BEATLES LET IT BE DVD 'CANCELLED'

http://www.beatlesclubmanchester.com/NEWS%20PAUL%20BRITS.jpg

BEATLES legends SIR PAUL McCARTNEY and RINGO STARR have reportedly blocked the re-release of the notorious LET IT BE film. The documentary, originally intended to show the Fab Four at work in the studio, instead illustrated the extreme tensions between the musicians as the band was on the verge of breaking up. It famously included scenes of McCartney and George Harrison bickering over the latter's guitar-playing, and footage of an apparently disinterested John Lennon with his wife Yoko Ono. Although the film was shown in cinemas in the early 1970s, and released on VHS in the 1980s, it has been out of circulation for more than 20 years.

And now the two surviving Beatles have allegedly blocked plans for a DVD release. A source tells U.K. newspaper the Daily Express, "There has been talk of Let It Be finally being released but now there has been a change of heart. "The Beatles are still a massive global brand and it's felt it won't be helped if the public sees the darker side of the story. Neither Paul nor Ringo would feel comfortable publicising a film showing The Beatles getting on each other's nerves."

MILEY CYRUS OFFERED $1MILLION TO ENDORSE CONDOMS!

http://z.about.com/d/shoes/1/7/8/k/Miley_Cyrus.jpg

Miley Cyrus, 15, has been offered $1 million to sign up as the new face of LifeStyles Condoms. The 'Hannah Montana' star - who has previously expressed her desire to wait until she is married before having sex - is considered the most "influential" teenager in modern society, according to LifeStyles Condoms Vice President Carol Carrozza. She said: "Pop culture proves that teens are more ready than ever to discuss the subject of sex.

With recent reports showing that one out of four teenage girls has a sexually transmitted disease and the high level of teenage pregnancy, we believe that Miley is both influential and relatable to this afflicted set - and is the obvious choice to get the message of safe sex out to teens across America." Miley recently hinted she is set to bid goodbye to 'Hannah Montana', the hit Disney TV show which made her famous, after three seasons. She said: "We're thinking this is our last season. I just think we did a lot of episodes. We basically did two seasons in one last year. Usually people would do one season that would be like, 16 episodes, and we did almost 30 episodes!"

I reserve my comments on this one.....Teens may now see Miley as "having sex" anyway. It could send another kinda message...Don't you think? C'MON, THE GIRL IS ALREADY A BILLIONAIRE. I WILL DO IT FOR ONLY $10 MILLION MILEY!

BEASTIE BOYS' YAUCH DEFENDS ATTACK ON NESTLE IN NEW FILM .

http://content.clearchannel.com/Photos/musicians/beastie_boys/adam_yauch_GI.jpg

BEASTIE BOYS star ADAM YAUCH has a bitter taste in his mouth - after bosses at food and drink manufacturer NESTLE hit back at his movie which criticised the company's bottled water products.Yauch screened his documentary film Flow at last weekend's (begs21Jun08) U.S.Nantucket Film Festival, claiming the Swiss-based firm is being environmentally irresponsible. The film, distributed by Yauch and his company Oscilloscope Pictures, blames the growing privatisation of the world's fresh water supply partly on the company, and others including Pepsi and Coca-Cola.


A source tells the New York Post that Nestle bosses were furious at Yauch after hearing the company's name mentioned, revealing, "She (a company representative) stormed out about an hour in when the film named Nestle. The company obviously had no idea this content was in the movie. She told an audience member, 'That was one-sided,' on her way out and didn't come back for the question and answer session afterwards." Yauch has refused to apologise for his honestly in the footage. He tells the New York Post, "They (Nestle) put pretty pictures of springs and forests on the bottles, but in this movie they're getting called out. I think it's great. They lock down water as a commodity they can buy and sell. It's terrifying." Yauch's film is set to debut in New York this September (08).

Rapper/actress QUEEN LATIFAH has become the latest celebrity to launch her own perfume. The star is set to release her fragrance next year (09).

SUMMER'S HERE GIRL: J-Hud will be designing scarves....and knitting them too!

