• Michael Eavis Says Fleetwood Mac and Queen Not among Glastonbury 2015 Headliners, Despite Bookies High Odds

    Michael Eavis gets more attention from British music media than any other individual (we reckon) thanks to his role in planning and organizing the Glastonbury Music Festival. Even we in the states get excited when the word "lineup" or "headliner" comes out of his mouth. He narrowed the list of possible headliners down by two, according to NME, stating that Fleetwood Mac and Queen were definitely out of the running.

  • T-Pain Proves He Can Sing Without Auto-Tune In New NPR Tiny Desk Concert Performance [WATCH]

    T-Pain ruled the charts in the mid-2000s. His use of Auto-Tune, which gave his voice a futuristic, robotic sound, made his songs instantly recognizable and gave way to a trend that spanned pop, R&B, and hip-hop. He wasn't the first person to use the software — he originally got the idea to brand himself with auto-tune after noticing it on a Jennifer Lopez remix — but he became the face of the style and was considered an innovator. He rode the auto-tune trend until around 2010, when people started to mock the art.

  • Taylor Swift Holds '1989' from Spotify, But Other Bands Shouldn't Expect to Go Platinum Using the Same Strategy

    Perhaps you've heard: Taylor Swift is going to dominate the Billboard charts when official results come out next Wednesday. Initial projects suggested 1989 would sell between 800,000 and 900,000 copies, and that estimate has since been upped to 1.2 million. That's more than three times more than the next highest debut this year (Coldplay's Ghost Stories). One aspect of the album that's largely been skipped over is Swift/Big Machine's decision not to offer the record on Spotify. Many who were aware suggest this as proof that the streaming trend can be beaten. Never has "correlation doesn't equal causation" been more true.

  • Matt Barnes Split from 'Basketball Wives LA's' Gloria Govan Isn't Amicable after She Forged His Signature on Loan Documents

    We told you a few weeks ago that "Basketball Wives L.A." star Gloria Govan had recently split from Matt Barnes over "trust issues." Naturally, everyone initially assumed there must have been some infidelity — again — but that notion went out the window pretty quickly when it was learned that Govan reportedly forged her husbands' signature on legal documents to secure a loan for $150,000. The kicker? Barnes found out when Nina Rawls decided to sue the couple for non-payment.

  • Kanye West Is Ready to Move to Paris with North West, Leaving Kim Kardashian Behind to Focus on Her Image and Career in LA

    Kim Kardashian has not exactly had much success when it comes to love. Kanye West is her third husband, and the fact they share a daughter, North West, might be the main thing that prevents her from pulling the plug on their already shaky union. The thing is, for once she is dealing with a man who is as headstrong and determined to do things their way as she is, so their clashes have been epic. According to "Radar Online," the most recent one occurred last week on the night of her birthday bash, and it left Kardashian completely reeling. West loves his life in Paris — do not forget he chose to abandon Kardashian for half her pregnancy in order to spend his time in the City of Lights — and has been dropping hints for a while now about wanting to relocate there full time. Until now, Kardashian has kind of shrugged off the idea because her life, family and career is based in Los Angeles, but finally it seems these two have hit a crossroads.

  • 'RHONJ's' Teresa Giudice Infuriates Her Husband Joe Giudice by Dropping $10,000 on a Music Video for Her Daughter Gia's Girl Group '3KT'

    "The Real Housewives of New Jersey's" Teresa Giudice is just several weeks away from reporting to a Connecticut prison camp after pleading guilty to a string of financial crimes. She is also currently $13.5 million in debt, but none of that mattered when it was time to bank roll her 13-year-old daughter Gia Guidice's music video. Apparently, Gia and her two besties have formed a girl group called 3KT and they not only remade Britney Spears's hit song "Circus," but decided they needed a cool video to go along with it. Teresa dropped the $10,000 completely against her husband Joe Giudice's wishes.

  • "Russian Facebook" vKontakte Tops RIAA's List of Most Active Music Pirating Sites

    The RIAA has released a list of the world's most active music piracy sites and you may be surprised by what site took the top spot (we were). Although The Pirate Bay, probably the most popular torrenting site in the United States came in at no. 3, according to Digital Music News, the busiest place for pirates was vKontakte, a social media site often referred to as "the Russian Facebook."

  • Queen Elizabeth Forced Kate Middleton Back to Work after a Collapse Due to Severe Sickness: Royal Duty Comes First!

    Kate Middleton may be royalty, but that has not made her exempt from a serious bout of morning sickness while carrying baby No. 2. We know Middleton was also briefly sick while carrying Prince George nearly two years ago, but this time around seems more serious. Several reports are now saying the duchess recently collapsed after a long night of sickness, leaving Prince William to insist his wife have an aide nearby at all times. Middleton has also taken several weeks off from her royal duties do to her sickness, but Queen Elizabeth recently insisted it was time for Middleton to begin showing up again. In her mind, royal duty comes first — period.
