American reality TV personality Stephanie Pratt has revealed what led her to drastic weight loss. The 23-year-old Hills star blamed 6 months of being low for her shocking shrunken size. “It was 6 months of hating life!

What did I do to attract this?’,” she added.... details >>>

Stephen Gately, the Boyzone singer who died in October, was among the fastest rising search topics on Google’’s UK site in 2009.
