Miranda Cosgrove’s Bus Crash Is the Latest in Scary Celebrity Tour Bus Accidents
iCarly star/singer Miranda Cosgrove and her Dancing Crazy Tour members had a scare this morning, when their bus crashed into an overturned tractor-trailer on the road in Illinois. Fortunately, no one was killed, though Miranda broke her ankle and has to postpone the rest of her tour. But they got off easy compared to the plenty of celebrity tour buses have gotten into grislier accidents, often claiming the lives of innocent bystanders. More »
Crushable Books: Taboo’s ‘Fallin’ Up: Keep It On the Positive’
Taboo (real name: Jaime Gomez) is best known as “the guy in the Black Eyed Peas who isn’t Will.I.Am and kind of dresses like Neo from The Matrix.” So when a copy of his memoir, Fallin’ Up, landed on my desk, my immediate reaction was “Why?” But reading the book has given me some insight into who Taboo is and actually made me respect him. While his own story is interesting – he grew up Latino in East L.A., had a kid young, and met his future BEP bandmates when they were doing rap and B-boy battles – it’s, sadly, the parts of his book about other celebrities that are the most interesting.

Hey Rihanna, What’s Up With All The Fire At Awards Shows?
We’re starting to think Rihanna‘s fiery red hair is going to her, um, head. The Barbadian pop star has been the performer du jour this awards season, and every time she steps on stage it’s to a background of flames so intense we expect Kurt Russell and Billy Baldwin to leap from the audience with a 50-foot hose. Rihanna performed twice at the Grammy’s, once with Eminem and once with Drake. The first time around, she wore a flame-like dress and rocked out in front of a wall of fakey looking fire. With Drake, she stripped down and sang next to a real (or: real-looking) blaze. More »
Best Of: Jeff Bridges On ‘Saturday Night Live’
We know that Jeff Bridges is in Tron: Legacy and True Grit, which are both big movies this holiday season, but doesn’t all the DS he’s getting from the media lately seem a little…excessive? We know he’s The Dude and all, and no one is doubting he’s a great actor, but maybe Details UK could find someone else to both star in and design their December 2010 issue? Anyway, here was the best of Jeff Bridge with Lil Wayne and Eminem on Saturday Night Live last night. More »

Taylor Momsen Just Got Some Extra Points For Her XX/Rihanna Mashup
I’m not saying that I forgive Taylor Momsen for making it trendy to look like some sort of Courtney Love/Olsen twin hybrid, I’m just saying that the XX’s “Islands” is my favorite song that I tell people about, and Eminem/Rihanna’s “Love the Way You Lie” is my favorite song that I pretend I don’t like in front of friends, and then go home and listen to on a perpetual loop.
So Taylor’s acoustic mining of these two songs during a sit… More »

Video: Dominic Monaghan, Megan Fox Star In Eminem’s ‘Love the Way You Lie’
I’ve been having this weird reoccurring dream lately, where Dominic Monaghan and I are hanging out, either surfing or exploring this creepy house on a hill that I’ve dubbed “Synesthesia Mansion” because like, in every room you can taste colors and hear feelings, etc., etc. It’s very scary, but also fun because Dominic Monaghan is always such a joyful, impish presence. That’s just a really roundabout way of saying “Here’s that Megan Fox and Dominic Monaghan” PSA about domestic violence music video by Eminem.” More »
