Liam Gallagher has married his long-term partner Nicole Appleton. The pair tied the knot in London yesterday morning.
Yoko Ono has denied she is suing Lennon Murphy for using the name of her late husband. Parlophone, Ono's record label, says that Murphy had asked Yoko several years ago for permission to use the name. However, it seems Ono has tried to stop the singer from obtaining exclusive rights to the Lennon name (for performance purposes). Yoko has released the following statement: "I am really hurt if people thought that I told a young artist to not use her own name in her performances and had sought to sue her. I did no such thing. I hope this allegation will be cleared."

Hi Mojo,
Is this news about the Bjork tour? I've a feeling those dates have been out for quite a while now and are probably sold out, or are these brand new dates?
Cheers,
Chris
