So yesterday was interesting, talking with Louise Mensch on Twitter about how she was the hardest questioner of the Murdochs at the DCMS select committee, while at the same time admitting that she'd already decided James had nothing to answer the second time round before he'd even given his testimony (you know, like a judge wouldn't and a jury shouldn't). Then it got a bit odd, when somebody else asked who the two people who'd misled the committee were Louise decided that his lack of knowledge proved that I was someone who didn't care about phonehacking and just wanted to [...]

His career is over in three years anyway,' He also told the Sun he does have one trick up his sleeve that he thinks would help the troubled teen. He said: 'I’d take Bieber to the woodshed and spank him.' "It has been a difficult year already [...]

Justin Bieber hasn't had the best luck lately: the singer was hospitalized after fainting at a show, then threatened to beat up a photographer and most recently, got into a argument with one of his neighbors who alleged that Bieber spit on him . And now the young pop star may have some more trouble on his hands. While traveling to Munich this past Thursday, Bieber's new pet monkey was detained by airport customs officials.

"Munich was a good time. And loud," Justin Bieber said on March 28, after his 'Believe' tour performance in the German city. However, AP reports that Bieber also had to leave his pet capuchin monkey in quarantine. A Munich customs spokeman says that because Bieber did not have the necessary documentation to bring the monkey in the first place, Munich customs ordered that his pet stay with authorities. The pet monkey was a gift from producer Mally Mall , according to TMZ. Bieber has [...]

It was a wild 'n' crazy week in pop — and most of the action was televised: From Lotus legend Christina Aguilera and Mr. Worldwide Pitbull 's mini-me performance of "Feel This Moment" at the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards, to the premiere of The Voice 's Season 4, to Katharine McPhee 's return to the American Idol stage with OneRepublic , y'all were on fire with the sassy sweetness (but mostly, the sass.) Check out some of the best comments of the [...]

Filed under: News , Exclusive , Holy Hell , News Today, Oh Boy! , Music Appreciation YouTube For as long as freshly-scrubbed boys have been assembled into crack singing units designed to conquer the hearts and wallets of hot-blooded girls with their harmonies, synchronized dance moves and floppy hair, those same girls have been crafting all sorts of fantastical stories about the objects of their desires and disposable incomes. But they used [...]

The Internet is a strange, strange place. As we noted yesterday, Gerard Way penned an epic letter about My Chemical Romance's breakup, but in certain corners of the web, fans are flat-out refusing to believe it, and expressing their disappointment in the most quintessentially MCR way — by penning fanfiction wherein the band continues to exist forever! The world of MCR fanfic is a strange, hilarious place, but it's by no means home to the weirdest fanfic you'll find out there. And so, to celebrate the, um, devotion of a certain breed of music fans, here's a selection [...]

Last fall, Justin Bieber announced his partnership with Adidas NEO with a golden sneaker contest - think Charlie and the Chocolate Factory - and a promise of more details to come. Now, less than six months later, Bieber can be seen modeling a few pieces from the brand's S/S 2013 collection, thanks to an interactive lookbook that debuted this week.

Selena Gomez appeared on the Late Show with David Letterman to promote Spring Breakers Monday night (March 18), and the star managed to get in a pretty good dig at her ex Justin Bieber . But the great thing was how playful it seemed, instead of coming off as spiteful or catty. Letterman asked her about her relationship status, to which she replied, "I'm single, I'm so good." That "so" would've been enough to sting Bieber, but don't worry, there's more. Letterman then recounted the last time Bieber was on his show, [...]
As we reported yesterday , the Elite Gymnastics dude recorded a rather lovely cover of Justin Bieber's "Beauty and a Beat" (in a sort of medley with Taylor Swift's "Ours") for Grimes's birthday. It's the second Bieber-centric track to drop from an indie luminary in as many weeks; last week saw The Mountain Goats' John Darnielle penning a plea for the paparazzi to leave Justin alone, damn it. The world of non-pop music has had a curious love/hate relationship with Bieber over the years — for all that "serious" fans and YouTube commenters seem to loathe him, their heroes [...]

During her appearance on the Late Show with David Letterman , Gomez admitted she made Biebz cry. "The last time he was here... I made him cry," Dave said. "Well, then, that makes two of us," Gomez replied. The response? An eruption of cheers and a fist-bump from Dave. Yikes! Poor Biebz! Making Bieber boo-hoo was just [...]
Have you been chasing The Saturdays on their E! reality show Chasing The Saturdays ? Cool! So have Justin Bieber 's manager Scooter Braun and pop superproducer Dallas Austin , according to an entirely dubious-sounding report from The Daily Star that's exactly the sort of thing we'd want to have in the press if we were managing an international girl group struggling to break ground in the United States (not that there's anything remotely suspicious about the story, or the English tabloid machine in general).
