Graffiti6 is starting to make their North American invasion, and they are hitting up the Tonight Show. Does this sound familiar? Well the Beatles made the exact same journey over 40 years ago. Naturally, @jordans_life had to make some comparisons.
Nick plays World of Warcraft. Not only that, he’s the head of his guild, demonstrating that it IS possible to juggle being a hardcore gamer with being a top-selling recording artist.
During a LIVE interview on andPOP.com Nick Carter gave out a number and took phone calls from his fans. These were real phone calls from real fans who we gave exclusive access to one of the biggest recording artists of our generation.
There were great questions about music, fitness, the backstreet boys but the most popular question, however, was about his underwear. In this clip Nick talks about his his ‘Haynes’ and covering his fans with glow in the dark paint.
When releasing new music today, half the battle is online promotion. However, contests, signed merch and giveaways aren’t always the best solutions. When working on their latest album, Hedley came up with a brilliant idea, they decided to make trailers.
It’s hard to prepare for an interview with Hedley. So in this interview, we threw caution to the wind, got a 24 of beer and broadcast the interview live on our USTREAM (andPOP.tv). Eventually Jacob, Dave and @jordans_life ended up talking about hairy legs, their newest music video and more.

Marina and The Diamonds are working on some new music, but Marina is being very secretive about it. Although the release has been delayed, she let’s us in on some secrets about the new album, and how alcohol changed her life.
In this week’s “Twitter Fight: Celebrity Edition”, it’s hip-hop star Nicki Minaj versus pop icon Cher.
It all started when Nicki allegedly disses Cher in her song “Did It On Em”. She sings “If you could turn back time, Cher/You used to be here but now you gone, Nair,” which doesn’t really make sense but I assume she’s making fun of Cher’s body hair.
Perez Hilton says a fan brought this to the 65-year-old performer’s attention.
Cher replied to the nameless fan saying: “I’ve seen lots of people come & go! No biggie!”
Then Nicki’s boyfriend Safaree Samuels has to stick his nose in someone elses’ business and tweeted to Cher, “listen to the words b4 you say dumb sh-t on twitter. do you know what a rap metaphore is??? TM is a cult you dont want it with!!” …Whatever that means!
None of this would have happened if random people weren’t going to Cher wanting to start another Chris Brown Twitter meltdown. Let this to a lesson to everybody: mind your own business. These people have real work to do.
Another star that’s spending too much time chattin’ bull on Twitter is living legend Cher.
Her transgendered son Chaz Bono was eliminated on Dancing With the Stars last night and Cher has some mean words to say on Twitter.
She tweeted: “Congratulations Chaz I’m SO PROUD OF U ! This was YOUR Quest & u Followed your Star but your mom “could cut a bitch!….
Thank u Carrie Ann 4 your Gentility u r beautiful inside & out! To the Gentleman? I didn’t know who u were b4 which I guess is a blessing!
Going Home is Fine but why insult him b4 he Goes! Maybe Rudeness & Flapping Arms take the place of TALENT ! As for the Older Gentleman ….every Show Needs A Grumpy Old Man!”
If I were Bruno (the grumpy old judge on the show who called Chaz a “little penguin”) I would apologize immediately. I’m trying to picture Cher “cutting a bitch” and it doesn’t look pretty!
She tells MTV News, “I wrote that song a long time ago, and I’ve never put it on one of my own albums for, really, no particular reason. I always write these concept records, and it just didn’t fit in. But it’s always been, like, this big, massive, beautiful hit record and everyone always says, ‘Why don’t you put that on your album?’ And I said, ‘I don’t know, it just doesn’t fit with everything else.’
“Cher heard the song and loved it and wanted to do it together. And I said, ‘F**k yeah, it’s Cher!”
Lions and Kevin James and bears – oh my!
A classic tale of a man seeking love, Zookeeper is the story of Griffin Keyes (Kevin James) on his quest to win back the love of his life, Stephanie (Leslie Bibb) with the help of his talking animal friends over at the Zoo. However, among the twists and turns along the way, Keyes realizes he might be running after the wrong girl and does everything he can to make things right. Keyes even finds a lifelong friend in Bernie the gorilla (voiced by Nick Nolte).
Going in with absolutely no expectations, Zookeeper was actually a quite enjoyable movie. While it is incredibly cheesy noticeably geared towards a younger audience, adults could enjoy it as well and could make for a fun family outing. There were many times when you will laugh, and many times when you will cry – I won’t tell if you don’t!
Personally, my favourite part of the movie was the guessing game you get to play, trying to figure out wich famous celebrity voices what animal. And with a cast like Cher, Adam Sandler, Sylvester Stalone, and Judd Apatow, just to name a few, I can assure you that it was extremely fun!
While it might not be winning an Oscar anytime soon, Zookeeper is not all that bad a movie, and I would definitely recommend it to parents who want to entertain their kids for a couple hours with a wholesome, cute, and enjoyable film. For everyone else, wait until it comes out on Netflix.
