VIDEO: Were American Idol fans really shocked by Adam Lambert’s racy performance over the weekend?

American Idol-created pop star Adam Lambert appeared on the American Music Awards to perform a flat version of the not-so-awesome title track from his recently released debut CD, For Your Entertainment (that’s the one with the cover photo of Glambert looking like a blue-haired disco alien).

However, Lambert may have surprised some Idol fans with his performance, one laced with sexually suggestive dance moves and same-sex kisses.

Well, Lambert tried to surprise viewers with these cheap tactics, but Continue reading »

Break-Up: Aerosmith Worried About Tyler’s Sobriety

Published November 19th, 2009 by Karen

ABOVE: After 40 years, Aerosmith’s train may have finally stopped rolling. Will fans accept a new singer?

It has been a dramatic few weeks for Aerosmith, to say the least.

After a seemingly jinxed tour plagued by injury, both common (twisted knee) and bizarre (singer dances right off the front of the stage), the band recently made headlines as guitarist Joe Perry announced that singer Steven Tyler had left the band. Set to celebrate its 40th anniversary, the band is now faced with the challenge of finding a new singer.

Of course, break-ups are never quite that simple.

Tyler then shocked everyone as he Continue reading »

Bob Dylan Christmas Music Video Debuts, Confuses

Published November 17th, 2009 by Karen

ABOVE: Bob Dylan’s strangely chipper new Christmas album might be the weirdest thing he’s done since appearing in this creepy lingerie ad.

With a Christmas album, Christmas in the Heart, that hit stores just in time for Halloween, it seems fitting that Bob Dylan has released the CD’s debut music video just in time for another non-Christmas holiday: Thanksgiving.

The new clip for “Must Be Santa” features Dylan leading the holiday polka at a swanky baby-boomer house party while wearing a variety of hats (including a mad hatter-esque top hat and Santa hat, both of which apparently have Jennifer Aniston wigs sewn inside). Continue reading »
