Kate Moss reveals all...she has spoken out for the first time about her tumultuous on/off love affair with Pete - and admits the memories make her "sick". The catwalk beauty, who split with Doherty after he failed to complete rehabilitation treatment for his crack addiction at the end of last month, is furious at the way she was manipulated in their relationship. Moss even paid for his treatment and has blasted his ungratefulness. She told Scoop mag: "He's a user in every sense of the word. He makes me sick.
"Yes, I loved him, but I was taken in by his little-boy-lost routine. He has nearly cost me everything." How about that studio pic taken with the QPR jersey? Poor dude. After getting lashed by Liam, Lisa Moorish and almost a lot of other high profile individuals, Kate-y drilled the worst response yet.

This alien thingy has gone out of order. Some German lady fan of the Robb-ster has been served with a restraining order after warning the singer he is in danger of being abducted by aliens. The woman, by the name of Conny C during a court hearing in the German city Dusseldorf, will have to pay a fine of $302,000 if she goes within 500 metres of Robbie. She is very convinced that tragedy will befall him when he makes appearances on German television this weekend. She said: "I am worried. I believe he is in grave danger." The lawyer for Robbie W described her condition as "disturbed". Did some angels told her of that weird predicament? Would be interesting to hear what Robb thinks of this..maybe she's just come undone.

Even though Jessy Simpson has been flying solo recently, she has yet to file separation papers from Nick Lachey. Simpson may be rethinking the high-stakes separation. A source revealed: "I don't think she has the stomach for a divorce. She made $850,000 at a concert this week, and you'd think since Nick would be entitled to half, she would have moved to protect her finances."
There is no anger among both parties, who are currently e-mailing each other. That is quite interesting as I'm sure Simpson had seen some recent pics of him with some beautiful lady. Of course in order to protect her assets(probably Joe's idea), she might think twice about going about this decision. She has made an estimated $35 million this year, some of which came from her cosmetics and clothing line empire. But that's not all. Simpson recently told in some mag: "I have a workout video coming out, and I have a show line that's adorable." *insert The Apprentice tune*. Famed divorce attorney Raoul Fleder said the split could be a goldmine for Lachey. "We say California is a 50/50 state," Felder said. "My guess is she's crying her eyes out that there is no pre-nup." Will there be a twist in this tale of "Newlyweds"?

Catherine Zeta Jones has made a New Year's resolution to give up smoking - because she's scared of the impact her habit will have on her kids. The Welsh beauty is concerned because her two children Dylan, five, and two-year-old Carys are approaching an impressionable age. She said: "I have to stop as my kids are at an age when they are going to start asking questions." Yup. Give it up and then just take it away. A girl's got to zip it up..

Arctic Monkeys have announced their debut album will be called "Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not". The boys from Sheffield will release the record on Jan 30th. Amongst the tracks expected to feature are "A Certain Romance", "Fake Tales Of San Francisco", next single "When The Sun Goes Down", plus that dancefloor song of course. Lead singer Alex Turner is not concerned about the success of future singles and that is a good thing. The main purpose of making proper music is not to aim high in the charts unlike some crap stuff we have nowadays.. The second single, "When The Sun Goes Down", will be released on January 16.

I don't believe this at all. There were recent shout outs about The Strokes and Franz Ferdinand planning to form a supergroup after they watched each other's performance in London. Art Rock combination with garage raw rock might work but goodness me please don't let this be true. The bands' mutual respect formed over two nights last week when each band performed a gig in London.
Last Tuesday, Kapranos enjoyed a Strokes concert at the University Of London Union while, the following night, the New Yorkers caught Franz Ferdinand's gig at Alexandra Palace. "They are talking about forming some kind of supergroup. Exactly how and when is yet to be decided.
"But they are all keen to collaborate on some recording and a live show." an insider revealed. This is worse than Three Quid doing a coca-cola commercial! I miss the last bus i take the next train i try but you see...just take me out!! Zzzzzzzz....

Charlotte Church would rather quit singing forever than lose boyfriend Gavin Henson. She might as well dedicate 'lost without you'(Delta Goodrem) as her token of love. The Welsh star says she's so besotted with the rugby ace she couldn't imagine being without him. She revealed: "If I had to choose between him and singing, I'd definitely choose him over my career any day of the week."
The singer knows she's found her Mr Right in Gavin - as she feels differently to how she felt when she was dating ex-lovers Steven Johnson and Kyle Johnson. Those two dished out dirt to the tabloids regarding their relts with her. Charlotte said: "It's so different to when I went out with piece of shit No 1 and piece of shit No 2. With them I always knew it wasn't going to last - it was good for the moment. I thought I loved them, but now I'm with Gavin I just know that I didn't at all. It was just a union. With Gavin, I feel so special."
She added: "Gavin always makes me cups of tea and brings me back fags when he's been abroad, which is great. He texts me the sweetest messages out of the blue. He's just perfect." Those women at the parties who tried getting close to Gav better beware of this chick. She might 'ave them done when the moodswings are activated..





Not one who is into the art scene, I came to like this artwork done by Liza Lacroix. Check out her other creations of Pete, Valensi amongst others.






The funny dude Neil Humpreys interviewed Noel G and shared his thoughts about the Crazy Horse debate. He has wrongly dismissed SOTSOG as a 'weak' album.

Alex Turner has launched a scathing attack against Pete Doherty saying he hasn't achieved anything musically. It's not the first time Turner has spoken out about Doherty. He labelled The Libertines and Babyshambles as 'pretentious' and now it seems these feelings still run strong. Turner told a Jap mag: "Musically, he hasn't really achieved anything. Libertines gigs were full of private school kids, their music was pretentious, really." The vocalist continued: "Come to our gigs and it's normal working people having a great time. That's what music's about." Is he trying to jump onto the pro-oasis bandwagon and put down the handbook? First it was pretentious Kaiser Chiefs..now it's 'achieved nothing' Lib+Shambles?? That ain't clever and wise if you know how to choose between cool and glory..

Graham Coxon has revealed that his new solo album will be entitled 'Love Travels At Illegal Speeds' and will be released on March 13. The album will be preceded by the single 'Standing On My Own Again' on Feb 27, it is Coxon's first new material since 2004's 'Happiness in Magazines'.

Lady Sovereign - Hoodie(Basement Jaxx Remix) [ Credit from Razorbladerunner (what a cool nick) ]
This is a great remix track where it sounds much better than the original version. Basement Jaxx has always been one to add the much needed 'ooomph' and this is another example of their genius work. Check out the basslines. It can't get more groovier than this.
