Tue Feb 7 2012 by Becky Bain
Dance music didn't have its own category at The Grammys until 2003, and now the little genre that could appears to have been fully embraced by the Recording Academy. The 2012 Grammy Awards will include "a special segment spotlighting dance/electornica music for the first time ever." The lineup for this special performance? Deadmau5, David Guetta, Chris Brown, Lil Wayne and the Foo Fighters. Wait, what? More »

Did You Hear?
:: Nick Carter gave a beautiful tribute to his sister during one of his tour stops in New York City, although he was noticeably absent from her funeral that took place over the weekend. Nick released a statement saying, "I wanted to be at my sister's funeral, but my family has always had a complicated dynamic." [E! Online]
:: Adele will be making her comeback performance at the Grammys this Sunday and one person in particular is suggesting that the British pop star make the best of it. Noel Gallagher firmly believes her success in the music industry will not last much longer. "I feel sorry for girls in the music industry," he said. "They do have a very short shelf life." At least that's nicer than what Karl Lagerfeld said about her. [Spinner]
:: Turns out Madonna's much younger boy toy Brahim Zaibat was one of her backup dancers during her Super Bowl Halftime Show. [Pink Is The New Blog]
:: Are Rihanna and Chris Brown trying their hardest to find love in a hopeless place? [Rap-Up]
:: Lady Gaga has created yet another way to interact with her loyal followers. When fully operational, littlemonsters.com will be a "new community" for monsters to socialize on or plan what topic they'll trend on Twitter. [ONTD]

Busta Rhymes And Chris Brown Release Baffling “Why Stop Now” Video
Mon Jan 30 2012 by Becky Bain
Since Busta Rhymes helped propel Chris Brown's Grammy-nominated "Look At Me Now" into a full-blown hit, it's time for Breezy to return the favor and appear in Busta's "Why Stop Now" clip. The Hype Williams-directed video begins with a quote from none other than Sophocles, and in this ballistic four-minute adventure we see Rhymes transform into a locust and break the fourth wall of the Internet while a shirtless Brown gets out some pent-up aggression in a dimly-lit hallway. We didn't even get to the part where Busta turns into a lost member of the Fantastic Four at an Occupy Wall Street-type protest. Just watch below and experience the insanity for yourself.

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 »
