<p>A small group of seniors at Cascade High School in Clayton, IN celebrated their upcoming graduation with a prank, covering school doors, offices and windows with more than <a target="_blank" href="http://www.theindychannel.com/news/31074528/detail.html" >12,000 colorful Post-It notes</a>.</p>
<p>But the school superintendent apparently didn&#8217;t think it was so funny &#8212; he suspended almost 60 students, and a janitor accused of helping during the prank could lose her job.</p>
<p><span id="more-45955"></span></p>
<p>Five seniors and one junior were suspended for two days, and superintendent Patrick Spray also recommended the custodian be fired. Dozens of outraged students took to the school gym to stage a sit-in protest &#8212; which resulted in scores of more one-day suspensions.</p>
<p>&#8220;Disrupting the school day and causing a disruption during the school day is not justified,&#8221; Spray said. &#8220;It&#8217;s part of every school&#8217;s code of conduct, and I believe it&#8217;s very consistent.&#8221;</p>
<p>Kim Rouse, the custodian whose job is at risk, said she didn&#8217;t let the students in the building as Spray believes, but is &#8220;overwhelmed with all the kids&#8217; support. That does help me a lot.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_137759" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 320px"><img class="size-full wp-image-137759" title="GagaStuddedKaraoke" src="http://wac.450f.edgecastcdn.net/80450F/popcrush.com/files/2012/05/GagaStuddedKaraoke.jpg" alt="GagaStuddedKaraoke" width="300" height="450" /><p class="wp-caption-text">terrysdiary.com</p></div>
<p><a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/lady-gaga"> Lady Gaga</a> is living it up on the Born This Way Ball tour. The Mother  Monster hit the karaoke bar in Tokyo and fraternized with Japanese little monsters, who gifted her with homemade items.</p>
<p>She wore a black, studded bodysuit that would set off airport metal detectors and cause you to lose an eye if you stumbled towards her, leopard or studded platforms (we can&#8217;t quite tell) and fishnets.</p>
<p>Thankfully, her pal Terry Richardson was there to <a target="_blank" href="http://www.terrysdiary.com/page/3" >capture it all</a> and share it with the global monster legion.</p>
<p>Gaga sang <em>&#8220;I want your leather-studded kiss in the sand&#8221;</em> in &#8216;Bad Romance&#8217; and she certainly wore a heavy duty leather studded outfit while doing karaoke.  She&#8217;s rivaling <a target="_blank" href="http://loudwire.com/tags/judas-priest" >Judas Priest</a> singer Rob Halford for the most studs and leather on a single item of clothing.</p>
<p>Take a peak at the gifts that the little monsters made for her. They are so cute and feature Gaga-centric symbols &#8212; like unicorns, dagger nails, crosses and more. There&#8217;s never been any question that the little monsters are a creative bunch, but their dedication is inspiring. It takes a long time to make crafts such as these.</p>
<p>The Mother Monster may be far, far away but she feel so close to home, thanks all of this photographic evidence.</p>

<p><a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/kesha">Kesha</a> has always had a unique sense of style, but she took it to a dangerous level at the <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/kesha-pitbull-2012-bmi-awards-songwriting-efforts/">BMI Pop Awards</a> &#8212; literally.<span id="more-45798"></span></p>
<p>K Dollar Sign looked stunning in a black and gold flowy dress, gold headband and polished blonde curls (on the unshaved side of her head, that is). Her makeup was equally lovely, with dark eyeliner, shimmery shadow and a deep red lip. The &#8216;Crazy Beautiful Life&#8217; singer looked straight, well, beautiful. But she got there in a risky way.</p>
<p>Kesha <a target="_blank" href="https://twitter.com/#!/keshasuxx/status/202617417971675136/photo/1">tweeted</a> a photo of herself using eyeliner as lipstick, writing, &#8220;Puttin eyeliner on my lips. No big deal y&#8217;all.&#8221; Thing is, it <em>could </em>be a big deal healthwise.</p>
<p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-beauty/news/kesha-uses-eyeliner-pencil-as-lipstick-2012175" >Us Weekly</a> reports that the violet eyeliner Kesha used on her pucker instead of her peepers is pretty dangerous if ingested, according to the product&#8217;s Material Safety Data Sheet. The liner, which appears to be CoverGirl&#8217;s Liquiline Blast Liner in Violet Voltage, can make wearers sick if ingested &#8212; and if you wear lipstick, you&#8217;re bound to ingest some of it (women are estimated to ingest over five pounds per year!). The data says that &#8220;accidental ingestion of undiluted product may cause mild gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.&#8221; Ick!</p>
