Lollapolloza directed fans to an image via its Twitter and Facebook pages today to a roster with only the “O”s in place. Looking at the image seems to confirm what headliners will be performing at this summer’s 2010 festival. Bands such as Soundgarden, Green Day, Lady Gaga, Phoenix, The Strokes and Arcade Fire are among some that can be designated. Devo, Hot Chip and Spoon are also... 

Ricky Martin puts to rest a longtime rumor by confirming on his Web site that he is in fact gay. “I am proud to say that I am a fortunate homosexual man. I am very blessed to be who I am,” he wrote. This will probably surprise no one–at least it didn’t surprise me. Martin came bursting on the scene in the 90s with his swiveling hips and released a slew of insanely popular,... 

Lady Gaga’s ex-producer/ex-boyfriend, Rob Fusari, is suing the “Bad Romance” singer claiming that she owes him merchandising fees and royalties from co-writing four songs on The Fame as well as helping create her name. Fusari said that Gaga breached a contract they had together back in 2006. He is seeking $30 million. Gaga is now countersuing with her own claim that she was tricked... 

No dental emergency nor courthouse fire can save Lil Wayne now. The rapper was sentenced to one year in jail and began serving his time immediately following the court hearing today. Wayne will serve his sentence at Rikers Island jail in New York. He was arrested in July 2007 for carrying a loaded .40 caliber semiautomatic gun on his tour bus. “He knew what he had to do, and he’s doing... 

It was the boys’ turn last night on American Idol and for the most part, it wasn’t pretty. I had high expectations for this crew of men and most of them let me down. There were some surprises, though. Simon wore a button down and Ellen was more critical of the performances ( it was good to see that she doesn’t love just anybody). But let’s get down to business. Todrick Hall–First... 

Jenny is going to have to find a new block … for her record that is. Lopez announced that she has split from Sony/Epic, her record label of more than a decade. Lopez released her debut album On The 6 in 1999 that went on to sell more than three million records. She went on to release several other records that had disappointing record sales. Her latest album, Love? was to be released by Sony/Epic... 

Last night the ladies of American Idol took the stage for the first time this season and the results were lackluster for the hype of the women’s talent this season. My early favorites tend to be on the men’s side, but now that I’ve seen the girls perform, I can honestly say I’m excited about a few. If you watched last night, you may have noticed something that differs from... 

The American Idol race is poised to be a tight one this season as last night the judges revealed their choices for the top 24 finalists. However, the reveal was not without drama and heartbreak. Last night we finally saw the return of Angela Martin, the single mother from Chicago who has been plagued with trauma every season she auditions. The producers highlighted her story in the original audition,... 

Jay-z is not a fan of classic remakes and “We Are The World” is no exception. The Michael Jackson/Lionel Richie/Quincy Jones collaboration, which originally debuted in 1985 as a charity song for Africa, was remade and debuted during the Olympic opening ceremonies. “I know everybody is gonna take this wrong: ‘We Are the World,’ I love it, and I understand the point and... 

My favorite martian Lil Wayne will be sentenced this afternoon for gun possession charges. His sentence is part of a plea bargain that reduced jail time from 15 years to just one. With good behavior, Wayne may only serve about eight months. Wayne is expected to begin serving his sentence immediately after his sentencing hearing. He will serve his time in the New York City jail system, the same that... 

Country star Carrie Underwood will make her big screen debut in the new film Soul Surfer. The movie is based on the true story of 13-year-old surfer Bethany Hamilton who lost her arm in a shark attack and went on to compete and win professional championships. Underwood will play a church youth leader and will star alongside Dennis Quaid and Helen Hunt. This may be her first big screen job, but Underwood... 

Looks like time is ticking for doctor Conrad Murray. Today is shaping up to be his last day of freedom as he is rumored to be surrendering to police tomorrow. Murray, who was Michael Jackson’s personal physician, is said to be charged with involuntary manslaughter in the death of the pop icon. According to ABC News, Murray is expected to be arraigned at 1:30 p.m. Friday at the LAX courthouse.... 

It was ladies night at the Grammy awards last night. Beyonce, who led with the most nominations, along with Taylor Swift and Lady Gaga promised a close race in the categories they were up against each other. But it was Swift who took home the night’s top honor: Album of the Year. A thrilled and emotional Swift took the stage and vowed to remember this moment for her entire life. “When... 

If you read this site often, then you may know I am a huge American Idol fan. I have been complacent in my commenting on the debut of this new season. The auditions are leaving me uninspired to write anything of substance … until last night. Ryan and the gang went home to L.A. where there should have been a plethora of talent. Wrong. Is it just me or are the auditions this season particuarly...
