Kasabian is well known for their swagger and fearless factor but one particular skinny dude has been giving them the shivers.. The boys from Leiceister have labelled their recent appearance on The Late Show With David Letterman as their most terrifying television experience. They found being on the American talk show uncomfortable, claiming everyone had to pander to the host's high maintenance expectations. Sergio Pizzorno said, "We did the Letterman show. It's like no other TV show 'cos everyone's shit scared of him. It's fooking freezing cold 'cos they don't want anyone sweating on camera. You're not allowed to be in the corridor when he's in the corridor. He's like one of those mad fooking sheikhs that you're not allowed to look in the eye." No wonder Tom didn't show his usual stage antics and behaved well during their performance..


It's NOT all about the money? Donald Trump is one smart cookie and he's smart enough to know that women don't frolic after him because of his looks. He recently admitted that trying to look hot and sexy doesn't bother him when he's got a great personality. The Donald believes he has what it takes to get any woman he wants because he knows how to work the most powerful muscle in his body - his brain. He explained to InsideOnline.com, "I've never had the biggest set of muscles, but I've always had the best-looking women. I guess there's only one muscle that counts - your brain." Might be right if it's combined with another small matter of the dollar bill.

Now is the time for Russell Crowe to keep his temper under control. Hopefully he didn't have a phone nearby when he heard this bad news. Crowe is now without a publicist after being "let go" by public relations guru Robin Baum. Considered to be somewhat of a PR liability because of his fiery reputation, he reportedly paid a visit to an emergency room in Sante Fe while filming new movie "3.10 to Yuma," sparking speculation he may have been involved in yet another bust-up. However a friend of the actor said, "He wasn't there - the only medical thing Russell has dealt with is finding a local chiropractor." Maybe he could follow Jack Shepherd's advice of slowing counting from one to five whenever he sensed a rage monster coming through.

Robbie Williams may know how to sing, but he probably didn't too well on his school's spelling bee. Mr Rudebox recently had a hard time trying to figure out how to spell the name of Take That's new single "Patience." After being quizzed about the track at his house, he said, "I haven't heard the new single yet. The only way I can get it is by illegally downloading it. Hang on, let me type it in. How do you spell "Patience?" After finding the music video, he found it too emotional to watch and told the interviewer in a sad tone, "I think I'll take a proper look at this later. It's all a bit too weird for me really." Worried that his old mates will get a higher chart position, perhaps..

Oprah is a cookie? That is, according to 50 Cent. In his eyes, Oprah has been dunking herself in milk and turning into an "oreo" and he insists she has even become one with Michael Jackson, drastically going from black to white over the years. Wahahahaa.. He explained, "I think the idea of being publicly noted that she's a billionaire makes (black women) interested in seeing her views. But it's even more exciting to the demographic of white American women she's been aiming at to see that she has the exact same views that they have." Still bitter about being badly treated when he went to her show last time out, expect more tongue lashing towards O.W from 50 who now might just stop consuming a certain cookie brand.

Muse have backed the burgeoning new rave scene. With groups including Klaxons, CSS, The Sunshine Underground and New Young Pony Club set to head around the country next year on the Indie Rave Tour, the Absolution boys have admitted how much they enjoy the current scene. Matt Bellamy said, "New rave will save me. Klaxons are brilliant - I like the shift they have in their music." Dominic Howard also backed the band's ability to play like a rock band but inspire the rave vibes in their audiences. Wow. All five of those bands are some of the many newcomers that have impressed moi this year. Nice to know it has also received the 'Muscle Museum' guarantee stamp too.

Some concerned Dad whined on a local paper forum regarding some parody T-Shirts that his dear son has been wearing of late. He wants the authorities to find out whether the sale of these 'bad' products depicting sex, drugs, etc are legal in our country. For fook's sake, these parody items has been around for a long, long time and he now wants to eradicate them because the ones promoting the use of weed might encourage the young to try them out?? Might as well tell HMV not to sell any hiphop, gangsta albums anymore then since the lyrics found in them sometimes refer to bad habits and his precious son might just wanna follow suit. Or ban all movies shown in cinemas that contain drug references. That dude clearly isn't living in the real world and probably doesn't have a sense of humour. Can you dig it, sucka?
