Rolling Stone Member Busted

Rolling Stones band member Ron Wood was arrested last week for allegedly assaulting his 21-year old girlfriend. The 62-year old rock star was taken by police and held overnight in jail until he made bail the next morning. If you do the math, he and his girlfriend has a 41 year age difference. Geeze, he could pass as the girl’s freaking grandfather already! I’m surprised that he didn’t break a hip. Let’s get real people, the dude belongs in the Jurassic era. I just hope that his girlfriend is ok. Maybe we’ll get more details if the girl decides to file a lawsuit or something.

Lil Wayne Rip Off Lawsuit

Lil Wayne is getting into more trouble as he’s now being accused of ripping off the Rolling Stones. The rapper behind the lollipop song is being sued by a music publishing company that owns the rights to the Rolling Stones tune ‘Play With Fire’. Abkco Music Inc. is claiming that Lil Wayne released an alternate version of the song without their permission. The company is suit for copyright infringement and is seeking unspecified damages. The company is also calling his version “explicit, racist and offensive”. If it was a rip off, he wouldn’t have done too much to make it explicit. It’s a Rolling Stones tune. It was likely to have explicit undertones to begin with.

McCartney asks Jagger for advice

Sir Paul McCartney has asked former chart rival Sir Mick Jagger for advice.

The Beatles legend – who is set to embark on a world tour later this year – has reportedly approached the Rolling Stones frontman for tips on surviving life on the road, now he is in his sixties.

A source revealed: “Paul is really good friends with Mick. Despite rumours of rivalry, they’ve been mates since they started out in the sixties. Mick has advised him to take a relaxing break before he embarks on the tour and then to try and factor one or two days more than usual between shows if possible. He said that it is the travelling that is the really tiring thing.”

The Rolling Stones completed a two-year world tour in August last year, when Mick was 64. Paul – who recently finalised his divorce from Heather Mills – turns 66 next month.
