Lily Allen to Quit Music?

April 1, 2009

Lily Allen is poised to begin a U.S. tour tonight in San Diego, but after that, who knows!

Says the singer:

“After this album and tour I have a brand new business I am setting up, but I can’t say what it is yet. I am definitely considering quitting music.”

Is Allen being serious???

M.I.A. Does Not Give Birth at Grammys

February 9, 2009

Woulda been awesome, but M.I.A.‘s water did not break onstage during her Grammys performance tonight.

Instead, she, Kanye West, T.I., Jay-Z and Lil Wayne performed a slightly chaotic rendition of “Swagger Like Us.”
We were secretly hoping that the stress of sharing the stage with rap’s elitists would have induced her pregnancy!!!
Oh well.
