Quantum Of Solace 003

'I played him something I've been kicking around for a while and he immediately came out with words for it,' White tells British GQ.By Kyle Anderson Jay-Z Photo: Kevin Winter/ Getty Images Jack White is a busy man. At the moment, he's involved in at least one full-time outfit (the Dead Weather) while two other groups wait in the wings (the Raconteurs and the long-dormant White Stripes). Though each of his musical projects is unique, they all feature White's swamp-monster guitar sounds and his signature voice. According to a recent interview in the British version of GQ magazine, he may now be expanding his palette to include hip-hop. "I just did a record with Jay-Z," White told the magazine. "We did a song together a few weeks ago. It was incredible." White didn't tell the magazine when the song might be released or on whose album it could appear, but he was blown away by Jigga's legendary knack for improvisation. "I played him something that I've been kicking around for a while and he immediately came out with words for it," White said. "It's unbelievable-sounding." This would mark White's first proper foray into hip-hop, though he has already teamed up with a mutual friend of his and Jay's. In 2008, he recorded "Another Way to Die" — the official theme song of the 2008 James Bond film "Quantum of Solace" — with Alicia Keys, churning out a ruggedly sexy track that split the difference between White's visceral garage and Keys' funky R&B. White can currently be seen in the new White Stripes concert documentary "Under Great White Northern Lights," while Jay is busy helping get a basketball arena built in Brooklyn.

Filed under: Coupe, Aston Martin, Celebrities Quantum of Solace Aston Martin DBS - Click above for high-res image gallery If you're not a big fan of Olympic ice skating you probably missed the fact that U.S. skater Evan Lysacek beat out Russian favorite Evgeni Plushenko to win the gold metal at the Vancouver games. We know we missed it, but we can't pass on a chance to talk about the Aston Martin DBS. It seems Lysacek has a fondness for fast cars and James Bond movies, and the best way to celebrate the biggest of skating wins is with an Aston. Yahoo is reporting that Lysacek will celebrate victory in the Great White North by ponying up more than $269,000 for a new DBS (the Quantum of Solace DBS starts at $305,000). The world-renown skater (in skating circles, anyway) is trading up from his Land Rover for an English GT that is more our cup of tea. Yahoo quotes Aston Martin Newport Beach in Southern California executive salesman Gary Briggs as saying "we know how much Evan likes his luxury cars, and he will enjoy taking a tour of a showroom and test driving the DBS." So would we. As to how Lysacek intends to pay for his new Aston, we're guessing the advertising deals that come with winning gold in one of the winter game's more popular events will more than make up for the quarter million he'll need to spend to get behind the wheel of a DBS. We never really aspired to Olympic gold, but if we knew the winner got a DBS, we may have taken those childhood skiing lessons a bit more seriously. Let us know when you're ready to take us for a spin, Evan.
