Modjadji VI, the South African queen believed to make rain, has died in hospital, just two years after being crowned. Makobo Modjadji was a descendant from a line of rain queens dating back at least 200 years, and the youngest ever to head southern Africa's only female dynasty ruling the Balobedu people in the country's northern Limpopo province.

Idol fan auctions off American Idol, Kelly Clarkson's, water bottle after recovering it at a recent concert. Kelly Clarkson fans have two more days to bid on a one and only item being auctioned off on e-bay. The anonymous seller from Ames, Iowa is hoping to cash in on a used water bottle from Clarkson's concert in Omaha. "I am auctioning off (1) 16. 9 fluid ounce bottle of Dasani bottled water that Kelly Clarkson drank out of during her concert on April 2. . . . Do you want to own some Kelly Clarkson DNA, then this is your chance," says the seller. The prized water bottle was obtained by the unknown fan thanks to a seat in row 1 at Clarkson's show, giving him, or her, the perfect opportunity to snag the bottle. The best part - there's still water in it, so fans can share a drink with their favorite Idol star. Unfortunately, Idol-goers don't seem to see the value - with just two days left there's been only three bids, reaching a total of $20. 50.
