| Rosie
Outs Aiken |
TMZ reports: Rosie O'Donnell started a bitchfight
with fellow morning-diva Kelly Ripa when she accused Ripa of making a "homophobic"
remark. The fracas started on "The View" when O'Donnell said that Ripa
was "homophobic" for her scolding of Aiken when he co-hosted her show the
other day and playfully put his hand over her mouth, prompting Ripa to
snap, "I don't know where that hand has been." Rosie suggested that if
Aiken had been a "straight guy, a cute guy" or, for instance, Mario Lopez,
Ripa wouldn't have made the same remark. (Aiken, of course, has never acknowledged
that he's gay.)
Ripa was incensed enough to call into the
show immediately, firing away that Rosie's accusation was "outrageous"
and "irresponsible" and that Ripa made the remark last Friday because it
was "cold and flu season" and that Aiken had shaken the hands of the studio
audience.[see full story for more]- Click

Appeal |
FMQB reports: Yesterday, lawyers for CBS filed
an official appeal contesting the FCC's ruling over the infamous 2004 Janet
Jackson/Super Bowl incident, as well as the $550,000 fine levied against
the network. CBS stated in the filing that it had broadcast "an unscripted,
unauthorized, and unintended long-distance shot of Ms. Jackson's breast
for nine-sixteenths of one second," but committed no wrongdoing.
Additionally, the network placed the blame
on Jackson and Justin Timberlake, who "independently and clandestinely
devised the finale" of her performance without informing anyone from CBS.[see

| Out
of the Cradle |
antiMusic reports: In his latest MorleyView,
antiMusic's very own Morley Seaver caught up with Adrian Erlandsson who
announced his depture from Cradle of Filth last week. Here is a bit of
Morley's intro as well as a few questions from the MorleyView: I did an
email interview with the powerhouse drummer who is a co-founder of The
Haunted as well as past member of At The Gates, this week to find out all
the news. Here's what he had to say:
antiMUSIC: Well, the big news first. You've
left Cradle. Can you tell us what led to your decision? ** Adrian: I joined
Cradle in the summer of '99 and have had some good times creating music
with the band and playing live. But as a musician when things become too
familiar, it is time to move on. I need a certain edge in everything that
I do when that it gone it's time to move on. So I decided to leave and
concentrate on other things. antiMUSIC: Why did you pick this time to leave
when the tour has just begun? ** Adrian: There is more to it than that.
I had left before but we had to sort out the legal sides before it could
be announced.
antiMUSIC: How and when did Nemhain come
to be? ** Adrian: Me and my wife Amber have been talking along time about
how amazing it would be to have a band together, creating music together,
playing together and eventually touring the world together. We had some
of our close friends over and realized that we had all the members that
we need for the band right here in the room! In the excitement an acoustic
guitar came out and there was the first Nemhain Jam! Amber already had
a lot of lyrics and song ideas which Cherry and her started working on
straight away. The fire and devotion within the band beats any band I have
been in before!!! [see the full story for the full MorleyView with info

than halfway home on their first album since 2000, according to posts from
drummer Jimmy Chamberlin on the group's MySpace.com site. "We have been
working day and night in the studio and I am happy to say that the drums
are finished!," he wrote earlier this month. "After almost a year of work,
to finally sit down and listen to the drum takes, one after another, was
a truly joyful experience."
Last week, he chronicled a "magnificent
guitar symphony" from Billy Corgan featuring "eight guitars resonating
in one big harmonic handshake. It is still ringing in my ears this morning."[see
