Everyone has been mean to Lana Del Rey following her SNL performance with her rabid fanbase of bloggers turning against her in an instant. I'll say that I don't think all of the hate is deserved or justified, but her performance wasn't a star-making turn either. SNL came to LDR's defense this past Saturday night with Kristen Wiig getting LDR'd to apologize for what was deemed an awful performance. Read more »

Brooklyn's Sleigh Bells will make their Network Television Debut on February 18 when the duo are featured as the musical guest on NBC's Saturday Night Live. Former cast member Maya Rudolph will host the episode. Let's hope Sleigh Bells' appearance goes better than the much maligned one by Lana Del Rey earlier this year. Sleigh Bells' debut album scored the #25 slot on our Best Albums of 2010 list.
Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News Lionel Bonaventure, AFP, Getty Images "It's you, it's you, it's all for you," Lana Del Rey 's management has proclaimed after postponing the 25-year-old's upcoming 30-date tour . According to the New York Post (via Rolling Stone), Del Rey's entire team has urged the inexperienced performer to avoid continued bad press and stay home to hone her stage craft . "[Lana] and her manager decided [...]
SNL has been going strong for 37 years. Every week there's a new musical guest and a new host. As you can imagine, over that time, there have been some truly strange pairings when it comes to the two. How strange? How about Rage Against the Machine and billionaire Steve Forbes?
After last week's debacle of Lana Del Rey , in whatever form you may find it more comforting to explain (along with a good impersonation from Kristin Wiig on last Saturday's show), Justin Vernon and the rest of Bon Iver made their first appearance on the Channing Tatum-hosted Saturday Night Live . Just a week before the 53rd Grammy Awards , in which the aforementioned group is up for several awards, including 'Best New Artist,' despite being relevant for four-plus years now, Bon Iver performed a spectacular rendition of "Holocene" and [...]
Bon Iver was just the musical guest on Saturday Night Live this past weekend and performed two tracks, 'Holocene' and 'Beth/Rest'.

Bon Iver was the musical guest on Saturday Night Live this past weekend. During the episode, they performed Holocene and Beth/Rest from their self-titled sophomore release. You can watch the Grammy-nominee's play both songs below. Holocene Beth/Rest

Madge played her halftime show at the Indianapolis home that Peyton Manning built for this year's Super Bowl. The hype machine that has been working around the clock (see collabos with M.I.A. and Minaj) in support of the new release from the Material Girl to be titled, "MDNA," reached it's pinnacle last night with a medley of treasured hits from the iconic superstar. But it looks like M.I.A. single-handedly highjacked the halftime show last night with her gratuitous crotch shot and lewd gesture to America by flipping "us" the bird. Aside from that slight hiccup and [...]
I don't know who Channing Tatum is, but he introduced Bon Iver on Saturday Night Live this weekend. It's been a while since I have seen Bon Iver perform, but 'Holocene' has lost none of its qualities and still sounds as frest as the first time. The same can be [Read more]

One rather obvious and tiresome joke after Lana Del Rey's Saturday Night Live performance , at least among her critics, was that it resembled a Kristen Wiig skit. (Indeed, Newsday said Del Rey's rendition of "Video Games" was "so awful it could easily have been a Kristen Wiig skit, maybe one where she impersonates a Fiona Apple wannabe.") Never one to let a meta-joke slip idly by, SNL's Weekend Update segment last night featured — what else — Kristen Wiig channeling Del Rey in a methodical defense of her appearance as [...]

a handsome-looking Justin Vernon on Saturday Night Live Though we won't see him/them performing at the Grammys ("We wanted to play our music, but were told that we couldn't play. We had to do a collaboration with someone else," Justin said), Bon Iver played two songs off their latest album on Saturday Night Live last night (2/4). Watch both songs below. Earlier the same day, Wisconsin's WEAU profiled the Grammy-nominated artist on the evening news, interviews with Justin's parents [...]
Filed under: News , Television C Brandon, Redferns As we learned last month, when Lana Del Rey 's iffy 'SNL' performance had everyone from indie snobs to Brian Williams crying foul, people like authenticity -- or at least what they perceive as such. Last night's guest, Bon Iver , have never been called out for their genuineness, and performing 'Holocene' and 'Beth/Rest,' singer Justin Vernon and his blazer-clad sidemen reclaimed [...]
Bon Iver - "Beth/Rest" (live on SNL) // For their second song of the evening, Bon Iver busted out "Best/Rest" in all its synth and saxophone glory. Savor this now because the band will not be performing at the Grammy Awards . - MW
