Vitoria Beckam in action!

Victoria Beckham has reportedly infuriated her fellow Spice Girls by booking the best row of seats at the band's UK concerts.



Posh Spice Victoria has a block booking in the front row of London's O2 arena for her family so they have the best views available.

However, Mel B, Geri Halliwell, Emma Bunton and Mel C are said to be furious that their families have been relegated to cheaper seats, which were allocated by the promoters.

A source said: "Victoria got in first and made sure her nearest and dearest would have the best seats in the house to see the Spice comeback. "She booked a whole row just for her family so they had the best view of the stage.

"The girls' jaws dropped when they found they had been beaten to the punch by Victoria."

The band opened their London shows on Saturday (15.12.07) to a sold-out audience.

Victoria's three sons, Brooklyn, eight, Romeo, five, and two-year-old Cruz, were in the crowd accompanied by Victoria's parents, Jackie and Tony, her sister Louise, brother Christian and her nieces and nephews. Her soccer star husband David was also in the audience but was sat away from the family.

The boys also watched their mother in action the following night and on Tuesday (18.12.07) they appeared on the stage with her during the band's hit song 'Mama'.

They were joined by Mel B's daughters, Phoenix, eight, and eight-month-old Angel, and Emma's four-month-old baby boy Beau.

The only Spice child missing was Geri Halliwell's 19-month-old daughter Bluebell, who is ill with chickenpox.

Mel C is the only member of the bands yet to become a mother.

Marlyn Manson to sue ex-bandmate!

Marilyn Manson has struck back against a former bandmate by countersuing for breach of contract.



The rocker claimed in court papers filed Wednesday in Los Angeles Superior Court that keyboardist Stephen Bier did not carry out obligations to take part in master recordings, concerts and the selling of band merchandise.

Bier — known by his stage name, Madonna Wayne Gacy — filed his own breach of contract lawsuit against Manson in August seeking more than $20 million.

Bier claimed Manson stiffed him on salary and medical support while using band profits to live a lavish lifestyle. He claimed Manson used the funds to buy a mansion, pay for drug treatment, produce a movie, buy Nazi memorabilia and hold a fancy wedding.

Manson's complaint claimed the pair's business partnership was dissolved in 1996 after the singer became the clear leader of the band.

Although Bier has been paid income for CD royalties, live performances and income from band merchandising, he has "failed to render services to the best of his ability and in a practical and cooperative manner," according to Manson's suit.

His suit accuses Bier of showing up late for band recordings, performances and promotional appearances, and giving confidential band information to the media and other people without Manson's consent.

Manson is seeking unspecified general and special damages. He also is seeking a court order preventing Bier from releasing more confidential band information.

Messages left Thursday for Bier's attorney and Manson's attorney were not immediately returned.

Kaiser Chiefs show!

Kaiser Chiefs are to play a show in their home city of Leeds tonight, it has been confirmed.



The band will support The Cribs on the final night of their three date run of charity concerts at the Brudenell Social Club to support cystic fibrosis organisations.

Ricky Wilson and co follow Franz Ferdinand and Kate Nash in appearing alongside the indie three-piece.

The Cribs have been playing their album back catalogue at the gigs, and will run through this year's "Man's Needs, Woman's Need's, Whatever" tonight.

Kylie Minogue play Elland Road stadium in Leeds on May 24, 2008.

Jamie Lynn Spears Wedding



Jamie Lynn Spears and Casey Aldridge will not have a shotgun wedding, his Baptist minister uncle insists.



The 16-year-old actress - the sister of Britney Spears - is pregnant by her 19-year-old boyfriend, but his uncle, Pastor Odus Jackson, is adamant they will not rush into marriage.

Jackson said: "They may or may not get married. You just never know. "I hope they will stick it out and get married for the child's sake and their sake. But if they're not in love and it was just a fantasy, they don't need to make the same mistake twice."

Jackson, who is a pastor at Galilee First Baptist Church in Gloster, Mississippi, believes Casey should not have been allowed to go and live near Jamie Lynn in California.

He added to People magazine: "He was a typical country boy growing up. He's never given the family a whole lot of problems - no more than most teenagers.

"To me, personally, when he was allowed to go out to California part of his senior year. You know when you put boy and girl together, it don't work.

Testosterone is tough to control.

"We know that it's national news, more than just a boy-girl mess up. But we're not used to media down here."

Moby is frustrated!



Moby once confused a hotel receptionist who thought he wanted a groupie sent to his room.



The musician phoned the hotel lobby to ask for a fan for his room because he was very hot.

However, the receptionist at the hotel in Kiev, Ukraine, misunderstood and thought he wanted a fan of the female variety.

Moby told the New York Post newspaper: "It was very hot in the hotel and they had no air-conditioning. At four in the morning, I called the front desk and asked if they could send up a fan. The guy put me on hold, and came back, and said, 'There are no fans.'

