Jennifer Lopez, a.k.a. J. Lo., is trying to make a comeback in the music world .

She’s released, “Fresh Out the Oven” a new dance track featuring Pitbull. Already I hate the name of the song! What was that? Bun in the oven?

Not trying to be a J. Lo. hater, but really, she isn’t ‘Jenny from the Block’ anymore, y’all. The song lacks anything catchy. Except for “Break it off here, break it off there”, and all I can think is of J. Lo. breaking off Pitbull’s wang!

Jennifer has a new website promoting the mediocre song, called WhoisLola.com. She has an alter ego and her name is Lola. Oh lawd, hasn’t someone done this before? *ahem* Beyonce *ahem* Methinks someone is trying to beat Beyonce at her own game. Good luck with that one, Jen.

Love it or hate it?

From the 1999 album, Title of Record, it’s Filter and “Take a Picture”.

This song is not only beautiful and surreal, so is the video. One of my favorite videos of all time.

The band claims the song is about lead singer Richard Patrick, and one particular instance where he got drunk on a plane and stripped all his clothes off. He then fought with the flight attendants. “Awake on my airplane, my skin is bare, my skin is bare…” Heh.

Would have loved to have taken a picture of that. Richard is yummy.

Susan Boyle sings the Rolling Stones’ Wild Horses

I happened to catch Susan Boyle singing Wild Horses on the finale of America’s Got Talent last night purely by accident.

Although I admit to be a reality show whore,  America’s Got Talent just isn’t my cup o’ tea. But nothing happened to be on TV last night and as I scanned the stations I came across the show.

‘Oh, it’s that Susan Boyle chick,’ I thought to myself as I paused on ABC, willing to give her a listen. The only time I have ever heard Susan sing was on YouTube singing Les Miserables’, “I Dreamed a Dream.” Which, is great, but being as I have never seen the Broadway show or heard the song (I know, I know..) it didn’t have much significance to me.

On the flip side..

Hearing Boyle sing the Stones was a jaw dropper for me. I mean, c’mon, the ROLLING STONES?  Who can sing a tune of theirs and leave you in awe besides Mick Jagger? Susan Boyle can. And Wild Horses is such a beautiful song. I heard it at a funeral earlier this year and now when I hear it, it has new meaning.

If you haven’t heard it, take a quick listen. It’s beautiful!

Oprah Flash Mob Video – Black Eyed Peas

21,000 fans danced in sync to the Black Eyed Peas “I Got a Feeling” during a performance at Oprah’s Oprahpalooza which was taped Tuesday.

It all starts with one woman dancing in the front row and eventually spreads throughout the crowd until everyone is doing the same, synchronized dance. Oprah had no prior knowledge that the crowd were all clued into what was about to happen.

In case you aren’t familiar with a flash-mob, they are a large group who meets in advance to work together to create a dance on a grand scale, at whatever chosen event.

From NBC Chicago:

The producer, Australian Michael Gracey, was also responsible for a famous flash mob dance at a Liverpool train station that was used for a phone commercial, but Tuesday’s event was much larger in scale.

And in order to pull it off, late last month local casting agencies were enlisted to look for dancers.

Dancers of all ages participated. Those who didn’t know the dance were taught by others who did.

Love it!

Sandra Bernhard is coming out with a new album on the 25th. It’s titled, Whatever it Takes.

Sandra is a busy girl these days, she’s promoting her album, touring and working on a television project.

I’ve never heard Sandra sing, but I know what a nail on a chalkboard her voice is! So I just HAD to YouTube it. Let’s just say her singing is worse than I thought it would be. I’m not trying to hate on her, she’s a little goofy and I know she’s vulgar, but I like to watch her because she is so anti-mainstream. Still, that doesn’t help her voice.

The video above is a clip of Sandra singing a cover Courtney Love’s band Hole’s song, “Violet”. Sandra poses like Mick Jagger onstage. She sings like your grandma in the beginning then swaps over to angsty teen at the end.

Watch the video, if you dare. It might just stick in your head and that wouldn’t be a good thing. Funny, but not a good thing.

Madonna’s official Celebration Video

Madonna’s new Celebration video.

Madge’s plaything Jesus Lux appears as a DJ that she pretty much seduces, ripping his shirt off as the lyrics, “I guess I don’t recognize you with your clothes on,” play in the background.

Daughter Lourdes actually makes a quick appearance as well, can you spot her?

Lots of pelvic thrusting, crotch grabbing, leg spreading, you know, the usual. Love her outfit though..

The Yeah Yeah Yeahs are up for an MTV Video Music Award this year with their hit, ‘Heads Will Roll’, from their album, It’s Blitz!

This is most definitely my favorite song of the 2009 and I am hoping the band gets the award that they deserve. Not only is the song amazing, the video is one you’re not likely to forget! And unless you have been living under a rock, or you simply don’t watch MTV, here’s the video for you to enjoy.

The werewolf who terrorizes and eventually massacres the crowd at a nightclub dances a little like Michael Jackson, and damn if he isn’t creepy! The whole video is a little eerie, as is the song, which is probably why I love it.

This song is SO 80s inspired, Karen O sounds a lot like Dale Bozzio of Missing Persons, (Walking in L.A, Words). Very “New Wave”.

You are supposed to be able to vote for the video HERE at MTV, but it looks like their site is wigging out, and it is pissing me off. So off with their heads! Heh. I will put an email in to them to possibly get that changed, so check back with their site and VOTE for the Yeah Yeah Yeahs!

Britney Spears Circus Tour Footage.

The first legal live video from Britney Spears’ Circus Live 2009 tour. Exclusive full performance of the song “Circus” in HD.

I loved the “ringleader” jacket she has on when she is lowered on stage! Why did she take it off so soon? She obviously had a hand in that sequined bra and panty outfit she wears, because it’s just like the one she wore during her dreaded “comeback” performance a couple years ago. The one she insisted on wearing despite her people telling her otherwise.. At least if she was going to take the jacket off she could have waited toward the end of the song.

The show is definitely eye-candy, but that’s about it. Pre-recorded music doesn’t excite me much.
