Heard it through the indie grapvine!

Fresh from scooping prestigious UK award the Mercury Music Prize, arty Glaswegian quartet Franz Ferdinand embark on another debauched US tour. But are they all they seem? Apparently not! Before hitting the big time, friends knew exotic-sounding singer Alex Kapranos as plain old Alex Huntley. And why do you never read about his age? Could he be the wrong side of 35? Our lips are sealed—for now.

Man of the moment Kanye West has apparently commissioned a re-creation of Michelangelo’s ultra-famous Sistine Chapel in his dining room. Like the Pope, the rapper will now be dining with more than 50 cherubs and saints above him. Having already depicted himself as a preacher in his “Jesus Walks” video, could Kanye be preparing to feed the five thousand?

Rumor has it that Stellastarr (the best band ever, probably) will be heading back into the studio someday. We are gagging to hear a brand new batch of their adept and original compositions. You go, ‘Starr!

What is it about gorgeous, pouting Razorlight frontman Johnny Borrell? Why does he always look so…desperate? Word has it the blond hunk has a voracious appetite for “refreshments.” Could that be why he appeared so crazed performing the smash hit “Golden Touch” on British TV recently? That track, incidentally, is all about indie beauty Mairead from hip UK party-starters the Queens Of Noize…swoon!

Las Vegas’ lipglossed synth punks The Killers all worked in the same mall before they met! They each did time at the palatial Aladdin hotel shops, hooking up only after Dave placed an ad in a local paper.
