Sick Sir Elton's Hospitalised and Postpones Tourdates
Sir Elton John has had to cancel three tourdates in the US as he fights what his official website describes as a serious case of E.coli bacterial infection and influenza.
He is said to be in a London hospital being treated for the infection and flu, and yesterday his spokesman said:
"He has flu and is absolutely fine."
Elton's currently touring with Billy Joel, who had flu-like symptoms back in July and forced the pair to cancel several performances in the summer, while Elton has also missed a string of UK shows.
Lily Allen "Who'd Have Known" — Spin It or Sling It?
Although she has "no plans to make another record", Lily Allen is still committed to her current music, and in addition to her upcoming tour she has just released the video for new single "Who'd Have Known". In the video Lily plays an Elton John fan, who takes matters into her own hands and kidnaps (a lookalike of) the singer. Lily and Elton had a war of words at last year's GQ Men of the Year Awards, so I wonder how he'll react to the video.

Geri Halliwell was once again making headlines with her choice of dress, having worn an outfit from 2002 to the Breast Cancer Fashion Show on Wednesday.
Are You More Likely to See a Broadway Show If a Famous Musician Is Behind It?
Regina Spektor is headed to the Great White Way! It was announced yesterday that the famous songstress will be creating the score for a new Broadway musical inspired by Sleeping Beauty.
As a Spektor fan, this news makes perfect sense to me.
