Britney Spears, Dave Grohl, Girls Aloud – Your music gossip stop

Welcome to the Daily Ligger: your morning stop-off to find out who in the world of music has been up to what.

Today’s top gossip:

Dolly Parton thinks her boobs are more famous than she is. The '9 To 5' singer has even given them nicknames – Shock and Awe. The country warbler realises they have been a massive asset to her career and Parton joked: “They have served me well, I don’t know if I’m supporting them or they’re supporting me.” She then added: “I’ve always had nice ones. But of course I’ve had them jacked up a bit.” (The Sun)
