The man who hit Leona Lewis yesterday has been charged with assault.
The “Bleeding Love” singer had been autographing copies of her new book, Dreams, in London when the 6’ 5” suspect punched her in the head.
The man, who has since been identified as Peter Kopwalczyk, waited patiently in line to speak to Leona. When the 29-year-old reached the front of the line, he lashed out. Five members of Lewis’ security team then quickly jumped on Kopwalczyk and pinned him down.

The person who first saw Stephen Gately’s body has been unable to sleep since the discovery.
Georgi Dochev had returned to the holiday apartment shared by the Boyzone star and his partner Andy Cowles after meeting the couple in a gay club in Majorca last Friday. The 33-year-old singer was later spotted in a “crouched, prayer position” the next morning.
“I was the one who found him. I am devastated. I came from the bedroom and found him dead and I woke his partner. He was white and very cold,” Dochev said. “I was the one who called the ambulance because Andy was too upset. He was holding Stephen. It’s awful, I am in shock and I cannot sleep for days. It is really upsetting. I have only known him for a while. I have talked to the police but I cannot speak of other things. I just wish I could have saved him.”

N.E.R.D. Taking No Prisoners with New Singer
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Artist News, Upcoming Releases, Hip-Hop & Rap,
The men of N.E.R.D. have entered a new dimension with help from a new female singer.
The hip-hop stars are thrilled with the way latest line-up addition Rhea has altered their music with her vocals and think it has taken their music to another level.
“Musically, we’re just somewhere else with her. The music is now very three-dimensional. It’s something you have to hear. But you’ll see. We’re definitely somewhere else. I want to leave that impact moment for when you purchase your download and you purchase your CD. The music is very three-dimensional. We’re just really excited. We feel like N.E.R.D. has always been the punks of hip-hop and the outcasts of alternative music — just a little different. But this time, we’re taking no prisoners,” band member Pharrell Williams said.

Kylie Minogue is about to become a Las Vegas showgirl.
The “Wow” singer - who has spent years trying to crack the US - has been offered a residency in the city after impressing American fans with her recent tour.

She was nervous about going over for the first time, but it has gone better than she expected,” Kylie’s sister Dannii revealed to Britain’s Daily Mirror. “She has now been asked to take the show back to Vegas and extend it as a residency over there. I’m so proud of her.”
Las Vegas promoters were mesmerized by her glamorous show and are convinced she can draw in the crowds night after night.
Dannii says Kylie is thrilled by the offer and she will be supported by her family on her opening night. “Kylie called to tell me how well everything has been going and about the Vegas offer. I was joking with her that is finally where she belongs!” she said. “Kylie’s show is perfect for Vegas, it’s so theatrical. She has loved performing out there.”

Adele Scared of Alienating Fans
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Artist News, Awards, Gossip, Upcoming Releases, Pop,
Adele is worried her new album could be a failure. The “Hometown Glory” singer is working on her second LP, but is torn between her musical progression and pleasing her established fanbase.
“I’m a bit scared. Obviously there are new avenues that I want to go down with the sound and I don’t want to leave behind the fans who might not like the new sound I am going for, so I’m a bit wary of that,” she told BANG Showbiz at the BMI London Awards (Broadcast Music Incorporated). “I’m writing it slowly but surely. I have a producer but I don’t want anyone to know who it is until the record is done, in case it flops.”
Adele picked up a Pop Award for single “Chasing Pavements” at the ceremony - held at the Dorchester Hotel by the performing rights organization, which collects license fees for artists for use of their songs on TV radio and film. Pop Awards are given to tracks by European songwriters which have gained the most plays on US radio.
