While Amy Winehouse is on vacation, the drug addicts find ways to break into her Camden home and rob her blind. The thieves reportedly kicked in the padlocked door and escaped with a flat screen TV, 5 guitars and some digital recording equipment. Some of the items have been recovered after being found discarded nearby. Some of the stuff can be replaced but sources say “Amy is devastated. Some of the guitars are irreplaceable due to their sentimental value. The flat is in a real state. It had been cleaned up in preparation for her return.” Wino is supposed to return to London soon to continue recording her third album.

Britney Spears will be celebrating her twenty-seventh birthday this year with the release of her sixth studio album, Circus.

“Womanizer” video:

Has Britney Spears ever shown erratic behavior in public ever?

The sizzling hot “Crazy” singer has recently shown her regret on her much-publicized unpredictable and inconsistent behavior in public. She also discussed her loneliness in a forthcoming video.

Britney Spears very openly discussed her irresponsible attitude in the past saying, “I sit there and I’ll look back and I’m like: I’m a smart person. What the hell was I thinking?”

The ninety minutes duration film which is titled “For the Record” is produced in partnership with MTV.

The pop queen also said, “I’ve been through a lot in the past two or three years, and there’s a lot that people don’t know. Sometimes I think I get kind of lonely because you don’t open the gate up that much, you know I mean?”

She further added, “You’re guarded. You have to be that way, so I’m kind of stuck in this place and it’s like: How do you deal? And you just cope, and that’s what I do. I just cope with it, every day.”

The film will be telecasted on MTV on November 30, two days before the release of her new album, “Circus”.

I hope that Britney learns some lessons from her “bright” past and does not repeat her mistakes in future. She is definitely THE BEST.

Scarlett Johansson is going full steam ahead with her album of little known, but critically beloved, songs by Tom Watts plus one original song. The record is set to drop in stores in May and none other than music legend David Bowie provides background vocals on two tracks. And if it’s anything to go by, Bowies swears that Scarlett is really good. He says on his official website that “The songs are great, really good Tom Waits stuff, and Scarlett’s performances are mystical and twice cool.” Is he talking about Scarlett’s singing or her boobs? I’m a little confused. There’s a double standard there if you read it carefully.

New mom Christina Aguilera just posted this cute graphic on her official website and finally gave us details about her happy baby news. Max Liron Bratman was born on Saturday night and not Friday like originally reported. She also posted a message and a video for all her fans.

The singer put together a special video for the song ‘Save Me From Myself’ which came off of her ‘Back to Basics’ album. The video even features actual footage from her and husband Jordan’s personal wedding video. Christina says that it was a little something to say ‘thank you’ for the undying love and support.

Nicole Kidman accompanied her husband Keith Urban and shared a tender moment with him on the red carpet at the 2007 ARIA Awards which was held on Sunday. It’s Australia’s version of the Grammy Awards. The awards ceremony was held at the Acer Arena at the Sydney Olympic Park complex.

While the whole show was about music, Nicole unintentionally stole the spotlight on the red carpet as she signed autographs and greeted fans. The spotlight returned to Keith later on in the night though when he was awarded the best country album trophy. It was his third time to win the award.

Nancy Wilson is hardly the retiring type, even though she is trying to spend more time with her grandchildren these days.

Last year, the singer retired from touring, but she continues to record — her last album “Turned to Blue” won the Grammy for Best Jazz Vocal Album earlier this year — and perform selected concert dates.

On Friday night, she found herself sharing the Carnegie Hall stage with many old friends — including three of the top vocalists on the current jazz scene, Nnenna Freelon, Dianne Reeves and Kurt Elling, as well as guest musicians such as violinist Regina Carter — for a concert called “Nancy Wilson’s Swinging 70th Birthday Party,” a highlight of this year’s JVC Jazz Festival.

“It’s really fine to let everyone know what 70 can be,” said Wilson, whose birthday actually was Feb. 20, at the start of a program celebrating milestones in her 55-year career. “It doesn’t get much better than this.”

After Freelon spiritedly swung her way through “They Can’t Take That Away From Me,” the younger singer took the opportunity to thank Wilson for mentoring her years ago, calling her “an angel in my life.”

Turning to the svelte, silver-haired Wilson, she quipped, “If this is what 70 is all about, I can’t wait.”

Elling paid tribute to the 1962 “Nancy Wilson/Cannonball Adderley” album, considered among the best jazz vocal recordings of all time, by performing the soulful “Save Your Love for Me.”

Forget the rumors. For R&B singer Tyrese, the truth is just as interesting. I’m engaged say tyrese, but the chap’s not going reveal the name just as yet. Tyrese, 28, rumored to be engaged to Brandy, is actually engaged to somebody else – and he’s expecting his first child too. His first album Tyrese went platinum in 1998 with hit singles “Sweet Lady” and “Lately.” His break-out acting role was the lead in John Singleton’s Baby Boy in 2001 with follow-up roles in 2 Fast 2 Furious and Four Brothers with Mark Wahlberg in 2005. What’s to do with the name of his fiancée he should be happy telling her name and show us the person who he likes so much?

They say music tames the savage beast.  Perhaps it also can unite people about a common tragedy.  At least that is what R Kelly is banking on. In tribute to the victims and their families, R Kelly has written “Rise Up” a charity single.  All proceeds from the sale of the song will go to the families that have lose so much.  His new album is due out May 29^th, and people are speculating the Double Up will also have the new single on it.

 To hear a snippet of the song, check out R Kelly’s MySpace here.  Listening to it, I’m not exactly how many copies of such a mediocre song will actually sell.  While there check out the pics of the singer in one of the oddest looking leather jackets I’ve ever seen.  It looks like a crocodile crawled up on his chest and died.  Seriously, that’s what you chose to wear to work that day?  Maybe this good press will counteract his desire to piss on little girls.  Who knows.

Kylie who battled breast cancer in 2005 had a long relationship with Olivier Martinez but they broke up two months ago due to the infidelity of Olivier and the continuous rumors about the problems they had.

A friend close to them has said that Kylie and Calvin have spent much time around the preparation for the album and now they are really close. The source also says that Calvin makes Kylie happy and he is the man who always makes her laugh. Maybe Kylie has met true love. Who knows?

A representative of Kylies denied that she is dating Calvin Harris despite their frequent meetings but only the time (and the paparazzi) will show.
