Um . . . got any other suggestions?

Hair rockers Bon Jovi may have to cancel their prospective gigs at the new Wembley Stadium because the venue may not be ready in time.

Bon Jovi had originally scheduled the gigs for June 10 and 11, however Multiplex, the company building the new stadium, have been struggling for some time to get the stadium ready for its planned completion date.

Furthermore, several major sporting events including the FA Cup final have been moved to alternative locations.

Heather Locklear dumped Richie Sambora after she went rooting around in his e-mail and found some "provocative" pictures sent to him by a woman they both know. So says People magazine. Well, actually the mag says Heather "found" the e-mail, but you don't find other people's e-mail by accident, do you? People says this woman had been a "sore subject" between Heather and Sambora, but these pix left Heather "devastated" though not too devastated to call her lawyers. Richie is third-hand-quoted as saying nothing ever happened with this woman and he hadn't asked for the pictures. Gentlemen, ladies, I think each of us can learn from this sad case. Learn different lessons, I suspect, but learn we all can.

With more than 100 million records sold during a two-decade career, it's been proven time and again that the members of Bon Jovi know how to expand their audience.
