Music Kristen Stewart’s dance moves, Anne Hathaway’s tears You know what song I hate? I hate John Legend’s All Of Me. And it’s everywhere. It’s every song on the radio on my drive home from work. They don’t play Sia enough. They’re trying to make me sick of Sam Smith. So maybe they’ By Lainey • Jul 15, 2014 04:36 pm
Music The difference of one summer Last summer, Blurred Lines was blowing up the radio. This summer… Well, I’ve not listened to one full song on Robin Thicke’s new album, Paula.

Music Lea Michele on holiday in Cabo Lea Michele is on holiday in Mexico with friends. Here she is at the resort enjoying some down time. She was working on Glee all year. She promoted her new album.

Music Keira sings I really, really want to see Begin Again. Love Keira Knightley. LOVE Mark Ruffalo. Have you seen him in the poster? Check out the poster.

Music “I can’t make love to you anymore” That’s about as far as I could make it. Robin Thicke’s new video for the song Get Her Back, part of his new album full of songs about getting her back.

Music JLO’s new album is a year late Jennifer Lopez’s new album AKA dropped yesterday. She spent the day in New York doing promotion and gathered with friends and family to celebrate.

Music Johnny plays for Willie Willie Nelson played a show in Boston last night. And Johnny Depp played a set with him. Willie apparently introduced him as just “Johnny”.

Music JLO opens the World Cup This song is a mess. I don’t even know what it actually sounds like. And they didn’t even have to sing live. But the music wasn’t the point.
