What has been going on in the world of news while we've all been asleep?

»
Britney Spears has been visiting churches with her new
boyfriend, thus making everyone assume she is getting married and not
just out for a little pray. ('Britney Takes Beau Down Aisle' — The
Mirror)

» Gwen Stefani is moving to London to help her husband launch his solo career and no doubt live off the profits from her recent 'Early Winter' smash hit. ('Gwen Stefani To Quit US' — The Mirror)

»
Missy Elliot is working with Timbaland on her new album. ('Missy Back With Timba' — Daily Star)

»
Robbie Williams seems to be over his little grumble at the EMI shake-up — he is recording a load of new songs. ('Robbie's Hit By The Rhythm Stick' — The Sun)

»
Kaiser Chiefs' Ricky Wilson is hoping to sleep with Kylie Minogue. ('Chief Has A Pass To Bed Kylie' — The Sun)

»
Pete Wentz has waded into the pres­id­en­tial elections. ('Wentz Wants Obama' — Yahoo)

»
Amy Winehouse may be planning an album of Jewish holiday favour­ites. ('Winehouse Planning Jewish Holiday Album' — Yahoo)

»
Michael Jackson's new single has surfaced. ('Listen To A clip Of Michael Jackson's New Single' — The Times)

Blimey.
