Entertainer, Business Man Merv Griffin Dies at 82



Merv Griffin, the worldwide renowned entertainer who turned into an impresario and parlayed his "Jeopardy" and "Wheel of Fortune" game shows into a multimillion dollar empire, has died at the age of 82.
He died of prostate cancer, according to a spokeswoman.

"From his beginning as a $100-a-week San Francisco, California, radio singer, Griffin moved on as vocalist for Freddy Martin's band, sometime film actor and TV game and talk show host. His "The Merv Griffin Show" lasted more than 20 years, and Griffin said his capacity to listen contributed to his success."

After he invented the famous "Jeopardy" and "Wheel of Fortune", he sold the rights to the Columbia Pictures Television Unit for $250m which is where his fortune started from.

He also made it into Forbes' list of richest Americans and later on went into real estate business as "I was never bored of life" - he says.

Top 5 Most Outrageous Celebrity Purchases

I'll go straight to the point- here I found a list of the top most weird, unjustified and arguably silly purchases.

Tom Cruise's new Mansion: After welcoming baby Suri into the beautiful, albeit unusual world of Tom and Katie, the movie star legend decided that his rented LA pad wasn�t fit for Hollywood royalty. Earlier this spring, TomKat purchased a seven-bedroom mansion in Beverly Hills for a whopping $30.5 million.


David and Victoria Beckham's New Beverly Hills Mansion: For neighbours, they have the newly wed Tom and Katie. The soccer star acquisitioned a six-bedroom Italian estate in Beverly Hills. The mansion has 6 fireplaces, 9 bathrooms and a swimming pool.


Beyonce's Expensive Leggings: When she performed a rousing rendition of "Get Me Bodied" at the 2007 BET Awards, the singer arrived in a gold space outfit, with letters spelling Beyonce on the background. As you can see in the photos, she then stripped off her space gear, revealing her $100,000 gold Balenciaga leggings and a matching bra top ! One hundred thousand dollars, wow, some people seriously lack inspiration as to what to do with their money.
But spend them on a pair of leggings..




Victoria Beckham�s New Bentley: This was a gift from Tom Cruise, the Beckham's new neighbour. It arrived at their LA home complete with monogrammed rims, elegantly scripted in Mrs. Beckham's famous initials "VB". The Bentley reportedly costed Tom Cruise $250,000 and is what a welcome gift; it would make anyone's day anyday.



Elizabeth Hurley�s cancelled wedding reception: The British Supermodel and Actress, Elizabeth Hurley expected to be welcomed into her new Hindu Family after marrying her Indian boyfriend, Arun Nayar. However, once everyone's champagne has cleared up their heads, the new in-laws decided to disown their son and his new bride for ostentatious displays of tacky commercialism, and thus cancelled their final wedding reception, which cost nearly $60,000. What a wedding !

Paris Hilton in LA without Her Bra On




Ms Hilton was once again attempted to redeem her reputation by attracting even more attention; same path Lindsay and Britney had followed.

For example she showed up in the middle of L.A. yesterday without her bra on! (only her top obviously). Can you believe that? She must think anything is better than people imagining her in jail.

Paris Hilton Sentenced to 45 Days in Jail


A judge sentenced Paris Hilton to 45 days in county jail Friday for violating her probation, putting the brakes on the hotel heiress's famous high life. She must go to jail by June 5th.
There are also rumours that she will only server 23 days in jail because of a state jail policy encouraging good inmate behavior.

The probation history violated is as follows:
Hilton was arrested and charged with DUI with a border line blood alcohol content of 0.08 in September 2006. Then she was placed on 36 months' probation and had to pay fines of $1,500. In March this year, the Los Angeles City's Attorney's Office claimed that she violated the terms of her probation by speeding without her headlights on, driving with a suspended license, and failing to enroll in a court-ordered alcohol education program
