Robin Williams impersonator stops after lawsuit LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - A celebrity impersonator sued by actor Robin Williams for being too convincing has agreed to stop posing as the Oscar-winning actor, Williams' attorney said on Monday. Williams had accused his impersonator, Michael Clayton, and Clayton's manager, Michael Pool, of duping a Minnesota Star-Tribune reporter and fund-raisers for a Missouri fire department into believing he was Robin Williams. Williams' attorney Gerald Margolis said on Monday that the case has been tentatively resolved. "Each of them (Pool and Clayton) blamed the misrepresentation on the other one and they have each agreed they would enter into a stipulated injunction not to do it anymore," Margolis said. According to the lawsuit, filed in December, Clayton's manager called the newspaper and fire department to offer "Williams"' services, and went "to great lengths to dupe (them) into falling for their ruse." To convince the Missouri fund-raisers that he was the real thing, the suit said Clayton telephoned them and launched into a rendition of "Mrs. Doubtfire" -- one of Williams' signature film roles in which he impersonates an elderly British nanny. When the mistaken identity came to light, the Star-Tribune retracted its interview with "Williams." The Punkin Center Rural Fire Department also canceled its December fund-raiser, at which organizers hoped to raise $45,000, the suit said. The real Williams sued a short time later, demanding damages and asking a judge to order Clayton to disclose that he is not "the real Robin Williams" when he does impersonations. Neither Pool nor Clayton could be reached for comment. According to his Web site, www.robindouble.com, Clayton performs as Williams in one-man and musical comedy shows that include dancers and a band. Clayton has "won all the major look-alike contests" and has been mistaken "everywhere he goes" for the "Mork and Mindy" actor, the Web site says.

Australia's Kylie Minogue diagnosed with breast cancer By Michael Perry SYDNEY (Reuters) - Pop diva Kylie Minogue, whose hit album "Fever" went platinum in the United States, has been diagnosed with breast cancer and has postponed her Australian and Asian tour, her management said Tuesday. Minogue, 36, is Australia's biggest music star, rising from humble beginnings as an Australian teenage soap-opera actress to international stardom as one of the world's top pop singers and, most recently, as a flamboyant gay icon revered in Britain. The Frontier Touring Co. said the singer often known just as "Kylie" was diagnosed with early breast cancer while visiting family in Melbourne this week. "She will undergo immediate treatment and consequently her Australian tour will not be able to proceed as planned," the company said in a statement. Minogue is the second pop star to be diagnosed with the disease in as many years. American singer Anastacia underwent treatment for breast cancer in 2003 after the illness was detected when she was 29 years old. Minogue's "Showgirl Tour" was to open Thursday in Australia before performances in Asia and a headlining act at Glastonbury, Europe's biggest music festival, at the end of June. She said was sorry to disappoint her fans. "Nevertheless, hopefully all will work out fine and I'll be back with you all again soon," Minogue said in a statement. Her record label Parlaphone, owned by music company EMI, confirmed she had pulled out of Glastonbury, host to most of greatest names in pop and rock since it started in a field in western England in 1970. Minogue, who is signed to EMI, was worth about A$60 million (US$46 million), according to a 2004 list of rich young Australians compiled by BRW magazine. In 2002, one of Minogue's bras sold for $6,880 in London at an auction to raise money for breast cancer awareness. Minogue has also worked to raise awareness of prostate cancer, after her father was diagnosed with it. "It is unusual because breast cancer is predominately a disease of older women," Professor John Toy, the medical director of the charity Cancer Research UK, told Reuters. "To be diagnosed at 36 is unusually bad luck for her." But Toy said the disease was diagnosed early, which speaks well for Minogue's prognosis. Australian concert promoter and long-time friend Michael Gudinski said Minogue was fit and strong. "It was diagnosed this morning," he told reporters. "I'm hoping and praying because the doctor found it so early that everything will be okay. She's got a few tough weeks ahead of her. The one thing I know about Kylie is, she's a fighter." Minogue is understood to be staying with her family at their home in the Melbourne suburb of Canterbury, local media reported. Her sister Dannii, also a successful singer, was expected to return from London, Australian media reported. It was unclear whether Minogue's French boyfriend, actor Olivier Martinez, was with her in Australia. Fans bombarded Kylie Minogue Web sites with messages of support. "I have always admired you for being a strong and successful woman," wrote fan Helen Fornber. "I have no doubt you will get through this." Minogue, who stands 154.9 cm (five ft, one inch) and is usually seen in stilettos, has become a global music icon through an ability to continually re-invent herself -- from the girl next door in the 1980s to today's sexy, but innocent, pop princess. Her acting career took off in 1986 as the teenage character "Charlene" in the Australian soap opera "Neighbors" which led to her singing career. The Kylie phenomenon reached fever pitch in 2001 with the release of her hit "Can't Get You Out of My Head" from the multi-platinum selling album "Fever." Over the years her career has hit rocky patches but each time Minogue, renowned for her hard work and drive, bounced back. She has had a series of high-profile relationships, dating in 1989 the leader of Australian rock band INXS, Michael Hutchence, who was found hanged in a Sydney hotel in 1997. Minogue is revered by some almost as much for her signing as for her bottom since wearing gold hotpants in one raunchy music video. The hotpants have been deemed culturally significant and are now on display in Australia. (Additional reporting by Patricia Reaney in London)

