Babyshambles, The Ting Tings, Amy Winehouse, Christina Aguilera - your music gossip stop

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

Today's top gossip:

The Rolling Stones' guitarist Ronnie Wood has apparently developed an interest in flower arranging. Wood recently heard about a huge flower sculpture of the Stones was on display in Holland - and is now "desperate to get his hands on one of his own". As the original has wilted and died, Wood is in talks with the Dutch artists to make him another one - and wants the sculpture to be part of the stage set on the next Stones world tour (The Sun).

From the papers:

Wood also apparently had the door slammed in his face when he went to visit his friend Kate Moss. The Rolling Stone had apparently brought a "peace offering" of a painting for Moss - who has apparently "taken the side" of Wood's estranged wife Jo after their recent "split" (Daily Star).

Babyshambles man Pete Doherty is apparently planning to spend Halloween with the Transmutants - a group who pierce themselves with clean needles and specialise in pain-themed entertainment at parties (Daily Star).

The Ting Tings want to record the theme song for the new 'Ghostbusters' film. "We're obsessed with it," said singer Katie White] (The Sun).

Lily Allen befriended celebrity cook Nigella Lawson at a launch party for Nigella's husband Charles Saatchi's art gallery (Daily Star).

The Ting Tings want to record the theme song for the new 'Ghostbusters' film - This would be even worse than the film!

I think Ronnie actually means "deflowering", not "flower arranging". Taking young women and having his way with them...

I dont think Ronnie deflowered that girl. She knew exactly who he is. And that is the truth. Hey if that is what he wants that is sad, but don't act as if she did't know what she was getting into. Or who was getting into her! I just feel sorry for Jo.
