Back to blonde for Lady Gaga as she ditches the green wig at charity concert in Japan

By GEORGINA LITTLEJOHN

Back to blonde: Lady Gaga ditched the green wig she has been sporting for the last few weeks in favour of her trademark platinum blonde lock as she performed in Japan


She's worn all different colours and shades in her hair since hitting the big time, but Lady Gaga knows deep down that blondes definitely have more fun.

Having sported an aquamarine wig for the past few weeks, the singer decided to go back to her trademark platinum blonde look.

The Born This Way singer came on stage at the MTV Video Music Aid Japan at the Makuhari Messe Arena near Tokyo tonight.


Spiderwoman: Gaga, sporting green hair extensions as bunches, started her set trapped in what looked like a giant web...


Her hair had been braided and put into two buns on her head, her fringe cut short on her forehead.

She started the gig with aquamarine hair extensions on her bunches as she opened her set trapped in what looked like a giant spider web.

Dressed in a sparkly sequinned bra and long skirt with a split up each thigh, Gaga launched into her song The Edge of Glory as she pulled and tugged at the web.


... before breaking free and leaving her aquamarine strands behind


As she broke free, she ripped off the green extensions and joined her dancers as she finished the song.

Then, almost sneaking round the stage, she climbed some stairs and stood at her piano, which was made up to look like a giant spider, and launched into an acoustic version of Born This Way before rejoining her dancers for the full dance version of the hit song.

It was good to see Gaga back to blonde again even if her hair suffers as a result.


Where'd you get those peepers? Gaga takes off her sunglasses as she leaves the MTV concert to show off eye make-up that looks like eyes


After her performance, Gaga spoke to the press on the red carpet in an odd ensemble that made her look like a pearly queen.

She also showed off eye make up that looked like dark eyes as she posed for pictures and waved to fans.

Earlier, Gaga had rejoiced when she heard the news that her home state of New York passed a law making gay marriage legal.

She took to her Twitter page and wrote: 'I can't stop crying. We did it kids.

Rejoice New York, and propose. We did it!' the star added in a further tweet. 'The revolution is ours to fight for love, justice + equality.'

Just how does she do it? Model Lily Cole collects a DOUBLE first class from Cambridge (that's the highest possible honour)

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Doubling her success: Lily Cole has achieved a double first class degree in History of Art from Cambridge University


Most jet-setting supermodels barely have time to do their own make up let alone sign up for a full-time university course.

But Lily Cole proved it is possible to juggle a successful modelling career with a degree by picking up double first honours in History of Art from Cambridge University.

In doing so the 23-year-old achieved the highest possible honour in her degree course - an esteemed honour from one of the country's top universities.

The millionaire model was scouted at the age of 14 and has since modelled for top designers around the globe.

Her assignments have included work for all the leading fashion houses including Chanel, Jean Paul Gaultier, Versace, Alexander McQueen, John Galliano and Louis Vuitton.

In recent times she has switched her focus towards the world of acting appearing in BBC1 sci-fi show Doctor Who and Terry Gilliam's fantasy movie The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus with the late Heath Ledger.



A tough act to follow: Lily Cole plays the daughter of Dr Parnassus (Christopher Plummer) in Terry Gilliam's fantasy flick


Model turn: Lily has modelled for many of the world's top fashion houses


It was during her revision schedule when Miss Cole filmed scenes for her debut in Doctor Who, in which she appeared as a man-killing monster called Siren.

'Lily is really pleased with her result and has been smiling ever since she heard the news,' said a student at the university.

Adding: 'Not many students get double firsts and she has done exceptionally well as she had a huge work load outside university too.'


Multi-tasking at its best: The model juggled her studies with a hectic modelling schedule and still managed to achieve the very highest level on her degree


Throughout her time at the university she has thrown herself into college life, cycling to lectures, spending time with her fellow students after class and even modelling in the student newspaper.

Last term she combined her university life and acting career by starring as the lead role in The Seagull play at the ADC Theatre.

The model, who is said to be worth £6million, has said that she plans to concentrate on an acting career after graduating this summer, with forthcoming roles in There Be Dragons and The Moth Diaries.

In a recent interview she stated: 'Acting is something I’ve done since I was six years old, performing for my mum and my family in the living room, and I do it because my heart’s in it.

