+ You'd think one of the most innovative directors in the history of music videos might have some time for one of the artists that's, more or less, keeping the medium alive. But Michel Gondry, who has shot clips for Bjork, Radiohead and The Foo Fighters, has very little time for Lady Gaga. Seems the auteur is not so into the music, and it pretty much kills the videos for him. Says Gondry: "To me it's like a form of Marilyn Manson. It's hard for me to talk about it; I’ve seen a couple of videos of hers, and not for very long. I stop watching them each time because I don’t think there's melodies. I’m sorry to be negative."

+ While Gaga might be smarting from Gondry's showing of the hand, she can take solace in the fact that another, much more famous person thinks she's "really hot." Twilight and Runaways star, Kristen Stewart, recently copped to being a fan, making the somewhat obvious observation, "She's got a look." (MTV News)
+ Possibly the only amusing story involving an overdose you'll ever hear: Foo Fighters main man Dave Grohl recently made an emergency trip to the doctor's office to deal with side effects from ingesting too much coffee. Seems Grohl had too much java while recording for the supergroup Them Crooked Vultures. (Spinner)
+ The budding romance between Demi Lovato and Joe Jonas took a rather celestial turn recently. The two took some time out from saving the world to attend church together. <3 it. (Idolator)
+ A while back Bret Michaels recorded a duet with Miley Cyrus called "Nothing To Lose." We promptly responded with a hearty, WTF? Now the Poison frontman has come forward to explain there's "no weirdness" about the song. (PopEater)
