Cee Lo Green has come under fire for changing the lyrics to John Lennon's 'Imagine' when he performed the song on New Year's Eve in Times Square, New York.

Instead of singing "and no religion too" he changed the words to state almost the exact opposite, singing the line "all religion is true", in his own rendition.

His move saw John Lennon fans take to Twitter to express their outrage at the 'bastardized' version. Billboard reported that after the incident, Cee Lo Green took to his own Twitter account to apologise, saying: "Yo I meant no disrespect by changing the lyric guys! I was trying to say a world were u could believe what u wanted that's all." However, this message was swiftly deleted.

Last year Cee Lo Green was cast as Wu Tang Clan rapper Raekwon's father in a new biopic.

Raekwon has been putting together the biopic, which is based around his early life in Staten Island, New York and told XXL Magazine that he has almost finished the script and has cast around 60% of the roles.

The film, which is titled C.R.E.A.M. after the 1993 Wu Tang Clan single, does not have a start date for filming or a confirmed studio, but Raekwon has said "it will definitely be in theatres".

Lady Gaga accused of taking part in a bloody 'Satanic ritual' in London

The singer left a bath full of blood at the Intercontinental Hotel.

Lady Gaga has been accused of partaking in a Satanic ritual, after leaving a bathtub full of blood in a London hotel.

The incident happened during the summer of last year at the Intercontinental Hotel in the capital. One of the hotel workers has now revealed to Truthquake their thoughts on the matter, and has said that the singer was "bathing in blood as part of a Satanic ritual".

The hotel worker went on to say: "Lady Gaga left large amounts of blood in the suite during a stay this summer. The incident was reported to the concierge, who was told to put it out of her mind."

Lady Gaga is currently being sued by her former personal assistant. TMZ claim that the 'Born This Way' star has been named in a $380,000 (£243,000) lawsuit filed by ex-employee Jennifer O'Neil, who says she is owed payment for 7,168 hours of overtime.

O'Neil alleges that she was responsible for "ensuring the promptness of a towel following a shower and serving as a personal alarm clock" for the singer, so she could keep to her hectic schedule.

She also claims that Gaga expected her to be at her service from the "earliest waking hour" and wanted her duties to extend to "stadiums, private jets, fine hotel suites, yachts, ferries, trains and tour buses". O'Neil alleges that the schedule meant that she was unable to take breaks "or even at times sleep".

However, a representative for Lady Gaga has refuted O'Neil's allegations and insisted they are "completely without merit".
