The nominees for the 2012 MTV Video Music Awards have been released, and it’s time to cast your votes. Along with frontrunners Rihanna and Drake (who were nominated in a whopping five categories each), several other bands and artists received multiple nominations, including Coldplay, Gotye, fun., M.I.A., Skrillex and more.
At this point, trying to count how many videos include Carly Rae Jepsen‘s viral hit ‘Call Me Maybe’ is akin to counting how many stars there are in the universe. Abercrombie & Fitch models have lip-synced it, the Cookie Monster has spoofed it, and even Katy Perry and her friends released their own homage after Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez did their own.
But while we may not know exactly how many versions are out there, we do know the latest ‘Call Me Maybe’ video to gain fame: ladies and gentlemen, we give you the US Olympic swim team.
Lady Gaga is really turning her LittleMonsters.com social media network into the prime destination and preferred hub for all things Gaga.
Right after sharing the first-ever personal photo of her boyfriend, actor Taylor Kinney, with the adorbs caption “Me and T.,” Gaga announced the Little Monsters Film Project. So what’s that all about? Well, little monsters, you can create films based on Gaga and her music. If she likes what you do, she’ll use it for one of her new songs! That’s a chance of a lifetime right?
July 26, 2012 TMZ reports that the Vancouver Police Department is investigating a claim by singer Carly Rae Jepsen that her computer was hacked and some racy pictures of the singer stolen.
July 24, 2012 I've been toying with the idea of writing a book. Clearly, I dig music, but people write about music all the time. Horses are no different, but most of the stuff you find is informational, not anecdotal. If you're in to horses, then you know they're a source of constant frustration and LAUGHS! I took at stab at an opening... What do you think? Help a sister out!
It looks like user submitted cover videos of everyone’s favorite songs is the way to get famous nowadays. Sex tapes are soooo passe. It was really Carly Rae Jepsen‘s ‘Call Me Maybe’ that started the whole trend. Everyone from actor James Franco to shirtless Abercrombie + Fitch boys seemed to jump on the Jepsen train. But now some really big stars (and stripes) are getting in on the action!
Throughout the night, 2012 Teen Choice Awards hosts Demi Lovato and Kevin McHale (that dude that plays Artie on ‘Glee‘) teased the audience, mentioning that viewers were asked to submit videos of them singing along to Carly Rae Jepsen‘s hit song ‘Call Me Maybe.’
Whether you love the songs or hate the songs — or love one and find the other somewhat annoying, as some of us do — Gotye‘s ‘Somebody That I Used to Know’ and teen star Carly Rae Jepsen‘s ‘Call Me Maybe’ are two of the biggest, most ubiquitous and most unavoidable hits of 2012. So, what happens when two such massively successful songs become one?
“This is my sanctuary — this is my home. This is where I feel most comfortable.” Jason Derulo is seated like a king at the epicenter of a rented studio in Burbank that is encased with a simple, yet modern aesthetic — black leather sofas and muted-colored walls, a switchboard only used by the elite producers, and glass windows dividing the studio from the adjacent sound booth. Dim lighting hovers over us, but Derulo’s demeanor is anything but dark.
Carly Rae Jepsen is more than capable of writing and performing a pop hit by her lonesome — see the ever-ubiquitous ‘Call Me Maybe’ for proof — but she really likes working with other artists, too. She’s adding more to her roster, which already includes Owl City, Justin Bieber and Redfoo of LMFAO. Who’s up next?
Miley Cyrus is a pretty awesome sister. Her brother, Trace Cyrus, released a video for his new project, Ashland High. The song, ‘Sippin’ on Sunshine,’ is a summer ditty, and the video features the future Mrs. Liam Hemsworth and her signature top knot.
Carly Rae Jepsen is in the public eye all the time, whether she’s partying with Katy Perry or performing with Justin Bieber. But for as much as we see and hear her, we don’t actually know too much about her life — specifically, her dating life. So is she single or taken, maybe?
