Lady Gaga Announces Launch Of Born This Way Foundation

Lady Gaga’s Born This Way Foundation will launch February 29 with a fete at Harvard University, the singer and her mother and co-founder, Cynthia Germanotta, announced in a statement on Thursday (January 19). BTWF was created to promote youth empowerment and equality by encouraging self-confidence and well-being and bringing bullying to an end.

Joining the pop star at Sanders Theatre will be her partners in the endeavor: Harvard’s Berkman Center for Internet and Society, the MacArthur Foundation and the California Endowment.

Gaga has long been a staunch supporter of anti-bullying legislation, reportedly meeting with President Obama to discuss the topic in September and visiting the White House in early December to discuss the issue with administration officials. She dedicated her performance of “Hair” at the iHeartRadio Festival in Las Vegas to Jamey Rodemeyer, a 14-year-old fan who took his own life after years of anti-gay harassment. And last year, Gaga toppedDoSomething.org’s list of the most charitable celebrities, in part for her work on behalf of gay rights causes.

“My daughter’s foundation was born out of her passion to create a better world where people are kinder and nicer to one another and are accepted for who they are, regardless of how different they may be,” Germanotta said. “She has experienced many of the struggles that our youth encounter today, and identifies with the lasting effects they can have without proper support. Together, we look forward to creating a new movement that will engage and empower youth and accept them as valuable members of our society.”

The Mother Monster’s commitment to the gay community was again recognized Thursday (January 19) with a nomination for Outstanding Music Artist at the GLAAD Media Awards.The awards recognize fair, accurate and inclusive representations of the LGBT community across all media. In December, the diva was recognized with the Hero Award by the Trevor Project, a nonprofit organization that offers suicide-prevention services to LGBT youth.

During acceptance speech at Trevor Project Live, Gaga touched on her wishes to someday make bullying a hate crime. “I hope that we can acknowledge all together that where this needs to begin is in the schools,” Gaga said. “I want my fans and people all over the world to know that there’s always somebody that’s listening. But I want them to know they’re listening before it gets too late.”

Maintenant que Steven Tyler a demandé Erin Brady en mariage, le chanteur d’Aerosmith a décidé qu’il était grand temps de se reprendre en main.

Invité dans l’émission d’Ellen DeGeneres, l’artiste a confié qu’il en avait assez des cures de désintoxication et de l’alcool. Pour Tyler, il est maintenant temps de se préserver et de veiller à garder celle qui lui est chère.

“Tous mes amis sont maintenant sobres. Je ne veux plus retourner dans ce monde. Mais on ne sait jamais si on va y arriver. Je m’en tiens juste à mon programme, je le souhaite et j’espère. Je ne veux pas revivre ça. Ca m’a fait perdre mes enfants, un mariage, un groupe, beaucoup de choses. Et c’est la réalité. C’est vous dire comme c’est dangereux. Donc je prends ça au sérieux”, a confié le chanteur.

Katy Perry may not have been in the house for the 2012 People’s Choice Awards on Wednesday night, but the five-time winner certainly appreciated all the trophies from afar.

Perry had been up for seven awards and managed to take home five of them at the fan-voted awards show, hosted by “The Big Bang Theory” leading lady Kaley Cuoco. So, what did Perry win? She nabbed Favorite TV Guest Star for her cameo on “How I Met Your Mother,” Favorite Female Artist, Favorite Song of the Year for “E.T” featuring Kanye West, Favorite Music Video for “Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)” and Favorite Tour Headliner.

“THANK U to every1 who voted for me for the @peopleschoice tonight! We won so many!” she tweeted. “Now I need to get more books 2 successfully display them!”

After her split from Russell Brand had been confirmed, Perry later revealed that she’d skip the awards show. She has been lying low since the New Year’s announcement that she and her husband of one year would be divorcing.

But she wasn’t the only absent winner excited for all the love from her fans.Taylor Swift was home in Music Town when she nabbed the prize for Favorite Country Artist. “Thank you so much for my People’s Choice Award! Favorite Country Artist! PARTY!!!” she tweeted from her home in Nashville. “Seriously- thank you for voting.”

