The Boss — That’s Bruce Springsteen, for those not in-the-know… — made a mayjah announcement on his website last night: The “Dancing in the Dark” hitmaker is packing up his E Street Band and hitting the road on an international tour that’s expected to crisscross the globe in 2012. The tour will be the band’s first in three years, and the first since the death of their beloved sax player, Clarence Clemons, who passed away after suffering a stroke at his Florida home in June.
Justin and Katy and Gaga: Oh my! It was an unusually rainy night in Southern California – but a few downpours couldn’t stop music’s most glamorous names from sparkling on the American Music Awards (AMAs) red carpet, just outside the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles.
Sad Day for Hip-Hop: Heavy D — the emcee who smashed on to the rap scene in 1987 and made phrases like “Money-Earnin’ Mt. Vernon,”“The Overweight Lover,” and the incomparable “Muh-Diddly-Diddly-Diddly-D” catchphrases of the era — has died.
Justin Bieber has released a brand new video from his very first holiday album, Under the Mistletoe. In the vid for Santa Claus is Coming to Town, The Biebs appears in animagic form, an updated form of the claymation effect used in those classic holiday movies like Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.
An animagic Justin shows off his dancing and skating skills in the video, which also features reindeers, a penguin and of course, Santa Claus himself – who appears to be sporting Justin’s now-retired, but still iconic former swoop hairstyle.
