No Grammy performance for Rihanna
Fans looking forward to a performance by Rihanna at the Grammys on Sunday will be disappointed. The singer confirmed that she will not be performing on the show during an interview on Carson Daly's radio program. Daly asked who he could call to get her into the lineup, and Rihanna responded that she wasn't so sure there was anyone who would take the request. "Um, we messed up the show pretty bad last year, they’re probably a little mad at me right now," she told Daly.

If it weren't for awards season, the public may never have known what "Dexter" star Michael C. Hall was dealing with behind-the-scenes.

'Idol' audition in Dallas not so hot
 testing captions I'm going to call this week on "Idol" "Attack of the Guest Judges." After Katy Perry sparred with Kara DioGuardi on Tuesday night, we were treated to guest judge Neil Patrick Harris giving Simon the business on Wednesday night. Don't get me wrong, I love me some Doogie Howser and I didn't always disagree with him, but the whole him-versus-Simon battle just seemed very much a male version repeat of the Katy/Kara schtick of the night before. Or maybe I was just cranky because I wasn't blown away by the talent in Dallas. FULL POST  |
