Here's the Scoop....
The devastating floods in Nashville have inundated the Grand
Ole Opry House, the most famous country-music venue in the
world, and damaged cherished equipment of country artists
across Music City.
Country star Kellie Picker posted pictures on her twitter,
showing the flooded main hall of the Opry, which sits five
miles northeast of the entertainment district. Many
instruments, costumes, audio tapes and other historic
paraphernalia are feared lost or damaged at the site.
Other facilities are also swamped, including Soundcheck, a
rehearsal space on the Cumberland River where Keith Urban
and many other artists keep their gear. "I've probably lost
all of my road equipment, and all my guitars, and amp and
everything," Keith comments.
The Opry has been moved this week's shows to other venues,
and the Country Music Hall of Fame is closed due to
basement flooding, though its collections reportedly have
not been damaged.

Sandra Bullock to take a break from movies...
Sandra Bullock has confirmed she is planning to take a career
break to focus on raising her adopted son following her split
from husband Jesse James.
Sandra walked out on Jesse in March after his infidelities
were revealed in the press. She has filed for divorce and
is planning to care for the former couple's son Louis, who
was adopted in January, on her own.
Earlier this year, Sandra revealed she had turned down a
number of roles because she wanted to wait until after the
Academy Awards ceremony in March to make any plans.
Now she has confirmed she won't be making any movies for the
foreseeable future.
In an interview, she says, "All I know is that I want to be
able to enjoy being a mom. Doing all the things moms get to
do, outside in the sun, in the world. The career will have
to wait for a bit. I don't want to step into that world
until I can find out what room I left my armor in. You need
tough skin to be in this business. I don't have tough skin
right now and I don't want it."

Lindsay Lohan Lands Racy Movie Role: Linda Lovelace...
Can one troubled movie star have insight into another?
Producers of an upcoming film about the 1970s porn scene hope
so, reportedly signing up Lindsay Lohan to play famed adult
star Linda Lovelace.
"We've all thought that Lindsay would be a great choice for a
while now, and we're all convinced that she is going to do it,"
says Inferno producer Wali Razaqi, who confirmed the casting
choice to the Los Angeles Times. "For at least a year, the
director [Matthew Wilder] and I have gone back and forth
imagining how awesome of a performance she could give if she
was in the movie."
Besides their sharing the same monograms, Razaqi sees broad
thematic parallels between Lindsay and Lovelace (real name:
Linda Susan Boreman), who had drug problems and was famously
ambivalent about her career. She died in 2002.
"Not that Lindsay's life is similar in any way, but she's
been through a lot of ups and downs," says Razaqi. "A lot of
times you're loved and then you're hated, and I think she
can relate to those emotions and feelings. One week she's the
'it' girl, and the next, she's the 'What are you doing?' girl."

Jude Law and Sienna Miller go public with their romance...
Jude Law showed the world he has rekindled his romance with
Sienna Miller by stepping onto the red carpet with his former
fiancee on Monday.
The couple was spotted arm-in-arm at the Metropolitan Museum
of Art's Costume Institute Gala in New York City, marking
their first official public outing together since reuniting
last year.
They stopped to pose for photographs together, smiling and
wrapping their arms around one another.

The couple sparked speculation of a reconciliation when they
were spotted partying in the Big Apple last year, before
celebrating their birthdays in Barbados together.

Bret Michaels leaves hospital...
Poison star Bret Michaels has been discharged from the Arizona
hospital where he was hospitalized after suffering a brain
hemorrhage last month.
Bret was admitted to the intensive care unit of St. Joseph's
Hospital in Phoenix after suffering bleeding on the brain.
Doctors later discovered Bret suffered a life-threatening
side-effect of the condition called hyponatremia. A lack of
sodium in the body that can lead to seizures.
Dr. Joseph Zabramski held a press conference on Tuesday to
address Bret's condition, revealing he is in stable condition
and is expected to make a full recovery.
He added: "He's improving and I expect him to continue to
improve. I really expect that he will fortunately make a 100
per cent recovery. He's just one of those lucky people, 10
to 20 per cent, who make a complete recovery and can resume
all of their normal activities."
Zabramski did not release details of when Bret left the
hospital due to federal privacy laws.

says of her bandmates. "We're like family. I'm excited
about working with the Wilson sisters again."
The new album, due in October on Sony Masterworks, will

original songs. Wilson Phillips also kicks off its

These rockers are taking credit for Lady Gaga's outrageous style,
branding the hitmaker a "female version" of their band...
It's Kiss...
The "Detroit Rock City" hitmakers admit they'd love to enlist
Gaga as the fifth member of the group, insisting they inspired
the 24-year-old's flamboyant persona and stage costumes.
Gene Simmons comments, "She's not Lady Gaga, she's really Lady
Kiss. I love the vibe, the big mouth and the big visuals. She's
the most exciting thing to happen since us. She's a female
version of us.
"One of the first things we learned was to treat the audience
as the guv'nor (boss). When they buy a ticket they become your
boss. We just work here. She realizes that her fans deserve
the best you got because they pay your wages."
