MORRISSEY AUTOBIOGRAPHY OUT IN A FEW WEEKS!

Pennguin Books have confirmed plans to release the official Morrissey autobiography which appeared to have been pulled at the last minute last week following a "content dispute" between the singer and publisher. Morrissey: Autobiography was originally due for release on Monday (September 16) but a statement released last week said the whole book idea was caput!  

And now it seems there has been new development in the story that will make fans happy.  Penguin released a statement which claims that they will still release the book in the UK and Europe, but not in America. A clarification to the original story was added to the statement on Morrissey fansite True To You which reads:

"The publication of Morrissey’s Autobiography remains with Penguin Books. This is a deal for the UK and Europe, but Morrissey has no contract with a publisher for the US or any other territory. As of 13 September, Morrissey and Penguin (UK) remain determined to publish within the next few weeks."

The original statement, which you can see below, stated that Morrissey was seeking a new publisher to print the book. The first statement read: "Although Morrissey's Autobiography was set to be available throughout the UK on September 16, a last-minute content disagreement between Penguin Books and Morrissey has caused the venture to collapse. No review copies were printed, and Morrissey is now in search of a new publisher."

In 2011 a spokesperson for Penguin Books said Morrissey's forthcoming autobiography was "a classic in the making". The publisher has said it was keen to enter discussions with the former Smiths frontman, who announced he had finished the 600-page tome that year. 
I know sad it won't be sold in the U.S., buthey there's always ebay.co.uk! :)

PINK FLOYD'S ROGER WATERS: "I DID, I DID THINK THAT WAS WRONG, AND I WAS WRONG!"

Pink Floyd’s Roger Waters said he regrets taking legal action against his former band mates while revealing that he plans to release a new solo album.  Is that an honest statement or good PR?!  You be the judge. I mean he was a bit of a douche for suing his buds, but at least he's fessing up. 

Waters left Pink Floyd in 1985 and subsequently pursued former bandmates Nick Mason and David Gilmour through the courts for their continued use of the Pink Floyd name and material. Now, in a new interview set to be broadcast on BBC tomorrow night (September 19) Water says he was wrong and that he regrets the decisions he made.

"I did, I did think that was wrong, and I was wrong!" Waters tells host Stephen Sackur. "Of course I was. Who cares? It was a commercial decision and in fact it’s one of the few times that the legal profession has taught me something. Because when I went to these chaps and said 'listen we’re broke, this isn’t Pink Floyd anymore', they went 'what do you mean? That’s irrelevant, it is a label and it has commercial value, you can't say it’s going to cease to exist, you obviously haven’t looked back to Runnymede, you obviously don’t understand English jurisprudence…It’s not about what you think, it’s about…it’s what it is'.”

Meanwhile, Waters also revealed he plans to release a new solo album, his first since 'Ça Ira' in 2005. "I’ve had a few breakthroughs recently which I won’t talk about, but I am going to make another record. I’ve had a very very strong idea, and I shall pursue it, and I will make at least one more record and I am really looking forward to getting my teeth stuck into it.

THE NEW SID VISCOUS AND NANCY SPUNGEN?

Some people may be able to pull off being on drugs and not looking all tattered and battered – Miley Cyrus – but not Sky Ferreira and her man! 2013’s Sid and Nancy in the making?!I  Let’s hope this doesn't become a recurring thing, but Sky Ferreira and Zachary Cole Smith of DIIV were arrested in New York on Friday night (September 13) after being found in possession of heroin and ecstasy. 
The pair, who are a couple, were driving through the city when police reportedly pulled the car over after seeing the driver commit a number of infractions. The Daily Freeman reports that upon pulling the vehicle off the road, they discovered Smith had a "plastic bag containing 42 decks of heroin" on him while Ferreira "was found in possession of ecstasy and resisted arrest". 

In addition to the drugs, Smith was charged with violations for having an unregistered motor vehicle, driving without insurance, unlicensed driver, and having an inadequate exhaust system. Smith, the frontman in DIIV, was "charged with two counts of criminal possession of a controlled substance, one count of
possession of stolen property and one count of aggravated unlicensed driving, all misdemeanors". Further reports by the Daily Freeman state, "Police said a registration check showed the license plates on the truck were stolen and the driver, Smith, was wanted by the Dutchess County Sheriff’s Office on an outstanding vehicle and traffic warrant." The couple was taken to the nearby Ulster County jail before being released on bail. 

OASIS REUNION - DEFINITELY MAYBE?

