He's often seen showing off his torso by going shirtless, especially of late.

But Justin Bieber shocked his family when he did the full monty during a bizarre nude prank at his grandmother's house in Toronto during Canadian Thanksgiving back in October 2012.

In photos obtained by TMZ, the 19-year-old is seen covering his private parts merely with an acoustic guitar, jamming out a naked serenade for his granny, Diane Dale

Nude Justin was staying at his grandmother's home in Toronto when the strange incident went down.

According to the website, Justin had been enjoying a break at her home during the holiday and slept in a little too late on Thanksgiving morning.

Finally waking up after hearing family and friends stirring around the house, he thought he'd play a prank on the unsuspecting clan by grabbing his guitar and playing the naked set.

The pop star went right up to his grandmother and started belting out some impromptu lyrics, singing: 'I Loooove you grandmaaaa ... how are youuuu ... helloooo grandma'.

While his family and friends were laughing, his giggling granny begged the pop star to get back in his room to put some clothes on.

Justin's grandmother Diane recently defended her grandson in an interview with CTV Ottowa.

Speaking about all the attention Justin's actions attract, Diane said: 'It's totally crazy. I feel sorry for Justin all the time because paparazzi pick on him all the time. Anybody else's kids have done the same thing but nobody says anything.'

She added: 'He's just a 19 year old boy. And before you criticise him, say, what is my 19-year-old boy doing?'

Join us on Facebook 

The 42-year-old-singer-turned-actor, who was jailed for assault as a teenager, also warned the "Baby" hitmaker to stop smoking weed, reports contactmusic.com.

"Justin are you listening? Don't be so naughty, yeah?" he said during a web chat with The Sun newspaper.

 "Be a nice boy, pull your trousers up, make your mum proud, and stop smoking weed, you little b***h," quipped Wahlberg .

"He's a teenager living in a different day and age. I was in prison before I got a record out and I don't think he's been to prison. He's a nice enough kid and you're going to be a teenager. But if you're being a teen in the spotlight, you're going to be criticised for it.This career can be short lived - you might as well be the best you can while you're doing it," added Wahlberg.

Wahlberg is also planning to work with the 19-year-old singer on a film and may even get behind the mike again.

"Justin and I were talking about doing a movie, which could still happen. We have a great script, which could be a vehicle for him to make his debut in movies, then maybe we could do something for the soundtrack," Wahlberg said.

"Mark blasted Justin back in 2010 for not making a promised call to his daughter Ella Rae (Bottom right) - here they all attended an event at Paramount Studios in Los Angeles back in October 2010"

Kashmera Shah’s play goes the Hollywood way!

Many movies have shot two to three different endings and climax sequences and decided which one to add in their projects at the last minute.

It’s a common practice in Hollywood to shoot two movie endings, take the opinions of focus groups and a cross section of people and retain the one more accepted. Bollywood too has caught up with a similar trend off late.

But what surprises us now is that Kashmera Shah’s latest play Tere Ghar Ke Samne has adopted a similar practice, albeit with a difference.

Over a few summer Sundays spread across weeks, Kash’s play has been running to packed houses at various theatre outlets, while experimenting with not two, but three different endings. Almost every week, the viewers get to see a different climax to her play. Whoa!

What’s more! What started as a one-off experiment is now becoming the norm. “Earlier we thought we’d do this for a couple of weeks and then stick to the end the audiences find the best. But this experimenting process gets the actors and audiences alike so kicked, that we are continuing with it,” reveals Kash.

Thanks to this, a select percentage of audiences have even returned for an extra round of the play, just to see how it will end in their second outing. We are often amazed how you manage to begin such whacky trends Kash, but it’s cool as long as you continue to amuse and entertain. More power to you and your wackiness girl!

Paris Slumdog Hundredaire Act..

[Article for one of the Magazine]

Hollywood socialite and hotel heiress Paris Hilton came to India on a three-day trip; she astonished a beggar in Mumbai by giving her $100. She might have thought her bighearted present might improve the life of the woman seeking alms at least for a few days.

The socialite reportedly spotted a poor woman begging with a baby in her arms on the streets of Mumbai, when she was going to launch her bag store. The car slowed down and Hilton handed the $100 note through the window. This isn't the first time Hilton has been this charitable. A couple of weeks back, when was in France and tipped the local cab-driver a $100.

Ishika 22-year-old beggar wondered what the $100 was because she had never seen a dollar note before.  She even asked people around her if they could give her change in exchange of the American currency. She later handed over the note to her brother-in-law, requesting him to get it exchanged for the corresponding value of Indian currency.  Her greedy relatives began to quarrel among each other for the note and started assaulting her brother-in-law and even tried to wangle the note forcefully from him.  Frustrated brother-in-law tore it into pieces to permanently bring the fight to an end.

Ishika said, "As usual I was begging outside a mall in Andheri. All of a sudden I saw a foreigner and was about to approach her for money. But she called me herself, and handed over the strange note.  I requested several people on the road if they could give me change in return for it. Sometime told me it’s a dollar, I gave it to my brother-in-law and asked him to get it exchanged for the correct notes. But all our hungry relatives began demanding that we share the money with them, I did not want to share it with then, as the foreigner had gifted it to me. My brother-in-law got really angry with the incident and tore it up into pieces.”

Ishika's brother-in-law said, "Members of our community were assaulting us, so they could have the note.  Seeing the misunderstanding and sadness caused by the money, I angrily tore it up.  Now I regret my action, it was worth 5000 Rs."

Paris also showed her concern on micro-blogging site for the widespread poverty in the country. She wrote, “India is beautiful, but some parts are very poverty stricken. Broke my heart to see babies sleeping on the streets. What are the most credible non-profit charity organizations here in India? After seeing what I've seen, I want to help make a difference.”

Reportedly some media people were present when Hilton handed $100(approx Rs 5,000) to the poor woman. I guess the reporters and the people around there were very well aware about the dollar then why they didn't help the beggar to exchange the note?

Be Blessed,
-K Himaanshu Shukla..
