• Bobby Shmurda Wants You to Shmoney Dance with New #ShmoneyGram App

    Bobby Shmurda goes back to the well that keeps on giving. The Shmoney dance has not died out yet, and Bobby and his team are taking full advantage of that fact. As reported by MTV, their latest move is to create an app where you can upload a picture of yourself to a website and your face will be superimposed onto one of several different people doing the Shmoney dance, like Shmurda himself, a soldier, Drake, James Harden and others.The app, titled the "#ShmoneyGram," allows you to upload a photo of your choice and creates GIFs of some of the most memorable Shmoney dance moments. It compiles them into a Shmoney dance GIF gallery, where you can see everyone else's Shmoney dance next to yours. The site clearly links to his single "Hot Nigga" and to his new EP "Shmurda She Wrote," which was released Monday, Nov. 10.

  • Bruce Springsteen Criticized for Singing Anti-War 'Fortunate Son' at Concert for Valor [WATCH]

    Bruce Springsteen is finding himself in a bit of trouble this morning following his performance at the Concert for Valor, the free Veteran’s Day concert held on the National Mall in Washington, D.C. Along with Dave Grohl and Zac Brown, Springsteen performed a rendition of Creedence Clearwater Revival’s 1969 classic “Fortunate Son,” whose anti-war message rubbed plenty of people the wrong way, with many feeling it was an inappropriate song choice at a concert honoring our nation’s veterans.In an editorial on conservative website "The Weekly Standard," Ethan Epstein wrote that Springsteen, Grohl and Brown's performance of "Fortunate Son" was "tone deaf" and a "terrible choice given that [the song] is, moreover, an anti-draft song, and this concert was largely organized to honor those who had volunteered to fight in Afghanistan and Iraq."Plenty of viewers also took to Twitter — of course — to voice their outrage, which you can check out below:

  • Jay-Z's Made in America May Cost Los Angeles Public $170,000

    The taxpayers of Los Angeles may be souring to Jay-Z and his Made in America festival. According to a report from the "Los Angeles Times," the city could be on the hook for $170,000 of the total bill for the festival.Aides to the mayor tell the "Times" that Live Nation, the promoter for the festival, was required to provide $500,000 to pay for police patrols, street closures, trash removal and other city services. The total bill for the festival is expected to reach close to $670,000, leaving the city to close the funding gap.Mayor Eric Garcetti was a big proponent in bringing the festival to Los Angeles and, according to "Billboard," "Says it shows L.A. is capable of hosting a huge outdoor concert."According to Carol Schatz, head of the downtown-based Central City Association, the economic impact cannot be simply measured in strict dollar amounts.

  • Khloé Kardashian Incites Social Media Controversy for Posting 'KKK' Joke on Instagram

    When Khloé Kardashian posted a meme to her Instagram account Tuesday, Nov. 11, we have to wonder what she was thinking. The image featured Khloé with her sisters Kim and Kourtney Kardashian all wearing white. It was captioned, "The only KKK ever to let black men in," and Khloé's comment was one word: "True."That is all it took to light up a debate that is still growing strong today. Making any comparison or reference to the Ku Klux Klan, an extremist white supremacist group, is thought to be in really bad taste.Khloé's post grabbed more than 405,000 likes and 26,000 comments in only two hours. While many of her supporters suggested that people just lighten up a little and see the humor in the actual reference, an equal number were offended by the comment. Many people believe the KKK never belongs as a punchline in any joke. Others totally got the fact that both Khloé and Kim have caught heat for only dating dark-skinned men.

  • Scott Peterson's Mistress Amber Frey Has Reportedly Never Gotten Her Life Together After Testifying Against Him

    It has been a long time since we have heard the name "Amber Frey." It may ring a distant bell for many because she was Scott Peterson's mistress. On Christmas Eve 2002, Peterson's pregnant wife Laci went missing in a case that dominated national headlines. Frey came forward pretty quickly once Peterson's face was plastered all over the place because she had been seeing him on the side. At the time Frey had no idea he was married or expecting a child, but went to police pretty quickly. It was eventually her testimony that helped prosecutors to not only convict Peterson in the murders of his wife and unborn son, but also to secure the death penalty against him.At the time of Peterson's 2004 conviction, Frey was a single mother working as a massage therapist, and so she decided to write a book about her side of the nightmare. While it landed on the bestseller list, Frey's life did not improve as one might have hoped. She is currently 38 and raising two children on her own. In a recent exclusive with Radar Online, her father, Ron Frey, claims his daughter has never been the same after dating Peterson.
