5 Apr '00: Dave Stewart has announced plans to launch a New Age television channel in the Netherlands. Stewart has teamed up with Eileen Gregory and Morgan Mason, to develop Innergy, which will be broadcast by cable network UPCtv from the summer.
Programming will concentrate on lifestyle and magazine slots on 'spirituality, sex and cooking'. Speaking to the BBC - and slipping into infomercial mode - Stewart said, "I am very proud to be involved with the channel dedicated to investigating human potential. "With so many channels bombarding us with trivial information, as Mick Jagger would say 'at last I can get some satisfaction' - with a little help from my friends at UPCtv." - From Q Magazine

It was a moving performance by the diva, who was wearing a sequinned dress, feather boa, long black boots and sunglasses. Other artists featured were Carlos Santana, Whitney Houston, Sarah McLachlan and a prerecorded special by Aretha Franklin. The show will air (in the US) on 15 May (NBC, 8:00pm ET). There's a picture of Annie smiling at Yahoo-news.

1 May '00: In a short article in the Daily Mirror, Saturday April 22nd, 2000, it was revealed that Annie Lennox and Uri Fruchtmann have split up after 12 years of marriage. The article in the sensationalist British tabloid paper explained that their relationship had suffered since she reformed the Eurythmics with "ex-lover" Dave Stewart. Apparantly she is flying to the Carribean to forget her troubles, and then plans to live alone with her children Lola, and Tali at her 2 million pound London mansion. Apparantly some acquiantance spilled the beans to the paper as the article qoutes someone for saying:
"It has come as a shock to a lot of us but things just weren't working. Uri is extremely busy with his film career and last year was a big one for Annie with the band getting back together. Things started to deteriorate from there and they've gone their separate ways but it's still too early to talk about divorce."
Annie Lennox has not herself commented on the news. I do think however that there is some truth to this tabloid story, although I seriously doubt that "ex-lover" Dave Stewart has anything to do with the split.