<p>Be careful, Kesha! That sounds worse than a Jack Daniels hangover.</p>

<p>Fans have been waiting with bated breath for <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/the-dream/">The-Dream</a> to drop the fourth installment of his &#8216;Love&#8217; series, and it looks like it&#8217;s coming real soon. The hitmaker has penciled in Aug. 14 as the release date for his new LP &#8216;Love IV MMXXII.&#8217;<span id="more-45782"></span></p>
<p>For those who may not be familiar with Roman numerals, the &#8216;Love IV MMXII&#8217; stands for &#8220;Love 4 2012.&#8221; Clever, huh?</p>
<p>The collection is the follow-up to his free album &#8217;1977,&#8217; which he released last summer under his government name, Terius Nash. &#8216;Love IV&#8217; will feature guest appearances from <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/mary-j-blige/">Mary J. Blige</a> and Gucci Mane, according to <a target="_blank" href="http://idolator.com/6483332/the-dream-love-iv-mmxii-release-date" >Idolator</a>. He already released the LP&#8217;s teaser single &#8216;<a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/the-dream-abstract-video-kill-the-lights/">Kill the Lights</a>,&#8217; which features his R&amp;B protege Casha.</p>
<p>The-Dream made a formal announcement on Wednesday (May 16) via his Twitter page that &#8216;Love&#8217; is in the air.</p>
<p>&#8220;LOVE IV is the BEST Album I&#8217;ve made. I don&#8217;t care what the sales will be,&#8221; he <a target="_blank" href="https://twitter.com/#!/MrTeriusNash/status/202889876595671042" >tweeted</a> to his fans. &#8220;I will do my best to Challenge your Taste And Knowledge.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I will Leave no Holes in this Album Period, no room to be Hated only Adored or simply just say &#8216;you don&#8217;t f&#8212; with me,&#8217; he <a target="_blank" href="https://twitter.com/#!/MrTeriusNash/status/202890126974660609" >continued</a>. &#8220;But what U won&#8217;t Say is Dream Album is Mediocre or Sucks. I will Never Be your Star I&#8217;m [too] G and [too] Westside for that.&#8221;</p>
<p>He then finished his Twitter <a target="_blank" href="https://twitter.com/#!/MrTeriusNash/status/202891009426857984" >rant</a> with, &#8220;I will never Sellout Arenas because since &#8216;Love Hate&#8217; I didn&#8217;t Sellout! And no matter how much you hate me you got to Respect that!&#8221;</p>
<p>We&#8217;ll have to wait and see if The-Dream will get some R-E-S-P-E-C-T come August.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_137480" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 645px"><img class="size-full wp-image-137480" title="Graffiti6" src="http://wac.450f.edgecastcdn.net/80450F/popcrush.com/files/2012/05/Graffiti6.jpg" alt="Graffiti6" width="625" height="417" /><p class="wp-caption-text">YouTube</p></div>
<p>While <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/graffiti6/">Graffiti6</a>&#8216;s last video &#8216;<a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/graffiti6-free-video/">Free</a>&#8216; was about thoughtful contemplation, the London duo&#8217;s latest offering, &#8216;Stare Into the Sun,&#8217; uses trippy imagery and video effects to create some eye-popping visuals that you&#8217;ll probably want to watch more than once.<span id="more-45784"></span></p>
<p>&#8220;<em>This is the summer full of color, baby</em>,&#8221; Jamie Scott sings, stating the obvious as aqua hearts and purple streaks of light flash behind him. Scott drives a date down a psychedelic highway, plays piano in an interstellar orange and blue landscape, and gets a pair of cartoon wings as he plays guitar.</p>
<p>Bright-colored shapes swirl into oblivion and scenes vanish into a neverending tunnel like an inverse version of the <a target="_blank" href="http://diffuser.fm/tags/white-stripes/" >White Stripes</a>&#8216; &#8216;Seven Nation Army&#8217; video combined with a bit of Austin Powers influence. Near the end, the background turns from black to white as Scott finally finds the sun.</p>
<p>Also, if you were digging Scott&#8217;s attire in the video, you&#8217;re in luck. His t-shirt (as well as posters featuring the same artwork) are available on the <a target="_blank" href="http://merchdirect.com/graffiti6" >band’s website</a> and on their tour.</p>
<p>&#8216;Stare Into the Sun&#8217; had an official video back in 2010, but the new clip, directed by Jimi Crayon, was filmed after the duo&#8217;s &#8216;Colours&#8217; album was re-released on Capitol Records. Graffiti6, comprised of Jamie Scott and Tommy Danvers, recently <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/graffiti6-perform-free-conan/">appeared on &#8216;Conan&#8217;</a> to promote the album and will perform on &#8216;Jimmy Kimmel Live!&#8217; on May 24. They begin their first headlining tour on May 29. Be sure to pick up their album over on <a target="_blank" href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/colours/id494668674" >iTunes</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_137728" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 645px"><img class="size-full wp-image-137728" title="RussellBrandEllen" src="http://wac.450f.edgecastcdn.net/80450F/popcrush.com/files/2012/05/RussellBrandEllen.jpg" alt="RussellBrandEllen" width="625" height="417" /><p class="wp-caption-text">YouTube</p></div>
