Pepsi is going on a reunion tour with The King of Pop. The Purchase, N.Y.-based PepsiCo Inc. is today announcing its deal with the estate of Michael Jackson to use the late pop star’s image for its new global marketing blitz. The nature of the promotion will vary by country, but will include a TV ad, special edition cans bearing Jackson’s image and chances to download remixes of some of Jackson’s most famous songs. Pepsi, which first partnered with Jackson in 1983, did not disclose the terms of its deal with the singer’s estate. The promotion is part of a global marketing blitz planned for the year ahead by Pepsi, which is looking to revive its brand and win back market share from The Coca-Cola Co. 

The only thing more offensive than the language that spewed from the crowd at Madison Square Garden on Thursday night was the form of basketball those angry fans had to witness. The Heat played like a team that knew the series was already over. There wasn’t much energy or effort beyond LeBron James and Dwyane Wade, which left Miami vulnerable for the first time this postseason. But the Knicks just didn’t have enough to make this first round even slightly interesting. And so, the Heat had seven more turnovers than assists, shot just 42.6 percent but still defeated the Knicks 87-70 in Game 3 of this first-round series.

Friends,

On May 2, 2012 I  joined a group of fellow Miami Police Officers and ride from Miami to Orlando (240 miles) on bicycles to benefit 9 year old Angelyn Gutierrez. Angelyn suffers from Cerebral Palsy and due to financial hardships, does not have suitable transportation.Our goal is to raise $35,000 to buy her a new special needs van which will help her become more independent. We are looking for sponsors to help us reach our goal. 100% of the proceeds will go towards the purchase of Angelyn’s van. To donate visit: www.gofundme.com/copsforangelyn Any amount will help us get closer to our goal! If you are in media, Angelyn and her mother are available for interviews. Our team which trains weekly is also available should you want to cover our progress. Thank you, Enrique Santos

Austria es uno de los mejores países del mundo para hacer ski y acaba de despedirse de la temporada para practicar ese deporte. Pero que el invierno esté terminando no significa que sea hora de los bikinis, bronceadores y tragos en la arena. El frío todavía está presente y si no quieres congelarte más vale que te adaptes a la moda. Todo esto para explicar la elección de un traje de una sola pieza de Mariah Carey. Chaqueta sintética negra, guantes que dejaban los dedos libres y un conjunto rojo ajustado… Bastante ajustado. La cantante causó revuelo en la prensa local tras mostrarse con unos pantalones que resaltaban su anatomía. ¿Lo habrá notado? Lo cierto es que Mariah fue contratada para cantar en el cierre de la temporada de ski austríaca y hasta Europa viajó dispuesta a entretener a su audiencia. Al parecer, sus canciones no fueron lo único que mantuvo atento al público. La entrepierna de Carey se marcó más de lo debido generando todo tipo de opiniones en la prensa local… EOline

Todos saben que las mujeres latinas son las más hermosas del mundo. Tanto que incluso cuando no se trata de un ranking exclusivo de femmes fatales de estas tierras, de todas formas consiguen destacarse. ¿Pero qué hay de los hombres? Pues también los hay guapos, y mucho. Para celebrar la sensualidad latina, la revista People en su edición en español realizó su lista de las 50 personas, hombres y mujeres, más bellas de 2012. El listado colocó a Thalia como la persona con más apariciones. En total son nueve las veces en las que la actriz y cantante mexicana fue seleccionada. Además de otros que suelen destacarse, como el siempre sexy David Zepeda, el ídolo Ricky Martin, la chispeante Sofía Vergara, Salma Hayek o Penélope Cruz, hay unos debutantes. La voz dominicana Edward el Cata Bello y el español Pablo Alborán, cantante de tan sólo 22 años, el mismo que actuó con Demi Lovato en la pasada gala de los Grammys Latinos. Quién no podía faltar es el cubano William Levy que además de ser súper apuesto, está teniendo mucho éxito en el mercado estadounidense con sus bailes en Dancing with the Stars. Aquí tienes la lista completa que elaboró la revista People Español. ¿A quién sacarías y a quién pondríanos? Envíanos tu comentario.

It’s the stuff of nightmares – and it was sold for $119,922,500 million. Edvard Munch’s impressionist masterpiece, The Scream, was put up for auction at Sotheby’s in New York City this evening and was sold for a record-breaking price. Mr Munch beat out Pablo Picasso for the most expensive artwork ever auctioned. Norwegian businessman Petter Olsen, whose father Thomas was a friend, neighbor and patron of Mr Munch, sold the 1895 icon to fund a new museum in honor of Mr Munch’s life and work. Everyone from Andy Warhol to the creators of The Simpsons have paid homage to the defining painting of human angst. Sotheby’s expected the price to exceed $80 million, but $119 million beat out everyone’s wildest expectations. Mr Picasso’s ‘Nude, Green Leaves, and Bust‘was sold by Christie’s in 2010 for just $106.5 million. The auction asking price started at $50 million for the work and lasted just 15 minutes before an unnamed telephone bidder gave the final offer. The auction room at Sotheby’s exploded in applause. ‘I have lived with this work all of my life, and its power and energy have only increased with time,’ owner Petter Olsen said of The Scream. ‘Now however, I feel the moment has come to offer the rest of the world a chance to own and appreciate this remarkable work.’

Newt Gingrich has finally called a halt to what he described as ‘a truly wild ride’ that he hoped would end with him in the White House, pledging to help defeat President Barack Obama but stopping short of endorsing Mitt Romney. In a rambling speech in a hotel meeting room crammed with reporters and aides but few if any members of the public, the former Speaker of the House of Representative said his campaign had been ‘amazing and astonishing’ but would now be suspended.

Putting a bag in the overhead bin will soon cost some Spirit Airlines passengers $100, which is more than they may have paid for their flight. The Miramar, Florida, airline currently charges $45 at the gate for a carry-on bag. As of November 6, just days before Thanksgiving,customers who wait to pay the carry-on baggage fee at the boarding gate will have to fork over $100. Any bag that needs to fit in the overhead bin is considered a carry-on. Luckily, a small bag that fits under the seat is still free. The price for a carry-on bought at an airport kiosk will increase to $50 from $40. Larger pieces of luggage checked at the airport will cost between $8 and $10 more, while the fee for bags checked online will rise by between $2 and $5. Spirit will also increase a handful of other fees by between $2 and $10. Spirit is one of two airlines that charge for carry-ons; Allegiant is the other.
