Joss has signed on to perform at a gala following the May 7 City Salute at St Paul’s Churchyard in London.

She is performing at the event due to her friendship with two patrons of the City Salute Appeal, Princes William and Harry.

City Salute pageant aims to raise money for Britain’s injured servicemen and women and will feature fly-pasts and marches in front of St Paul’s Cathedral.

In addition, Joss has voiced her displeasure with how the government treats injured troops.

Pop star Joss Stone is to launch a legal battle in a bid to leave her record label EMI. The singer has hired a legal team to help free her of her current three-album deal with the troubled music company.

The British-based label was bought out last year by capital group Terra Firma and has since seen the exit of a host of high-profile artists including Radiohead, the Rolling Stones and Paul McCartney.

Stone is the latest star to voice displeasure at the stricken firm, insisting her decision to leave is based on EMI’s insistence on maintaining creative control over her future projects.

She says, “I’m not happy at all with EMI. I’ve spoken to my lawyers and am seeing what my options are. The industry is in a state and EMI are in a state, so I would rather work on other things.” – WENN

*I hope Joss can get this worked out soon and it doesn’t affect when we hear new music from her! I’ll try and touch base with her and see if she can give me an update on how things are going.