<p>Russell Brand appeared on &#8216;The Ellen DeGeneres Show&#8217; today (May 17) in a pre-taped segment where he revealed that he still loves his soon-to-be-ex-wife <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/katy-perry">Katy Perry</a>, with whom he split in December of last year. He offered several positive sentiments about the &#8216;Part of Me&#8217; singer and then hung out with Ellen&#8217;s favorite mini correspondents, Sophia Grace and Rosie.<span id="more-45774"></span></p>
<p>Brand did not skirt the Perry issue, saying, “I love her as a human being, but sometimes when you’re in a relationship I suppose it doesn’t work out, does it?  But that doesn’t mean I regret it or anything … I was very happy to be married to her, she’s such a beautiful human being, and I only have love and positivity for her.”</p>
<p>Aw, that&#8217;s so heartbreaking. It truly is an amicable split for these two, even though they&#8217;ve unfollowed one another on Twitter. &#8220;You can&#8217;t make everything how you want it to be in life,&#8221; Brand also said. How eloquent and true.</p>
<p>The mood lifted when he was flanked by his fellow Brits, those precocious, tiara-wearing, pink-clad princesses Sophia Grace and Rosie. We hope they are homeschooled, because they sure seem to be spending a lot of time outside of the classroom. Yeah, we know, they&#8217;re picking up an education at the school of life and are rubbing elbows with celebs, but still! We&#8217;re sure they&#8217;ve got responsible parents.</p>
<p>Brand called them &#8220;my little Essex friends,&#8221; commenting that &#8220;we&#8217;ve all escaped. Back in Essex, these children would be forced to clean chimneys.&#8221; He also said that he and Rosie would have to team up to keep SG in line, since she&#8217;s a little firecracker.</p>
<p>The comedian then asked SG to express everything she ever thought, to which she shouts &#8220;PINK!&#8221; Either she works for Victoria&#8217;s Secret&#8217;s diffusion line, has been brainwashed by <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/nicki-minaj">Nicki Minaj</a> or has had a wee bit of training about how to suck people into her vortex of cuteness.</p>
<p>Can we just say we love how Rosie is the quiet one? She&#8217;s like Teller of Penn &amp; Teller.</p>

<p>As acts that seemingly came out of nowhere to score the year&#8217;s two biggest hits so far, <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/fun/">fun.</a> and <a target="_blank" href="http://diffuser.fm/tags/gotye/" >Gotye</a> have a lot in common. The guys of fun. have paid tribute to their fellow chart-topper with a cover of &#8216;Somebody That I Used to Know&#8217; featuring <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/hayley-williams/">Hayley Williams</a> of <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/paramore/">Paramore</a>.<span id="more-45776"></span></p>
<p>The song was recorded for fun.&#8217;s appearance in the <a target="_blank" href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p00smknq" >BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge</a>. Though it sounds like the singers were in the same studio, the network reports that fun. were near London, while Williams sang her part from back in Los Angeles.</p>
<p>The fun. cover keeps it simple with a piano intro and acoustic guitar instrumentation throughout. Gotye called <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/gotye-glee-criticism/">the &#8216;Glee&#8217; cover</a> of &#8216;Somebody That I Used to Know&#8217; &#8220;dinky&#8221; and &#8220;wrong,&#8221; so we&#8217;re curious to hear what he thinks of the fun. and Williams version of his song. To our ears, it sounds a bit less emotional than the original, probably because of the polished vocals of fun. singer Nate Ruess.</p>
<p>Gotye&#8217;s original recording with Kimbra has now spent five weeks at No. 1 in the U.S., one week short of the six-week run of fun.&#8217;s &#8216;We Are Young.&#8217;</p>

<p><a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/lil-niqo">Lil Niqo</a>, an impressive young &#8212; and we do mean <em>young</em> &#8212; MC just dropped his &#8216;Television Love&#8217; video. Unless you happen to pass by a koala holding a basket of kittens, it&#8217;s the absolute cutest thing you&#8217;ll see all day.<span id="more-45762"></span></p>
