Though it seemed pretty clear that Lady Gaga would be bringing home the award for Best New Artist at the 2010 Grammy Awards, a rule change has affected the nominees for that category, making Gaga ineligible for the award.
Apparently, because her first single, “Just Dance” was nominated at last year’s Grammy Awards she no longer counts as a new artist.

That sucks for her! I’m sure she was thinking no one else had a chance of winning. You guys have any other clues as to who might bring home the award? My money’s on Keri Hilson.

A source said, "Russell was just messing around in the studio with Katy.

The music video for Demi Lovato’s single “Remember December” off of her album, Here We Go Again, has been released.
Demi said of the video, “The music video relates to the song in a way that a girl has so much to say to the guy, and it feels like he’s not listening, and she wants him to remember everything that they had. And so instead of having a love interest in this video, it’s all about being fierce and kind of, like, taking control as a girl. It’s like girl empowerment. Yeah, divas!”
I like the song. Demi’s got …read more

While out in Australia on her Circus tour, Britney Spears was met with some less than enthusiastic fans upon getting on stage in Perth. On Friday night, Britney followed through her typical routine where she lip-synchs the songs and instead focuses on entertainment.

One fan, Amanda Hawlet spent $500 in a weekend getaway, trying …read more

Yesterday, teen pop band, the Jonas Brothers, presented a tribute to Michael Jackson during the 2009 MTV Europe Music Awards.
Nick and Joe did a relatively good job, but what was up with Kevin? Some people are even saying he sounded drunk! It wasn’t a great in leading up to such an important tribute, but at least the actual video itself was pretty sweet.
