Singer Jordin Sparks is recovering after emergency surgery to have her appendix removed.

The 19-year-old was slated to perform in Australia on Sunday but was forced to scrap her appearance she was hospitalised with acute appendicitis on Wednesday night.

The singer logged on to her Twitter.com page from the recovery room on Thursday, posting a picture of herself and assuring fans she plans to be back on her feet in “the next week or so”.

She added: “Feeling a little better but very sore. Thank you so much for your thoughts & prayers. It means so much & it’s so powerful.”

Dancing With the Stars has turned Mya into a lean mean, waltzing machine — as she showed us at a Hollywood bash the other night.

But we need to make the most of her svelte physique… because she’s already planning the eating binge she’s gonna embark on when she’s voted off the talent show.

Mya says, “I want to be a fat pig after this for about a week, and go to movies, restaurants and do fun things like bowling and watching TV.”

Country singer Keith Urban cuts a thoughtful figure on Santa Monica beach, while shooting his new music video.

Wrapped up warm against the fresh sea air, Urban looks like he’s very deep in thought.

Did he forget his lyrics or perhaps he’s just dreaming of being back home in Tennessee with wife Nicole and their baby daughter.

After all, Kidman recently confessed the couple refuse to spend more than three days apart – now that’s love.

Mariah Carey turned fairy godmother in London last night to switch on the Christmas lights at the Westfield Shopping centre — without the kittens and doves she apparently wanted to unleash at the bash.

The singer asked for 20 white kittens and 100 doves…

Umm… Don’t cats kill birds?

Maybe she wanted to turn the mall into some bizarre and cruel bloodbath!

Thankfully, common sense prevailed.

A source tells the Daily Mail newspaper, “We did manage to source the doves that we were going to release into the sky, but the kittens proved terribly difficult.
“In the end, it was made clear that due to health and safety (restrictions), there was no way we could have the animals at Westfield. We do not allow pets into Westfield – that rule would apply for everyone.”

Taylor Swift had better hope she never finds herself thirsty in Idaho.

The country sensation is suing the owners of a bar in the state , because they allegedly played her music without permission.

Just her music?!

Swift has apparently teamed up with the BMI to take on bosses at the Sports Cellar, which doesn’t have a proper music license.

Taylor’s hate list is growing fast.

First Kanye, then Wynonna… now this?!
