Please Enjoy These Photos Of Skrillex, Prince Of Dubstep, Riding Rides At Disneyland!

Posted 14 hours ago by in Celebrity, Must See, Photos

Skrillex and a lucky girl had a fun day down at Disneyland in Anaheim.

Skrillex, aka the Prince of Dubstep, absolutely SHUT DOWN Disneyland.

Is there any happier place on Earth than Disneyland (other than Disney World)? Like, you can spend the entire day surrounded by life-size versions of cartoons from your childhood (or adulthood, who are we kidding?), you can stuff your face with churros and other bad-for-you foods, AND you can ride in plastic versions of your favorite Disney characters! What's not to like?! (Before You Exit know what we're talking about.) And yes, we've been to Disney, but we don't think we've EVER done Disneyland half as well as Skrillex. Judging by these TOO GOOD photos of Skrillex's recent visit to Disneyland, he walked around like a dubstep God among men: spinning in teacups, shooting down roller coasters, and waving his hands in the air (presumably like he didn't care). Us non-famous people may attend theme parks, but celebrities OWN them.

Thirty Seconds To Mars Have A Frank And Open Discussion About Sex. Because Someone Has To (VIDEO)

Posted 5/22/13 5:55 pm EST by in Celebrity, Interviews, Music, Must See, Videos

thirty seconds to mars talk sex

Thirty Seconds To Mars discuss sex versus power in their Love Lust Faith + Dreams lyrics.

By now you've had a little over 24 hours to sit with Thirty Seconds To Mars' LOVE LUST FAITH + DREAMS album, a grandiose, thunderous, transcendental, at times hallucinogenic, nakedly vulnerable adrenaline-fueled romp through the deepest corners of human desire. The deepest corners that can be reached by aggressive synths, roaring choruses, and gut-wrenching catharses, the likes of which haven't resonated on an album so powerfully since, oh, I don't know, Bono stood atop the Republic Liquor Store on the corner of 7th and Main in downtown Los Angeles and belted out "Where The Streets Have No Name."

And speaking of vulnerably naked and reaching deep corners... (good transition, huh?) I had a frank discussion with Thirty Seconds To Mars about the new album and one of its four main tenants: lust. I didn't mean for it to turn into sex, but somehow it just did. We've all been there, right?

Watch Thirty Seconds To Mars discuss sexuality in LOVE LUST FAITH + DREAMS after the jump!

Miley Cyrus Tweeted Britney And Justin's Denim Couples Costume, So We Created The Photobomb Of Our Fantasies (PHOTO)

Posted 5/21/13 4:05 pm EST by in Celebrity, Must See, Photos

miley cyrus photobomb

Miley Cyrus photobombing Justin and Britney circa 2001 is the stuff fantasies are made of.

Hey, Miley Cyrus, we know you're having an awesome week, what with your new "We Can't Stop" countdown clock and presenting/eye-rolling Justin Bieber's win at the 2013 Billboard Music Awards, but we just need to hold everything a moment and CELEBRATE a) your Twitter account and b) your posting our favorite JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE AND BRITNEY SPEARS IN DENIM 4-EVER PHOTO. Except we couldn't just leave it the way it was; we love what we wish was Britney and Justin's double denim wedding pic so much, that we took things one step further and made it the photobomb of our fantasies!

Posting the now-famous pic of Britney and Justin attending the 2001 American Music Awards in matchy-matchy denim to Twitter, Miley memed "NEVER FORGET" with the caption "This happened." Oh, we we'll never forget this pop cultural nugget, Milers. And just to sweeten the deal, we know how much you like to pop up in people's photos, AND how badly you probably wish you'd been around to photobomb the Canadian tuxedo'd couple (both parties have certainly improved their fashion sense over the years, especially Mr. "Suit & Tie" over here), so we added/photobombed you in! See? It's like you were always there! ("The Internet" = Time Machine)

Gorillaz Fans, Meet 'Pig Monster,' A New Character Design From Damon Albarn And Jamie Hewlett's 'Monkey: Journey To The West'

Posted 5/21/13 1:30 pm EST by in Celebrity, Music, Must See, Photos

Meet Pig Monster: a new design from Gorillaz frontman, Damon Albarn.