Jason Priestley Weds By Sarah Hall Jason Priestley is a married man. Again. The former Beverly Hills, 90210 star tied the knot with longtime girlfriend Naomi Lowde over the weekend on Paradise Island in the Bahamas. The twosome have been together for several years and got engaged last May. It was the second trip down the aisle for Priestley, whose previous marriage to makeup artist Ashlee Peterson lasted less than a year. Apparently, Priestley is drawn to cosmetics queens--the English-born Lowde is also a makeup artist. Priestley has endured some tough times since the heady days of 90210. In 2002, Lowde helped nurse the former teen idol back to health after he was in a serious head-on car crash during a warmup lap at the Indy Racing Infiniti Pro Series at Kentucky Speedway. The near-fatal crash left Priestley with a concussion, broken back, fractured feet, lacerated nose and bruised eye socket, but he went on to make a full recovery. "He's a medical miracle," Lowde said at the time. "He could have died from any one of his injuries."

Pitt: Reasons for Aniston Split `complex' NEW YORK - Brad Pitt says he's still proud of his relationship with Jennifer Aniston, four months after their separation. In an interview in GQ magazine, on newsstands Friday, Pitt expresses nostalgia and happiness for his 4 1/2 years of marriage with Aniston, who filed for divorce in March. "There's a beauty in our coming together, there's a beauty in our time together, and there's a beauty in this, for us," Pitt says. "I'm actually really proud of us. ... We've done it our way, and I love her for that. We've kept the love we have for each other." On reports that he wanted children, but Aniston didn't, Pitt says: "That was one version," but totally unfounded. As to reports of a romance with his "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" co-star Angelina Jolie, Pitt didn't explicitly deny them, but said he pays it no mind. "Jen and I have felt pretty impervious to it all. We have not seen a thing, so that we can carry on this new incarnation with the love we still have for each other. My attitude was, say what you want, we're not playing." Instead, Pitt describes the reasons for their breakup as "complex and multifaceted" and "not one thing." Now, the 41-year-old actor says, he has growing interest in doing things other than movies: "Truthfully, I'm interested in other things now. Like family." Though Pitt says he's not ready to remarry and start that family yet, he adds: "I'm not worried that it's not gonna happen. I'll make it happen. You go make the thing that you want."

