When an artist records a song titled “Free Me” and it’s directed towards her record label, it may be time to part ways.
Joss Stone is the latest in a long line of artists who is trying to get away from the EMI label. Rolling Stones, Radiohead and Supergrass have all exited since the company was purchased by an investment firm in 2007. The moral: Bankers become bankers because they aren’t artistic. Bankers shouldn’t be in the music business. Duh.
Stone has offered to give up almost four million bucks in payments owed to her, in return for being released from her contract. EMI has taken legal action against Joss for not delivering her latest album “Colour Me Free” by a December 31st, 2008 deadline.
All of this tumult really raises more critical questions: Has anyone been missing Joss Stone’s music while all this debate is happening? Also, do you think Joss Stone forgot her pants?

While Kate Gosselin was at a North Carolina resort with her nanny and eight kids, the brother of the chick Jon (allegedly!) slept with, figured out a new way to make some cash.
Jason Hummel, the guy who was all too willing to tell the media the tale of how he overheard his sister having sex with Jon Gosselin, wants to sell the bed, also known as “scene of the crime,” on Ebay. After the media frenzy, Jason’s sister Deanna moved out, leaving her queen-sized bed behind. He’s curious to see “how much some crazy fan will pay,” which really means he’s “curious to see how much he can sell out his sister for.”
The economy is tough right now and I’m starting to think we are getting –getting? – saturated on the Gosselins. I’ll wager that bed won’t fetch more than $15,000.

Last night Sacha Baron Cohen’s alter ego, Bruno, introduced his balls to Eminem’s face at the MTV Movie Awards.
Em, who didn’t seem too thrilled about the meet and greet, made a hasty, dramatic and expletive-filled exit (after his bodyguards had an opportunity to bat Bruno around a bit).Seriously? So staged!
