Jimmy Page Says Led Zeppelin Have A Live Future

Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page has hinted that the band still have a live future following their reunion concert last December.

Speaking at a music awards ceremony, where the band were named Best Live act, Page said: "I hope fans can vote for Led Zeppelin live awards in the future."

The band's show at the O2 Arena in London last year was one of the most anticipated music events of all time, attracting over 1 million requests for tickets.

Although Page acknowledged that people would like to see the band live, he said that much relied on frontman Robert Plant, who has so far distanced himself from playing any more dates.

"You've got to have all four members and Robert Plant is out on the road [right now]," he told the Daily Star newspaper.

"I'm not gonna persuade Robert to do anything. You come together through the goodness of your heart."

Plant is currently on the road with songwriter Alison Krauss. You can see pictures from their recent show at Madison Square Garden in New York below...

Judge tosses out former NYC gossip columnist's defamation suit

NEW YORK - A judge has dismissed New York Post gossip columnist Jared Paul Stern's defamation lawsuit against the Daily News, supermarket mogul Ron Burkle and Bill and Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Stern denied Burkle's claim that he'd demanded money to squelch negative news.

The Clintons are friends of Burkle, and the former president complained about Stern's Page Six column. The Daily News reported on the fracas involving its rival.

Stern's lawsuit, filed in March 2007, accused Burkle and the Clintons of trying to defame and discredit him. He claimed the Daily News - along with a publicist and a former Secret Service investigator - conspired with them.

State Supreme Court Justice Walter Tolub said Tuesday that Stern didn't prove his case.

Stern and his lawyer did not return a call and e-mail Tuesday.

Gavin Rossdale - Rossdale Blames Del Toro For Lack Of Movie Roles

British rocker-turned-actor GAVIN ROSSDALE blames BENICIO DEL TORO for his stalled Hollywood career - because the Latin star lands all the best movie roles.

Rossdale, who is married to pop star Gwen Stefani, hit the big-screen in his first major role in 2005's Constantine.

But he's failed to win another "great" movie part since - and is convinced Oscar winner Del Toro is the reason for his lack of work.

He tells Britain's New! magazine, "I'm not prepared to be in bad films just to keep my foot in the door. So I'm reliant on a great part coming along.

"And the problem is, I want every role that Benicio Del Toro does, so I'm f**ked until he wants to take a holiday."