<p>Lil Niqo premiered the cute clip on &#8217;106th and Park.&#8217; In the video, it&#8217;s love at first sight with Niqo and a lovely lil&#8217; lady walking home from school. He sweet talks her into being his &#8220;Television Love&#8221;: &#8220;<em>I can be your Martin / You can be my GinaI can be your <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/justin-bieber">Justin</a> / You can be <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/selena-gomez">Selena</a>!</em>&#8221; Seriously, does it get any more precious?</p>
<p>Yes. It does. Lil Niqo tells his equally smitten galpal that she can be the Amber Rose to his <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/wiz-khalifa">Wiz Khalifa</a>, the <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/alicia-keys">Alicia Keys</a> to his <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/swizz-beatz">Swizz Beatz</a> and the <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/beyonce">Beyonce</a> to his <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/jay-z">Jay-Z</a> &#8212; and the pair actually dress up as each A-list hip-hop couple. Lil Niqo and his girl capture Bey and Jay particularly well, right down to their mannerisms &#8212; the girl perfects Beyonce&#8217;s &#8216;Single Ladies&#8217; hand motions as Niqo expertly mimics Jigga&#8217;s gesticulations.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s all sunshine and chain-sharing &#8230; that is, until a certain someone else shows up. See what happens to young love in the video below. It&#8217;s so sweet you might get a toothache!

<p>Sounds like <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/rihanna">Rihanna</a> has a new &#8220;rude boy&#8221; in her life. Rumors are spreading like wildfire that the &#8216;Where Have You Been&#8217; singer has been getting hot and heavy with New York Knicks player JR Smith.<span id="more-45749"></span></p>
<p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.theboombox.com/2012/05/17/rihanna-jr-smith-hookup/" >The Boombox</a> reports that RiRi has been engaging in quite a bit of PDA with the Knicks&#8217; bad boy. A spy told InTouch that the pair hung out at New York City&#8217;s Veranda nightclub and dished, &#8220;They were very flirty in the club all night and holding hands. She was sitting on his lap and was really into him.&#8221; Ow ow!</p>
<p>Smith is one of the most controversial players on the New York team and is frequently in trouble &#8212; which seems to be just Rihanna&#8217;s type, however unfortunate that may be. Smith, who has two kids, plead guilty to a reckless driving charge in 2009 (the same year Rihanna was dealt blows from her bad boy ex, <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/chris-brown">Chris Brown</a>), earning himself a month in jail, 500 days of community service and a seven-game suspension from the NBA. Further adding to his dangerous appeal? Smith was fined $25,000 for tweeting a photo of a thong-clad model in his bed &#8212; and later shut down his old Twitter account after rumors spread that he wrote in the same style as the Los Angeles-based Bloods gang. Sounds like a winner to us!</p>
<p>We bet mentor and Brooklyn Nets co-owner <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/jay-z">Jay-Z</a> won&#8217;t be too pleased about RiRi&#8217;s new romance &#8212; though he&#8217;s probably just relieved that she&#8217;s not with Breezy!</p>

<p>Rapper <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/50-cent/">50 Cent</a> is on the mend after he was hospitalized with a stomach virus. Fiddy checked into a hospital on Wednesday (May 16) for treatment but seemed to be in good spirits. After he admitted himself, the &#8216;Wait Until Tonight&#8217; rapper tweeted a photo of himself flanked by stuffed animals in a hospital bed.<span id="more-45753"></span></p>
<p>The picture featured 50 with a cute stuffed giraffe to his right, a large stuffed lion on his left and a stuffed elephant in between his legs. The photo was accompanied by a <a target="_blank" href="http://twitter.com/#!/50cent/status/202889979469369344" >tweet</a>, “Do not do a @djdrama gangsta grillz this is all I get. Ain’t this a b&#8212;-. I give 15 tracks you give me this.”</p>
<p>DJ Drama would later confirmed to <a target="_blank" href="http://www.xxlmag.com/news/2012/05/50-cent-in-hospital-with-stomach-virus/" >XXLMag</a> that &#8216;Fif had to undergo surgery for a &#8220;stomach virus&#8221; and he would be fine. &#8220;First they wanted to keep it quiet, but he’s not a quiet guy,&#8221; he said. “He should be cool. It’s nothing that serious.&#8221;</p>
<p>50 Cent and Drama are currently promoting their collaborative mixtape &#8216;The Lost Tape Gangsta Grillz,&#8217; which is due out on May 22.</p>
