You can probably guess who dominated this year’s Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA) in Hong Kong. Yes — it was PSY, King of YouTube. But as far as performances go, Adam Lambert brought the house down performing “Whataya Want From Me” and “Trespassing” in a seriously fierce black-and-yellow spiky leather jacket. Good for rocking out — not so good for hugs. More »

Most times, when people break into your house, they had some ill intentions. But Ke$ha? She just wants to play music with you! The “C’mon” songbird dropped by the UK’s Graham Norton Show to perform “Die Young,” and afterward recounted her tales of breaking into celebrities’ homes — including Prince, who was apparently playing guitar at the time. Also on the panel were Joan Rivers and Jake Gyllenhaal, yet K$ managed to hog the spotlight, and she either genuinely doesn’t know that her album Warrior comes out on Tuesday or she just likes to play dumb. Catch her performance of “Die Young” below. More »

They Will Always Love Her

It’s taken quite awhile for CBS’ We Will Always Love You: A Grammy Salute to Whitney Houston to come around, given that the late great diva passed away way back in February. But it’s never too late to honor such a legend, as stars like Celine Dion, Usher, and Jennifer Hudson gathered to honor to the diva’s most iconic tracks. Watch the rest of the clips (and Britney Spears‘ spoken tribute) after the jump! More »

Well, it doesn’t get much more precious than this. We’d be pretty into American Idol‘s Phillip Phillips performing Oasis and Michael Jackson covers even if he wasn’t accompanied by a bunch of kids from Staten Island’s PS22, and even if it wasn’t to benefit the Red Cross and Hurricane Sandy victims. But since it was, all the better. Catch two of Phillip’s own tracks, “Man on the Moon” and “Gone, Gone, Gone,” along with “Thriller” after the jump. More »

Sold-Out Show Like Lady Gaga

What’s the deal with pop stars and cake lately? First Rihanna rapped about “Birthday Cake” when it’s not even her birthday, then Miley Cyrus smashed the stuff all over Borgore because “bitches love cake.” Now Lady Gaga is performing her under-the-radar track “Cake Like Lady Gaga” at her Rio de Janeiro show. Watch some incredibly shaky fan-shot footage of the show above — if you have a strong stomach against motion sickness. More »

There’s not much chance Katy Perry will be voting Romney. After debuting her ballot dress (with Obama’s bubble filled in) a couple weeks ago, the “Wide Awake” singer appeared on the President’s behalf for a free show in Milwaukee, where she performed a cover of Al Green‘s “Let’s Stay Together” along with her own hits. And once again she was rocking a Barack-inspired dress, this time a blue one emblazoned with the word “Forward” (his campaign slogan, as well as Wisconsin’s state motto). More »

Big Willie's Still Got It!

Big Willie’s still got it! There might have been a melancholy note at Gabrielle Union‘s birthday party, since her Bring It On costar and Blaque member Natina Reed would have been celebrating her birthday the same weekend if not for a tragic hit-and-run accident that took her life. But Will Smith helped keep the mood light by performing a freestyle rap, goaded by Doug E. Fresh, who then joins in on the fun. Anyone who misses Will Smith the rapper, who went MIA sometime around 2005, should definitely check this out. More »
