VIDEO: Aguilera Performs National Anthem at NBA Finals
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Gossip, Performances, Videos, Pop,
If there’s a song that could possibly be oversung, chances are Mariah Carey or Christina Aguilera have already done it.
Before last night’s NBA Finals game, Aguilera made a point of reminding us - once again - that she A) has a big voice B) can do a lot of things with it.
After hearing her rendition of “The Star-Spangled Banner,” let us know what you think. Were her vocal gymnastics perfect for the song? Or could she have toned the performance - and her rings - down a bit?

VIDEO: Slash Attacked by Fan, Keeps on Playing

What’s better than hearing Slash play his guitar solo on “Sweet Child O’ Mine”? Watching him continue to play it after being rushed by a fan.
On June 10, the former Guns N’ Roses musician was in the middle of a performance in Milan, Italy when he was (rudely) greeted by a surprise guest. (Cue the video to the 1:15 mark.) The good news? The shirtless jerk got a bigger piece of the floor than he did of Slash. The bad news? The rocker eventually had to have his broken Les Paul guitar replaced.
After the show, Slash addressed the incident on his own Facebook page. “Rowdy crowd for sure. But amazing! The guy who nailed me didn’t take me down but he busted my poor gtr. Ah well, it was a kick ass rock show in the 1st order!”

VIDEO: Dixie Chicks Cover Train’s Soul Sister

Sometimes a song comes along that is so fun and catchy, you don’t mind singing it repeatedly—until you’ve you completely banned the tune from your household.
While I haven’t (yet) written off Train’s “Soul Sister,” I’m coming dangerously close. But in the meantime, I going to listen to the Dixie Chicks cover it a few times more. I mean, after all, it really feels like those girls were meant to sing that song to begin with.

Adam Lambert may have been the one who recorded “Whataya Want From Me,” but that doesn’t mean he’s the only person who can perform it.
Although Pink - the tune’s songwriter - claims Lambert can “sing it way better” than her, I’m not sure I actually agree.
After listening to her cover the track during her European tour, let us know what you think. Should Pink have just kept the song for herself?

American Idol 9 winner Lee DeWyze charmed fans with his crooked smile and heartfelt vocals, but before the days of reality TV, DeWyze flirted with more darker musical stylings.
TMZ has unearthed a copy of a track Lee recorded in his pre-Idol days: a cover of Marilyn Manson’s “Beautiful People.”
The song never made it on an album, but now you can listen to it as much as you like.

If I ever hear another American Idol hopeful sing Tracy Chapman’s “Give Me One Reason” another time, I swear I’ll scream. That’s why this Chapman cover by two Idol vets is so refreshing—and awesome.
On Sunday night, Season 1 winner Kelly Clarkson and Season 5 contestant Chris Daughtry collaborated on “Fast Car” before a crowd in Nashville. Ticket sales from Daughtry’s concert were donated to help with flood relief in the area.
