Dishwalla lyrics | Somewhere in the middle lryics and vedio
Lryics goes here..
I was out the other day
and I saw you in your big black car
and I was waving as you were passing
cause I know who you are
you had this look that of an angel
it was such a bad disguise
did you think for second I would not realize
tripping hard falling down onto the ground
cause I can't stand up
and I can't fall down
cause I'm somewhere in the middle of this
I was out the other night
and I saw you so we had a fight
it was late and I was lonely
and its such a long way home
so I asked you if you'd join me
for a single last call drink
so you turned and bought us 2
and you didn't even blink
you had this look that of an angel
it was such a bad disguise
when you drink it makes you angry
when I drink I want you more and more and more
tripping hard falling down onto the ground
cause I can't stand up
and I can't fall down
and I'm somewhere in the middle of this
well I find it hard
I always tried to find the sane life
but I don't like the way things are
and I keep falling to my knees
somewhere in the middle of this

Tim Gunn on Superhero Fashion Trends
ashion Face-Off: Blake Lively vs. Beyonce
Blake Lively vs. Beyonce. Gossip Girl vs. Sasha Fierce. It's a fashion face-off for the ages ... or at least a Tuesday morning in March. But a hot morning now!
The Gossip Girl cast member got a leg up a lacey Dolce & Gabbana dress at a recent premiere, while Beyonce took the same one to the stage just last week.
Nope, she's not pregnant. Beyonce, that is. Neither is Blake, but she wasn't the subject of such rumors for the past week and a half. Nope, no baby bump.
Anyway, who looked more fantastic in the frock? Vote below!
This dress is totally hotter on ...
eggie Bush Denies Cheating on Kim Kardashian; Couple Reportedly "Not Over Yet"
Are Kim Kardashian and Reggie Bush not actually broken up - or at least on the cusp of a reconciliation? You bet, according to a source claiming: "It's not over yet!"
Of course, this source has no name and is quoted by Radar Online, reigning celebrity gossip kings of vague "exclusives" that are impossible to prove or disprove.
However, it does coincide with other reports that suggest whatever broke the couple up might be repaired in the near future. "They are not done," the source said.
"They have problems but they still love each other. I won't be surprised to see these two get back together in a few weeks." Or if they don't ... it's open-ended.
If they do patch things up, however, it's all on #25. "Reggie is going to have to make the first move," the source predicted. "She will wait and he will come."
That was also the tagline of the Ray J sex tape. Sorry. Not really.
Will Reggie and Kim be back together soon? Are they even apart?
Kim's former New Orleans Saint was embroiled in an alleged cheating scandal early last week after being linked to blonde January Gessert, despite the fact that:
- January is actually dating his friend, his rep says
- He and Kim were already broken up supposedly
Gessert reportedly stayed at his house (with the friend, his rep says) after they met at Sunset Strip bar Red Rock, sparking gossip that Reggie cheated with her.
Reggie personally took to his Twitter to protest his innocence and deny any cheating, writing: "Clarification 4 the dummies aka the media, January is a long time friend of mine & has been dating my best friend for 6 months. Sorry! Lol!"
LOL, indeed. According to a close confidant, that Tweet "was meant for Kim more than anyone." If that were true, wouldn't he just text or email her? Just asking.
Speaking of Twitter, Kim Kardashian posted a couple of (what else) Kim Kardashian pictures from this past weekend. There is cleavage showing. Click to enlarge:
Carrie Prejean Sued For Stiffing PR Firm
It seems like a year ago that Carrie Prejean found herself in hot water for comments she made regarding her opposition to gay marriage at the Miss USA pageant.
That's because it was a year ago, and what a year it's been for the hypocrite since, getting engaged to Kyle Boller and stripped of clothes and a Miss California title.
As much as we'd like to forget Carrie Prejean even exists, not everyone is willing to. Particularly not the PR firm that would like to get paid for services rendered.
One of the tamer Carrie Prejean pictures out there.
Prejean hired A. Larry Ross Communications, which billed over $64,000, last year to help with image and public relations consulting after her gay marriage mess.
She has yet to pay the bill.
