By News Desk

Unreleased Songs From Coldplay, Kylie Minogue And More!

Thousands of hours of previously unreleased music from the likes of Coldplay, Kylie Minogue, and David Bowie will be made available to the public!

BBC Worldwide and EMI Music have struck a deal to release the unheard music from TV and radio recordings done with the artists. Many other artists related to EMI are also included in the deal.

You can look forward to live radio sessions from Pink Floyd, with songs from their 1967 debut album Piper At The Gates Of Dawn, and a stripped-down version of Coldplay's 2000 hit "Shiver." These unseen recordings are set to be on your favorite artists' DVDs and CDs.

Exciting news, indeed!

Madonna Memoir Released By Her Brother

The Material Girl just never stops!

After news that she will release a sequel to her 1991 IN BED WITH Madonna documentary next year, a major US book publisher has now announced that Madonna's brother, Christopher Ciccone, is also launching a memoir about her.

The tell-all book about the Queen of Pop will be out in book stores mid-July.


PCD And Amy Winehouse?

Now that the Pussycat Dolls have successfully helped Britney get 'hot' again by letting her cameo in their video (which has since been axed from the final cut of the clip), they are looking to sex up Amy Winehouse as well.

Nicole Scherzinger said that the girls would love to hook up with the singer. They don't know what Winehouse thinks about them, but think they can make something sexy that will sell.

A sexy boost to Amy Winehouse at this point would certainly be beneficial. Good luck, Dolls!


Eminem The Joker

Eminem recently played a prank on LL Cool J by calling into the radio station while LL was doing an interview.

We've got the full details here.


Kings of Leon

Fans of Kings of Leon, this is good news for you. The band has finally finished recording their new album, the follow-up to 2007's Because Of The Times.

The Followill brothers apparently said they needed some assistance from booze to create this album. Frontman Caleb said inspiration came from hitting the bottle because they all had girlfriend problems. He also quipped that the pills he's been taking after surgery from a fistfight with his brother, may have helped him create stronger melodies.

The album is due to release in September.
