Lady Gaga's Wild Tour Rider Details Revealed

(Celebuzz) Lady Gaga may be living "The Edge of Glory" in her songs, but she's lapping up a life of luxury when she's on the road. And all the diva demands and decor are Gaga-approved.

During her arduous two and a half-year Monster Ball Tour, the "Bad Romance" diva requested that her dressing room be decorated in a "glam rock" fashion and furnished with white leather couches, fresh roses and black satin drapes, according to the superstar's rider obtained exclusively by Celebuzz.

The document, which was revealed in court documents during a six-hour deposition Gaga gave in a lawsuit involving her former assistant Jennifer O'Neill – which Celebuz was first to reveal in Aug. 2012, also noted that a "manquin [sic] with puffy pink public [sic] hair" be present in her backstage suite.

"[With] silver statins [sic] draped over the walls," the document noted of her dressing room, adding that "old rock posters from her favorite artists [like] David Bowie, Queen, Elton John and Billy [sic] Holiday," and "fan art that was kept on the road" also be hung around the room.

Other dressing room accoutrements include all the luxuries of home, plus one that has relaxing properties for the on-the-go superstar: 2 large fluffy lavendar [sic] towels; 2 lavendar [sic] hand towels; 2 lavendar [sic] wash cloths, which must be available to the pop star "at all times"; lavendar [sic] handsoap, body wash; face soap; 2 new seafoam luffas; small candle in the bathroom, fresh yellow, lavendar [sic] or white roses; and a steamer.

All of these requests are only a small fraction of Gaga's complex — and costly — tour.

According to emails submitted in the lawsuit from O'Neill, who's suing the singer for over $300,000 in unpaid wages, Gaga had splashed out $5,700 on online high-end retailer Gilt.com, $3,000 for designer luggage and $600 for prescription eyeglasses. A lot more.

Justin Timberlake Plans 20/20 Experience Documentary

Justin Timberlake plans to release a documentary around the making of his new album "The 20/20 Experience."

Fans received their first taste of the film via the lyric video to Timberlake's new song "Suit & Tie," Timberlake revealed on Ryan Seacrest's KIIS FM radio show yesterday.

"Not to give too much away because you know I like surprising the fans, but that little piece of footage is from a documentary we started working on throughout the making of the album, which started last June," he said. "It's more just a little excerpt from that, which I kinda thought about after I put it out."

He also explained the inspiration for the title of the album, "I was playing some of the stuff for my friends and they would come in and out of the studio, and I would say, 'Hey, what do you think of this?' My best friend said, 'This is music that you can see.' For some reason that stuck with me."

The album comes out on March 19th but this weekend Timberlake will be performing at the Grammy awards and had this to say, "I'm still in the process of figuring all of it out," he said. "That was kind of a whirlwind, we got a phone call, got confirmed ... I'm like 'oh wait, I should put something together.' So I'm the process of doing something right now."

Singled Out: Seth Glier

Today Grammy nominated artist Seth Glier tells us about his song "The Stars & Glitter" from his brand new album "Things I Should Let You Know," which is being released today (Feb 5). Here is the story: My song "The Stars & Glitter" was actually inspired by two things.

Musically this song was inspired by a Christmas gift of a harmonium. The harmonium is an Indian/middle eastern instrument that acts as the drowning force in the song. I'm certain that this song wouldn't have turned out the way it did if I wrote it on guitar or piano. The simply nature of not having any chord changes really forced me to write a melody that told the entire story. That Harmonium is so cool!

From a content standpoint, "The Stars & Glitter" was inspired in large part to a conversation I had with Ani DiFranco. Ani said to me that as a songwriter it's imperative to write the songs that "NEED to be sung." I've always just written what I want to write but never looked at my craft in that way before. That one conversation really re-navigated my writing this year. The inspiration to write this particular song came from a walk around Washington D.C. while I was spending a bunch of time there and I finished the song in Ellis Paul's kitchen a few weeks later.

Washington D.C. really confused me because the hardships in the country that I saw on tour where not the hardships being discussed in Washington. It was like walking into a dense haze of myopia. I would travel the country and see hard working families lose their home, jobs, pride and then I'd visit Washington D.C. and see someone pay $80 for a shrimp. It made me react with this song.

Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen for yourself and learn more about the album right here!

Kenny Chesney Raises Pirate Flag and Reveals More Album Details

(Radio.com) Last month, country superstar Kenny Chesney revealed that he's set to release a brand-new album on April 30. This week, he also revealed the title of that album–and unleashed a brand-new single to country radio called "Pirate Flag."

An upbeat anthem about getting away from the worries and stress of everyday life, "Pirate Flag" is the lead single from Kenny's upcoming album–which he has titled Life On A Rock.

"Just living here on this planet, we're all living life on a rock," Kenny says of the title in a statement on his website. "But for me, and for this record, it's about the way life is when you live on an island. Everywhere you go, there's everyone you know; you know everything about them, and they know everything about you… and well, that's just a whole other way to be."

