McCartney's song for estranged wife

London, June 23 Beatles legend Sir Paul McCartney has a love song on his new album dedicated to his estranged wife Heather Mills.

The song, "On See Your Sunshine", was written before their marriage broke up and he sings: "She makes me feel glad/I want her so bad."

Said McCartney, speaking about his new album "Memory Almost Full": "A lot of the album was done before, during and after our separation. I didn't go back and take out
any songs to do with her. That one was written during a good time with Heather.

"I don't want to deny those times. When you're going through a separation, it's always tempting to put all that behind you, but I don't think that's right."

Mills claimed that McCartney hit her but said she wanted to keep things civil for their daughter. "I'm not a great grudge-holder. It's just unfortunate it didn't work out."

Biel comes to terms with sex symbol status

London, June 23 Hollywood siren Jessica Biel has finally come to terms with her sex symbol status as one of the world's sexiest women alive. She says she would proudly tell her grandchildren about the honour.

Jessica, who is currently dating pop superstar Justin Timberlake, has topped many men's magazine polls and confesses that it was a great feeling she found difficult to digest, reports contactmusic.com.

She says: "At first I felt really embarrassed about it. You know, it's a weird thing to talk about. Like, 'Hey, guys. Guess what?' You don't just go telling everybody that.

"But after I got over that, I just started to embrace it. I started thinking, If I ever do have kids, and if they have kids, I can tell them: 'You know what? Your grandma in 2000-and-whatever was the Sexiest Woman Alive. How about that, kids?' That's what I started to think about. I'll always have that picture to say, 'That's what Granny used to look like.'"

Spice Girls agree for reunion world tour

London, June 23 The English all girls band Spice Girls have agreed to sign up for a reunion world tour for which each member will get 10 million pounds.

The disbanded group comprising Baby, Ginger, Posh, Scary and Sporty will release details of their 25-date "farewell" tour next Friday.

Mirror.co.uk reports that the band's Virgin record label will organise private jets to take each one of them around the world.

A source said the reunion would be the most talked about showbiz event of the year. "This deal has taken years to sign off. But finally all the girls are on board. It's going to be one of the most phenomenal pop events ever. No expense is being spared to make this an unrivalled spectacular."

The insider added: "The sum on the table is huge - but then it had to be to get the more reluctant members like Mel C to agree. She's been quite precious about her solo career and has always said she'd never get back with the girls.

"But with such a huge sum guaranteed, you can hardly blame her for finally caving in. Now she's now one of the most enthusiastic - although they're all buzzing with a mixture of excitement and trepidation."
