Madonna - Madonna Launching Global Fashion Brand

Madonna is hoping to channel her chart success into a global brand.

The pop superstar is one of the most famous women on the planet, but she has refused to capitalise on her name through clothing, fragrances and accessories - until now.

Madonna launched teen line Material Girl with daughter Lourdes last year (10), and now she has announced plans to create a business empire called Truth or Dare - the name of her candid 1991 documentary.

The brand will incorporate fashion, scents, handbags and lingerie and it is set to hit stores across the U.S. and then the world next year (12).

Madonna says, "Over the past several decades, I have been approached countless times to create my own brand. The timing is right." Source

Cher's Medical Referral Saved Best Friend's Life

Pop icon Cher helped save her best friend's life after she suffered a seizure at the Believe singer's home.

Choreographer Doriana Sanchez slipped and fell onstage while working with Cher during her recent Las Vegas residency, but it wasn't until she passed out at the singer's house that she realised something was terribly wrong.

She agreed to take a private plane to Los Angeles and meet Cher's personal medic, neurosurgeon Dr. Neil Martin at the Ucla hospital - and it was only then that the dancer learned her health woes were much worse than she had anticipated.

She tells America's Star magazine, "As the months went by, it got worse. I started losing the use of my whole left side. Cher told me she wanted me to see her spine specialist."

Dr. Martin diagnosed Sanchez with a brain tumour and she underwent surgery to remove the mass.

The choreographer insists she owes her life to her friend.

She says, "Before surgery, we did our secret prayer that we do before Cher's shows... Cher was by my side the whole time. I wouldn't be here without her."

The pop superstar's Cher at the Colosseum gigs drew to a close in February (11) after three years. Source
