  • Miley Cyrus Performs New Song 'The Twinkle Song' at Art Basel [WATCH]

    Art Basel was not just a time for studio artists to show off their pieces. It was also a week for performance artists and musicians like Drake to show off their wild side for the sake of art and step outside their normal comfort zone. This is a perfect breeding ground for someone like the eccentric Miley Cyrus to perform a new song called "The Twinkle Song" she just wrote about her friend's just-deceased cat, via "Billboard."Cyrus stands on stage in a sparkling silver and purple wig and a silver, trimmed-down leotard performing the song for the first time outside of her own living room."I've never played by myself on a stage before and you've never played a song that I've only played in my living room before, so I'm a little nervous," Cyrus explained.Before sitting down in front of the piano on stage, she explained the inspiration behind the song. She had been having dreams about her friend's cat dying the night it did tragically died. She said, "I feel like her cat kind of told me what I was supposed to say to get her through it ... It was more therapy to me than anything."
  • Is Amal Clooney Pregnant? New Photos Causing Speculation to Intensify

    Is that a baby bump under Amal Clooney's coat? It depends on who you ask, and if it happens to be George Clooney, then do not expect an answer because he is notoriously silent on personal matters. But these photos from the couple's night out in West Hollywood this past weekend are sure raising eyebrows this morning, Dec. 8. George broke every rule he had for himself by marrying Amal a little more than two months ago, and now we are wondering if a baby on the way might have been what lit the fire under his feet.Until dating Amal, George seemed to have his pattern down to a science. He would pick out the hottest, most itty-bitty woman he was drawn to and then he would spoil her for about 18 months. Basically, just long enough for her to believe they possibly had a future, and once topics like marriage or babies came up, George was out the door and onto the next lady. Before Amal, his women all seemed to come with an expiration date, so how did he go from that to the opposite extreme?
  • Credit Card Companies Taking Over as Biggest Corporate Sponsors for Musicians According to Report; American Express and Citi Buy Up

    There was a time, only a few years ago, when beverage companies were the industry that musicians aimed to get a hold on. Pepsi's role as the Super Bowl halftime show sponsor still reflects the role of soda and beer in music advertising. According to a great new report from Billboard, credit card companies and the banks they affiliate with may have taken the advantage.
  • 'RHOBH' Brandi Glanville's Latest Boyfriend Dumped Her Via Email for Having Her Priorities Straight

    Brandi Glanville always ends up being one of the bright spots on Bravo's "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills." Sure, the network has super-hyped new soap star cast members Lisa Rinna and Eileen Davidson, but it is Glanville who has been sucking viewers into the show for several seasons now because she is the real deal. On a show filled with pretension, Glanville does not hide her humanness, which makes fans relate to her on a different level. Just yesterday the reality star announced on Twitter that her latest boyfriend dumped her — via email.That sounds like something straight out of an old "Sex and the City" episode, doesn't it? Apparently, the dude did not like the fact that Glanville's two boys with Eddie Cibrian will always be her first priority, and so she stepped over him publicly. The latest season of "RHOBH" is only a few episodes in and already Glanville has been seen attempting to patch things up with her one-time mentor Lisa Vanderpump and focus her attention on her girlfriends rather than desperately seeking Mr. Right.

  • Chris Brown Apologizes to Karrueche Tran, Model's Instagram Disabled After Reported to be Fake

    This past weekend was full of drama between Chris Brown and ex-flame Karrueche Tran. It all started Friday (Dec. 5) when Brown announced that he was single in front of a huge concert crowd in Los Angeles. The following day, the pair got into it on social media with Tran spouting off some encouraging words to her fans and Brown accusing her of having threesomes and going on dates with Drake.

  • A$AP Ferg, Cara Delevingne Walk-Off Sparks "Dope Walk" Movement From Fans [WATCH]

    Last month A$AP Ferg dropped his Ferg Forever mixtape, but one song in particular, the Stelios-produced track "Dope Walk," is making headlines because of a reference Ferg makes to model Cara Delevingne. "I'm on my gangster lean like a dope fiend / My walk's meaner than Cara Delevingne's / "Check out my walk because it's so amazing / Nothing like Bobby Shmurda's but I congratulate him / More like a gangsta lean, let's get this picture painted," Ferg raps on the braggadocious verse.
  • Bob Geldof and Band Aid 30: Media Can't Help but Wonder Where Paul McCartney's At

    You won't hear any complaints regarding a lack of talent on Band Aid 30, the new charity all-star band assembled by Bob Geldof to record "Do They Know It's Christmas" to raise funds for combatting Ebola in Africa: One Direction, Chris Martin of Coldplay, Ellie Goulding, Ed Sheeran...plenty have shown up and plenty have downloaded the single accordingly. One question still gets posed frequently to the Band Aid honcho however: Where's Paul McCartney? The former Beatle and still massive solo performer took part in the original recording during 1984 and came back for the 20th anniversary during 2004 (albeit skipping the smaller Band Aid II during 1989).
  • NFL Officials Fist Bump After Touchdown, Players Question Fairness of Calls

    The Buffalo Bills were upset with the referees Sunday, Dec. 7, after their comeback fell short in a 24-17 loss to the Denver Broncos. Following the game, multiple Bills players questioned the legitimacy of the officiating."It definitely felt like it was about 16 on 11," running back Anthony Dixon told ESPN. "But we can't make that an excuse. We did some things that we shouldn't have did. We can't be selfish like that. There were a couple selfish penalties by a couple of guys. We got to cut that out."Defensive back Nickell Robey was also pretty salty."Very frustrating," Robey said. "We understand that it's Denver. We understand that they are the AFC champions and all that other stuff. But at the end of the day, you have to call the game how it's supposed to be called. Some things just could have gone our way but they didn't. But I guess that's what happens when you're in someone else's territory."