A spokesperson for Noel Gallagher has said that rumors the band will reunite and play a series of gigs at in 2014 are "not true". A story began circulating at the weekend with the UK press claiming that Noel and Liam Gallagher have been "approached by promoters willing to pay huge sums for them to play two shows to mark 20 years since their debut album 'Definitely Maybe'". A source told the paper "If the gigs happened, they would perform 'Definitely Maybe' from start to finish." However, a spokesperson from Noel Gallagher's PR company said simply: "It's not true" when approached by NME to comment on the story. This backs up Noel's own dismissal, which came earlier in the year. Asked during an appearance on Andy Goldstein and Jason Cundy's talkSPORT radio show on August 15 if there is any truth to reunion rumors, Gallagher replied with a simple "no". He was then asked whether he would like to reform the band next year, and once again responded with a short, sharp "no" before confirming: "No, it definitely won't happen."

And yet, I’m still hopeful… I mean you can never tell with them and rumors have been circulating for a bit, right?!

THE KILLERS RELEASE TWO NEW SONGS!

The Killers have the best dream pop songs! Like there's feelings of hope and happiness and you just want to dance around or fall in love. I know, cheeeessssey!  Anyway, based on the new song they just released – which by the way was produced by M83’s Anthony Gonzales so it has to be good! - they are still as awesome as before.

The band announced a previously rumored greatest hits album called Direct Hits, which will feature the song, “Shot at the Night,” and if you haven’t heard it scroll down and enjoy.  

The 15-track compilation will bring together hits like “Mr Brightside” and “Smile Like You Mean It” along with a second new cut rakishly-titled “Just Another Girl.”  I’ve been trying to find it, but no luck yet…

The audio for “Shot at the Night” has been released through Vevo, following much Facebook teasing for the track from the band that included morse code messages.

The deluxe awesome bad ass edition of “Direct Hits” will include a demo version of “Mr Brightside,” Be Still and Calvin Harris’s remix of “When You Were Young.”

BRITNEY IS AT "WORK BITCH" AND SHE'S LOOKING HOT!

It’s Britney Bitch! Britney Spears, prodigal pop princess is preparing for her return. She recently teased her fans about album #8 (we’re still not entirely sure what that countdown means), but now we’re getting some images and she’s looking fierce! 
The pop icon posted a pair of hot photos from her new music video shoot (presumably titled “Work Bitch”). 
One image is a still from the video itself, and the other features Spears in a blue bikini behind the scenes. The latter was accompanied by the note, “Gonna get my tan on in the desert in between shots on the #WorkBitch set today.”

Spears’ countdown finishes on September 17 at 9:30 a.m. ET, and she’s also set to appear on Good Morning America that day. It’s unclear if she’ll be making an announcement, offering a performance or both, but at least now we know officially that a new song/visual, which may or may not sample RuPaul, is imminent. Sorry Miley, this is TEAM BRITNEY!  Go bore someone else with you contrived “craziness,” and watered down pop.   

MILEY CYRUS GETS NAKED AND GIVES ANOTHER CRINGE WORTHY PERFORMANCE

The music video for her single "Wrecking Ball," which was directed by fashion photographer Terry Richardson, just debuted. The clip opens up with a vulnerable-looking Miley Cyrus staring into the camera with tears. 

Suddenly slutty Cyrus, starts to provocatively lick a sledgehammer with her big mouth before using the tool to knock down cement walls. Well at least she didn't do something else with it! Long story short she ends up naked and straddled on a huge wrecking ball. "Wrecking Ball," shown above, is the second single from Cyrus' Bangerz album, which is set to be released Oct. 4.

In other Cyrus news, the attention starved Disney kid gave a another cringe worthy performance. 

The Hanna Montana star turned ‘tacky slut’ that makes men and women both cringe at her site recently performed her 
number one single “We Can’t Stop” for German television, gracing the Schlagg Den Raab show with her usual cheesy style. But wait for it, one thing was different – this time were no over-sized teddy bears support her as she ‘twerked,’ or a foam finger to rub on her cooter, this time she was accompanied by a band of little people.

Besides the unexpected accompaniment, Miley’s performance was everything we thought it would be…BORING! 

And to think she compared herself to Madonna and Britney...no betch...you wish. Check out her performance with the little people below. 

LINDSEY LOHAN IN TROUBLE AGAIN

I am a fan of Lyndsey Lohan’s hot mess and wish her to be as awesome as she was when she filmed "Mean Girls," but sadly I don’t think that’s going to happen any time soon. Now she’s in more legal trouble. *sad face. 

Early this week she dined at a Manhattan sushi joint instead of showing up for a scheduled deposition in California. C’mion!

