A friend says: "The threats� usually come by e-mail or by regular mail
and are explicit, referring to killing the children and Vicky and exactly
how they plan on killing them. It's disgusting and terrifying. These people
know where they live and how to get hold of them."[see full story for more]-

Live DVD |
Kayos reports: On October 31, Eagle Rock Entertainment,
through its wholly-owned Eagle Vision subsidiary, will release The Complete
Live Performances by the late hiphop icon Tupac Shakur, the best-selling
rapper of all time.
This two-disc set consists of his 1996
House Of Blues concert wherein he created musical and cultural shock waves
in and around Los Angeles. Later that year, on the day he was released
from prison, his Las Vegas concert at Club 662, proved to be his last hurrah,
as he would be murdered in that town shortly thereafter. Never before released,
the show is an action-packed set of state-of-the-art hiphop, R'n'B and
all-out funk.- Click

Madonna |
E! reports: After a week of increasingly implausible
denials and "no comments" from Team Madonna, a Malawi high court judge
has managed to do what the Material One would not: confirm that the singer
and husband Guy Ritchie have adopted a one-year-old boy.
The Ritchies were granted custody of David
Banda Thursday, after filing adoption papers at a local courthouse. "Madonna
and the husband"--nice--"filed their papers for an interim order this morning
at Lilongwe High Court, and the judge gave the ruling at 2 p.m. this afternoon,"
deputy registrar Thomson Ligowe told Reuters. [see full story for more]-

Charlotte Stalker |
TMZ reports: Hilary Duff claims in court documents
that she fears for her life, alleging she and her boyfriend are being stalked
by two men -- one a paparazzi and the other a homeless man. TMZ has obtained
court documents, filed today in Los Angeles Superior Court, in which Duff
and Good Charlotte frontman Joel Madden claim that a 19-year-old Russian
emigre came to the United States "for the sole purpose of meeting and becoming
romantically involved with Ms. Duff." The court documents state the man,
whose first name is Max, "admitted to being 'obsessed' with her, has stated
his intention of 'removing' his 'enemies' (i.e., those who prevent him
from being with her), has stated his intention of purchasing a weapon,
and has threatened to kill himself and to engage in dramatic actions to
get her attention."
According to the documents, Max "has stated
his belief that Hilary is in love with him and that Joel Madden stands
in their way."[see full story for more]- Click

SMN reports: INCUBUS' return to active duty
will include a return to theaters in early 2007. Guitarist Mike Einzinger
tells Billboard.com that the California quintet -- whose sixth album, "Light
Grenades," comes out Nov. 28 via Epic -- is excited about returning to
smaller venues with a North American tour that will begin in January, most
likely in Vancouver.
"We haven't played theaters in a very,
very long time," Einzinger says, "and we just decided it was a really good
time in our career to kind of just step back. We were playing in these
massive arenas for, like, the last five years, and it was fun, but it just
seems like it needs to be small again, and special for us."[see full story
