American jazz singer and seven-time Grammy winner Al Jarreau is in critical condition after he collapsed on stage during a concert in Barcelonnette in the southeast region of France. Sources say that the musician was suffering from respiratory problems. Sources went on to say that “He was rushed to hospital … his condition is critical. He’s in intensive care. He is still conscious but slightly drowsy because of the medication and the breathing apparatus.” I hope that they’re able to rid him of whatever health problems that he has and that Al has a speedy recovery. I’m pulling for him.

‘The Breakfast Club’ actress Molly Ringwald has just finished the final touches on a brand new jazz album. The new record will actually be the second in her arsenal, the first having been recorded over 36 years ago when she was just 6 years old. Sources say that the actress turned singer completed work on the album hours before she was scheduled to take stage at the Oscars to pay tribute to director and friend John Hughes. Molly said “I’m really excited about it. I haven’t come up with a name yet but it’s with my quintet that I’ve been performing with a lot in the Los Angeles area.” I wonder if she’s any good.

It seems that the troubled singer truly does prefer to work alone as she recently refused the offer to do a duet with Robbie Williams. Amy Winehouse’s father seems to be of the same opinion with his daughter, this is what her related about the proposal: “Actually he said that once… he wanted to do a record with Amy. Amy said, ‘Are you fucking joking.’” Not very nice of Amy Winehouse to go and refuse Robbie Williams like that… she might have to deal with the revenge of some of his more special friends. They would definitely not take very kindly to such insults.

The whole Britney Spears lip synching saga continues with many critics in Australia still bashing the pop singer for her pricey concert tickets to a non live show. Michael Buble came to her defense though. While doing an interview in Australia to promote his latest album ‘Crazy Love’ the Canadian singer revealed “You’d think she killed someone. Okay, she lip-synchs her show, people know that, they make the decision if they want to go and see her do that. Does she deserve the way she’s been completely bashed by the media here? No.” Michael goes on to joke “Mind you, I lip-synch all my concerts. I’m the Milli Vanilli of jazz.”

Thirty two years after his death, jazz legend Duke Ellington’s name was suddenly being used to sell a high end brand of cognac which has made his family all sorts of mad. Duke’s grandson has filed a federal lawsuit in New York, claiming that the people responsible for the liqueur called ‘Duke Ellington XO Cognac’ in 2006 never got the proper permission to use the singer’s name and signature on their product. In the documents, the Ellington estate claims that the people behind the cognac “once attempted to negotiate with [the estate] … but no agreement was ever reached between the parties.” Now, the family wants the company to stop selling the cognac and they also want all the profits that have been earned from previous sales.
