A.M. A&E: Frank Gehry sued, Sylvester Stallone has a Death Wish, John Mayer loves food

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) is suing architect Frank Gehry. The university alleges that the Stata Center, which Gehry designed and which opened in 2004 features leaks, mold growing on its bricks, and snow and ice falling from its oddly shaped walls.

• Rocky Balboa himself might be stepping into Charles Bronson's shoes for a remake of the 1974 vigilante flick Death Wish.

• Singer Britney Spears has been ordered to pay ex-husband Kevin Federline's legal bill stemming from their divorce.

• It looks like Radiohead's new album wasn't as successful as previously thought. Reports indicate that three out of every five people who downloaded In Rainbows didn't pay a cent for it. Cheapskates.

• Pop troubadour John Mayer is considering a career change: from doe-eyed singer/songwriter to, er, food blogger.

• In today's National Post: Bob Thompson talks to the Coen Brothers.