Should we feel sorry for Prince Harry? By CHRISTOPHER WILSON, Daily Mail Pessimistic: Many expect Sandhurst to be a difficult time for the Prince Prince Harry has had one hell of a week. First, there was his headline-making on the town with his minder which ended in a minor traffic accident at 4am and another PR blunder. Then there was his high-profile arrival at Sandhurst after which, once the social niceties and photo-opportunities were over, he was plunged into an awesomely tough military regime that he is clearly ill-prepared for after a gap year that has lasted for almost two. At the same time, he's seen his fragile reputation further tarnished - and his academic shortcomings exposed - as the details of his allegedly forged A-level art submission were aired in public at an employment tribunal involving one of his former teachers. Could it get any worse? Well, probably. The Prince, who will be 21 in September, and his new brothers-in-arms will be subjected to all manner of tests to their physique and courage in the coming months, tempers will be short once the day is done and the spit-and-polishing begins - and no prizes for guessing who will be first in the firing-line. For Harry got into Sandhurst on minimum qualifications - two A-levels - and if, as it is now being claimed, he is not entitled to one of them, he is equally not entitled to his place at Britain's top military academy. This fundamental point won't have escaped the officer cadets of Harry's company - Alamein - many of whom will have struggled to get to Sandhurst and know there will be no shortcuts and no preferment in their personal careers. They will have to struggle for a place in their regiment of choice as they watch the small amount of money they earn as cadets - their only income, in many cases - being swallowed up in the costly apparatus of becoming an officer. The right car and the right clothes cost more than many can really afford. Plus, there will already be a sneaking presentiment as to who of their intake is going to win the coveted Sword of Honour at their passing-out parade. So Officer Cadet Wales - younger, richer, and with a smart cavalry regiment already polishing its mess silver in readiness for his arrival - will, let us presume, not be universally popular. And no doubt in the contact sports and exercises he has already endured and in those to come, he will have encountered the same deliberately heavy 'collisions' and the same sarcastic remarks he endured from some quarters while at school. Fresh look at Harry Perhaps, therefore, it's an appropriate moment to take a fresh look at the young man, fourth in line to the throne, who has been so demonised as nothing more than an upper-class lout over the past two or three years. Why does he behave the way he does? To answer that question, one must go back more than ten years to when Diana, Princess of Wales, was still alive. In seeking to assert her preferences in all corners of her failing marriage, she chose Eton, the school of her father and brother, for Prince William over her husband's alma mater Gordonstoun. And because Prince William went there, so too should Harry. But when the Princess approached William's housemaster, Dr Andrew Gailey, to talk about her youngest son he gently warned that there could be problems ahead. Harry, he said, had learning difficulties which could prove devastating for him in a school where excellence is a byword, and where preferential treatment for bluebloods has long since disappeared. Charles and Diana went ahead anyway and Dr Gailey's fears were fulfilled. Where William proved a success, Harry had difficulty in keeping up from the start. Had Diana lived, she might well have been forced to the tough but ultimately sensible decision - one reached by many parents - to take her younger son out of Eton and place him somewhere where the culture was less competitive. But Diana died and Prince Charles - a loving but not a hands-on parent - had his attention focused elsewhere. Soon Harry was coming bottom or near-bottom in his classes, and was struggling badly. 'He should not have gone to Eton' Is it any surprise, then, that sympathetic tutors, seeing his dilemma and foreseeing the humiliation of his A-level results (or lack of them) being publicly aired at the end of his school career, may have given the Prince a helping hand? The evidence presented at the tribunal hearing this week of former art mistress Sarah Forsyth - she is claiming unfair dismissal and sexual discrimination following her sacking two years ago - points, not to a conniving Harry eager to cheat his way to A-level success, but to a young boy desperately out of his depth and grateful for any help he could get. "He should not have gone to Eton, it's as simple as that," said one former courtier I spoke to this week. "From a security point of view it was convenient since his brother was already there. "And then there's the prestige, too. But the Prince of Wales should have been prepared to review the situation, and not just assume that because William sailed through so, too, would Harry." Perhaps Charles's distance from the boys was a factor in his failure to take Harry's plight more seriously. Indeed, I was told in 1997 by one of Charles's entourage that in the 365 days leading up to Diana's death the Prince had custody of his two boys for just 22 days. Charles never did discover the art of successful parenting This is now refuted by people associated with Diana, who claim the share was more evenly spread, but even they agree that when Charles did have the boys they would often be parked with their nanny Tiggy Legge-Bourke or with close friends of the Prince, such as Emilie van Cutsem. Charles never did discover the art of successful parenting but given his own upbringing that hardly comes as a surprise. "He needed to become father and mother to his boys after Diana died," I was told. "He never quite managed that." So here we have a picture of a small, vulnerable boy who loses his mother in a horrifying accident at the critical age of puberty and is thrust into a school whose standards are simply too high for him to achieve anything which would engender a very necessary sense of self-worth. At the same time, he must live with the media's never-ending obsession with Diana and a stream of often distasteful and highly embarrassing revelations about her life from friends, former Palace employees and lovers. Then there is the bitter feeling between the Spencers and Windsors that poisoned relations with his mother's family. Harry's anger With this background it is, easier to understand where, and why, things have gone wrong for Harry - for psychologists argue that a lack of self-worth often manifests itself in anger and erratic behaviour. Certainly, he had plenty to be angry about - growing up without a mother and with a hands-off father, left to his own devices for days on end at Highgrove while forever being reminded by his peers just how privileged his life is. To that mixture add some further ingredients: the fact that perhaps he chose his friends unwisely. And that perhaps, through his mother, he inherited that Spencer waywardness which runs through the family like the lettering through a stick of Blackpool rock. Put it all altogether and we arrive at a mixed-up young man who, it would be fair to say, stands only an even chance of pulling off an Army career - one bears in mind the chill warning of Sandhurst's commandant, Major General Andrew Ritchie, who cautioned: "I view misbehaving very dimly. "I have removed certain cadets when their behaviour is not the standard of an officer, and I would do so again. He is the same as everyone else." If Harry does manage to survive the first "five weeks of hell", as Sandhurst so proudly describes it, will it, in the end, be the making of him? Navy a better choice - former courtier The former courtier I spoke to did not hold out too much hope. "He is going to a cavalry regiment, and cavalry regiments are not exactly the future," I was told. "The officers perpetuate the class system, and their attitudes and views generally are Colonel Blimpish to put it mildly. "They may be good soldiers, but they are snobbish and aloof, and bound up in themselves -they seem to take a special pleasure in it. "It would have served the Royal Family's purpose much better if he had chosen the Royal Navy, which is pretty classless these days and where there is a true sense of mutual support through all ranks." But, the courtier added, Harry had idolised Captain James Hewitt during the soldier's affair with Princess Diana, and it was at that early age that he decided that a cavalry officer was a good thing to be. Hewitt - a good soldier, if a flawed personality - encouraged the young Prince in his ambitions. We must wait and see whether it was, in the end, a good career choice or whether Harry might have been better employed working, say, for the Duchy of Cornwall while acquiring a bigger portfolio of charity work. He has already demonstrated a certain promise through his work - albeit orchestrated by Clarence House with the very particular aim of rehabilitating the Prince in the eyes of the public - with Aids orphans in Africa. Harry has not yet blown it There is, his friends would argue, a great deal that is good about Prince Harry. And what seems bad in the Prince - drinking, taking soft drugs, that senseless Nazi prank - are taken for the norm in many middle-class households these days, even if parents have loftier ambitions for their children. Harry has not yet blown it. But perhaps Prince Charles should bear in mind the example of his greatuncle Prince George, Duke of Kent. George, every bit as glamorous in the 1920s as Harry is today, was virtually ignored by his father George V. Although he started out on a service career, drink and drugs were soon his undoing: he had been idle for too long in his youth and had the time to seek out the distractions which would keep him from the boredom he dreaded. Harry, too, without constant supervision - and intervention - by Prince Charles could easily become bored with the prospect of the royal life ahead of him. Now that his father is married to the woman he's loved for more than 30 years, surely it is time for him to pay closer attention to a man-child still desperately in need of guidance? The awesome Major General Ritchie warned parents last Sunday of the struggles ahead for their children. "Expect the odd anguished phone call," he told them. He might, however, have saved his breath in Prince Charles's case: this week Papa had been on retreat, in an isolated Romanian monastery, blissfully far beyond the reach of telecommunication.

