Former 90210 star Shannen Doherty speaks out against human consumption of dogs and cats
Chuck Berry the father of Rock And Roll music died on 18th March at his home in St. Louis, Missouri in the US. He was a legend, an Icon of the industry who on his 90th birthday, 18th October last year announced plans to release an album called ‘Chuck’ this year.
