    Beiber tracks his ‘Recovery’ from heartbreak

    MUMBAI: He became an instant hit on the chartbusters with “Baby”, now singer Justin Bieber, has launched a new track titled, “Recovery”. Penned during the time he was going through a “hard break up”, the track surely seems to attract a lot of young romantics.

    “You have to step up and recover. At the time, I was going through a very hard break up and when you’re going through stuff like that you think that the world is just gonna end. Then you wake up the next day and realise that life has to go on,” said Bieber, who has been in an on-off relationship with singer Selena Gomez.

    Bieber took to Twitter to thank the English singer-songwriter, Craig David for inspiring him, and wrote: “Craig David thanks for the inspiration bro. Appreciate it.”

  • Rolls Royce and MTV to fight HIV and Aids

    Rolls Royce and MTV to fight HIV and Aids

    MUMBAI: Rolls-Royce has teamed up with the international music channel MTV to raise $25,000 for the Staying Alive Foundation, a global organisation dedicated to preventing the spread of HIV and Aids.

    At last year’s MTV European Music Awards in Lisbon, Rolls-Royce provided a new Phantom and invited artists to autograph the back seat. By the end of the event, more than 20 celebrities had signed, including Black Eyed Peas, Coldplay (Chris Martin pictured below), Nelly Furtado, Craig David, Bob Geldof, Shakira, Formula 1 driver Jenson Button, Foo Fighters and Borat, to name a few.

    Subsequently, the seat was removed from the car and turned into a sofa by up-and-coming furniture designer Nick Gutfreund. The seat was then bought by Hard Rock for $25,000 with Rolls-Royce donating the money to MTV’s Staying Alive Foundation.

    “We are delighted to have been involved with MTV and Hard Rock on such an innovative project,” said Rolls-Royce chairman Ian Robertson. “And one that has raised a considerable sum of money to assist Staying Alive in their continued efforts to prevent the spread of HIV and Aids.”

    MTV’s Staying Alive Foundation (www.staying-alive.org) promotes and supports young people everywhere who are protecting themselves and their communities against the multiple threats posed by the spread of HIV and Aids. The Foundation does this by presenting the Staying Alive Award annually, to young individuals and youth groups who are focused on stopping the spread of HIV and who have demonstrated the potential to become future leaders.
