The name is Goldfrapp. Alison Goldfrapp. And it
looks like the UK faves might be the next artists to have
a James Bond theme song, as the group is in talks with
Bond musical director David Arnold to pen the title track
for Casino Royale. Ooh la la!

Metallica are heading off to never-never land, lending
their voices to a pair of upcoming animated projects. They'll
make their first-ever guest appearance on The Simpsons
for the show's season premiere Sept. 10, with all four
band members lending their voices to the episode. Plus,
James Hetfield and Kirk Hammett are providing voices for
the upcoming Cartoon Network series Death Clock Metalocalypse
about a fictional heavy metal band, debuting on Cartoon
Network's Adult Swim next month.
If you're heading down to San Diego next month for the
always awesome Street Scene Festival, just added to the
bill is Aussie buzz band Wolfmother who will rock out on
Friday, Aug. 4, while The Shins will play the following
day.
Pink just started filming a new horror flick called Catacombs,
which she describes as “sort of a slasher-type, scary
movie that's psychological and shows how mean and cruel
siblings can be to each other.” Meanwhile, she joked
about being "trisexual"—because she fancies
everybody. The star, recently married to hunky motocross
racer Carey Hart, confessed: "Most of my friends are
lesbians. When I first started out, people couldn't figure
out whether I was gay, straight, black, white, or whatever,
and I loved that. I had a girlfriend when I was 13 and
she left me for my brother! That kind of fucked me up." You
go, grrrl!
RIP to dyke-centric indie faves Sleater-Kinney, who are
putting their instruments away, perhaps for good. The group
issued a statement announcing their “indefinite hiatus.”
Rumors are swirling about Christina Aguilera and her supposed
heavy diva behavior lately. Apparently, during promo interviews
she refuses to even look at the journalist, and insists
that the Q&As—for which she's usually two to
four hours late—take place in a dimly lit room, where
she sits and stares away completely from the journalist
while they ask, and she answers. Odd, indeed.
Good luck to rapper Lil' Kim, who was greeted with cheers
as she walked free from her 10-month jail stay last week.
Kim was visibly moved by fans' screams of support, and
she showed her gratitude by blowing kisses to them. What's
her first goal on the outside? Fixing her reported-to-be
leaking fake boobs, which close sources claim “need
service.” Who do you call for something like that?
Jiffy Boob?
And finally, speaking of boobs, enjoy these two air headed
comments from the Simpson sisters: "I love to kiss
with my eyes open, because I can take in the entire situation
and know if I'm enjoying it or not."—Jessica
Simpson. And not to be outdone: "My point is that
whether you have big boobs or small boobs, there are always
pros and cons."—Ashlee Simpson.
