Hypnotist Paul McKenna is entranced by Michael Jackson's £19m mansion
0 comments Posted by st at 10:06 PMBy Ben Todd
Ideal home: Paul McKenna arrives for a viewing at the house owned by the late Michael Jackson
He has become a household name with self-help books including the best-selling I Can Make You Rich.
And Paul McKenna's formula certainly seems to have worked for him.
It emerged last night that the television hypnotist is considering paying £19million for the Los Angeles home where Michael Jackson spent his final days
The 46-year-old, who started out as a radio DJ and went on to become Britain's most successful non-fiction author, viewed the house on Monday and is said to be 'very interested'.
It is his success in the U.S. - including a new TV deal - that has prompted him to consider splashing out the huge sum.
A friend of the star said: 'Paul was blown away by the sheer elegance of the property. It is one of the classiest houses in LA. It has the most incredible design - none of the gaucheness that LA homes often have.'
Another friend revealed: 'Paul is looking for a larger house. He has made Los Angeles his home and with his new TV series and book deal, he thinks this would be the ideal next step.'
Elegant: The home is described as 'one of the classiest houses in LA'
The palatial mansion became infamous when Jackson collapsed there hours before he died in June last year. He had been paying £60,000 a month to rent the property from its owner, the manufacturing mogul Hubert Guez, who has put it on the market for £18.9million.
Built in 2002, the 17,171 sq ft seven-bedroom house sits in 1.26 acres in the exclusive Holmby Hills area.
The estate is gated and heavily fortified and there is underground parking for seven cars. Other features include 12 fireplaces, 13 bathrooms, a library, home cinema and a wine cellar. There is also an outdoor heated swimming pool and a separate guest house.
McKenna, who is single, currently lives in a £3.4million house in West Hollywood Hills. His new TV deal sees him team with American Idol presenter Ryan Seacrest for a series called The Incurables.
Death: Michael Jackson collapsed at the mansion last year
In it, McKenna will try to help people with serious mental or physical disorders, including a man with Tourette's syndrome and a woman who eats her own hair.
The Incurables is McKenna's second U.S. series and will be shown on Manhattan-based cable channel A&E.
His previous show, I Can Make You Thin, became one of Discovery Channel's highest-rated shows of 2008, securing McKenna a two-year 'golden handcuffs' deal reported to be worth £15million.
The Daily Mail has also learned that McKenna has signed a £ 3million publishing deal with Sterling books. 'The book deal shows just how the U.S. has fallen in love with Paul,' a friend said. In recent years, a host of U.S. celebrities have credited McKenna with helping them.
Chat-show hostess Ellen DeGeneres cried as she told how the hypnotist helped her quit smoking.
The celebrity lifestyle is a far cry from the star's beginnings as the son of a builder and teacher in Enfield, North London. It was as a DJ for Bedfordshire-based Chiltern Radio that he interviewed a hypnotist, becoming so intrigued that he began studying the subject.

Robert Pattinson out after Twilight with a blonde cougar (but don't worry Kristen, it's his publicist)
0 comments Posted by st at 6:12 AMBy Mailonline Reporter+1.JPG)
Night on the town: A dressed down Robert Pattinson hit up Hollywood last night with a blonde on his arm - his publicist, Stephanie Ritz
Robert Pattinson hit up the Hollywood party scene last night with an attractive older blonde on his arm.
But girlfriend Kristen Stewart need not lose any sleep, Pattinson was just enjoying a night out with his publicist, Stephanie Ritz.
The two stopped by the Soho House before joining the rest of the Hollywood elite at Jimmy Fallon's post Emmy party at Trousdale.
Pattinson was dressed casually in jeans and a T-shirt, with a baseball cap pulled down low. The Twilight star was also sporting a big bushy beard.
Pattinson and Stewart met on the set of the first Twilight film. Their on-set chemistry was palpable and immediately sparked rumours of an off-set romance between the two.
The couple kept the public guessing, until Pattinson finally confirmed that he was in fact dating his leading lady.
The 24-year-old actor put an end to the months of speculation at the BAFTA Awards in London back in February.

