When The Kooks are in the studio they’re focused and most importantly, sober. Watch Hugh and Luke explain their reasoning below.
The Kooks released a new album called “Junk of the Heart,” and you would think Hugh and Luke would be very excited about it. Well, they seemed rather indifferent to be honest. We spoke about that and why they don’t care about critics.

David Beckham debuts a new line of underwear, the worst dressed celebrity – Shy’m and Matthew Broderick is back as Ferris Bueller with a brand new commercial airing during the Super Bowl on Feb 5th 2012.
Daniel Radcliffe is back with his new movie The Woman In Black. It’s a bone chilling remake of a film from the ’80s. Ironically, Daniel actually scares very easily but he’s not afraid of ghosts. In this interview he tells us what really gives him the creeps.
Next time you’re struggling to make conversation, try asking this question: “If you could invite anyone (living or dead) to the perfect house party, who would it be?”
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.
Diamandis from Marina and The Diamonds talks to us about her very serious disease. It’s called synaesthetic. And we lied, it’s not a disease. More like a cool condition. Diamandis explains further.
Would you be embarrassed if someone scrolled through your iPod? We sit down with Spee and Brendan to talk about the diverse music on their playlist.
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.
Here’s another reason to be good buddies with Justin Bieber – he will buy you a car for Christmas. Justin bought his childhood friend Ryan Butler a Ford Mustang for Christmas.
“Justin got me a present. #swag!!!” Butler posted to his Twitter along with a pic of a brand-new ivory two-door Ford Mustang convertible Sunday.
Butler is Justin’s friend who made a cameo in the video for “One More Time.”
Snooki took to Twitter to share some pictures of her figure. The MTV star shared various angles of her new slender look.
Snooki is celebrating after she reached her ideal weight of 98lbs. She has been battling weight problems and an eating disorder for many years.
Pollizi also snapped some Christmas pics with her on and off again boyfriend, Jionni LaValle.
The big question remains – how did Snooki drop that much weight so quickly? Granted she has a personal trainer, but that’s a dangerous amount of weight lost. Do you think there is more to her weight loss than just exercise?
Justin Bieber spent some time yesterday with his family for Christmas. And he was also nice enough to share some pics via Twitter.
On December 24, Justin Tweeted, “spending time with family – feels really good. going to get to see these smiles on Christmas.” Justin shared a pic of himself with his brother Jaxon and sister Jazmyn.
He also tweeted on Dec. 24, “going to be on the CHRISTMAS DAY PARADE on ABC tomorrow then some NBA BASKETBALL is back! #CHRISTMAS.”
It’s really embarrassing how the Kardashians try so hard to stay relevent.
The famous family always go over the top with their Christmas cards. Every year they do glamorous family portraits and this year is no exception. Lamar, Khloe’s husband, and Mason, Kourntey’s son are new additions to the family Christmas portraits.
Another new thing the Kardashians are doing this year is making their photo 3D! Kim writes on her website that you can purchase 3D glasses if you want to gander at the multi-dimensional (and multi-rich) family this holiday season.
There’s no other family in the world that tries too hard to be cool. I literally can’t think of anyone that would want to buy this holiday card. My family isn’t the kind of family to partake in any sexy Christmas photo shoots together and I like it that way.
Last night’s Saturday Night Live was brilliantly hosted by alumni Jimmy Fallon and the musical guest was Michael Buble. There was a handful of holiday skits, but one of the standouts was definitely a hit.
In this hilarious promotional skit for ‘Michael Buble’s Christmas Duets’, the Canadian boy festives up with a pop-locking Justin Bieber, an overly humbled Taylor Swift, an auto-tuned Kanye West. Other spoofs by Jimmy Fallon and the SNL cast included Sting, Radiohead’s Thom Yorke, Russell Brand, American Idol’s Scotty McCreery and a barely recognizable Lady GaGa.
Buble is currently sitting comfortably on top of the American and Canadian Billboard charts and is reportedly on its way to being the second-highest selling album of this year. With 1.52 million copies sold in the States (after seven weeks) it is already the fourth biggest selling album of the year, according to Nielson SoundScan. It is expected to face some competition when it nears Adele’s “21″ that hit 5 million copies.

Selena Gomez posted some pics from her crazy Christmas sock party. As you can see, Selena and her friends are really getting into the Christmas spirit.
Unfortunately, Selena didn’t post any pictures of Justin, so we aren’t sure what kind of socks he was strutting.
Justin Bieber must get his fair share of lame holiday swag. I mean, this kid has everything at his finger tips. I’m sure his grandparents still give him a stocking full of socks for Christmas.
