NATALIE COLE - COLE TO SET CHRISTMAS ALIGHT AT SHOPPING MECCA

NATALIE COLE is set to bounce back from a summer health scare by wishing Los Angeles shoppers a merry Christmas.
The veteran soul star, 58, was rushed to hospital with kidney failure in September (08) and has only just returned to the road with a dialysis machine by her side.
But Cole, who cancelled a handful of shows due to her illness, is committed to her star billing at a free festive concert at Los Angeles shopping mecca The Grove on Sunday (23Nov08).
The Unforgettable singer, who is also battling Hepatitis C, will join comic Jon Lovitz and all-star group Band From TV, which features actors Hugh Laurie, James Denton and Teri Hatcher, at the musical Christmas lighting ceremony.
