We've all got a place in our heart for, yes, even Kanye. Wait, Let me finish- "Im'a explain" This has been a big year for Kanye West.  He dropped a new album, had a child with Kim Kardashian and now is recently engaged.  The guy seems unstoppable.  There aren't many people in  Entertainment or Sports Celebrities that get this kind of publicity, He's had a few crazy outrageous moments, of course, and is now touring for his Yeezus album.  This Saturday he'll be performing with Kendrick Lamar at Madison Square Garden.  Sunday he'll be performing with A Tribe Called Quest. He seems to always be doing things his way regardless of what others are going to say about him.  He started to come out wearing the confederate flag and told Ryan Seacrest on his morning show that he was taking back the symbol.  Although it is a risky move, he is commended on his boldness.  Who knows how it will go over in the long run, and if people will even take to t...

Justin, Justin, Justin.  What's going on, guy?  You seem to be quite the trouble maker these days. If you haven't noticed, Justin Bieber's name has been surrounded by chaos lately.  Just this past weekend he was booed on stage after only performing for an hour.  He had gotten on the Buenos Aires stage an hour and a half late because of a day spent in the hospital.  He wrote  "food poisoning is #allbad" on his twitter to fans earlier with a picture of him and an IV drip.   Do we give him credit for still getting up on stage even for a little while?  I guess so, but kid, what are you eating over there that keeps giving you food poisoning.  Seems best to stay away from that, your fans need you.   This incident is following a handful of others on tour.  A video surfaced of a woman videotaping a sleeping Bieber and tweeting money she allegedly was given by the singer.  He has also been charged with graffiti in Brazil whic...

Who doesn't like a good concert?  The music is loud, it's live and your favorite artist is on stage... what could be better. How about being front row while the music is loud, it's live and your favorite artist is on stage?  It can actually get even cooler if you're Valentina Attard.  This past weekend the 15-year-old wanted to take a picture of herself at a Beyonce concert. Next thing she knew, Beyonce was right behind her posing for a selfie with her.  Attard wrote on her tumblr that she asked the singer to take the photo with her.  After, she wrote that "it was such a blur i just remember her bending down to me and my friend and i just turned for the photo and wowoowow it was the best moment ever like she posed its crazy i wasnt even expecting her to look at my phone or notice me in the crowd." While Attard was taking the picture, there is also video footage of Beyonce bending down mid song to pose with the girl.  You can see it  HERE  a...
