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.
Adam Lambert, the flamboyant American Idol alum, was rumoured to be joining Queen for a performance at the Sonisphere Fest in July followed by a string of tour dates.
As we reported yesterday, Lambert gloated to the Daily Mail: ”The intention is to pay tribute to Freddie and the band by singing some f***ing great songs,” he allegedly said. “It’s to keep the music alive for the fans and give it an energy that Freddie would have been proud of.”
Lambert then took to his Twitter to dismiss the rumours on Friday evening:
“Oooh them clever reporters takin my quotes outta context…. I haven’t confirmed any guest appearances. I was talking about the EMA’S,” he tweeted, without directly referencing the report. “That being said, I’m truly flattered by your jump to such glorious conclusions mr journalist!! 
”
They had all performed together at the 2009 American Idol finals as well as a November gig at the MTV EMAs.
Lambert’s sophomore album Trespassing is due in March.
In order to preserve Amy Winehouse’s memory, Mitch Winehouse plans to hold a star filled concert every year in Amy’s honour. The concerts will be used to raise money for the Amy Winehouse foundation.
“We need to make sure the money keeps coming in,” the Daily Star quoted him as saying.
“We are definitely planning a memorial concert for this year. We are hoping to have one here and in America and we’ll do that every year and alternate doing it in LA and New York,” he said.
“I’d love to have Tony Bennett on the bill as he is a friend of the foundation and has donated $100,000 dollars which is incredible… We’d also love to have Lady Gaga there,” he added.
Redfoo summed up his Honduras concert perfectly when he tweeted, ”Epic concert tonight!!!! Everybody in Honduras, we set the place on fire!!!!” LMFAO’s concert got cut short last night when the venue caught on fire, and it’s believed this is no accident.
According to local news reports, the fire broke out at the Coliseo Nacional de Ingenieros … towards the end of the LMFAO concert. The group ended early after the stadium filled with smoke.
15 people were treated for smoke inhalation, and it is believed the fire was done on purpose. Redfoo later tweeted, “On a serious note. Hope everybody is safe from the fire tonight! love you Honduras!”
For a 19-year-old, Demi Lovato sure shows how strong she really is.
Take, for instance, the moment she accidentally ripped off some of her fake hair on stage. Ocean Up posted the video of the singer in Missouri. During “All Night Long”, the singer’s hands got caught in her long, wavey hair, causing her to pull out some extensions.
If you’re a dude and can’t imagine how painful it must be to rip off extentions sewn into your head, ask somebody to simply kick you in the balls. It’s kind of like that. Demi’s a real trooper for continuing on with the song, as if nothing happened. She may be crying on the inside, but fans just saw a happy, dancing girl on the outside.
Take a look at the video posted Below. Skip to the 48 second mark if you wan.
Taylor and her dance partner at the AMAs, Selena Gomez, reunite once again to perform on stage.
During a concert at Madison Square Garden last night, Selena joined her best friend Taylor to cover her song “Who Says?”.
Taylor’s Speak Now Tour is a massive success and because of that, she’s been able to have some amazing artists appear on stage with her, throughout several cities. From Justin Bieber to Jimmy Eat World to James Taylor, Taylor’s never a lonely girl when on stage.
Check out the video of Taylor and Selena rocking out to “Who Says” posted below.
When hitting up notable states on her North American tour, Taylor Swift has been covering songs from local artists. Rolling Stone posted all 35 cover songs on their website.
When she was in New Jersey, Taylor did a rendition of Bruce Springsteen’s “Dancing in the Dark”. You can watch the video below.
When in the Grand Rapids, the country star got her rap on by covering Eminem’s “Lose Yourself”. It’s a pretty cool cover, and the crowd certainly seemed to agree. Watch the video below.
At her L.A. show, special guests jumped on stage to help Taylor sing the cover songs. First, it was Justin Bieber and together they sang “Baby”. Watch the video posted below.
The next star to make a cameo at Taylor’s concert in L.A. was Nicki Minaj. She graced the stage to help Taylor out with her hit song, “Superbass”. It was the most fun performance out of all the covers. The two should definitely get together more often. Watch the video below.
