On November 1, 2005, Walt Disney Records releases the brand new “Chicken Little Soundtrack.” Complementing the November 4 theatrical release of Walt Disney Pictures’ computer animated “Chicken Little,” the soundtrack features nine songs and six score tracks from the movie.

Original tracks include the film’s opening song “One Little Slip,” written and performed by Barenaked Ladies; “Stir It Up,” an inspired duet between Patti LaBelle and Joss Stone; and “All I Know” performed by John Ondrasik of Five for Fighting. Multi-platinum recording artists The Cheetah Girls contribute a rump-shaking version of the Ray Charles classic “Shake a Tail Feather.” The six all-new, original score tracks — including “The Sky Is Falling,” “Chase to Cornfield” and “Driving With Dad” — were composed by Academy Award� nominee John Debney, whose list of credits include “The Passion of The Christ,” “The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement” and “Spy Kids.”

British soul singer Joss Stone has joined the North Shore Animal League America’s efforts to bring attention to the thousands of pets left homeless in the wake of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita.

“We need people to lend a hand and help these beautiful pets reach safe shelter and find loving, caring new homes,” said Stone.

“I believe that once people are aware of the situation, New Yorkers will want to step up and open their hearts and homes to these amazing animals.”

The Gap model just completed a New York-circulated PSA asking for help with the League’s efforts to rescue and find homes for abandoned and homeless pets.

In the latest all-star relief effort for Hurricane Katrina and Rita victims, Hurricane Relief: Come Together Now — an industry-wide double disc mixtape featuring new, live and collaborative tracks from some of the biggest names in music — will be released mid-November.
The album’s lead single, “Come Together Now,” became available for download Tuesday via iTunes and Rhapsody. The song, written and produced in part by actress Sharon Stone, features Patti LaBelle, Joss Stone, Celine Dion, Natalie Cole, the Game, Chingy, John Legend, Wyclef Jean, Gavin DeGraw and Mya, among others.

Soulful siren Joss Stone arrived in Bermuda Wednesday afternoon. We caught up with her briefly yesterday before her performance. Miss Stone’s voice was feeling a little touchy, so she spent most of the day resting.
The young sensation leaves today for Los Angeles, where she will perform Sir Elton John’s ‘Believe’ at his Society of Singers’ ELLA Award ceremony Monday.

Where were you before you arrived, and what’s next after you leave Bermuda?
I was in New York City and then I am going to Los Angeles.

What did you know about Bermuda before coming here?
I really didn’t know anything, what I know now is it is beautiful.

Have you ever been to Bermuda before?
No, this is my first time.
