That's some pretty grandiose praise!

Sting firmly believes that President Barack Obama is the best man to deal with the world's problems because he's "genuine, very present, clearly super-smart, and exactly what we need in the world…because of his background, his education, particularly in regard to Islam."

The British singer is very interested in American politics and had some choice words about the conservative side and those against Obama:

"It's aggressive and violent and full of fear. They don't want change, they want things to feel the same because they feel safe there. My hope is that we can start talking about real issues and not caring about whether God cares about your hemline or your color. We are here to evolve as one family, and we can't be separate anymore."

Smart man, that Sting!

Uma Thurman and her SUPER wealthy fiance, rich dude Arpad Busson, are reportedly getting married at Kensington Palace next June 2010, the same place where Princess Diana once lived.

Chances are, though, that they'll be broken up by then!

The couple is said to have booked the famed Orangery in the palace for their ceremony with the guest list including Sir Elton John, Sting, Claudia Schiffer and Elizabeth Hurley.

To make sure the ceremony is totally private, they have booked the entire palace for the event.

He can afford it!

Uma and Arpad met in 2007 and have 4 children between the two of them. Uma has two from her previous marriage to Ethan Hawke and Arpad has two from his relationship with Elle McPherson.

This will be Arpad's first marriage and the third for Uma! Her first marriage was to actor Gary Oldman.

Well, they say the third time's the charm!

Sting's wife, Trudie Styler, is receiving her fair share of flack for the size of her carbon footprint!

Seems the environmentally aware Styler flew her glam squad on a private jet from New York to Washington D.C. to beautify her for last weekend's White House Correspondents' Dinner!

Trudie tried to justify her choice to fly private by informing reporters, "Yes, I do take planes. My life is to travel and my life is also to speak out about the horrors of an environment that is being abused at the hands of oil companies."

Not so fast!

Sting and his wife have already been criticized for having a "carbon footprint estimated at 30 times that of the average UK resident" and only donating 41% of the proceeds of the musician's benefit concert for the Rainforest Foundation to the charity.

Yikes!

Also, couldn't Trudie have hired a stylist to tag along???

Sting's tie?

A fashion don't!!!

Yikes!

Sting's 18-year-old daughter, musician Coco Summer, is in the hospital recovering from a fractured skull following a nasty spill.

Coco was dining at a restaurant in Los Angeles when she complained of feeling ill. Upon standing, the aspiring singer fell and hit her head over the weekend.

Sting, who happened to be in the States, rushed to be at her bedside, while mother Trudie Styler, flew in from the UK.

Even though it's a "serious injury and Coco is under constant surveillance," she is said to be doing well.

We wish her a speedy recovery!

Rock royalty Sting has turned to dying his hair and beard in a bid to preserve his youthful good looks.

W.I.T.

Whatever it takes!

Sting and wife, Trudie Styler, showed up at the Art of Elysium 2nd Annual Heaven Gala looking much younger than their actual ages.

Though the dress code called for black tie attire, Sting wore an open shirt and scarf, instead.

But hey! He's Sting! He can do whatever he wants!

Sting is scheduled to perform in Washington, D.C. as part of Barack Obama's inauguration celebrations.

Dyed beard and hair or not - he's still way hawt!

The Police played their final reunion show on Thursday night at Madison Square Garden in NYC, and none other than The Boss himself, Bruce Springsteen, showed up to catch the gig.

Sting not only decided to shave his hairy beard during a break in the show, but he also treated concertgoers to a little shirtless action.

The man is 56 years old.

God damn!!!

Still looking sooooo fiiiiiiine.