Jennifer Hudson has revealed she spends her spare time "making clothes and knitting scarves". The 'Sex and the City: The Movie' star - who stars as Sarah Jessica Parker's character Carrie Bradshaw's assistant Louise in the big screen adaptation of the hit US TV show - shares her character's love of fashion and adds to her collection whenever she has the chance. She said: "I make clothes and knit scarves. But I really love purses! "I'm a purse girl, not a shoe girl. I remember, I had a scene where you didn't see my feet. So I took my shoes off. But the director, Michael Patrick King, was like, 'Put those heels back on. You're not fully in character unless you're in heels.' He was serious. I had to put my heels back on. It's hard. The heels are mandatory!"

Jennifer also revealed she wasn't nervous about starring in the highly-anticipated movie, because she knew the actresses would accept her. She added to USA Today magazine: "It's a family that already lived together, and they added me. They're fierce, and I get to be fierce and fabulous with them." 'Sex and the City: The Movie' is released worldwide this week.

Girl, when are those scarves going on sale? It's always cold up here. Yesterday Toronto was like 90 degrees, today 40 degrees is the high. Tommorow 85 degrees. Weekend 38 degrees with rain! Fluctuating so much we can use those scarves here J-Hud. Can't trust Toronto weather. Now that's just T-Dot......It's snowing in Calgary as we speak! Meanwhile she hit the Sex and the City premiere last night!

DEFINITELY FICTION: Kelly wants to be an AUTHOR!!

Former DESTINY's CHILD star KELLY ROWLAND wants to follow in the footsteps of her pop peers MADONNA and GERI HALLIWELL - by releasing her own range of children's literature. I guess we won't hear anything about Beyonce's kid in there!

The former Destiny's Child star, 27, has already carved out a successful music career and has ventured into Hollywood (where?) - but she's got her sights set on hitting book store shelves with her very own kids' tales. Tales alright! And she's determined to establish herself as a serious author and actress within the next three years - before she turns 30. Good luck Ms Kelly!

Money x6: Meanwhile, Amy Winehouse and hubby get $2 million book deal about their MARRIAGE!

Moneyx6 means that song... Money Money Money Money Money......MONEY!

Troubled British singer Amy Winehouse and her jailed husband Blake Fielder-Civil have been offered one million pounds for a book about their marriage.

According to thesun.co.uk, the 24-year-old singer is negotiating with Penguin, while Blake has already agreed to the deal. Blake is in London's Pentonville jail for alleged assault and perversion of justice. A friend said: 'They are prepared for it to be warts and all.' Maybe she could fix these knees with that money!

Money x6: "Idol" Judge Randy Jackson selling his own line of eyewear.

AMERICAN IDOL judge RANDY JACKSON can add a new hit to his long list of successes - his own line of eyewear for large-headed men is flying off store shelves. Jackson, known for his trademark frames on the show, was inspired to develop the line after struggling to find a good pair of spectacles that fit. And now his line is so popular retailers are inundated with demand. One retail spokesperson tells OK! magazine, "The line launched two months ago, and they've been totally overwhelmed with requests.

"It's hard for men with large heads to get eyeglasses to fit right, so the Randy Jackson line really filled a void. "They are so in demand that the only prescription frames harder to get right now are Chanel."

Oprah Syndrome: Madonna, my fav R&B artist of all time till she changed genre wants to build all girl school in Malawi.

American pop singer Madonna has revealed that she plans on building an all girls school in Malawi. Madge is following in the footsteps of talk show host Oprah Winfrey, who also founded an all-girls school in Africa. The 'Material Girl' is in the process of applying to build the educational establishment in Malawi, where she adopted her son David in 2006. "I'm buying land and getting permission to build a girl's school. The women will play a big role in the future and rebirth of Malawi," Contactmusic quoted her as telling American magazine Elle.

Oprah Winfrey had co-founded the all-girls Henley-On-Klip Leadership Academy in South Africa in 2006.

Actress and TV personality Ricki Lake is helping to build a school founded by her Malawian nanny. Ya go girl!