With the release of his new perfume “Someday”, Justin Bieber made a public service announcement about ways to avoid LHS (lame holiday swag). He says you can spot someone with LHS if they have ”a lame face, dry mouth, even hysteria caused by uncool swag.”
Bieber obviously suggests people buy his perfume as holiday gifts in order to avoid Lame Holiday Swag. It’s a serious epidemic that’s sweeping our nation, people!
One of the most tedious tasks around Christmas time is taking the family portrait.
I, for one, have the luxury of living on my own, so the least I do is take a photo of my dog wearing a Santa hat and email it to my mom. But, some people can’t escape the inaugural family holiday card portrait. Some are artistic and beautiful, and some are downright embarrassing.
Of course, we’re not going to show you the pretty ones. Instead, we are going straight for the awkward and uncomfortable.
You don’t need parents or a wife to take a family Christmas photo. Cats appreciate being in the group shot once in a while.
I assume this is what the Kardashian family photo will look like in 5 years.
I guess nothing lures Santa down your chimney than little boys dressed in bacon.
Goths do celebrate Christmas but the thing is, they actually love it when they get a lump of coal under the tree.
They just couldn’t wait to Tweet, Facebook, Tumblr and StumbleUpon about their family portrait!
If you can’t get enough of these ridiculous photos, you can find a lot more at BuzzFeed. Don’t be shy to send your awkward family holiday photos with us at andPOP!
Weird comes in all shapes and sizes this week, as Paul shows off an infant that’s already cracked into the rap game and a Korean that’s completely lost his mind. If you can’t figure what they’re both screaming about, it’s because Justin Bieber makes his TWOTI debut with the #1 Video of the Week.
They’re the guys who party on boats with T-Pain. They’re the guys that just had sex with your mom and they’re the guys that jizz in their pants at the grocery store. The guys of Lonely Island sure get into a lot of shenanigans but just because it’s the holiday season doesn’t mean they’re smartening up.
For the winter edition of GQ Magazine, Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer, and Jorma Taccone, pose for a couple of Holiday album covers that will probably never seize to exist.
You can check out for jolly album covers over at Buzzfeed. We also have a behind-the-scenes video of the photo shoot posted below.
If hearing “Jingle Bells” and “Rocking Around the Christmas Tree” makes you want to puke, well, you better get those barf bags out, because Chrsitmas music isn’t going anywhere.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, when U.S. radio stations began playing christmas music 24/7, they raked in $20.1 billion, up 8 per cent from last year. So, if you’re a total Scrooge about the holiday music, you better buy some metal CDs to have handy in your car.
“There’s no other programming tactic in radio history that consistently delivers ratings increases better than Christmas music,” says senior VP of Clear Channel, Darren Davis.
When radio stations go the festive route, there are more chances you may hear the same annoying holiday song more than once in the office. For example, KYXY-FM in San Diego, played Bing Crosby’s version of “White Christmas” six times in one day. Given that the young guy has four holiday singels already, I wonder how many times Justin Bieber will come up on the radio today.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, here are the six most popular Christmas songs on the radio:
1. John Lennon – “Happy Christmas (War is Over)”
2. Andy Williams – “It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year”
3. Burl Ives – “Have a Holly Holly Christmas”
4. Mariah Carey – “All I Want For Christmas is You”
5. Nat King Cole – “The Christmas Song”
6. Jose Feliciano- ”Feliz Navidad”
Justin Bieber has more Christmas videos to last you a lifetime. His newest one, “Santa Claus Is Coming To Town”, features the singer working at a toy factory.
The helpers and elves may have a crap load of presents to make in just 19 days but they always find time to break dance! Usually the dance scenes in a Bieber video are innovative and fun but in this one it’s flat and robotic.
The classic song, features in the “Arthur’s Christmas” movie, has also been covered by Bruce Springsteen who does a much better job.
Essentially, what this video lacks is Mariah Carey. “All I Want For Christmas” was an adorable collaboration between the two singers and the video turned out to be a joy to watch. “Santa Claus” is just dark and dreadful. The so-called toy factory it takes place in looks like it’s about to be investigated by the FBI for breaking health code violations and child labour laws.
Check out the video and see for yourself.
All we want for Christmas is Justin Bieber. But, sadly, we can’t all be Selena Gomez. Or Mariah Carey in this case.
Yes, the lucky songbird got to costar in a joyous music video with the Biebs for his new song “All I Want For Christmas”, which is a cover of an old Mariah track.
The new mother of two looks like a total knock-out dresses as Mrs. Santa Claus and Bieber’s sporting a nice, fresh haircut. He’s sporting the most comfiest Christmas sweaters, you can’t help but want to cozy up by the fireplace with him and Mariah.
