The ‘Glee’ Cast Gets “Laryngitis,” But Still Manages To Cover U2
Tue May 11 2010 by Becky Bain
Remember when Glee used to feature just one or two song performances per episode, filling the majority of its running time with witty dialogue and captivating character development? Wait, Glee never did that. Our bad.
Five fairly randomly-picked songs appear on tonight's episode titled "Laryngitis," including hits by U2, Rick Springfield, Brandy and Monica and two Broadway classics. Jump below for your song spoiler. More »
Lady Gaga Is One Influential Person According To ‘Time’ Magazine And Cyndi Lauper
Thu Apr 29 2010 by Becky Bain
Lady Gaga not only made Time's 2010 list of the 100 Most Influential People, she landed the cover, standing in between soccer star Didier Drogba and former President Clinton. We really expected Bill Clinton to be a little bit more excited to be placed next to a hot lady wearing a bra made of sparklers, but we'll chalk his indifferent expression up to the fact that they weren't photographed in the same room at the same time. Check out an additional pic from inside the mag, as well as a few fond words from Gaga's MAC Viva Glam buddy Cyndi Lauper. More »
The Morning Mix: Britney Spears Is Single Again, Ya’ll

Did You Hear?
:: Britney Spears and her agent/boyfriend Jason Trawick have called it quits after a year of dating. Now Music's Sexiest Star can play the field—go get 'em, girl! Just stay away from paparazzi, anyone named Jason, or wannabe rappers. [E! Online]
:: Gwen Stefani rocks the cover of InStyle, and discusses her fashion line. She does not, however, talk about being the hottest 40-year old in the world. That's where we come in. This mama of two is fine. [Just Jared]
:: There's one person who isn't calling Lady Gaga's telephone—visionary director Michel Gondry is decidedly not interested in directing a Gaga video. Ever. Ouch. [True/Slant]
:: A comprehensive list of all the delicious foodstuffs musical acts sing about—and the restaurants, cafes and bars they should open in their band's name. [Flavorwire]
:: Bret Michaels says there was nothing weird about recording a song with Miley Cyrus. He probably doesn't think a bus full of skanky fame whores competing for the love of a washed up rock star is anything to worry about, either. [Pop Eater]
After the jump: celebrate St. Patty's Day with one of pop's favorite Irish bands. More »

After all the press coverage and buildup over the past two weeks, the 25th anniversary update of "We Are The World" finally premiered Friday during the opening of the 2010 Winter Olympics.

Fri Jan 29 2010 by Robbie Daw
Now that we've thrown our money into the office Grammy pool for who will clinch Best New Artist, Song and Record Of The Year (not to mention which artists will walk away a golden phonograph in the Pop categories), there's just one more loose end to tie up: Album Of The Year. In the E.N.D., will it be fearlessness, fame or fierceness that wins out?

Mon Dec 28 2009 by Becky Bain
Kelly Clarkson seems to have wrapped up her All I Ever Wanted Tour with one heck of a performance. A trove of new live Kelly recordings (including several new songs) is up, and now it's pretty much impossible not to be thrilled about the potential of her recording a new album. She's due to tour well into the new year, but for now, check out these first hints of her new direction — if nothing else, you have to respect anyone who writes a song for no other good reason than "I'm a nerd Twilight fan." Plus her cover of U2's "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For."

The Golden Globes Are All Ears For ‘Glee’
Tue Dec 15 2009 by Robbie Daw
Fox’s hit high school show choir series Glee may be on hiatus until April, but the love for Finn, Rachel, Kurt and and the rest of the gang of musical outcasts won’t be dying down anytime soon. Nominees for the 67th Golden Globe Awards were announced this morning, and Glee hit a high note by sweeping up the most TV nods with four.
The hour-long program nabbed nominations for Best Television Series—Musical Or Comedy, Best Performance By An Actress In A Television Series—Musical Or Comedy (for Lea Michele), Best Performance By An Actor In A Television Series—Musical Or Comedy (Matthew Morrison) and Best Performance By An Actress In A Supporting Role In A Series, Mini-Series Or Motion Picture Made For Television (Jane Lynch).
Kudos also to Yeah Yeah Yeahs frontwoman Karen O for snagging a nomination in the Best Original Score—Motion Picture category, for Where The Wild Things Are. This comes only a week after she earned a belated Grammy nod.
Catch the rest of the Golden Globe music nominees after the jump. More »
Adam Lambert And Rihanna Glam Up The Vevo Launch
Wed Dec 9 2009 by Robbie Daw
Last night’s New York City launch party for new online video hosting site Vevo boasted appearances by pop’s flashy elite. Mariah Carey, Rihanna, Adam Lambert, Sheryl Crow, Shania Twain, Bono, Lady Gaga and Pete Wentz all mingled at Skylight Studio with Google CEO Eric Schmidt and Interscope Records chief Jimmy Iovine.
Vevo, which is partly owned by music giants Universal Music Group and Sony Music Entertainment, hopes become the music video viewing destination online—the MTV for the iTunes generation, if you will. Theoretically, there will be no more YouTube-like slogging through clips of hamsters dancing around to “Since U Been Gone” or 12-year-olds doing cartwheels on their bed to “Big Pimpin’” while trying to find the artists’ actual videos.
