he pop superstar - who is a follower of controversial religion Kabbalah, a mystical off-shoot of Judaism - says that tom cruise shouldn`t be judged because of his religion.

She told New York magazine: "I don't care if people worship turtles or frogs! All I care about is whether they are good people - and Tom is a good person. He gets a raw deal, just like the orphans in Malawi get a raw deal. I think a lot of marginalised people get a raw deal."

Madonna - who adopted Malawian David Banda in 2006 says that the authorities were nice to her because of her fame - also insists people are too wary of individuals who perform good deeds.

The 49-year-old singer, who was raised a Catholic, said: "I think people are just strangely suspicious of those who want to do something good. Yes, there are children in the US and UK who need to be given a home, but no ones going to die in an orphanage in America."

Mark Mills – who Heather has claimed is a 'schizo' who viciously beat her – vehemently denies her accusations, and has revealed footage of his daughter playing happily on a family holiday to Wales.

Mark – who has trouble speaking after a stroke - told Channel 4 documentary 'Heather Mills: What Really Happened': 'There was no violence. I’m convinced.'

The 64-year-old has not seen Heather for 20 years, and insists her tales of living in fear of his violent temper are a complete fantasy. The documentary also features Heather’s former friend claiming they used to act out lesbian romps for up to £10,000 a time.

Denise Hewitt says the pair worked in a gang of girls who were 'passed round' among rich men, and had 'full on sex' with their customers.

She said: 'We went in to high-class prostitution behind closed doors. It was usually girly-girly scenes because 99.9 per cent of men like a girly-girly scene.'

Denise claims their clients included powerful Australian magnate Kerry Packer and a Saudi prince. She also said Heather was desperate to marry now ex-husband Sir Paul McCartney.

Denise said: 'She said, 'I’ll give him an ultimatum and if he doesn’t marry me within say, eight months, 10 months, I’m going to leave him.’ '

Last month, Heather was awarded £24.3 million in her divorce settlement with The Beatles legend. The revelations will be aired in the UK on Channel 4 at 10pm tonight (22.04.08).(music-news.com)

Instead of flowers, the Diaz family asked mourners to donate money to conservation foundations Surfrider.org or Reefcheck.org in Emilio’s name.(music-news.com)

The Spice Girls star - who recently starred in a series of adverts for US fashion designer Marc Jacobs - left Los Angeles fans disappointed after allegedly turning down the opportunity to promote the fashion collection in person.

Fraser Ross, who owns Los Angeles boutique Kitson, told Britain's Star magazine: "I'm fighting with Victoria's people. We have customers asking if she will come in. She lives here - she really should come out and support her fans."

Victoria's spokesperson says the mother-of-three's hectic schedule makes it impossible for her to visit every store. The representative said: "Sadly, all of the stockists around the globe have been requesting in-store signings and it isn't possible to visit every store."

Meanwhile, Victoria's appearance on the cover of British Vogue magazine's April issue has been blasted by fashion industry professionals.

One critic said: "Normally Vogue is all about what's hip and what's not, and features a stunning Amazon of a woman on the cover associated with cutting-edge fashion.

"Instead, we get a modestly talented dancer who likes clothes and was lucky enough to engineer her way into one of the biggest girl groups in the world."(music-news.com)

The 'Toxic' star is claimed to have been preening herself while behind the wheel of her white Mercedes when she ran into the back of a Nissan car at 8.18pm on a Los Angeles freeway.

According to the California Highway Patrol (CHP) accident report: "The collision occurred when the driver of the Mercedes, driving in the number three lane, in stop and go traffic failed to observe the vehicle directly ahead of her come to a complete stop.

"She attempted to brake but failed to stop her vehicle prior to colliding into the rear of the Nissan in front of her." CHP Officer Patrick Kimball added: "Britney's car collided into the rear of a Nissan, which in turn hit another car."

The 21-year-old driver of the Nissan car told gossip website TMZ.com he had seen the 26-year-old singer putting on her make-up minutes before the crash, but was unsure whether she was still doing so at the time of the crash.

At the scene of the crash, officers gave mother-of-two Britney a field sobriety test which returned a negative result. Later that evening, Britney and her mother Lynne were driven by Britney's bodyguards to West Hollywood restaurant Dominick's for dinner.

While no injuries were reported, the Nissan driver has confirmed he is considering seeing a chiropractor about a back injury he claimed was caused by the accident.

A source told Britain's Closer magazine: "Jennifer has always been a workaholic and she has applied the same attitude to her post-pregnancy regime. Because raising twins is so demanding, she gets up at 4am to fit it all in.

The pair – who have been together for over 10 years and have two children, eight-year-old Lily-Rose and six-year-old Jack – have always insisted they don’t feel the need to legalise their relationship, but French singer Vanessa is now keen to tie the knot.