Consequently, the PR firm has filed suit against the painful Prejean looking for their money. We'd love to say there's no way she could talk her way out of this, but this is Carrie Prejean. Consider who you're dealing with for a moment:
Hot Priyanka Chopra to visit Brazil for the shooting of Fear Factor
Priyanka Chopra would be shooting in Brazil for Fear Factor. She has never visited that part of the world. And she’s all set to leave in July.
Says Priyanka excitedly, “I’m looking forward to shooting the show there. I haven’t seen Brazil. So July onwards I’m going to be basking in Brazilian territory.”
Says Priyanka, “I was getting a lot of television offers for the last couple of years. But the amount of time that those shows required didn’t suit me. Besides nothing excited me. Fear Factor is one of my favourite shows . And it goes with my personality. I’m sporty and spontaneous. The channel didn’t have to convince me much. The pay-cheque? Ah,let’s say it’s the cherry on the icing.”
Priyanka says she will be more than up to cracking what’s seen to be a male domain. “Just because I’m a girl it shouldn’t be presumed that I can’t enter the boys’ territory. I’d do the stunts better than the boys.And cricketers are people I’m very cool with. Not that I know the cricket world that well.It will be great getting to know them.”
Priyanka has her own stunts planned for Fear Factor. “All I can tell you is that the stunts this year are going to be bigger and scarier than they were on the show last year. Now we’ve male contestants instead of female and I’ve to match up to them.”
Priyanka has just returned from two months in the US shooting for Anjaana Anjaani. “It was great shooting with Ranbir. It was a fun film. I enjoyed that space after doing soul-sapping parts. We’ve captured the US like never before.”
Priyanka shoots down rumours regarding Ranbir and she. “I don’t want to react to link ups. When there’s something I’ll react to, I will. Ranbir and I got along very well. He’s good actor and a lovely person.”
Co-stars are not Priyanka’s top priority. “It has to be the part that excites me. That’s most important. Then the set-up and finally the co-actor. So far I’ve been lucky. The parts that are coming to me are wonderful. It’s very difficult for me to pick and choose from the ones offered. I’m really grateful to directors who see me as capable of carrying off these parts.”
Talking on her passion for tweeting Priyanka says, “I write directly to people.Not just about my films, but also about my thoughts and feelings. People like that. I get great opinions on me as an actor and a person. Otherwise actors end up only having sycophants around them . I like having people around me who keep me grounded.”
In San Francisco Priyanka visited the Twitter headquarters. “They invited me. I was very excited to go. They were all open to ideas and exchange of thoughts. It was a nice interactive session . Am I looking at extending myself beyond acting? Well I’m an actor right now. I don’t plan too much ahead. Whenever I do, God makes other, better plans for me. I do have facets to my personality that I’m discovering all the time. For me even getting to know the actor in me was a learning experience. I got to learn on the job .I’ve fallen hurt myself got up battered and bruised and moved on.”
Priyanka is also looking forward to the stunts in Don 2. “But they won’t be an extension of my stunts on Fear Factor. Fear Factor will be ME . For the first time people will see the real me.The real personality coming through.And that’s what I fear in Fear Factor.Not the stunts. I’ve always done outdoor stunts whether it’s bungee jumping or mountain climbing. I’ve an affinity to danger.”
As for Saat Khoon Maaf Priyanka says, “I accepted it for Vishal Bhardawaj. It’s a role of a lifetime. And he has the confidence in me.I just plan to walk through the role in Vishal Sir’s feet. And I’ve seven different looks for the role. The people who did the makeup in The Pirates Of The Caribbean are coming down formy looks.Yes I’ve already worked out a different looks for each segment.”
Priyanka is satisfied with her career. “I work very hard and then I leave it to God. When I went up to the President to get my National award I was choked with emotions. It was such an overwhelming experience when I was told I was one of the youngest to win in the adult category. I cried when I walked off the stage. I’m glad the jury could see my performance in Fashion in spite of the glamour and gave me the award out of all the wonderful performances during the year.
Priyanka’s father released his devotional album on Saturday. “We collaborated on his shabd kirtan album with a save-the-girlchild campaign . The girl-child is a very important issue for me.”
