Beyonce And Solange Bond Over Beers At Made In America

by 1 hour ago

Labor Day is for family and friends. And while you’re hanging with your kin, Beyoncé is no different. Not only was Bey getting snuggly with husband Jay Z at the Made in America Festival, but she also spent some sibling time with Solange.

True Life: I Shot Kanye West’s Made In America Set From The Photo Pit

The two sisters took a break from the festival to pose for an Instagram on Monday (September 1), swapping smiles while sipping on beer.

Bey and Sol weren’t the only sisters bonding at Made in America. Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner were snapped holding hands in the crowd, dressed in all black.

All right, there’s your celeb sibling update for Labor Day. I’m going to find my sister and go push her into the pool or something. It’s all love.

Carrie Underwood Announces Pregnancy With Adorable Dog Pic

by 8 mins ago

Carrie Underwood made the ultimate Labor Day pun on Monday (September 1) when she announced her pregnancy on Twitter. The country star cuddled up with her two dogs, who were wearing “I’m going to be a big brother/sister” shirts. Couldn’t get any cuter.

“In honor of ‘Labor’ Day…Ace & Penny would like to make an announcement. Their parents couldn’t be happier!” she wrote.

Underwood is expecting with husband Mike Fisher, a NHL player for the Nashville Predators. After two years of dating (they met at one of her concerts in 2008 in Toronto), the couple married in 2010.

Jessie Ware’s Disco Jam ‘Want Your Feeling’ Has Perfect Timing: Listen

by 38 mins ago

Jessie Ware just rode in a gust of warm, summer air with her new track “Want Your Feeling,” produced by Blood Orange’s Dev Hynes.

The song, off the upcoming sophomore album Tough Love, out October 21, takes me to a coastal town on the Mediterranean, providing a ’70s soundtrack as I dance through the streets and seaports. Salty air, summer breezes, a groovy beat, romance — it’s all there.

OK, maybe I’m just describing “Mama Mia,” but it’s justifiable, because “Want Your Feeling” is the disco ditty I’ve been waiting for all summer. And now that summer is ending, well, I guess Ware has made everything complete.

Ariana Grande Compliments ‘Today’ Host’s Butt: ‘Dat Booty Doe’

by 1 min ago

Not only did Ariana Grande help Al Roker do the weather this morning — and sing four songs outside Rockefeller Center — but she had a chance to comment on “Today” show host Tamron Hall’s butt. Sure, she was demure when Matt Lauer asked her about her love life, but when it came time to watch a clip of Tamron’s appearance in “Running Wild With Bear Grylls,” she went all in.

When the clip ended, Ariana just had to chime in: “Dat booty doe.” While Tamron was embarrassed, Al claimed, “She just said what we were all thinking.” Oof.

And here’s the shorter version just so you can hear Ariana say it over and over.

From Ariana Grande To Redfoo: These 9 Pop Songs Make Saxophones Sexy

by 8 mins ago

We’re bringing saxy back! A few months after the fat sax loop on Ariana Grande’s “Problem,” Redfoo is making woodwinds cool again with “New Thang,” a song he released on Sunday.

But this isn’t the first time we’ve glorified the reed instrument in pop music. Let’s go back to an earlier time — 2005 to be exact — when the sax flowed aplenty and J.Lo looked…exactly the same.

1.) Jennifer Lopez — “Get Right”
I remember first hearing this on the bus ride to school and having my mind blown. Band instruments can be used in Top 40 music? And it can sound extremely sexy? There really was nothing like it.

2.) Katy Perry“Last Friday Night (TGIF)”
Things stayed jazzy well into 2011, with Katy including a sax solo on her Teenage Dream summer single. Kenny G played the saxophonist in the video, if you remember.

3.) Lady Gaga — “The Edge of Glory”
Also that summer, Mother Monster dropped this Clarence Clemons-assisted Born This Way track. The E Street Band musician also appeared in the video.

4.) M83 — “Midnight City”
The echoy electronics of M83 made the sax solo at the end of this song a little surprising. Nevertheless, Fitz and The Tantrums’ James King wailed away. 2011 was a big year for sax.

5.) Le1f — “Wut”
Welcome to 2012, the year of the sax loops. Le1f, a.k.a. Khalif Diouf, took a few sax notes and tapped ...

Happy Birthday, Liam Payne! Here Are 21 Ways You’re Still Young At Heart

by 1 min ago

If it weren’t for your Britishness, I’d say that Friday (August 29) is a big milestone for you, Liam Payne. Today, you’re turning 21 — an adult by American standards because now you can legally drink alcohol in the States.

Since you and your One Direction bandmates spend a lot of time in the U.S., let’s celebrate this milestone with your most playful moments.

Now, I could show you a picture of younger Liam with boyish grin:

baby scooby

But he’s different now. He chopped off his hair two years ago! He poses in GQ! He shows off his abs! He wears flannel!

Perhaps we can find a happy medium — mature Liam acting like a kid. After all, we’re all kids at heart, and who doesn’t like a guy with a sense of humor?

1. Only Directioners can appreciate this.

2. You still pick your nose. That’s rad. We all do.

Grimes Is A Desert Nomad/Neon Raver In ‘Go’ Video: Watch

by 10 mins ago

Not only did Grimes and labelmate Blood Diamonds hook up for “Go,” but they decided to go on a trippy desert conquest together for its video.

Grimes and Blood Diamonds go desert nomad for the clip, floating sheets of satin behind them and throwing sand in the air. And while the landscape may be an homage to 2012′s “Genesis,” other scenes show her undulating uncomfortably in a fish-eye lens, flanked by two mimes. She highlights the song’s club-ready beat with neon, blacklights and strobes, recreating the chaos of the track, which was originally meant for Rihanna.

Fifth Harmony Say They ‘Had A Moment’ With Blue Ivy At The VMAs

by 8 mins ago

Fifth Harmony had no speech planned when they went up to accept the award for Artist to Watch at the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday — but at least Beyoncé knew they won an award.

In our backstage interview with 5H, Dinah explained how excited she was that Bey was in the audience: “What freaked me out is that Beyoncé’s people, they were all congratulating us, her crew. And I was like, ‘So Beyoncé knows that we got an award too.’ ”

Blue Ivy saw the girls, too, and Dinah claims she locked eyes with the 2-year-old tot.

“I sat right next to her family, and me and Baby Blue had a moment together. And I always talk about wanting to babysit this child, and we actually had a moment,” she said, bouncing up and down. “I’m like, ‘Yes, I’m gonna babysit you, girl. It’s gonna happen.’ ”
