Twitter #Music service launches on web and iPhone
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Internet, Music, Software,
The rumored Twitter Music service has become a reality, launching this morning. Twitter #music seems to be a natural step for the service, which sees hundreds of millions of users regularly discussing music on the service, as well as a bunch of popular musicians as well. Twitter #music aims to help you find music you'll like, based on your Twitter activity. You can access #music through a web browser, and there's also a new dedicated #music iOS app that lets you easily view and listen to music that's popular and trending on Twitter, undiscovered artists, music that it knows you like, and a #NowPlaying area that shows what others are listening to.
One important note here is that Twitter #music isn't a streaming music service. Instead, it's a layer that allows you to access your Rdio, Spotify, and iTunes tracks, using Twitter #music as your navigation mechanism. You simply connect your accounts to #music, and you are all set. The iOS app is slick, and we hear the Android version will be on its way soon. You can download Twitter #music for iPhone now.

Lady Gaga turned down $1 million to appear at the US Republican conference last year.
The "Bad Romance" singer was offered the huge sum to appear at the event in August 2012, and the party even promised $230,000 of the money would go to domestic violence shelter if she agreed to perform.
Other artists to say no to the event included country star Dolly Parton and rapper Pitbull, although they were offered lower fees.
The discoveries were made in a lawsuit filed by the Republican party's fundraising organization, American Action Network against Cater America LLC, who organized entertainment for the event. Gaga, 27, has previously been critical of Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, and showed support for current president Barack Obama, when he was elected ahead of his opponent for the Democrat party in November last year.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Television, Pregnancies,
Jenna Dewan-Tatum has jumped to the defense of Kim Kardashian. The 32-year-old American Horror Story actress - who is set to give birth to her first child with her Magic Mike star husband Channing Tatum in London this summer - tweeted a special message in support of pregnant women just days after supermodel Helena Christensen lashed out people for criticizing Kim's weight gain and maternity style.
Writing on her Twitter page on Monday, Jenna urged her followers to be more compassionate to women like Kim, saying, "Let's all be kind to every woman out there who is expecting. It shouldn't be about how much weight someone has gained, their fashion etc . . . it's a beautiful amazing moment in time and not about vanity."

Kristen Bell and Dax Shephard have given birth to a baby girl.
The couple - who got engaged in 2009 - announced on Twitter yesterday they have welcomed Lincoln Bell Shephard - their first child together - into the world. Dax, 38, wrote to his followers, "Lincoln Bell Shepard is here. She has mom's beauty and dad's obsession with breasts. Hooray!"
The new mother was nervous towards the end of her pregnancy, and admitted she was relying on the help of friends who had already made the leap to parenthood. Kristen, 32, had recently said, "I'm gathering advice from everyone. I have a lot of friends with kids and work with a lot of people with children, so I'm just asking what's their best bit of advice. The nice thing is that, hands down, every person I know that has ever had a kid has looked at me with confidence and said, 'Oh, this is the best thing you'll ever do with your entire life.' So, that's nice to know."

Snoop Lion Wants Gay Marriage Equality
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Legal Issues,
Snoop Lion has "no issues" with gay marriage. The rapper spoke in favor of equality as the US Supreme Court debates California's ban on same-sex weddings, adding people should be free to do "as they please."
"People can do what they want and as they please ... Satisfy yourself accordingly. I have no issues with nobody, I live for me and I live my life doing what I do, so you should have the right to do whatever you want to do," he told The Huffington Post.
The 41-year-old musician - who embraced Rastafarianism and changed is name from Snoop Dogg last year - is one of a number of celebrities opposing the ban and hoping for it to be overturned. Seth MacFarlane wrote to his Twitter followers on Tuesday, "Supreme Court, stop acting like cowards. Now IS the time for a broad ruling to make the leap into the 20th century. --Sincerely, the 21st."
Snoop also spoke of his new culture, revealing he was "never nervous" about his time in Jamaica: "I'm never nervous. Always ready. Stay ready so I don't have to get ready. 'Nervous' has never been one of my traits. I like to be prepared and go do what I have to do. I love meeting pressure with performance."
