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.

We may at times have favour one parent over the other, but it must hurt to hear the honest truth from your own child.
One father saw the humour in it all and posted a cute YouTube video of his baby daughter telling him who her favourite is: mom.
“Why don’t we break for recess, have something to eat and come back to it?” he humourously asks. He then tries to interrogate her in a cheeky way, he even bribes her with a pony but she continues to say “mom”.
If you want to see a toddler outsmart a grown man, you might enjoy this adorable home video.
Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber have a lot in common besides being major pop stars – they both come from families who had to battle hard times.
Selena recently revealed that when she and her family moved to Los Angeles, her first paycheque from “Wizards Of Waverly Place” went to pay the family’s rent.
She tells Access Hollywood, “I think (my first pay cheque) went into living (in Los Angeles) because we had to move from Texas, so I think we just had to pay for it.”
Now that was then and this is now. Do you think Selena is still covering her parents’ rent?
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.”
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!
The fashion season is in the air, and who better to start off the new year than Angelina Jolie? The actress-turned-director of In the Land of Blood and Honey looks as stunning as always on the January cover of Marie Claire.
She was quick to talk about growing family with Brad Pitt.
“[Brad] has expanded my life in ways I never imagined. We built a family. He is not just the love of my life, he is my family. I hold that very dear,” she said. “I suppose what I’ve learned from Brad is to be able to have the kind of family whose happiness and well-being comes before your own. I’m very, very grateful to have such a loving family, and I wouldn’t have that without him.”
Hearing this makes us so excited for they day Brangelina might finally announce that they’re getting married. Apparently, their kids are just as impatient about it as we are.
“They have mentioned it, yes,” Jolie answered when asked if the kids want them to get married. “If you take it in an emotional way, you think, Ohhh, the children! They don’t feel secure enough! But then you think, Now, wait a minute: They think a wedding is a party with a four-layer tiered cake!”
The family still seem happy as ever, as Brad, Angelina, and all six kids went on a family outing today to New York’s FAO Shwartz, Angelina flashing a giant grin as they walked into the toy store. Despite the current lack of a marriage proposal, it seems like the Jolie-Pitts as a family are here to stay!
“Love on Top” singer Beyonce Knowles and her husband Jay-Z just found out they’re expecting a girl.
According to Yahoo, Beyonce always wanted to have a girl because she wants the same strong relationship she had with her mother, Tina.
Another source says Beyonce’s been buying a lot of stuff for the baby and by December, friends may not have anything left to buy for her and her baby.
We all know Queen B and Jay-Z are two of the most richest performers in this day and age. We also know the baby will be the most gorgeous but spoiled baby of all time.
That baby will have at least 5 nannies. The baby girl will go to a fancy boarding school in the South of France or another extravagant location. The baby will be born wearing the most expensive weave any hairdresser would be so lucky to style. The baby’s name will be something like Lavinder or Caviar or something else that sounds super exotic. The baby will be wearing diapers made our of silk and Beyonce will make a bib for us out of 100 dollar bills. The baby will be vegan because only rich snobby people are vegans (sup, Gwyneth Paltrow!). And, more importantly, that baby will never have any real friends because forever she’ll be paranoid of people dating her because she has rich famous parents.
Although Katy Perry is madly in love with her husband Russell Brand, the 26 year old pop star told InStyle she is not ready for kids.
“Not yet,” she reveals. “I think if you’re married, it’s often in your future.”
However, she is not worried about how kids could impact her career.
“I want to have kids! I’m totally fine with saying that. I think some people are worried it’s going to ruin their career, but I want to live a full life. I don’t want to miss out on any experience. I want lots of children.”
Michael Jackson’s children and father paid a visit to his boyhood home in Gary, Indiana. Today would have been Michael’s 53rd Birthday.
Festivities took place throughout the weekend at the home celebrating Michael’s life.
Thirteen-year-old Paris Jackson told WLS-TV that she enjoyed seeing so many fans at the house when she and her brothers, 14-year-old Prince and 9-year-old Blanket, visited on Saturday.
The Post-Tribune of Merrillville reports that Jackson’s father Joe attended activities at the home on Sunday.
Remember Hanson? Those were the band of brothers who had that hit song ”MMMBop.” Well the oldest brother Isaac has some thoughts on Kings of Leon cancelling the rest of their tour.
Kings of Leon is made up of three brothers and their cousin. The band claims vocal issues and exhaustion are the reason for the cancellation, along with some family feuding.
“I have a hard time with musicians who act like pricks because it just makes me mad,” he told WENN.
“I just sit there and I go, ‘You know what, dude, no matter whether you’re in a band just surviving or you’re in a bus playing stadiums, one way or another you’re still among the rare breed of people that are actually getting paid to do it.’”
And he also made some comparisons to Oasis.
“It made it hard for people to have a lot of fun at their shows — because they were worried that Noel (Gallagher) was gonna get pissed off (and walk off) … But I don’t think that they (Oasis) necessarily didn’t finish shows.”
So there you go – wise words from Isaac Hanson. Now let’s listen to ”MMMBop.”
Adele gives her money to charity and loved ones, reports Contact Music.
