  • Jimmy Fallon's 'Lip Sync Battle' to Get Spin-Off Show on Spike TV: Premiere April

    One of Jimmy Fallon's most popular "Late Night" and "Tonight Show" games, Lip Sync Battle, is getting its own TV show. Spike TV will be the network home for "Lip Sync Battle," slated for an April premiere. According to "Rolling Stone," actors Stephen Merchant and John Krasinski, both of whom have played the game with Fallon, created the concept with Emily Blunt. If you missed the lip-sync battles with Fallon, then let's recap. Krasinski competed against the host on Late Night, performing a hilarious rendition of Katy Perry's "Teenage Dream." Fallon then invited Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Merchant for a bout as well. That epic battle saw Merchant taking on "Boom! Shake the Room" by DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince and Gordon-Levitt mouthing "Tiny Dancer" by Elton John. Paul Rudd helped bring the game to "The Tonight Show," performing Tina Turner's "You Better Be Good to Me" and Queen's "Don't Stop Me Now." Emma Stone tore through Blues Traveler's "Hook" and DJ Khaled's "All I Do Is Win," and Fallon most recently took on The Voice judges Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani. Like most of Fallon's games, it is a pleasure to watch.

  • Diplo, Ex-Girlfriend Kathryn Lockhart Welcome 2nd Son; Twitter Feud with Lorde, Taylor Swift Continues

    Diplo is a father, again. The DJ/producer, aka Thomas Wesley Pentz, welcomed his second son with ex-girlfriend Kathryn Lockhart into the world recently. Lazer Lee Louis Pentz weighed 8 pounds 10 ounces at the time of birth, "Us Weekly" reports. The pair's first child, Lockett, was born in 2010. As of late, Diplo has been romantically linked to Katy Perry, although those rumors have not been confirmed. They were seen publicly at Coachella in April, and over the summer Perry went to Jamaica with the EDM artist to work on new, reggae-infused music. "The funniest moment was having Katy Perry in the studio singing 'woke up this morning feeling so blessed' and writing a whole song to the Rootsman Riddim while Jesse did the dub for 'Modern Day Judas,'" Walshy Fire, who was also in the studio with the pair, said. "Watching her catch that reggae vibe was the best part of recording." Diplo has been caught up in a social media scuffle lately with Taylor Swift and Lorde. A few days ago, the producer tweeted, "Someone should make a kickstarter to get taylor swift a booty." The campaign has not even raised $100 yet.

  • Katy Perry 'Follow Your Arrow': Pop Star Passed on Song

    Kacey Musgraves just won Song of the Year at the CMA Awards for her open-minded tune "Follow Your Arrow." But she says former tourmate Katy Perry initially turned the song down. "Honestly, it sounds like something you would sing," Perry said, according to Musgrave in an interview with "People." "You should keep it." The song touches on a couple controversial topics — same-sex marriage and marijuana use — so Musgraves did not expect much airplay. "I knew it wasn't going to be a radio song — and it was banned in a lot of places — so it's kind of crazy to me that it's nominated for a CMA," she said before the song won. "But if there are kids in small towns — or big towns — who don't feel like they belong, and this song gives them courage to walk taller, that's better than any award I can ever hope to win."
