The Big Pink Eye Coldplay-Style Attack On Muse Live

Posted: 22 Sep 2009 08:15 PM PDT

If you haven’t yet experienced Muse live then you are missing out on a truly wondrous experience. It’s amazing to see three guys on stage making that much noise and the crowd making almost as much noise back in appreciation of their efforts.

You may be lucky enough to have secured tickets for Muse’s arena tour in November, in which case you will likely (unless you are one of those people who arrives late) see one of the support acts, The Big Pink. You may not yet have heard of them but they have big ambitions for the tour.

The Big Pink told NME:

“I remember seeing Muse when I was way, way younger and I’m pretty sure Coldplay were supporting and look what happened to them. We have never played somewhere so big in our lives, we are pretty freaked out by it. It’s a long way from playing what we’re used to, but we are psyched and are going to try to out-Muse Muse.”

They want to out-Muse Muse? I really don’t think that’s possible because Muse are a one-off, a unique band with a unique sound. They are also one of the biggest and best live bands in the world, and The Big Pink, well, aren’t. But good luck to them in trying to pull this off.

Lady Gaga Is A Man? Not According To Mika

Posted: 22 Sep 2009 11:51 AM PDT

Rumors flew around the InterWebs last month that Lady Gaga, that freaky lady who is most definitely a little gaga, is either a man or a hermaphrodite (someone born with the genitalia of both sexes).

The speculation started after Gaga herself made a joke about it, and then footage of her performing at the Glastonbury Festival (video embedded below) surfaced which showed a suspect package in her pants.

However, Lady Gaga has denied the claims, and now her close friend Mika has backed her up. He told Heat magazine:

“She doesn’t have a penis. She came to my house in her underwear and I saw no hint of a penis. She thought it was appropriate attire. She can get away with it. She knows what she’s doing. She ain’t no fool. She’s brilliant. I think she’s a good role model for girls. She plays with sex and makes it unsexy on purpose. So outrageous it’s approachable.”

The video does suggest there is something going on down there in Lady Gaga’s lady garden but maybe she’s just an over-endowed female if you know what I mean. Either way, Mika has seen her cavorting around half-naked (maybe I should pretend I’m gay) and confirms she’s all woman. So that’s that cleared up then…