A source close to the couple is quoted on website MSNBC as saying: 'Vanessa recently told Johnny that she would love to have a wedding. Johnny loves Vanessa very much, and he said if that’s what would make her happy, then he would marry her.'

'Pirates of the Caribbean’ star Johnny – who recently said the couple were 'for all intents and purposes married' – is planning to have the ceremony in Georgia to make it convenient for his family who live in Florida. The source added: 'Lily-Rose and Jack are really excited about it.

He said: 'It would be a shame to ruin her last name! It's so perfect - Vanessa Paradis. So beautiful. It would be such a drag to stick her with Paradis-Depp. It's like a flat note!

The 'Toxic' singer - who lost all visitation rights to two-year-old Sean Preston and 18-month-old Jayden James in January following a stand-off with police - has recently had limited access to the boys and is now showing signs of responsible parental behaviour.

Mark Vincent Kaplan, lawyer for Britney's ex-husband Kevin Federline, who currently has sole custody, told America's OK! magazine: "Britney's progress over the last two months is good. But it's premature to say that two months shows a pattern of consistency.

"We need to see a steady, consistent trend of behaviour for a while. The goal is consistency over time with nothing at all out of the ordinary." Once Britney has proved she is a suitable mother, Kaplan says Kevin is keen for her to be involved in the boys' everyday lives.

He said: "Kevin's goal involves primary custody but also involves his desire to see Britney become, over time, a solid and substantial figure in her boys' lives. And she is inching toward that."

Earlier this year, Britney was sectioned at a Los Angeles psychiatric hospital following her bizarre behaviour. Her father Jamie is currently in control of all her affairs.(music-news.com)

An official has deemed the singer a suitable mother, after visiting the London home Madonna shares with husband Guy Ritchie and children Lourdes and Rocco.

It was decided it would be "in the best interests" of David, two, to stay with the couple.

The '4 Minutes' singer caused controversy when she brought then one-year-old David home from the African country in October 2006.

Critics claimed she had been given preferential treatment because of her star status despite Malawian laws which prevent non-citizens from adopting.

Madonna's lawyers have requested her court appearance should be delayed from next week until the end of April because she has prior engagements in the US.

The rapper, real name Curtis Jackson, wants Shaniqua Tompkins and their son Marquise Jackson to leave the property in Long Island.

In February, a judge reduced Tompkins' monthly support payments from $25,000 to $6,700 on the condition they would partly use the money in a bid to find a new place to live.

But 50 is now claiming Tompkins - who also lives with a daughter from another relationship - didn't even attempt to look for a new residence, and is taking advantage of the situation as the house is still in his name and he continues to pay all the bills.

However, Tompkins' lawyer Paul Catsandonis is expected to argue today that her client cannot be evicted from the property as she is not officially a tenant, because she never had a lease agreement and consequently has never paid rent.

Catsandonis will also claim Tompkins was initially promised the house by 50, but the rapper changed his mind before closing the sale.
A representative for 50 refused to comment on the case. (music-news.com)

Hove Festival, Norway, returns for its second year from June 23rd to June 27th. Hove Festival is a relative newcomer to the European festival map, but is already competing respectably with the other two main Scandinavian festivals Hultsfred and Roskilde.
With over 15,000 visitors each day, Hove was already in its first year the biggest festival in Norway.

Last year’s debut could also boast a carbon neutral status –zero carbon emissions – and the festival takes its environmental responsibilities seriously, collaborating closely with environmental groups such as Bellona from the planning stages. Nature is a key word here, with its idyllic location on the beautiful island of Tromøya outside the city of Arendal on the scenic Norwegian south coast, previously more known for its many naturalist painters than for its allegiance to 'the devil’s music'. This is a policy that will be continued in 2008.

US rap superstar Jay Z is the latest headliner to be confirmed for this fabulous Norwegian festival.

The gig at Hove offers an extremely rare chance to catch the American rapper at a European festival.

Jay Z joins an already truly eclectic line up, consisting of everything from Black Metal legends Dimmu Borgir through to breakthrough dance acts like Boys Noize and Simian Mobile Disco. Indie/Myspace darlings Black Kids and Joe Lean And The Jing Jang Jong will feature alongside Brit superstars Babyshambles and US metal teen darlings Avenged Sevenfold. Of course a wide selection of Norwegian home-grown talent will also appear with the electronic pop sounds of Familjen to the sounds of art-tech-head Kim Hiorthøy. Scando-rock godfathers The Hellacopters and the post-everything Ungdomsskulen are also confirmed, with more great headliners being added daily in the weeks to come.

The British singer is desperate lend his voice to the opening of the latest 007 adventure 'Quantum of Solace', but accepts he will have to get past current favourite Amy Winehouse.

