Well, this is unexpected. Miley Cyrus complained on the radio yesterday that she was denied a meeting with Radiohead at the Grammys last January. Seems the teen popper is “obsessed” with the critically-hailed British combo, and she wanted to give them the same thrill countless little kids have given her by shrieking in their presence. [...]

It’s my first Oscars. And it’s my first being an Oscar boyfriend. ” Although John will happily serve as Jen’s plus [...]
New Mom M.I.A.: Performing From Bed At Oscars?
Even though she just gave birth to a baby boy less than a week ago, producers of the Oscars ceremony desperately want M.I.A. to perform at Sunday’s Academy Awards, even if it means singing lying down. “She’s eager to perform,” said Oscars producer Laurence Mark, “We’ve said things like ‘We’re willing to have her enter [...]
M.I.A. Announces Baby On MySpace
If you thought big-bellied M.I.A. looked like her water was about to break during her Grammys performance … you were right. The singer went into early labor hours after taking the stage in a cow-miniskirt costume that brilliantly oozed sex appeal while drawing attention to her most pregnant features. According to a blog entry on [...]
Flashback Lunch: Robin Thicke Really Is Alan Thicke’s Son
After watching Robin Thicke perform with Lil’ Wayne at the Grammys last night, you might find it hard to believe that the sexy crooner is the son of Growing Pains dad Alan Thicke. But here they are in 1991, Robin already looking slick despite his adolescent acne. The pair are still close, too—Robin sang at [...]
2009 Grammy Winners: The Fogey’s Curse Strikes Again!
While Scandalist is proud to announce that we predicted seventeen of last night’s Grammy winners, we’re still a little embarrassed. We couldn’t have guessed that the NARAS would pick the lesser-known Adele over Duffy for two awards, or that they’d love John Mayer‘s Rock Vocal even more than Bruce Springsteen‘s. But we’re disappointed that we [...]
Blink-182 Back Together, May Open For Green Day
Four years after an acrimonious split, Blink-182 announced at the Grammys last night that they’re returning to the studio to record another album. Guitarist Tom DeLonge left the group in 2005 to start Angels & Airwaves, leaving bassist Mark Hoppus and drummer Travis Barker to record as +44. Bad blood brewed between the factions until [...]
Top 10 Hottest Grammy GILFS [Grammy Stars We'd Like To F*ck]
The Grammys threw its best awards show in recent memory last night — despite last-minute cancellations by Chris Brown and Rihanna, both of whom were scheduled to perform. Jennifer Hudson‘s highly emotional singing helped fill the void as did an excellent set by a very pregant M.I.A. But we loved this year’s show mostly because [...]
Chris Brown Surrenders To Police, Out On $50,000 Bail
Earlier today, we informed you that Chris Brown was being investigated for battery — allegedly a felony charge of domestic violence. While it’s not known for certain whether he beat girlfriend Rihanna, reports are circulating that he surrendered to police at 7 p.m. and then was released after making a bail set at $50,000. Both [...]
Top 10 Most Hideous Grammy Outfits
A heartbreakingly emotional performance by Jennifer Hudson and an energetic collaboration between a very pregant M.I.A. and today’s best rappers (Lil Wayne, Jay-Z, T.I. and Kanye West) made the 51st annual Grammy Awards much less boring than we had anticipated. Another factor contributing to our gawking pleasure: artists wearing hideous outfits, from Cyndi Lauper‘s hooker-esque [...]
