On Conan O’Brien’s final “Tonight Show”, he said that if HBO were to do a movie based on his life, he would want actress Tilda Swinton to play him.

When a reporter made the offer to Tilda, while at Sundance, she said, “I’ve heard about Conan! I’m so thrilled.”

On whether or not she would do it, she responded, “I would just be only too happy. Yes, yes, yes, absolutely.”

How cute. I would love to see that come to fruition!

Kesha bribed Prince’s gardener with five dollars

by on Jan.25, 2010, under articles

Before Kesha got a record deal, she was trying to slip her demo to anyone who would listen, including the Purple One, Prince.

She reportedly paid Prince’s gardener five dollars to allow her inside his house so that she could leave her demo there, wrapped up in a nice purple bow.

Unfortunately for her, the “Purple Rain” singer never called her. Unfortunately for him, she blew up on the charts regardless.

She has most recently knocked Susan Boyle off of the charts with her new album, “Animal”. Of that, she said, “I feel kind of bad, but Susan had six weeks at number one. That’s a really long time.”

The Scorpions say goodbye to music

by on Jan.25, 2010, under articles

Legendary “Rock You Like A Hurricane” rockers The Scorpions are saying farewell to the music industry after 40 years in the business. But not before embarking on a two-year world tour.

They made the official announcement on their website, but let fans know that they will have the chance to say goodbye, as they are touring for the next two years, before hanging up their guitars.

A statement on their website says, “It was always our pleasure, our purpose in life, our passion and we were fortunate enough to make music for you – whether it was live on stage or in the studio, creating new songs. While we were working on our album these past few months, we could literally feel how powerful and creative our work was – and how much fun we were still having, in the process. But there was also something else. We want to end the Scorpions extraordinary career on a high note. We are extremely grateful for the fact that we still have the same passion for music we’ve always had since the beginning. This is why, especially now, we agree we have reached the end of the road. We finish our career with an album we consider to be one of the best we have ever recorded and with a tour that will start in our home country Germany and take us to five different continents over the next few years. We want you, our fans, to be the first to know about this. Thank you for your never-ending support throughout the years!”

Will you go see them on their farewell tour?

That’s King Justin Dior Combs to you, commoner

by on Jan.25, 2010, under articles

Sean Combs threw an expensive bash for his son, Justin Dior’s sweet 16 birthday party. The party was complete with celebrities and all of the trimmings. By celebrities, I mean D-Listers and by all of the trimmings, I mean a jazzed up BK crown, throne and a Maybach.

Wanna talk about being spoiled rotten?

Good Charlotte scraps ‘Cardiology’; Re-records album

by on Jan.25, 2010, under articles

Good Charlotte has scrapped their fifth studio album, “Cardiology” and is re-recording the entire thing. The album, which was reportedly ready to be released in 2009, was said to be all “connected to the heart”, thus the name.

In a post on their official website, they break it down for us:

FINALLY……It feels right. Settle in guys, I have some explaining to do. I haven’t written this Blog post yet because I wasn’t in the right headspace to. We had a very strange End to 2009. We went in the studio for over 2 months recording a record we scrapped. We lost A DEAR DEAR Friend. I kind of lost my mind. For a moment. Such is life though right? What you do with these situations, thats where YOU decide what your gonna make of yourself right? Right.

So here we are. We decided we are the Luckiest Guys in the world to get to live our dreams like this. Getting to be creative everyday and make music. This record has been the strangest, most exciting, frustrating,emotional, challenging and most fun experience i have ever had in my life. That is why i know it is a special one. GC has never meant so much to me. i can’t explain why. I don’t know its all i have, all I really want. Watching our friends A7X say good-bye to the Rev a few weeks ago, just confirmed everything for me. Those guys are brothers. They are the only other band i have met that are just like us. Family. I realized that life is precious and every day i get to spend with Joel and Billy and Paul and Deano and our crew is really special. here IS ONE of my favorite pics.

The album is 2007′s long-awaited followup to “Good Morning Revival”.

by on Jan.24, 2010, under articles

R&B songstress Alicia Keys has denied reports that she is set to retire in 2011 when she turns 30.

She said that she will go on making music, despite reports that she is ready to hang up the microphone for good.

She said, “I was just saying that I would like the option to be able to retire by 30. I feel very blessed…but I definitely have so much more to do. I have so many things that I want to do, so many more things I want to get involved in, important things I want to do…I have to perform, I love it so much.”

I’m glad that she’s not retiring, I love her music. She’s such a phenomenal singer.
