nights in Bangladesh and I'll be playing
00:09:25
a song for one of our
listeners by request in just
00:09:27
a few minutes so hang around for that so
what Thank you so much Bangla radio I do
00:09:30
have
00:09:31
a little bit of some sad news optimistic
news but nonetheless it's important news
00:09:36
Demi Lovato who has given us quite
00:09:39
a few hits she started off on the Disney
Channel and actually she started even
00:09:43
before that acting on television as
00:09:45
a 6 year old with Selena Gomez on Barney
and friends and she's quite famous she was
00:09:51
in the film Camp Rock she's been in a
number of things dated Joe Jonas for
00:09:55
a little while had
00:09:56
a relationship with Wilmer Valderrama he's
an actor for about 6 years Demi Lovato
00:10:02
apparently And the key word here is
apparently because so far with keeps talking
00:10:07
about nothing's been confirmed
because we haven't gotten
00:10:10
a statement from her family or her
publicist no one's commenting but T.M.C.
00:10:16
Has reported and now People magazine and
time and just about everybody C.N.N.
00:10:20
Everybody in the media were.
Reporting that Demi Lovato suffered
00:10:24
a heroin overdose at 11 30 in the morning
yesterday police were called to her house
00:10:29
in Laurel Canyon California outside of
Hollywood and all they were saying was that
00:10:34
a 25 year old woman female had suffered
00:10:38
a drug overdose and was taken to the hospital
for treatment now the word is that if
00:10:43
in fact it is confirmed to be Demi and
we assume it is Yvette she's awake she's
00:10:48
responsive her family are there her friends
are there so far no official statement
00:10:52
yet the last comment that she made on
Twitter which is kind of interesting she
00:10:59
actually posted something on Twitter and
said that she's sober out now is what she
00:11:05
wrote sober out now and she went on to say
let's see what else my truth. She posted
00:11:12
. She's happy and she loves everybody
she's getting so much in terms of
00:11:18
outpouring from fans of the
Lovato xor fans are known as
00:11:21
a live audience all around the world are
responding I posted this on Facebook today
00:11:25
. And immediately got
00:11:28
a response from all of the people who are
listening to border crossings and all the
00:11:31
followers of my Facebook page
Facebook dot com slash V.O.A.
00:11:34
Larry London. But one of the things she
said on Twitter the very last words that
00:11:39
she put on Twitter are the words happy and
free that was the last thing she put on
00:11:44
Twitter before apparently she suffered
this drug overdose heroine I think sure
00:11:50
there's more to the story the interesting
things about her history her past she's
00:11:53
dealt with rehab she's dealt with drugs
and alcohol. Addiction self image
00:12:00
issues mental health issues she's been an
outspoken. I guess cheerleader for youth
00:12:07
about mental health concerns and issues and
her father was an alcoholic and victim
00:12:12
to drugs he passed away so she grew up in
that environment and climate So again our
00:12:17
thoughts and prayers are with Demi Lovato
right now we do care about her I know
00:12:21
we'll. Valma Valderrama her ex-boyfriend
said I never realized it was at this point
00:12:26
and he's heartbroken
so we're going to play
00:12:28
a song right now for all of objects
around the world who are listening Isaac
00:12:32

00:16:42
When I was young my mama beats them. Out
on the streets in the back of the Somme I
00:16:49
never want to see a prison paid
00:16:50
a woman to love like the mamas place in the
school up to go home again with the big
00:16:57
boys to get all the food they see the
big sis the Oakley is pulling the
00:17:04
king leaf and no tags say drama
what things will we play
00:17:11
a primitive song the suppressant
calls it was still OK No mama from
00:17:15
a jail cell. In the elementary they seat
00:17:21
a bit it's. The full blown
swine mama cat food in the
00:17:27
backside. Mama Goldthwaite's
was the black mom
00:17:34
up the pump going to stay and
been a day 6 trying to place
00:17:38
a place. To call this was completed the
signal problem so for example guided
00:17:45

plan is to show you that Alan snake.
00:17:51
Appreciate. Seeing me. To come up
00:17:58
with. A snow.
00:18:08
Illegal body tell
00:18:09
a super secret no love for my dad because
the Cavil doesn't think that's the way he
00:18:15

give it to you for the stranger to say I'm
00:18:20
coming the longest what all along I was
looking for the story home the clown with
00:18:26
the goods going to the gold the soap drugs

because no one still used to
00:18:39
put it. Money to buy. Things
00:18:43
a problem to pick up Dominic said A
C C and decided not to slow longest
00:18:49

cannot see the company long enough to
00:18:55
make good to keep such on the things some
ugly. Just floated scraps it was given to
00:19:02

under state law appreciate.
Seeing the woman.
00:19:22
In. A snow. Slump
00:19:28

