Taylor Momsen And The Pretty Reckless Perform Live On French TV

Wed Jan 26 2011 by Erika Brooks Adickman
Raccoon-eyed Material Girl spokesmodel Taylor Momsen, along with her band The Pretty Reckless, rocked French television show Taratata yesterday. The Gossip Girl (and recent Cee-Lo coverer) mixed things up for her televised appearance by wearing pants (no garter belts or pasties here!) as she performed "Make Me Wanna Die" and an incredible rendition of Oasis' "Wonderwall". Dakota Fanning fan or not, you can't deny that Momsen could have owned the role of Cherie Currie in The Runaways. Jump below to get reckless. More »

The Morning Mix: Katy Perry Is Smokin’ In A Bikini

Tue Jul 20 2010 by Becky Bain
Did You Hear? :: Here's Katy Perry in a bikini in The Bahamas. That's it. You're welcome. [Just Jared]

:: Liam Gallagher says his new Noel-less band Beady Eye is "bigger than Oasis." And since he was so fond of calling Oasis bigger than The Beatles, and The Beatles claimed they were bigger than Jesus, well, then, Beady Eye certainly has a lot to live up to. [Spin]

:: Lily Allen pulled out of Spain's Benicassim festival due to undisclosed health concerns. Whatever ails her, get better, girl! [Spinner]

:: Ke$ha poses with two man-bears on the red carpet of a poolside Las Vegas event she hosted over the weekend. Still not the strangest thing to accompany her on the red carpet. [Buzzworthy]

:: Gwen Stefani and Miley Cyrus were caught wearing the exact same spiderweb-styled shirt. How embarrassing—one of them is going to have to go home and change. [E! Online]

After the jump, see who's rocking your tube today. More »

Daft Punk And Snoop Dogg Fulfill Every Nerd’s Dream By Appearing In ‘Star Wars’

Fri Jun 4 2010 by Becky Bain
The NBA playoffs have an ad featuring Andre 3000 doing The Beatles, and the Super Bowl had T-Pain shilling Bud Light, but the World Cup has one-upped every other sports event's commercials in just one blow. Snoop Dogg, Ciara, Oasis's Noel Gallagher and Daft Punk all got together to film an epic Adidas commercial where they reenact the Cantina scene from Star Wars. What does Star Wars have to do with soccer? Does it really matter? Watch below.   More »


Rihanna Causes A Champagne Supernova, Performs “Wonderwall”

Thu Apr 22 2010 by Robbie Daw
Rihanna performed in Zurich Monday night for her Last Girl On Earth tour, and much is being made of the fact that she was rushed to the hospital directly after due to a minor rib injury (she's okay, and has since been carrying on with her tour). One thing that has been overlooked is that earlier in the night recently dethroned chart queen RiRi decided to channel the Gallagher brothers by covering Oasis' "Wonderwall" during her Swiss set. Catch Rihanna leading the audience in a sing-along to the classic tune after the jump. More »

Oasis Save Their Bad News For Late On Friday

Fri Aug 28 2009 by Maura

Tonight’s set by the pugilistic Britpop titans Oasis at the Rock En Seine Festival, which was supposed to commence about an hour ago, was canceled at the last minute due to an “altercation,” the crowd was told. Well, that “altercation” was actually Noel Gallagher up and quitting the band because of his brotherly love pretty much going pffft! Good thing he had enough sense to blog about it immediately afterward: More »

New Britpop Comp Ensures That It Will Be Hot Topic By Neglecting To Include Songs By Blur Or Oasis

Wed Apr 29 2009 by Maura

The three-disc Britpop-of-the-’90s compilation Common People–named after the Pulp song, of course–comes out in June, and it will come packaged with liner notes written by Pitchfork contributor / Saint Etienne member Bob Stanley. While the track listing does have more than its share of gems, the absence of feuding NME titans Blur and Oasis will no doubt cause lots of message-board handwringing, perhaps even more than the presence of Gay Dad. Get ready to argue over what songs were missed by checking out the full tracklisting after the jump! More »

The “NME” Will Not Let You Forget That It Loves (And Loves To Hate) Oasis

Mon Jan 26 2009 by Maura

Nominations for the NME’s annual addition to the bonfire of British awards shows, the Shockwave Awards, were announced today, with longtime darlings Oasis scoring seven nods—including a Worst Band nomination—and Arctic Monkeys/Last Shadow Puppets frontman Alex Turner amassing six. Of course, the biggest belly-laughs come in the Hero and Villain of the Year categories. The lights of positivity in the NME’s world are Turner, the Killers’ Brandon Flowers, Brit comedian Noel Fielding, Oasis’ Noel Gallagher… and Barack Obama, while the big bad guys (and gal) are Amy Winehouse, George W. Bush, Gordon Brown, John McCain, and Pete Doherty. (Obama, sadly, is the only Hero contender who didn’t also get a “Best Dressed” nod; he’s replaced in that category by some British “it girl” who isn’t Kate Moss or Sienna Miller.) Full slate of nominees after the jump.