'I’ll always try to follow my heart into things I love, and modelling is not something I’m dreaming of pursuing forever.”

Lily is now said to be planning a holiday to celebrate her finals’ result.

She also scored straight As in her A-levels, gaining top grades in English, philosophy and ethics, and politics at Latymer Upper School in West London.

Please leg-go! Christina Aguilera digs out her favourite skin-tight leggings and they STILL don't do her any favours

Full frontal: Christina Aguilera's infamous black leggings again failed to do any favours in California yesterday


Despite being widely condemned the last time she dipped her toes into them, Christina Aguilera could not resist digging out her infamous skin-tight leggings again.

The 30-year-old singer and The Voice judge slipped into the impossibly tight trousers as she made her way to a studio in California, yesterday.

To make matters worse she paired the look with some mismatched accessories, consisting of silver high heels and a bright red hat.

Once again the leggings clung in all the wrong places, doing the Beautiful singer's curvaceous figure no favours.

But it did not seem to bother Christina, who grinned widely as she showed off every lump and bump.

Despite recently gaining weight, Christina is not afraid to show off her body.


Please leg-go: Many though Christina would retire her leggings after she stepped out in the unflattering attire last month, left


In fact, she went nearly nude for her latest magazine cover.

Christina had her modesty just covered with a white silk cloth and a bunch of red roses in a sultry cover shoot for this month's W Magazine.

And the singer, who has gained a fuller figure in recent months, looks surprisingly svelte posing in all her glory.


X-Tina: The Dirrty singer appeared to be enjoying flaunting her curves as she walked down the street


A few strokes of the airbrush may well have helped Chrstina achieve her slimmer look, or perhaps helped by good lighting and clever photography.

Over the past year, the diva has seen her music career take a nosedive coupled with a series of dramas in her personal life.

But in the accompanying interview, the 30-year-old opens up about her fall from grace and talks about how she is trying to turn things around.


Fashion failure: Even passersby were left scratching their heads at Christina's latest fashion choice

Pictured: The moment one of Justin Bieber's heavies 'clobbered' one of New York's finest

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER


Crowds: A melee ensued when Justin Bieber came outside to greet fans during a publicity event in New York


These pictures show the dramatic scenes as an undercover NYPD cop was allegedly taken out by one of Justin Bieber's own bodyguards.

The undercover policeman was mistaken for a crazed fan trying to attack the teenage superstar in a bizarre melee that resulted in one of Bieber's own security guards being issued with a summons.

The pint-sized singer was at an event at Macy's department store in New York when the cop was allegedly grabbed by a bodyguard as screaming teenage girls surged towards the 17-year-old.


Taken out: Bieber was at an event at Macy's department store in New York when an undercover cop was allegedly grabbed by one of his bodyguards as screaming teenage girls surged towards the 17-year-old


The plain-clothed officer stepped in to protect the Canadian heartthrob from the crowd surge when an overprotective Bieber bodyguard allegedly grabbed him and tried to pull him away from the boy.

Bieber was reportedly shaken up by the incident, which saw the bodyguard issued a summons for disorderly conduct.


Shaken up: Justin Bieber was greeting fans at a promotional event to launch his new fragrance Someday


Initial reports from the scene had suggested that a man had jumped the barricades, attacking Bieber and knocking him to the ground - but police have since denied that he was touched or hurt.

‘It was a momentary well-intentioned misunderstanding and the event went well,’ a spokesman for Bieber told the New York Post. ‘He’s completely fine and has no injuries.’

A witness said the 17-year-old Canadian singer shouted: 'What? What?' as the incident happened, before rushing back into the store and not talking to waiting reporters.


Supporters: Dozens of fans had camped out in front of the famous store for two days to get the opportunity to meet their idol


Dozens of fans had camped out in front of the famous store for two days to get the opportunity to meet their idol, who was doing a personal appearance to launch his new fragrance Someday.

Another witness told the New York Daily News that people who had been waiting for hours got too excited and began pushing the barrier down, meaning he did not even get time to wave at his fans.

Bieber tweeted this evening: ‘today went well at macy's.. the fans were AMAZING, thanks to all the fans who came out to support it was a breath of fresh air :)’

He had appeared on The View on Thursday morning and tweeted before his Macy’s appearance: 'Gonna chill..grab a bit..then see everyone at MACY's for the #SOMEDAY launch. LEGGO!!'