<p>On Thursday (May 17), 50 posted another <a target="_blank" href="http://twitter.com/#!/50cent/status/203126181447479296" >photo</a> looking like his old self sans the stuffed animals. &#8220;I&#8217;m feeling better today I think I&#8217;m gonna get out of the hospital soon. <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/eminem/">EMINEM</a> called me last night I love him that&#8217;s my boy,&#8221; he <a target="_blank" href="http://m.tmi.me/q7o2w" >wrote</a> to his followers.</p>
<p>We are glad that 50 Cent is feeling better and ready to get back on his daily grind of feeding the fans that pure and uncut street-hop music.</p>

<p><a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/owl-city/">Owl City</a> &#8212; the musical brainchild of lone member Adam Young &#8212; hasn&#8217;t released a new single since Oct. 2011. So, fans will be happy to hear that not only is he prepping a new album, but he&#8217;s already dropped the lead single, &#8216;Shooting Star.&#8217; And guess what? We&#8217;ve got an exclusive look at the &#8216;Shooting Star&#8217; lyric video for your viewing/listening pleasure.<span id="more-45733"></span></p>
<p>Opening with a loop of dreamy, high and low digital blips, the intro of &#8216;Shooting Star&#8217; has a sound reminiscent of the Postal Service&#8217;s hit &#8216;Such Great Heights.&#8217; Adam Young&#8217;s soft, breathy vocals kick in (which also sound a bit Ben Gibbard-esque but with more pop appeal) during the verses, but grows in strength and power as the chorus of &#8216;Shooting Star&#8217; rolls around.</p>
<p>Like the song itself, the &#8216;Shooting Star&#8217; lyric video has an ethereal, spacey quality. The video includes a montage of twinkling stars, swirling beams of light, bright nebulas, and atmospheric clouds. In quick flashes, Young reveals the lyrics to the loving song:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;<em>When the sun goes down, and the lights burn out /  Then it&#8217;s time for you to shine / Brighter than the shooting star / So shine no matter where you are / Fill the darkest night, with a brilliant light / Cause it&#8217;s time for you to shine / Brighter than a shooting star / So shine no matter where you are, tonight</em>.&#8221;</p>
</blockquote>

<p>There are hundreds of <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/beastie-boys/">Beastie Boys</a> tributes on the Internet, including our favorite &#8216;<a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/kids-reenact-beastie-boys-sabotage-video/">Sabotage</a>&#8216; clip by some adorable kids. But a cool video recently surfaced of a rare unaired performance from the trio.<span id="more-45739"></span></p>
<p><a target="_blank" href="http://ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com/69007274.html" >Oh No They Didn&#8217;t</a> posted a video of the Beastie Boys performing &#8216;The New Style&#8217; on &#8216;Chappelle&#8217;s Show.&#8217; Originally, the show&#8217;s co-creator Neal Brennan posted it on his YouTube but was taken down by Viacom due to copyright issues. According to Brennan, the performance was slated for the third season of &#8216;Chappelle&#8217;s Show&#8217; but never aired after Dave Chappelle abruptly quit the show.</p>
<p>In the grainy video, the Beasties are performing &#8216;The New Style&#8217; outside in the dead of winter. WTF? Dressed in heavy coats, the trio performed their sample-heavy track next to the Brooklyn Bridge and the Statue of Liberty. Although it was cold outside, the Beasties were heating the mics up with their back-and-forth wordplays. Props to Mixmaster Mike for his superior turntable skills and switching up the beat near the end of the song.</p>
<p>Overall, the Beastie Boys showed how much they love hip-hop and the city of New Yawk. It&#8217;s a wonderful tribute to their late member Adam &#8216;MCA&#8217; Yauch.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_137451" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 320px"><img class="size-full wp-image-137451" title="PinkCosmo" src="http://wac.450f.edgecastcdn.net/80450F/popcrush.com/files/2012/05/PinkCosmo.jpg" alt="PinkCosmo" width="300" height="410" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Cosmo</p></div>
<p><a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/pink">Pink</a> graces the <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/pink-dons-red-on-cosmo-cover/">June 2012 cover</a> of Cosmo, looking slim and trim in a red bandage dress. Less than a year after giving birth to daughter Willow Sage, new mom Pink has dropped the baby weight and looks banging. She was candid about how her life has changed since welcoming Willow into the world.<span id="more-45741"></span></p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m used to going into the studio and smoking and drinking until three in the morning,&#8221; the singer confessed to the <a target="_blank" href="http://www.cosmopolitan.com/" >mag</a>. &#8220;But I can’t drink as much because I’m breastfeeding. See this glass of wine? Before, I’d have, like, four of them. Now, one is good. Oh, and I quit smoking… I’ve exorcised a lot of my demons, but I’m still working on myself. I think I’ll be a work in progress for the rest of my life.”</p>
