> Annie Lennox goes all "We Are the World," mega-diva style:
The new album features the soaring and powerful feminist anthem 'Sing', born out of Annie's involvement with Nelson Mandela's 46664 and Treatment Action Campaign (TAC) - organizations fighting for human rights, education and health care for those affected by the HIV AIDS virus. The track 'Sing' features 23 of the most recognized and successful female solo artists in the world, invited by Annie, to raise awareness and finances for TAC initiatives. Included among the group are superstars such as Madonna, Sarah McLachlan, Celine Dion, Fergie, Faith Hill, Pink, Dido, Gladys Knight, kd Lang, Angelique Kidjo, Bonnie Raitt, Shakira, Melissa Etheridge, Anastasia, Joss Stone, KT Tunstall and many others, as well as TAC activist members own vocal group known as 'The Genetics', whose CD of music inspired Annie to make 'Sing' a reality.
> Wondering again why cell phone cams didn't give you visual proof of Jake Gyllenhaal on-stage with Rufus Wainwright singing "Between My Legs"? Wonder no more! Okay, it's not really singing so much as making some kind of dramatic pronouncement from a cue card, but the look of giddy joy on Rufus' face is adorably sweet.
> Boyband Svengali Lou Pearlman has learned nothing from being on the lam and eventually caught by authorities, if this jailhouse interview with Radar is any indication. "My thing -- and I've said this before -- is that I'll know the exact moment when boy bands are over, and that'll be when God stops making little girls." The word you're looking for here is "fucking creepy."
If you knew the Rufus song, you would know that the part of the song that Jake G. did live is supposed to be spoken word. At least Jake was amusing, adorable and funny, unlike your blog commentary.