Williams Files Suit Against Look-Alike MINNEAPOLIS - It takes more than hairy arms and a good Mrs. Doubtfire impersonation to be Robin Williams. The 52-year-old comedian-actor claims a look-alike named Michael Clayton duped a reporter and a charity organizer into thinking he really was Williams. Williams' federal lawsuit claims the look-alike's agent, Michael Pool, called reporters in September to set up an airport interview. Star Tribune gossip columnist C.J. interviewed the man and wrote that he "knows how to settle down and blend in; when there's no movie, he changes the hair color. If that guy wasn't blond, he'd look just like Robin Williams, some travelers seemed to be thinking." She went on to quote "Williams" talking about Prince and said he sometimes mimicked a Minnesota accent. "I was completely suckered," C.J. wrote four days later after discovering the man was really Clayton. "When Pool arrived with `Williams,' I was surprised by the blond hair. My suspicions eased when I saw Clayton's hairy arms." The lawsuit, which includes allegations of false advertising, also says Clayton duped a woman who was organizing a charity for the Punkin Center Rural Fire Department in Missouri. The lawsuit said Shirley Collins questioned whether she was really dealing with Williams until Pool put a man on the phone who launched into a Mrs. Doubtfire impersonation. Clayton and Pool didn't immediately return phone messages left Friday by The Associated Press. The lawsuit asks for an unspecified amount of money and that Clayton impersonate Williams only if he tells people that he isn't the actor. Clayton's Web site describes his act and says he is commonly mistaken for Williams. http://www.mccartytalent.com/Entertainers/...el_clayton.html If you go to the above site and look, IMHO he doesnt look much like Williams at all! Would hate to be that reporter. :rofl