Sexy Katrina Kaif works hard
Katrina Kaif is undergoing a transformation for her role as an item girl in Farah Khan’s Tees Maar Khan. She is slowly turning aggressive and loud.
She has made sure her manner turns loud even when it’s 5am in the morning. She is also making an effort to look strikingly different in each of the item songs, which Farah and her assistant, Gita, have choreographed.
To get her character’s look right, Katrina has been shopping for clothes and accessories herself. She has been visiting small shops that sell cheap stuff to give her character an authentic look. She feels that it’s a bit of a challenge to do a complete look but working in Rajneeti has taught her that every accessory brings the character in.
The actress has also been brushing up her knowledge on Bollywood’s item girls by going through some of the popular item numbers like Mumtaz’s Tik tiki mera dil bole from Humjoli (1970) and Bipasha Basu’s Beedi from Omkara (2006).
Akshay Kumar, Katrina’s co-star on Tees Maar Khan has been advising her to just go wild when dancing on camera as it will help her character.
Arshad and I didn’t want anything gimmicky for HTAG promotion” – Dia Mirza
“Not at all”, promptly says Dia, “See, it’s the first visual of the film that tells you everything. Forget the promo, I am just talking about a simple still or a standee here. Hats off to people who have designed the look because it has created just the right impact. In fact do you know that we didn’t even do any special photo shoot campaign for any of the posters or standees? We primarily used stills from the film.”
Why was that so?
“I guess this was a very wise decision made by Arshad. He said that an additional photo shoot wouldn’t have made the kind of impact as the real moments from the film would. He wanted the candid moments from the film to go on the billboards so that people relate to that better. They pretty much give you the real essence of the film. When you see that image, it brings to fore an intrinsic warmth factor. Arshad was sure about the fact that he didn’t want anything to look contrived”, details Dia.
May actors may have wanted their films to be backed by a specially designed promotional campaign. Did Dia consent immediately due to a great comfort on the personal level that she shares with Arshad?
“See, our association has been very straight forward”, agrees Dia, “We talk what we believe in and don’t hesitate in sharing that with each other. Like for example, he may not have gone out of the way to create a mad hysteria for the film by means of marketing. But that’s because there is nothing that should be done as a gimmick to promote your film. Both he and I are true believer in the saying that if a story is sincere and if it is narrated sincerely, then everything just falls in.”
Music Review:Love Sex Aur Dhokha (2010)
Artists: Kailash Kher, Sneha Khanwalkar, Nihira Joshi, Amey Date
Music-Composers: Sneha Khanwalkar
Lyricist: Dibakar Bannerjee
Label: Sony Music
Genre: Bollywood
Rating: **
March 29, 2010 (Sampurn Wire):The question that comes to mind on picking up this album – ‘Now what exactly is the kind of soundtrack which would be there in the offering from an album which has a title like ‘Love Sex Aur Dhokha’?’ However, this is where one remembers that one had similar questions from Dibakar’s first two films ‘Khosla Ka Ghosla’ and ‘Oye Lucky Lucky Oye’ as well. While the title song of the latter became a rage, ‘Chak De Phatte’ from the former is being played on till date. No wonder, one begins to expect something good from this Sneha Khanwalkar soundtrack as well which has lyrics by Banerjee himself.
There is no surprise in store at the very beginning with ‘LSD Title Track’ marking a tremendous kick start to the album. If you have been hooked to music channels for last three weeks, it is near impossible that you would have missed out on the eye catchy music video which has been made around this Kailash Kher track. An instantly catchy number that sets your feet tapping right from the word Go, it makes one remember the times from the era gone by when the word ’sexy’ had to be erased and replaced with ‘baby’ in the Karisma Kapoor dance number ‘Sexy Sexy Sexy Mujhe Log Bole’ (Khuddaar). How times have changed, isn’t it?
It’s time for some more ‘Oye Lucky Lucky Oye’ mood and setting with Kailash Kher getting the Punjabi mood on with ‘Tainu TV Per Wekhya’. A situational track which didn’t really see much publicity coming it’s way, ‘Tainu TV…’ talks a dig on entertainment channels, media, TRPs etc. etc. The number that follows next, ‘I Can’t Hold It’, may seem like a Western dance/seductive number from the title. However, that’s not the case to be as instead, a listener is transported to Rajasthani milieu with the song taking a parody route. Crooned by Sneha, ‘I Can’t Hold It’ has a strange mix of sounds and is more comic rather than seductive in it’s presentation.
