On February 5, Indianapolis will host Super Bowl XLVI — the 46th iteration of America's biggest game. Millions of fans will gather 'round the television set with seven-layer dip and cold drinks to watch an epic match-up of teams, the year’s funniest and most expensive commercials and most importantly — as far as we're concerned — Madonna's Super Bowl halftime show. The newly minted Interscope singer has been on her grind lately, promoting her Golden Globe-winning directorial debut W.E., unleashing a super sexy fragrance line and gearing up for the release of her 12th studio album MDNA and a world tour.
With so much going on, can Madonna still quarterback a show as memorable as these 10 amazing Super Bowl halftime performances? More »

Sun Nov 6 2011 by Idolator Staff
Another city, another "surprise" musical guest. For the Houston stop at the Minute Maid Park on her Speak Now tour, Taylor Swift brought out Nelly for a rousing rendition of his "Just A Dream." (Though personally, we would have preferred "Hot In Herre" or "Country Grammar.") How does the Wonderstruck New York visitor's Nelly-assisted number compare to recent collaborations with Shawn Colvin, Usher, and not-Justin-Timberlake? Find out below. More »

Wed Aug 17 2011 by Robbie Daw
Taylor Swift's Speak Now tour continues to wow fans each night, as the professional award collector has taken to covering hit songs by local pop artists from whatever town she zips through. (Check her renditions of tunes by Fall Out Boy, Pink, TLC and Eminem, for instance.) And while we predicted that Tay would tackle Sheryl Crow when she hit up St. Louis, turns out she opted for Nelly. Watch her bust an acoustic version of "Just A Dream" below.

As we wait with baited breath for the release of Kelly Rowland's Here I Am, at least the Monarch cover girl's track listing has surfaced to hold us over until July 26.

Watch Keri Hilson And Nelly “Lose Control” In Their New Video
Fri May 20 2011 by Robbie Daw
We first zeroed in on Keri Hilson and Nelly's Stargate-produced synth jam "Lose Control" as being one of the highlights off No Boys Allowed late last year. And despite the lack of a real breakout smash from Miss Keri's sophomore LP, she and the label have forged ahead and thankfully served up an impressive Colin Tilley-directed video for the song. Watch Hilson strut her sexy moves — and Nelly remove his shades for once (!!) — below.

Nelly Snuggles Up With Kelly Rowland In Their “Gone” Video

Way before Rihanna and Drake ruled the pop/R&B airwaves with "What's My Name," there was "Dilemma" by original are-they-or-aren't-they pair Nelly and Kelly Rowland. And as we know, Nell and Kell partnered up once again for the lovey-dovey tune "Gone" on Nelly's 5.0 album. Watch the music video below.

Nelly Gets Dreamy On ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’ Once Again
Tue Feb 8 2011 by Robbie Daw
Nelly's 5.0 album may have deep-sixed on the charts, but that didn't keep the MC from having at least one hit off it. Last fall the country grammar linguist appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live, where he performed his singles "Move That Body" and "Just A Dream." Sadly, that former jam never took off, so he was back again last night to do "Just A Dream" once more. Watch below.

Wed Dec 22 2010 by Robbie Daw
Sure, Keri Hilson's just-released No Boys Allowed landed on our Worst Album Cover Art Of 2010 roundup, but surely there's something to be said for the old adage that you can't judge a book—or in this case, record—by the cover? Case in point: Miss Keri's Nelly-featuring synth jam "Lose Control/Let Me Down." Listen below.