Paris Hilton Touts Spicy Burger in TV Ad LOS ANGELES - Paris Hilton likes her burgers spicy. The hotel heiress, actress, jewelry designer and entrepreneur will star in a television commercial next week in which she will slap suds on the side of a Bentley automobile and chomp on a thick burger while clad in a skimpy black bathing suit. Hilton will perform the feat to a rock version of the song "I Love Paris in the Springtime." The ad for the fast-food chain Carl's Jr. will feature Hilton's signature tag line, which doubles as a reference to the barbecue sauce and jalapenos-pepper laden sandwich

Cameron Diaz Plans to Sue British Paper LONDON (AP) - Cameron Diaz is suing the British tabloid newspaper The Sun over a story suggesting she was having an affair with a married man. Lawyer Simon Smith said the actress had instructed his firm, Schillings, to start libel proceedings against the publishers of The Sun. Smith said lawyers hoped to file a writ by Monday. The Sun said it wouldn't comment until it had received legal papers. On Thursday, The Sun carried a story claiming Diaz, who is dating singer Justin Timberlake, had a close relationship with a married television producer. Schillings accused the newspaper of "falsely alleging that she had embarked upon a secret affair with a married man." The firm is also representing Timberlake in a lawsuit against the News of the World tabloid over a story claiming he had cheated on Diaz.

Cameron's Tabloid Tangle By Sarah Hall There's something about the National Enquirer that's ticking off Cameron Diaz--namely a cover story that accuses her of cheating on boyfriend Justin Timberlake. The tabloid's current cover features grainy photos of the Shrek star embracing a producer of her new MTV show, Trippin'. The accompanying story reports that Diaz and the nonfamous Shane Nickerson were caught in a "passionate clinch" in broad daylight. Unfortunately for gossip mongers everywhere, the Enquirer's pictures fail to demonstrate much passion, as it's unclear from the photos whether Diaz and Nickerson are sharing anything more than a hug. Diaz's rep, Brad Cafarelli, released a statement calling the story "false and salacious." "This is a case of a tabloid colluding with the stalkerazzi in an attempt to distort the truth and mislead the public. They have intentionally tried to manipulate the photographic images in such a way that would support their false and salacious story, when in fact they do not," the statement read. "Shane is a friend and associate of Cameron's, who works with her on her MTV show, Trippin'. He is not a public figure and, because of these lies and misrepresentaions, he and his family are being hounded and harrassed by the tabloid media. There is absolutely no romantic relationship between them whatsoever, contrary to these sad, mean-spirited attempts to create drama where none exists." Diaz's rep said the actress has demanded a retraction and is exploring her legal options. Meanwhile, Nickerson, who's married and has a year-old daughter, also denied that anything untoward had happened with Diaz. The Trippin' producer even chronicled his diary of a non-affair on his blog, calling it a "ludicrous story." It's not the first time the tabloids have gotten it wrong when it comes to Diaz's love life. Earlier this month, the News of the World reported that Diaz and Timberlake planned to wed in secret in France last weekend--a rumor that proved to be false. Instead of strutting the aisle, Timberlake checked into the hospital to undergo throat surgery on May 5, to remove benign throat nodules from his vocal cords, People magazine reports. The singer will reportedly be resting his voice for the next three months. Following his recovery, he will be teaming up with Diaz for a role in Shrek 3.