Demi Lovato is sure making Maroon 5 and Christina Aguilera look like chumps as she does a sweet rendition of their hit “Moves Like Jagger”.
Demi spent last night in Detroit, Michigan and halfway through her set she performed this radio-friendly track. She was dressed like a Grecian goddess and backup dancers performed behind her.
Normally, singers go old-school with their cover selections but it’s refreshing to see Demi cover something very current and buzzworthy. Who knows, maybe Aguilera will return the favour and cover Demi’s song Skyscraper some day soon.
Check out the performance video below.
When Britney’s on stage, we all know she can get pretty outrageous with her lap dances. Who knew a fan would turn out to be the crazy one during one of her songs.
For her performance of “Lace & Leather” at her Brazil show, Britney invited a lucky male fan on stage for a dance. She wrapped her legs around the very excited guy and he then proceeded to bite her leg. Calm down, dude, it’s not a juicy burger!
In the video Perez Hilton posted, the guy looks like he’s never seen a female leg before. He’s hungrier than a zombie on The Walking Dead. But regardless of his weird behaviour, the princess of pop kept her focus and continued on lip-syncing the song.
Check out the video below.
Rihanna’s definitely on the fast-track to world domination but her exhaustion is slowly getting the best of her.
We reported a few days ago that she canceled a show in Malmo, Sweden due to the flu. Now, MTV says she had to cancel last night’s show in Stockholm an hour before she was scheduled to go on stage. Rihanna’s doctor said she was too sick to perform.
Rihanna’s been all over the world this year. She’s made what seems like 100 music videos, appearances in probably every continent and launched perfumes and other products. She’s definitely busy and pulled in 5 different directions all the time and it looks like she really needs to get some sleep.
Other celebrities have been once rushed to hospital for exhaustion, like Lady Gaga and Lindsay Lohan (back hen she actually had a job). Rihanna’s so young and has her whole life to be number one at everything. I suggest her New Year’s resolution would be to nap more. And to drink plenty of fluids.
Joe Jonas gets what every teenage boy has been dreaming of – a lap dance from the bets lip-syncer of all time, Britney Spears.
While performing at the Wembley Arena in London, Britney pulled opening act Joe Jonas on to the stage and she danced for him during her song “Lace and Leather”. It was his last show on Britney’s tour and she really wanted to give him one last hurrah.
To his 3 million Twitter followers, he wrote: “What a great night! LONDON! you rule! what a way to end the @britneyspears tour. And.. @britneyspears thanks for the strip tease.. 
”
The two definitely have chemistry, regardless of the age gap. I wonder what Britney’s boyfriend Jason has to say about this. Watch the racey video a fan posted below.
Don’t let her latest music video for “Papi” mislead you. Despite the image of her swan diving into a sea fueled of boner-zombies, J-Lo hasn’t moved on as quickly as you may think.
Apparently last weekend at her concert in Montville, Connecticut, Lopez burst into tears after a song montage that featured look-a-likes of her exes.
This is frustrating for a couple of reasons. First, there is no way it was an impromptu “song montage”. It’s highly unlikely that three professional dancers — who just so happen to share likenesses with Diddy, Ben Afleck and Mark Anthony — just appeared in the concert without J-Lo’s approval. I’m guessing this particular dance number was her idea and so, it makes her emotional response seem slightly over-dramatic and over-rehearsed.
In addition, if this is so hard on her, why does she want to publicly mock the subject at her concert? If J-Lo was really that busted up about the breakup, she would have done what every other pop-icon does when they’re feeling down: drowned her sorrows with a $1,000 bottle of wine and wiped her tears with a box of Kleenex made out of hundred dollar bills.
This leaves me wondering why she wasn’t as upset when the divorce first happened? Perhaps she was too busy with Bradley Cooper to notice?
Taylor Swift surprised fans last night in Dallas by bringing out B.o.B. The two performed his hit single “Airplanes” with Taylor singing Hayley Williams portion.
