Former ABBA member Anni-Frid Reuss has shattered whatever hopes and dreams are left of a possible band reunion. While being inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame with former husband and band mate Benny Andersson, Anni-Frid said “We haven’t performed or sang together for 28 years; we broke up in ‘82. And I never think we will reunite again – it’s a bit too late for that.” Hasn’t the singer ever heard of the saying never say never? However, I’m pretty sure that there are a lot of people thanking ABBA for the music and killing it as well.

Ryan Adams is releasing a heavy metal album on vinyl next week. He talked about the track ‘Electrosnake’ on his website saying, “We’re going to begin pressing ‘Orion’ – my most legit METAL record – on vinyl next week. Have a listen to the song below and let us know if you’d be interested in purchasing one. P.S. Not a single B.C. Rich was hurt in the making of this record.” 70,000 people already expressed interest in buying the album and Ryan is ecstatic about it. The singer said “Unreal, 69,567 people want a copy. That’s too many, but still… It’s so cool getting to figure out what the manufacture numbers are before you go to press. The future, y’all!” What is it with everyone and the sudden shift is music?

The British singer sure seems to be adopting many new things lately. It looks like Amy Winehouse has recently decided to pick up Capoeira, the Brazilian art of dance-fighting in order to help her with her upcoming album. This is what a source related about Amy Winehouse’s new hobby: “Amy loves it because it’s good for strength, toning and great for working up a sweat. It is also helping her focus.” She’s probably imagining that she’s kicking around booze bottles during workouts… an excellent way to focus indeed. If her label forces her to work any harder instead of having fun, Amy Winehouse might just start dance-fighting her way to unemployment.

Boy George and George Michael have been on the outs for about 20 years since the former called the latter out on pretending to be “a straight stud” back in the 80s. George Michael didn’t come out that he was gay until 1998 when he was caught propositioning a cop in the men’s restroom. But Boy George recently revealed that “We have exchanged emails recently and things are pretty good between us.” I’m glad that the two singers have made amends. I wonder if they have any plans on making a duet now. I think they would make some pretty good music.

More of Michael Jackson’s stuff is going up for sale! 22 items of the King of Pop’s furniture will be put on auction on June 28th at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas as a part of Julien’s Auctions Music Icons series as well as the Newbrigde Silverware’s Museum of Style Icon’s in Ireland on May 30th. Some of the pieces up for sale include an $18,000 seashell encrusted bergere and $60,000 red velvet armchairs. Such tacky items but I couldn’t expect anything less from the late singer. Will you be putting up some bids for any of the King of Pop’s stuff?