However, what is not really strange is ‘Mohabbat Bollywood Style’ which is presented as a tribiute to the maker of mushy romantic family entertainers Aditya Chopra. Everything from the composition to lyrics to rendition by Nihira Joshi and Amey Date is focused on one single aspect – Come up with a track which definitely pays homage to the genre enriched by the Chopras but in the meanwhile also bring in a parody touch to the overall composition. This is pretty much visible in the way violins, dhol beats, chorus effect and the overall writing, singing and composing style come into play.
The song that follows is strange though because just like ‘I Can’t Hold It’, even ‘Tu Gandi’ is an item number though presented differently from the songs belonging to its genre. Yet another Kailash Kher solo, it is pretty much a drag and while at places it does come close to many a Feroz Khan numbers that one evidenced in the 70s, the final effect just doesn’t bear similar charm. The album concludes with a couple of bonus tracks from Kailash Kher’s private album ‘Kailasa’ – ‘Na Batati Tu’ and ‘Tauba Tauba’.
Overall, though ‘Love Sex Aur Dhokha’ doesn’t cover a distance similar to that of ‘Oye Lucky Lucky Oye’, it has a much bigger single in the form of the title track ‘Love Sex Aur Dhokha’ which makes all the difference.Dishwalla lyrics | Every Little Thing lryics and video

Let me in
to see you in the morning light
to get me on and all along the tears they come
see all come
I want you to believe in life
but I get the strangest feeling that you've gone away
will you find out who you are too late to change?
I wish I could be
every little thing you wanted
all the time
I wish I could be
every little thing you wanted
all the time
some times
lift me up
just lift me up don't make a sound
and let me hold you up before you hit the Ground
see all come
you say your all right
but I get the strangest feeling
that you've gone away- you've gone away
and will you find out who you are too late to change?
I wish I could be
every little thing you wanted
all the time
I wish I could be
every little thing you wanted
all the time
some times
Don't give me up
don't give me up tonight
or soon nothing will be right at all
salvation
will you find out who you are too late to change?
I wish I could be
every little thing you wanted

Salman Khan is interested in working with Deepika Padukone
Now that gossip columns are going red with the rumors of Ranbir Kapoor seeing Salman’s girl Katrina Kaif, Salman seems to be more eager than ever to work with Ranbir’s ex-flame Deepika Padukone. Trade sources say that director Anees Bazmee will cast the two as the leading pair in his next project. Where Deepika said that she is unaware of these reports, sources close to Salman say that this is a definite and immediate possibility because “Bhai wants to do a movie with Deepika.”
Whether the two will get an opportunity to display sparking on-screen chemistry, only time will tell.
Lindsay Lohan is Going to Die
If you had Lindsay Lohan in your celebrity death pool for 2010, the people close to her think it might have been a smart wager ... not that they want you to win.
Sources connected to the train wreck believe that she desperately needs to get help, but she refuses to listen. As one extremely close professional person put it:
"If she doesn't get help soon, she's going to die."
People trying to help Lindsay over the last year both professionally and personally feel something terrible will happen unless the celeb immediately gets help.
She promised mayhem in 2010 and is delivering. But will she even be around to see 2011? The way things have been going lately, we'd say 70-30 at best ...
Down goes Lindsay ... in every way. [Photo: PacificCoastNewsOnline.com]
Help for substance abuse, that is. We are not talking about Michael or Dina Lohan, either. Lord knows those two losers are only interested in their own agendas.
These ominous warnings come from people who care and have seriously, albeit quietly tried to convince Lindsay to go to rehab. So far, they haven't succeeded.
In typical fashion, Lindsay Lohan has reportedly been making excuses for her erratic behavior and though she admits she has issues, refuses to do $h!t about it.
After falling after leaving a party (above), she Tweeted, "Only I would get pushed into a large, sharp plant by crazy paparazzi! I need to start wearing flats :/"
And laying off the crack.
