THE SUNDAY TIMES
The girl most likely: She's got five houses, is married to Sting and has all the tantric sex and designer clothes she wants - it's easy to feel jealous of Trudie Styler. But what about her career, businesses and fundraising? Viv Groskop reckons that she deserves it...

THE MISSOULIAN
Let's hear it from the band: Sting is going back to his roots, stripping it all down to the basics. The onetime English teacher turned rock icon turned castle-dwelling Jaguar-shilling world-musician, whose diet and sex life and personal politics have become standard cultural knowledge, is going back to school - or so he would have us believe...

THE WEST AUSTRALIAN
Bevan Eakins charts the tidal wave of compassion which unleashed Sting's tsunami benefit concert at Leeuwin. Three days after the Indian Ocean tsunami had claimed 290,000 lives in South-East Asia and Sri Lanka, international rock star Sting and his family were enjoying a Christmas break on a ski slope somewhere in Europe. Sting's tour manager of 15 years, William Francis, telephoned the former front man for Police and said a request had come from Margaret River to hold a tsunami benefit concert. Would he do it? "Yes," was the unequivocal reply...

THE NEW STRAITS TIMES
Sacred Star: It pays to be patient. And a good dose of perseverance helps to get things done, too. Several calls to Singapore concert promoters to interview their 'stars on the road' finally came to fruit. There had been no go with the Rolling Stones, two years ago, and the same went for the Eagles, late last year. Time constraints ruled the road...

BASS PLAYER
For Sting's technical assistant Danny Quatrochi, 'Synchronicity' is more than just a song he helps stage every night. A chance call in '79 offering him a job as a drum tech for a new band, the Police, led him to form a 25-year relationship with that group's bass-playing pop superstar. Since 1980's 'Zenyatta Mondatta' (A&M), Danny has worked exclusively with Sting and his gear for recording and touring...

CNN TALK ASIA
The 52-year old rocker has been at the top of the music industry for over two decades. There are few other songwriters who've composed as many hits, or croon as beautifully as Sting. Born Gordon Matthew Sumner, Sting grew up in a rough neighborhood in Northern England. He says he always loved music and dabbled in it a bit, but it was the formation of "The Police" in 1977 that changed his life forever.The group was considered one of the most progressive and sophisticated of its time...

THE DAILY TELEGRAPH
"I'm happy to make people pay up...£ Film producer Trudie Styler talks to Christa D'Souza about life and love with Sting, jokes that backfire and her passion for her latest fundraising project. There are all sorts of ways to spend a sunny summer's day in London. I'm spending this one with Trudie Styler, looking at a picture of a dump site in Equador. "I'll tell you, this one I went to made me dry retch," says Styler, who has just been appointed national ambassador for Unicef UK's End Child Exploitation fundraising appeal...

THE BOSTON GLOBE
Two strong voices share one stage - Annie Lennox and Sting discuss their tour together. Sting and Annie Lennox, besides sharing British roots, are two of the most enduring artists of their generation. Each started in a band that sold millions of records - Sting with the Police, Lennox with Eurythmics - then both left for solo careers that soared as well. Each became beloved stars on MTV as Sting sang "I want my MTV" while Lennox became a synth-pop queen. Each later developed a social conscience that made other performers understand that record sales and video exposure need not be the only goals of the music business...

THE DAILY MAIL
He's the ordinary bloke (with seven homes and a butler). The Tantric sex guru (who adores lapdancers). The eco-warrior (who promotes gas guzzlers). As he finally admits he's fooled his fans, who IS the real Sting? Sting's favourite home (out of the seven he owns) is The Lake House in Wiltshire, an outstandingly beautiful Elizabethan manor house made from local limestone and flint, with mullioned windows and decorative gables...

THE SUNDAY TIMES
Sting: the sex wasn't tantric, it was frantic. EVERYONE knows that Sting practises epic bouts of tantric sex with his wife Trudie Styler because they have often boasted about it. But it seems there has been some mistake. What he really meant was "frantic" sex. In an interview to be broadcast next week on BBC1, Sting confesses that the whole story of how he used yoga to achieve prolonged states of ecstasy has been "a joke"...