"We had this long confused conversation and finally he said he was sorry, but there are no women in the lobby. He thought I meant a groupie.

Eventually I was able to explain to him that I meant a plastic thing that spun in the air. So he was able to finally send up an actual plastic fan."

iTUNES will be sued!

Music manager Simon Cowell is considering launching legal proceedings against iTunes - after fans were prevented from downloading one of his top client's singles.



Massive demand for X Factor winner Leon Jackson's debut single caused the music firm's servers to crash shortly after it went on sale on Saturday.

As a result thousands of fans were unable to purchase the single, When You Believe, which logged a disappointing 36,669 sales in three days - and record label bosses are reportedly fuming.

An insider at the Cowell-owned SonyBMG tells The Sun, "Everybody here is up in arms.

"There's been a monumental cock up. Simon is hugely disappointed about the situation and is considering launching legal proceedings.

"Everybody is really upset for Leon and don't want technical malfunctions to mar his big week."

A spokesperson for iTunes declined to comment.

Amy WineHouse is crazy!

Amy Winehouse won't be giving her hubby a Christmas hug. In fact, she's been told to stay well clear. She's been banned from her 'no-strings' visits to Blake Fielder-Civil after he failed a drugs test.



Amy can only see him from behind a glass screen with no physical contact.

So it looks like Blake will be that little bit lonelier as he serves his time in London's Pentonville prison, where he's waiting for his trial to start over assault and trial-fixing allegations.

It seems that the clink decided on the new visiting rules after he tested positive for a Class A drug, thought to be heroin.

An insider told The Sun: "As a precaution, the governor has banned Amy from having any more open visits with Blake.

"They now have to meet in a room separated by a bullet-proof glass screen."

A pal said: "She's paranoid and shaking every time she goes there and has decided to give it a miss for a while."

A Prison Service spokeswoman said: "We do not discuss individual prisoners."

Colplay won't write more Chriustmas songs!

Coldplay love writing Christmas songs, but have given up because they are so bad at it.



The Yellow hitmakers have decided to stick to recording cover versions of classic festive hits instead.

Frontman Chris Martin writes on the band's website, "We love Christmas songs, but every time we try and write one it's awful. So we cover them. Well, once or twice actually.

"The one song I would most liked to have written is 'Fairytale of New York' by de bloody (sic) Pogues of Ireland."

The group have posted their version of The Pretenders' 1984 hit 2000 Miles on the Internet as a Christmas present for fans.

Lindsay is nymphomaniac!

Lindsay Lohan is a "nymphomaniac", according to ex-lover Riley Giles.



The 'Mean Girls' actress, who met Riley at Utah's Cirque Lodge rehab centre in August, has reportedly become addicted to sex since quitting drugs.

Riley said: "Lindsay is definitely a nymphomaniac. She is wild in bed. We would have sex a couple of times in the day and then through the night.

Lindsay was insatiable. She would demand sex again and again. "Sex became a part of Lindsay's recovery. We didn't get out of bed for days.

If you have an addictive personality like Lindsay you need to replace the high you got from drugs."

Riley also claims Lindsay was in love with him and the pair planned to buy a house and settle down.

The 24-year-old professional snowboarder said: "Lindsay would tell me that she loved me and I would say that to her too. She told me she had only ever had three serious boyfriends and I was one of them.

"We even planned to get a house and live together in Utah. We were together every day for a month and I could tell she loved me by the way she cried when we said goodbye at the airport."

The relationship ended soon after Lindsay, 21, returned to Los Angeles in November and threw herself back into her hectic movie career.

Riley, who claims he still speaks to Lindsay every day, added to Britain's News of the World newspaper: "Her whole attitude changed when she got back to Los Angeles. She is surrounded by movie stars and does whatever she wants. There are a lot of fake people. I don't think it is healthy."

Since the split, Lindsay has been romantically linked to Paris Hilton's former lover Stavros Niarchos, Heath Ledger and a man only known as 'Spencer'.

Lindsay is said to have dumped Riley because he was jealous of her fame.

Snoop Dog goes mad!

Snoop Dogg gave up the "girls and nightlife" of Hollywood after realising the value of his family.



The rapper-and-actor, who is about to star with his wife and children in new reality TV show 'Father Hood', has confessed three years ago he almost left spouse Shante for a life of wild partying, until he came to appreciate his "irreplaceable" home life.

Snoop confessed: "I was going to split up with my wife. My wife wasn't going to split up with me. You know, I was caught up. I was caught up with Hollywood, all the girls and the nightlife.

"I thought I was the man, and I was willing to give up what I had at home for that until I realised that what I had at home was irreplaceable.

"Sometimes you lose focus because Hollywood can throw you off track. That's why you now see me doing things like this television show and my own football league, and the positive things I do, because I'm back aware again."