The “Mean Girls” star had been ordered by a judge to speak on the record about a 2010 incident involving celebrity photographer Grigor Balyan. Balyan claims Lohan’s assistant drove into him while leaving a Hollywood nightclub with Lohan in the passenger seat. He filed a lawsuit claiming he ended up in the hospital.

 “She was ordered to appear today at deposition. She did not appear. We were informed she may have been in New York, but we were also informed that she knew about today’s deposition,” Balyan’s lawyer Neil Steiner told the Daily News late Monday.

“Clearly, she has a lot on her plate,” he said, but “we believe she has some specific knowledge that is important in our lawsuit, and we do need to get her deposition.”

Duh! She has to go have sushi in NYC and then to da club!

Instead of sitting down with lawyers and a court reporter Monday, Lohan took a seat around 7:30 p.m. at LURE Fishbar in SoHo, where she dined with pals and had a blast! But she won’t be having fun when Steiner, a Beverly Hills lawyer, snitches on her.  He said her absence violated a court order and he planned to report  it to the judge. 

THE PIXIES RELEASE MORE NEW MUSIC W/ OUT KIM DEAL

With or without Kim Deal, the show Pixies show go on! The Pixies' recent four-track 'EP-1' is just the first in a series of mini-releases that the band will put out over the next 15 months, according to reports.

The band have plans to sporadically release more music throughout 2013 and 2014, with frontman Black Francis stating that they could only carry on touring with "some kind of new story".

"If we’re going to keep touring like this, we need some kind of new story, a new life, something," he said. Speaking about the track 'Indie Cindy' from the EP, meanwhile, he added: "It's all about self-doubt. It says to the audience: 'I don't know if this romance has still got what it needs to happen again. I don’t know if you'll accept me; I don't know if I accept you. But we have this memory. Can we do it again?'"

Although the band have not revealed how many more EPs there will be in the series, The New York Times says that they will all be released via the Pixies' website with no prior notice and will feature artwork from their long-time designer Vaughan Oliver.

Guitarist Joey Santiago, meanwhile, also spoke about the recent departure of bassist Kim Deal and suggested he was keen for her exit not to overshadow the band's future plans. "It took us three days to mourn about it," he said. "I hate to say it, but I'm not going to let one snafu get in the way. It's time to put on the guitar. It's time to shine. No-one is going to take that away from me." 

LAMAR ODEM TO SPILL KARDASHIAN SECRETS - SWEET REVENGE

They won't be smiling for long, HA! When bad shit happens to the Kardashians it just makes me laugh, because they are EVIL! Lamar Odem might be on drugs but wouldn't you be if you married into that family! The point is that he is not going down without dragging his ex and her family with him. To get back at the Kardashians for leaking all his business to TMZ the basketball player is considering publishing a tell-all book.

They say that he will get $5 million dollars as an advance for the book. And here is some of the juicy stuff they said will be in it:

With all of the bad publicity surrounding his DUI and trouble marriage, Lamar is hitting rock bottom and blaming his wife’s family.

“He’s freaking out because he’s losing everything. He feels all the Kardashians are against him,” the report claims.

And no one is off limits, especially not Khloe’s sister Kim. “Lamar may go after Kim, who can be a self-absorbed monster,” the magazine reports.

“Lamar could also expose what Kim’s done for money, who she’s slept with and the awful things she’s said about Kanye West, like how he smells bad in bed and how she’s not attracted to him.”

The Lamar Odom drama just got a heavier. He is going to SNITCH on the Kardashians cause they put him on blast for his crack use . . . . this is going to be good

OASIS WORKING WITH BLUR?!

What?! Oasis and Blur together?! Well maybe not the entire band, but definitely the two main songwriters. Now that Neel Gallagher is best buds with Damon Albarn, anything is possible.Anything except an Oasis reunion.

Gallagher has said that he is "interested" in working with Albarn but refuted claims Oasis will reform in 2014 and headline Glastonbury. What a total bummer, after all the rumors I almost believed they were reuniting.

Anyway, so Gallagher spoke about his friendship with the Blur frontman, as well as the future of Oasis, while at this year's GQ Awards where he collected an Icon prize. He said he’s is up for working with Albarn but there is no chance fans will see him back with brother Liam and Oasis next year.

When asked about the Oasis reunion inm 2014 reunion Gallagher spat a firm "no." However, his friendship with Albarn may move in a musical direction with Gallagher adding: "I like Damon and would be interested in working in something."