Meet Pig Monster: the latest character design by Jamie Hewlett for the next incarnation of "Monkey: Journey to the West."

Apparently not content after forming two of the best Brit pop and indie-hip-hop hybrid bands ever, Damon Albarn of Blur and Gorillaz, has composed a musical score, too. (He knows he can take a break, right?) The musical, "Monkey: Journey to the West," is the stage adaptation of the 16th century Chinese novel Journey to the West, by Wu Cheng. The musical experience was written and directed by Chinese actor/ director Chen Shi-Zheng and features a score by Damon Albarn and illustrations by Jamie Hewlett. It first premiered in 2007, and it's being resurrected for a run in New York City this summer, where it will feature new character designs, like "Pig Monster," which we have an exclusive first look at above.

"Pig Monster" is just one of the many strange creatures that the monk Tripitaka encounters on his operatic journey from China to India, foiled and prodded along by the trickster Monkey King, in a spectacle that brings together animation, musical theater, martial artists, and acrobats, which, coincidentally, is exactly how we'd describe what it looks like getting us out of bed in the morning before work every day.

The latest incarnation of the show, which premiered at the Manchester International Festival in 2007, followed up by dates at the Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris and the Royal Opera House in London, will run from July 6–28 at the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts in New York City. Get there any way you can... if you're not terrified by feral pigs.

MKTO Is Obsessed With Cool Ranch Doritos Tacos, Bizarre Socks, And Ellie Goulding (VIDEO)

Posted 5/21/13 11:00 am EST by in Celebrity, Interviews, Music, Must See, Videos

10 Things I'm Obsessed With with MKTO.

Did you know that MKTO is obsessed with Cool Ranch Dorito Tacos? WELL, NOW YOU DO! 

Electro-pop/hip-hop/R&B outfit MKTO (that's singer Tony Oller and rapper Malcolm David Kelley) met on the set of TeenNick's "Gigantic" and have been IRL BFFs and musical collaborators ever since. Thanks to their bangin' single "Thank You" (think a perfect blend of Chiddy Bang, Wallpaper., and a smidge of Outasight), the boys have been on our radar for well over a minute, and during that time, we got, how shall we say... A LITTLE CURIOUS. So of COURSE we arranged for a little tête-à-tête with MKTO so we could find about about all the things they're obsessed with: things like Cool Ranch Dorito tacos from Taco Bell, totally weird socks, and "Family Guy."

Watch MKTO's "10 Things I'm Obsessed With" after the jump.

Album Premiere: New Politics, 'A Bad Girl In Harlem'

Posted 5/20/13 7:00 am EST by in Celebrity, Music, Must See

Stream New Politics' brand-new album "A Bad Girl In Harlem."

New Politics explore single life in NYC on their sophomore release.

Copenhagen rock trio New Politics are naturally gifted at getting hearts racing -- just reference their shouty, high-energy tracks like "Yeah Yeah Yeah" and "Nuclear War." Heck, listen to their entire 2010 self-titled debut while you're at it, which comes packed with shrieking punk-tinged auditory references to Beastie Boys, Rage Against The Machine, The Hives, and Thirty Seconds To Mars. Now, after spending a few years in New York City and releasing their rowdy garage rock anthem "Harlem" last November, New Politics are gearing up to drop a brand-new album, A Bad Girl In Harlem, which you can listen to in full before its release.

Listen to New Politics' A Bad Girl In Harlem after the jump.

MTV Artist To Watch: Jake Bugg

Posted 5/20/13 6:00 am EST by in Celebrity, Live Performances, MTV Featured Artist, Music, Must See, Videos

MTV Artist To Watch: Jake Bugg

Meet MTV's latest Artist To Watch: freewheeling alt-folk wunderkind Jake Bugg.