Zookeeper is out in theaters everywhere July 8.
Digital Spy is reporting that Cher is going country for her next album. What?
Country music producer Mark Bright has confirmed that he will be working on a new album with Cher in the near future. Bright has worked with numerous country acts, and is known as one of the masterminds behind all three of Carrie Underwood’s studio albums.
When asked about working with Cher, he told Silk and Denim Music: “Cher knows that her listeners also listen to country music, so she felt it was a natural thing to develop a country music relationship.”
The album would be the first solo effort from Cher since 2001′s Living Proof. That’s a decade!
The star has recently appeared in the film and soundtrack for “Burlesque” alongside Christina Aguilera. Although Cher won a Golden Globe for the song ‘You Haven’t Seen The Last Of Me’ from the film’s soundtrack, she failed to win an Oscar.
Cher is such an icon, and I can guarantee that her dedicated fans will follow her no matter what music path she decides to embark on, but country? Really? I guess her deep, crooner voice would fit with the genre, but I just have such an image of Cher as this electronic disco diva that I find it hard to picture her in a cowboy hat.
Props to her for trying something new, though. Unlike Avril Lavigne or the Backstreet Boys, who have been doing this forever without a change in style, at least Cher is taking a risk. And I like risk-taking. Yeehaw, Cher, Yee-haw.
If you are expecting a production akin to Baz Luhurmann’s Moulin Rouge or Bob Fosse’s Cabaret, you should probably just stay home and rewatch one of those films. If you are looking for a holiday “feel good” film, then look no further and go see Burlesque.
We have seen enough pop stars make the jump to Hollywood film before with films like Crossroads with Britney Spears, to know that often times it doesn’t turn out well. Surprisingly enough, Aguilera isn’t completely terrible in Burlesque. Obviously, her role doesn’t call for much acting talent, but for her film debut I’ll go as far to say that she wasn’t too shabby. The film however is limited by its cliche “country girl goes to Hollywood to make it big” storyline.
Aguilera plays Ali, a lonely gal from Iowa who takes a bus to Hollywood and becomes intrigued by the glitz and glamour of a burlesque club. Ali starts out as a waitress in the club until she finally proves she is worthy of the stage. The rags to riches story is filled with sequins, corsets, and a whole lot of Cher. Cher has proven that she is a talented actress, but this role kind of taints her abilities. Cher is incredibly reminiscent of Dr. Frankenfurter from The Rocky Horror Picture Show and not because she is scantily clad and armed with garder belts, but more due to her staunch black hair and caked on makeup that illuminates her artificially enlarged lips and sky-high cheekbones. While it is true that Cher’s physical appearance does not hinder her acting abilities, she just doesn’t really sell it. Cher is also known as a great singer, but her vocal stylings seem out of place next to Aguilera’s gospel-esque style.
The whole film sort of turns into this drawn out Christina Aguilera concert. Remember when Aguilera sang and starred in the music video for “Lady Marmalade”? Well, Burlesque is basically that plus a cliche love story, a little Hollywood temptation, and some rivalry.
We guess its a slow news day. People.com has published an article about Christina Aguilera’s New Year’s Resolution. What’s the resolution you ask? “To continue having the best life ever” is her resolution for 2010, she said while hosting a New Year’s party at Tao Las Vegas Thursday. “I paved the way for the work this year [2009].”
So that maybe a fair comment. She does have a brand new album coming out soon and a movie co-starring Cher called “Burlesque” (she seems fit for the role). So keep up the good work Christina!
Could Cher be the newest addition to the Batman franchise?
The UK Telegraph reports that the singer is in talks to star as Catwoman in the upcoming sequel.
“Cher is Nolan’s first choice to play Catwoman,” said an unnamed studio exec. “He wants to her to portray her like a vamp in her twilight years. The new Catwoman will be the absolute opposite of Michelle Pfeiffer and Halle Berry’s purring creations.”
Johnny Depp is also reportedly being signed on as the Riddler for the sequal, tentatively titled “The Caped Crusader.” It should begin filming early next year in Vancouver.
“The Dark Knight” is expected to gross $530 million.
Singer and actress Cher has announced plans to auction off 700 personal items from her home, including her bed, original Bob Mackie-designed costumes, and a 2003 H2 Hummer.
The Associated Press reports that the auction, to be held in October by Julien’s Auctions and Sotheby’s, is expected to raise more than $1 million US. According to Cher, a “nice percentage” of the money taken in will go to the Cher Charitable Foundation.
“I’m truly excited about it, having had this stuff for so many years,” said the 60-year-old performer. “I’m only keeping about five items from everything I have.”
Cher said that the desire to redecorate her Malibu home has led to the upcoming sell-off.
About 200 pieces of clothing (including designer dresses and costumes) and 85 pieces of jewelry (including some she made herself) will be included in the auction.