But the that’s not all the night wouldn’t be complete without Noel shitting on somebody.  And this time the insults were aimed at Foreign Secretary William Hague who was present at GQ Men Of The Year Awards in London on Tuesday night (September 4). Appearing on stage to collect his Icon prize, Gallagher told the audience: "Nice to see the Foreign Secretary here with all the shit going on in the world that he should be sorting out. Good for you."

LADY GAGA GETS NAKED FOR "v" MAG AND LOOKS FIERCE!

Lady Gaga Gets Naked For ‘V’ Magazine and she looks FIERCE! the magazine will have four covers and yes they are all bad ass. Check out the photo gallery!

Check out the multiple looks Gaga rocked for "V" magazine while stripped down to her birthday suit, rocking some boots, some gold make up, some ala naturale, and more.   

The photos come from the same shoot, and lens’ of Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin, which we’ve seen quite a few off in the past few months. Lady Gaga’s new album, ARTPOP, drops in November

FIONA APPLE: "NO APOLOGIES" AND KICKS OFF AGAIN! LOOK AT HER - MUST BE THE METH

 No question about it, Fiona is a total speed-head bitch!  I’m surprised the little bag of bones is still alive, and definitely kicking! News recently broke about her outburst at Louis Vuitton-hosted party in Tokyo last week where she told the audience to "shut the fuck up" before she stormed out. Now it seems, according to her crackness, that wasn’t what really happened. In a statement written to, Apple states that she had finished her full set before she stormed off stage.

“If it wouldn’t be too much trouble, if you could tweet to the twits who call themselves journalists(example Chris Martins of sit-and-Spin Magazine) that I FINISHED MY SET!!! I did my job, and they should do theirs too–They all miss the fact that there is a difference between the back-of-the-room-chatter that is simply annoying,–and the operatic drunken blather, or the heckling that is really just INTERRUPTING that makes it impossible for us to do our jobs. I hope your readers are already hip to the fact that they are consistently lied to… no apologies.” -Fiona.

I mean look at her and look -below- at what she used to look like. Someone please feed her... and take her to rehab!

NOEL GALLAGHER PUNKS RIHANNA

Here’s another reason why I ABSOLUTELY LOVE Noel Gallagher and why he makes me laugh so hard. The singer has called out Rihanna for travelling with a large entourage, comparing the pop singer's crew to a "fucking small army".

The former Oasis man ran into Rihanna's large team of advisers and assistants when the two artists were on the same bill at the Holmenkollen Sommerfestival in Oslo, Norway last year.

"I don't have an entourage, and when I do it's pathetic. Never more than two people," Gallagher said in an interview with GQ. "I was at a festival in Norway and Rihanna's just arrived with a hundred people. Fucking small army. And I had to go into this room, which was all just racks of clothing and stuff that designers and punters had brought to give to Rihanna. And they all had these cards in front of them, saying: 'Dear Rihanna, we are such huge fans, please accept this $90,000 handbag from whoever and whoever'."

So what did Gallagher do?  He paid a visit to Rihanna's room of gifts inspired him to lavish the singer with a present of his own. 
"And I'm reading all these cards as I'm waiting to go in," he recalled, "so I went back to my dressing room and got the little bowl of Cadbury's Sensations and left it there on her table with a card saying 'Dear Rihanna, please accept these chocolates on behalf of Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds'. And she took them. She fucking took them."

Meanwhile, Gallagher was presented with the prestigious Icon prize -cause he’s a bad ass- at last night's GQ Men Of The Year Awards, where other winners included Arctic Monkeys, Lou Reed, Elton John and The Who's Roger Daltrey. - 

MILEY CYRUS SAYS SHE WAS "MAKING HISTORY" WITH HER VMA PERFORMANCE

Miley Cyrus has explained that she wanted to "make history" with her controversial performance at the MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs) on August 25.  Well, If making yourself and other look like a fool is your idea of history then congrats Miley! Congrats on offering one of the cheesiest, lazy and straight up stupid performances. Lady gaga changed like five times during one song, Justin Timberlake danced all over the place, and all you did was rub a foam finger on your crotch and twerk. Somebody is obviously attention starved.  I will say that this performance did make me cringe so I suppose you did incite some emotion.  

During a medley of her recent Number One hit 'We Can't Stop' and Robin Thicke's singles 'Blurred Lines' and 'Give It 2 U', Cyrus stripped down to a flesh-coloured bikini and was seen pointing at Thicke's crotch with a foam finger before "twerking" provocatively against the front of Thicke's striped trousers. Ooohhhh how crazy!