Other big winners of the night included Emma Stone, “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2″ and Demi Lovato, who not only took home the trophy for Favorite Pop Artist but also performed her song “Give Your Heart a Break” during the show.

Beyoncé’s Blue Ivy Showered with $1.5M in Gifts

iamusic — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 20:15:52 +0000

The arrival of hip-hop princess Blue Ivy has caused quite a stir in Hollywood. The firstborn child of Beyoncé and Jay-Z has been lavished with more than $1.5 million in gifts — from a rocking horse made of gold to a “fantasy” crib fit for royalty.

According to the NY Post, Blue Ivy’s dad purchased a handmade horse from Japanese Jeweler Ginza Tanaka for a staggering $600K.

For naptime, Blue will rest her sleepy head inside her $20K crib from PoshTots, and for mealtime, the tiny diva will eat from her $15K highchair decorated with Swarovski crystals.

These are just a few of the ultra-chic baby gifts Beyoncé and Jay-Z have splurged on for their little one — which totals $1.5 million.

Blue was whisked away from Lenox Hill Hospital to her home on Tuesday, after a weekend filled with top-notch security, military-like precision to keep the family away from paparazzi, and annoyed parents in the hospital’s maternity ward.

MONTRÉAL — Le guitariste de la formation Black Sabbath, Tony Iommi, est atteint d’un lymphome.

Le groupe Black Sabbath a utilisé sa page Facebook officielle (facebook.com/BlackSabbath) pour annoncer la maladie de Tony Iommi, lundi après-midi.

Le rocker souffre d’un lymphome (un cancer du système lymphatique dont la maladie de Hodgkin fait partie), mais on ne sait pas quel organe est touché.

«Les membres du groupe souhaitent que tout le monde envoie des ondes positives au guitariste. Tony Iommi travaille actuellement avec ses médecins afin d’établir la meilleure stratégie de traitement. Le “Iron Man” du rock demeure optimiste et déterminé à se rétablir complètement», a écrit le groupe.

De plus, Black Sabbath a souligné que ce diagnostic ne mettait pas en péril le projet de sortir un album – le premier en 33 ans –, l’automne prochain.

Ainsi qu’il est précisé sur la page: «Ozzy Osbourne (voix), Tony Iommi (guitare), Geezer Butler (basse) et Bill Ward (percussions) sont en train d’écrire et d’enregistrer l’album. [...] Des informations supplémentaires seront publiées au fur et à mesure.»

Les membres de la formation n’ont pas précisé si leur tournée mondiale – qui doit débuter le 18 mai prochain, à Moscou, en Russie – serait maintenue.

Blink-182 drummer takes to Twitter to rant about driving violation

Even rock stars get pulled over by the cops. Just ask Travis Barker. The drummer for Blink-182 has been called in by the Los Angeles Police Department for questioning over a traffic violation, reports TMZ.

According to the report, police want to speak to Barker after he went to social networking site Twitter to rant about an officer who stopped him for a driving violation. The event occurred on Sunday (Nov. 27), when Barker was stopped by police and given a ticket for allegedly driving with no license plate and illegally tinted windows.

Blowing off some steam on Twitter, Barker exclaimed, “’Find some bank robbers or do something productive 2 do with your time. I know high school was hard 4 u.” Later, he also stated, “Pullin me over and interrogating me & acting like u did over tinted windows till u scared the piss out of my kids was uncalled 4. Job well done man.” After those tweets went out, the police came knocking. According to TMZ, LAPD Sgt. Riggs has asked Barker to settle the tiff, stating, “I’d like to invite Travis to speak with me about the incident and possibly discuss the incident with the officers involved.”

Blink-182 released their sixth studio album, Neighborhoods, in September, and the album’s current single, “After Midnight,” is currently No. 16 on the alternative rock radio chart. The punk-pop trio got back together in 2009 for a major reunion tour, but it wasn’t until this year that they popped out new material. Watch Blink-182’s party-happy video for, “Up All Night,” on the artist page.
