The other day a journalist compared Kanye West to Bowie, in terms of being his equivalent in the hip-hop world for his artistic innovations. I understand what he meant by that but we're not comparing products here and one of the great things about Bowie is that he seemed to be a genuinely nice person, something that…

I know music journalists (the most pretentious and pompous of the journalist species) in general deride his 80's stuff because he decided that he wanted to be a mainstream pop star for a while and stop wearing weird costumes and stuff. Now that we look back on it I think it was a genius move…Bowie being Bowie he would…

Madonna is actually the only other mainstream pop star that followed Bowie, in terms of reinvention. Yes I do think she hasn't been very interesting lately but she kept changing her style and image consistently all the way through the Confessions album. But, at the same time, there's nothing wrong with the Stones or…

Madonna has said that Bowie was her biggest influence when she started out

Or Outside

Yes you are the only one, go away

That always happens whenever a respected celebrity passes away. Sure I'm glad to see his singles on the UK's Chart and Blackstar topping the Billboard chart but my point is this pervasive ageism. Whenever I hear someone saying that Madonna or the Rolling Stones are too old to be doing what they're doing, that they…

Affirmative Action is gonna happen for awards ceremonies now and it will be as ridiculous as Donald Trump as president

Well that makes sense since 2015 was a shitty year for music in general

Well I enjoyed What Women Want. So what? Marisa Tomei was in it

Zac Effron is becoming as poisonous to the box-office as Johnny Depp. Neighbors was a hit mainly due to every other actor on it (Seth Rogen, Rose Byrne, Dave Franco)

That seems plausible…I've seen a few interviews with him on tv and he's obviously a smart guy

WELL I LAUGHED DAMMIT!

Why hire an actress with zero charisma? This whole thing is baffling and I predict this will go down the same route as Green Lantern

To me the most insufferable one is Louise…by miles.

Agreed. He was the show's weakest link by miles, I hope they tweak his character somehow for season 2

I'm calling the press immediately!!
