| Ringo Starr has asked fans for help - only days after saying he will no longer sign autographs. The former Beatles drummer has issued an appeal on his website asking the public to select the best photograph taken from the audience during his recent tour. The winning entrant will win a signed Ringo Starr drumhead. The competition closes on October 30, 10 days after the deadline Ringo has set to stop signing memorabilia. | |
| Ringo Starr has told fans not to send him any more letters because he has "too much to do." The former Beatle has warned admirers he will throw away anything sent to him after next Monday. He said in a video clip on his website: "This is a serious message to everyone watching my update. Peace and love. Peace and love." | |
| Sir Paul McCartney has urged people to boycott McDonald's. The vegetarian singer is furious the fast food giant are displaying his picture - along with his former Beatles bandmates Ringo Starr and the late John Lennon and George Harrison - at one of their outlets in his home city of Liverpool to attract more customers. The musician's spokesperson said: "What sort of morons do McDonald's think Beatles fans are?" | |
| Sir Paul McCartney says George Harrison was like his "baby brother." The 66-year-old music legend enjoyed such a close relationship with George, who died in 2001, he saw him as family. Paul, who first met George in 1954, said: "He was my little baby brother, almost, because I'd known him that long." | |
| Oasis have stolen Robbie Williams' drummer. The band's previous percussionist Zak Starkey - son of former Beatle Ringo Starr - reportedly quit this week, but Oasis have wasted no time in finding a replacement in Chris Sharrock. Liam and Noel Gallagher's decision to hire Chris, who has allegedly fallen out with the 'Angels' singer over his decision to take a break from music, is sure to anger Robbie who they have a bitter rivalry with. | |
| Yoko Ono and Stella McCartney kissed and embraced each other at the funeral of 'fifth Beatle' Neil Aspinall Monday. Yoko, widow of John Lennon, and fashion designer Stella, whose father is Sir Paul McCartney, warmly greeted each other before the service at London's St. Mary-the-Virgin Church, in Twickenham. | |
