Closing the Marriage Chapter

A judge granted actress Jane Fonda’s divorce from CNN founder Ted Turner on Tuesday, bringing their marriage to a quiet end. “I feel sadness,” the 63-year-old former fitness guru said in a statement. “We shared 10 years together, and I will always care for him. Now it’s time to move on, and I wish him well.” Turner said that he wished her “all the very best” and that they would remain close friends. As for settlement details, Fonda’s spokesman would say only that “all issues are resolved.” Turner, 62, and Fonda married in December 1991 and announced their separation in January 2000.

Economy Cripples Female Orchestra

The Women’s Philharmonic, a 20-year-old San Francisco organization that splits its resources between performing and advocating for women composers and musicians, has canceled its 2001-02 subscription series because of what its board president called a “cash-flow crunch.” “We just got slammed by what’s happening in the economy,” President Leyna Bernstein told the San Francisco Chronicle, noting that the group has been hit by both rising concert costs and a sharp decline in donations. Bernstein said the group’s advocacy efforts would continue while organizers try to figure out a way to continue the concert series. Financial pressures have forced the orchestra to cancel performances before, in 1995 and 1996.

Now the remaining 120 angels will be sold off via E-Bay to benefit youth programs. Beginning June 1, “flights” of five to 10 angels will appear on the auction Web site each week.

Aguilera Battles Over Early Tapes

Singer Christina Aguilera has sued two music companies, her former producers and others in an attempt to block the commercial release of demo tapes she made several years ago. A 13-song album, “Just Be Free,” is to be released June 5, and distributors have already accepted tens of thousands of orders at $10 each, according to the suit. Aguilera maintains the recordings were made solely to introduce the singer to record companies and alleges that her name, likeness and photograph have been used without her consent. Aguilera’s suit is in response to one filed against her last week by Platinum Recording Group and JFB Music, which contend they own rights to the recordings and should be allowed to release the album.
