The Top 12 men have to bring it on 'Idol'
 testing captions The pressure is on Wednesday night for the Top 12 male “Idol” contestants. The ladies were less than spectacular on Tuesday night, which left some fans wondering what happened to all of the girl power that was so prominently on display during Hollywood Week. It’s up to the men to really deliver some incredible performances on Wednesday night. That’s going to mean bringing more energy, better song choices, and - according to the judges on Tuesday night - more originality.

A call to wear black for Johnny Cash
 testing captions Johnny Cash would have been 78 on Friday. The Man in Black died in 2003. To the end, he was a voice of truth and humility, a connector of generations, a legend. (You can still hear that voice: His last album with producer Rick Rubin, the bare-bones "American VI: Ain't No Grave," came out on Tuesday.) In honor of the great man's birthday, the Cash family, Rubin and his American Recordings and Lost Highway Records are asking for a tribute: Wear Black for Cash.

Kelly Osbourne on struggles with weight and drugs
Kelly Osbourne, who checked into rehab for drug and alcohol addiction three times, told US Weekly she had a harder time dealing with her weight. “I took more hell for being fat than I did for being an absolute raging drug addict,” the former “Dancing with the Stars” contestant said. “I will never understand that.” She recalls one painful incident involving a teenager who screamed “You’re fat” to her from a car window. Osbourne, 25, who lost 42 pounds with portion control and exercise, said, “I’m really proud to look in the mirror and not hate every single thing I see.” Osbourne’s diet and workout plan will be featured in US Weekly Friday.

Official Madonna iPhone app totally cool, and totally free
Like a Twitter account, an iPhone app is a celebrity (or faux-celebrity) must-have. Within the past year, there's been a slew of them: Diddy's app lets you know where he likes to eat; rapper Soulja Boy Tell ‘Em's app lets the user remix his songs; T-Pain's gives the gift of Auto-Tune and Britney Spears’s “It’s Britney!” app blurts out an expletive when you shake it. Thrilling stuff, but the Material Girl's new official iPhone app just may top them all. FULL POST |
