- Amy Winehouse delivered a shaky rendition of “Back to Black” at last night’s MTV Europe Music Awards in Germany, just two days after canceling her appearance at next week’s MTVU awards in New York due to visa trouble. Avril Lavigne won the night’s top prizes and Justice took home the Video Star prize for the second year in a row. Justin Timberlake, who swept the awards last year, went home empty-handed.
- Britney Spears‘ former manager Johnny Wright is suing for commissions he claims the pop star owes him for deals he worked on through 2008, even though the pair ended their professional relationship in 2003. Despite the suit, he tells US Weekly, “I have a great deal of affection and empathy for her.”
- The Elvis is Alive Museum is shutting down unless someone purchases the artifacts Bill Beeny, the eight-one-year-old museum proprietor, is selling on eBay. Beeny has helmed the Missouri attraction that claims the King isn’t dead for seventeen years, but the Baptist minister is now turning his attention toward helping the needy.
- Don Imus will make his return to radio on December 3rd, six months after the shock jock was fired from CBS radio for insensitive on-air comments. Imus’ new home will be from 6 to 10 AM on WABC radio, as rumored last month. His new salary: reportedly near $5 million.
- Jay-Z supports the controversial title of Nas‘ upcoming album, even though the uproar surrounding it has affected Hova in his role as Def Jam’s head. “He’s not just doing it for the sake of being provocative. Of course we’re going to support his art,” Jay-Z tells MTV News, “I hope [the concept] is coming from a great place.”