The Skinny on Ren

Pope's books selling like hotcakes: U.S. publisher SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Joseph Ratzinger, who became Pope Benedict XVI last month, has another new title: best selling author, his U.S. publisher said on Wednesday. "It's just amazing the interest in the Pope's writings," said Mark Brumley, president of Ignatius Press, which has the U.S. rights to Benedict's writings. "We're reprinted over 300,000 copies of his books and we've sold out in the first couple of days all the copies we had on hand," he said. "Almost all of those 300,000 copies we're reprinted are spoken for." The non-profit San Francisco-based publisher started printing Ratzinger's works a quarter century ago in an effort to spread the works of leading European theologians. When Ratzinger's fellow cardinals named him successor to Pope John Paul II, Ignatius Press experienced an unprecedented surge in demand for books by the incoming pontiff. "We have a somewhat unique figure in this pope who was so prolific before becoming pope," Brumley told Reuters. "Most of the time you don't have a man elected to the papacy who has written, you know, three dozen books as Joseph Ratzinger has." Among his most popular works are "Salt of the Earth," a transcript of a lengthy interview he gave nearly a decade ago, and the first volume of his memoirs.

Chappelle Reportedly Checks Into Facility By DAVID BAUDER AP Television Writer NEW YORK - Comedy Central star Dave Chappelle has checked himself into a mental health facility in South Africa, the magazine Entertainment Weekly reported on Wednesday. The comedian's whereabouts and condition have been unknown since Comedy Central abruptly announced last week that the planned May 31 launch of the third season of "Chappelle's Show" had been postponed and production halted. Chappelle flew from Newark, N.J., to South Africa on April 28 for treatment, said the magazine, quoting a source close to the show it would not identify. Entertainment Weekly said it had corroborating sources for its story. "We don't know where he is," Comedy Central spokesman Tony Fox said. "We've heard about South Africa. We don't know. We haven't talked to Dave." Chappelle's spokesman, Matt Labov, would not comment on the magazine's story. "It seems like the issues he's contending with are really quite serious," said Dade Hayes, a senior editor at Entertainment Weekly. "It isn't a case of him spending a weekend someplace recuperating from exhaustion." The magazine's sources say Chappelle is still in the facility, which was not named, Hayes said. Chappelle's representatives have denied that the comedian was abusing drugs. Chappelle reportedly signed a $50 million deal with Comedy Central for two more seasons of his show, a payday made possible because of the explosive sales of the show's first season DVD. The magazine said Chappelle had shot four to five episodes' worth of sketches for the new season, but none of its onstage introductions.

Mena Suvari Calls It Splits By Sarah Hall Mean Suvari with her husband cinematographer Robert Brinkmann Mena Suvari is putting her American beauty back on the market. The actress has filed for divorce from her husband of five years, cinematographer Robert Brinkmann, E! has confirmed. The court documents, filed Tuesday, cited "irreconcilable differences" as the reason behind the split. Us Weekly was the first to report the divorce proceedings. Suvari, 25, and Brinkmann, 43, wed in March 2000, shortly after Suvari's back-to-back breakthrough performances as a choir girl in American Pie and the eye-popping object of Kevin Spacey's infatuation in American Beauty. The twosome collaborated on 2001's Sugar & Spice, in which Suvari played a bank-robbing cheerleader, while Brinkmann provided his camera guy expertise. Suvari also worked with Brinkmann on the indie film Standing Still, which premieres next month at the Cinevegas Film Festival and on Stephen Tobolowsky's Birthday Party, which premiered at the HBO U.S. Comedy Arts Fesival in Aspen in February. Outside of her work with her soon-to-be ex, Suvari reteamed with her Beauty screenwriter Alan Ball last year for a reoccurring role on his HBO series, Six Feet Under. She also appeared in this year's Beauty Shop with Queen Latifah and will be seen in the upcoming comedy Rumor Has It with Jennifer Aniston.

