Nicole Scherzinger, yes the former Pussycat Dolls lead singer and X-Factor judge, should probably keep a few things regarding her career on the low, and by the low we mean never speaking of it. Ever. In no way does it benefit her to admit to passing on three songs that went on to become major hits for artists smart enough not to turn them down. Read more…
Any type of summer sounds good right about now as we weather the brutal NYC winter, but a legendary summer, well, there’s no competing with that. The buzzing Justin Timberlake and Jay-Z tour rumors can be laid to rest because it’s really happening. Read more…
“Pop music is cool again,” said 1/2 of the duo Tegan & Sara on Big Morning Buzz Live. “I think that people were scared to call music pop until recently because pop meant not very good.” Our favorite sister girl group took the stage to perform Heartthrob‘s hits “Closer” and The Con’s “Back In Your Head” with guitars in hand. Plucking away the sisters harmonize “I just want back in your head.” Read more…
Rita Ora turned down her chance to become the voice for her country after auditioning for Eurovision: Your Country Needs You at the age of 18. The judges were blown away by a young Rita, but for whatever reason–perhaps she thought bigger things were in store for her–she said thanks, but no thanks. Read more…
In today’s microwave culture instant celebrities are made from a single catchy YouTube video. Whether the “artist” has actual talent matters little if they can churn out a Billboard top 10.

The Brit Awards are underway in London with a hefty lineup of some of our favorite Brits. And what’s a British awards show without a performance by the very American Justin Timberlake? It’s all love. Music transcends. You Oughta Know artist Emeli Sande won big for British Female Solo Artist. One Direction took the stage while Harry gazed into Taylor Swift‘s eyes the entire time (we’re totally making that up) as she sat in the audience writing her next song (yeah, we made that up too). T. Swift also performed in what looks like a wedding gown. Other notables Rita Ora, Frank Ocean, Jessie Ware and Lana Del Rey graced the red carpet. What was up with all the black this year? Boring! Meanwhile Jessie J stole the show with her side peek-a-boob. Check out our gallery of the best of the Brit Awards.
Let’s face the facts: We knew Beyonce wasn’t going to reveal anything new in Life Is But a Dream. That didn’t keep 1.8 million viewers from tuning in to HBO Saturday night to watch the megastar talk about herself for 90 minutes. Read more…
Frank Ocean doesn’t have time for petty fights with that huge pop star who shall remain nameless. He’s got a new album to complete. There’s also the hard task of finding space for the two Grammy awards he won while his enemy who shall remain nameless looked on. Read more…
Clive Davis‘s memoir is stirring up drama. And to think rappers get the bad rep for beefs. Kelly Clarkson cleared up what she believes to be some inaccuracies in Mr. Davis’s book on her blog. Clive may be old, but his memory hasn’t failed him on exactly what happened. Read more…
