What: The music video for the singer’s second single, “Try,” off her No. 1 album, The Truth About Love.
The Rundown: Pink’s “Try” video explores the often blurry boundary between love and pain, a perfect visual representation of the age-old metaphor of love as war. The paint-covered singer ballroom dances her way through the Floria Sigismondi-directed video, beautifully choreographed by the Golden Boyz. Many of the dance sequences are very reminiscent of those found in Shakira’s “Lo Hecho Está Hecho” video, framed by Sophie Muller. Whatever the inspiration, Pink took to her Twitter page to reveal her mom’s reaction to the piece. “My mom,after seeing the new video… ‘Wow, honey. I’m speechless. And uncomfortable. No one can ever say you play it safe.’”
Hogan says Bubba had adamantly denied having any knowledge about the sex tape … and told Hulk he didn’t know there was a camera capturing Hogan’s X-rated session with his former wife Heather Clem.Hulk says he had warned Bubba … “If you had anything to do with this, that means we were never friends.”
We broke the story … Bubba appears at the very end of the sex tape, after Hogan had left the room, and told Heather, “If we ever did want to retire, all we’d have to do is use this footage.”
Hulk says he is exploring all of his legal options — and promises someone WILL PAY for recording and releasing the tape.
Hulk Hogan just appeared on the Howard Stern show … and admitted the woman in his sex tape is the estranged wife of his best friend, Bubba the Love Sponge … who gave Hulk his blessing to nail her.
Hulk spilled his guts to Stern … saying Bubba — a nationally syndicated radio DJ — allowed Hogan to have sex with Heather Clem six years ago.
During the interview, Hogan says he was still married to Linda at the time of the sex tape … but says she drove him to have sex outside the marriage because she was so verbally and emotionally abusive to him.
Hulk also admitted his performance wasn’t exactly tip top.
Hogan says he’s working with officials to find out who released the tape … because he swears he didn’t know he was being recorded … and vows to press charges against the perpetrator.
Jay Z caused quite a stir this weekend to top off his eight-show stint (Oct. 6) at the newly opened Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y. Before the final performance on Saturday evening, the Reasonable Doubt creator rode the subway to Barclays, an event that of course caused crowds and mayhem.
That wasn’t the only surprise that Hov had in store for fans. After announcing that he’d live-stream the final concert and release and eight-song EP from the event, the “Empire State of Mind” rapper brought out a special guest for his last show.
What could possibly top seeing Jay-Z live at a Brooklyn stadium he helped establish? Seeing him perform with his superstar wife Beyonce, of course. Bey joined her husband onstage to an ecstatic crowd.
Although she’s now a mother, the “Run the World (Girls)” singer looked more fierce than ever, performing “Diva” along with “Crazy in Love” and joining her husband on his The Blueprint 3 ballad “Young Forever.” Jay also gave his wife a playful smack on the butt during their “Crazy in Love” collaboration at the 4:58-mark in the video below.
But watching the mother of his child perform distracted Jay-Z to no end. He missed his cue to come in for his rap on “Crazy in Love,” which he sheepishly admitted later. “Oh shit, I should probably rap here,” he explained the mistake.
Clearly, Jay and Bey are just as crazy in love now as they’ve ever been.
Hulk Hogan‘s leaked sex tape did NOT catch the wrestler with his pants down — at least figuratively — because TMZ has learned, he’s already got his lawyers on the counter-attack, threatening to SUE if the tape isn’t taken off the Internet.Gawker posted a minute-long clip of the sex tape on its website yesterday — but sources close to Hogan tell TMZ, it won’t be up for long … because Hogan’s currently drafting a nasty cease-and-desist letter to the website, demanding the footage be taken down.Hogan’s claiming the site has no right to post the footage — and if it doesn’t remove it, he’ll sue.
Hulk’s lawyer David R. Houston tells TMZ, “This tape was made secretly without Hulk’s knowledge or permission. We are going to do everything in our power to figure out who did it. Anyone displaying the tape will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law.”
As we first reported … the Hogan tape was being shopped around to the highest bidder beginning earlier this year. Screen grabs hit the Internet in April, but video only surfaced yesterday.
Gawker says it obtained the tape from an anonymous source — who gave the footage to the site for free.
As soon as news broke about the tape, Hogan immediately vowed to sue ANYONE who published it. Hulk’s word is his bond.
Rihanna and Chris Brownaren’t even trying to hide it anymore — ’cause it looks like they were getting cozy at the Jay-Z concert tonight … and, based on Twitter, everyone in Brooklyn saw it.A pic taken from behind RiRi and Chris at Barclays Center is burning up the Internet — they’re seated in VIP … he’s on the left, she’s on the right.No physical contact — in the photo, anyway — but Chris’ right arm is stretched around the back of Rihanna’s chair.
This reunion comes the night after Chris and Rihanna were spotted at the same table in an NYC nightclub.
They were also seen leaving the same hotel on Wednesday — and, for what it’s worth, Chris’ blind-as-a-bat GF Karrueche tweeted “Bye baby” … just a couple hours before tonight’s concert.
Chris Brown and Rihannaare barely trying to hide it anymore — getting up close and personal at a NYC nightclub late Monday night … then carousing at Rihanna’s hotel for hours.Chris and Rihanna hit up Griffin nightclub in the Meatpacking District — we’re told they arrived 5 minutes apart, and quickly ended up at the same table. Sources inside the club say the two were all over each other, and even disappeared together in a bathroom for 20 minutes.
People inside the club say the duo were kissing and hugging out in the open.
The two left the club separately — but hours later, Chris was spotted leaving the Gansevoort Hotel, where Rihanna was staying.
By the way, Tuesday afternoon, Chris’ clueless GF Karrueche tweeted that Chris sent her roses, a teddy bear and chocolates — maybe a lame, “I’m sorry.”
Now that it’s October, Christmas albums are getting ready to fill the shelves in anticipation of the holiday season. The Voice hosts CeeLo Green Christina Aguilera came together for “Baby It’s Cold Outside,” a duet to be featured on Cee-Lo’s upcoming Christmas album, Cee Lo’s Magic Moments.
Big Boi is getting ready to release a new solo album, Vicious Lies and Dangerous Rumors, on 11/13. Listen to “Mama Told Me,” the first official single from the project featuring Kelly Rowland.
The funky 80s throwback sound reminds me a little of The Dream’s earlier work and I think this is one of Kelly Rowlands most interesting features to date. This doesn’t sound like single material to me, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Big Boi already has another single lined up. While his solo efforts are severely underrated, he never disappoints when it comes to the music!
