Brandy played a concert at FNB stadium in Soweto after a game on Sunday, only problem is that no one seemed to know about it. In fact according to The Guardian only 40 people stayed to hear her sing. That number sounds even worse when you consider that arena can hold 90,000 at capacity. To make matters worse Brandy was able to see how many people were actually in the audience because someone left the lights on. Once she realized that that was all there was going to be, she walked out after singing 2 songs.
If that doesn’t bruise someone’s ego, I don’t know what does.
When you look at Amanda Seyfried, she looks all doe-eyed and innocent, but then when you hear what her hobby is your impression of her will change. Yesterday she was on Conan O’Brien’s TBS show and he asked her about being into Taxidermy. She then explained to him why she has all of these dead stuffed animals in her house and I was totally weirded out. Then she shared a picture of her with her dead friends reading a book and I am beyond creeped out. If only her sh!tty Red Riding Hood picture was as scary as her real life, it might’ve done a whole lot better at the box office. Seriously that movie was so bad, I couldn’t even get through 10 minutes of that dreck.
Annie Lennox posted a blog on her site that makes it seem like she will no longer be touring. The Walking on Broken Glass singer is breaking a lot of hearts by posting this:
I doubt that I’ll ever tour again because quite honestly…it just wears me out mentally and physically, and my back and left foot are rubbish.
In any case, I think I spent enough time waiting in cars, hotel rooms and dressing rooms for Godot to actually make a personal appearance.
In the future performers will tour by hologram on a regular basis…undoubtedly.
Meanwhile… Today I’m featuring an artist who has been “disappeared”..Ai Weiwei…love Annie
For some reason I doubt she will stop touring, she will just take a break from it. In a few years she will crave that feeling that only performing live gives her and she will back on the road just like Cher, Barbra Streisand and The Cure said and did before her.
Seriously how do you lose a pig that is the size of a school bus? Well I guess if you cut the cords and let a pig fly free during the last performance of a three-day outdoor music festival, you are going to get a bunch of hungry stoners who think that might be dinner!!! Not sure how they lost it, but the promoters of Coachella are offering $10,000 and 4 free lifetime passes to whomever returns the pig according to Wired.
Here is a description of the pig, in case you see a deflated pig the size of a school bus just laying around.
The pig was covered with political graffiti: “Don’t be led to the slaughter,” read one slogan. “Fear builds walls,” read another. A cartoon Uncle Sam painted on the pig held two bloody cleavers, and the porker’s belly read “Obama,” with a checked ballot box alongside
If you find the pig, please contact [email protected]!
Thanks Denise!
Forget spending a lot of money for one '80s band/singer like Duran Duran, George Michael, Yaz(oo) or New Kids on the Block, when you can spend a lot less to see 5 bands at once. Human League, Belinda Carlisle, ABC, Dead or Alive (thru Aug 11), A Flock of Seagulls (beginning August 13) and Naked Eyes have announced that they will be touring this summer with the Regeneration Tour!!!
I don't know about you, but I am spinning round round like a record over the news because I know there will be Always Something There to Remind Me what a good show this will be and it will be Heaven is a Place on Earth and not just Living in Electric Dreams!
