Miley Cyrus And Avril Lavigne Perform With Music Legends On ‘Oprah’

Wed Apr 13 2011 by Becky Bain
Today on Oprah, the talk show host conducted a musical science experiment — what if we mixed together female rockers from the past with obnoxious pop stars of the present? The outcome resulted in kind of random, but not terrible performances by Pat Benatar and Avril Lavigne singing "Love Is A Battlefield", while Joan Jett performed with Miley Cyrus on a medley, including "Cherry Bomb" and "Bad Reputation." A fitting choice, since we honestly believe that Miley does not give a damn about her bad reputation. Watch both performances below. More »

Mon Jan 10 2011 by Becky Bain
Did You Hear?

:: Avril Lavigne films the video for her new single in 3-D. We're sure it will be just like Avatar, but 300% shorter. [Music & Lyrics]

:: Nicki Minaj tells E! she just shot the video for her tracks "Moment 4 Life" with Drake and "Fly" with Rihanna. Guess we know what singles to look forward to next. (Though our vote is for the Kanye-assisted tune "Blazin'".) [E! Online]

:: The unsolved murder case of the Notorious B.I.G. is being reopened by investigators, 13 years after his death. [PopEater]

:: We much prefer this remix of Katy Perry's "E.T." over this one. [Arjan Writes]

:: Move over Backstreet Boys and New Kids! Salt-N-Pepa are going back on the road for a 20-city Legends Of Hip Hop tour, in commemoration of the 25th anniversary of their debut album. Slick Rick, Doug E. Fresh and more are also on the lineup. [Rap-Up]

Fri Jul 9 2010 by Becky Bain

Check out some rockin' Robyn mash-ups below, including "Dancing On My Own" mixed with AC/DC's "Shook Me All Night Long", as well as "Fembot" combined with Salt-N-Pepa's "Push It." More »
