George Michael and Geri Halliwell enjoyed a double date with their respective lovers on Monday night.

The Spice Girl and backing dancer Ivan 'Flipz' Velez joined the 'Careless Whisper' singer and his long-term partner Kenny Goss at exclusive London restaurant San Carlo.

Pete Doherty is charging just $200 to perform at private parties.

The Babyshambles rocker agreed to play at a fan's birthday bash for the paltry sum and has now been bombarded with requests to play at other events.

George Michael's boyfriend claims he is not worried about the singer writing a tell-all autobiography. Kenny Goss, who began dating the former Wham! star in 1996, insists he will not be demanding any "red pen" rights after George revealed plans for an explosive tome.

He said: "I'm not asking for anything like that. But it should be an interesting book because George is a very honest person. Anyway, I'm not expecting to read anything I don't already know."

George Michael has signed a deal to write a "no holds barred" autobiography. The 'Fast Love' singer has promised to reveal intimate details about his eventful life - including his homosexuality and U.K. and U.S. arrests - after agreeing a multi-million pound publishing deal with HarperCollins.

Michael's manager Andy Stephens said: "People aren't stupid, they're beginning to notice that the truth is more interesting than the stories the press come up with. George has promised HarperCollins a no-holds-barred biography, and it's certain to be just that."

Victoria Beckham has reportedly banned a host of her celebrity enemies from attending the Spice Girls' reunion concerts.

The 33-year-old singer - who is currently in the middle of the band's 17-date residency at London's O2 arena which is part of their world tour - has compiled a list of stars who are not welcome at the venue as they have upset her in the past.