In 2004, Snoop - real name Calvin Broadus - filed for divorce from Shante after almost seven years of marriage.

The 36-year-old star said the main reason for the reconciliation was that he wanted to be a good father to their three children, Corde, Cordell and Cori.

He said: "I just don't want another man raising my kids. That was the main goal. I had kids with my wife because I wanted to be with my wife. And those three babies are all wanted, and I wanted to be with them."

Spice girls rock again!

The Spice Girls are set to meet a fan who handed in Mel B's bracelet to security after it flew off during their show at London's O2 arena last Tuesday (18.12.07).



Victoria has personally thanked the fan, known only as David, for handing in the expensive piece of jewellery, and revealed all five girls - Emma Bunton, Mel C, Geri Halliwell, Mel B and herself - will spend time with David before one of their 2008 shows to show him how grateful they are.

Victoria wrote on The Spice Girls official website: "Mel B lost her bracelet when it flew off into the audience during the show on Tuesday night and we want to say a big thank you to David who picked it up and contacted our management company to tell us that he had it.

"We're really grateful to him for being so honest and we'll be meeting up with him before one of our concerts in January to thank him in person."

The newly-brunette singer also revealed she is looking forward to spending Christmas with her soccer star husband David and their three sons - Brooklyn, eight, Romeo, five, and two-year-old Cruz.

She said: "I'm really looking forward to Christmas. It will be great to spend time with David, the boys and my family. We are taking the boys to see Father Christmas and they are so excited!"

Frank Sinatra will have his own stamp!

John Potter, who called the crooner "an extraordinary entertainer whose life and work left an indelible impression on American culture."

"His recordings, concert performances and film work place him among America's top artists, and his legendary gift for transforming popular song into art is a rare feat that few have been able to replicate," Potter said.

The stamp image will be unveiled next Wednesday — Sinatra's birthday — at a ceremony in Beverly Hills, Calif.

While the stamp will be for first-class mail, the rate has not been announced. Currently the letter rate is 41 cents but the postal governing board is thought likely to raise the price next year.

Under new rules a hike in the letter rate would be limited to the rate of inflation, probably to 42 cents if it does go up in the spring.

During his career Sinatra won an Oscar, several Grammy awards and was recognized at the Kennedy Center honours in 1983. President Reagan awarded him the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1985.

He was born in Hoboken, N.J. in 1915 and died in 1998. The Hoboken Post Office was renamed in his honor in 2002.

World Music Journalist Tom Terrell Loses Battle with Cancer

Tom Terrell's sister, Bevadine, informed family and friends today that Tom's battle with cancer ended this morning, November 29, at 5:05am. "I'm happy to say that Tom's final days were pain free and peaceful," said family friend Sean Barlow (Afropop worldwide). "He was constantly surrounded by his loving family and friends during his time in the hospital/hospice. The outpouring of love helped Tom stay positive and strong through to the end."

Tom discovered earlier this year he had prostate cancer that had spread to his bones. He was without health insurance which made his situation more difficult.



A DC native, Tom Terrell worked in the music industry mix since the early 80s. He served as Publicity Manager for Verve Records, NPR Commentator, liner note writer and contributor to Global Rhythm, Jazziz, Vibe, Trace and Essence, DJ at DC’s 9:30 Club and Alt Rock Champions WHFS-FM.

"You may have heard his idiosyncratic reviews of Afropop and world music CDs on NPR's "All Things Considered," said Sean Barlow. "He charmed ten million people at a pop! Tom was a pioneering world music journalist whose chops, taste and gregarious sense of humor won over his audience and colleagues alike."

Linking park - bleed it out

Yeah here we go for the hundredth time,
Hand grenade pins in every line
Throw 'em up and let something shine
Going out of my fucking mind
Filthy mouth, no excuse
Find a new place to hang this noose
String me up from atop these roofs
Knot it tight so I won't get loose
Truth is you can stop and stare
Bled myself out and no one cares
Dug a trench out, laid down there
With a shovel up out to reach somewhere
Yea someone pour it in,
Make it a dirt dance floor again
Say your prayers and stomp it out
When they bring that chorus in

I bleed it out
Digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out
Digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out
Digging deeper just to throw it away
Just to throw it away
Just to throw it away

I bleed it out
Go, stop the show
Chop your words in a sloppy flow
Shotgun opera, lock and load
Cock it back and then watch it go
Mama help me, I've been cursed
Death is rolling in every verse
Candypaint on his brand new hearse
Can't contain him, he knows he works
Fuck this hurts, I won't lie
Doesn't matter how hard I try
Half the words don't mean a thing
And I know that I won't be satisfied
So why, try ignoring him
Make your dirt dance floor again
Say your prayers and stomp it out
When they bring that chorus in

I bleed it out
I've opened up these scars
I'll make you face this
I pulled myself so far


I'll make you face this now
