By News Desk

Pussycat Dolls Have Own Love Guru

So what do the Pussycat Dolls do when they're in a state of depression? They visit their very own "love guru!"

The Dolls revealed that they visit a South Indian spiritualist when their hectic lives take a toll on them. The guru then hugs every one of them until they feel better. They also added that they believe in past lives and that they are all spiritually bound together.

We're thinking plenty of guys out there are wishing they're the Pussycat Dolls' "love guru" too.


Jordin Sparks Has No Regrets Over VMA Remarks

Russell Brand's recent jibe on purity rings at the Video Music Awards drew flak from Jordin Sparks, who said that not everyone wants to be a tramp, or to be precise, the "S" word.

Get the lowdown on that here.


R.E.M Guitar Stolen

Michael Stipes and his band are desperate to recover a stolen valuable item. Their own guitar!

The guitar, a black Rickenbacker 360, owned by R.E.M guitarist Peter Buck, was stolen from a gig in Finland recently. The guitar has been used by Buck since the band's debut album, Chronic Town, in 1982.

The band is offering a generous reward for the recovery of the stolen guitar.


Leona Lewis Suffers Stage Fright

Despite the fact that Leona Lewis graced the stage for the Olympics and the MTV Video Music Awards, she still suffers from a bit of stage fright!

Leona Lewis kept her nerves cool while performing at the VMAs, but panicked when she had to sing at the after-party right in front of her idol, Christina Aguilera. Christina had requested to sit at the front row to take a closer look at Leona after watching her earlier.

Maybe Christina is a fan of Leona as well!


Korn Takes A Break

After 15 years and 8 studio albums, Korn's Jonathan Davis finally feels that it's time to take a break.

Korn recently revealed during the MTV Video Music Awards that the band needs to chill out for a while. Jonathan Davis said he will still be writing and playing music, and when the band's ready, they will get back together and do it again.

Korn's last album, Untitled, was released in 2007.


VMAs' Big Winner

Britney Spears not only opened the MTV Video Music Awards recently but also won, big time.

Even though there were many performances by some of the biggest stars at the VMAs, Britney stole the spotlight by snagging not one, not two, but three moonmen, including the highly-coveted Video Of The Year award.

Look out, ya'll! Britney may have really come back this time.
