Although many speculated high temperatures were responsible for Lady Gaga‘s recent performance in Auckland, New Zealand, the singer has since set the record straight.
In an interview with an Australian radio station, the 23-year-old explained that simple exhaustion was what caused her to nearly collapse during that March 13 concert.
“I was so jetlagged, I got in the night before and the jetlag just really caught up with me. I passed out about three times on stage that night but I got myself to the floor,” she recalled.

Miley Cyrus to Mentor American Idol Contestants
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Artist News, Gossip, Performances, Pop,
They might not be singing songs from teen idols anymore, but they are going to be mentored by one anyway.
It’s just been announced that American Idol’s remaining 11 contestants will be following up Rolling Stones week with a “Billboard #1 Hits”-themed show. Who will be on hand to help guide the singers on their quest for fame? Someone who’s not even old enough to be considered an adult yet: 17-year-old Miley Cyrus.
Cyrus’ mentoring duties on Tuesday will be followed up by a performance from the singer on Wednesday. (That’s when she’ll sing “When I Look at You,” a song from her upcoming movie The Last Song.) Meanwhile, two other teen stars are also scheduled to sing during this week’s results show. Real-life couple Joe Jonas and Demi Lovato will be on hand to perform “Make A Wave” together.

As hard you might find it to believe, Ke$ha wasn’t always brushing her teeth with a bottle of Jack. At one point in her life, she was just your average teenager who liked to sing Radiohead at her middle school talent shows. (Granted, she could have still been drinking whiskey at the time.)
After watching 13-year-old Kesha Sebert perform “Karma Police,” answer this: Was Jessica Simpson’s high-waisted jeans look was inspired by this moment?

VIDEO: John Mayer Invites 11-Year-Old to Play During Concert
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Gossip, Performances, Videos, Blues, Rock,
If you find yourself emotional after watching this video, it won’t be because John Mayer’s delivering an apology.
Over the weekend, the singer - who’s been uncharacteristically quiet since his Playboy magazine scandal - granted a wish for one of his audience members. During Sunday’s concert in Philadelphia, Mayer brought an 11-year-old holding a sign that read: “Can I play ‘Belief’ with you?”
Austin Christy, who has been playing the guitar for two years now, told a local paper that he had been secretly practicing that song to surprise his mom one day. It’s her favorite. “I believed in him that he would pull me up on stage and he believed in me that I would do a good job,” Christy said about being chosen.

American Idol followers - the time has finally come. The time when contestants from previous seasons come back to remind us about what we may have already forgotten.
Later this week, Allison Iraheta - arguably one of the more memorable singers from recent years - will get her chance to sing for us once again. Season 8’s fourth place-finisher will perform “Scars,” a song off her debut album Just Like You. That CD - released December 1 - also includes a song (“No One Else”) co-written by Pink, Greg Wells and Idol‘s Kara DioGuardi.
Kris Allen, last year’s champ, will also be a part of Thursday’s results show. Allen will be sharing footage from his recent trip to Haiti in addition to singing for the audience.

“I thought it went OK. I understand. It’s a TV show. Cameras were everywhere. I was so blinded that I couldn’t see… And I really wished the crowd would have gotten into singing the songs with us more. That’s how it is in Europe for our soccer matches. I wanted more banter.”