The performance became a hot topic online and drew criticism from a leading US parents' group and the inventor of the foam finger, who claimed that the singer had "degraded" an "icon".

Discussing the reaction to the performance, Cyrus said: "I don't pay attention to the negative because I've seen this play out so many times. How many times have we seen this play out in pop music? Madonna's done it. Britney's done it. Every VMA performance, that's what you're looking for; you're wanting to make history." She also revealed that she and Thicke were aware they were going to push buttons with their performance, saying: "Me and Robin the whole time said, 'You know we're about to make history right now.'"

The idiocy beguiles me! Miley, you are NOT Britney or Madonna, you are just a try hard! Why oh why did you have to murder Hanna Montana?! 

COURTNEY LOVE HATES KATY PERRY BUT LOVES SAVAGES

Courtney Love has revealed she is a massive fan of Savages and wants to tour with the British band.

The former Hole singer singled out 'Shut Up', the first jam from the band's debut album 'Silence Yourself', which came out this May, for special praise.

"I was listening to this incredible new band - it's mostly girls, out of England - called the Savages. They are amazing," Love said in an interview with Vanity Fair. "There is a song called 'Shut Up'. It's kind of very Siouxsie Sioux.  And they're gorgeous! Shaved heads."

Love continued her praise for the band while taking a dig at cheesy Katy Perry: "Anyway, I would love to tour with them. I just wrote them a gushy girl fan letter because I had been listening to their stuff all day and I get so excited whenever I see a new female artist that's good and doesn’t have fireworks coming out of her tits." 

Pwahaha , admit it that’s funny!

Meanwhile, the singer and fascinating nutto also revealed that she wants to call her forthcoming memoir, due this Christmas, Girl With The Most Cake in reference to one of Hole's most famous lyrics.

Describing how the memoir is likely to turn out, she explained: "You know, it ain't going to be [Patti Smith's memoir] Just Kids. When I get older and greyer and really can sit down w the old typewriter and start bashing away. This is more like the book I aspire to, which I have on my bed stand, which is Russell Brand's My Booky Wook - which is the lamest name ever."

"50 SHADES OF GREY" CAST REVEALED AND IT IS...

Dakota Johnson lands the key role of Anastasia Steele, Charlie Hunnam as Christian Grey in the film adaptation of E.L. James' 'Fifty Shades of Grey.'

I know, he wasn’t my first pick either, but hey maybe he’ll surprise us. I mean he’s a rad actor and a hottie, so I will hold my judgment until I the film is out. But c’mon look at all the other hot sauces they had to choose from!

On the other hand when they first suggested Alexis Bledel as Anastasia I thought meh. Emma Watson would have been perfect! But Dakota seems like a good fit and I hope she makes this movie as steamy as the book. All in all it is really about chemistry and if these two have it, then everyone can be happy and get their pants wet    

Author E.L. James announced the news on Monday morning in a number of bombshell tweets. She started with Johnson, the daughter of Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson. Distributor Focus Features confirmed it shortly thereafter.

"I am delighted to let you know that the lovely Dakota Johnson has agreed to be our Anastasia in the film adaptation of Fifty Shades of Grey," the first tweet said, ending months of breathless speculation.

Moments later James wrote, "The gorgeous and talented Charlie Hunnam will be Christian Grey in the film adaptation of Fifty Shades of Grey."

FIONA APPLE "SHUT THE FUCK UP" TO FANS BEFORE LEAVING LOUIS VUITTON EVENT

Last night, Fiona Apple performed at a Louis Vuitton event in Tokyo and once again threw another hissy fit. This time she left the stage quickly after becoming frustrated with the attendees. 
Of course it’s always the audience’s fault that her tweakness is unhappy. People need to stop giving her 8-balls before her shows! 

The event celebrated a new exhibition at the city’s Tokyo Station Hotel (which is also where the performance took place) called Timeless Muses that honors women like Sofia Coppola, Kate Moss, and Catherine Deneuve, among others. Really and there was no one else available?! This shit was funny like 10 years ago, now its just annoying and pathetic. 

The chatty crowd irritated Apple and it inspired her to interrupt her own set by climbing atop the grand piano she was performing at and ask them for some quiet, going so far as to dare them to be silent for as long as the noise from a bell she rung. Maybe is she wasn't so cracked out she’s actually entertain the audience. When the audience’s noise persisted, she demanded that they “shut the fuck up” as she continued her set. She continued scream, “Predictable! Predictable fashion, what the fuck?” before storming off stage.  

No honey, predictable are your drug induced tantrums onstage. Somebody feed her a cracker or something...