Real life love: After months of rumour and speculation Pattinson finally confessed in February to dating his Twilight co-star, Kristen Stewart
'It is extremely difficult but we are together, yes,' Patinson confessed to The Sun. 'We can't arrive at the same time because of the fans. It goes crazy.
'This was supposed to be a public appearance as a couple, but it's impossible. We are here together and it's a public event, but it's not easy.
'We have to do all this stuff to avoid attention.'
Pattinson's big breakthrough role was when he played Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
But he shot to superstardom as angst-ridden vampire Edward Cullen in the Twilight Saga.

Hard at work: Pattinson has been filming Water For Elephants with Reese Witherspoon. The actor plays Jacob Jankowski, a veterinary trainer that throws it all in and runs away to join the circus
Pattinson's career is red hot right now.
Earlier this year, The Sunday Times Rich List put him on its 'list of young millionaires' in the UK, worth £13 million.
And in June 2010, Pattinson was ranked number 50 by Forbes Magazine's most powerful celebrity in the world list with earnings of $17 million.
Pattinson has recently been filming Water For Elephants which he will star in opposite Oscar winner Reese Witherspoon.
He plays Jacob Jankowski, a veterinary student who throws it all in and runs off and joins the circus. Once there he falls in love with the elephant trainer's wife, played by Witherspoon.

Superstar: Pattinson became a household name after his portrayal of angst-ridden vampire Edward Cullen in the Twilight Saga movie franchise
Pattinson is next scheduled to start filming on the last Twilight movie, Breaking Dawn, which will be split into two parts and released over two years.
However, the movie may be delayed due to violence in Rio De Janeiro, in Brazil, where filming is due to occur.
A spokesman for film company Summit, told U.S. website, RadarOnline: 'The possibility of filming portions of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2 in Brazil has always been under consideration and we are continuing to scout locations within the country.'
Breaking Dawn- Part 1 is currently set to be released in November 2011 with Part 2 out in November 2012.

Not amused: Simon Cowell was woken by drunken X Factor contestants who ruined his rented villa in Marbella, Spain
Rowdy X Factor contestants have ruined Simon Cowell's rented luxury villa in Spain.
He was left furious after they caused thousands of pounds worth of damage and drank his vintage champagne and imported beer.
The 50-year-old is staying in a 20-bedroom villa in Marbella, where he is 'mentoring' this year's X Factor hopefuls.
The property - which also boasts three pools, a cinema and a gym - costs Cowell £15,000 a day.
But problems started on Sunday night when contestants raided his drinks bar and finished his champagne and Sapporo beer that he had flown in from Japan.
Afterwards they swam in the sea and then stumbled back to their rooms, trampling over furniture and wrecking a £5,000 Persian rug. Antique and designer furniture was covered in sand and stained by sea water.
A show source said: 'It was chaos. It is thousands of pounds of damage. They were just very excited and things got out of hand.'
Cowell was woken up by the partying into the early hours. He said yesterday: 'Yes they did wake me up.
'Any damage will have to be paid out of their first royalty cheque if they make it - to teach them a lesson.'
Cowell also spoke about controversies hitting the show including his decision to ban auto tune and the expulsion of Shirlena Johnson.
The first episode of the new series featured a number of auditions where singers voices were adjusted to sound better than they actually were.
Possible reprieve: X Factor bosses are considering allowing Shirlena Johnson, pictured with her daughter, back on the show after she was dropped when fears arose about her health
Producers were accused of regularly using the technology but Cowell insisted it was only used in the 'extreme conditions' of the auditions where contestants brought poor quality backing tracks and the crowd noise could drown them out.
He confirmed the technology would not be used again, adding: 'And to say we were using it to cheat is nonsense.'
Cowell also said that axed contestant Shirlena Johnson may get a reprieve and a chance to come back on the show.
She was dropped from the series after a medical report and the show doctor said she may not be able to able to cope with the stress of the contest.
Trashed: Cowell's 20-bedroom villa in Marbella, which X Factor hopefuls who were staying there have ruined

Jhansi Ki Rani is the story of an ordinary girl who went on to become an extraordinary ruler. Her defiance against the British is exemplary even today. The fervor that she aroused gave birth to various leaders and revolutionaries who finally freed our nation from the British.
The show attempts to bring forth the various facets of this remarkable woman which are yet unknown to people. The Rani is shown as a mother, as a wife, as a daughter, as a warrior and essays all the roles with equal aplomb. The show is a tribute to her bravery, gallantry and patriotism....

