Lady Gaga is big Japan — and pretty much everywhere else — having already been mobbed by little monsters outside of a Tokyo restaurant. Still, never a wallflower, the night-wedding diva was dressed to cause a scene as she departed from Narita International Airport, wearing a long black and white dress that bared more than its share of cleavage. AP’s Entertainer of the Year also tweeted out this message before taking off: “Bye bye Tokyo! I will miss you so! Aishite masu and Merry Christmas! You are my Asia no Engel + Litolu! Xoxox” (along with a photo of her own).

Lady Gaga Gets Mobbed In Tokyo (PHOTOS)
Thu Dec 22 2011 by Erika Brooks Adickman
Lady Gaga wasn’t just spotted leaving the Shabu Shabu restaurant earlier today in Tokyo — the pop star was flat out mobbed. Reportedly, Little Monsters were tipped off to Gaga’s whereabouts and camped out in the cold to see the recently named Entertainer Of The Year. (And judging by the “Marry The Night” singer’s blindingly gold getup, we don’t get the impression she was trying to slip away undetected.) Hopefully, a good dinner and signing autographs for screaming fans helps Gaga cope with her jet lag-induced insomnia. Speaking of sleep, is Lady Gaga’s outfit giving you sweet dreams or nightmares? Tell us below. More »

Thu Dec 22 2011 by Becky Bain
We've had the honor of Patrick Stump, Ellie Goulding, Skylar Grey and Oh Land treating us with their picks for the year's best music, and now Travie McCoy and Matt McGinley of Gym Class Heroes tell us which albums made their 2011 totally rock. It goes without saying that this year was a big one for Gym Class Heroes — after taking a break so that McCoy could drop his solo LP, Lazarus, the hip-pop-rap group returned to release The Papercut Chronicles II, scoring a Top 10 hit with their single "Stereo Hearts", which has a permanent spot on our stereo.

Emeli Sande: Watch Her ‘Our Version Of Events’ Album Documentary
Wed Dec 21 2011 by Robbie Daw
"Every song needs to be something I'm entirely proud of," says BRIT Critics' Choice Award winner Emeli Sande in a new documentary about her upcoming debut LP Our Version Of Events (out February 6 in the UK, and in June here). "It has to be, track for track, a classic album, whether people like it or not." That's a pretty high bar to set for oneself. But as you might have gleaned from our Popping Up feature on the Scottish singer-songwriter, she's certainly no slacker. Head below to watch Emeli discuss her early days in the music business, revisit her former high school and talk about working with Tinie Tempah.

Lady Gaga Most Overrated, Madonna Most Anticipated: ‘Billboard’ Readers Poll
Fri Dec 16 2011 by Robbie Daw
Out with the new and in with the, er, mature? Billboard turned the usual year-end list mania over to its readers via polls that asked them to have their say in such categories as Best Awards Show Performance (the winners: Rihanna and Britney Spears at the Billboard Music Awards), Best Festival Performance (Coldplay at Glastonbury), Hottest Couple (Jay-Z and Beyonce) and Biggest Controversy (Amy Winehouse's death). But the real eyebrow-raiser is the Most Overrated label being slapped on Lady Gaga.

Flo Rida And Sia Are “Wild Ones” On New Dance Track
Thu Dec 15 2011 by Becky Bain
We're thrilled that Sia has had a change of heart from when she previously said she was thinking about giving up music to become "a dog masseuse", as the Aussie singer-songwriter has been popping up all over the place. After working with Christina Aguilera (on Bionic and Burlesque, as well as on Xtina's upcoming LP and on The Voice), she appeared on David Guetta's "Titanium", and can be currently heard bubbling all over Flo Rida's new club banger "Wild Ones".

Best Music 2011: Skylar Grey Picks Her Favorite Album Of The Year
Thu Dec 15 2011 by Becky Bain
We've delighted in the best-of-2011 picks from Patrick Stump and Ellie Goulding, and now we're especially thrilled to share a guest contribution from the enigmatic, captivating singer-songwriter Skylar Grey. The "Invisible" woman has been anything but this year: she set up her debut album, (also called Invisible), went on tour with Bruno Mars, and lit up Lollapalooza twice — in her own set, and in a riveting Eminem performance. This year, she sang or wrote some of our favorite hooks, but Grey found herself hooked by an indie darling. Watch Skylar reveal her favorite album of the year below.

Demi Lovato Does Some Holiday Shopping (PHOTOS)
Wed Dec 14 2011 by Erika Brooks Adickman
Was Jingle Ball rocker Demi Lovato continuing to get into the holiday spirit by partaking in some last minute Christmas shopping yesterday? The Unbroken singer hit up Los Angeles’ Westside Pavilion with a gal pal — and judging by the Betsey Johnson and 7 For All Man Kind bags, it seems she did well. The fashionable pop star showed off her newly red locks with a Debbie Gibson-inspired hat, lace-up boots, a leather pleated skirt, tons of gold jewelry and a floral blazer. Are you loving Demi’s mix-and-clash look or is it too much for an afternoon at the mall? More »
Best Songs Of 2011: The Top 10 Pop Non-Singles Of The Year
Wed Dec 14 2011 by Robbie Daw
Sure, there have been a boatload of decent singles that made an impact both on the charts and in pop culture in 2011. But there were also plenty of outstanding tracks tucked away on your favorite pop artists' albums that never got their day in the sun. Sometimes it may seem like a no-brainer when choosing which track from an LP deserves an official single release — and sometimes artists and labels get it way wrong and overlook some of their best material.
We've rounded up what we consider to be 10 such tunes below. Our selection process was simple: they were all from albums that were released in 2011 or, at the very least, the tail-end of 2010, and they all had ample opportunity to be up for single consideration this year. Alas, these diamonds were left untouched by radio (this year, at least). More »
