Paul McCartney Sets All-Time Attendance Record at Fenway


Former Beatle Paul McCartney played two shows on August 5 & 6 in Boston, and set the record for highest two-day attendance for any concert in the history of Fenway park. Not only that, but live Nation Boston's Dave Marsden commented, "No one in history has ever had 33 hits in one night at Fenway Park" - regarding McCartney's set list, which featured Beatles, Wings, and solo hits. His earlier shows at New York's Citi Field and DC's Fed Ex Field have also received rave reviews.

McCartney has three more dates for his summer 2009 U.S tour, including an August 15 show in Atlanta, one in Tulsa on August 17 (which sold out instantly), and a finale in Dallas on August 19. Due to overwhelming demand, Live Nation and AEG Live have announced that they will release additional seats for the August 19 concert. The Dallas show is not only the conclusion of the tour, but is also McCartney's first appearance in the city since 2005.

Jacko Hopes To Kiss & Make-Up With Paul McCartney!


Could this celebrity feud be over and done with? Michael Jackson hopes to bury his 24-year feud with Sir Paul McCartney – by leaving his share of the Beatles back catalogue to him in his will.

Sir Paul was furious when Jacko outbid him in 1985 to win ownership of the £350million publishing rights to the whole Lennon-McCartney songbook.
The stars, once good pals who collaborated on early 80s hits The Girl is Mine and Say, Say, Say have not spoken since. Jacko has apparently written in his will that all the ownership rights are to go back to McCartney! Hmm, how do you think Jackson would feel if McCartney did that to him?

OMG! Heather Mills has blown £10m in 7 months



Former model goes on spending spree after divorce from Sir Paul McCartney

Heather Mills has apparently got through almost half of her £24.3 million divorce settlement already. 



The former model was awarded the huge payout from ex-husband Sir Paul McCartney in March.



It is thought she’s used up most of the £10 million she's spent since then on property.


In July Heather, 40, bought a £2.5 million New York flat and she's invested nearly £6 million in other homes. 



She has also spent £1 million on renovations to her estate in Robertsbridge, Sussex, where she lives with daughter Beatrice, 4. 

The rest has reportedly been eaten up by holidays, staffing costs and a healthy-eating project in the Bronx, New York, to which Heather donated £500,000.



‘Heather’s been moaning her money isn’t going as far as she thought, but she’s just burning her way through it,’ a source tells The Sun.

‘She reckons she has spent £10 million since the divorce and still doesn’t have a finished house to live in. She hasn’t changed. In her eyes the whole world is against her.’



Meanwhile, Sir Paul, 66, is said to have asked daughter Stella, 37, to update his image.



‘All of Stella and Kate Moss's friends rib Sir Paul about his fashion sense,’ a source tells the Daily Mirror.

The “Fifth Beatle” Passed Away

The remaining members of the Beatles issued the following statement:
“As a loyal friend, confidant and chief executive, Neil’s trusting stewardship and guidance has left a far-reaching legacy for generations to come.”
