Joss Stone's ex-boyfriend has claimed that her music career comes at a price - she regularly suffers from loneliness. First serious boyfriend Beau Dozier revealed that Joss is desperate to secure long-term success but struggles with the sacrifices she has made over the years. "She doesn't have a life. Her whole life is her music," Beau said. He added: "She is so driven. She never thinks her music is good enough. She didn't feel her first two albums were good, even though they were amazing. I don't think she'll ever be satisfied." From the way she behaved at the Brits, maybe there are hints of crazy RW antics coming from Jossy in the years to come?






Kate Middleton has been voted the most natural beauty in Britain. Prince William's girlfriend topped the nationwide poll conducted by Fox's biscuits seeing off stiff competition from Welsh singer Charlotte Church and German model Claudia Schiffer. Spokeswoman Francesca Davies said: "Kate Middleton is a true natural beauty, whether in designer or high street wear. These findings dispel the myth that all men are attracted to plastically enhanced women, which is a great relief for all the 'natural' women." Charlotte - came second while Keira, Scarlett and Kate Moss also made the top 10. Prince Harry's girlfriend Chelsy Davy was not placed in the list of natural beauties at all. Strange.



Top 8 Natural Beauties (in Britain)
1. Kate Middleton
2. Charlotte Church
3. Claudia Schiffer
4. Kate Moss
5. Catherine Zeta Jones
6. Keira Knightley
7. Gwyneth Paltrow
8. Scarlett Johansson



Prince Harry will let you know he is not boring and party hard just like everybody else his age. The young royal recently declared himself the "Prince of Punk" at a nightclub. Being a big fan of punk music he instructed his aides to invite his favorite band, Towers of London, to exclusive London nightspot Mahiki last week so he could meet them. Towers guitarist Paul said, "We were just told to be there. Then we were introduced to Harry and he told me how much he likes us. He thinks we're top. He spent the evening calling himself the Prince of Punk." Their wonderful night ended abruptly when a fight broke out and Harry was whisked away by bodyguards. Paul added, "Some guy went to hit Tommy, one of the band, and punched my girlfriend. Harry was told to get out of there quick." Punk blood in royalty terms is quite different, it seems.

Those cool dark-suited boys are back for more evil tunes! Interpol have completed their much anticipated third album Dan Kessler has revealed. They have been working in their home city for the past few months and are in the UK at the moment to mix it. Kessler told 6Music: "I wrote a lot of songs on my own, and then when we got together in January. We just kinda started going through songs, building them up. There was a really good energy to it." He added: "With this record, I think, anything goes. We're a lot more open. It sounds like Interpol. It sounds like our tunes, but there's a lot more atmosphere and sound in general, rather than just filling it up with guitars all the time." The album is expected to be released in June. Wooooooooooooooooooooooooo!


Luke don't love him the way that.. the bully loves him? The Kooks frontman Luke Pritchard exacted his revenge on a school bully by telling a nightclub doorman he had class A drugs on him. He was shocked when the former playground tyrant recently turned up at one of his gigs and pretended to be his friend, but he used the opportunity to get his own back on the person who made his school life a misery. Luke said, "I was deeply unpopular at school. I had the s**t kicked out of me almost every day. One time when the tour bus pulled up in Leeds, some fella who used to beat me up was outside saying, 'Hey, remember the good old days mate?' I put his name on the list and told the bouncers he had ten grams of coke on him, the f**king a**ehole." Oh ain't that just sweet, and how 'naive' is that idiot to take his chance?


New Songs:
1) The Violets - Mirror Mirror [mp3]
2) Bloc Party - We Were Lovers [mp3]
3) The Manhattan Love Suicides - Suzy Jones [mp3]

In similar veins as Roger Sisters/Long Blondes/Love Is All, new band The Violets has the energy & spunk that is destined for greater success. Released on the Jap Version, "We Were Lovers" is a very ear-catching track sounding better than most of the new ones. Melodic pop vocals mixed with relaxed fuzzy guitars result in a winning formula for "Suzy Jones" from newcomers M.L.S.

Kate Moss could be questioned by police investigating an alleged rape at a London private members' club. She was drinking with friends and Pete at The Groucho Club just before a 25-year-old woman is alleged to have been attacked in an upstairs corridor. Moss was escorted from the club by her minders and driven back to her home after the incident in the early hours of Friday morning. There is no suggestion that Moss or any of her friends were involved in the alleged attack. She's always caught up with something weird.


Nicole Richie was charged on Friday with a misdemeanor for driving under the influence by the L.A district attorney. Because of a prior DUI conviction in June 2003, she faces mandatory jail time of 90 days up to one year if convicted of a second DUI. "This is a difficult time for Nicole but she is prepared to accept whatever responsibility is appropriate," her attorney Howard Weitzman said at the time. She will be arranged in L.A County Superior Court in Glendale, California on Feb 21st. On the upside, Nic may gain some weight being in there.

Hugh Grant is now single after splitting with girlfriend of three years, Jemima Khan. They were last spotted together at the London and Los Angeles premieres of his new film, Music And Lyrics. His publicist, Robert Garlock, confirms the break-up saying, "Hugh and Jemima have decided to split amicably." During his appearance on "The View" Friday, co-host Barbara Walters noted that he'd been "domesticated" by Khan at which Grant replied, "I agree with you, I think she's a cracker." When co-host Joy Behar asked what the term meant, he explained, "She's a cracker, but that's something different here in America!" Will be hard for Grant to find someone who adores him as much as he adores himself. Good thing is that he can now go to Liz Hurley's wedding without a Khan blocking the way.



Does Evie share her clothes? Dominic Monaghan has admitted that he likes to dress in women's clothing. The actor explained that he is happy to describe himself as a "metrosexual" and thinks he "should probably be gay". "I wear make-up and I paint my nails. I wear high heels. This is all true. I like wearing skirts," Dom explained. "I should probably be gay but I like women too much. I am kind of metrosexual in the sense that, if I do get lost, I do ask for directions. I pull over to gas stations and ask. So I don't know. I guess guys have a lot of pride." Thin-skinned personality breeds from this lostie.
