Green Day begin work on new album
Thursday, March 18th, 2010
Good news, Green Day fans! Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong has announced that the band has started working on the follow-up to their album “21st Century Breakdown”. Green Day’s last album came out less than a year ago, but if their track record is any indication that doesn’t mean this new album will be out soon - the band took five years between “American Idiot” and “21st Century Breakdown”. However, Armstrong does say he wants this album to be done quicker than the last, so we could be looking at a new Green Day record in 2010.

P. Diddy Looking to Buy British Soccer Team
Thursday, March 18th, 2010
P. Diddy is looking to invest some of his $550 million worth into a British soccer team.
The Sun in London said that he is looking to invest in the club Crystal Palace which is currently facing bankruptcy, but he has been eyeing at others too.
The Sun’s source said that Diddy was in London looking at clubs a couple weeks ago and that he has the funds in place and just needs to settle on one.
“Portsmouth – who are also in severe debt - were mentioned but he thought Palace were a better idea,” The Sun’s source said. “He could cover their debt and bankroll a return to the Premier League. He liked the name as well.”
A representative for P. Diddy has confirmed that he has been looking.

Lady Gaga’s Sis A Future Pop Star
Thursday, March 18th, 2010
If you thought that brunette prisoner in the background of Lady Gaga’s “Telephone” video looked familiar, it’s because she is… kind of. Lady Gaga’s doppelganger is actually her sister and according to The Sun in London, she is also looking for a pop career.
Lady Gaga is apparently on board with the idea and is trying to help out her sister, 17-year-old Natali Germonotta, become a pop star like her. Gaga has already put her in contact with a New York voice coach so she can have her on tour as a back-up singer.
“She’s spending a lot of time with her and sitting in on recordings. She’s got the bug,” said The Sun’s source. “She has also taken to a playlist of GaGa’s favourite tunes and is tapping into her influences to fit in with her vocal style.”
Although Natali is still in school, there is talk she will join Gaga for several dates on the North American leg of her tour in July and August during her summer break.

A warrant has been issued against Lil Wayne after he failed to appear at a hearing in Arizona. In case you didn’t know, boys in jail.
A Superior Court judge from Yuma County issued the warrant for a final trial management conference. Lil Wayne was arrested in January 2008 at a border checkpoint after authorities say they found cocaine, Ecstasy and a handgun on his tour bus.
His is currently serving one-year at the Rikers Island jail for having a loaded gun on his tour bus. After his sentencing was postponed several times, Lil Wayne finally was sent to the clink on March 8.
The prosecutor in the Arizona case said that it is the state’s position that a bench warrant should be issued and his bond increased to $150,000. His charges in this case are one count each of possession of a narcotic for sale, possession of dangerous drugs, misconduct involving weapons and possession of drug paraphernalia, all of which he plead not guilty to.
