Chris Brown (Maybe) Disses Drake Again in New "Celebration" Track With Game
9 months ago
Chris Brown is apparently using a new collaboration with Game and other artists to slam hip-hop (and possibly romantic) rival Drake … what else is new.
On Drake’s recent collaboration with 2 Chainz, “No Lie”, he raps, “If I take you out of the picture/I know real real gon’ miss ya/No lie, no lie, no lie-ee-i-ee-i.”
Now, in what would have to be quite a coincidence, Chris borrows those lyrics to hammer Drake on a track with Game and Wiz Khalifa called “Celebration.”

Taylor Swift to Set Digital Sales Record
10 months ago
We still may not be sure about whom Taylor Swift is singing in her latest single, “We Are Never Getting Back Together,” but we can be certain of one thing:
It’s already a huge hit.
The track is on pace for 600,000 downloads in its opening week, meaning it will challenge Flo Rida (and “Right Round”) for the largest debut of all-time and shatter the female record-holder: Lady Gaga with “Born This Way.”
The song also broke in to the Billboard Hot 100 at number-72, but its initial seven days of sales, combined with its overwhelming airplay, make it a strong favorite to hold the top spot later

Fresh off dyeing his hair blonde, the former American Idol runner-up and rumored future American Idol judge has freshly inked his forearm, getting a new tattoo that reads “Musica Delenit Bestiam Feram.

Kelly Clarkson delivered the ever-rare Britney Spears live cover last night in concert, belting out a rendition of the pop queen’s “Till the World Ends.”
The inaugural American Idol winner has been performing covers of other artists, a la Taylor Swift, during her Stronger tour, and Brit Brit was on tap.
“I thought this would be a fun one you’ll enjoy,” she told an L.A. crowd before singing. “I know you know this song … I expect everybody on these ‘Os!’”

1 year ago
It’s not exactly far-fetched when you think about it, but did you know that Kat Von D once tattooed the Mother Monster? Well, now you do – and can watch it!
The L.A. Ink finale was last, but far more noteworthy than anything that took place on the show is this footage of Kat Von D and Lady Gaga back in 2008.
You know Gaga wasn’t a global superstar just yet because she’s still wearing pants (albeit metallic blue spandex ones) as she converses with the tattoo artiste:
“You’re from New York, right?” Von D asks. “Yeah, I was born and raised in Manhattan, and I

1 year ago
With a new album on the way, Joe Jonas is about to embark on a solo career.
But an insider tells Us Weekly the singer wants to make sweet music again with another famous artist: ex-girlfriend Taylor Swift!
Might we soon witness the return of Toe?
“He wants her back,” the tabloid claims. “He wants to show her he’s a changed man and would love to see what’s possible between them.”
Joe, of course, infamously dumped Taylor via a 27-second phone call in 2008, which led to back-and-forth barbs by the artists in multiple singles.
Swift recounted the split in “Forever and Always” and then went

Michael Pedicone is no longer the drummer for My Chemical Romance, a decision the band arrived at today after the musician allegedly stole a bunch of items from the group following its show in Washington on Thursday night.
A message on the artists’ website said Pedicone was caught “red handed” and that he even confessed to police later that evening.
“The band has no intention of pressing charges or taking this matter any further than we have to. We just want him out of our lives,” My Chemical Romance members wrote.
No word yet on just what Pedicone ganked,

Tiffany and Debbie Gibson announce joint retro tour
2 years ago
[HMG Celebrity News] – The 80‘s was a decade of strange people, bad music and even worse hair, and now two of its stars want to prove that – Tiffany and Debbie Gibson are going back on the road.
“We want to journey through the ’80s and all the artists who influenced us,” Tiffany told the Post.
Bitter rivals in their prime the two girls are now mulling a tour that will showcase their own hits, plus covers of songs by talented people like Stevie Nicks, Reba McIntyre and even Guns N’ Roses.
They’ve also promised a few Broadway tunes just in case that list didn’t cause enough pain.

Britney Spears-Nicki Minaj Tour: It’s On!
2 years ago
After extensive talks, Nicki Minaj has officially joined Britney Spears’ upcoming summer tour, replacing Enrique Iglesias as the star’s opening act.
A source close to the 26-year-old Minaj confirmed to E! that she’s aboard and tour organizers expect the tandem should be a big concert draw.
More so than the Spanish crooner who pulled out last month? Probably.
1-2 PUNCH: Two Femme Fatales. One horribly pricey ticket.
Indeed, the choice of the Trinidad and Tobago-born hip-hop diva is probably for the best, given how foolish Iglesias’ camp just made Ms. Spears look.

Happy Birthday, Justin Timberlake!
2 years ago
Justin Timberlake, who turns 30 today, has done the impossible.
His career is so impressive and wide-ranging that one almost forgets it began with *NSync. Since those days, he’s won six Grammy Awards as well as two Emmys.
A pair of successful solo albums, numerous collaborations with other artists and a versatile foray into acting have proven his talents and established him as a star.
As far as his personal life goes, The Social Network star remains refreshingly guarded, though he has dated Britney Spears, Cameron Diaz and Jessica Biel.
Among others. Not a bad track record.

Matty B Does Britney Spears

Matty B is eight years old. Eight.
Kid likes to rap/sing covers of other artists’ material, and is actually petty decent considering the number of years he’s been alive don’t exceed one digit.
His latest track, a rendition of Britney Spears’ hit “Hold It Against Me,” serves as a homage to the pop princess and a message to Matty B’s own haters.
Defiantly posting some negative comments his efforts have received online, the youngster vows, while frolicking in some freshly-fallen snow, to sing on …
Don’t hold it against Matty that he’s eight years old and
