editRussia's Got Talent Death?
editI heard about an [insert country]'s Got Talent show where a man was killed during the act, and sure enough, there is a video on YouTube. Two men perform a routine that begins with some dancing and moves on to shooting a soda can off one's head with an arrow. The man misses and shoots the other in the forehead. Is this real? I couldn't find any real news articles, but it seems they are nicknamed "The Wonder Brothers from Kiev," and I am almost certain it is from Russia's Got Talent. --MrE1 (talk) 07:05, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
From what I can find-out online (and it supports my assumption) these guys were performing exactly to their routine. That is to say that the 'mistake' is part of the act and the reactions from the judges is real because they weren't expecting it. Certainly if such an event had occurred i'd expect it to be featured in many many newspaper articles, given the scenario. ny156uk (talk) 14:22, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

Michelle Pfeiffer press conference
editAt a recent press conference, a German reporter made rude personal comments to Michelle Pfeiffer – story here. I was wondering if this particular reporter ever filed her story anywhere, and if so whether it is available online. Many thanks, --Richardrj talk email 21:29, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
- IMDB is not in any way a reliable source for anything as it has no fact checking on anything submitted at all. Unless this story appears elsewhere in a reliable source I'd say it's bollocks. Exxolon (talk) 02:00, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
- They don't use their own news stories though. This one came from the World Entertainment News Network, which may or may not be more reliable... Adam Bishop (talk) 13:21, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
