Wearing a warm hooded jacket, Corinne Bailey Rae was spotted out for the first time since her husband Jason Rae passed away unexpectedly this past weekend.

As a tribute, the Grammy Award winning singer laid flowers and heather at a 32ft memorial cross on the moors near her home in Otley, West Yorkshire.

Both recovering from personal tragedies in the past year, British soul singer Amy Winehouse and hip-hop star Kanye West were the highlights of this year's Grammy awards.

Winehouse scored big wins, grabbing trophies for record of the year, song of the year and best new artist, while putting on a moving performance via satellite from London.

This summer, music fans and environmentalists alike have something to cheer about. The world's biggest names in the music industry are prepping to help save the planet in a series of concerts around the world. Madonnna and James Blunt are two of the names among the many acts expected to perform at the Live Earth concert in London on July 7, in hopes of raising awareness of climate change and the dangers it poses.