When The Telegraph calls you "an East Midlands Bob Dylan," you know you're doing something right. I'm referring to, of course, 19-year-old alt-folk singer Jake Bugg (aka Jacob Edwin Kennedy), a very young artist with a distinctly older, wiser sound. While other guys his age are busy emulating the British invasion via '90s boy band throwbacks *coughOneDirectioncough,* Bugg seems more interested in re-energizing vintage genres, and sonically channels everyone from -- yep -- Bob Dylan to The Beatles (albeit LATE Beatles) on his self-titled debut album.

Dear Ellie Goulding: Thank You For Being My Favorite Female At Hangout Fest

Posted 5/19/13 8:00 pm EST by in Celebrity, Music, Must See

ellie goulding hangout fest
Dear Ellie Goulding,

You're probably not reading this because you're probably off writing graduate-level Taylor Swift songs and doing something profoundly British, but I just wanted to tell you that I saw almost every show at Hangout Fest, and you were basically my everything. Also, I don't know if you noticed, but it's kind of a sausage party around here. No shade to Tom Petty or Kings Of Leon or Afrojack or Bassnectar... or you, Trey Anastasio, but to quote the late, great 702, where my girls at? In my humble, unsolicited opinion, there weren't enough ladies on the bill, but Ellie Goulding, your Hangout Fest set, and your Vocoder, and your extremely cool creepers (so underrated) and your warm, wool blanket of a voice that sounds like the holy trinity of twinkling stars, pixie dust, and the gospel put a woman's touch on an otherwise dude-dominated festival. No shade to Macklemore, because his set was the truth, and seeing Tom Petty do "Running Down A Dream" with a drank in my hand, the Alabama breeze blowing through my hair, and, like, 40,000 of my closest new Southern friends was better than that time Demi Lovato drew a peen on live Internet TV. Your set was like church, and I needed "Lights." I needed "I Need Your Love." Not in a weird, complicated way that like Kanye needs Kim, but in a wholly, self-actualized, post-Shania Twain man-I-feel-like-a-woman kind of way. I know you know how that goes.

Anyway, I just wanted to say thank you for that at Hangout Fest. I promise I won't stalk you, but if you see this and there's still time to get fried pickles at Gulf Island Grill or a Bushwacker and seafood tower at The Hangout, I'm only a tweet away.

Thanks again,

Tamar

Meet The Rap Game Ed Sheeran, Discovered At Hangout Fest (VIDEO)

Posted 5/19/13 3:02 pm EST by in Music, Must See, Videos

young mc hangout fest ed sheeran

Meet Matt Webb, an Ed Sheeran dead ringer who dominated a surprise freestyle rap battle before Kendrick Lamar's Hangout Fest set.

Sorry, Action Bronson. There's a new ginger rapper on the come up. You probably hadn't heard of him -- and still haven't -- unless you were one of about 10,000 people under the Boom Boom Tent at the Hangout Festival waiting for Kendrick Lamar's set to start. One of the few drawbacks to having a music festival on the beach is that, well, it takes a little effort to get to paradise, and Kendrick Lamar was running about 30 minutes late to his set due to a travel delay. So Sway, who was introducing Kendrick, took to the stage to keep the masses entertained. And what better way to keep an Alabama hip-hop beach party going than to stage an impromptu rap battle?

Which is where my new favorite ginger comes in. Sway scanned the audience for any potential young MCs in the crowd. A few young hopefuls rose up and spit a few bars and quickly sputtered out. Sorry, kids. No Kanye contracts for you. Until the final MC -- a redheaded Floridian in a black tank top -- stepped up to the mic and, without even a beat to rhyme against, dropped some "8 Mile" knowledge all over the stage in what was, if I may, probably the fifth-best hip-hop performance of 2013 Hangout Fest right behind Kendrick himself, Macklemore, The Roots, and Public Enemy.

Watch the rap game Ed Sheeran win Hangout Fest's spontaneous freestyle rap battle after the jump.
