Beth Ditto justifies her love

In the wake of all this Gaga/Madonna controversy about the fine line between triubte and plagairism, Beth Ditto has released a video that pays a clear homage to one of Madonna's most memorable videos, "Justify My Love".

"I Wrote The Book", the first single off her collaborative EP with Simian Mobile Disco, is shot in black and white and set in a hotel room. While there is no scenes of sexuality, like in "Justify", that doesn't make the video any less sexy.

Beth exudes sass and confidence as she makes herself over in this heartbreak anthem, while dancers around her work their best vogue. 

The EP comes out March 8th, and you know I'll be buying it!

Check out the video!

An artist shows Gaga his teeth... and abs.

Is this a matter of Lady Gaga's continued stranglehold on the collective mind of pop culture enthusiasts and critics?

Or is this a matter of someone with too much time on his hands?

Either way, Adam Razak has created a video for the song "Teeth", using original artwork, animation and 8mm film. The result is something that is visually stunning, both sexy and terrifying.

Not gonna lie, the shot at 2:31 is kinda hot.

When is No Doubt coming back?!?!?

So, Paul McCartney was honoured by the Kennedy Center this year and, in the televised event the other night, No Doubt performed a medley of Beatles hits, complete with matching Beatles suits.

They sounded amazing, they looked happy and Paul definitely approved, as he was singing along. 

This just makes me crave for No Doubt to come back! They reunited 2 years ago, toured 1 year ago and, as far as I can tell from Facebook, they've been recording all of 2010. Come on! Don't keep us waiting any longer!

Remembering Alexander McQueen

Photographer Nick Frost created this beautful tribute video for late fashion designer Alexander McQueen. 

But the best part about this video is that it is accompanied by an exclusive song by Björk! Oh how I love her.

The song starts off as traditional Björk: stream-of-conscious lyrics with an orchestra in discord. But things really get intense halfway through. Haunting, is the only way I can describe it. Her music matches the dark images from Frost perfectly. 

I bet Lady Gaga is pissed she didn't get asked to do this.

I can also hear my sister screaming in terror. Every since Dancer In The Dark, she's been terrified of Björk.
