Roskilde Festival

Thunder and lightning filled the skies yet the true electricity came from the stage as Sir Paul McCartney gave his first ever concert in Kiev on Saturday.

A record 350,000 braved the inclement weather to see the musician. The charity concert, in the former Soviet republic's Independence Square, was the Ukraine's biggest ever.

Amy Winehouse has been taken to hospital after fainting in London yesterday (June 16).

The singer is undergoing tests after passing out at her home, although she is said to have "quickly recovered".

According to a spokesperson, it's unclear what caused her to faint and she may be kept in overnight for observation.

Nick Cave: reloaded. Promo video for the new Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds album "DIG, LAZARUS, DIG!!!"

Tom Felton (anti-hero from Harry Potter) tries himself in playing guitar and singing. His band is called Feltbeats.

The very idea of Scarlett Johansson's debut album has been met with a strange collective kneejerk dismissal, not so much because she's an actor making a foray into music, but she's a good actor making a foray into music.
Let's see a video from her first (and maybe not last?) album "Anywhere I Lay My Head".

This is a second video from "Hard Candy" album. It`s called "Give It 2 Me" and directed by Tom Munro and featuring Pharrell.

Rocker also admits to being 'standoffish,' but says she 'had no problem fitting in.'

There have been quite a few so-called "rocker chicks" on "American Idol" in the past (Gina Glocksen and Nikki McKibbin, to name a couple), but none embodied the essence of rock and roll quite like recent castoff Amanda Overmyer.

Britney Spears saves the day - at least in her new music video "Break the Ice." In the animated video, she's portrayed as a futuristic action hero who fights off cyborgs. Just when it seems like she's cornered, Britney sets off a bomb and dives off a building. It's a cliffhanger that leaves the door open for more animated videos by the troubled pop-star.

This song was originally written and preformed by the Monkees in the 60's....but Smash Mouth re-made it for Shrek.

Then I saw her face
Now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
I'm in love
I'm a believer
I couldn't leave her if I tried

Britney Spears has secretly married her British paparazzo boyfriend Adnan Ghalib in Mexico, according to American reports. The troubled star wed during a trip to Mexico on 9 January, Star magazine claims, but the marriage is illegal because Ghalib is already married.

What is LDN? LDN = London?
