Item 8.01 Other Events

On August 24, 2007, CKX, Inc. (“CKX” or the “Company”), announced that FX Real Estate and Entertainment Inc. (formerly FX Luxury Real Estate, Inc.), its 25%-owned subsidiary, had filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to register the shares of FX Real Estate and Entertainment common stock that will be distributed to CKX’s stockholders. The plan to distribute the shares was previously announced on June 1, 2007 in connection with CKX’s investment in FX Real Estate and Entertainment’s business and its acceptance of an offer to be acquired by 19X, Inc. for $13.75 per share. CKX stockholders will receive one share of FX Real Estate and Entertainment common stock for every ten shares of CKX common stock owned on the record date for the distribution, which is expected to be ten days after the registration statement is declared effective by the SEC. The distribution of shares of FX Real Estate and Entertainment to CKX stockholders is expected to occur approximately 20 days after the registration statement is declared effective by the SEC. The shares being distributed will represent 25% of the outstanding shares of common stock of FX Real Estate and Entertainment. The distribution is not contingent upon the closing of the proposed merger transaction that will result in the sale of CKX. For more information about both the distribution and the proposed sale of CKX, please see the Company’s Current Reports on Form 8-K, dated June 1, 2007 and July 9, 2007, as amended by the Form 8-K/A filed with the SEC on August 16, 2007, and the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 18, 2007.
