She's Madonna

Atomic Kitten returns! They are reforming for a one-off gig in support of jailed football fan Michael Shields. The band will perform at Liverpool's Empire Theatre in December. Jenny, Liz and Natasha will take time out from their solo careers to star in the show. The event, will also include performances from Gloria Gaynor, comedian Ricky Tomlinson and the Bay City Rollers. Liverpool FC fan Shields was jailed in Bulgaria for a crime he claims he did not commit. He is serving 10 years for the attempted murder of a barman during a brawl in the Black Sea resort of Golden Sands last May. He is expected to return to the UK shortly to serve the rest of his sentence. The proceeds from the concert will go towards paying off a fine of almost 90,000 pounds which was also imposed by the Bulgarian court. Sad case for that kid.

Kirsten Dunst has revealed that she's not keen on making films back to back like some actors because she needs time in the real world in order to inspire her next performance. Kirsten, who is planning on taking a study break from Hollywood, said recently: "If you go from one movie to the next, then where is there to draw from - your last experience on a set? You need to be at home with your friends and cultivate a life so that when you go to work, you feel like a solid person. I need to find other things in my life that I love besides acting. Like painting, for instance." Painting her private real love story?

Abba_RWAn unlikely revival coming true? It seems like Robbie Williams knows how to play his cards right. He hopes to strike gold and record a number of songs with ABBA. Currently in talks with former ABBA star Anni-Frid Lyngstad about the possibility of releasing several songs with the Swedish quartet, who split in 1983. Among other hits, Robbie reportedly wants to re-record "Dancing Queen." Anni-Frid is thrilled at the prospect of working with him. She said, "Robbie and I talked about doing an ABBA hit together. He has not yet come back on that one." ABBA have refused many offers to reunite since splitting. However, many hope Robbie can bring the four back together for the first time. A source told the Daily Star, "Maybe Robbie could be the one to get them together again. It would be a sensational coup." Would be great for everyone who appreciates music. Best if Ms Minogue could chip in as well.

It's all about us? Tatu will shoot a movie just after the New Year. "The script has been already written and now some questions on shooting are being considered," admitted Yulia. "The director will be from America and his name will be kept secret." The movie will tell us the story of Tatu's and a love story between two girls. "It will be about two girls that meet at one of our gigs and have a romantic story. It is also about their emotions, about their feelings," Yulia said during their promotional visit to Paris this week. The script is based on a novel "Tatu come back" by Alexey Mitrofanov. Maybe this might inspire G.A to create their own version.

It is tough being a musician when your name is Jack White. His loyalty is split 50/50 between The Raconteurs and The White Stripes. Jack has been writing for The White Stripes in-between his touring commitments with The Raconteurs, with new material likely to surface soon. He tells Uncut: "I have to honestly say that I'm divided totally 50/50 between The Raconteurs and The White Stripes. My brain now has two options for songs that I write, and it's a really nice luxury to have as a songwriter. "I have so many songs now for another White Stripes record: Meg and I are working on songs during breaks from touring with The Raconteurs." What a nice headache to have..

Kasabian have announced details of the third single. The Leicester lads will release 'Me Plus One' on January 29. Good choice. Maybe the one after that must be Doberman.

"The Return" review
Sarah Michelle Gellar plays Joanna Mills, a tough young Midwesterner determined to learn the truth behind the increasingly terrifying supernatural visions that have been haunting her. Joanna has made a successful career for herself, as sales representative for a trucking company. But her private life has been difficult; estranged from her father (Sam Shepard), stalked by an obsessed ex-boyfriend (Adam Scott), and with few friends, Joanna fears that she is losing control. She sees and feels the brutal murder of a young woman she's never met, at the hands of a heartless killer - a man who appears to be making Joanna his next target. Determined to fight back, Joanna is guided by her nightmares to the murdered woman's hometown. Once there, she will discover that some secrets can't be buried; some spirits never die; and that the murder she is trying to solve may be her own. [The-Return-Article]

Matthew Perry has a new girlfriend - thirteen years his junior! He is dating 'Mean Girls' star Lizzy Caplan, who is just 24. However, Matt has been warned the allegedly hard partying actress could be too much for him. A source told Us Weekly: "Lizzy is a party girl. I'm surprised that Matt, who has struggled with sobriety, would be dating her." Matthew met Lizzy through Matt LeBlanc. Meanwhile, Perry's new US TV show 'Studio 60' has not been well received..



Music Covers:
>> Scarlett Johansson - Summertime [mp3]
>> Ashlee Simpson - Sweet Dreams (live) [mp3]
>> Emma Bunton - Downtown [mp3]

Fancy some old hits re-done by the current generation? Scarlett tried to experiment with an old jazz track from the 30s and she showed promise in singing ability. Ashlee goes retro in her recent performance by doing Eurythmics. Not too sure whether Ms Lennox will be impressed with the 'la la' spice added. Meanwhile, Emma kept her 60s vibe going from the last album with a new track previously done by Petula Clark. Didn't really nailed in perfectly but quite impressive nonetheless.
