Stan Lee Tweeted the above picture “Nuts! When I offered @deadmau5 (Dead Mouse to you) some disk jockeying tips, he said if I didn’t shut up he’d take his mouse head away!” I always wondered what the DJ looked like and I think it is great that the Comic Book legend is the one that unmasked him. You know what Deadmau5 isn’t that bad looking, I wonder why he wears those over-sized mice heads.
One of Bruce Springsteen’s most iconic videos he ever made during his rockin’ career was the one for Dancing in the Dark. Well here is behind-the-scenes video of what it looked like without the audience that included a young Courteney Cox and him dancing in the dark by himself in just a tank top with black pants and suspenders. Luckily The Boss did not like the original concept and it was changed into the video we know today according to Billboard.
Had the music video for the song on Born in the U.S.A. was released like that, who knows if the song would’ve been as big as it was or if we would’ve ever gotten to know that Friend who moved to Cougar Town because those dance moves are beyond ’80s white boy bad? Not that they weren’t bad in the video, but they are better with the full band behind him.
Take a look at the video that we know below and tell me which one you think is better?
Who knew that Lenny Kravitz wanted to be the next Wayne Brady, but after watching the music video for Stand I think if he ever gave up music his next career goal would be to host Let’s Make a Deal. And you know what he would be great at it, as long as he goes back to his old hairstyle! But I don’t think he will be giving up the music scene any time soon because that song and that video will have him topping the charts once again. I can’t wait to buy Black and White America when it comes out on August 30th.
Sometimes I forget that his father was a Hollywood producer and his mother was Roxie Roker, who played Helen Willis on The Jeffersons, but it is things like this that remind of the good genes he comes from.
We have seen flash mobs all over the world, at malls, at train stations, at beaches and we have even seen a show dedicated to one each episode, but I don’t think we have ever seen one at a concert until now. Yesterday while Kenny Loggins was performing in Ashland, KY a group of people, who will be performing the musical Footloose in August, did a flash mob during his show when he sang the song of the same title. I don’t think I have ever seen one at a concert before, but I wish they would happen more often because it really is the best place to do one in my opinion.
And I am not the only one who thought it was a great idea because Kenny Loggins asked his fans on Twitter to send him video of it. You know since he missed out on it because he was on stage singing the song and all. Well one fan responded and said, “our son was a ‘flash mob’ kid Enjoyed show!” along with the above video. The proud mamma son was in the center with the purple bandana and she has every reason to be proud of him!!!
On a side if you ever get a chance to see Loggins live, do it because it is a really awesome show!!!
