They're Here To Make You Rock - Hollywood Vampires

Johnny Depp & Alice Cooper

Johnny Depp will get to play rock star with two past collaborators and rock legends.

The movie star has formed a supergroup  Hollywood Vampires, with the original Marilyn Manson Alice Cooper and Aerosmith lead guitarist Joe Perry. The band will perform its first major gig at the 2015 Rock in Rio music festival that will take place in September in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, they have also recorded an album.

"Alice Cooper and Johnny Depp have been partners for a while and now with Joe Perry also on Hollywood Vampires, they will 'rock it out' yet once again."  Alice Cooper stated.

The name of the supergroup is an homage to The Hollywood Vampires, a posse of famous musicians who used alcohol as their method of initiation back in the '70s, according to the festival's statement and Rolling Stone. The "Lair of the Hollywood Vampires" was the famed Rainbow Bar and Grill in West Hollywood. Cooper, The Who's Keith Moon, The Beatles' John Lennon and Ringo Star and Harry Nilsson were among the members.

I've been to the Rainbow Bar and Grill - guess that makes me an alcohol sucker too!

Can't Retouch This! Cindy Crawford

Cindy Crawford: Just Say No To Retouching 

An un-retouched image of one Ms. Cindy Crawford has been circulating the Internet since Friday the 13th.

I just caught it this ayem online. One werd...Hot! 

Marie Claire magazine which commissioned the shot that the leaked photo came from confirmed it's authenticity by stating: "It's real and it is gorgeous." 

Obviously I concur. Cindy has always been one of my favorite supermodels not only because of her beauty, she also has a down to earth accessibility to her. A warm personality and a brain to go with it.

So nice to see how she really looks with out all the smoke and mirrors. 

Hey Cindy, you should never be retouched, just sayin'...

Sandy Zacky "I Wish You Love"

50 Plus Years Of Marriage: Sandy & Her Husband Ron Taken On Her Birthday This Year

"I wish you bluebirds in the spring, to give your heart a song to sing,
And then a kiss, but more than this, i wish you love" - I Wish You Love

Nothing says love like a fifty plus year marriage and that's what Entertain Me's resident chanteuse Sandy with a "Y" not "E" Zacky has.

In 2007 Sandy with her singing partner Mike Clifford recorded an album Love is Everything. A compilation of songs about what else? Love! Including a duet by herself & Clifford on the title track and a solo rendition by Ms. Z of I Wish You Love.

Sandy has this to say to all of you on this Valentine's Day: "Whatever your plans and wherever you are I wish you all love, health and happiness, Happy Valentine's Day, Love Sandy." 

Thanks Sandy, back at ya!

Scoop! "Revenge" For Courtney Love

Courtney Love On Empire

Is anyone out there loving Courtney's return to acting? I know I am!

Starting with her story arc on the final season of Sons of Anarchy to this weeks stint as a fading rock star saved from obscurity on the hot, hot, hot break out show of the season Empire.

Up next for Ms. Love? She will be appearing on one of her favorite shows Revenge.

That's right the rocker loves the show and met with the creators of it and they came up with an awesome role for her, naturally.

It's always riveting when Courtney appears on the big and small screen. After a quite lack luster season I am finally looking forward to seeing Revenge again!

Take a look at Courtney Love on Empire below:

Dudley Saunders - The Man In The Game

Dudley Saunders - The Man In The Game

Here is  the second lyric video from Dudley Saunder's IN THESE BOXES. The Man In The Game. Here is the text that precedes it. 

Generations pass and it’s the 1990s.  I am living in New York at the height of the AIDS crisis, and this teenage boy is living in a trailer in eastern Kentucky. He lives with his grandmother, who has diabetes and sleeps a lot, and there are no men at home.  But there is a man in the video game, and he talks to him, and invites him into manhood, of a kind.

Check out the video and song by this talented guy after the jump!

My Quick Take On The Grammy's

Annie Lennox - Queen of the Night 

Opening with AC/DC pleased this Rock N Roll dudes heart, yes, it truly is a Highway To Hell people! 

While I was a huge Madonna fan once that was so Confessions On A Dance Floor ago.

Madonna so sucked last night it was like a vacuum on it's last legs - I am over gay men who are drooling over her performance. (hey being one I have a lot of them on my Facebook page, so this is first hand experience.)

Annie Lennox was IT last night, she had the last werd! 

Have loved her since the Eurythmics and all of her solo work is bomb! 

Although Hozier is very talented I was annoyed and over hearing his song Take Me To Church. My spin instructor has been playing it every class for the last 3 months, I go Saturday and Sunday, do that math!

Note to Kanye West, quit always defending Beyonce you jackhole. She was tre' boring last night. If people weren't already asleep by the end of the show, they sure would have dozed off then. 

Taylor Swift, quit getting down, white girl you have no rhythm and it's uncomfortable when the camera cuts to you and you pretend to. 

Katy Perry is a lovely and gracious loser.

Congratulations Sam Smith, the appeal is lost on me.

Love Beck, but I did not even know he had an album out last year.

Jessi J. & Tom Jones, that was cool. Not a show stealing performance like Annie Lennox, but fifty shades of cool none the less.

Pentatonix so glad you won, you deserved it for your Daft Punk medley.

Yeah, I'm done, I said it was a quick take, capice? 

Until next year!
