Pelakon jelita, Nora Danish menafikan dakwaan yang mengatakan dia menyambut hari jadinya yang ke-32 di sebuah kelab malam di Bandar Utama, Selangor dan telah berjaya meloloskan diri apabila kelab malam tersebut diserbu pihak berkuasa.

"Saya tidak pernah berselindung malah apa jua aktiviti termasuk sambutan hari jadi saya yang ke-32 pada 7 Mac lalu juga saya ada muat naik di laman sosial Instagram saya.

"Gambar-gambar yang dimuat naik itu jelas menunjukkan saya menyambut hari jadi di sebuah restoran sebab ada meja makan dan setiap meja makan juga tertera nama para jemputan.

"Justeru, sekali lagi ingin saya tegaskan, ia bukan diraikan di kelab malam seperti yang disebarkan di laman-laman sosial," katanya kepada Kosmo!

Ibu kepada seorang anak itu menjadi bualan ramai apabila dia dikatakan telah menyewa sebuah bilik bernilai RM5,000 di sebuah kelab malam mewah untuk meraikan hari jadinya bersama teman, namun sempat meloloskan diri sebaik pihak berkuasa menyerbu premis yang tidak berlesen itu.

Michael Schumacher Showing 'Small Signs' of Recovery From Crash Coma

Michael Schumacher's family have been encouraged by "small signs" that he will wake up from his ski crash coma, a spokeswomen said.

Sabine Kehm said in a written statement there was reason to remain hopeful, despite reports last week that doctors believed only a "miracle" could save the seven-time F1 world champion.

Kehm said: "We are and remain confident that Michael will pull through and will wake up."

"There sometimes are small, encouraging signs, but we also know that this is the time to be very patient."

Schumacher remains in Grenoble University Hospital where doctors have spent weeks trying to lift him from his coma. But the wake up process has taken far longer than the standard two weeks.

Kehm last week denied reports that waking Schumacher from the coma had been abandoned by doctors.

She said: "Michael is still in the wake up phase. The situation has not changed.

"Any medical information published which is not confirmed by the team of doctors treating Michael or his management has to be considered as not valid."

Schumacher suffered catastrophic brain injuries when he cracked his head on a rock while skiing in the French Alps resort of Meribel, last December.

Since being admitted to hospital in nearby Grenoble, he has reported battled a lung infection and his family have been hit by a death rumour online, which prompted a rare denial from the medical team.