The jazz and blues singer claims she does so because she knows what it is like to struggle.
The 23-year-old singer claims she has had a tough upbringing, so after skyrocketing to fame, she wishes to help those in need.
“The cash has started trickling in, but I don’t come from any money so I help people. I give money to charity and to friends and family,” she says.
Adele hopes to take a break from making music soon, though, and insists she won’t hire help once she is on vacation.
“I have an assistant but I do my own washing. My auntie cleans for me, but I love a good clean as well,” she says to Britain’s Glamour magazine.
“And when all these squillion pounds come in, I’m having a f***ing break so I won’t need any help… I don’t need assistance getting myself to the pub.”
Just another reason to love her – very humble and hardworking. She definitely deserves a break too, and every penny she earns.
After announcing their split last year, Billy Ray Cyrus is now claiming that he and his wife Trish have decided to reconcile, MTV News reports.
“I dropped the divorce,” Miley Cyrus’ dad told “The View” hosts during a pre-taped appearance that aired on Friday. ”I wanted to put my family back together.”
Cyrus was on the show to promote his new album, I’m an American, out in June. He claimed his family are working out their problems. Which is good, because Billy Ray and Trish have been married for 17 years. Counts for something.
“Communication I think is one of the biggest problems that we as human beings have in this whole world,” he said. “And I think for the first time me and my entire family are finally communicating with each other in a way that, it’s been quite some time … and to answer your question, things are really the best they’ve ever been.”
Cyrus also retracted the controversial statements he made in a GQ interview, in which he said that his and Miley’s hit Disney series “Hannah Montana” destroyed his family. ”I feel like I kind of got my Miley back in a way,” he said. “I feel like we are the daddy and the daughter that we were before ‘Hannah Montana’ happened. I love ‘Hannah Montana.’ I love Disney. That didn’t tear my family apart.”
I’ve never been a fan of fathers who discuss every detail of their personal lives with the media. I mean, Michael Lohan anyone? That being said, though, I am glad Billy Ray is talking about these issues. I’m glad he’s moving forward in a positive way and genuinely taking back all the negative things he’s said in the past.
After a tough year, including the flak he’s gotten for the GQ interview and Miley’s salvia controversy, I’m really rooting for this family to get back on their feet. If not, it’ll break my “Achy Breaky Heart!”
Sorry, I had to.
William Balfour is the only person detained by police for the murders of Jennifer Hudson’s mother, brother and nephew. However, Chicago Police said on Tuesday it may be possible more than one person was involved in the murders.
Balfour, the estranged husband of Julia Hudson, actress Jennifer Hudson’s sister, is still being held on a parole violation after an arrest and questioning on Friday, but has not yet been charged.
Law enforcement sources told the Chicago Tribune that they are focusing on Balfour’s movements the day the murders took place, October 24, but that they are also trying to determine whether someone else drove Balfour to the Hudson family home in Chicago.
Witnesses have said the Chrysler parked a block from the Hudson home was driven by Balfour, 27, at approximately 7 a.m. on Friday, the same vehicle was later found outside a local high school. A security video showed someone parking the car there, but detectives have yet to identify the driver.
A portrait of Heath Ledger has been submitted for the 2008 Archibald Prize, Australia’s most prestigious award for portraiture.
The CBC reports that Vincent Fantauzzo painted Ledger just two months before his death. The painting features two mischievous versions of Ledger whispering in either ear of a more sombre version of himself.
Fantauzzo will find out if he won on Friday, but he already knows what he’ll be doing with the painting – he’s giving it to Ledger’s family.
“It seems only right, as we did the sitting at his mom’s house in Perth and she was very much a part of the process, making us tea and crumpets and watching from the sideline,” he told The Art Newspaper.
Fantauzzo described Ledger as “charismatic, witty, sarcastic and a lot of fun; very positive about the future.”
Two brothers who own a transport company have been ordered to pay the family of Toby Keith $2.8 million for the wrongful death of the country star’s father.
Yahoo! News reports that Elias and Pedro Rodriguez had neglected to fix the badly damaged brakes of their charter bus, even after they were warned of the problem. Keith’s father, H.K. Covel, was driving down the interstate in March 2001 when he was bumped by another vehicle and sent veering into the charter bus, which was unable to stop in time.
Of the verdict, attorney Greg Dixon stated, “The jury found no fault on the part of Mr. Covel in the wreck that claimed his life.”
Covel left behind a wife and three children.
Hilary and Haylie Duff’s cheating father was ordered yesterday to pay $100,000 in support to mother Duff.
Susan Duff won her request for Bob Duff to pay her $20,000 per month for living expenses during their pending divorce proceedings. According to the Houston Chronicle, that’s in addition to the $100,000 in living expenses and legal fees he was previously ordered to pay, which he has not done.
Mrs. Duff testified that she was largely been supported by her famous daughters for the past five years. When asked if the Duff sisters would not continue to support her, Mrs. Duff snapped, “Of course they would, [but] it is not their job to pay for their father’s philandering and divorce.” An accountant told the Chronicle that the divorce is already approaching a cost of $1 million in legal fees.
The young Duffs have not testified in court, but have attended court in support of their mother.