Stones Announce New Album, World Tour BY LARRY McSHANE Associated Press Writer NEW YORK - Roll over Beethoven, and tell Tchaikovsky the news: The Rolling Stones announced a new album and world tour Tuesday with a three-song mini-concert at one of Manhattan's bastions of classical music, the Juilliard School. The familiar crunching riff of "Start Me Up" was greeted with a roar from hundreds of fans filling Lincoln Center from its plaza to its rooftops, as sixtysomething lead singer Mick Jagger launched into the lyrics. "Thank you very much guys," Jagger told the cheering crowd at the century-old conservatory on a sunny spring afternoon. "This is one of the earliest concerts we've played." The brief show promoted the tour that begins Aug. 21 at Fenway Park, where the legendary rock dinosaurs will play in front of the Green Monster. Dates in North America will continue through December. The as-yet-untitled new album is "about 85 percent done," Jagger said. It would be the first collection of all-new material from the Stones since 1997's "Bridges to Babylon." Prices will average $100-105 per ticket, with seats for the first shows

Country Singer Mindy McCready's Ex Charged NASHVILLE, Tenn. - A former boyfriend of country singer Mindy McCready has been charged with attempted murder after allegedly breaking into her home and beating her up. William McKnight was also charged with aggravated burglary in the incident early Sunday. He was being held Monday in lieu of $130,000 bond. McCready, who had a No. 1 hit in 1996 with "Guys Do It All the Time," was treated and released at a hospital following the attack, according to broadcast reports. Last Friday, McCready, 28, was charged with drunken driving after police stopped her in the upscale suburb of Belle Meade for speeding. Police said the officer smelled alcohol in the vehicle and McCready performed poorly on field sobriety tests. She refused to take a breath test. McCready was also charged with driving on a suspended license and failure to consent to the breath test, according to police. She was freed on $3,500 bond. McCready later denied the charges, although she did acknowledge speeding. "We all make mistakes. We're human," McCready said. McCready is on three years supervised probation after pleading guilty to fraudulently obtaining the painkiller OxyContin at a suburban pharmacy in February 2004, using the name of a friend on the prescription. She was fined $4,000 and ordered to perform 200 hours of community service. McCready's other hits include "Ten Thousand Angels" and "A Girl's Gotta Do (What a Girl's Gotta Do)."

Renee Zellweger, Kenny Chesney Get Married By Charlie Amter Rene Zellweger is a singleton no more. After a whirlwind four-month courtship, the erstwhile Bridget Jones' Diary spinster was hitched to country star Kenny Chesney Monday in the Virgin Islands, her publicist confirmed to E! The freshy minted marrieds--heretofore known as "RenKen"--tied the knot "in front of close friends and family in St. John," said Zellweger publicist Nanci Ryder, who offered few details of the surprise nuptials, other than Zellweger's gown of choice (a Carolina Herrera number). Chesney went barefoot for the cermony, per Entertainment Tonight, but no immediate word on whether he went down the aisle with his Stetson on. The couple "laughed and cried" during the 15-minute ceremony, ET reports. Zellweger and Chesney have only been dating since Jan. 15, when they met at the Concert of Hope tsunami relief benefit. She served him his traditional margarita at an Apr. 29 show in Jacksonville, Florida, and last week the couple were spotted getting all kissy at a P.F. Chang's restaurant near Nashville. This week's People quotes Zellweger's publicist saying the twosome "are in the very early stages of getting to know each other." We can't wait to see what happens once they get past that awkward stage. This is the first marriage for both.