Bieber fever: People who had been waiting for hours got too excited and began pushing the barrier down


Earlier: Justin Bieber challenged The View presenter Elisabeth Hasselbeck to a Segway contest as he appeared on the ABC network daytime talk show this morning


Bieber's fans, known as 'Beliebers', rallied to support the singer after the incident, on the initial understanding that somebody had tried to attack him.

One young lady was so overcome by the incident that she had to be carried away by police officers.

Bieber has had other security scares including at an event in 2009 at the Roosevelt Field Mall that was cancelled after thousands of fans mobbed the shopping centre.

He tweeted to his followers to leave the mall because police threatened to arrest out of control fans.

Raw grief of Jackass star's best friend: Heartbreaking video shows inconsolable Bam Margera as he visits spot where Ryan Dunn died in fiery crash

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Heartbroken: Bam Margera returns to the spot where his best friend and Jackass co-star lost his life in a horrific car smash in the early hours of Monday morning in Philadelphia


Autopsy results reveal the crash was so violent it's impossible to determine if Dunn and passenger died from impact or from the fire that resulted

Photo emerges showing stuntman in high spirits whilst he partied at a bar shortly before crash

Co-star and best friend Bam Margera overcome with emotion as he visits crash scene

Ryan Dunn's Jackass co-star Bam Margera broke down into floods of tears as he visited the spot where his best friend lost his life in a horror 130mph car smash.

An inconsolable Bam spoke to a local news station and was so distraught he could barely put his loss into words.

'It was the worst phone call I ever got in my life waking up to that,' the 31-year-old wept.


Raw grief: Bam could barely hold it together as he gave an interview to a local news station


Margera, who was in Arizona at the time of the crash, visited the crash scene in Philadelphia on Tuesday evening.

He was visibly overcome with emotion, rocking back and forth in agony at the guardrail that the car crashed through.

'I've never lost anybody that I cared about. It's my best friend,' he told local TV station WPXI, weeping.


'Worst phone call of my life': He paid tribute to his childhood friend and asked how he would cope with the loss he wept: 'I can't, I can't'


'He was the happiest person ever, the smartest guy. He had so much talent, and he had so many things going for him. This is not right, not right.'

Margera stood at the guardrail that Dunn pierced with his Porsche Monday morning with such force that the car slammed through about 40 feet of trees before exploding into flames.

When asked how he'd get through this ordeal, Bam replied: 'I can't. I can't.'

Dunn's brother, Eric Dunn, said in an emailed statement to the AP that his family was 'devastated'.

Childhood friends: Ryan and Bam, pictured back in November 2003



Wreckage: The charred remains of the Porsche 911 GT3 is towed away as police survey the scene



Investigation: Dunn's Porsche was found engulfed in flames in woods beside the road


Margera, who appeared in her son's MTV show 'Viva La Bam' with Dunn, says he was not the type of person to get behind the wheel while drunk.

'He is going to be missed by everyone,' April tearfully told the NBC Today Show.

'I have yelled at him for lots of things but he was not a big drinker and he was always responsible as far as I know, so I cannot believe he would do that.

'I am sick because it is a waste, sick because I loved him, sick because he was talented and sick because he is gone.'

Meanwhile the passenger killed in Dunn's fatal car crash has been identified.

Police have confirmed Zachary Hartwell, 30, perished in a fireball car crash in the early hours of yesterday morning.

Hartwell, from West Chester, Philadelphia, had been with Dunn at Barnaby's and appeared in one of the last photographs to be taken of the daredevil before the accident.

The two were drinking with a third unidentified male in a Twitter picture, which was posted hours before the accident.


Speaking out: Bam Margera's mother April says she does not believe Dunn was driving drunk at the time of his death


While Hartwell was not a member of the Jackass crew, he is listed as a production assistant on the second Jackass movie.

He is also credited on IMDb as a 'car stunt driver' in Bam Margera's film Minghags.
He was reportedly a recently married Iraq war veteran

Dunn who was famous for his vulgar stunts in the multimillion-dollar TV and movie franchise Jackass, was driving his 2007 Porsche on a highway when it left the road, flipped over a guardrail and crashed into woods before bursting into flames.

Speed may have been a factor in the crash, West Goshen Township police said.

