George Michael cancels tour over anxiety
George Michael cancelled his Australian tour yesterday, revealing that he was battling "major anxiety" after a bout with pneumonia. He said he was heartbroken to cancel the Australian leg of his current Symphonica tour, which was postponed last year due to his pneumonia and was scheduled to kick off in Perth on November 10. "Since last year's illness I have tried in vain to work my way through the trauma," Michael said in a statement. "I had believed wrongly that making music and getting out there to perform for the audiences would be therapy enough in itself." * AFP
Kings of Leon bassist marries
Another celebrity wedding: the Kings of Leon bassist Jared Followill and model Martha Patterson married on Saturday in Nashville. Followill's band mates - his older brothers Nathan and Caleb and his cousin Matthew - have already started families. Followill, 25, and Patterson, 21, were engaged last spring. Patterson wore a dress by Monique Lhuillier and Followill wore a black Gucci suit. Followill quipped on Twitter earlier Saturday that he's "dreamed about this day since I was a little girl". * AP
Flowers takes lessons for new album
The Killers frontman Brandon Flowers thought it was a good idea to take voice lessons before recording the band's new album. "It seemed like the right thing to do," he said. "I wanted to be better. We fine-tuned a few things." His voice is all over Battle Born, the band's fourth album that came out on September 17. But Flowers insists his maturity as a vocalist hasn't affected the core sound of the band. "We try to take a little bit of Las Vegas with us everywhere we go," he said of the group, which kicks off a world tour on October 26 in Glasgow. * AP
Madonna calls Lady Gaga to collaborate
Madonna's manager has contacted Lady Gaga for a possible musical collaboration. Vincent Herbert, Gaga's producer, told the Daily Mirror: "Madonna's manager reached out to us and said Madonna would like Gaga to perform with her in a show in Yankee Stadium." Gaga declined the invite since she's currently on a world concert tour. "She really wished she could do it. But Gaga's committed to her own tour," said Herbert.

Some of Darwish's last words
"They see their tomorrows slipping out of their reach. And though it seems to them that everything outside this reality is heaven, yet they do not want to go to that heaven. They stay, because they are afflicted with hope." - Mahmoud Darwish, to attendees of the Palestine Festival of Literature, 2008
His life in brief: Born in a village near Galilee, he lived in exile for most of his life and started writing poetry after high school. He was arrested several times by Israel for what were deemed to be inciteful poems. Most of his work focused on the love and yearning for his homeland, and he was regarded the Palestinian poet of resistance. Over the course of his life, he published more than 30 poetry collections and books of prose, with his work translated into more than 20 languages. Many of his poems were set to music by Arab composers, most significantly Marcel Khalife. Darwish died on August 9, 2008 after undergoing heart surgery in the United States. He was later buried in Ramallah where a shrine was erected in his honour.

Going grey? A stylist's advice
If you’re going to go grey, a great style, well-cared for hair (in a sleek, classy style, like a bob), and a young spirit and attitude go a long way, says Maria Dowling, founder of the Maria Dowling Salon in Dubai.
It’s easier to go grey from a lighter colour, so you may want to do that first. And this is the time to try a shorter style, she advises. Then a stylist can introduce highlights, start lightening up the roots, and let it fade out. Once it’s entirely grey, a purple shampoo will prevent yellowing.
“Get professional help – there’s no other way to go around it,” she says. “And don’t just let it grow out because that looks really bad. Put effort into it: properly condition, straighten, get regular trims, make sure it’s glossy.”
Sole survivors

- Bahia Bakari, then 12, survived when a Yemenia Airways flight crashed near the Comoros in 2009, killing 152. She was found clinging to wreckage after floating in the ocean for 13 hours.