That dog featured in the end of the video, where Justin and Mariah pass out presnets together is one lucky canine! Check out the cute video posted below.
While everyone and their dog are putting out holiday albums, Scarlett Johansson is only sparing us a song.
The actress, who put out an album of Tom Waits covers back in 2008, joins Dean Martin in singing “I’ll Be Home For Christmas”. The classic song is on Dean’s upcoming album “My Kind of Christmas”.
Boom Bap Beatnik posted the song on their site. It’s a pretty dashing song and Scarlett sounds like she’s straight from the 1950s. If the two, who recorded the song back in September, reunite for a music video, I know at least 100 guys who’d love to see Scarlett frolic around by the fireplace, drinking hot chocolate.
Lady Gaga is the gift that keeps on giving this season. Now, she had a holiday album she wants to treat her fans to this holiday.
Ace Showbiz says the 4-track album including the classic “White Christmas” which she added more lyrics to, in order to make the song longer. Another song featured is a cover of Nat King Cole’s jazz track “Orange Coloured Sky”. Can’t wait to hear how Lady Gaga makes that song her own.
The album, “A Very Gaga Holiday”, will come out two days after her Thanksgiving special on ABC. You can already order the mini album on iTunes. It’s getting great reviews from fans already.
Listen to “White Christmas” via SoundCloud posted below.

‘Tis the season to be jolly – especially for Michael Buble!
After four weeks on the charts, Michael Buble’s newly released holiday album, Christmas, has finally made it to No. 1 with a running total of just under 237,000 sales. His chart-topping Christmas album marks his second No. 1 album on the UK charts. Congrats, Michael!
Fans can catch Buble on NBC’s Christmas in Rockefeller on December 6 with his Christmas special, ”A Michael Buble Christmas,” where he will be joined by Justin Bieber, Cee Lo Green, Kellie Pickler, and more, in what is his first Christmas show hosting gig.
And now, to get in the Christmas spirit, I leave you with both Michael and Justin’s renditions of the classic, “Santa Claus Is Coming to Town.” Enjoy!
“Santa Claus is Coming to Town” – Michael Buble
“Santa Claus is Coming to Town” – Justin Bieber
Are you ready for the snow, the waking up in the darkness, and two months of the same carols playing over and over again in various shopping centres?
It’s that time of year when Justin Beiber’s Mistletoe will surely be played over and over again while naughty YouTubers try to disgruntle his adoring fans. However, if you can peel yourself away from the melodrama, there is even more Holiday cheer to be found, some that promotes the spirit of charity.
The serious entrepreneurial and at times controversial Olsen twins are showing their playful side again. Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen have decided to pay a little tribute to an internet meme, photo bombing, and classic holiday movies. It’s all for a video they’ve made for Style Mint’s “T-Moments” series.
It’s a brilliant video if only for mixing the romantic scene of It’s A Wonderful Life with the twins planking on the moon. There’s also an epic-fail in National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation with the twins storking on an unlit roof. They do some owling with Charlie Brown and some Plowing with Dorothy on the yellow brick road.
They’re helping to promote the sales of their tees. 10 percent of the sales are going to theWomen In Need charity. A refreshing change from what they and other celebrities are getting attention for.
If you find yourself unable to keep up with Michael Jackson’s death-bed auction price, or tire in the hunt for Madonna’s leaked demo (just kidding, is anyone really looking for that?) Check out the short video below.
Justin Bieber is very animated in his new video “Santa Clause is Coming To Town“, where he has recreated the magic of the 1970s classic Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer.
The video is super cute and full of those loveable North Pole creatures. The song has a 90s R&B sound but it does have a pretty rockin’ break down in the middle. Justin does a good job at being the ultimate Christmas creature heartthrob.
While I’m not a huge fan of Christmas music, Bieber doesn’t butcher the song or make it obnoxious. He managed to update the classic song without over-doing it, unlike most 90s pop stars did back in the day.
Beiber’s new album Under the Mistletoe is #1 on the Billboard this week. Check out the video below.
It’s Mistletoe Monday!
The teen sensation that is Justin Bieber just sat down with Ryan Seacrest to explain his Christmas plans and to give fans a sneak peak of a track on his upcoming Christmas album.
Probably one of the most anticipated albums of the year, Under the Mistletoe features iconic artists like Mariah Carey and Boys II Men.
Mr. Selena Gomez recently shot a video for the single Mistletoe where he’s seen kissing a mysterious brunette. Although she looks an awful lot like his current girlfriend, we’re sure he’ll be kissing the real deal when he parties with Ryan Seacrest for “Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve” this new year’s eve.
Take a look at the Beebs frolicking in the snow below.
