Doctor who performed surgery on Kanye West’s mother gives up medical licence
Posted in Music on the April 20, 2009
The doctor who performed surgery on Kanye West’s mother the day before she died has given up his medical licence.
Dr Jan Adams operated on Donda West on November 9, 2007, performing multiple procedures including a tummy tuck and breast reduction. She died the next day.
Donda’s autopsy concluded there was no evidence that the surgery was botched. The report stated that the 58-year-old died of heart failure, and added: "Multiple post-operative factors could have played a role."
Although Adams has always denied any wrongdoing, the Medical Board of California sought to revoke or suspend his license because of multiple alcohol-related convictions.
"A series of complaints were filed against Mr Adams, but he chose to surrender his license instead of contest them," Medical Board spokeswoman Candis Cohen said.

Britney Spears heading back to court?
Posted in Music on the April 20, 2009
Britney Spears may be heading back to court, if a Los Angeles lawyer gets his way.
A lawyer who claims to have been hired by the pop princess to overturn her conservatorship is demanding the star appear in court – where he is fighting a restraining order obtained by Spears’s dad Jamie.
The restraining order was issued against Jon Eardley Esq on January 30 along with orders against Britney’s former manager Sam Lutfi and her former paparazzi boyfriend Adnan Ghalib.
Eardley is challenging the order and has requested Britney face him in court.
In the court documents, Eardley states: "If Britney Spears is well enough to put on two concerts in Los Angeles, she is certainly well enough to attend a trial where attorneys on her behalf have falsely accused Jon Eardley of harassment and elder abuse."

Justin Timberlake wooing Amy Winehouse to join him in a duet, say reports
Posted in Music on the April 20, 2009
Justin Timberlake wants Amy Winehouse to say Yes Yes Yes to a duet, according to reports.
Trousersnake has reportedly even offered to fly to the Caribbean island of Saint Lucia, where the star is on holiday, to seal a deal on the collaboration.
The reports say Timberlake has offered to fit in with Winehouse’s notoriously erratic schedule and work in the studio of her choice.
An insider said: "Amy gets thousands of offers a week from other artists. Justin Timberlake is one she is considering.
“But Amy will only do it if the other person’s music fits the mood she is in at the time."
Winehouse has been struggling to find a direction for her eagerly anticipated third album.
She has reportedly already scrapped a duet with Snoop Dogg and turned down a collaboration with Eminem as she makes plans for her new disc.
It is also believed the star has clashed with her record label after agreeing to team up with the virtual band Gorillaz for a separate project.
