'Led Zeppelin reunion was like a World Cup penalty shoot-out'

Tests continue on singer Winehouse

Amy Winehouse has undergone further tests in hospital as speculation continues that she may have to pull out of two major concerts next week.
The 24-year-old is due to play the Nelson Mandela 90th birthday concert in Hyde Park next Friday and Glastonbury next Saturday.
But she is awaiting the results of tests at a London hospital after she fainted at home earlier this week.
A spokesman said last night: "Amy has undergone more scans and tests today and we are awaiting the verdict of her doctors."
He continued: "At present, she still intends to perform at the two scheduled dates next week."
The spokesman added: "However, a decision will be made entirely upon the advice of her doctors and in her best interests."

Janet's Pocket Boyfriend

Janet Jackson has whittled herself down to ... Jermaine Dupri's height.
Jermaine and Janet
The gorgeous pop icon must have found an out-of-print copy of "Nicole Kidman's Guide to Loving a Pip Squeak," because she left the heels at home in favor of a pair of mini-man friendly sneakers on Thursday.

At least in regards to stature, Janet and Jermi are equals.

Jackie Chan - Chan Not Welcomed By Taiwanese Protestors


Martial arts star JACKIE CHAN was met with an icy reception when he arrived in Taiwan on Wednesday (18Jun08), with protestors chanting for the star to "get out".

The Rush Hour actor flew to the capital Taipei to attend a charity event - but his trip was marred by locals who were still angry at Chan's comments about their country's presidential election four years ago (04).

Chan riled supporters of then-Taiwanese President Chen Shui-bian by describing the election as "the biggest joke in the world".

Chen was voted into office with a narrow victory over rival Annette Lu in 2004, after they were both shot on the eve of the election. They suffered only minor injuries, but Chen's opponents claimed the shooting was staged to help him win the sympathy vote.

And Taiwanese locals are still enraged by Chan's comments four years on.

One woman says, "Jackie Chan insulted Taiwanese people and denied the value of our democracy."

But Chan insists he meant no harm to the locals - citing his family history to prove there were no hard feelings.

At a press conference later on Wednesday, he said, "My affection for Taiwan... is witnessed by everyone. My wife is Taiwanese and I am the son-in-law of Taiwan. I am half Taiwanese."
