...stump him with obscure show songs. Coppola missed only one, from Avenue Q, but he belted the rest right at Efron. "Believe it or not, he's got a pretty rich baritone. It's kind of great. I must be one of the few people he sang to, and it's an honor," he says. Efron's also in talks to remake Footloose as well as make a movie called Seventeen, in which a grown-up gets stuck inside a teenager's body due to, I'm guessing, an accident involving electricity...

The jewelry company has invested more than $200 million in the 1.2 million square miles China Pearls and Jewellery City in Zhuji, a Yangtze River town that provides 80% of China's freshwater pearl trade volume. When it is completed this fall, the enormous marketplace is expected to house more than 5,000 pearl shops, and Man Sang aims for it to become "the world's pearl...
