Scott Weiland was sentenced today to 192 hours in county jail for his November DUI arrest. This is his second DUI offense, so you know they really had to throw the book at him, right?
He was ordered by the court to complete an 18-month alcohol program and pay almost $2,000 in fines. He will also be put on a four-year summary probation.
Tsk, tsk.
Drinking and driving is bad….when will you learn?

Tell me you’re not sick of seeing this heffer all over the place with her diva-like poses and her retarded nine person entourage and I’ll call you a liar right now.
I’ve had enough of Mariah Carey. I’m officially boycotting her ridiculousness, because it’s all going to her head.
And if she does this dumb freaking “hold your glasses” pose one more time, I think I’m going to vomit.
/rant off
Who are you sick of?
Have you played the Guitar Hero 3 Def Leppard content yet?
by Roberta Ferguson on Apr.28, 2008, under articles
This isn’t me in the youtube video, obviously. But have you played the Def Leppard downloadable content yet?
The three songs are Foolin’ Rock of Ages, Photograph, and Nine Lives.
If you haven’t played these yet and you’re an 80′s music buff, then you’re doing yourself a disservice. Hint, hint. And they’re live, too.
And the new album Songs from the Sparkle Lounge comes out tomorrow……woot!
Mariah Carey’s “backing track” messed up
by Roberta Ferguson on Apr.26, 2008, under articles
Sure it’s her backing track and not a pre-recorded Mariah singing. Mariah Carey totally pulled an Ashlee Simpson on us.
It’s okay this time, Mariah, but don’t let it happen again, k?
New Rihanna video: Take A Bow

What do you think?
I wonder if Rihanna is still denying the rumors that she’s dating Chris Brown. Don’t you think she should just admit it already.

Cuz the world needs more Jane’s Addiction

Perry Farrell was thrillled to sing for the newly reunited Jane’s Addiction at the NME Awards in L.A., last night. The band performed and received the Godlike Genius Award.
Jane Perry says, “Here we go again. You up for it…? I do that in my living room in my underpants and it’s not as much fun.”
Pete Wentz is a weirdo with a cause
by Roberta Ferguson on Apr.24, 2008, under articles
I just can’t get enough of writing about this clown with too much mousse.
Pete Wentz got political at last night’s NME Awards in L.A. He scribbled “Coltan is a conflict diamond” on his shirt. That was his part of the silent protest against the mining of coltan diamonds in Africa.
Wentz told reporters, “People have got to be careful what they buy.”
The greasy haired one mentioned that the engagement ring he bought that lousy singer his fiance was not a conflict diamond.

My my my…that’s a lot of crack money!!
Apparently Amy Winehouse and her hubby’s relationship has some rockin’ details for them to be offered a cool two mil to put it all on paper.
And……..Amy was just voted one of the top heroines for women under 25!! Who knew? Maybe they should change that to the top heroin users???
Amy Winehouse is a total potty mouth

She needs to have her mouth washed out with soap!! But the paparazzi would film that too.
First new Donna Summer album in 17 years, Crayons
by Roberta Ferguson on Apr.22, 2008, under articles

“I wanted this album to have a lot of different directions on it, I did not want it to be any one baby. I just wanted it to be a sampler of flavors and influences from all over the world. There’s a touch of this, a little smidgeon of that, a dash of something else … like when you’re cooking.” – Donna Summer
Crayons with all its songs co-written by Donna Summer, is an international banquet of musical delights and surprises. Singer/songwriter/pop culture icon Donna Summer has been working hard on Crayons, her bold and long-awaited new collection of songs, the artist’s first full-length studio album of newly-penned material since 1991′s “Mistaken Identity” and her first new release since “VH1 Presents: Live & More Encore!,” the CD (and DVD) companion to her top-rated VH1 television special which returned her to the Billboard Top 200 in 1999.
The arrival of a new Donna Summer album is a major musical event and Crayons is a worthy addition to one of the world’s most influential musical catalogs. Five-time Grammy winner, Donna Summer, maintains an unbroken string of hits throughout the 70s and 80s, most of which she wrote. Donna holds the record for most consecutive double albums to hit #1 on the Billboard charts (3) and first female to have four #1 singles in a 12 month period; 3 as a solo artist and one as a duo with Barbara Streisand.
Songs on Crayons run the musical gamut from “a really real pop pop song” like “The Science of Love,” to retro-modern “dance-oriented” tracks like “I’m A Fire,“ to the “socially conscious” “Bring Down The Reign” and the world-music-flavored “Driving Down Brazil.â€
With the album’s centerpiece ballad, “Be Myself Again,” the artist creates the album’s most intimate and revelatory musical meditation. “What I wanted to do,” she says, “is strip down a song. I wanted it to be a cappella. There’s always so much hoopla around the voice, I wanted to do a song where there’s no hoopla. There’s just you and the audience listening to somebody who’s just singing to themselves, singing about the intimate parts of what it has taken to do what they do. The thing to do is stay connected to the true self and that’s really difficult in show business. That’s what the song is about.”

This song is a favorite of mine, so I thought it would be appropriate for Earth Day.

Well, that’s how her fans are feeling right about now.
Perez Hilton either has a reader that can’t spell for crap or the poor guy needs spelling lessons…but that’s beside the point, right?
Apparently, Mariah Carey’s fans were “guarenteed” a meet and greet and she left at 1am with 100 fans still standing there, and went home.
She really loves her lambs now doesn’t she?
Did David Cook get the sympathy votes on American Idol?
by Roberta Ferguson on Apr.16, 2008, under articles
Sure it was a really great performance and he did it all without having to bother with any high notes.
First is my disclaimer, I really like David Cook as a singer. His voice is just awesome. And having his brother there, who’s suffering from brain cancer didn’t hurt his bid to be the American Idol, either, though, now did it?
I hope he wins….either that or the hot little dread boy.
