The Black Sabbath reunion is making headlines again. Drummer Bill Ward issued a public statement advising fans that he will not participate in the band's reunion unless he is presented with an agreement that reflects his contributions to the group's success and longevity. Basically… he said he ain't getting what he feels is a fair share of the Sabbath money pie and that he deserves better than what the band management have offered him. The other three members have responded publicly saying.. they are sorry to hear he feels that way… the door is open.. but they are carrying on without him with Rick Rubin in Birmingham while guitarist tony Iommi is also battling cancer. Madonna is furious over M.I.A. flipping the bird during her Superbowl set. Beyonce and Jay-Z have applied for a trademark for their baby's name blue ivy. The Jack White solo album Blunderbuss will debut in April. Motorcycle fan Billy Joel surprised the crowd at a Miami vintage bike fair by riding up on his motorcycle and then jumping on the stage to jam with a local band. ------------------------- WHATEVER Spice Girls are reuniting this year! Justin Bieber's bodyguard punched out a paparazzi photographer at LAX. -------------------------- You'd think these politicians would learn by now. Newt Gingrich is being sued for having used Eye of the Tiger are his campaign rallies. Wake up you GOP music thieving bastards… you can't just use any music you want to walk on stage.
