Sir Paul McCartney has denied reports he is planning to work with Bob Dylan.
Bob, 68, was said to be keen to work with former Beatles star Sir Paul, 67, by he is claiming it is also rumours.
Talking about working with Bob, Sir Paul said: “No, that’s a newspaper thing. He just said some very complimentary things about me in some interviews, and I love him.
“I think he’s a great poet and writer so I’ve always admired him. I don’t rule it out. But we’re not the kind of people who would ring each other up.”
The legendary singer seems to have damaged his neighbors’ health with nothing other than a portable toilet. Bob Dylan’s neighbor had this to say: “It started in September. I’d go into the front yard and get nauseous. I couldn’t figure out at first where the smell was coming from. Both David and I have allergies and are sensitive to chemicals. I finally noticed that they had moved the porta-potty directly in front of my front door.” Bob Dylan is probably just trying out some sort of new chemical warfare… maybe a new method of NATO peace keeping and if his neighbors are patriots they should not interfere with the affairs of the state.
ROMANCE’S “DESOLATION ROW”
REINTERPRETATION OF THE BOB DYLAN CLASSIC IS FIRST SINGLE FROM UPCOMING SOUNDTRACK TO FEATURE FILM WATCHMEN

Mischa Barton was spotted walking around the Beverly Hills set of her latest film ‘The Homecoming’ on Friday. Someone actually hired her?! The 22-year old former ‘OC’ actress was seen carrying around a Starbucks coffee cup and a book by Sid Griffin called ‘Million Dollar Bash’. The book documents music legend Bob Dylan’s career and his association with famous musical friends ‘The Band’. I never knew that Mischa was a fan of Bob Dylan. Maybe she’s trying to pick up on a few things from the book. Then again, I didn’t even know that Mischa new how to read.
“I’m Not There” is the first movie about Bob Dylan’s life that the singer-songwriter has ever given his blessing, the director said Tuesday at the Venice Film Festival.
Director Todd Haynes thinks its the film’s multifaceted approach to Dylan’s life that won his approval.
“I do think it was because of this open structure, something that we keep expanding through the years,” said Haynes. “And because of that Bob thought, `OK, this may be the one thing I’ll say OK to.’”
Premiering Tuesday, the movie dramatizes Dylan’s changes in personae by having seven actors portray him, including Christian Bale, Cate Blanchett, Richard Gere and Heath Ledger.
Haynes’ first film told the story of singer Karen Carpenter using Barbie dolls; in 1998 he directed “Velvet Goldmine,” which explored the glam-rock movement.
In “I’m Not There,” Blachett plays the role of “Jude,” or Dylan during his folk-rock incarnation. Haynes said he knew a woman had to play the role to reflect Dylan’s physical being in that era.
“Cate was scared. She told me many times this was a very scary challenge for her,” Haynes said. “I told her, `You can’t be totally terrified every time you do a new role, but it’s good to be terrified sometimes. You’re taking risks, you’re putting yourself on a potential arrow, that when you really discover new things, and you rejuvenate.’ And that’s probably why she decided to give it a shot.”
