princess 1,710 Report post Posted July 29, 2004 LANCE TO WED? Page Six IS Lance Armstrong engaged to Sheryl Crow? The six-time Tour de France winner didn't object ? and neither did she ? when staffers at the Hotel de Crillon in Paris referred to his singing sweetie as his "fiancée." Insiders at Crow's label, Interscope, said they had also heard the "rumor" that Armstrong proposed after winning the world's top bicycle race. A rep for Crow uttered a terse "no comment" when asked about the engagement. An assistant for Armstrong's rep also declined comment, as her boss was on a plane. Crow has told pals in the past she would like to have a child with Armstrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

princess 1,710 Report post Posted December 1, 2004 Sheryl Crow Fan Beats Stalking Rap Wednesday Dec 01, 2004 8:00am EST By Jennifer O'Dell people.com CREDIT: GREGG DEGUIRE/WIREIMAGE A love-struck fan who ardently pursued singer Sheryl Crow was found not guilty on burglary and stalking charges in a New York courtroom Tuesday, after the jury deliberated for about three hours. As the verdict was read, an unsmiling Ambrose Kappos, 38, remained stoic, before he noisily kissed his lawyer on both cheeks and said, "That's a Greek kiss, brother." He also kissed his father on the cheek, and when his mother started to cry, he consoled her by saying, "It's over, it's over, it's over." Had he been convicted, Kappos faced up to seven years in prison. During the trial, his defense lawyer Stanford Hickman pointed out that his client was polite and unthreatening, just in love with Crowe ? who had testified that Kappos "creeped me out" for following her (from July 2002 until his Oct. 6, 2003 arrest, according to charges) and contacting members of her family (in Tennessee and Missouri). Crowe, 42, who has been dating cycling champ Lance Armstrong, was not in court for the verdict. She has yet to comment on the outcome of the case. Outside the courtroom, the goateed Kappos, a former Navy diver, said, "Let me just say to Ms. Crow I pray that the universe pours down all of its blessings upon her and her loved ones now and always. A simple no thank you would been satisfactory." As for his feelings about Crow: "I have nothing against the woman. I'm pretty sure I probably would buy her next album." That sucks for Sheryl! I saw some video footage when they interviewed this guy, he's scarry!! Total nut job! I have a feeling this guy is going to continue harassing her.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

princess 1,710 Report post Posted December 1, 2004 Crow's "Spiritual Twin" ClearedEOnline.comby Charlie AmterDec 1, 2004, 7:15 AM PTA former Navy diver who claimed he was a "spiritual twin" to Sheryl Crow was acquitted Tuesday of stalking the Grammy-winning singer.It took less than three hours for the New York jury to find Ambrose Kappos innocent of tailing Crow and harassing her family over the course of a year.Kappos, who had been discharged from the Navy in the wake of the Crow allegations, emerged from court Tuesday a happy, and free, man."I am sorry about the misunderstanding, but that's all it was," he told reporters gathered outside the Manhattan Supreme Court building, where the trial began on Nov. 18."This could have been better handled if it was recognized for what it was--an honorable man trying to court a good woman, and a simple 'no thank you' from her or her duly or authorized agents would have been satisfactory," Kappos added.Prosecutors and Crow herself claimed Ambrose was a bona fide threat to the singer, but the jury evidently thought otherwise and sided with Kappos' version of events.Kappos, 38, was charged with misdemeanor stalking and felony burglary for allegedly approaching Crow and her entourage as she was ushered into a stretch limo prior to a Manhattan concert in October 2003. He also managed to elude security and slip into a private backstage area of Hammerstien Ballroom near Crow's dressing room at the same concert. The charges carried a maximum sentence of seven years in state prison.But during the trial, Kappos' attorney, Stan Hickman, portrayed the onetime Navy SEAL as a groupie, not a stalker.Kappos' mother, who attended the trial and spoke to reporters after the verdict was read Tuesday, agreed, saying her son "just wanted to get to meet" Crow. But, she did admit that Kappos had a "kooky way of doing it."During testimony last week, Crow took the witness stand and said she was "scared" and "alarmed" by Kappos, and that his presence backstage at her gig gave her "pause." "It made me feel creeped out," she added. She also said she was upset that Kappos tracked down her family in an attempt to get to her.Hickman, however, claimed the singer was never in any real danger.During cross-examination, Hickman pressed Crow on the fact that Kappos never contacted her directly and reminded the jury that his client had not committed any violent acts against the singer.Kappos, meanwhile, said that two unhappy marriages and other emotional problems might have contributed to his unhealthy and, in his words, "delusional" infatuation with Crow.After the trial ended, Kappos joked to reporters: "Clearly there was no telepathy [between him and Crow]."

