Sheryl Crow Becomes A Mom Via Adoption

Just in time for Mother's Day, Sheryl Crow the singer-guitarist has adopted a baby boy.

"I am so excited to share with you guys that I've adopted a little boy. He was born two weeks ago," Crow announced on her Web site Friday.

She told fans the boy's name "is Wyatt (after my dad) Steven (after my little brother and Scooter) and we are enjoying some very private family time."

This is the first child for Crow, 45, who underwent breast cancer surgery in February 2006.

That same month, she and cycling champion Lance Armstrong announced that they had broken up their engagement. It would have been her first marriage and the second for Armstrong. The pair met in October 2003 and began dating shortly after.

Did Crow bring Lance Armstrong to divorce his first wife and mother of his children?

A nine-time Grammy winner, Crow is best known for the hits "Soak Up the Sun" and "All I Want to Do."

Phil Spector's Trial Two Women Also Held At Gun Point

Phil Spector's trial has taken another turn after two more women claimed the legendary producer pulled a gun on them and held one hostage.

A Los Angeles court heard that Spector, who is charged with murdering actress Lana Clarkson in Los Angeles in 2003, tried to prevent one of the women, Melissa Grosvenor, from leaving his home in 1992.

Grosvenor said she met Spector in New York in 1991 when she was a waitress and had a platonic dating relationship with him for a year and a half.

Ms Grosvenor alleges that she had been on a dinner date with Spector a year later and when she tried to leave, the producer left the room and returned brandishing a handgun.

She told the court: "He walked right up to me and put the gun right up to my face and said: 'If you try to leave, I'm going to kill you'. I was shocked, I just started crying."

Ms Grosvenor later said that she fell asleep in a chair in the living room and the next morning she flew back to New York.

Another woman, Stephanie Jennings, also told the court, that Mr Spector had held her hostage with a gun in a hotel room in 1995.

Ms Jennings alleged that he slapped or pushed her before pulling out a gun.

Although she admitted that she did not believe Spector meant to kill her, she feared for her life because he could have shot her accidentally.

These claims by the two women show a dark side held in the mind of Phil Spector.
