New
York: Elizabeth Taylor has revealed that she is suffering
from congestive heart failure and spine disease scoliosis,
but is not afraid of dying. The 'Cleopatra' star, who underwent
a major spine surgery last month, says she is ready to meet
her "maker". "I'm not worried about dying. I consult with
God, my maker. And I don't have a lot of problems to work
out. I'm pretty squared anyway," America's W magazine quoted
her as saying. The veteran actress revealed that she is
in constant pain as the scoliosis has left her body bent,
making it almost impossible for her to walk. She also experiences
breathing difficulties due to her heart problems. "I was
born with scoliosis, but it has finally caught up with me.
My body's a real mess. If you look at it in the mirror,
it's just completely convex and concave. I've become one
of those poor little women who's bent sideways. My X-rays
are hysterical. The bone doctors just throw up their hands
and say, 'Sorry, there's nothing we can do!' Which is so
cheery," she added.

London:
Jennifer Lopez's physical assets seem to be causing
a lot of trouble it seems, for filming of a new Pepsi commercial
had to be halted because her behind was allegedly too big
for her outfit. According to Femalefirst, producers of the
advert starring Beyonce Knowles and David Beckham were stunned
to realise that she couldn't fit into the skin-tight leather
costume they had provided her. So shooting had to be stopped
while frantic staff stitched an extra piece of material
to help cover her bum. "It was quite comical, really. There
were all these people ready to get on with the work when
we realised there was a problem. Basically, J.Lo's bum was
just too curvy for the outfit and we had to make sure the
costume fitted her before we could start filming," an insider
was quoted as saying .
