Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Artist News, Collaborations, Gossip, Music Videos, Covers, Pop, Rock,
Miley Cyrus might not be familiar with Jay-Z tracks, but she definitely knows her Poison. According to the pop singer’s mother (yes, Miley - I called you a pop star), the 17-year-old is in the process of recording a Bret Michaels-penned classic: “Every Rose Has Its Thorn.”
Although Cyrus wasn’t even born during the band’s heydey, she says her first non-Billy Ray concert was a Poison performance in Nashville.
If the rumors are true, Michaels will even assist Miley on the song with his own guitar playing.

Pink says she fooled her husband into taking her back.
The “So What” singer reconciled with Carey Hart in January after almost a year apart and says she deliberately gave the motocross star a gift that would make him re-evaluate the problems in their marriage. “I gave him a photograph album of us together. I was like, ‘I don’t want to have this anymore, I think you should have it.’ It was a bit of trickery but it worked,” she explained.
The 30-year-old also revealed she is much happier now than she was 10 years ago because her life previously lacked direction.
“I hadn’t really done anything. I didn’t know what it takes to stick up for yourself or to make your own path or to put everything on the line because you believe in it,” she told The Times newspaper.
Pink first met Carey at the 2001 X Games. They split for a short period in 2003, but got back together and tied the knot in Costa Rica in January 2006 before their second separation.

Does Leighton Meester Leave You Singing?
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Gossip, Performances, Videos, Pop,
Is Leighton Meester really a hit singer wasting her time as a CW actress? Or is the Gossip Girl star just another beauty fronting an overproduced track?
Over the weekend, Meester helped kick off KISS FM’s Jingle Ball in Los Angeles. Her performance of “Somebody to Love” was coupled with a weak attempt at dancing and a strange bra-vest number.
But how was her actual singing? Watch the clip and you be the judge. Should Chuck Bass book his lady for a gig at his hotel? Or should this good girl gone bad stick Cobra Starship-esque cameos?

Jennifer Lopez’s fall at last month’s American Music Awards left her with an injured derriere.
“I have a bruised bone. What happened was one of the dancers’ backs was slippery from sweat and lights and everything. We never bargained for that because they always had T-shirts on in rehearsal,” Lopez explained. “So they were bare-backed, didn’t have shirts on for the performance, and when I stepped on their backs my feet got wet. So when I landed, it just slipped from under me.”

Pamela Anderson is prepared to release her first pop single. Did anyone know she could even sing?
The song, “High,” is about high fashion…because Anderson knows so much about that. She’s recording the song with Richie Rich, who says “Pam says she wants to sing, but nothing too difficult, so she’s just going to sign the word ‘high’ over and over.”
He’s not serious about that…right?

Quote of the Day: Lady Gaga on Her Tame Album Covers
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Gossip, Pop,
“My album covers are not sexual at all, which was an issue at my record label. I fought for months, and I cried at meetings. They didn’t think the photos were commercial enough…The last thing a young woman needs is another picture of a sexy pop star writhing in sand, covered in grease, touching herself.”
-Lady Gaga explaining why her CD covers are far more tame than actual performances.
