After remembering U2 is losing their cultural relevance faster than ever, Bono quickly apologized for a jab he made at Coldplay vocalist Chris Martin on BBC Radio!

Bono was on the Beeb's Radio 1 promoting U2's new shiteous album when he let his true feelings fly about Mr. GOOP himself!

"I think he's that good a melodist, but he's a wanker… He's obviously a completely dysfunctional character and a cretin," said Bono on the BBC early Friday morning.

Meow!

We think Bono's a little cranky over people calling Coldplay "The New U2"!!!

Not ready to give up the "Greatest Band On Earth" title just quite yet???

The U2 frontman quickly backtracked, telling the radio show host, "I think they [Coldplay] are a great band and actually, it turns out he’s a great soul as well. Sorry about that. I was just joking entirely."

Hmm.. we're not too sure if we believe you!!

Simon Cowell was pulled over by police in Los Angeles on Friday for two different violations. Failure to display a front license plate and for not wearing a seatbelt!!

How stupid!

The American Idol judge laughed off the incident, but not wearing a seatbelt is just ridiculous!!

Luckily for him, he was able to sweet talk his way out of a ticket!

Oh, Pivert.

You'll never live this one down, will you??

Speed the Plow producers are now filing for arbitration to settle the "mercury poisoning" incident which caused Jeremy Piven to quit the play with little to no notice back in December.

Piven is now claiming his mercury poisoning was not from sushi, rather it was an "illness stemmed from eating fish twice a week for 20 years."

O rly???

Is that the story now?

After Thursday's hearing in which the Actors' Equity union was unable to reach a unanimous decision, they have decided to bring in a professional arbitrator to decide the legitimacy of the Entourage star's quick exit from Speed the Plow.

"The grievance went as expected yesterday. The grievance committee (made up of League and Equity representatives) did not rule for either side and we will be filing for arbitration as provided by our contract," the producers said in a statement released yesterday.

We think the Pivert's time might finally be up!!

Apple is planning on introducing a new feature to the iTunes music store - the iTunes Season Pass!

iTunes Pass will work similarly to the Season Pass feature in the television section of iTunes. Consumers will pay a flat price for a specific artist of their choosing and new releases, videos and other extras from the artist will be delivered to consumers over a designated period of time.

Depeche Mode will be the first group to use the iTunes Pass feature, "offering two exclusive singles to fans who sign up for the $19 bundle, which includes a pre-order for the album. The new album, Sounds of the Universe, will automatically appear in fans' iTunes library when it comes out on April 21, as will a number of other new music and video titles."

Sounds promising!

The new iTunes feature was created in hopes to improve full digital album sales vs. the more popular, yet less profitable digital single sales.

Other than Depeche Mode, two or three unnamed artists are planning in participating in the iTunes Pass program.

Wonder who!

Who would U like to see as an iTunes Pass artist or group???

Madonna!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We've just gotten our hands on some private emails - oops! - between the Pussycat Dolls and the head of their record label, Jimmy Iovine. We've confirmed their authenticity, and it's juicy!

Basically, the Dolls want to take their backup dancers on the road with them when they open for Britney Spears on her upcoming Circus tour. Unfortunately for them, Iovine gives the girls a harsh lesson in reality and economics.

Doll Kimberly pleads with the Interscope honcho, saying:

"We strongly agree that the male dancers are an asset to the show and should be kept for the britney tour."

Iovine responds with:

"We can't afford it. I'm sorry its hard enough right now with the album not selling that's why we did jai ho and re releasing the album. And we want to be able to keep the whole thing going at this level its not a choice its a reality."

Sucks for the Pussy!

Sources also tell us that all is not well between the Dolls and their record label AND between the girls and lead singer Nicole.

Meow!

Update: Robin Antin, founder of the Pussycat Dolls, just sent us the following message.

"Just got home from Europe….
Was with the Dolls on tour, a SOLD OUT headlining arena tour, so amazing!! Who said the girls r fighting?! NOT TRUE at all!! We all had the best time!
That email below is 5min of a 2 day conversation. Its all good in PCD land, I promise u that!
We r making decisions because everyone has to meet a budget these days. We have sold 4 million singles and 1m albums worldwide but we aren't satisfied yet!
Would u be??? My expectations are sooo HIGH, and always have been, that's why PCD is the biggest POP group/Brand in the world!
And hey, we just did the biggest song EVER, "Jai Ho" from Slum Dog Millionaire!"

Christian Bale's on-set temper tantrums haven't effected The Dark Knight star's career at all.

It's been confirmed that Bale will be reprising his role as Batman for the third time in the upcoming sequel!

The Dark Knight director Chris Nolan will also be returning to the billion-dollar-franchise, but the film is nowhere near being ready for it's 2011 release date!

Why?

There isn't a script and negotiations haven't been made between Warner Bros. and the cast and crew!!!

Insiders have revealed that the laid back and cheerful attitude the studio has projected towards the sequel will change "once checkbooks start opening… Because money talks and once the pens start writing the extra 0's, everything is fair game."

Better get on that, fellas!!

There's always some sort of trouble when it comes to $$$!!!
