Favorites is our recurring video series on the personal preferences of the pop artists who inspire us. Because the artists we love love stuff too.
As Patrick Stump is one of our favorite solo artists of 2011, we sat down with the Soul Punk singer to find out what some of his favorites things are. In our second installment of our Favorites series (head back to watch our debut video with Kelly Clarkson!), the Fall Out Boy frontman shared some of the places, people and things that makes his world go 'round.
Can you guess Patrick's favorite way to unwind? How about his favorite new style accessory? Or his all-time favorite city? (Okay, that one might be fairly easy to guess.) Jump below to check it out!

Nice Abs: The Debut Of Lego Iggy Pop
Fri Sep 18 2009 by Maura
In November, the folks at Harmonix are following up their recent release of The Beatles: Rock Band with Lego Rock Band, in which the normal “play this song right” challenges will be made “Lego-centric” and led by blocky avatars, including the toy Iggy Pop shown at left. And if you just put a hat and a vest on him and give him a whip, he can export himself to Lego Indiana Jones! OK that’s not true, but it should be. [Vulture / EW] More »
Stooges’ Stolen Truck Recovered, Equipment Still Missing
Wed Aug 6 2008 by Maura
The rental truck that housed Iggy and the Stooges’ gear when it was stolen sometime Monday morning has been found, but the equipment inside has yet to be recovered. The Stooges’ show tonight in Toronto will go on despite the loss, but the band members will have to use rented and donated equipment until their stuff turns up. C’mon, this story needs to have a happy ending! Full list of stolen items–via Hootpage, which has pictures of some pieces–after the jump.

Norman Cook Seeks Less Dated Moniker Than “Fatboy Slim”
Wed May 14 2008 by anthonyjmiccio
After his upcoming album (you know, the one with Iggy Pop on it) comes out, Fatboy Slim will no longer be Fatboy Slim. It’s almost surprising that it’s taken Norman Cook so long to realize that his moniker means “words on a loop back in the late ’90s words on a loop back in the late ’90s words on a loop words on a loop loop loop loop lplplplpllplpplp!” and that much of the world will always be embarrassed at how novel and fascinating they found such a gimmick. (I know I am.) The name may have had some residual weight with the ad execs who made sure we heard at least two of his jams during every commercial break in 1999, but it’s time to move on. And to what, you ask?
Virgin Fest Just Got A Whole Lot More Old
Mon Apr 28 2008 by anthonyjmiccio
Bob Dylan, Chuck Berry and The Stooges have been added to the line-up for Baltimore’s Virgin Fest, to be held on August 9-10. The Foo Fighters, Nine Inch Nails and Stone Temple Pilots have already been announced as headliners, so it looks like new parents as well as new grandparents will have acts they enjoy. For the kids, there’s Paramore and Lil Wayne, and a dance tent featuring Moby, Underworld and Richie Hawtin! Actually, that dance tent’s probably for the parents too. Full line up after the jump.
Iggy And Fatboy Slim To Be Your DogBeyourdogbeyourdogbebebebebbbbbbb
Thu Apr 3 2008 by anthonyjmiccio
Someone is paying Fatboy Slim to make another album, and Iggy Pop is going to warble on it. “I’ve done a track with him and a few others as well,” says the late-’90s techno duck. “We’ve been mates for years. He always comes to see me at shows and I’m like, ‘You’re Iggy Pop, what are you doing here?’” Good question. It’s possible that the Stooges’ less than transcendent arrangement of “Ray Of Light” inspired him to get a slighty (slightly) less outdated groove on. Or maybe he hope to score another “Aisha.”
Iggy And Crew Shine Some Kinda Light On Madonna At The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame
Tue Mar 11 2008 by Jess Harvell
Yeah guys, I mean…not like I was expecting some kinda “L.A. Blues” blowout as a big raspberry in the face of the HOF and I love both Ig and “Ray Of Light” but… Maybe “Burnin’ Up” was better? Madonna’s blatant disinterest in whatever’s going around her is still kinda disarming? More »
Ciccone Youth Member To Honor His Idol At Hall Of Fame Induction
Tue Mar 4 2008 by Al Shipley
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, perhaps looking to bolster the rocker cred of one its most undeniably pop inductees yet, is going a little left field with its choice of performers to pay tribute to Madonna at next week’s induction ceremony: Iggy & The Stooges. Then again, it’s not clear who would be a more obvious choice as a younger heir apparent to the singer’s legacy of blonde ambition, given the more wholesome new crop of Disneyfied starlets, and the fact that the pop tarts of yesteryear that Madonna previously passed the torch to with her tongue are currently popping out babies or otherwise, er, indisposed.
