Notoriously *kewl* and edgy global lifestyle brand VICE launched its newly integrated website Vice.com last night with a party that may have cost almost as much as that domain name. It had Rick Ross, Death From Above 1979, several tons of free alcohol, and a whole bunch of giant balloons. Did I mention it had RICK ROSS? More »
Video: Amy Winehouse’s Comeback Show Bombs Big Time

Snap This: Taylor Momsen Flashes Her Breasts, Horrifies Us
Is Taylor Momsen 18 yet? She isn’t, we know that, but can we pretend she’s an adult for the sake of feeling less weird about the fact that she flashed the crowd at a Pretty Reckless concert in England? Here’s why this image is particularly unsettling: Imagine someone like Lady Gaga or Courtney Love or even Lita Ford pulling something like this. Midway through a set, rockstar cred blazing; we bet they’re not smiling like Taylor’s smiling in this photo — a teenager slyly giddy with the “subversive act” she’s getting away with. Is she a woman confident enough in her sexuality to incorporate that as part of her act? Nope, she’s a child playing grown-up with some pretty messed up stuff, and it’s written (in eyeliner) all over her face. More »

There were reports that fans were climbing on roofs, throwing bottles, and generally being rowdy. (You can see some… More »

American Idolstock
Seems more and more people are enjoying seeing the American Idols in concert, (or they could just enjoy Pop-Tarts).
GRAND PRAIRIE – Two years ago, Nokia Theatre was about half full when the American Idol kids came to town. Last year, more fans showed up, but seats were still to be had in the rafters. This year’s concert, which took place Thursday night, sold out almost immediately. They added an additional show, scheduled for tonight. It also sold out.
So by 2010,… More »