My how they've grown! Marcia Cross' twin girls are growing up fast
0 comments Posted by st at 3:10 AMBy Mail Online Reporter
Mummy and me time: Marcia Cross went for a stroll around her Brentwood, CA neighbourhood yesterday with her 3-year-old twin girls, Eden and Savannagh
It seems like only yesterday that Marcia Cross announced she was pregnant with twins.
But her girls, Savannagh and Eden are already three years old, and they are becoming quite the little ladies!
Despite working a gruelling schedule on her hit show Desperate Housewives, Marcia Cross is a hands on mother, trying to spend as much time as possible with her daughters.
Doting: Cross is a hands on mother and tries to spend as much time as possible with her girls
Yesterday the 48-year-old went for a stroll in Brentwood, California with the girls and their nanny.
The girls, dressed in T-shirts and leggings and both wearing baseball caps, each pulled a red cart behind them as they walked around the neighbourhood.
The actress is obviously making the most of her time off before returning to work on Desperate Housewives.
Season seven of the hit series will see Marcia returning as Bree, but Kyle MacLachlan who played her on-screen husband, Orson Hodge, will not be returning to the show.
Vanessa Williams is joining the cast and she's guaranteed to make some waves.
According to the show's storyline, Vanessa will appear as Renee, a cougar whose marriage to a Major League baseball player is on the rocks.
Vanessa's character decides to go after Bree's younger beau, played by Brian Austin Green.
Pull along: Both Eden and Savannagh were pulling red cart behind them as they went on their walk
Marcia’s off-screen love life is decidedly less complicated - she's happily married to stock broker Tom Mahoney.
On January 20th 2009 it was announced that Mahoney had been diagnosed with cancer, but by the look of things he seems to be winning the battle appearing the picture of health nowadays.
Showing the side effects from his gruelling chemotherapy treatments Mahoney lost significant amounts of weight, as well as his hair throughout last year, but thankfully he's gained both back.
Back to health: Cross' husband Tom Mahoney appears to have won his battle with cancer, on August 21 he looked the picture of health as he walked with Cross in Santa Monica
When Mahoney was spotted walking in Santa Monica with Cross last week he looked the picture of health and appeared to be back to his pre-cancer days.
The couple married in June 2006 after dating for just six months.
Marcia has suffered her share of tragedy in her life -her long-term partner, actor Richard Jordan, died of a brain tumor in 1993.
Talking about his tragic death several years ago, Marcia said : "I thought life was passing me by and I was really just devastated about it. So the fact that my life sort of turned in the last two years is just a miracle to me."
On set: On Desperate Housewives Cross plays uptight Bree Hodges

Emmys 2010: Glee and Mad Men celebrate big wins, as autistic film Temple Grandin scoop the most awards
0 comments Posted by st at 2:28 AMBy Daily Mail Reporter
Triumphant: Glee's Sue Sylvester (left) picked up Best Supporting Actress gong and co-star Lea Michele missed out on a Lead Actress, but certainly won over fashion critics with her Oscar De La Renta dress
TV film Temple Grandin wins five gongs, including Best Actress in a TV movie for Claire Danes
Glee gets three trophies, but is beaten by Modern Family for Best Comedy
Mad Men gets two awards, with third win consecutive for Best Drama Series
They're two of the biggest shows on television right now, so it was no surprise to see Glee and Mad Men picking up a host of coveted awards at the Emmys last night.
Musical comedy Glee received three accolades at the Los Angeles ceremony, including Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy for Jane Lynch, for her performance as caustic coach Sue Sylvester.
The show also picked Best Director of a Comedy Series for creator Ryan Murphy, but missed out on the coveted Best Comedy gong to Modern Family.
Scroll down for full list of winners...
Thank you: Glee star Jane Lynch, in a one-shouldered Ali Rahimi gown, accepts the outstanding supporting actress in a comedy series award for her part as Sue Sylvester. The musical show won a total of three awards
The hugely popular musical show also received an award for Outstanding Guest Actor Neil Patrick Harris, who played Brian Ryan, Will Schuester's (Matthew Morrison) old high school glee club nemesis.
Mad Men made it a third consecutive win for the prestigious best drama series at last night's 62nd Annual Primetime Emmy Awards, with Erin Levy and Matthew Weiner also receiving a trophy for outstanding writing for the show, set in 1960s America.
But the bigger winner last night was TV film Temple Grandin, which led the haul with five gongs.

