When

LONDON - Pop legend Michael Jackson's producer Quincy Jones has claimed that the singer lied about his skin condition and just "didn't want to be black".

TRENTON, N.J. - He was born on the Fourth of July, an irony he would only appreciate later, during the dark period of his life, when liberty and freedom became far more than mere words in his high school history book.

Pitter-patter raindrops falling from the sky, Diana takes no umbrella to keep her safe and dry.

WASHINGTON - Film producer Kirk Douglas has expressed grief over the death of Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett, and also said that it reminded him of his son Eric who died at the age of 46.

DALLAS - Marc Colombo lowers his bald head and leans his sweaty, 6-foot-8, 318-pound frame toward the microphone, growling to the crowd that the next song will "rip your face off." The sometimes scary stage presence of the heavily tattooed guitarist and singer, who is one of three Dallas Cowboys offensive linemen in the heavy metal band Free Reign, is a thing of beauty for the head of the recording company that just signed them.
