She is known for being rather accident-prone, after tripping and falling at the Academy Awards two years in a row.

And Jennifer Lawrence nearly repeated the blunder at the New York City premiere of X-Men: Days Of Future Past on Saturday.

The American Hustle star ventured up a flight of stairs, only to nearly lose her balance and require the help of a couple assistants in order to stabilize.

Uh oh! Jennifer Lawrence nearly fell at the New York City premiere of X-Men: Days Of Future Past on Saturday

Before she wound up on the floor, Jennifer’s saviours grabbed onto each of her arms, as she wore an expression of shock and anxiety.

She then gathered herself and attempted to continue gracefully up the stairs, whilst seeming to eye the climb warily.

The Hunger Games star looked a dream in a slinky shining midnight blue gown, teamed with strappy heels that showed off her dark nail polish.

The axe came down on some of CBS' most plugged shows this week as Hostages and The Crazy Ones joined 22 other shows from five different networks which have been cut over the past few days.

It's culling season in the US which is bad news for Robin William’s and Sarah Michelle Gellar’s The Crazy Ones, which was thought to be in the line for another season.

Toni Collette's thriller Hostages has also been cut along with Intelligence, despite both shows scoring well in ratings.

It was good news though for The Mentalist which has been struggling with declining ratings lately. Despite worries over viewership the long-running crime drama will be returning for a seventh season, it was confirmed on Saturday.

Meanwhile comedies Bad Teacher and Friends with Better Lives have been cut, not that CBS is turning its back on comedy. The network has already ordered a number of new series including The Odd Couple, set to star Matthew Perry.

Surprisingly though, the much-buzzed about spin-off of How I Met Your Mother has not been picked up by the network, yet.

Further cancellations are due to be announced within the next week.

‘I am sometimes extremely sensitive, sometimes upbeat, others dreamy and romantic, and even at times a little melodramatic. (Call it the Caribbean blood.)

‘But always authentic and always sincere. Most importantly, I am enough. Imperfections and all. So what I am offering you now is just that.’

The album has materialized after a long and topsy turvy journey.

‘The work on this album has spanned a very eventful time, with many ups and downs but ultimately, the happiest period in my life thus far, including the birth of my son,’ Shakira added.

Nintendo Apologies for Not Including Same-Sex Relationships in Tomodachi Life



Nintendo has issued an apology for not including same-sex relationships in the English version of its game Tomodachi Life. The move comes days after the company had tried to downplay criticism of the game by fans seeking virtual equality for the game's characters, which are modelled after real people.

"We apologise for disappointing many people by failing to include same-sex relationships in Tomodachi Life," the statement said. However, Nintendo of America Inc. said it cannot add the feature at such a late stage by issuing a post-launch patch.

"Unfortunately, it is not possible for us to change this game's design, and such a significant development change can't be accomplished with a post-ship patch," the company added.

Tye Marini, a gay 23-year-old Nintendo fan from Mesa, Arizona, launched a social-media campaign last month, urging Kyoto, Japan-based Nintendo Co. and its subsidiary Nintendo of America Inc. to add same-sex relationship options to English versions of the handheld Nintendo 3DS game Tomodachi Life. The game was originally released in Japan last year and features a cast of Mii characters - Nintendo's personalised avatars of real players - living on a virtual island. Gamers can do things like shop, visit an amusement park, play games, go on dates and encounter celebrities like Christina Aguilera and Shaquille O'Neal.



Tomodachi Life has been a hit in a Japan, where Nintendo said last December it had sold 1.83 million copies of the game.

The company had been more guarded in its initial response to the campaign.

"Nintendo never intended to make any form of social commentary with the launch of Tomodachi Life," Nintendo had said in an earlier statement. "The relationship options in the game represent a playful alternate world rather than a real-life simulation. We hope that all of our fans will see that Tomodachi Life was intended to be a whimsical and quirky game, and that we were absolutely not trying to provide social commentary."