Rebelgirl 1 Report post Posted September 17, 2005 http://today.reuters.com/news/newsArticle....sticNews&stor... Armstrong rules out return to competitive cycling Fri Sep 16, 2005 1:09 AM ET NEW YORK (Reuters) - Worn down by doping scandals an exhausted Lance Armstrong said on Thursday he had decided against a return to competitive cycling. Angry over recent doping allegations that have appeared in the French sports daily L'Equipe, the seven-times Tour de France winner said recently he might return to racing, the accusations out of France having awoken his competitive side. But as the doping controversy continued to swirl on Thursday, Armstrong who turns 34 on Sunday, dismissed any thought of a comeback, saying he will stay retired. "I'm happy with the way my career ended. I'm not going back," Armstrong was quoted in USA Today. "I'm sick of this. "I opened it back up because in my heart it seemed like the right answer. But now I know I couldn't go to France and get a fair shake on the road, in doping control or the hotels." Armstrong was thrust into the center of another doping scandal last month after L'Equipe reported it had proof that six of Armstrong's urine samples collected on the 1999 Tour de France showed traces of the banned substance EPO (erythropoietin). There were no tests to detect EPO, a drug that increases the level of red blood cells and endurance, in 1999. However, samples from the 1999 Tour de France were kept and have been recently retested by a laboratory outside Paris. Armstrong, who survived cancer, has steadfastly denied ever taking performance-enhancing drugs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BobbyD 2 Report post Posted September 21, 2005 (People.com)How Lance Proposed to SherylWednesday Sep 21, 2005 3:00pm ESTWhen Sheryl Crow sashayed into Versace's grand relaunch party in London on Monday, the singer couldn't help but gush about the moment fiancé Lance Armstrong popped the question. "He rowed me out into the middle of a lake in the mountains and asked me to get married," Crow, 43, told PEOPLE. "It was very romantic." She also showed off her huge platinum-set diamond ring that Armstrong, the 34-year-old Tour de France champ, gave to her. "He picked out the ring himself and had it designed. It's absolutely gorgeous," said Crow, adding that they're already planning a spring wedding, likely in the U.S. Armstrong, appearing on The Oprah Winfrey Show Tuesday, said that his proposal was more spur-of-the-moment than he expected. "We took this boat out to the middle of the lake, and this is one of these little fishing boats with the motor behind going," he said. "It ran out of gas in the middle of the lake, and so I thought, you know, we're stuck here. I may as well ask her now." The couple both said the moment was picture perfect, but there was one thing missing, said Armstrong: "I felt bad…. I didn't have the ring with me." Crow didn't seem to miss the bauble in the moment, but displayed the diamond on the air Tuesday. "It's a cushion cut. I think it's six carats. He definitely pulled out all the stops," she told Winfrey. When asked by PEOPLE whether their wedding will be a big party or private affair? "Don’t know yet," Crow said. "I think probably a pretty big do." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rebelgirl 1 Report post Posted September 22, 2005 http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/sfgate/indexd?blogid=7 Lance Armstrong's Fishing Lake Proposal AP / Tammie Arroyo Retired cycling hero Lance Armstrong proposed to rocker Sheryl Crow in Idaho while the couple were stranded on a lake. The sports star hadn't planned to ask his girlfriend to marry him when they set out on a boat trip, but the opportunity was too great to miss when the vessel ran out of gas. He recalls, "We were in Sun Valley, Idaho, which is a good place. We're on this lake and these people let us go out to their lake cabin and we took this boat out to the middle of the lake this is one of those little fishing boats with the motor behind. "It ran out of gas in the middle of the lake, so I thought, 'You know, we're stuck here, I may as well ask her now.' "I felt bad (because) I didn't have the ring with me but it was too perfect, too beautiful." Crow admits she was stunned by the proposal, but didn't hesitate to say yes. Speaking on yesterday's "Oprah" show, she revealed, "He definitely pulled out all the stops ... He was being really romantic." Crow insists she'd be foolish to turn down the chance to marry Armstrong: "There are too many things to name that I love about him -- he's gorgeous and he's funny and he's smart and he's a fantastic dad. Gosh, I just love him." The couple plan to wed next spring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