mom when it seems that at least some soup
00:19:42
plates that kick back in focus would
not suggest to me that it is limited
00:19:49
to things you can see. The moment sallow
blue very good LOL the sweet things are
00:19:55

appreciating how good grace made it all
00:20:11

Border crossings and the voice of Whitney
Houston and I have nothing if I don't
00:44:02
have you from bodyguard and I still remember
her playing Rachel Marron in that film
00:44:07
opposite Kevin Costner what
00:44:08
a great film one of the best selling
soundtracks ever because it had Whitney and
00:44:14
that's
00:44:14
a request from Bette tests faith in Ethiopia
here on the border crossings and interesting
00:44:20
story almost it with the song I will always
love you Whitney wasn't thrilled with
00:44:24
singing it in the film she originally didn't
want to sing it and it was written by
00:44:29
Dolly Parton she was just concerned that
because Dolly had released it it wouldn't
00:44:34
have the impact or desired impact but wow
look what look at happened became one of
00:44:38
the biggest hits from the film the biggest
hit of the year so there you go Whitney
00:44:43
Houston the late Whitney Houston and
also speaking of Whitney Houston there's
00:44:48
a film out
00:44:48
a documentary about her it's called Whitney
and it hasn't opened up in theaters
00:44:53
here in the United States yet around the
world but it was shown back in May in
00:44:57
France at the Cannes Film Festival
in France and there's been
00:45:01
a lot of talk about it ever since one of
the big things about the film was that it
00:45:05
revealed that when she was
00:45:06
a youngster she was sexually abused by her
brother Michael the family didn't know
00:45:12
this it came out in the film her mother
Cissy didn't know it till she sought in the
00:45:17
film can you imagine being
00:45:19
a parent and not knowing something about
your own child until years after their
00:45:23
death if you watch
00:45:24
a film about them and discover something
you don't know about your own kids so that
00:45:28
was kind of tough but you know the director
of the film said it was cathartic it
00:45:32
was necessary these. Stories that were
necessary to tell about her and her pain and
00:45:37
suffering so he thought it was very very
therapeutic for the family to actually
00:45:40
hear all of this stuff come out this is
border crossing I do want to say hello to

00:09:30
have
00:09:31
a little bit of some sad news optimistic
news but nonetheless it's important news
00:09:36
Demi Lovato who has given us quite
00:09:39
a few hits she started off on the Disney
Channel and actually she started even
00:09:43
before that acting on television as
00:09:45
a 6 year old with Selena Gomez on Barney
and friends and she's quite famous she was
00:09:51
in the film Camp Rock she's been in a
number of things dated Joe Jonas for
00:09:55
a little while had
00:09:56
a relationship with Wilmer Valderrama he's
an actor for about 6 years Demi Lovato
00:10:02
apparently And the key word here is
apparently because so far with keeps talking
00:10:07
about nothing's been confirmed
because we haven't gotten
00:10:10
a statement from her family or her
publicist no one's commenting but T.M.C.
00:10:16
Has reported and now People magazine and
time and just about everybody C.N.N.
00:10:20
Everybody in the media were.
Reporting that Demi Lovato suffered
00:10:24
a heroin overdose at 11 30 in the morning
yesterday police were called to her house
00:10:29
in Laurel Canyon California outside of
Hollywood and all they were saying was that
00:10:34
a 25 year old woman female had suffered
00:10:38
a drug overdose and was taken to the hospital
for treatment now the word is that if
00:10:43
in fact it is confirmed to be Demi and
we assume it is Yvette she's awake she's
00:10:48
responsive her family are there her friends
are there so far no official statement
00:10:52
yet the last comment that she made on
Twitter which is kind of interesting she
00:10:59
actually posted something on Twitter and
said that she's sober out now is what she
00:11:05
wrote sober out now and she went on to say
let's see what else my truth. She posted
00:11:12
. She's happy and she loves everybody
she's getting so much in terms of
00:11:18
outpouring from fans of the
Lovato xor fans are known as
00:11:21
a live audience all around the world are
responding I posted this on Facebook today
00:11:25
. And immediately got
00:11:28
a response from all of the people who are
listening to border crossings and all the
00:11:31
followers of my Facebook page
Facebook dot com slash V.O.A.
00:11:34
Larry London. But one of the things she
said on Twitter the very last words that
00:11:39
she put on Twitter are the words happy and
free that was the last thing she put on
00:11:44
Twitter before apparently she suffered
this drug overdose heroine I think sure
00:11:50
there's more to the story the interesting
things about her history her past she's
00:11:53
dealt with rehab she's dealt with drugs
and alcohol. Addiction self image
00:12:00
issues mental health issues she's been an
outspoken. I guess cheerleader for youth
00:12:07
about mental health concerns and issues and
her father was an alcoholic and victim
00:12:12
to drugs he passed away so she grew up in
that environment and climate So again our
00:12:17
thoughts and prayers are with Demi Lovato
right now we do care about her I know
00:12:21
we'll. Valma Valderrama her ex-boyfriend
said I never realized it was at this point
00:12:26
and he's heartbroken
so we're going to play
00:12:28
a song right now for all of objects
around the world who are listening Isaac
00:12:32
request of this in God This is Christina

