Congrats to Joss as she’s picked up her 2nd Grammy Award! Welllllll, an album she contributed to did, so I’d assume she, and all the featured artists, get credited with a Grammy win. If not, someone please correct me! It was a compilation album, so it’s not like it was one artist’s project.

Anyway, EMI Gospel’s Oh Happy Day: An All-Star Music Celebration (related link) — on which Joss sang “This Little Light Of Mine” with Buick Audra — won in the Best Traditional Gospel Album category.

So, congratulations go out to all the participating artists!

Joss made a quick appearance on E! comedy show The Soup recently. The show, hosted by Joel McHale, basically pokes fun at other reality/talk shows that air on TV. If something hilarious happened on a reality show, you can bet that Joel will make fun of it on The Soup. It’s a great show!

Anyway, in this bit, Joss stops by hoping to get hooked up with The Bachelor star Jake Pavelka because she wants her own personal pilot lol.

Hard Rock International has teamed up with a number of artists for its global Imagine There’s No Hunger campaign to benefit WHY (World Hunger Year), a non-profit organisation that strives to fight against hunger and poverty.

The campaign comes to London next week when the capital’s Hard Rock Cafe hosts a benefit concert headlined by Joss Stone on December 1.

“I’m really happy and excited to be able to be an Artist Ambassador once again for Hard Rock’s Imagine There’s No Hunger campaign and to lend my time and support to World Hunger Year, so that together we can try to put an end to world hunger,” says Stone, who was also an ambassador for the cause in 2008.

Also performing are American rock band O.A.R. – this year’s global artist ambassador for the campaign.

The invitation-only event will feature appearances by several artists and special guests who are committed to the cause with all proceeds benefitting WHY.

Former Beatles star Ringo Starr will release a new album, Y Not, on January 12, 2010. He’s enlisted help from some industry friends including former bandmate Paul McCartney. Joss also is set to contribute to the album with both vocal and songwriting credits. Others featured include Ben Harper and Richard Marx.

The joyous result of Starr looking in the mirror is Y Not, a groovy and deeply felt song cycle that finds Ringo leading a smaller core group of old and new friends including longtime pal and recent brother-in-law Joe Walsh, Dave Stewart and longtime Roundheads member Steve Dudas on guitar, Benmont Tench of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers on keyboards, Don Was and Mike Bradford on bass. The album also features Starr’s engineer and co-producer Bruce Sugar on keyboards, as well as some special guests like Joss Stone, Ben Harper and Richard Marx on vocals, Ann Marie Calhoun on violin and Tina Sugandh — aka Tina The Tabla Girl – on tabla and chanting. Starr’s songwriting collaborators on Y Not also include familiar and new names like Joe Walsh, Dave Stewart, Joss Stone, Glen Ballard, Richard Marx, Van Dyke Parks, Gary Nicholson plus Gary Wright and his former Roundhead band member, Gary Burr.
