June 18, 2010 – Let’s face it, most people don’t change unless they have to. For Slash his big lifestyle switch came after he lost his mother to lung cancer. 
June 18, 2010 – It seems with every post Perez Hilton is making more enemies but this time he may be in real hot water. The blogger posted a picture of 17-year-old Miley Cyrus supposedly without underwear (turns out the pics were fake) that could potentially be considered child pornography. 
June 18, 2010 – Bryan Adams does not want his music performed on Glee but Coldplay, after initially saying no, has finally caved and will let the popular musical TV program use their tunes. 
June 18, 2010 – You can say a lot of things about Adam Lambert but calling him boring just doesn’t work. His debut album ‘For Your Entertainment’ juggles as much inspiration from the seventies as it does on current musical playgrounds. 
June 17, 2010 - How one looks at sexuality can change with the arrival of a child. Though many things went topsy turvy for Christina Aguilera after having her son Max, the singer maintains that she’s still the same sexual being she was before being a mother.
June 15, 2010 – I wonder if Coldplay is feeling a little pressure as they head into the home stretch of finishing their new album? The last project 'Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends’ (the dumbest album title in history), from 2008, sold 8.1 million copies worldwide. 
June 15, 2010 – Seems like Shakira is dangling carrots! The singer says even though she has no plans on posing nude she still believes there could be a change of plans someday. 
June 14, 2010 – Fergie says there will be lots of time for kids but, for now, her life circles around husband and actor Josh Duhamel and her band Black Eyed Peas. “Everyone tries to rush you into everything in the press these days,” say the singer, “but for me right now it’s all about Black Eyed Peas – there’s no room in my schedule to have a child.” 
June 16, 2010 – There’s always been an understated value to everything that Sade does and sameness to her entire repertoire. That quality of old wine has served the singer/band well… until now. Unlike Norah Jones who has, at least, tried to mix-up-the-pot, Sade really needs to stop wearing the same dress to every party. |
Alison Krauss Quiet on Second Duo Album with Robert Plant Again, it’s produced by T-Bone Burnett and according to Krauss, "Will be different, as if we hadn't made the first" she said, "I love being in the world of the unknown.” Last January Krauss said that the project was in the pre-production phase.

More Proof That Zeppelin is Dead - Plant & Krauss Record Again Ken Irwin of Rounder Records says, "Alison and Robert have been in the studio for about two weeks and although we haven't heard any of the music, we've been hearing good things from the musicians.” T Bone Burnett who joined the pair on stage at the Grammy’s is back as musical director and producer. Word is he will again tour the pair possibly in 2010. Irwin says, "We set our release dates when we get all the pieces in place and at this point, we don't have any yet.” Rumor has the album coming out late this year or early next. Irwin also put to rest the rumor of a Robert Plant and Alison Krauss DVD from the first tour, "There are no plans for a DVD at this point.” – by Kari Graham |

Robert Plant & Alison Krauss Get 5 Grammy’s Interestingly, Plant won two previous Grammy’s before the ceremony but never as a member of Zeppelin. The evening started with a performance by U2 whick clearly seemed lip-synched but unlike her crappy pre-taped Super Bowl anthem Jennifer Hudson brought many fans to tears and appeared to sing live. The Oscar winning actress also won her first ever Grammy for ‘Best R&B Album.’ "I want to thank my family in heaven and those who are with me today," said Hudson, and accepting the award from Whitney Houston who seemed to have a learning disability. When taking the stage Houston’s voice sounded rough and the singer had problems putting her thoughts together. Just before the show rumours flew like firecrackers that Chris Brown had assaulted girlfriend Rihanna. No one seemed to know for sure if Brown was in custody but by shows end most of the ugly rumours were confirmed with charges against the singer. Performances by Paul McCartney with Foo Fighters Dave Grohl on drums scored high points while Justine Timberlake’s lack of musical prowess was mostly embarrassing while singing next to Al Green. The stinky factor was pale in comparison to Stevie Wonder sharing the stage with the Jonas Brothers – What was he thinking? Rapper Lil Wayne won four Grammys, Duffy won a Grammy for ‘Best Pop Vocal Album’ for ‘Rockferry.’ Coldplay won three Grammy’s while Joe Satriani was probably punching the wall. He is seeking legal action for plaigerism against the band. Coldplay’s ‘Viv La Vida’ was a huge hit last year. English singer Adele saved us all from the Jonas Brothers being named ‘Best New Artist’ she graciously accepted the award. – by Kari Graham |

Where’s My Teeth – The Grammys - All Live? My Ass! TV tried to make us believe that Beyonce actually washed her hair with L’oreal. Does she even touch her own hair? A couple of weeks ago I thought Jennifer Hudson, the nice comeback kid that she is was telling the truth. She, in a side-winding way, lied about singing the national anthem at the Super Bowl. Maybe she justified it since everyone else lied as well. More |
