Just Because...Free The Nipple

Set Them Free
Demi Lovato
Just Because it's daring, just because she has vocal chops & just because she's Demi Lovato, feast your eyes on her wearing a uh, rather revealing sequin & lace ensemble.

Yes, peeps in the tradition of the Free The Nipple campaign, Ms. Lovato let hers out at the MTV Video Music Awards last night.

Her accessories? Not that I believe anyone cares but she wore lots of diamonds, hoop earrings and most importantly a sultry stare.

Demi has always been fearless in life and her choices, on the red carpet is no exception for this young woman.

Here's looking at you Lovato.

Spears Slays

It's Britney Bitch!
Britney Spears
While scanning MTV Video Music Awards coverage, which seems like an oxymoron at this point, online as I didn't watch them last night since I was otherwise engaged. I came a cross this amazing looking woman in the most perfect dress that werked for her image and her figure...One Ms. Britney Spears! That's right, It's Britney Bitch!

Now let me make it crystal that I am not a Britney fan, nor have I ever been. That being stated I have nothing against her either. For a woman who has gone through the ringer, who could forget Britney The Dark Ages, and back, I have to give her and her family credit for reclaiming her life and then some.

Mental illness and depression are a tough go, some people are lucky like Ms. Spears and manage to overcome them and or get it under control. Others are not as fortunate. 

Cheers to you Britney you looking happy and healthy may you to continue to live long and prosper

PS Asymmetrical dresses do your body good!

Anything Goes: The VMA's

Get Your Tongue Off My VMA Miley Cyrus!
"Fasten your seatbelts, it's going to be a bumpy night!" - Bette Davis as Margo Channing in All About Eve

That's right MTV's Video Music Awards are on tonight with Our Lady of Cyrus, Miley hosting. So that means anything can happen when she hits the stage and as you know, anything will!

Executive producers have been proactive and prepared a delay for her and lots of wide shots for audience reactions. Way to work those ratings people!

With live performances by Nicki Minaj, Macklemore, Pharrell Williams, Tori Kelly and many more planned it is a music lovers buffet.

Aside from the hostess with the mostess, or is it host with the most, sorry Miley I know you have stated you feel more like a guy than a girl in the past...the other wild card of the evening will be the coming of Yeezus!

That's correct, Kanye West will be accepting the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award, prepare thyself. 

Here's hoping Taylor Swift makes an appearance during that moment and there's no Bad Blood!

Tune in or be square to the MTV Video Music Awards tonight at 9/8c on MTV, duh!

Capital Cities: "Kangaroo Court" Is Now In Session



Hi, I'm An Oppressed Zebra
Capital Cities is on the move...! Hot off the heels for their MTV VMA Win, their “Safe and Sound” music video was honored with their first MTV VMA award for “Best Visual Effects,” where they bested out such fellow nominees as Duck Sauce, Flying Lotus, Skrillex (featuring The Doors), as well as The Weeknd.

Well, they have gone and have gotten all George Orwell "Animal Farm" on your ass, with their latest from their CD "In A Tidal Wave Of Mystery".

That's right, it's time to hop right into the "Kangaroo Court" where you will be judged in a quite Orwellian fashion.

Zebra's need not apply - they are prejudged and that's just the way it is. You know the whole horse of a different color thing.

Capital Cities has another VMA winner on it's hands, keep on moving guys!

Hop into "Kangaroo Court" after the jump!

Capital Cities: MTV VMA'S, A Gold Single & More...Oh My!



AFTER TOPPING THE MODERN ROCK CHART, GOLD SINGLE
“SAFE AND SOUND” IS A HIT AT TOP 40, TRIPLE A AND HOT AC AND ENTERS TOP 20 OF BILLBOARD’S HOT 100
“SAFE AND SOUND” VIDEO NOMINATED FOR TWO MTV VMA’S
“KANGAROO COURT,” THE SECOND SINGLE FROM IN A TIDAL WAVE OF MYSTERY, ADDED BY KROQ AND 98/7 IN LOS ANGELES AND SF’S LIVE 105

Capital Cities is co-headlining the feel-good event of the fall concert season: “Bright Futures Tour” with Fitz and The Tantrums. The two high-energy, Los Angeles-based bands will kick off the U.S. run on October 20 at The National in Richmond, VA. Tickets are on sale now for the outing, which will include shows at Roseland Ballroom in New York City (October 23) and Washington, DC’s 9:30 Club (October 30).

Capital Cities have taken the world by storm with the break out hit “Safe and Sound,” which is approaching Platinum status in the U.S., where it’s a multi-format smash at radio. After hitting No. 1 at Modern Rock, it’s now Top 10 at Triple A, Top 15 at Top 40 and Top 15 at Hot AC. Featured on the band’s debut album, In A Tidal Wave Of Mystery, it’s in the Top 20 of the Billboard Hot 100, has over four million streams on Spotify and is the #4 most Shazam-ed track in America. “Safe and Sound” has been heard on “American Idol,” “TODAY,” “90210” and in more than a half dozen promotional campaigns, including spots for Nike, HBO and Smart Car. The track has already gone Platinum in Germany and Gold in Canada.

The official "Safe and Sound" video– directed by Grady Hall (Beck, Modest Mouse) – recently picked up two MTV Video Music Award nominations: Best Visual Effects and Best Art Direction. The clip, which has racked up over eight million views, is a mash-up of the past 100 years of dance, presided over by front men Ryan Merchant and Sebu Simonian at the historic Los Angeles Theatre. It was choreographed by Mandy Moore(“So You Think You Can Dance,” Silver Linings Playbook).

Capital Cities – founded by Merchant and Simonian, two L.A.-based jingle writers who met on Craigslist – recently performed “Safe and Sound” on the outdoor stage of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” You can view their appearance.   The band also recently performed at the Grove Summer Concert Series where over 7,500 people were in attendance.


Modern rock stations such as KROQ and 98/7 in Los Angeles and Live105 in San Francisco have already jumped on the band’s follow up single, “Kangaroo Court,” which Billboard hailed as a “summer jam if we’ve ever heard one.” The band – which USA Today praised for its “playful fusion of pop, rock and EDM” in a recent “On the Verge” feature – continues its world tour, with dates in Japan, Korea, Europe and North America.
