STAR'S STUFF:

Rush has started pre-production. Guitarist Alex Lifeson is engineering the sessions. This is their first new music since its 2007 album Snakes & Arrows. Drummer Neil Peart told the Canadian Press that the band was going to work on two songs, saying, "If they turn out well, we'll maybe even release them (on their own). We're saying, what if we do a little songwriting and then a little touring to play those songs, and then get back to the songwriting again? It would be an interesting way to shake up our usual way." Bassist/singer Geddy Lee told us a while back that he's the one who usually gets the writing and recording process started"I think it's usually me, because I have more Jewish guilt than the other guys do. And even though I have no problem completely disregarding my responsibilities for at least a year, after a year and a couple of months I start feeling a bit like I should really probably do something that's less indulgent than collecting wine or going to ball games or playing tennis."

Elton John reportedly wants to do another duet with Lady Gaga -- this time, he's interested in recording the next James Bond movie theme song. It's been rumored that Gaga is in the running to do a song to the film series. Elton recently told a U.K. newspaper, "I'm really pleased that Lady Gaga is up for the theme tune. She's fantastic and it would be amazing to do a duet." Sir Elton is planning another duet with Gaga after their Grammy performance together duet with Gaga at a Rainforest fundraiser event in May in N.Y I thought they were GREAT at the Grammy's!!! Meanwhile, I have been hearing this rumor for a while… Elton is in the running to replace Simon Cowell on American Idol next season. As much as I love Ellen.....I think Elton is more suited to be a judge, no????

HAVE A SWEET NIGHT............CIAO!
