UPDATE: Overdose Cause of Springsteen Cousin’s Death
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Artist News, Rock,
Bruce Springsteen’s cousin died from an accidental drug overdose.
Lenny Sullivan, who was the “Working On A Dream” singer’s assistant road manager, died on October 26 and autopsy results released this week showed he passed away of “acute amphetamine and heroin intoxication.” Sullivan’s body was found in his hotel room shortly before Bruce was to take to the stage. The discovery forced Bruce Springsteen to cancel his concert in Kansas City that night.
A statement on the singer’s website posted soon after the death read: “Lenny Sullivan, Bruce’s cousin and the assistant road manager of the E Street Band for the last 10 years, passed away today at the age of 36. A warm and sensitive person, he was beloved by Bruce, the Band, the crew, and the entire Thrill Hill family.”

UPDATE: Cuomo has just been released from the hospital
One day after a terrifying crash in New York, Weezer’s Rivers Cuomo was reported to be “sitting up” and “talking clearly” in his hospital room.
The group’s lead singer and his assistant, Sarah Kim, were both injured in a Saturday morning incident that sent his tour bus down a muddy ravine about 40 miles west of Albany. The bus - also occupied by Rivers’ wife, daughter and nanny - hit a patch of ice before going through a guardrail and traveling an additional 8-10 feet down a slope.

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.

Quote of the Day: Jared Leto on Thirty Seconds to Mars’ New Album
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Gossip, Rock,
“We went to war and fought for what we believed in, and we refused to give in or give up until they addressed our concerns. One day, they finally addressed our concerns and we were able to make peace and move forward. But it was a long and sometimes vicious, brutal, and bloody battle. It occupied every waking moment, and I carried a lot of it. I tried my best to shield Shannon and Tomo from it so we could all focus on the creative aspects of making this record on our own. We are very, very glad we took on that fight. We never doubted it was the right decision, but we didn’t know how it would end up…. But we’re stronger as a result of it, and it will always be a part of our story.”
-Thiry Seconds to Mars’ Jared Leto explaining why their new album is titled This Is War.

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?
