Amy Winehouse Contemplates Revenge Against Bond Bosses

Amy Winehouse is considering revenge on James Bond execs after snubbing her offer to record the theme song for the movie Quantum of Solace, according to Female First. Miss Wino plans to release the song she and Mark Ronson recorded at the same time as the global release of Alicia Keys and Jack White’s single. Amy claims she wants to “prove that they made a big mistake” and told New magazine:

“I do think they could have waited a bit. If they want a worldwide hit I have them all up here (pointing to her beehive). I guess they are going for clean-cut and boring. When I do release mine - and I am tempted to do it on the same day - this would be the bigger hit. If they change their minds I’m waiting!”

Wouldn’t that suck for Amy if they release it at the same time and her song bombs by slow sales or gets very little air-time? It’ll be great fun to watch if she does it.

Wow, so get your videos ready. I wonder if Danny Noriega, one of the American Idol rejects, will submit one of his funny videos - he’d be perfect for her tour.

Alicia Keys will reportedly get married to her music producer boyfriend Kerry ‘Krucial’ Brothers in New York this summer. According to Star magazine, the lovebirds have booked Oheka Castle on Long Island for a wedding on July 4th.

Although they’ve never spoken about their relationship, they’ve been writing songs together for years and own the production company KrucialKeys and New York’s Oven Recording Studios. Keys rep hasn’t confirmed or denied the wedding plans.

Well, good for her. I wonder if she’s hopeful that the gay rumors will stop after she gets hitched. It didn’t seem to work for Whitney Houston though.

Alicia Keys told Blender magazine that she recorded her most sexual song so far. She said:

“I’m discovering my sexual side. I recorded this song … it’s so sensual, it moves you.”

Her manager even warned:

“We do not record songs like this!”

Alicia revealed an emotional breakdown she experienced after her fame grew quickly:

“I was hanging off the edge of a cliff. Something had to give, or I was gonna lose my mind.”

Her manager described the result of her depression as “dark, weird” music.

Apparently, Alicia said she now wears a gold AK-47 pendant around her neck “to symbolize strength, power and killing ‘em dead.”

It’s good to know she’s not depressed now and has found her “sexual side” but wearing an AK-47 pendant around her neck is kind of bizarre. I guess this makes her tough.

Grammy Photos of Celebrities Arrivals to Awards

Not sure why Beyoncé was bending forward like that,
maybe her back was hurting?
Alicia Keys was brave to sport a faux-hawk.
I was happy to see her later take that thing down.

Miley Cyrus tried to pose sexy, but looked a little uncomfortable.

Fergie made sure her boobs were on display.

Rihanna looked cute. Surprisngly, she didn’t
wear something more revealing.
