//Mixed Bits: Elton John And Lily Allen Scuffle At GQ Awards; R. Kelly Tour Promoter Must Pay Ne-Yo; Usher Plans Tour For The Ladies//

Who knew Elton John was such a diva!? Everyone? Fine. Well, Lily Allen experienced the 61-year-old music legend’s sharp tongue first hand (and not in the sexy way) at last night’s GQ Men of the Year Awards in London. As the two hosted the event, in usual Lily fashion, the 23-year-old singer sipped champagne on stage as the night went along until she began cursing and slurring her words.

Check out the play-by-play of the catfight from the Times of London:

When Allen told the audience at London’s Royal Opera House “now we reach a very special point in the evening”, Sir Elton replied: “What, you are going to have another drink?”

Allen, dressed demurely in a full-length ball gown, responded: “F*** off Elton, I’m 40 years younger than you, I have my whole life ahead of me.”

The 61-year-old superstar, watched by audience members including Gordon Ramsay, Thandie Newton and Elle MacPherson, then told her: “I could still snort you under the table.”

She replied: “F*** off. I don’t know what you are talking about.”  [Read More]

Respect your elders, Lil! Sir Elton has years of sass under his belt. Grow up before you try to out sass the sass master (copyright iCarly).

Ne-Yo is finally getting what’s owed to him after being bounced off of R. Kelly’s tour last year.

Georgia-based Rowe Entertainment, the company responsible for promoting Kelly’s jaunt, has been order by a Los Angeles Superior Court judge to pay Ne-Yo over $700,000 for the remaining shows on the tour he did not get to perform; he was removed after only two shows. Rowe never contested the lawsuit filed by Ne-Yo’s management earlier this year.

Ne-Yo has come out saying he was kicked off because his stage show received better reviews than the embattled music veteran. Kelly denied his claim. Rowe claims Ne-Yo’s camp never turned in the proper paperwork to secure Ne-Yo’s spot on the tour.

Yes, Usher is married, but he still wants to one night you, ladies. All of you–and Tameka is fine with it. No, he’s not on some freaky swingers type stuff. He’s planning an intimate tour outing for ladies only.

The “One Night Stand” tour will be announced shortly but Usher has already revealed in an interview with the Associated Press that it will be a 15-city run in intimate venues around the country.

The 29-year-old father of one is ready for the challenge of performing for women only. He told AP:

“There’s only a few artists that can pull that off,” said the 29-year-old singer. “I feel like I’ve had such a connection with my audience. This album, I felt like, was definitely the type of one that was more intimate. So what better way to get up close and personal than to make it all women?”

“The ladies like to see that masculine build,” he said. “They question if I still got it.” [Source]

He will tie in the release of his line of women’s lingerie and male underwear to the kick-off of the tour. Savory!
