Bauhaus' David J Teams With Teen Singer McKenna Frazer For Her Debut

McKenna Frazer's debut single is a cover of Bauhaus' David J's "I'll Be Your Chauffeur" which was recording in collaboration with J and Thievery Corporation's Rob Garza and the story of how that happened is quite the tale. Her camp sent it over:

San Francisco native,18-year old McKenna Frazer is charming, talented, driven, adventurous, and loves to give back. She is also an avid music lover. And it doesn't hurt that David J, renowned artist and founding member of the rock band Bauhaus, is her biggest advocate.

Their recent collaboration, a rendition of his hit "I'll Be Your Chauffeur," was originally recorded as a gift for McKenna's father, who is a good friend of David J's. McKenna grew up listening to David's music and when she decided to record a song for her dad, this one seemed perfect. She was going through her dad's music collection and came across "I'll Be Your Chauffeur," a song she knew by heart. She describes the process as simple and organic, saying that "the song is so beautiful- it just clicked. I wanted to record a song for my dad before I left for my gap-year in India, and I knew it was the perfect choice." She began teaching herself the chords, popped open her laptop, and began laying down individual tracks for the ukulele and vocals. After adding harmonies and a little "do-do-do" line (which she borrowed from the guitar riff on the Pretender's song, "Back on the Chain Gang") it was complete! more on this story

Double Dare Host Marc Summers Broke Multiple Bones In His Face

(TMZ) Marc Summers -- the legendary host of "Double Dare" -- tells TMZ he suffered multiple broken bones in his face and required emergency surgery after a bad car accident in Philadelphia last week.

Summers -- who also hosts "Unwrapped" on the Food Network -- says he can't remember much about the accident ... only that he was a passenger in the back seat of a taxi cab ... when the car hydroplaned and lost control.

60-year-old Summers says ... he was told he flew out of his seat and into the clear partition inside the taxi cab face first ... breaking several bones in the process.

Marc was rushed to a nearby hospital ... and says doctors performed emergency plastic surgery to put his face back together.

The TV icon tells us he's out of the hospital and resting at his home in Philly.

"I'm all good ... just in a lot of pain."

Summers says ever since the accident his famous Food Network chef friends like Mario Batali, Bobby Flay and Michael Symon have come through STRONG ... offering to make him special "get well" meals.

Problem is Marc is still having some trouble operating his mouth ... and can't chew very well. So he's been limited to easily consumed soft food items like pastas and purees.

Side note - Summers says he has not looked at himself in the mirror yet ... but he's been told that the damage isn't too bad. more on this story

Katherine Wanted Michael Jackson Estate To Pay For Janet's Toilet Paper Not Mortgage

(TMZ) We have more info on Katherine Jackson's request for the Michael Jackson Estate to pay for expenses related to Janet Jackson's Las Vegas home, and it turns out toilet paper -- NOT mortgages -- is on her mind.

As we previously reported, the Estate filed documents asking the court to allow the Executors to pay Katherine for "expenses relating to .... a residence in Las Vegas."

We're told the residence is Janet Jackson's home. Fact is ... there's no need to cover any mortgage expenses, because we're told Janet doesn't have a mortgage -- she owns the home outright, but never spends time there. In fact, we're told she bought the home so Katherine could use it. And, she has provided various other forms of support for Katherine over the years. So what we reported initially -- that the Estate would pay part of the mortgage -- isn't the case.

Sources connected to Katherine now tell us, Katherine wants the money because she incurs various expenses when she spends time at Janet's property. Our sources say the expenses include, food, cable, utilities, Internet, travel and even toilet paper.

It's unclear why Katherine feels she's entitled to more money for things like food and toilet paper, because what she consumes and uses in Vegas she doesn't in L.A. more on this story

As we previously reported, Halle wants to move across the pond with her daughter and fiance to escape the constant paparazzi attention and recent intruders at her L.A. home. more on this story
