HOPE you're well this week and not too sunburnt after the brilliant weather we've had. It's Star Wars crazy this week and one of the stars of the film, Natalie Portman has dropped a bombshell to bosses.

She plays Queen Amidala in the movie, and is tipped to be red hot property in Hollywood. But she's said this week that she doesn't really know whether she wants to be an actress or not, she's only 17 and at the moment wants to follow in the footsteps of her father and become a doctor. I'd say there's just a little bit more money in acting, wouldn't you?

Here are this week recommendations in the Starbeat Record Review.

Five - If Ya Gettin Down This is my big tune for this week. The first single to be taken from their second album, Sampling Indeeps - Last Night A DJ Saved My Life keeping the original rap in it as well. Was a classic song originally and still is now that Five have added their little bits to it.

Doolally - Straight From The Heart Along the lines of Shanks & Bigfoot's Sweet Like Chocolate, this tune not only sounds the same but has the same chart potential. Big hit.

Candi Statton - Young Hearts Run Free Twenty three years after its original release its back. Danced up and re-mixed and sounding very very good. K Klass responsible for the re-mixes, currently number 10 in the dancecharts expected to do well on the North West top 40.
