Chris Brown Billboard Music Awards Performance: "Fine China" and Kung Fu!
20 hours ago
Say what you will about Chris Brown, the man never phones in a live performance. Even when people are phoning in death threats to him the same day.
The singer turned in a high powered, feisty rendition of “Fine China” at the 2013 Billboard Music Awards last night, engaging in some Kung Fu acrobatics!
In a series of choreographed high flying kicks and punches, the 24-year-old R&B sensation pretended to knock down a crew of martial arts dancers.
He made quick work of them, too, unlike Frank Ocean or Drake.
Brown finished the performance with a series of impressive aerial

Chad Johnson to FBI: Find Sex Tape Leak!
4 months ago
Looks like the leak of the Chad Johnson sex tape was not Ocho’s doing.
Either that, or he’s going to great, devious lengths to cover his tracks, because the former NFL star is turning to the FBI for help, according to a TMZ report.
The footage, which found its way online Christmas Day (nice stocking stuffer), shows Eight-Five in a Florida hotel room, putting it to an unknown female.
Chad Johnson, who says the sex tape was filmed 3-4 years ago, is reportedly furious, and believes the video was mysteriously hacked from his phone.
You know. Kinda like Mila Kunis and Scarlett

Hope Solo Calls Out Brandi Chastain: Shut Up!
9 months ago
Remember that whole Olympic spirit thing? Someone should tell Hope Solo about it.
The U.S. Soccer Team’s starting goalie may have been responsible for a shutout against against Colombia yesterday, but the former Dancing with the Stars contestant didn’t celebrate much afterward.
She slammed former World Cup hero Brandi Chastain instead.
Displeased with Chastain’s analysis as an announcer, specifically her criticism of defender Rachel Buehler, Solo went off on a multiple-part Twitter rant against the retired player:
- “Its 2 bad we cant have commentators who better represents the team&knows
Kelly Clarkson Endorses Carrie Underwood for American Idol Judge
10 months ago
With the search for new American Idol judges on, Kelly Clarkson knows exactly who should get the gig.
Carrie Underwood!
“Didn’t she major in journalism or something?” Clarkson said to Us Weekly of her fellow former winner. “And she can have that face… that bluff face! She can put that on! She would be good.”
She’d be terrific. Underwood has the resume, and the charm and the personality, as evidenced by her CMA Awards hosting gigs.
But she also has the mammoth success and we can’t see her needing to take the job for any sort of career bump.
Still, it’s an intriguing idea, isn’t it? Would

Rihanna Posts Bikini Photos, Announces Clothing Line
10 months ago
Oh, the sexy irony.
Rihanna posted new bikini pictures of herself and assistant Melissa Forde over the weekend, during the same time period when she also announced her first-ever clothing one, one we presume will cover a lot more of the body than the outfits donned by the singer in these photos:
I’ve been wanting to design my own collection for some time,” Rihanna said of the fashion endeavor, which will involve the company River Island and debut in 2013.
“River Island is the perfect partner for me to collaborate with and working with a British, family run business also really appealed

Charlie Sheen Quits Twitter: Warlock Peaces Out of Social Media With Inspirational Final Message
10 months ago
Making good on a promise he made not even 48 hours ago, Charlie Sheen has officially quit Twitter, leaving his 7.7 million followers emotionally reeling.
Fortunately, he departed with one final, inspiring Tweet:
“reach for the stars everyone. dogspeed cadre. c out.”
Sheen signed onto Twitter fairly recently in March 2011, after he was fired from Two and a Half Men and began lambasting his former bosses online.
He has been a regular tweeter ever since, offering sage-like pearls of wisdom to the general public and plugging his new show Anger Management.
It’s unclear why he decided to close

Rihanna Harper’s Bazaar Cover: Snake-Like!
10 months ago
Rihanna covers the new issue of Harper’s Bazaar and the star looks absolutely snake-like. Seriously. We are talking full-on reptilian up in here.
That or America’s Next Top Model-esque. You be the judge.
Perhaps the most surprising thing about the cover is not the getup itself, but the fact that unlike the vast majority of Rihanna pics, she’s clothed.
Seriously, when have you known her not to show skin?
Typically, our girl prefers scraps of cloth if she covers up at all, but here, she’s gone full-scale(y) coverage. And animal print. Bizarre even for Bazaar.
For anyone out there

Justin Bieber’s working vacation in Europe continued this weekend with a stop in Italy.
After nearly causing a riot in Norway, and then running into a glass wall during a Paris show, the teenage sensation calmed things down a bit during a concert in Milan. At one point he even broke out his guitar, sat on a stool and showed off his acoustic skills.
Watch him break down “As Long As You Love Me” in this video.

The Biebs also rocked and danced out like usual, of course. Below, we’ve got another sneak peek at another overseas performance

The Wanted to Rihanna: Collaborate With Us!

The Wanted might not have warmed to Christina Aguilera, or Britney Spears for that matter, but Rihanna is one star they’d love to meet/work with.
In an interview with Capital FM, the boy band continued their recent trend of weighing in on female pop stars by confessing their love for Rihanna.
The group praised RiRi’s collaboration with Coldplay and say they feel she could really bring “that Bajan side” to the band in a joint effort.

Kate Gosselin has scarcely been in the news lately. Thank goodness.
Don’t worry, though: even with TLC mercifully cancelling Kate Plus 8 last year, the attention-starved mother of eight isn’t about to rest on her laurels.
She’s blogging like a madman for CouponCabin (dot com) and longing for the morning that someone will call and offer her brood a new reality show.
Don’t hold your breath, Kate. But happy 37th birthday babe.
It seems like only yesterday that Kate was burning up our TVs with her weekly emasculation of Jon … then burning up our site with her marital problems.
Memories.

You can follow this link for the official “Princess of China” video and see their live performance below, which Coldplay followed up with their mega-hit, “Paradise.”
