MELUA TO BREAK UNDERWATER RECORD

Brave British pop singer KATIE MELUA is preparing to perform at the bottom of the North Sea in her bid to set a new world record for the world's deepest underwater concert.

Katie Melua performs at the first of two sold out concerts held at the Heineken Music Hall. Holland, Amsterdam - 21.02.06

The bizarre gig will kick off tomorrow (02OCT06) on an oil rig more than 300 feet (91 metres) below the surface.

The show will be watched by an audience of rig workers on the Statoil Troll platform in the North Sea, Europe's biggest off-shore gas field.

The intrepid star says, "I can't wait. If it comes off it will be a world record for the deepest ever underwater gig, which will be pretty cool."

Her spokeswoman adds, "Katie and her band have undergone full medical examinations and will undertake strict emergency training prior to the event."

A Guinness World Records adjudicator will attend the gig, which will be broadcast on Norwegian TV.
