With just a few days left in 2011, we can’t help but predict what 2012 has in store. Will the world come to an end? Maybe. Will Barack Obama be re-elected? Hopefully. Will the Miami Heat dominate the NBA? Of course. But what about the music world? What changes will…
Ever since Michael Moore’s exploitive documentary, Bowling for Columbine, liberals, hipsters, and pseudo-intellectuals have fawned over our great cousin to the north.But perhaps Canada is not the peaceful, crimeless country depicted in Moore’s documentary — the one where people leave their doors unlocked and the murder rate of the entire…
Shit … We thought the Miami Heat was an $80-million professional basketball team. Turns out, though, The Big Three and company is actually a crappy boy band. Just check out King James, D-Wade, and Big Bosh’s new music video, set to Kanye West’s weenie anthem “All of the Lights,” and…
For all the hype still surrounding it, dubstep won’t be popular forever. From collaborations with Korn to Christmas carol remixes, signs of its imminent demise are springing up all over the place. But will 2012 be the year that dubstep finally dies? Or will it desperately cling to life and…
Looking back upon the year that was, it’s not too difficult to narrow the field of food trends that gripped Miami’s culinary scene. There are those that we love (local craft brews to go with your meal) and naturally, those that we hate (those silly mini-cupcakes that are everywhere), but…
You ever wonder about the hidden, intimate moments of Lady Gaga’s private life? Us neither. However, I’m-more-famous-than-my-subjects photog Terry Richardson apparently answered that question the other way. He stalked the hell out of Mother Monster for a year, starting at Lollapalooza 2010 and ending with her final Monster Ball shows…
Music Television is seemingly jumping onto the electro dance train, recognizing that beat freaks love making it rain web hits by reading about their favorite DJs on the internet — a practice Crossfade’s all too familiar with, Ultra. About an hour ago, MTV News posted its incomplete list of Best…
The Queen of All Media, Perez Hilton, is all about the latest Nielsen Soundscan totals, which feature a number of the gossip blogger’s faves, like Lady GaGa and boring old Adele. For Crossfade, though, Soundscan is a lot like the Grammys: It don’t mean shit. Yeah, great, the illiterate, Facebooking…
It is said that desperate times call for desperate measures. There is no denying that Rachelle Grimmer felt desperate when she shot her two children and then killed herself inside a Laredo, Texas food stamp office.Although the 38-year-old mother of two was obviously in dire straits, or at least believed…
Everyone loves to get into the act for Christmas. For some reason, snowmen and brightly lit trees make everyone want to record a song. Adam Sandler, Paul McCartney, and David Bowie among those who have felt the need to share the holiday spirit. Now, Bitchin’ Kitchen’s Nadia G. gives us…
I feel like restaurant roadkill after a sad experience Tuesday night when I attempted to eat at one of my favorite neighborhood spots, Joey’s in Wynwood. I was ousted from a table by people who were identified as “the owner’s friends” just prior to being seated. Now, I completely understand…
Last week, The Layover premiered to audible groans of pain…by me. Anthony Bourdain’s new travel show had an interesting premise — what would Tony do if stuck in a city for 24 hours? Unfortunately, the show had a frenetic overly produced feel about it. I disliked the clock counting down…
Last night, Sun Life Stadium was packed with thousands of people under the age of 45. Most of them were actually little children, up late for a night to watch the Black Eyed Peas’ final concert before taking a nice, long break from each other. Though fans sported fairly conservative…
Each year for this day they give up their livesWe eat them right down to the boneSo lay off the peach glaze, teriyaki and chivesLeave the damn turkey alone!Natives of India, by all means use curryTo season and uplift your birdIf Japan is your homeland I wouldn’t worryIf you smeared…
The rich and famous don’t really dress better than the rest of us. They just get away with looking ridiculous ’cause their shit’s gaudier, flashier, and way more fucking expensive. Take Kanye’s getup the other night at his and Jay-Z’s Watch the Throne gig in Miami. Dude was wearing a…
Remember when the Wade County police department teamed up with a veteran rogue enforcer named Shaquille O’Neal and the Miami Heat won the first and only NBA championship of its existence? Yeah, there was a title. But also a lot of shit talking. And ultimately, disappointment. So much so that…
Justin Bieber’s baby drama has come to an end, according to TMZ. The celebrity gossip website is reporting that the paternity suit filed against Bieber has been dismissed and the two lawyers representing Mariah Yeater have quit. Was there a hush-hush settlement? Did Justin Bieber’s superfans intimidate Yeater enough to…
I love free stuff, Groupon, discounts, hook ups, and so on. But my obsession with not throwing away food when there is some other use for it stems from more than the fact I like to save a little coin.Americans generate more than 34 million tons of food waste annually…
Lindsay Lohan’s out of jail. But her legal problems aren’t even close to being over. The LiLo v. Pitbull, Nee-Yo, and Afrojack saga continues as Mr. 305’s lawyers have presented a notice of removal in an effort to shift the case from county to federal court. The document, filed last…
Remember Lil Wayne’s rock album, Rebirth? Well, it was the only idea worse than Hulk Hogan’s rap album. Nevertheless, Weezy is gearing up for a sequel. And we imagine it’s going to be two times the shitfest. Dude just released Tha Carter IV, the weakest album of the entire franchise…
I was shocked to find out that someone at headquarters was actually paying attention to my silly rant on behalf of blondes everywhere, with regards to Starbucks’ new “light bodied blend.” My editor received an email with my name on it that very day, proclaiming “we chose the name Blonde…
Justin Bieber stopped by Rockerfeller Plaza this morning and chatted it up with the cast of The Today Show. The one question on everyone’s mind, what’s the deal with your voice, dude? “My voice is evolving and changing for the better,” he told Ann Curry. “It’s been amazing.” OK, so…