"At the end of the day, what defines life for most people, certainly for me, are the people you share it with," he continues. "When you live in close proximity, you share the highs and lows of every day life and become close in ways you can't even explain."

"When I first went to the islands, I met a lot of people who were making a life beyond anything any of them knew… They took a country singer from East Tennessee into their tribe at a time when having friends outside everything I knew was important. Time passes, life moves on, but those friends lasted, and this album in a lot of ways is about the power of that kind of friendship to endure." more.

Ed Sheeran Having Grammy Nightmares

(Radio.com) "I keep having dreams about the Grammys and they always end up badly," Ed Sheeran confessed.

It's every artist's dream to be nominated for a Grammy and to perform on the Grammy stage but for Ed, it's become a terrifying experience.

"I went to sleep worrying about the Grammys last night," Ed told MIX 106.5/Baltimore. "Like what happens if I win and what happens if I don't? And what happens if my voice cracks when I'm singing? I fell asleep just thinking about it and had this really odd dream."

One of his dreams involved his upcoming performance with Elton John. "I'm doing the duet with Elton at the Grammys and I had this dream where we decided not to play the song we were going to play and we were going to play this other traditional song," he said. "I forgot to give him the piano reference and he just didn't play. Everyone was really confused and I got told off. I hope it isn't a pre-warning to what is actually going to happen!"

We're pretty sure Ed's performance will be seamless as he and Elton John are seasoned performers but he still has his doubts. more on this story

(Radio.com) Although LMFAO duo Sky Blu and Redfoo are both pursuing solo careers, there are no signs of a complete split. But, is it a coincidence that both singles are about bottles or is there a bit of family rivalry going on?

"I'd say it's healthy; me and Foo are always competitive," Sky Blu told 92.3 NOW/New York. "We always play basketball and ping-pong together and we come from a serious, competitive family. Its all good, but the most important thing is for the LMFAO fans to understand that me and Foo, separately and together, are LMFAO. So support us both."

Michael Bolton Tells Captain Jack Sparrow Tale

(Radio.com) Somewhere along the way, Michael Bolton picked up a reputation for being a very serious guy. But after donning a tri-cornered hat and a lot of eyeliner to honor Captain Jack Sparrow in a 2011 SNL skit, he suddenly became the funniest guy in music.

"I wasn't so sure about it at first," Bolton told Radio.com. "But it's so extremely different than what anybody expected of me, except anybody who really knew me.

The romantic crooner was so happy that people finally got a chance to see the real Michael Bolton, he decided to start his memoir, The Soul Of It All, with the tale of how the video for "Jack Sparrow" actually came to be.

Some may wonder why Bolton would start his book with something that happened so recently, but he said that was exactly the reason why he chose to begin that way.

"I think that probably starts with a kind of contemporary relevance," he explained. "What does it mean to people who are already fans of mine? They get a kick out of it because their kids are telling them about it."

The video may only be a little over three minutes long, but it took the guys over eight months to make. Bolton says the original idea for the clip, a filthy take on the Ten Commandments, was just too much for him so "Jack Sparrow" was the perfect middle ground. more on this story

hotels?" Dina, "That was so silly, we got in really later, we got to the hotel and there were so many paparazzi so we opted out. We went to another hotel, the suites were full and then we went, we ended up at the Beverly Hills Hotel."

A delicate subject for Dina is her relationship with Michael. Mario, "Are you and Michael co-parents?" Dina, "I don't really want to speak about that on camera, but I've been a single mom my whole life. I've had sole custody and my other three have had no relationship with him." Dina went on to say, "I'm always hopeful things will get better and slowly, but surely hopefully they are."

Dina is also hoping that Lindsay can clear up her legal problems when she goes to court in March. Another thing Dina would like to do, "Dancing with The Stars." more on this story

Psychic That Predicted Kim Kardashian Pregnancy Predicted Baby's Sex

(Hollyscoop) UK celebrity psychic Jayne Wallace predicts that Kim Kardashian is going to have a boy with Kanye West.

Back in October, Jayne made a few predictions to Hollyscoop and count your constellations, a big, big, pregnant one came true.

"I'm being shown there's a boy, so I'm going to say Kim might get pregnant before she actually gets a ring on that finger," Jayne told us a whole two months before Kanye dropped that baby bump-shell on stage right before New Year's Eve.

Now we're taking her other prediction casually thrown in there a lot more seriously—the gender of the heir to the throne, Lil Kimye.

Another piece of news on the horizon is apparently one we're not even going to see. Jayne predicts that Kim and Kanye won't be putting on a grand spectacle when they decide to get married after the baby is born since the rapper is the man of her dreams and "wants to be more quiet, he wants to sit back, he doesn't want to be surrounded by paparazzi."

"I am seeing a secret wedding and I am seeing a big, big diamond ring and I feel around the month of September of next year they'll fly off to a secret location," Jayne also claims. "I'm seeing marriage." more on this story
