Back in the ’90s, Hootie & the Blowfish was one of the biggest bands out there, then with the new millennium they went their separate ways. Darius Rucker went solo and had his own hits. But would he ever record with the band that made him famous again? That is exactly what Harry Connick Jr wanted to know on his daytime talk show. The singer told him, “We’re talking about it. And we’re going to do it. We just don’t know when yet.” Hopefully, the talk will turn into singing sooner rather than later because we need their type of tunes again. Until we get that their new CD, will you Hold My Hand?
Even though it has been 12 years since they released a studio album together, Rucker revealed they all live about 15 minute from each other. Now if they can only find a music studio to record in in that 15 minute radius, that would be bitchin’.
First We Feast’s Sean Evan challenged Papa Roach to eat some bugs, but sadly no roaches, well besides the members of the band, were involved in this taste testing. Instead they tried Honey Roasted Crickets, Fire Brimstone Flavored Meal worms, Grasshoppers. Armor Tail Scorpion, June Bug and Bamboo Worm. How did they like it? Let’s just say they will stick to roaches since they weren’t any.
I know bugs are a good source of protein, but I will find other ways to get it. I just can’t do bugs. Eww.
Remember the first time you saw Drake’s Hotline Bling and you were wondering what the heck he was doing in it? He called it dancing, but we weren’t sure? That is how I feel after watching Bruno Mars’ That’s What I Like. That might be what he likes, but it is not what I like. He is better than that and I hope with the next video he really brings it like he did with Uptown Funk!
Nevermind is 25 years old and Spencer Elden is just as old. The baby, who is now a quarter of a century old, put on some swimming trunks, went under water and posed just like he did when he was only 4 months old. Although he told The NY Post, he wanted to do it naked, but photographer John Chapple told him no because he thought it would be “weird”. One of the things the photographer said yes to, was paying him the same amount that he made in 1991. A whopping $200!
Why did Elden recreate his infamous photo? He told the paper, “The anniversary means something to me. It’s strange that I did this for five minutes when I was four months old and it became this really iconic image,” adding, “It’s cool but weird to be part of something so important that I don’t even remember.” Something none of us can fathom.
BTW am I the only who feels really old seeing the baby as a grown man?
When you think of LL Cool J these days, you think of him as the star of NCIS: LA or the host of The Grammys and Lip Sync Battle. Way before all of this, he was a rap star who sang Mama Said Knock You Out and Going Back to Cali in the late ’80s and early ’90s.
I guess he has still been releasing music since then because today he took to Twitter to announce that he is retiring from music. Now I have to ask you, did you know he was still doing music? I know I didn’t. Now, if he retired from acting or hosting, I would think that was a bigger deal.
How are you taking his retirement from music?
