Selena Gomez is the epitome of a Disney darling. Known to most for her breakout role as Alex Russo on Wizards of Waverly Place, Gomez has transformed into a notable actress, singer, and social media influencer. With one of her Instagram photos garnering over 10.5 million likes, Gomez is in the top ten most liked photos of all time. In 2013, Gomez was diagnosed with the autoimmune disorder lupus. Side-effects from her disorder have caused her to go in and out of rehab due to a strong battle with anxiety and depression. Gomez has done rounds of chemotherapy and most recently had a kidney transplant, with best friend and fellow actress Francia Rasia as her donor. Gomez has also been a current media topic because of her on-again, off-again relationship with popular Canadian singer Justin Bieber.
Wham! Much like the name of his ‘80s pop band, George Michael’s rise to success was fast. One of the best-selling music artists of all time with over 100 million records sold, George Michael briefly outsold musical giants such as Madonna, Prince and even Michael Jackson. However, struggles with his recording label and personal life dampened his iconic legacy after he was caught soliciting sex from an undercover officer at a rest stop – thus, essentially outing his homosexuality. Although he never again equaled his sensational fame of the 1980s, George Michael did continue to impact lives through his music, social activism and philanthropy. His life would unfortunately be cut short at 53 years of age, with the exact cause still being debated to this day.
This is the inside story of the Freddie Mercury you never knew. A behind the scenes story focussing on the two years that changed his life: from the summer of 1985 at Live AID when he achieved his greatest musical triumph to the spring of 1987 when he faced his deepest fears and was diagnosed with AIDS. It’s the true story of his battle to keep his privacy against a prying tabloid press, to work despite crippling pain and to confound science and save his life. Blending dramatization of key scenes with rare archive and illuminating interviews with close friends, including his bodyguard and chauffeur Terry Giddings who breaks silence for the first time, it’s the revealing story of Freddie Mercury: The Great Pretender.
George Michael was a world-wide super star selling over 100 million albums. He started pop group Wham! with his childhood friend Andrew Ridgeley in the 1980s then continued to have solo success with a career that spanned four decades. He was adored by millions and yet he died alone on Christmas Day 2016. His extraordinary life was marred by contradictions – from soaring highs to crashing lows. In the last ten years of his life, George Michael became more known for run-ins with the press and the law than he did for his music. So what tipped him over the edge?
Created from the imagination of enigmatic pop superstar Prince, the Revolution grew to be one of the most successful bands of the eighties. Their greatest album, Purple Rain, produced some of the most iconic tracks of all time, selling millions of records and turning them into Hollywood stars. Recruited from Prince’s hometown of Minneapolis and the music studio scene of LA, this group of talented young musicians were barely out of their teens as they stormed stadiums nationwide and won the hearts of fans across the globe. But as The Revolution reached legendary heights, Prince’s controlling nature took hold and disagreements and disputes began to dog the once tight knit group. Everything came to a head as Prince and the Revolution performed in front of thousands of people, and an explosive Prince shocked fans and the band with his blazing onstage antics, throwing the Revolution into disarray and jeopardizing his greatest ever achievement.
With more than 100 million records sold worldwide, the Jackson 5 - later known as the Jacksons - changed the pop landscape forever, paving the way for the modern boy band and bringing black music to a mainstream audience. But beneath their wholesome, bubble gum image, was a dark side: Betrayal, fraternal jealousy, a controlling father and a burgeoning megastar fighting to break free, threaten to rip the once close-knit family and group apart. This is the story of the spectacular break-up of the Jackson 5.

We tell the inside story of six unforgettable songs, that took Mötley Crüe from Sunset Strip wannabes to giants of metal. We discover how the group’s love of Alice Cooper and 70s UK glam rock inspired early classics like Live Wire and how, unbeknownst to band members, the video for breakthrough track, Looks that Kill, was inspired by the operas of Richard Wagner. We explore how the band managed to survive the aftermath of the tragically fatal car crash, which saw singer Vince Neil jailed. And we hear how biopic ‘The Dirt’ has introduced Mötley Crüe to a new generation, leading them to tear up the contract where it had vowed never to play live again. Record producer Tom Werman recalls eating Suchi with Nikki Sixx the night after the bass player had famously briefly died after a drug overdose. Bob Rock marvels at how he ‘lucked out’ when a newly sober band turned up to make the landmark Doctor Feelgood album, with him at the controls.