Honoured: Mad Men executive producer Matthew Weiner, centre right, accepts the award for outstanding drama series, making it a third consecutive win in that category for the drama set in 1960s America
The made-for-TV biopic stars Claire Danes as autistic animal scientist Temple Grandin who revolutionised practises for the humane handling of livestock on cattle ranches and slaughterhouses.
Danes won the gong for best actress in a TV movie, with the flick also being honoured in the category for best director (Mick Jackson), best movie, and nods for David Strathairn and Julia Ormond for their roles as supporting actor and actress.
The film debuted on HBO in February and received overwhelmingly positive reviews.

Dinner for three: Lynch is distracted by her Emmy as she dines with her wife Dr Lara Embry at the post-Emmy Governor's Ball
An emotional Temple Grandin, who was also celebrating her birthday, was there in person and appeared onstage with the cast as the film raked in its awards.
Mockumentary Modern Family was named Best Comedy, beating Glee, The Office, Curb Your Enthusiasm, 30 Rock and Nurse Jackie to the title.
To our fans, we are so grateful, we are so thrilled that families are sitting down together to watch a television show, and we're so happy that you have let us into your families,' said Steven Levitan, Modern Family executive producer.
Dapper: Mad Men stars Jon Hamm (far left), John Slattery (2nd right) and Robert Morse (far right) join producer Matthew Weiner backstage after winning Outstanding Drama Series
The best comedy series award was the first for the freshman sitcom, which also captured an acting award for Eric Stonestreet and a best writing trophy.
Mad Men's series creator Matthew Weiner seemed to take the night in his stride.
'I knew one day I would run somewhere and win a trophy,' Weiner joked earlier in the ceremony when he dashed to the stage to claim the Emmy for best drama series writing with Erin Levy.
Proud winners: Claire Danes in shimmering Armani Prive, poses with her award while, right, Julia Ormond shows off her gong for Best Supporting Actress in the film
Humbled: David Strathairn picked up the trophy for best supporting actor in Temple Grandin
Bryan Cranston's portrayal of a meth dealer in 'Breaking Bad' and Kyra Sedgwick's role as a brassy deputy police chief in 'The Closer' earned the pair top drama series acting awards.
Cranston's honor was his third trophy for playing a high school math teacher gone wrong, while his co-star, Aaron Paul, earned his first award as best supporting actor for playing his partner-in-crime.
'During the time it took me to walk up here, I venture there were 200 text messages to the other nominees saying, 'You were robbed.' I cannot argue with that,' Cranston said.
High praise: Weiner, flanked by January Jones, makes a speech as Mad Men writer Erin Levy holds her award for outstanding writing for a drama series for, the second award the show received
Archie Panjabi of 'The Good Wife' was honoured as best supporting actress in a drama for her part as a law-firm's in-house private investigator, as Emmy voters spread the riches widely among veterans and fresh faces.
Edie Falco of 'Nurse Jackie' and Jim Parsons of 'The Big Bang Theory' were honoured for their comedy series lead roles.
Falco's trophy for playing a tough but troubled nurse came after her hallmark turn as a mob boss' wife in 'The Sopranos,' for which she won three best drama actress Emmys.
Big winner: Autistic animal scientist Temple Grandin, left, hugs producer Emily Gerson after the biopic Temple Grandin won for outstanding made-for-television movie at the 62nd annual Primetime Emmy Awards last night
Biggest haul: The autistic film won a total of five awards, with Claire Danes, who plays Grandin, picking up the gong for best actress in a TV movie
'Oh, this is the most ridiculous thing that has ever, ever happened in the history of this lovely awards show. I'm not funny!' Falco said.
Parsons won for his portrayal of a scientist as nerdy as he is brilliant. He ended fellow nominee Alec Baldwin's two-year winning streak for '30 Rock' and beat out other heavyweights including Tony Shalhoub, nominated for the final season of 'Monk' and a three-time winner, and Steve Carell of 'The Office.'