The force of impact shattered the vehicle into several twisted and blackened pieces, leaving the Porsche 911 GT3 unrecognisable except for a door that was thrown from the crash and not incinerated. A 100-foot-long tyre skid marked where the car left the road.

Police said they were able to identify Dunn through his tattoos and hair.

Dunn appeared on MTV shows Jackass and Viva La Bam and the three Jackass big-screen adaptations. He also was the star of his own MTV show, Homewrecker, and hosted Proving Ground on the G4 cable network.

G4 spokesman Dave Welch said Proving Ground, which premiered on June 11 with the second episode due to air today, was being shelved until the network could discuss its future.

Dunn's long-time friend and fellow Jackass daredevil Johnny Knoxville tweeted last night: 'Today I lost my brother Ryan Dunn. My heart goes out to his family and his beloved Angie. RIP Ryan, I love you buddy.'


Passenger: Zachery Hartwell (right) was killed in Dunn's fatal car crash yesterday. The pair were at a bar with an unidentified friend in Philadelphia before the accident


Dunn also starred in the yet-to-be-released film Living Will. The film's website describes Dunn's character as a 'party bum slacker (who) returns from the dead as a mischievous and perverted ghost'.

MTV praised Dunn's tireless humour and enthusiasm and said he would be missed.

'We are devastated by the tragic loss of Ryan Dunn - a beloved member of the MTV family for more than a decade,' said Van Toffler, president of MTV Networks Music/Films Group. 'The Jackass brotherhood will never be the same.'

Dunn was born in Ohio and moved at 15 to Pennsylvania, where he met Bam Margera on his first day of high school, according to a biography on his website.

Dunn, Margera, Christopher Raab (known as Raab Himself) and Brandon DiCamillo, under the moniker CKY for 'Camp Kill Yourself', started making videos that featured them skateboarding and performing stunts.


Where the night started: Dunn and Hartwell were both at Barnaby's in West Chester hours before the accident


Dunn was working as a welder and petrol station worker when Knoxville, a friend of Margera's through the skateboarding circuit, asked the crew to allow their videos to be part of the series Jackass, which became a hit on MTV and ran from 2000 to 2002.

Perhaps his most famous stunt, in 2002's Jackass: The Movie, involved inserting a toy car into his bottom and going to a hospital casualty unit, where he made up a story that he was in mysterious pain after passing out at a fraternity party. Dunn's X-ray from the hospital became a popular T-shirt for Jackass fans.

In a 2000 stunt, he dived into a tank at a raw sewage plant wearing flippers, a mask and a snorkel.

The bride DID wear Chanel: The Lagerfeld dress Lily Allen wore to the reception

By LAUREN PAXMAN

Evening gown: Lily Allen admires Lagerfeld's sketch and tries on her custom-designed Chanel dress, which she wore to the wedding reception


While Kate Middleton kept us guessing over her choice of wedding dress designer, Lily Allen's decision was all but confirmed months ago.

The singer hinted that Lagerfeld would be designing her gown while posing with him at Chanel's Paris Fashion Week show in March... and then confused everyone by wearing a Delphine Manivet dress down the aisle instead.

But there is a very logical explanation - like the Duchess of Cambridge, Lily had two wedding outfits, one for the ceremony and one for the reception.

The 26-year-old revealed all on her Twitter page after Lagerfeld uploaded an image of Lily wearing the white dress he had designed, along with a sketch of his creation.

The images were accompanied by a caption explaining that they were taken by Benoît Peverelli at a fitting in Chanel's Paris headquarters, 31 rue Cambon.

Fashion blogger Laura LaRue tweeted a link to Lagerfeld's picture saying: 'Confused? Me too.'


Radiant bride: Lily, with husband Sam Cooper, in the Delphine Manivet dress she wore to her wedding ceremony, which also featured transparent sleeves and detailing on the bottom of the skirt and was designed to accommodate her baby bump


Lily wrote straight back, explaining: 'I wore my BEAUTIFUL Chanel dress to our reception.'

There are many similarities between the two dresses. Both had a transparent layer which went right up to the bride's neck.

The Delphine Manivet gown was lacy, and had a sweetheart neckline underneath, while the Chanel number featured beautiful floaty sleeves that were puffy to the elbow and then tight to the wrist.