While Cinematographer Toby Phillips recalls the feverish excitement as the band returned to West Hollywood’s Whisky a Go Go to film Kickstart My Heart.
We explore the three classic hits that define Poison’s career as the one of the best-loved glam metal bands of all time. Having honed their sound, sensational stage show and famous androgynous image on LA’s Sunset Strip rock scene, Poison’s first Top 40 Billboard hit came in the form of second single ‘Talk Dirty To Me.’ Video director Jean Pellerin reveals how he captured the band’s sense of fun and feelgood energy in the song’s music video, helping it become an MTV favorite. In 1988, Poison released the rock ballad ‘Every Rose Has Its Thorn.’ Although their record company were initially reluctant to release it - believing it to be “too country” - it would become their biggest ever hit, peaking at number one on the Billboard chart. More hits followed, including the pop rock smash ‘Unskinny Bop.’ The meaning of the song’s title has remained a mystery to many, but road crew member Riki Valentine reveals that ‘Unskinny Bop’ doesn’t actually mean anything, it was just a phrase that fit the melody when they were writing it. Despite their huge success, it wasn’t all plain sailing for Poison. Those close to the band - including producer Jim Faraci and video director Shane Stanley – share memories of the fall-outs and rock n’ roll excess that went on behind the scenes, culminating in singer Bret Michaels and guitarist C.C. Deville coming to blows backstage at the 1991 MTV Music Video Awards.

From birth Ethan Couch was raised in a bubble of wealth, privilege, and lack-of-consequences. He was taught that money can buy you anything, and there’s no reason to be accountable for your actions. His teenage rebellious behavior escalated out of control in a series of incidents crescendo-ing in the deaths of 4 people and severe injuries of 9 more. During his trial and sentencing a radical defense of “affluenza” was presented and became a self-fulfilling prophecy: Ethan received a lenient sentence because he had been sheltered by wealth his whole life (losing his sense of consequences and morals). Over the following years he became a repeat offender, always slipping out of any true justice when caught. His behavior continues to this day. The real question is – who’s fault is it that he’s seems to be a remorseless psychopath?

On October 2nd 2017, news of Tom Petty’s sudden death at the age of 66 shocked the nation. As one of America’s most adored singers and songwriters, his career spanned more than four decades. Tom overcame a troubled upbringing in Gainesville, Florida, to become a true rock and roll legend as frontman of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, cofounder of supergroup The Travelling Wilburys and as a solo artist, producing timeless hits such as ‘Free Falling’, ‘American Girl’ and ‘I Won’t Back Down.’ On September 25th, 2017 he played the last night of a sell-out, six month tour with his beloved bandmembers to a packed out stadium in Hollywood. He seemed on top of the world. But just one week later, he collapsed at his Malibu home and was rushed to hospital, where he died the following day. Now, one of the world’s most eminent forensic pathologists, Dr. Michael Hunter wants to investigate the circumstances of Tom’s mysterious death. He will analyse every detail in Tom’s Autopsy report to piece together what led him to die so suddenly and unexpectedly.
On October 6th 2020, the world was shocked by the news that guitar legend Eddie Van Halen had died. A rock prodigy with a boyish charm, Eddie was never more comfortable than when he had a guitar in his hand. Known as the founder of the Van Halen, a band synonymous with California cool, Eddie was surprisingly an immigrant. Of both Dutch and Indonesian heritage, his family moved from the Netherlands to California when he was a child. Without knowing a word of English, Eddie overcame racism in a pre civil rights America. By age 25, Eddie’s band had sold multiple platinum albums and his innovative guitar techniques cemented Eddie in Rock and Roll history. It seemed nothing could stop him. But behind his contagious smile, there was a darker undercurrent that would plague Eddie throughout his life. He dealt with addiction issues for over 4 decades, having started drinking at just age 12. Often relying on alcohol and other substances to maintain his creativity, Eddie would spend many years in and out of rehab. He was a workaholic, often pushing his body to the limits in order to perform while secretly battling illness. Eddie died at the age of 65 from cancer. But if caught early, Eddie’s disease had reasonable survival rates. So what happened? World renowned forensic pathologist, Dr. Michael Hunter needs to analyse every detail of Eddie Van Halen’s life in order to piece together what else may have been going on in his body, ultimately leading to his untimely death.
Christopher John Cornell was an American musician, singer and songwriter. He was best known as the lead vocalist for the rock bands Soundgarden and Audioslave.

Cornell struggled with depression for much of his life. He was found dead in his Detroit hotel room early on the morning of May 18, 2017, after performing at a Soundgarden concert an hour earlier.
