Vs Paul |
AP reports: Accepting the special trophy at
the Q Awards, Ono said Lennon had sometimes felt insecure about his songs,
asking why "they always cover Paul's songs and never mine."
"I said, `You're a good songwriter, it's

Bra Saga |
antiMusic reports: So you had your heart set
on owning Britney's jeweled bra. You took out a second mortgage on the
house, logged on to eBay, placed your $47,000 bid only to have your hopes
dashed when the pop star withdrew the item from her charity auction.
Britney Spears made headlines last week
when she announced she was launching an online auction to raise money for
Hurricane Katrina victims. The big news was the inclusion of the bra in
the auction. When eBay discovered the item they removed it due to a ban
on selling undergarments on the site, but later reinstated the auction
after the removal made headlines.
Now Britney has pulled the plug on the
bra saying that some people had the idea it was worm on stage as she performed
her hit "Hit Me Baby One More Time". The bra was in fact worn during the
filming of a TV promo video. [see full story for more]-
