By News Desk

Michael Jackson Sued Again

It seems like dejavu, because Michael Jackson is in legal trouble once again.

The King of Pop faces a lawsuit from the son of the King of Bahrain, Sheikh Abdulla Bin Hamad Bin Isa Al-Khalifa, for failing to deliver work after being paid. MJ supposedly received £.7 million and a recording studio, as an advance for 2 albums, a stage show, and an autobiography.

Michael was also reportedly given a Rolls Royce, but the singer claims the payments were just gifts.


Robbie Williams Guests On Take That Special

For Take That fans out there, a reunion with Robbie Williams may really be in the works.

34-year old Robbie will reportedly be making a surprise guest appearance when Take That records their An Audience With... Christmas special in front of a live studio audience. Gary Barlow also asked Williams to join their summer tour. Robbie Williams left the band back in 1995.

He is currently recording his solo album.

Beyonce Goes To Rehab?

Beyonce goes to rehab! But don't worry, it was not for an addiction, but as research for her new movie role.

The singer wanted to understand more about substance abusers as she had never tried any in her life. She plays legendary soul singer Etta James in the upcoming movie Cadilac Records for which she not only has to be a drug addict but also gained 20 pounds for.

Beyonce says she doesn't mind stepping out of her pop-star image for the role.


Timbaland Works On Movie

After working with almost every big artiste in the industry, super-producer Timbaland is making his first foray into film.

Timbaland will executive produce a flick called Vinyl which tells the story of five women who are with blokes in a rock band. His media company will finance the film while his wife will produce the movie.

I guess the missus should have first-hand knowledge of having a hubby in the music biz.