<p>Aren&#8217;t we all, Pink?</p>
<p>The singer also shared that Willow sleeps in bed with her mom and dad, so she and hubby Carey Hart have to &#8220;schedule&#8221; alone time! “We’ve never had a problem with affection. But with a baby? It’s kinda gross, but you have to schedule it,&#8221; she said.</p>
<p>The parents are thinking of rearranging Willow&#8217;s sleeping accomodations at some point. &#8220;We’re just starting to think about putting her somewhere else, at least for a little while,&#8221; the songstress said. &#8220;Either that, or we’ll have to resort to getting it on in the laundry room.”</p>
<p>Speaking of sexy, the singer was not shy about saying she did not feel beautiful with a bulging belly. She gained 55 pounds during the gestation period, joking &#8220;my baby may be part cheesecake.&#8221; She didn&#8217;t feel pretty, at all. &#8220;I thought I’d feel like a goddess. They sell you on that… like you’ll never feel more feminine. Really, I just felt like a mess,&#8221; Pink said.</p>
<p>Feeling like a mess at the time or not, she looks uh-mazing right now.</p>

<p>Those of you anxiously awaiting a video for the <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/taylor-swift">Taylor Swift</a> track &#8216;Eyes Open&#8217; will be somewhat happy today. The country cutie dropped an as-expected adorable lyric video for her &#8216;Hunger Games&#8217;-inspired song.<span id="more-45675"></span></p>
<p>The clip features handwritten and drawn lyrics in stop-motion animation. Some of the images are literal, while others are just cute doodles and middle school-style notebook scrawls on white paper, lined pads and Post-Its. Amidst the dancing crumpled paper and colored pencils, a few of the sketches and writings contain subtle odes to &#8216;The Hunger Games,&#8217; including some cartoon-flame engulfed lettering, a nod to &#8216;Girl on Fire.&#8217;</p>
<p>Swift, ever generous, also dropped something else recently &#8212; a cool $4 million to Nashville&#8217;s Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in support of music education. It&#8217;s the second biggest donation in the museum&#8217;s history! Swift&#8217;s donation will help pay for the Taylor Swift Education Center. <a target="_blank" href="http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1685294/taylor-swift-donates-music-education.jhtml" >MTV</a> reports that Swift&#8217;s eponymous center will be an exhibit and classroom space.</p>
<p>So what will go down in that classroom? Museum director Kyle Young explained, &#8220;In terms of what it will allow us to do, we do education very well now. It will allow us to do what we do better, serve more people, develop new programs, and I&#8217;m happy to say that as we talked through this opportunity with Taylor, she very much wants to be involved in an advisory capacity in what we do,&#8221; he explained. &#8220;Is there a better person out there who&#8217;s in touch with a young audience? I think not.&#8221; We concur!</p>
<p>Swift&#8217;s connection with the Hall of Fame goes way back. She signed her first recording contract within its walls and gave one of her very first public performances on its plaza. Young gushed, &#8220;For Taylor to want to engage herself in the life of this place in such  an appropriate way &#8212; every way you slice it and dice  it, it&#8217;s great.&#8221;</p>
<p>This is just the most recent in some of Swift&#8217;s <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/taylor-swift-2012-kids-choice-awards-michelle-obama-big-help-award/">highly publicized charity work</a>. The only thing bigger than Swift&#8217;s bank account may be her heart!</p>

<p>A new poster from the <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/katy-perry">Katy Perry</a> biopic &#8216;Katy Perry: Part of Me&#8217; has been revealed. The simple images shares a lot about the films rags-to-riches, dream-to-reality story.<span id="more-45677"></span></p>
<p>A teenage (dream) Perry is in her girlish bedroom, singing into a hairbrush in front of the mirror like most youngins with rock star aspirations often do behind closed doors. She&#8217;s wearing a typical teen uniform of a cute mini-skirt and and thigh-high socks, with a record player at her feet. As for the image reflected in the mirror? It&#8217;s the blue-haired, strawberry dress-wearing diva, performing before her adoring crowd.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s Katy, then and now.</p>
