Ex Says Nate Dogg's a Roadside Terrorist

TMZ has learned hip-hop artist Nate Dogg was arrested around 8:30 AM PT this morning while driving on the 405 in L.A.

Cops tell us Nate's estranged wife called into 911 freaking out as she was driving, claiming Nate was making death threats against her and "dangerously" following her as she drove down the road. The CHP stopped them both, and after interviewing both parties, arrested him for making terrorist threats and driving on a suspended license.

The singer, whose real name is Nathaniel Hale, is currently in the process of being booked into the medical ward of the Twin Towers jail in downtown L.A. He suffered a debilitating stroke last December.

Billy Ray Cyrus Defends Miley 'Nude' Vanity Fair Shoot

Billy Ray Cyrus has defended his daughter Miley’s controversial ‘nude’ Vanity Fair magazine shoot, but in turn has stirred up more reaction for the portrayal of his own provocative snap with the teen star.

The Hannah Montana star hit headlines at the beginning of May when photos of her wrapped in a satin bedsheet sparked outrage from family groups and concerned parents, prompting the 15-year-old to apologise for the snapshots.

But country star Cyrus was quick to defend his young daughter and the shoot's famed photographer Annie Leibovitz from the harsh criticism that ensued during an appearance on NBC's The Today Show.

He explains: "I flew in because Annie (Leibovitz) had specifically asked that I would come in and do a shot with Miley. I had worked with her before and she's a great lady. She's just a good person and a great photographer...

"I did my picture with Miley and then I headed on up to Washington state to play for the troops. I wasn't there at the time, so I was surprised when I saw it... If I could've stayed, I would've.

"Her publicist was there and everybody seemed in control. I didn't think they were going to strip her down and wrap her in a blanket."

But Cyrus adds he has no regrets despite his initial shock, insisting instead his reflection on his own musical career helped him to give his young daughter perspective.

He says: "Me and Miley went for a little walk a few days later... and I told her it's just one of those things you've got to kind of stand back, let it run its course."

When asked of his own controversial photo with Miley - criticised for appearing to portray the father/daughter duo as lovers - he adds: "It's not a mistake to me. If it is to someone else, I'm sorry if I offended somebody, but that's just a daddy that loves his daughter a whole lot.

“I'm her daddy, she's my daughter so if a daddy hasn't hugged his daughter recently, I recommend he does."

Yatha Sidhra, from Freiberg,Germany, near both the Swiss and French borders, was a fugacious group that only when lasted retentive enough to record unitary piece of music. That one piece of music of music was the 40-minute "A Meditation Mass" which stretched over deuce sides of the LP of the same appoint released in 1973 by the fabled Brain label and considered one of the classics of cosmic Krautrock.


Yatha Sidhra's roots go game to the mid-'60s, when deuce brothers, multi-instrumentalist Rolf and drummer Klaus Fichter began playing in assorted groups together, starting with a mortal mathematical group called Lea Gamble that consisted of them and 2 American ex-service men. By the early seventies the Fichter's were teamed with French bassist Jean-Michel Boivert and flutist Peter Elbracht in a surd rock isthmus called Brontosaurus, which because of the flute sounded a bit like Jethro Tull. In early 1973, Rolf Fichter started work on a lengthy modern work, "A Meditation Mass," and presently began to perform it live with Brontosaurus. At one gig Achim Reichel, a key design in German rock music, was awestruck enough by the piece that he befriended the lot. Reichel managed to catch them a narrow with Brain Records to record the slice, under the consideration that they change their refer to something more than conquer for "A Meditation Mass," which did not sound at all like Brontosaurus's other corporeal, as the piece was far more hypnotic and moony. The diagnose Yatha Sidhra was chosen because it had a mystic good to it.


By the time the album was recorded later that year, guitarist and bassist Matthias Nicolar had replaced Boivert. Reichel produced the album, and on it Rolf Fichter played Moog, flute, vibraphone, electric piano, guitar and vocals. Brain released the album in 1974 with a die-cut foldout breed with the album's title in cut off stencil. The group presumably only existed to make the one recording, and non very much thirster than that. Rolf and Klaus Fichter finally re-emerged as the duo Dreamworld and released a couple of records in the early eighties of quite conventional ELP-styled synth-prog with none of A Meditation Mass's magic trick and mystique.

Edith Bowman reveals pregnancy danger

Pregnant DJ Edith Bowman has revealed that giving birth could put her life at risk, because she is suffering from a serious heart defect.
The 33-year-old star, who is five months pregnant with her first baby, told the Evening Standard that she has a bicuspid aortic valve, which increases her chances of dying in childbirth.
The DJ said that she will require a Caesarean section and that doctors must monitor her closely throughout her pregnancy.
Bowman said: "We get to find out the baby's sex later this month but I'm like, 'there are really more important things to worry about right now than the colour of baby clothes'."
"Basically I need these extra scans early in the pregnancy and I'll have to have a Caesarean because no-one - including my heart specialist - sees the point in putting my heart through unnecessary stress."
Bowman was diagnosed with the condition in summer 2004 after suffering palpitations and tiredness while working at the Glastonbury Festival.
She said: "It was shocking, obviously. But once you get your head around it, you realise there's nothing you can do except try and get on with life."
"I was told that the greatest risk is deterioration and that I may need a valve transplant later on, which is scary. But for now, it seems fine."
