• Naomi Campbell Isn't a Fan of Young Models That are an Overnight Success

    Naomi Campbell's longstanding presence in the entertainment industry is the kind of career that many dream of but few manage to attain. Even with her history of having a really bad temper, she still works. Campbell started out as a model but she's currently turning heads for her already scene-stealing role on "Empire." She also recently signed to do an upcoming biopic based on the life of Richard Pryor. Needless to say, she's feeling pretty fortunate these days. She is not, however, a fan of young models that are overnight success stories.

  • Rihanna, Kanye West, Paul McCartney New Song 'FourFiveSeconds' - Beatle is Co-Producer on Yeezy's Album [LISTEN]

    There's some form of expectation that a track featuring Rihanna, Kanye West and Paul McCartney is going to be a pop sensation. "FourFiveSeconds" proves that great musical minds speak the same language, regardless of race and genre preferences. Like its West/McCartney predecessor, "Only One," the new track opts for a stripped-down production. The former Beatle strums an acoustic guitar while Rihanna carries the tune, giving West a few pockets to add his two cents.

  • 5 Songs Banned in Sports: "CoCo" by O.T. Genasis, "Dixieland Delight" by Alabama, "Sweet Caroline and More

    Klay Thompson went HAM this week when his Golden State Warriors faced the Sacramento Kings last week: The shooting guard scored 37 points during the third quarter, setting the record for scoring in just one period, along with the record for most 3-pointers during one quarter.

Here are five songs that have gotten banned in sports and how they offended (meanwhile you can also check out a shortened video of Thompson's performance here via Sports Illustrated).

  • Australian Music Festival Fails: 5 Events Suffering Bad Luck and Bad Organization in Memory of Sunbury

    Australia is one of the toughest places to stage a music festival due to its relative isolation from the rest of the world. There's plenty of fans to provide funding for a limited number of events but it's still tough to draw (and pay) huge acts for traveling so far for what's most likely to be just on appearance (versus a longer tour scenario, where headliners such as Katy Perry can make oodles of cash). Here are five festivals that have undergone downsizing down under recently.