<p>&#8216;Katy Perry: Part of Me&#8217; is a 3D spectacle, reportedly sans all footage of estranged (and soon to be ex) hubby Russell Brand. It hits theaters on July 5 when most of you will be BBQing and swilling beer or lemonade (if you are under 21) in celebration of the country&#8217;s independence.</p>
<p>Still, you can inject a little candy-coated color and sugary sweetness into your life by seeing the movie. It&#8217;s an intimate look at Katy Hudson becoming Katy Perry, the pop starlet you love to love.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_137574" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 645px"><img class="size-full wp-image-137574" title="Adam-Yauch" src="http://wac.450f.edgecastcdn.net/80450F/popcrush.com/files/2012/05/Adam-Yauch1.jpg" alt="Adam Yauch" width="625" height="417" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Jason Merritt, Getty Images</p></div>
<p>The New York State Senate passed a resolution this week to honor the work of the <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/beastie-boys">Beastie Boys</a>&#8216; Adam &#8216;MCA&#8217; Yauch, who died earlier this month from cancer of the parotid gland. <a target="_blank" href="http://www.spin.com/articles/adam-mca-yauch-honored-ny-state-senate-resolution" >Spin</a> reports that State Senator Daniel Squadron wrote resolution J4637-2011 to remember the late rapper. The resolution was accepted by the legislative body on Tuesday, May 15,  just days before &#8220;MCA Day&#8221; takes over Union Square Park.<span id="more-45679"></span></p>
<p>The resolution read in part:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;The music and message of the Beastie Boys evolved over the years, but they can&#8217;t, they don&#8217;t, they won&#8217;t stop changing the face of hip-hop, of music, and of our culture&#8230; The Beastie Boys exemplified New York through a period in which grassroots creativity and a community of iconoclastic artists helped redefine and rejuvenate a city on the ropes, with iconic imagery from Brooklyn to Ludlow Street&#8230; now, therefore, be it resolved, that this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to mourn the death of famed rapper and activist Adam &#8220;MCA&#8221; Yauch.&#8221;</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Yauch grew up in Brooklyn Heights and helped the Beasties become the first hip-hop act ever to score a No. 1 album. The resolution highlights Yauch&#8217;s fight against human rights abuses in Tibet and mentions Yauch&#8217;s wife, Dechen Wengdu, and their daughter, Losel.</p>
<p>The honor comes in advance of an effort to remember Yauch with <a target="_blank" href="https://www.facebook.com/MCADAYNYC" >MCA Day</a>, a fan-created event in New York City&#8217;s Union Square set to take place on Saturday, May 19, at 11AM EST. Admirers of the rapper are encouraged to bring photos and share stories about his influence.</p>

<p>The undisputed queen of disco <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/donna-summer-dead-63/" _mce_href="http://popcrush.com/donna-summer-dead-63/">passed away</a> today at 63, and the pop world was quick to mourn through &#8212; what else? &#8212; Twitter. Stars who <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/donna-summer/" _mce_href="http://popcrush.com/tags/donna-summer/">Donna Summer</a> clearly influenced, like <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/rihanna/" _mce_href="http://popcrush.com/tags/rihanna/">Rihanna</a>, <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/robyn/" _mce_href="http://popcrush.com/tags/robyn/">Robyn</a> and <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/nicki-minaj/" _mce_href="http://popcrush.com/tags/nicki-minaj/">Nicki Minaj</a> were fast to respond. One pattern we noticed? Other than <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/adam-lambert/" _mce_href="http://popcrush.com/tags/adam-lambert/">Adam Lambert</a> and <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/timbaland/" _mce_href="http://popcrush.com/tags/timbaland/">Timbaland</a>, almost all of Summer&#39;s first public social media mourners were women! Rest in peace, Donna Summer.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_123254" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 650px"><img class="size-full wp-image-123254" title="Bonner cut" src="http://wac.450f.edgecastcdn.net/80450F/thefw.com/files/2012/05/Booner-cut.jpg" alt="Bonner cut" width="630" height="420" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Twitter</p></div>
<p>There aren&#8217;t a lot of red-haired players in the NBA. That&#8217;s one of the reasons Patrick Gonzalez, who has red hair, is a fan of Matt Bonner, a ginger-headed back-up center for his hometown San Antonio Spurs.</p>
