+ Pregnancy(or not) aside, Ashlee Simpson likes barbecue. OMG! WE HAVE SO MUCH IN COMMON! (We are not pregnant, however, in case you’re reading this, Mom. We do love barbecue, though.) (People)

+ Amy Winehouse’s next album may be on hold. Which would probably be the least of her problems. (Dlisted)

+ Speaking of Amy Winehouse, Duffy is Dolce & Gabanna’s new muse, dahling. Next stop — PEOPLE’S REVOLUTION! (Mirror)

+ Hi! We’re t.A.T.u! Remember us? Here’s what we look like now! Next stop: SOFT-CORE PORN! (ONTD)

+ Hi! I’m Bill Cosby! (Remember me?) I’m 70 years old. I used to be cool and wear Coogi and push Pudding Pops, but these days I’m pretty pissed. Anyway, I’m purportedly releasing a hip-hop album. Because I’m the Mack Granddaddy. Flismflasm! (Holy Moly)

New Video: Duffy, ‘Mercy’

281×2112.jpg

Comparisons between Amy Winehouse and 24-year-old Welsh singer-songwriter Duffy go together like Velveeta and shell mac. But Amy Winehouse’s horn-flanked Mark Ronson productions are intentionally post-modern. However, watch Duffy’s “Mercy” video with your eyes closed, and you might actually mistake that voice for Aretha Franklin’s. Open them, and you’ve got a Dusty Springfield dead ringer. We’re hooked.

Watch her brand-new “Mercy” video, and check out an exclusive Buzzworthy clip of Duffy discussing the inspiration behind the video.
