Posted in: Music
Sheryl Crow opened a breast cancer center yesterday (Tuesday, August 24th) in Los Angeles as part of a joint venture with the Pink Lotus Breast Cancer center. The new facility, called the Sheryl Crow Imaging Center, features state-of-the-art digital screening and diagnostic technologies for the prevention, detection and treatment of breast cancer.
Crow battled her own case of breast cancer in 2006 after finding being diagnosed during a routine mammogram. She now wants to encourage other women to get screened, saying, “Detecting breast cancer early is a woman’s best chance at survival, and digital full-field mammography is the gold standard of early detection.”



Well it seems like a done deal — Steven Tyler will be among the judges for season 10 of Fox’s American Idol. Despite no official announcement from either Fox or Tyler’s management, Aerosmith bassist Tom Hamilton confirmed the long-rumored deal, telling The New Jersey Star-Ledger, “Steven is doing American Idol. The ink is dry on that. So, we’ll have to work around his schedule for a new record.”


f NBA Finals last week, she faced some criticism for her performance. Now John Mayer has taken to his blog to defend Baker, explaining, “I feel badly that Anita Baker is taking flak for her performance of the Star Spangled Banner at game 4 of the NBA Finals. That song is technically one of the most difficult songs to do justice to, and it’s almost always performed in high-anxiety situations. I know Francis Scott Key is known as the song’s composer but I have reason to believe it was actually written by an evil Texas Instruments graphing calculator.”
Taylor Swift has a new iPhone application coming out this month that features its own form of karaoke. The app, called “Mix Me In2,” lets you sing along with her band to the songs “Love Story” and “You Belong With Me.” Simply put — you can mute her vocals and record your own on top of the full band. You can also remove or change instruments. More Swift songs will be released after the app debuts on June 20th. After recording your versions, there will be an option for you to upload them directly to Swift’s website.
Sheryl Crow is expanding her family — she’s adopting another boy. The 48-year-old singer announced the news on her website, revealing, “I have some exciting news to share with you guys. Wyatt has a new little brother!” Her son, Levi James, was born April 30th. Crow’s other adopted son, Wyatt, is 3 years old.