<p>So to pay homage to the sharp-shooting bigman, Gonzalez had a rather accurate image of his favorite player shaved into the back of his head.<span id="more-45653"></span></p>
<p>Since hair is apparently a touchy subject at Woodlake Hills Middle School, his mom Rose Gonzalez actually went to the school to clear the Bonner-cut with the administration before Patrick showed up for class.</p>
<p>But despite this meeting, Patrick was told that he would have to get rid of his unique hair style or face suspension. <a target="_blank" href="http://www.foxsanantonio.com/newsroom/top_stories/videos/vid_10320.shtml?wap=0&amp;utm_source=twitterfeed&amp;utm_medium=twitter" >According to school official Aubrey Chancellor</a>, Rose Gonzalez may have met with the front office about her son&#8217;s hair, but permission was never actually granted.</p>
<p>So now it looks like Patrick will have to get rid of his tribute, which has been deemed a &#8220;distraction.&#8221; He says that he is &#8220;mad,&#8221; but will comply with the decision.</p>
<p>If anything good were to come out of this misunderstanding, it would be that it might draw more attention to Bonner, who last year posted a couple pretty clever parodies of basketball instructional videos on YouTube. Check them out below.</p>

<p>Want a piece of <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/justin-bieber">Justin Bieber</a>, literally? Like on a cellular level? You can.<span id="more-45627"></span></p>
<p>A <a target="_blank" href="http://celebritygene.com/" >Canadian website</a> is selling a pendant that contains the DNA of its country&#8217;s national treasure, according to <a target="_blank" href="http://blogs.canada.com/2012/05/16/justin-biebers-dna-wanna-buy-some/" >Canada.com</a>.</p>
<p>The head scientist at the company is Ryan Lehto – and we use that term &#8220;scientist&#8221; loosely. He claims that his employer &#8220;obtained his hair DNA due to popular demand and because we like that he is Canadian and how he went from YouTube to an international superstar!” How intellectual of the &#8220;scientist&#8221; to reveal that The Biebs&#8217; nationality determined their decision to sell his DNA.</p>
<p>So did they yank a strand from The Biebs&#8217; head while he was trapped in a crowd of fans? Did they break into his house and swipe strands from his hair brush? Did they get it on the black market, if there is such a thing for Bieber contraband and genetic material? Did they get it from Mariah Yeater, the woman who claimed that The Biebs fathered her son? See where we are going with this&#8230;</p>
<p>The pendants, which make us think of the time when Angelina Jolie and her then-hubby carried vials of each other&#8217;s blood around their necks while apart, comes with a $120 price tag, a silver box chain and a certificate of authenticity.</p>
<p>PopCrush readers, would you wear a pendant containing Bieber DNA?</p>

<p>Did someone crank the thermostat? No, they didn&#8217;t. It&#8217;s just that looking at images of <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/tags/jennifer-lopez">Jennifer Lopez</a> in an assortment of swimsuits from her spread in the June issue of <a target="_blank" href="http://www.vogue.com/magazine/article/jennifer-lopez-body-heat/#1" >Vogue</a> had us breaking a sweat and feeling feverish. J. Lo is looking fiiiiine in these bikinis and one-pieces. You could bounce quarters off those abs.<span id="more-45591"></span></p>
<p>The <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/jennifer-lopez-tops-forbes-celebrity-100-list/">Forbes Celebrity 100 list topper</a> and &#8216;<a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/category/american-idol/">American Idol</a>&#8216; judge was shot by famed photog Mario Testino, and she&#8217;s glistening and gorgeous. At 42, J. Lo puts divas half her age to shame with THAT figure. No wonder her boyfriend, dancer Casper Smart, 25, is enraptured by her.</p>
<p>J. Lo is catching rays in a black, criss-crossed suit, one we would not recommend for tanning. Imagine the tan lines! Same can be said for the red one-piece.</p>
<p>The maroon suit is dangerously low cut and oh-so-sexy. She could wear it while making sandcastles with Max and Emme without sacrificing her innate hotness or looking inappropriate. The one-strap white suit is the most mom-friendly <em>and</em> fashion-forward, which might seem mutually exclusive, but J. Lo makes it work.</p>
<p>The gold bikini makes us jealous. Really. J Lo, can we have your bod?</p>
<p>Lopez&#8217;s most famous asset, her round bootay, is NOT prominently featured in this spread. But she more than makes up for it with the abs.</p>
<p>The issue lands May 22. La Lopez was the <a target="_blank" href="http://popcrush.com/jennifer-lopez-april-vogue-cover/">April cover girl</a> but the fashion bible can&#8217;t get enough of her or that hard body.</p>
