In other news, Sheryl Crow is being slammed by animal rights group for performing at rodeo. The group says horses are being abused.

Sheryl Crow, hailed as a champion of wild horses that roam the range in the West, is being criticized by a national animal rights group.

The “All I Wanna Do” singer plans to donate some proceeds from her July 22 concert at a Wyoming rodeo to a wild-horse protection group that’s suing the government to halt a big mustang roundup in Nevada.

But Illinois-based Showing Animals Respect and Kindness is calling on the Colorado-based Cloud Foundation to reject the donation. It’s accusing Crow of hypocrisy for performing at Cheyenne Frontier Days where it claims wild horses are abused.

Cloud Foundation officials say Crow is a true champion of wild horses, and the criticism is unjustified because rodeos are prohibited from using mustangs removed from the range by the government.

Jennifer Aniston celebrates her 41st birthday early with Courteney Cox, David Arquette, Sheryl Crowe and of course Gerard Butler!

Gerard arrived a couple of days after the other guests but they all celebrated Jennifer’s birthday at “Aquos” restaurant, part of the Palmilla complex.

Later Aniston and Butler went their own suite a short distance away from the main house.

Gerard can be seen the next morning wearing a Trilby and holding a bottle of “Voss Water”.

They later joined all the guests at the main beachside villa.

I’ve got tons of pictures from Jennifer’s vacation below – check them out!

In his upcoming book, Lance Armstrong reveals that he and ex fiancee Sheryl Crow split in 2006 because she wanted to have children — and he didn’t.

“She wanted marriage, she wanted children; and not that I didn’t want that, but I didn’t want that at that time because I had just gotten out of a marriage, I’d just had kids [Luke, 9, and twins Grace and Bella, 7],” Armstrong says Lance (out in July), as excerpted by the New York Post. “Yet we’re up against her biological clock — that pressure is what cracked it.”

Armstrong, 37, says that he and Crow, 47, even went to a counselor, “but really there’s no way to counsel that situation.”

“If somebody wants a child — man, that’s the greatest gift you can give to a woman — … who are you to stand there and say I don’t want one?” he says. “So we were at different points in our lives. We were not compatible on that issue.”

Adds Armstrong (who announced in December that he is expecting a baby with girlfriend Anna Hansen): “I felt like I wasn’t ready … I would have been in the future, but not then.”

In May 2007, the unwed Crow adopted a two-week-old boy, Wyatt.

Of motherhood, Crow told Usmagazine.com this past February, “It’s great! I love every minute of it.”

“The best part is all of it,” she added. “I would love more kids! I don’t know about 14 kids, but I’d love more!”