It also had intricate embroidery on the bustier, and looks like it was semi-transparent below that.

Both gowns had additional detailing on the bottom half of the big skirts.

Manivet has revealed that her gown was intentionally designed to be roomy as Lily has been trying for a baby since January.

The singer's husband, Sam Cooper, announced his wife was four months pregnant on their wedding day - to gasps of joy from his guests.

We imagine there were similar exclamations of affectionate surprise when they laid eyes on the radiant bride in each of her stunning gowns.

Let's Dance! Lady Gaga wins over a frightened young fan with a twirl at Toronto airport

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Overwhelmed: Lady Gaga poses with a shell-shocked young fan as she leaves Toronto airport today


It's said that you should never meet your idols, and that's a maxim that certainly seemed to apply for a young Lady Gaga fan in Toronto today.

The adorable youngster didn't seem to know whether to be delighted or scared by the pop superstar when she encountered her at the airport.

Gaga, real name Stefani Germanotta, was as always, dressed up to the nines in bright colours and an extravagant turquoise wig.


Wary: Gaga in her colourful attire and wig is obviously quite a scary prospect for a little one


The overall effect seemed a bit overwhelming for the little one, who seemed as much shell-shocked as star-struck.

But it was the New Yorker's scary pointed talons that made this little girl wonder if she was meeting the evil queen rather than a Disney princess.

However, the 25-year-old sensation managed to turn the encounter around by gently unleashing some of her trademark dance moves.


Cautious: The little girl seems wary of Gaga's long red talons


Bending down to replicate the child's height, Gaga tenderly offered her terrifying talons to the little girl.

The child kept a safe difference as she weighed up the character directly in front of her, as if wondering if it was safe to get closer.

Of course, once Gaga had managed to coax her nearer, she didn't offer her a poison apple, but twirled the little girl like she was Cinderella at a ball.

Confidence won, Gaga was then treated to cuddles as the child's gobsmacked parents snapped away on their camera.

The Born This Way star was leaving Toronto after performing at the MuchMusic Video Awards there this weekend.


Twirl: But the pop diva is soon amuses the younger by showing her a few trademark dance moves


For the performance the singer emerged from a cocoon, a stunt she has pulled twice already, which has prompted fans and critics alike to speculate that she's finally run out of ideas.

She entered the stage via the egg-like cocoon, just as she did at the Grammy Awards in February this year - she also popped out of a chamber during a performance on Saturday Night Live late last month.


Covered up again: Gaga seems to be moving away from the revealing outfits she's so often favoured


This time however the contraption was suspended above the ground, whereas the previous two crysalis-esque devices were laid down horizontally on the ground.

For the duration of her appearance on the Canadian awards show, Gaga remained relatively covered up in comparison to her usual outrageous get up.

And she maintained that look for her trip home, by donning the long bright dress that stunned the youngster.

No Venus! Another Williams sister fashion disaster as tennis player wears ghastly playsuit at Wimbledon

By JESSICA SATHERLEY and LAUREN PAXMAN

Tiny playsuit: Venus Williams wore a thigh-skinning playsuit - with a curiously baggy top half for her first Wimbledon game today


Venus and her sister Serena have so much in common. They are both world class tennis players... and they both have terrible fashion sense.

The older Williams sister cruised through her Court Two match against Uzbekistan's Akgul Amanmuradova this morning, but it was her tiny playsuit - rather than her powerful serve - that everyone was talking about afterwards.

The white onesie was so short you could clearly see the golden hotpants she was wearing underneath every time she bent forwards during the match.


Short shorts: The back of the playsuit was featured an on-tend cutaway, but one that is much more suited to black tie evening wear than to a sporting event


It also had a curiously baggy, and very unflattering top-half, which made her chest look saggy as she ran around the court.

But far from being something a sponsor forced the player to wear, this was an outfit from Venus' own clothing line, EleVen.

The back of the playsuit featured an on-tend cutaway, albeit one that is much more suited to black tie evening wear than to a sporting event.


In action: Venus' outfit showed off her enviable figure - and the gold hot pants she was wearing underneath


Venus did not get everything wrong though - the cotton material had a pretty leafy design woven into it which could have made a lovely sun dress.

The short cut also showed off the tennis star's enviably long legs as she took huge strides towards the net. And the strange outfit clearly did not hold the 31-year-old back, she won her sets 6-3, 6-1.