'Now I know how much I didn't think this was going to happen. Some of you apparently voted for me. That was very sweet,' Parsons told the theatre audience.
Surprised: The cast of Modern Family beat Glee to get the trophy for outstanding comedy series, from left are presenter Ted Danson, Julie Bowen, Sarah Hyland, Sofia Vergara, Rico Rodriguez and Eric Stonestreet
Trio of fun: True Blood stars Alexander Skarsgard and newlywed real life couple Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer presented the award for best director for a TV movie which went to Mick Jackson for Temple Grandin
Stonestreet of 'Modern Family' and Lynch of 'Glee' were honoured for their comedy-series supporting roles.
'All I wanted to be was a clown in the circus when I was a kid growing up,' said Stonestreet, who plays a boisterous gay dad and partner. He thanked his parents for their support and promised to send his trophy home with them.
Lynch also thanked her folks along with her wife, Lara Embry. The pair married in Massachusetts in May.
Praised: George Clooney and girlfriend Elisabetta Canalis backstage after the actor received the Bob Hope Humanitarian Award
Fancy seeing you here: Clooney accepted the award from his former ER co-star, Julianna Margulies, who lauded his fundraising efforts for victims of this year's earthquake in Haiti, the 2004 tsunami in Indonesia and the September 11 terrorist attacks
'This is outlandish. ... I want to thank my lord and creator, Ryan Murphy, for creating his role,' Lynch said, paying tribute to the 'Glee' executive producer.
'Top Chef' won best reality series, ending the seven-year winning streak of 'The Amazing Race.'
Jon Stewart's 'The Daily Show' won its eighth consecutive Emmy Award for best variety, music or comedy series. The victory kept Conan O'Brien from claiming an Emmy for his short-lived stint as 'Tonight' host.
Many talents: Kim Kardashian, in a flowing white Marchesa gown, sang alongside guitar-playing host Jimmy Fallon to help introduce the award for best reality TV programme, which went to Top Chef
Show opener: Jimmy Fallon kicked things off on a musical note, performing a song-and-dance number with the cast of Glee and a wildly mismatched group of celebrities, from left Amber Riley, Jane Lynch, Tina Fey, Joel McHale, Fallon, Cory Monteith, Chris Colfer, Jorge Garcia
George Clooney accepted the Bob Hope Humanitarian Award from his former 'ER' co-star, Julianna Margulies, who lauded his fundraising efforts for victims of this year's earthquake in Haiti, the 2004 tsunami in Indonesia and the September 11 terrorist attacks.
Clooney, recalling evenings spent with Bob and Dolores Hope at the home of his aunt, singer Rosemary Clooney, said he was inspired by the late comedian and his wife, now 101.
'If you look at everything they accomplished in their lives ... They're the best version of the term 'celebrity,'' Clooney said.
Jewel sang her song 'Hole in My Heart' during a memorial tribute to prominent TV figures, including Robert Culp, Soupy Sales, Dixie Carter, Gary Coleman, John Forsythe and 'Roots' producer David L. Wolper.
Al Pacino was honoured as best lead actor in a miniseries or movie for 'You Don't Know Jack,' about euthanasia advocate Dr. Jack Kevorkian, who was in the audience and stood, smiling, at Pacino's request. The controversial physician received scattered applause.
Host Jimmy Fallon opened the show on a musical note, performing a song-and-dance number with the cast of 'Glee' and a wildly mismatched group of celebrities including Betty White, Jon Hamm, Kate Gosselin and Randy Jackson.
British comic Ricky Gervais also presented an award, showing off his newly trim figure in a smart suit
Much of the group ended up on the Nokia Theatre stage to kick off the awards with a high-energy version of 'Born to Run,' with Fallon on guitar.
'Tonight we're going to celebrate your work,' Fallon told the audience. 'So let's have some fun tonight.'
Last year's host, Neil Patrick Harris, was a presenter Sunday and took the time to rib Fallon.
'I want to thank the (TV) academy for allowing a gay man to host the Emmys two years in a row. Congratulations, Jimmy, you're doing a good job,' Harris said, smiling.
