K-pop superstar T.O.P. in intensive care after overdose

He was performing mandatory military service as a policeman when he was found unconscious at his station.

The 29-year-old is not in a life-threatening condition, reports say, but is unresponsive.

T.O.P., whose real name is Choi Seung-hyun, is a member of Bigbang, one of the world's most successful boy bands.

The group's top five videos on YouTube have a combined 935 million views.

"Choi's condition is very bad," one of his doctors told the AFP news agency.

Prince's death being investigated as possible overdose

A law enforcement official tells The Associated Press (via Chicago Tribune) that investigators are looking into whether Prince died from a drug overdose and whether a doctor was prescribing him drugs in the weeks before his death. The report adds that investigators are also looking at whether a doctor was on the plane that made an emergency landing in Illinois less than a week before the musician was found dead.
