David Gilmour is topper known for his distinctively spacey, atmospheric guitar work for Pink Floyd. Born March 6, 1944, in Cambridge, England, Gilmour was well acquainted with the members of Pink Floyd when they asked him to unite their band to supplement the guitar work of the increasingly temperamental Syd Barrett. When Barrett's mental partitioning made it impossible for him to proceed with the group, Gilmour became a permanent contributive member in time for their moment album, 1968's A Saucerful of Secrets. Gilmour has recorded solo albums during periods of Pink Floyd inactivity, including 1978's dwight Lyman Moody Saint David Gilmour, 1984's more melodic Around Face (after the separation of the Roger Waters-led lineup), and 2006's mellow, lyrical On an Island (which became a Top Ten hit). Gilmour has as well lententide his guitar to a identification number of other artists' records, notably Kate Bush and Bryan Ferry.

Dolly Parton versus Howard Stern

Dolly Parton has hit back at US radio DJ Howard Stern over an on air skit that made the singer sound racist and sexually explicit.

The 'shock jock' cut up bits from an audio book that Parton had narrated to make it sound as if she had made the remarks. Celebrity audio book splicing is a regular feature on Stern's shows.

Reacting to the joke, Parton issued a statement declaring she had been hurt by the DJ's actions.

"I have never been so shocked, hurt and humiliated in all my life," she said. "I cannot believe what Howard Stern has done to me. In a blue million years, I would never have such vulgar things come out of my mouth. They have done editing or some sort of trickery to make this horrible, horrible thing.

"Please accept my apology for them and certainly know I had nothing to do with this. If there was ever going to be a lawsuit, it's going to be over this. Just wanted you to know that I am completely devastated by this."

Nadine Coyle dating Josh Hartnett?

Girls Aloud star Nadine Coyle is rumoured to be dating Hollywood actor Josh Hartnett.
The pair have been spotted together in LA several times in the last week, according to the Daily Star.
A source told the newspaper: "The whole of Hollywood was talking about Josh and this pretty Irish girl. Not everyone knows Girls Aloud here so people were trying to work out who this stunning girl was.
"They were spotted at [temporary Oscar venue] Blanco 101 looking very much like a couple and chatting over drinks until the early hours."
Last month Derry-born star Nadine split with 'Desperate Housewives' actor Jesse Metcalfe after an on-off relationship.
She recently dismissed speculation that she was preparing to quit Girls Aloud.