Cut above: Another view of the outfit from the rear


Yesterday, Venus' little sister, Serena, made her return to Wimbledon following a serious foot injury and blood clots in her lungs that almost ruled her out of tennis for life.

She made sure to stand out in fit form during warm ups by wearing some skin-tight pink and white tie-dye leggings.

And by the looks of the fiery stare in her eye, the US player about to give it her all during her comeback.

Serena, who is a fan of flamboyant on-court ensembles, combined her Nike leggings with a white long-sleeved T-shirt and a Nike black cap.


On-court ensemble: Serena brightened up the court during her warm ups by wearing the tie-dye leggings


She is currently ranked World No. 25 in women’s singles, but has admitted that her and her sister Venus haven’t been able to train as much for the competition as they would have liked.

Serena said: ‘We spent a lot more time together because we were both off.

‘We both haven’t played pretty much at all. It’s been good because, sometimes I hate to say it, but, when you’re down, it’s always good to see someone down with you.’


Letting her hair down: Serena of the USA was talking to the media at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club yesterday ahead of the Wimbledon Championships


Last year Serena won her fourth Wimbledon championship but afterwards suffered a serious foot injury from stepping on broken glass at a restaurant – preventing her from playing for the remainder of 2010.

In March this year she then suffered a hematoma and a pulmonary embolism but has still returned as the defending champion at Wimbledon this year.

While her sister Venus suffered from a hip muscle injury this year.

On top of Serena's medical complications, she may also have to face a showery start to Wimbledon.


Sisters in white: Serena and Venus both wore all-white tennis outfits while training over the weekend


Weather forecasters have predicted torrential rain for the first three days .
But tennis fans still braved the weather to camp outside the All England Lawn Tennis Club in south London last night.

Luckily for the players, officials are preparing to shut the £100million retractable roof on Centre Court, to prevent the rain interfering with the match.

World No. 1 Rafael Nadal, 25, of Spain will open this year’s 125th Wimbledon Championship on Centre Court.

TV daredevil and Jackass star Ryan Dunn was killed in a horrific high-speed car crash last night.

Last picture: Just hours before his death, Ryan (left) tweeted this photograph of him enjoying a night out with friends


Police said they found the burning wreckage of his 2007 Porsche 911 GT3, which was capable of reaching 190mph, in the woods off the road fully engulfed in flames.

His body was so badly burnt that he had to be identified by his tattoos, NBC Philadelphia reported.

Just hours before the accident, Dunn tweeted a picture of himself with two male friends, all of whom were holding alcoholic drinks.

Sources told TMZ that Dunn drank at least three light beers and three shots between 10.30pm and 2.10am at Barnaby's of America bar before the accident.

Dunn's name began trending on Twitter soon after the news of the crash broke, with fans and celebrities quickly expressing their condolences.

It was Margera's mother, April, who first confirmed Dunn's death by calling into Jackass members Preston Lacy and Steve-O's radio show on WMMR 93.3.

She described him as being like a son to her and said he had even called her on Mother's Day.

A tearful April said: 'We just found out a few hours ago - it is the worst possible news.

'I have not been able to talk with Bam as he is in Arizona but I cannot believe that his friend is dead – I felt like I lost one of my own sons when I heard that Ryan Dunn had died.

'Ryan was a wonderful person he really was the sweetest and nicest guy - he was like my extra son, everybody loved him.'


Tributes: Flower were laid by the side of the road in memory of the reality star who died in the crash


President of MTV Networks Music/Films Group Van Toffler said in a statement: 'We are devastated by the tragic loss of Ryan Dunn – a beloved member of the MTV family for more than a decade.

'He made us all laugh and had the tireless enthusiastic approach to life of your favourite middle school friend,' the statement continued.

'Our thoughts and deepest condolences are with Ryan’s family and friends. The Jackass brotherhood will never be the same.'

'He had a longterm girlfriend and she will be absolutely devastated - she has turned off her phone just now.

'It’s just so sad we cannot believe Ryan has gone - I’m too upset to say anything else just now.'

April said she is 'worried' about her son, adding that he is 'devastated' by the death of his firmed.

Dunn was born in Ohio and moved at age 15 to Pennsylvania, where he met Margera on his first day of high school.
