  1. Avicii has some killer tracks but the hype around him has died down considerably. He is pretty mainstream now and I doubt his sound will be the hot thing by the end of the year. Yeah the kids love him at EDM festivals but half of them don't even know who the fuck they are listening to they are that high. And being a DJ and mixing lots of different artists is not the same as producing consistently good work as a producer. I'd be interested in a one off track for HIS album but a whole album with him would be overkill. And I actually really liked his remix of GGW.

    I'm not saying I don't want her to work with "mainstream" artists and she has to find some underground DJ or do an album of ballads. I would just rather she finds someone a little more inspiring than Avicii.

  2. There is nothing wrong with being patriotic on Australia Day! I'm kind of getting annoyed with all these people trying to push invasion day bullshit and white guilt onto modern Australians. I also find it sad that second and third generation "wog" kids grow up with more pride about the countries of their grandparents and parents than the country that has given them so much opportunity. I'm FIRST gen aussie and have actually visited the places of my parents birth and you know what? They are shit holes. I'm so grateful to have been born and raised here. That said like San, growing up Australia day was never a big thing, it's only growing into adulthood that I've really come to appreciate just how great this country is! Happy Australia Day!

    On a side note does it piss anyone else off that we can't get In Bed With Madonna on DVD/Bluray? Like seriously WTF?!?!

  3. The Hydrangeas was a bigger story and I still can't believe they mention the whole thing was a set up and the "fan" was a known prankster. They still tlak about how mean she was to a "fan". Even Dlisted mentioned the guy in a story about Bradley Cooper recently and didnt mention it was the same guy who gave Madonna the flowers but said he'd pranked other celebs.

  4. I don't know the whole story because I was too young to really understand racial issues back then but I find that a lot of people read comments like this today and view it from today's perspective. Even though it doesn't seem like that long ago things were a lot different then which really shows that we have come a pretty long way when it comes to minorities.

    But anyway I'm not sure as to what relationships she is referring to but it sounds like this was around the time of her and 2pac. The rumors I've read about them were that they were really into each other but he dumped her because she was white. Apparently his friends or whoever were telling him he was insulting his heritage for dating a white woman or something along those lines so he ended it.

    Also there was the thing with Charles Barkley. I don't know the whole story other than the comment she made on Letterman saying he can't be friends with people. Paraphrasing. Perhaps someone can fill in some more.
