13 July 2009 2:41 AM, PDT | From Monsters and Critics | See recent Monsters and Critics news

Amy Winehouse is set to return to the UK. The 'Rehab' singer - who has been living in St. Lucia since late last year - has annoyed lots of locals during her time on the Caribbean island with her wild behaviour and now feels the time is right to go home. A source said: "She's generally looked upon as bad news out there. Her bizarre antics, which at first seemed rather charming, are rubbing people up the wrong way. "She has been flirting with all the beach sellers, saying that she needs a man, and this sort of behaviour is not appreciated among locals."

Amy Winehouse has sparked a new row with her record label after deciding to end her St Lucia holiday, a report claims.

Lily Allen: 'I was polite in Perry feud'

11 July 2009 3:16 AM, PDT | From Digitalspy | See recent digitalspy news

Lily Allen has insisted that she was "polite" to Katy Perry during their public war of words. The 24-year-old singer started feuding with Perry in December after hearing that she had described herself as a "fatter version of Amy Winehouse and the skinnier version of Lily Allen". Hitting back at her rival at the time, Allen branded Perry "crass" and pointed out that she does not write her own songs. Reflecting on the spat in a new interview with the Daily Record, Lily insisted: "That's not slagging her off. I just said I was a bit frosty with her, because she'd slagged me. "Slagging off is saying: 'You're s***'. She compared herself to me and Amy Winehouse and I just politely said that's quite an interesting comparison to make - you're not English, and you don't (more)

Michael Jackson's public memorial service showcased musicians of all ages, from Mj's older brother Jermaine to Jennifer Hudson and Usher. But the youngest of the entire event was 12-year-old Shaheen Jafargholi, performing a cover of the Jackson 5's "Who's Lovin' You."

While Jafargholi is not well known in America, he rocketed to fame in the U.K. earlier this year when he competed on "Britain's Got Talent" shortly after Susan Boyle made headlines with her performance on the show. During his first audition, he sang Amy Winehouse's "Valerie" but was quickly cut off by judge Simon Cowell, who dismissed the song choice. Jafargholi then jumped into "Who's Lovin' You,

Mariah Carey, Fall Out Boy, More Score Hits With Michael Jackson Covers

Artists from Alien Ant Farm to Amy Winehouse have had success with their versions of Mj's classics.

By James Montgomery

Mariah Carey performs "I'll Be There"

Michael Jackson was the consummate entertainer; a groundbreaking dancer and showman, and that's saying nothing about his songbook, which ranks right up there with the tunes of Elvis and the Beatles (which he also once owned). From his early days with the Jackson 5 to his transcendent solo career, Jackson worked with the best in the business — Quincy Jones, Berry Gordy, Paul McCartney, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, Teddy Riley, Glen Ballard, Rod Temperton, to name just a few — and the end result was a veritable treasure trove of totally classic tunes.

Over the course of his career, Jackson scored 13 #1 singles — more than any other male artist of the past 50 years. His musical output was so great that a whole new generation of artists
