VIDEO: Usher Gets Kicked in Face, Laughs About It
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Concerts / Tours, Videos, R&B / Soul,
One Usher fan had a moment with the singer this week that neither she nor he will ever forget.
Monday night at Madison Square Garden, the entertainer invited a concertgoer on to the stage during his show. Unfortunately, what should have been a romantic serenade turned into a painful memory for both parties. (Cue the tape to the 2:50 mark to see the awkward moment.)
Despite being kicked in the face, Usher says he has "no hard feelings" about the event. "In all my years, this is one of the most interesting experiences. I got a kick out of it!" he claimed to Us Weekly. "It looked worse than it actually was. My audience and I got a good laugh."
"Wherever you are baby, don't feel bad," he added.

Kanye West Cancels Today Show Concert
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Artist News, Concerts / Tours, Gossip, Performances, Videos,
Although he's made some peace with former President George W. Bush, Kanye West now has a new target for his frustration: the Today show.
During a pre-taped interview that aired Thursday, Kanye became bothered by some video that was rolling during his chat. As Matt Lauer and West were comparing the backlash he received after the MTV Awards to the flak Bush received post-Hurricane Katrina, NBC chose to show the clip of that famous Kanye/Taylor Swift moment.
That decision caught Kanye by surprise -- and he made sure everyone knew he didn't like it. (Cue the video to the 6:30 mark.)

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Artist News, Concerts / Tours, Gossip, Pop,
The Jonas Brothers will have to go without a warm-up act during their international tour.
Singer Demi Lovato -- who had been performing with the boys -- abruptly exited the tour over the weekend to cope with "emotional and physical" issues.
Lovato, who has openly talked about being bullied in her past, reportedly made the decision to seek treatment following a fight with a female dancer.
Due to the timing of her departure, Demi will not be replaced on the last few dates of the tour. The Jonas Brothers are next scheduled to perform in Santiago, Chile on Thursday.

Prince to Headline at Glastonbury
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Artist News, Concerts / Tours, Pop, R&B / Soul, Rock,
Prince is set to headline next year's Glastonbury festival.
The "Purple Rain" hitmaker has reportedly taken one of the top slots at the UK music festival -- one of Europe's largest -- with U2 and Coldplay also being lined up by organizer Michael Eavis.
"Michael was very keen to get the line-up sorted early and is over the moon at securing such massive acts. He is a huge fan of Prince and has been trying to nab him for years," a source told The Sun. "The fact it's been tied up so quickly is a big, but welcome, shock."
Rockers U2 were forced to pull out of their first-ever appearance at Glastonbury earlier this year after frontman Bono injured his back. Cartoon-led pop band Gorillaz stepped in to replace the band as headliners at the last minute.
