PRLog (Press Release)Apr 07, 2012
We are all born and we all will die, it is what happens in between that determines how close those two events are to each other.

Whitney Amy Michael Elvis – Superstars are not Superhuman is released By Book Express Publishing. The losses of superstars Whitney Houston, Amy Winehouse, Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley underscored the fact that our superstars are subject to the same pressure and pitfalls as the rest of society.

The pressure cooker world of fame and relentless media attention are sure to take a toll on those that can never escape the spotlight. What role did the environment these individuals endured on a daily basis play in their ultimate downfalls?

Whitney Houston, Amy Winehouse, Michael Jackson and Elvis are examples of shocking death announcements that shattered the illusion of there being something different about the ability of our idols to weather the various pitfalls that came their way. No on expects to hear of seemingly vigorous individuals suddenly dying in the prime of their lives. It is only after their untimely demises that we get a glimpse of the full extent of the issues they were dealing with. It is only then that we understand that there is a level of fame, adulation and temptation that may possibly be beyond the ability of many individuals to deal with and survive.

Wilbon: Phil Jackson will manager in 2012-13

During a roundtable chat with ESPN NBA analysts, Michael Wilbon guaranteed that former Lakers coach Phil Jackson will return to the NBA in 2012-13.

Will it be with the Knicks?

“New York’s certainly a possibility” if the job is available, said Wilbon, who didn’t cite any sources, named or unnamed.

Knicks coach Mike D’Antoni enters this season in the final year of his contract. If the Knicks falter and D’Antoni is not asked back, there will plenty of Jackson-to-New York speculation.

Jackson, 66, retired last season after the Mavericks swept the Lakers in the Western Conference semifinals.

Wilbon believes Jackson will sit this season out and prepare to return.

“You can mark it down: Phil Jackson is going to be coaching in the NBA next season,” he said.

Jackson won a record 11 NBA titles as coach of the Bulls and the Lakers. He also won two as a player with the Knicks (1970, 1973), which is one reason he may be drawn to the job.

Another is the Knicks’ roster.

Barring a blockbuster trade, the Knicks will have superstars Carmelo Anthony and Amare Stoudemire under contract in 2012-13 and will pursue Dwight Howard or Chris Paul via free agency or trade.

And we know Jackson is attracted to a star-studded roster.

With both the Bulls and Lakers, Jackson’s success stemmed from an ability to convince stars of the merits of getting teammates involved in the offense.

Maybe he sees another opportunity to do so with the Anthony and Stoudemire Knicks?

Wilbon made it clear, however, that Jackson is not interested in joining a team this season and “doesn’t want his name out there while Mike D’Antoni or anybody else has a job.”

D’Antoni, of course, will be under heavy scrutiny. If the Knicks take another step toward competing for a championship by, say, advancing to the second round of the playoffs, it’s logical that he gets asked back.

If not, expect the Jackson-to-New York rumors to run rampant.

But he didn’t trust record labels that seemed to exploit artists for their talent and keep the profits for themselves. So Shawn decided to do it himself. He cut his own album and sold copies from the trunk of his car. Controlling his own career, Jay-Z started his own record label. Even though he has announced his retirement, Jay-Z will be remembered as a legendary hip-hop artist.
