JENNIFER NETTLES WORRIES ABOUT THROAT PROBLEMS , TWISTED ANKLE

JENNIFER NETTLES

Jennifer Nettles’ injury to her voice isn’t the only damage that Sugarland has suffered this year. Kristian Bush twisted his ankle taking a header during the group’s April show in Atlanta. He tells about the incident, which occurred when he was running to the back of the hall at the Gwinnett Arena, mid-show to give away a signed guitar:

“I was looking for somebody, searching for somebody’s eyes. I tried to find a kid between 12 and 17. … I found one in the back of the arena, and I was running back down the stairs. I made the corner, and then rolled down on my face. I’m surprised it didn’t show up on YouTube. I finished the show, but I was seeing floaters and stars the whole time. After the show the doctor said, ‘You need to not walk.’ They stuck me through all the orthopedics guys for the Falcons. You wouldn’t believe the amount of drugs they can put you on to make your body function, but those drugs keep you from healing. You can’t do that with the voice, either. You can’t shoot yourself up with steroids because you’re healing your muscles. We are trying to treat ourselves as professional athletes now, which means you have to stay in shape, you can’t drink, you can’t smoke, you can’t party.”

Technologically perfect, the concert footage is filled with fast-paced editing and camera work that captures the charismatic and photogenic Nettles working the crowd while Bush seems content to play Oates to her Hall, or Teller to her Penn. Not that his contributions are qualitatively lesser, but it is pretty obvious who is the focal point.

With only five tracks duplicated between the CD and the DVD, Sugarland gives its loyal fans a well-deserved “thank you” and a big plateful of musical food for the masses.

Demi Lovato maintains balancing act of her new Album

Demi Lovato

Just over a year ago, Demi Lovato said she could still “go to the mall or whatever” and not be mobbed by screaming fans.

But then, a few things happened: Disney Channel flick “Camp Rock,” debut album “Don’t Forget,” touring with the Jonas Brothers.

Poof! A tween star was born.

“It’s a change, and my life is different. But at the same time, it’s really not that big of a difference,” Lovato said.
“I still have the same friends. I’m just a little busier. I’ve been having so much fun.”

The release is the fourth Disney Music Group album to hit the top of the Billboard 200 chart in the past year, behind hits by the Jonas Brothers, Rascal Flatts and Miley Cyrus.

But Lovato's 108,000 first-week sales lag behind those of Michael Jackson's 2003 hits album Number Ones, which sold 154,000 copies last week. The King of Pop's compilation is ineligible for the mainstream countdown.

Meanwhile, Daughtry's Leave This Town and Maxwell's Blacksummersnight both drop spots to two and three, respectively, on the new chart.

Jordin Sparks' new release Battlefield debuts at seven.

Judge names Katherine Jackson permanent custodian of Michael's children

Katherine Jackson

A judge has ruled that Michael Jackson's mother should raise the King of Pop's children, giving legal backing to a deal agreed last week.

Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Mitchell Beckloff appointed Katherine Jackson as the permanent guardian of the late singer's three children during a court hearing in Los Angeles today.

Mrs Jackson was named by Michael Jackson as his first choice to raise his children in a 2002 will filed with the court.




The 79-year-old is the only person to formally petition for custody of the children since Jackson's death on June 25 at the age of 50.

Mrs. Jackson and her son's ex-wife Deborah Rowe reached a custody agreement last week.
The three children, who range in age from 7 to 12, have been living with Mrs. Jackson at the family's home in the San Fernando Valley since their father's death. The two eldest children signed declarations apparently indicating they wanted to remain with Mrs. Jackson.

Penelope Cruz left embarrassed over fashion faux pas , she is in control

Penelope Cruz

Spanish actress Penelope Cruz was left shame-faced as she walked down a red carpet in a scarlet suit and blamed losing her luggage on a flight to London for the fashion faux pas.

The Volver beauty jetted in to the British capital from Madrid to attend a glamorous event at the city's Somerset House with her Broken Embraces director, Pedro Almodovar and instead of donning a full-length gown for the glitzy bash, Cruz was forced to pull on a red suit she kept in her hand luggage - after the airline she was travelling with misplaced her bags, reports contactmusic.com.

Despite the wardrobe setback, Penelope was delighted to be in the UK but admitted she has difficulty coping with the unpredictable climate.



The 35-year-old screen beauty confessed she had even prayed for the day to stay dry ahead of the film's open air screening.

Speaking at London's Somerset House, Penelope told BANG Showbiz: "I love London... but I have difficulties with the rainy weather.

"I have decided it is not going to rain, I was here for many months this year making a movie and I love London, but I have trouble with grey weather so I said, 'No, please, not today.' So hopefully it's going to stay like this."
