Liam Gallagher 'probably loves' the All Saints song about him, says ex-wife Nicole Appleton http://www.nme.com/news/liam-gallagher/96975 Liam Gallagher "probably loves" the recent All Saints single about him, his ex-wife Nicole Appleton has suggested. Released in February, 'One Strike' was inspired by conversations Appleton had with bandmate Shaznay Lewis, All Saints' main songwriter, during her split from the Oasis frontman. "It's not about the divorce, it's about the moment I found out what he did to me. It's pretty much that," Nicole Appleton told i-D at the time, referencing Gallagher's alleged extra-marital affair. "Broken promises, time to leave / I had everything that you needed," are among the song's more pointed lyrics. Asked by The Times whether Gallagher has heard the song, Nicole Appleton replied: "Gosh, I don't know. Probably. Yeah, he's curious. He probably loves it." "It's his all-time top favourite song!" added Lewis jokingly, prompting laughter from her bandmates. Meanwhile, Liam Gallagher is now in the process of making his first ever solo album and sometime rival Robbie Williams has wished him well in the endeavour. "Right now I just want him to make a really great album. The world misses him and I hope it is brilliant," the Take That star said earlier this week. | | 10:04a |

Danny DeVito recalls the time Robin Williams almost made him die with laughter http://www.nme.com/filmandtv/news/danny-devito-recalls-the-time-robin-williams-almos/419048 Danny DeVito has spoken about the time Robin Williams nearly made him die with laughter. The veteran actor, who has recently said he leave his US comedy series It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia after two more seasons, praised Williams' legendary sense of humour in a new interview. "I laughed my ass off with him," DeVito told Metro. "He once almost killed me in a pool. I'm not a great swimmer, I was in the deep end and he was holding court, and I never laughed so hard - I swallowed a big gulp of water and choked for five minutes." Thankfully, onlookers managed to drag DeVito from the pool and the actor managed to catch his breath. "Everybody was laughing at me. It was pretty good," DeVito added. "They did help me out of the pool. I don't remember [the joke that made me laugh so hard]. He used to go off on rants. It could be airplanes, bicycles, anything. He was such a clown and I loved him for that." DeVito is currently in the UK promoting his new short film Curmudgeons, a dark comedy which he directed and stars in.

Azealia Banks no longer voting for Donald Trump following groping comments http://www.nme.com/news/azealia-banks/96980 Azealia Banks has stated that she will no longer vote for Donald Trump following controversial comments that have recently come to light. A 2005 conversation of Trump's recently surfaced, seeing him boast about groping a married woman. In it, he says: "I moved on her and I failed, Ill admit it... I did try and fuck her. She was married... I am automatically attracted to beautiful women. I just start kissing them. Its like a magnet. Just kiss, I dont even wait... and when youre a star, they let you do it. You can do anything... Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything." Having previously stated that she would vote for Trump because he's "evil, like America", Banks has now withdrawn her endorsement. She recently wrote on Facebook: "I made a major mistake endorsing toupey-toupee. Womens rights are important and we must protect them. I tried.... I reached .... I even carried ...... I take it all back." READ MORE: The Musicians Who Hate Trump The Most Getty Earlier this year, Banks said that she was "ready to admit" that she's backing the billionaire. Writing on Twitter, Banks outlined her reasoning, saying she thought Trump is "the only one who truly has the balls to bust up big business", criticising Democrats rival Hillary Clinton as being "too tied in with them" and left-leaning candidate Bernie Sanders as having "no clout". "I only trust this country to be what it is: full of shit," she continued. "Takes shit to know shit so we may as well, put a piece of shit in the White House". "In conclusion, I think Donald Trump is evil like America is evil and in order for America to keep up with itself it needs him." Responding to the subsequent criticism she received from fans upon making the remarks, Banks later added: "No critical thinking allowed for the black woman. Sheesh." | | 8:48p |
Prince's ashes reportedly on display at Paisley Park http://www.nme.com/news/prince/96981 Prince's Paisley Park home/recording studio has opened to the public and reports claim that the late music icon's ashes are among the items on display. Located in Chanhassen in his home state of Minnesota, Paisley Park became both a residence and a place of creativity for Prince after construction was completed in 1988. The artist intended the compound to become a museum after his death, leaving behind guidelines on such aspects as how he wanted visitors to walk through Paisley Park during the tour. The St Paul Pioneer Press reports that the front atrium features a "miniature replica of Paisley Park" and "an urn containing Princes remains". Stereogum reports that the urn is made of ceramic and glass and was 3D printed, designed by the musician's sister and nephew. No photography is permitted at Paisley Park. Meanwhile, Prince's sister has revealed that the 'Purple Rain' icon's pet doves stopped crying after he died. In a new interview with The Today Show, his sister Tyka Nelson opened up about the eerie atmosphere in Prince's home after his passing. His two pet doves, Majesty and Divinity, fell silent. The birds credited with ambient singing on his album 'One Nite Alone'. If theyre quiet, it doesnt feel the same, she said. "After he passed, they werent talking. When I first came in, Im like, Wheres the doves? Whats going on? After being told that the doves were still there but had stopped singing, she suggested playing Prince's music. The 'Kiss' icon was found dead at his Minnesota Paisley Park home back in April, before an inquest found that he died of an accidental overdose of painkillers. He was just 57-years-old. |