He said in an interview with ITV.com: "I think trying to do a themed song for a film is great, a song that encapsulates what the whole film is about. "

Bond would be a great one. To be honest I know Amy Winehouse is being hotly-tipped for it, which would be great if she gets to do that, but the Bond films are an institution in themselves and you'd love to, as an artist, get involved with something like that. It would be great to be involved".

Sir Paul McCartney - whose band Wings created classic Bond theme 'Live and Let Die' for the movie of the same name in 1973 - recently tipped Amy for the job.

He said: "I think Amy Winehouse would do a really good job with the Bond theme. My advice to her would be not to try and rhyme 'Solace' with anything - that's too hard."

The 'Umbrella' singer, who launched a campaign last month to find a bone marrow donor for mother-of-two Lisa Gershowitz Flynn, says finding a match for Lisa was a "miracle".

She said: "There are no words to express how happy I am for Lisa and her family. I am thankful she found a donor and I feel honoured to be a part of such an amazing miracle."

Rihanna was so moved by Lisa's story she joined forces with DKMS, the world's leading bone marrow donor centre, to find her a match.

The 41-year-old New York lawyer was diagnosed with acute myelogenous leukaemia, a fast-growing cancer of the blood and bone marrow last November, and was given just four to six weeks to find a donor.

Following Rihanna's public plea for help, 5,000 potential donors contacted DKMS. Lisa is now preparing for her bone marrow transplant.

Rihanna added to People magazine: "This blessing has continued to keep me aware of how precious life really is. I will be praying for Lisa and her family as they move into a hopeful future."

Lisa, who has a five-year-old son Michael and three-year-old daughter Alexandra, was overjoyed by the donor response. She previously said: "The English language does not have words that are adequate to thank someone for working to save your life.

Please continue to spread the word about how important it is to fill the bone marrow registry with donors to save others." (music-news)

Freddie - who almost lost an arm and leg chopped in the horrific incident which occurred in Aldershot, Hampshire - said: "She's my guardian angel. She's always stood by me, even when things got really bad. I want to marry her. I'll get down on both knees if I have to."

Amelle admits the attack has left her "in a dark hole" which she is desperate to escape from.

She said: "All this bad stuff has made me a person I don't want to be. I feel paranoid and wary, but that's not me. I still feel like I'm in a dark hole.

"I'm desperate to get out of it, but something's changed."

It has been claimed the incident could have been a revenge attack related to a fight Freddie was involved in at a Camberley nightclub.(music-news)

The Spice Girls star - who first fell out with Britney when the 'Toxic' star reportedly refused to sit next to her at prestigious Los Angeles' hotel Chateau Marmont last year - has now blasted the 26-year-old for not having any personal input into her perfume line.

Speaking about the launch of her new dVb denim range for men, Victoria said: "I'm a complete control freak and I want everything to be perfect. I'm not doing a Britney Spears and just putting my name on something and saying, 'Sell this perfume.'

"This is a real passion of mine. People think all I do is go shopping like a miserable cow, but, in actual fact, I work bloody hard."

Mother-of-three Victoria also revealed how she likes her husband, soccer star David Beckham, to wear his denims.

She added: "I think guys should wear jeans big and baggy, with a big pair of boots or flip-flops - exactly how you see David when he's out in his jeans and T-shirt.

"Do not pull them up tight and have your bulge showing. Let it hang! I didn't want anything too tight around the crotch. That really repulses me. It might be fashionable, but you are not going to get that from dVb."

Victoria recently revealed she would hate to have Britney's life, adding: "I could never live a life like Britney Spears, who is under the spotlight every day. "I couldn't do that. I would go stir crazy. I need my privacy with my husband and children otherwise I'd just go loopy."(music-news)

Robbie Williams is furious Paris Hilton is his new neighbour.
The 'Angels' singer - who has a house in Los Angeles' exclusive but quiet Mulholland Estate - was livid when the hotel heiress, famed for her wild partying, bought a home on his street.
A source said: "Paris has a new house right near Robbie's - and he's spitting mad about it. Robbie sped past her the other day in a chauffeur-driven car and completely ignored her.
"He hasn't any time for her and would rather they didn't have any contact." The former Take That star - who celebrates his 34th birthday today (13.02.08) - was dealt a further blow when it was revealed Paris is transforming her basement into a nightclub.

The source added to Britain's The Sun newspaper: "She is in the process of building a disco underneath her mansion so she can keep the parties going long after the clubs shut. If the late-nights start disturbing Robbie he will be absolutely furious."

Robbie moved to the US in 2002 to escape the pressures of fame in the UK. He has previously said he enjoys living in Los Angeles because he is virtually anonymous and can get on with his day-to-day life.
