"Access Holly-wood" has named its "Top Ten Stars of 2004," with Britney Spears in the No. 1 spot.
The rankings are based on the number of stories the syndicated entertainment television show aired on each star. Spears - who was married twice, canceled a summer tour because of a knee injury and released a greatest hits album - topped the list with 119 stories.
Beyonce is in the No. 2 spot, with 102 stories, followed by Donald Trump, 94 stories; Michael Jackson, 84 stories; Tom Cruise, 72 stories; Jessica Simpson, 69 stories; Paris Hilton, 63 stories; Nicole Kidman, 62 stories; Jennifer Lopez, 54 stories; and Whitney Houston, 52 stories.
"We want to thank these stars for helping to make 2004 the best in 'Access Hollywood' history," executive producer Rob Silverstein said in a statement Tuesday. "Here's to more 'can't miss' moments in 2005."
LONDON - Stolen gold and silver discs won by Ozzy Osbourne's band Black Sabbath were recovered after thieves dumped them behind trash cans.
The discs were reported missing last week after a burglary at the home of Osbourne's former manager Patrick Meehan, in Edenbridge, Kent, southeast England.
Kent Police said an anonymous tip led them to the eight discs, found Wednesday in a plastic bag dumped behind recycling bins.
Two other discs stolen in the haul - which included the albums "Master of Reality," "Paranoid" and "Black Sabbath, Vol. 4" - had already been returned after being offered for sale on Internet auction site eBay. Osbourne, who earned fame as a heavy metal rocker in the 1970s, was a victim of burglars himself last month.
He unsuccessfully attempted to tackle thieves who broke into his Buckinghamshire mansion, west of London, and made off with valuable jewelry.
