There has been confusion in the media and amongst Australian Timbaland fans as to whether his now erst postponed Australian Tour is in fact still going ahead.
GenQ contacted their Timbaland tour example, Petrina Convey of Xposed Media for a financial statement to aid clarify the issue. Of the electric potential cancellation of the tour, Petrina said:
�Universal Music Australia has released a affirmation from Timbaland stating that he is not approach to Australia for shows this month. However, the�promoters have heard nothing to support this or to state otherwise. Until the promoters receive further information from Timbaland himself, I am�afraid I cannot reassert either way.�

Third time happy
Elemeno P are a band for all audiences - even those covered in Marmite. Frontman Dave Gibson talks to Laura McQuillan about the group's new album
Elemeno P spent the last half of 2007 in hiding, recording their third album in a self-built home studio.Singer Dave Gibson says the band's music-making process was completely different this time around, and believes the new record is their best so far."Our previous two records, we had a producer. This record was self-produced. Our previous two records we did in full-on professional recording studios. This one we built a home studio."So we had no timeframe, no financial restraints. "We could just be ourselves."He says the band went into the studio with no songs, preferring to record them as they were written to capture "what it's like when you're first excited about something. We wanted to capture a more organic, live sounding exciting thing, which I think we did."The record is one of New Zealand Music Month's biggest releases - a mature step-up from their previous albums, with the first single, Baby Come On, one of their catchiest to date.
Says Gibson: "It's our third album and I felt like we were in a place where we had nothing to prove. I didn't feel we had to write songs that fit into any specific thing or `Elemeno P should sound like this' and `this is what our fans expect'. We just had an attitude like `let's just write songs we wanna write and songs that we're happy with"'.Gibson says a song like Baby Come On would probably have been considered too happy or upbeat to have been included on the previous album."We are what we are and we didn't feel that we had anything to prove so songs like those end up being on the record."Gibson says Elemeno P's fanbase is diverse and includes everyone from schoolchildren to the middle-aged. "There are certain bands that will have a gang as their fanbase, like Blindspott with West Aucklanders, but we really are a bit unusual. Our fans tend to be pretty cool, pretty well grounded."While he's yet to have a run-in with a crazy fan, there have been many crotch-grabbing incidents - and one stagedive which left him covered in Marmite."[The crotch-grabbing] has happened quite a bit to be honest. It's unusual, I find it quite weird, I don't know what enjoyment a young lady would get out of it. But all kinds of weird things happen when you get out into the crowd."I stagedived one time into a crowd, right on top of two dudes covered completely in Marmite and I was wearing all white, I was wearing white jacket, white pants, white T-shirt."It was like, what are the chances? I'm wearing white, I jump into the crowd randomly and hit two guys covered in Marmite."Despite their standing as one of New Zealand's most popular and well-recognised bands, Gibson says each member has a day job - all creative.

Rhys Ifans - Ifans Denies Summer Wedding To Miller
Welsh actor RHYS IFANS has denied rumours he is set to marry his fiancee SIENNA MILLER in a summer ceremony this year (08).
The couple was reportedly preparing to wed in August (08) - a year after Miller rejected his first proposal, when the Notting Hill star asked for her hand in marriage by sending her a cryptic message in Welsh, which read: "Marry The Misfit".
The Factory Girl star said no for the second time when Ifans asked again at her 26th birthday party in December (07) - but she finally agreed to marry him on his third attempt in March (08).
Reports have since been rife that the couple is planning a low-key celebration in the coming months, but Notting Hill actor Ifans has dismissed the claims.
He tells Britain's Closer magazine, "I'm not marrying Sienna this summer. I'm taking a break at the moment and just want to chill out."
And, despite recent speculation of a split, Miller insists they are happier than ever: "I am in love - Rhys and I are the best of mates and life is going great."
