Avril Lavigne And Brody Jenner: Together Again? (PHOTOS)

Tue Jan 31 2012 by Erika Brooks Adickman

Avril Lavigne was spotted leaving Koi restaurant in West Hollywood last night. Now, what the pop punkette wore and what she ate were far less exciting to us than who the Canadian chanteuse was seen leaving with: ex-boyfriend Brody Jenner. What the hell? When reports surfaced earlier this month that the celeb couple had called it quits, we pondered what would become of their complementary tattoos. Perhaps, the amicable breakup is still that and Brody was simply giving the X Factor performer a proper sendoff before her Black Star Japan tour or maybe there’s hope yet for these two kids. Avril fans, tell us: Do you think this romance is on the cusp of being rekindled? Tell us in the comments below, or on Facebook and Twitter. More »


Tattooed Pop Star Couples: 7 Infamous Post-Ink Breakups (PHOTOS)

Thu Jan 19 2012 by Erika Brooks Adickman

Perhaps the only thing greater than the love affair between musicians and tattoos is celebrity couples’ burning desire to get matching tattoos. When reports surfaced earlier this week that Avril Lavigne and Brody Jenner were (amicably) calling it quits, it occurred to us that the twosome is just the latest pop star couple whose complementary ink far outlasted the romance. So we decided to take a walk down memory lane and revisit all the pop star flames that proved less permanent than the artful illustrations on their body. Click through to for a tattooed trip through Splitsville: from Chris Brown and Rihanna to Britney and K-Fed — see if you remembered their indelible marks of devotion to one another. Then tell us (in the comments below or on Twitter and Facebook): Do you think these tattoos are romantic or regrettable? More »



Idolator’s 2011 Music Video Awards

Thu Dec 29 2011 by Becky Bain
Because there were so many music videos to emerge in 2011, we have to give props where props are due. As it would be impossible to simply call one music video the "Best Music Video of 2011," for the first time ever, we're naming winners in a bunch of categories based on the major themes we saw in this year's crop of clips. So, instead of one best music video of 2011, we've arrived at nine! See which videos really made a mark on 2011 below. More »

Avril Lavigne, Alanis Morissette And R. Kelly Perform On ‘The X Factor’

Wed Dec 21 2011 by Becky Bain
Last night on the final performance night of The X Factor, the Top 3 — Josh Krajcik, Melanie Amaro, and Chris Rene — got some all-star support for one of their numbers. Avril Lavigne stopped by to bust out her debut single "Complicated" with Chris, while Melanie teamed up with sea cap'n R. Kelly on his overly sentimental, incredibly overplayed "I Believe I Can Fly". Our favorite duet, though, had to be Josh singing alongside a sleek-haired Alanis Morissette, not just because "Uninvited" is the best song of the three (it clearly is), but because any excuse for Alanis to return to the stage should be celebrated. Watch all three performances below.

Britney Spears’ “How I Roll” Named #1 Song Of The Year By ‘Rolling Stone’

Wed Dec 21 2011 by Becky Bain
Rolling Stone's Rob Sheffield, who writes for the publication's Pop Life blog, gave his picks for the Top 25 Songs of 2011, and there are some real head-scratchers in this bunch: Adele's "Rolling In The Deep" didn't even make the Top 10, while Rebecca Black's "Friday" came in at #9?! And as much as we love Britney Spears' album cut "How I Roll" — which was honored as the top pick of the year — her official single "Till The World Ends" was still one of the 2011's best jams. (Personally, when it comes to non-singles from Femme Fatale, our fave was bonus track "He About To Lose Me".) Check out the full list below. More »

Rihanna Is The Most Talked-About Musician On Facebook

Fri Dec 9 2011 by Robbie Daw
Cranking out new music year after year has its advantages — mainly, it keeps an artist in the public eye. Take, for instance, Rihanna, who has topped a Facebook poll on the most talked-about music artists of 2011. (Guess its no wonder, then, why her latest album is titled Talk That Talk?) More »

Thu Dec 8 2011 by Erika Brooks Adickman

The city of brotherly love was all about the sisters last night, as our favorite ladies of pop helped Philadelphia get into the holiday spirit at Q102’s Jingle Ball concert. Christmas cookie decorator Avril Lavigne, Neon Hitch (who will be performing alongside Travie McCoy on Late Night tonight) and JoJo took the stage at the Wells Fargo Center, as well as Demi Lovato, who couldn’t help but gush over fellow performer Kelly Clarkson. The “Skyscraper” singer geeked out during Kelly’s set, tweeting not only the lyrics to “Mr. Know It All” but also “MY LIFE WOULD SUCK WITHOUT YOU!!!!!!! #fangirling”. Tell us which gal was best dressed below. More »
