Pete Doherty and his former bandmate, Carl Barat, are getting back together…to work on a musical!
Sorry, Libertines fans, they're not quite ready to reunite in that way!
London’s Donmar Warehouse theatre commissioned the musical, which is, at the moment, expected to prem in early 2009.
Doperty and his old music partner are supposed to start work on the musical next week at Pete's drug den home.
Barat expects that they'll write 20 new songs for the musical, which will be about the dramz surrounding an up-and-coming band.
And, will the 'fictional' band in the musical be torn apart due to the severe drug abuse of one of its members?
Good luck, Carl!

Avril's Still Constipated
As we told you previously… Avril Lavigne has been having a very hard time moving tickets to her upcoming tour.

Avril Lavigne has been having a very hard time moving tickets to her upcoming tour.
Well, she's still having probs with tix sales and now they're taking very costly measures to get bodies in the concert venues.
One of our prezious Canuck readers reached out to let us know that MuchOnDemand did a give away for Avril Concert tickets recently.
They gave away EIGHT tickets!
It struck and us quite odd because 2 tickets is the standard for a giveaway.
Smells like trouble to us!
Gotta fill those seats one way or another.

So Over You is a synthpop confection that The Killers would love.
It's even got handclaps!!!!

Disney is going 3-D cahh-raa-zee! We reported last week that the mouse house is planning to do Step Up 3 in 3-D.

We reported last week that the mouse house is planning to do Step Up 3 in 3-D.
Now, new reports are circulating that the studio plans to release a 3-D sequel to its classic sci-fi movie Tron in 2011.
Now THAT is a movie we'd much rather see in 3-D!
The original Tron was released in 1982. The sequel will, without a doubt, be so much better than the orig!
Technology has come a long way since 1982.
Disney supposedly has Cars 2, National Treasure 3 and Pirates of the Caribbean 4 scheduled for release in 2011.
They don't have any interest in releasing new ORIGINAL material!
High School Musical To Hit Reality TV

ABC is joining the rest of the networks by adding even more reality shows to its lineup. And, they're dipping into corporate daddy Disney's pool for talent!
Reports are surfacing that ABC is planning to release a High School Musical type of reality show, where contestants will compete in a nationwide talent hunt for the best singers.
Those that make it through will study at a music conservatory to sharpen their skills and then each week, contestants will be eliminated until a final performer is chosen.
The show will likely have cameo appearances by some of HSM's top stars. Though, we doubt Zacquisha will make an appearance. He's too above that now. Unless they pay him enough!
ABC is said to be in discussions with a production company to handle the show, though no deal has yet to be finalized.
The show is set to air this summer.
Will you watch, or are you on a HSM overload still?
Don't know, but this sounds too much like American Idol for us. We bet there will be three judges, 2 guys and 1 girl, of those one will be black or latino, one will be the 'nice' one, and the other will be the 'mean' one.
And, of course, ALL the contestants will be gay!
