Rich Rockers Hit By Economic Woes
Thursday, April 23rd, 2009
Some of Britain’s wealthiest music makers aren’t as rich as they used to be.
Reuters reports Paul McCartney, Elton John and Mick Jagger are among the celebs who’ve seen their personal fortunes shrink in the last year. A survey in the London Sunday Times claims Elton John’s personal wealth has been cut by more than a quarter to 175 million pounds from 235 million pounds ($342.3 million), mostly due to erosion of investments and large donations to charity.
Paul McCartney saw his fortune decline 12 percent, while Mick Jagger’s dropped 16 percent. Yeah, they’re all still rich, but it just proves the recession affects all of us.

Heather Mills Should Talk More
Friday, April 11th, 2008
You gotta’ hand it to her, she loves the sound of her voice. Heather Mills recently went on Britain’s GMTV and talked about her ex (shocker) and other tidbits. I guess $50 million won’t keep her mouth shut after all. Heather mocked ex-hubby Paul McCartney by giving his rumored three girlfirends well wishes. “I wish all the girls the best of luck. Better them than me,” she stated. Meow. She also wasn’t too sorry about dousing Fiona Shackleton, Paul’s attorney, with a cup of water in court. Heather joked that she baptized Fiona and actually improved her hairstyle. Double meow. I really do hope Heather comes out of her shell soon. That woman is just way too shy.

New Honey For Sir Paul?
Saturday, March 29th, 2008
Paul McCartney finally settled his divorce from Heather Mills earlier this month and he’s moving on. Huffingtonpost.com is reporting that Sir Paul is currently vacationing with Nancy Shevell, an old friend, in the Caribbean. Shevell is a New Yorker whom the McCartneys (Paul and Linda) were friend with. The pair was first photographed kissing last November at the East Hamptons, where both have homes. I think Paul McCartney’s gone through enough with Heather Mills and it’s nice that he’s dating again. His first wife, Linda, died from cancer and he has said in numerous interviews that she was the love of his life. He went through hell with Heather and their divorce, so it’s nice he’s found a lady friend. Good times.

Heather Gets Her Settlement
Monday, March 17th, 2008
Wow, it’s finally over. This was definitely a long and drawn out divorce, but it finally reached its end. Heather Mills and Paul McCartney have finally settled on an agreement, worth about $50 million for Heather. Paul will also be paying for their daughter Beatrice’s school and nanny fees. Many, especially in England, are not very fond of Heather and feel that she was asking for way too much money from Sir Paul. After today’s settlement, she announced in front of the High Court in London to reporters that she’s very happy with the settlement and she’s just glad it’s all over. I’m sure Paul McCartney feels the same.

Bitter Battle With Heather & Sir Paul
Friday, February 15th, 2008
The divorce hearing for Heather Mills and Paul McCartney is heating up. Heather lashed out about her ex-husband outside court today for ignoring a fan’s request for an autograph. Heather is representing herself in the proceedings, which some believe is the reason the hearing is taking longer than expected. The couple married in 2002 and have a daughter, Beatrice. They announced their split in 2006. Heather has said that once the divorce proceedings are over, she will leave the United Kingdom and settle somewhere else, since she knows how hated she is in England. It has been reported that Heather wants a lot more money than Sir Paul is willing to settle for. He is said to be worth over $1 billion and she is requesting at least $200 million and some property. They will return to court next week.
