AMY WINEHOUSE CONFIRMS JAMES BOND

Troubled singer Amy Winehouse is confirming rumors that she has been working on the title track from forthcoming James Bond epic Quantum Of Solace, following weeks of speculation about the track. The Rehab singer was said 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 wild 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.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 realize the sound we were going for. So that was my role."

DANIEL CRAIG NUDE FOR NEXT BOND

Daniel Craig has vowed to "go totally nude" for the next Bond film. The hunky 39-year-old actor - who made his debut as suave spy James Bond in last year's 'Casino Royale' - insists it's only fair he appears naked when he reprises his role, because Bond girls are always expected to strip off. He said: "I'd go totally nude. I've got nothing to hide, and after all, we ask the girls to reveal almost all, so why not the men?" Daniel also revealed he felt "nervous" at the stir he caused in the now infamous 'Casino Royale' scene where he emerges from the sea in tight blue swimming trunks. He added to New! magazine: "Did I know the trunk thing would be such a big deal? Yeah. I saw it on a huge billboard in Hollywood and people were screaming. It did make me feel rather nervous." The star also branded his Bond co-star Dame Judi Dench - who plays spy boss M - "sexy as hell and a total tease".

AMY WINEHOUSE TO DO JAMES BOND

Amy Winehouse is set to sing the next James Bond theme tune. The 'Rehab' singer could soon be following in the footsteps of legends like Dame Shirley Bassey, Gladys Knight and Tina Turner, after catching the attention of composer David Arnold. Arnold, who composed the last three 007 theme songs, is so impressed with Amy's husky voice, he wants her to record the next Bond title track. He told Britain's Daily Express newspaper: "Amy Winehouse did the best record of last year. I haven't asked her yet but I think she'd be good, although Bond songs can be a bit of a war zone. "The next film will be in 2008 and we're almost finished with the script. The books are all done now so this one is going to be an extension of what happens to Bond, continuing the story from 'Casino Royale'. We haven't a title yet but anything without death, dying, tomorrow or dies would be fine by me!" Earlier this week, Amy, 23, won Song Of The Year at the MOJO Honours List for 'Rehab'. The award - her sixth this year - follows the chart-topping success of her second album, 'Back to Black' released last year.

STAR DANIEL CRAIG FIGHTING THE FLAB

James Bond's Daniel Craig fighting the fat

Daniel Craig is fighting the flab to salvage his muscle-bound physique. The latest Bond star admits he has let himself go since showing off his honed physique in tight swimming trunks in 'Casino Royale' last year. Craig said: "I had some down-time and got to enjoy myself a bit. I'm getting back in shape now. I'm kind of building myself up again." Craig's first appearance as 007 was a huge success, with 'Casino Royale' becoming the highest grossing Bond film of all time. The 39-year-old has until January 2008 - when the next Bond film is scheduled to start filming - to get himself back in shape. The screenplay is being penned by Neil Purvis, who has written the scripts for the previous three Bonds, but the film is as yet unnamed. Craig added: "We have to make the next one better than the last one to keep people happy."
