"It's the roughest thing I ever had to go through. The heat is debilitating. I was sitting on a horse once and I remember thinking, 'Gosh, this is what it feels like before you faint - and then I fainted." NICOLE KIDMAN on sweating it out on the set of new movie AUSTRALIA.
LATEST: AMY WINEHOUSE has confirmed she has been working on the title track from forthcoming BOND movie QUANTUM OF SOLACE - following weeks of speculation about the track.
The troubled star was rumoured to have been dropped as the film's official musical muse after DJ Mark Ronson told reporters he had scrapped his 007 collaboration with the singer because she was not "ready" to work on music after a recent return to her erratic ways.
But Winehouse has now confirmed that she has in fact completed the song and is just waiting to get the green light from movie bosses over whether the song will be used in the film, which is due in cinemas later this year (08).
She says, "I've written the song. If they like it, they like it. If they don't, they don't."
And Ronson adds, "If I talk about it (James Bond star) Daniel Craig will whack me in the eyes. Amy wrote the song on an acoustic guitar. It was my job to help with the arrangement and realise the sound we were going for. So that was my role."
Pop superstar MADONNA upset her fans in France on Tuesday night (06May08) after turning up to a concert more than two hours late.
And the Holiday hitmaker further disgruntled her followers by only giving a 40-minute performance in the nation's capital, Paris.
Dressed in a black T-shirt, trousers and big boots, she finally took to the stage on a big chair by sipping champagne directly from the bottle. She got up from the chair and kissed one of her female dancers - like she did with Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera at the 2003 MTV Video Music Awards - before performing Hard Candy.
One fan, Melanie Monnier, told WENN after the show, "She is great, but the wait and the shortness of the show were a bit disappointed. There was a real lack of emotion."
And fan Guy Juliean even doubted Madonna was performing live. He said, "The show was perfect - too perfect with no room for any emotion. Was she singing live? I'm not sure. It was good to see her but I'm a bit disappointed by her lack of charisma tonight on stage."
The singer announced her love of France and spoke of the honour of performing on the same stage as the iconic French chanteuse Edith Piaf, or fellow legends Juliette Greco and Marlene Dietrich.
She says, "Why do I have this relationship with France? I'm always drawn to working with French people - and frenching French people. Vive la France!"
Lenny Kravitz, John Galliano and Kelly Rowland were among the crowd to see her perform four singles from her new album Hard Candy, as well as Hung up and Music.
