Britney Spears Hit & Run
Life is going from one problem to another. That’s in the case of Britney Spears. The troubled pop singer’s life is about getting into one problem to another as if it will never come to an end. Has been reported to have cut deal in the hit and run case she involved in, the mother of two, on the other hand, lost the visitation rights of children.
Spears, according to TMZ.com, has cut deal with the owner of the car she hit in a parking lot last August. She’s said to have agreed to pay the car owner approximately $1,000 for damage plus rental car expenses.
Citing law enforcement sources TMZ.com furthermore reported that while the hit and run case would probably be dropped now that Spears reached a civil settlement, the driving without a license charge probably will not be dropped.
In another dose of bad news, Spears visitation rights with sons Sean Preston and Jayden James were suspended Thursday morning October 18th because she’s not complying with court orders for drug testing in her custody battle with her ex-husband Kevin Federline. Still according to TMZ.com, Spears is claimed to have failed to provide contact info to the people who were supposed to conduct the random drug tests. And as the judge had previously stated, a missed test is a failed test!
Maroon 5’s Change Of Clothing
Maroon 5’s Levine expands his wardrobe
It’s not just a new look, but some different directions.
Beyond winning best new artist Grammys and breaking week-of-release iTunes records for Maroon 5’s It Won’t Be Soon Before Long, there’s Adam Levine.
The lilting jazzy singer; the guy who not only dueted with raunchy hip-hoppers Ying Yang Twins but sang on rapper/producer Kanye West’s Late Registration (Levine’s the sweetest part of “Heard ‘Em Say”).
Levine just paired with Andy Samberg and Fred Armisen during Saturday Night Live, clowning Iran’s prez, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, in song. Which does he think holds more sway over Maroon 5’s minions? “Aw, man I’m new to comedy, so I think my cred with the hip-hop crowd is strongest,” Levine says, stifling a chuckle. “I love trying different things.”
That includes turning Maroon 5 from T-shirt-wearing grungers during the rise of their last album, Songs about Jane, into suit-wearing dandies in accordance with “Won’t Be Soon’s” chic funk.
“We spent four years on the road living out of a duffle bag wearing the same three T-shirts, we just wanted to clean up,” Levine, the son of a Los Angeles clothier, says of the sartorial sensibility that extended itself into the sleek sound of new songs like “Makes Me Wonder.” That was the first tune written for the new album, whose soulful rolls and catchy choruses glean inspiration from Levine favorites the Police, Stevie Wonder, the Beatles and Talking Heads. “It wasn’t so much a sit-down-and-write song,” he says of “Makes Me Wonder.” “It just had the tone that the late ’70s/early ’80s had when disco was dying and rock bands were taking over again but still stuck in that dancey vibe.”
What was old hat then was like a new suit to Maroon 5.