“Had a night to remember in Dallas performing one of my biggest songs with the ever-so enchanting Taylor Swift,” tweeted B.o.B.
Taylor added, “Tonight was like a dream. That crowd.. The biggest indoor stadium in the world. And singing ‘Airplanes’ with B.O.B. !!!!!”
The Black Eyed Peas have pulled out of the Michael Jackson Tribute concert for Saturday. The promoter says the group is suddenly “unable to perform.”
The promoters released a statement saying, “Due to unavoidable circumstances, the Black Eyed Peas will be unable to perform at this Saturday’s Michael Forever event.”
However, Cee-Lo Green and Christina Aguilera are still on the roster for the concert.
John Mayer took on his Tumblr this afternoon to announce that he will be cancelling a series of upcoming high-profile performances, including Ryan Seacrest’s “iheartradio” Music Festival in Las Vegas and a Tony Bennett concert at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
He also goes on to acknowledge the release of his upcoming album, “Born and Raised” will be moved to next year. As we reported in May, the album was originally scheduled for an October release.
Here is the full post, from his one forty plus blog:
“Hi everyone,
After several months of going week to week monitoring and hoping to correct the condition, I am forced to cancel my upcoming singing engagements due to something next to my vocal cords called a granuloma.
I’m bummed to have to bow out of both the iheartradio Music Festival in Las Vegas and an appearance with Tony Bennett in Los Angeles. I know there were people depending on me to be there and I’m sorry that I can’t be on those stages.
‘Born and Raised’ is complete as far as music recording, song selection, and in some cases mixing, but because of this condition I couldn’t finish singing on several of the tracks. This means the record will be released next year instead of this fall or winter.
This is a temporary setback, though I’m not sure how long or short a period of time it will be. I’ve got the best doctors in the country looking after me and I will be singing and touring again as soon as I get the all clear. Until then I’ll be spending time writing and composing more music and kicking an empty soup can around the West Village.
I’m looking forward to seeing you again soon. Until then take good care.
John”
Mayer will be featured on a duet of “One for My Baby (And One For The Road) with Tony Bennett on “Duets II”, which is due out September 20.
Demi Lovato is officially back on top, after suffering from a meltdown last year. Her newest tour sold out within minutes.
The last time Demi performed on stage was with the Jonas Brothers in South America in last year. The three upcoming shows sold out tickets within 15 minutes,
She took to Twitter to thank fans, writing, “Wow. Thank You Guys!!!!!! I have the best fans ever ever Ever!”
Justin Bieber made a surprise appearance last night at Taylor Swift’s concert in Los Angeles.
“You think you’ve heard LOUD screaming in your life,” Taylor Swift tweeted after her Los Angeles show on Tuesday night. “Then [Justin Bieber] comes out and does a surprise song during your show. Woah. Unreal.”
Bieber has become pretty close with Taylor Swift over the past couple of years.
“We should do that more often. great show! #muchlove,” Bieber tweeted to Swift.
MediaTakeOut is reporting Lil Wayne hooked up with a 16 year old girl in Montreal after his concert. The site says the two met up at an after party.
The site also says the girl’s name is Sarah, and she took a bus from Ottawa to see him perform in Montreal.
In a video posted online, “Sarah” as she refers to herself, says the MTO story is bogus.
“First of all, I did not take the bus to Montreal, I took a car – that just goes to show you how legit your source of information is,” she fires back. “I did not go into his hotel room. I did not have sexual intercourse with him.”
Sarah does admit she was aboard Wayne’s bus, and she snapped some photos. “It’s a really big shame that the absolute best rapper alive may have had his reputation stained,” she adds in response to the allegations.

Bieber came on stage and greeted his girlfriend Selena with a hug, and then sang “Favorite Girl,” and Justin Timberlake’s “Cry Me A River.”
TMZ reports a fire broke out in the lighting area above the stage. To make matters worse, Rihanna was an hour late getting on stage, and Rihanna recently cancelled another concert in Dallas during 2010.
Below is fan video of the fire breaking out. We like how this fan seems more concerned about getting replacement tickets, then people getting hurt.