00:16:42
When I was young my mama beats them. Out
on the streets in the back of the Somme I
00:16:49
never want to see a prison paid
00:16:50
a woman to love like the mamas place in the
school up to go home again with the big
00:16:57
boys to get all the food they see the
big sis the Oakley is pulling the
00:17:04
king leaf and no tags say drama
what things will we play
00:17:11
a primitive song the suppressant
calls it was still OK No mama from
00:17:15
a jail cell. In the elementary they seat
00:17:21
a bit it's. The full blown
swine mama cat food in the
00:17:27
backside. Mama Goldthwaite's
was the black mom
00:17:34
up the pump going to stay and
been a day 6 trying to place
00:17:38
a place. To call this was completed the
signal problem so for example guided
00:17:45
there's no way to get it back but the
plan is to show you that Alan snake.
00:17:51
Appreciate. Seeing me. To come up
00:17:58
with. A snow.
00:18:08
Illegal body tell
00:18:09
a super secret no love for my dad because
the Cavil doesn't think that's the way he
00:18:15
did not even cry because Moneygall would
give it to you for the stranger to say I'm
00:18:20
coming the longest what all along I was
looking for the story home the clown with
00:18:26
the goods going to the gold the soap drugs
the soda young brother. Started saying
00:18:33
it's OK to put so last. Night coops
because no one still used to
00:18:39
put it. Money to buy. Things
00:18:43
a problem to pick up Dominic said A
C C and decided not to slow longest
00:18:49
coming indefinitely long because the company
cannot see the company long enough to
00:18:55
make good to keep such on the things some
ugly. Just floated scraps it was given to
00:19:02
a mom of
00:19:02
a separate Thanksgiving but now told
God you'll become fond of phrases it's
00:19:09
a default and there's no way got to play
the back foot the plan is to show you that
00:19:15
under state law appreciate.
Seeing the woman.
00:19:22
In. A snow. Slump
00:19:28
play. Ball simpler
00:19:35
is just to try to always the kids know my
mom when it seems that at least some soup
00:19:42
plates that kick back in focus would
not suggest to me that it is limited
00:19:49
to things you can see. The moment sallow
blue very good LOL the sweet things are
00:19:55
good for me. And the COAG 3
I've got a big load that's
00:20:00
a baby they are no words they can't
express how I feel give them
00:20:05
a kept secret always they feel they're not
appreciating how good grace made it all
00:20:11
the extra that day. I wish Coptic prayed
the way to make it through the night this
00:20:17
applied to say let me look me
over I just discovered that it's
00:20:23

Border crossings and the voice of Whitney
Houston and I have nothing if I don't
00:44:02
have you from bodyguard and I still remember
her playing Rachel Marron in that film
00:44:07
opposite Kevin Costner what
00:44:08
a great film one of the best selling
soundtracks ever because it had Whitney and
00:44:14
that's
00:44:14
a request from Bette tests faith in Ethiopia
here on the border crossings and interesting
00:44:20
story almost it with the song I will always
love you Whitney wasn't thrilled with
00:44:24
singing it in the film she originally didn't
want to sing it and it was written by
00:44:29
Dolly Parton she was just concerned that
because Dolly had released it it wouldn't
00:44:34
have the impact or desired impact but wow
look what look at happened became one of
00:44:38
the biggest hits from the film the biggest
hit of the year so there you go Whitney
00:44:43
Houston the late Whitney Houston and
also speaking of Whitney Houston there's
00:44:48
a film out
00:44:48
a documentary about her it's called Whitney
and it hasn't opened up in theaters
00:44:53
here in the United States yet around the
world but it was shown back in May in
00:44:57
France at the Cannes Film Festival
in France and there's been
00:45:01
a lot of talk about it ever since one of
the big things about the film was that it
00:45:05
revealed that when she was
00:45:06
a youngster she was sexually abused by her
brother Michael the family didn't know
00:45:12
this it came out in the film her mother
Cissy didn't know it till she sought in the
00:45:17
film can you imagine being
00:45:19
a parent and not knowing something about
your own child until years after their
00:45:23
death if you watch
00:45:24
a film about them and discover something
you don't know about your own kids so that
00:45:28
was kind of tough but you know the director
of the film said it was cathartic it
00:45:32
was necessary these. Stories that were
necessary to tell about her and her pain and
00:45:37
suffering so he thought it was very very
therapeutic for the family to actually
00:45:40
hear all of this stuff come out this is
border crossing I do want to say hello to
00:45:44
said Marshal Isaac we've got
