Lady Gaga took a quick spill on stage over the weekend in Houston, Texas... Whoops!

Did you catch Britney Spears on Good Morning America on Tuesday morning? It was quality entertainment and I mean that in a laugh-out-loud sense.
Here's what's sad. The show sold out in 14 minutes. So people had to buy tickets to this, just like any other Britney Spears concert. And just like any other Britney Spears concert, she lip synced the entire thing. Known to lip sync so that she can focus on her dancing, Spears could hardly get her ass moving this morning. Maybe it was the early hour, maybe she's just out of shape.
She sat on boxes and gave them a light humping. She threw a hand in the air and waved it around like she kinda didn't care too much... Her panties hung out of her leotard. It was a hot mess with the emphasis on mess.
Her fans won't care because they're fans. They'll say I don't know what I"m talking about and that I'm a hater. The fact is they should care. They should be outraged. They should want to see someone sing and give it their all instead of acting like a puppet or like a 5-year-old putting on a Britney Spears impression for a child's talent contest. It was weak, lacked emotion and showed what's completely wrong with pop stars these days.
Dear Britney, why don't you give a shit? Oh yeah, because you're rich and your fans are paying you and not complaining. Your new album, Femme Fatale, is out today and I hope sales are poor. Not so that you don't earn money, but maybe to inspire you to offer something worth a damn.

Just got sent the latest viral music video and now my ears are bleeding. Seriously, this could be one of the worst songs I've heard in a while. It's pop, it's simple and the lyrics are, also, some of the worst I've heard in a while.
I hate to give this girl any more attention, as the YouTube video has more than 5.5 million hits, but the record company should be aware it's because most people are noting how awful it is and it's not because there's a shred of talent here.

If the song was performed by Bob Dylan, it might sound like this:

Lyrics:
7am, waking up in the morning
Gotta be fresh, gotta go downstairs
Gotta have my bowl, gotta have cereal
Seein everything, the time is goin
Tickin on and on, everybodys rushin
Gotta get down to the bus stop
Gotta catch my bus, I see my friends (My friends)
Kickin in the front seat
Sittin in the back seat
Gotta make my mind up
Which seat can I take?
Its Friday, Friday
Gotta get down on Friday
Everybodys lookin forward to the weekend, weekend
Friday, Friday
Gettin down on Friday
Everybodys lookin forward to the weekend
Partyin, partyin (Yeah)
Partyin, partyin (Yeah)
Fun, fun, fun, fun
Lookin forward to the weekend
7:45, were drivin on the highway
Cruisin so fast, I want time to fly
Fun, fun, think about fun
You know what it is
I got this, you got this
My friend is by my right
I got this, you got this
Now you know it
Kickin in the front seat
Sittin in the back seat
Gotta make my mind up
Which seat can I take?
[Chorus]
Its Friday, Friday
Gotta get down on Friday
Everybodys lookin forward to the weekend, weekend
Friday, Friday
If the face looks familiar, it's actor, writer and comedian Donald Glover. If the name doesn't, he raps under the name Childish Gambino. As far as the video, there's no joking here, it's the song "Freaks and Geeks" from his latest release, EP.
Just dope, enjoy!

Lady Gaga has released a video for her cover of Madonna's "Express Yourself" song "Born This Way." It's just as odd an artistic as you might expect.
Hilarious how she's created this entire character of herself... considering not too long ago she was just some girl named Stephanie who appeared on MTV's "Boiling Points."
Charlotte musician Jeremy Current has posted a video teasing to the April 22 release of his new album, Dark Land of the Sun.
