Coldplay may have finally relented and let their songs be used on Glee, but it sounds like Kings of Leon will be holding their ground.
According to the group, they have denied requests to have their music used on the FOX series “apparently everybody loves.”
Although it’s unclear why KOL made that decision (or why their songs have been heard on others shows like Gossip Girl), it’s not the first time the band has turned someone down.

Boy band fans (or should we call them man bands now?) will see all their dreams realized in 2011: the New Kids on the Block and the Backstreet Boys are close to teaming up for a tour of the United States. (Too bad it’s not 1996.)
NKOTB recently reunited, and now it seems they’re ready to take the act (back) on the road. Reportedly, the two bands are in negotiations with Live Nation Entertainment to book the event.
The New Kids teamed up with the Boys once before, performing together at Radio City Music Hall. A third band is also being considered for the tour. Boyz II Men is rumored to be the first pick.

Mariah Carey: Possible American Idol Judge?
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Gossip, Pop,
If American Idol producers fail to nab either Jennifer Lopez or Shania Twain as a judge, there’s one other singer they might be able to score: Mariah Carey.
According to America’s Got Talent host Nick Cannon, his wife would actually be interested in the position.
“You know what? [Mariah] talks about it,” Cannon said about a hypothetical job offering. “She says, ‘I would love to do that.’ She is one of the greatest singers of our time; she would be great. I don’t know if she has enough time, though, but if they could work with her schedule, I know she would love to do Idol. Let’s start the campaign!” (So when you say “time,” Nick—are you saying she might be busy being pregnant?)
Carey, like Lopez and Twain, has already made an appearance on the FOX reality program. She served as mentor during Season 7.
