In other music world news, the Foo Fighters just released their newest CD, Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace, on September 25th. IGN has a pretty good review of the album. Here is a little snippet,
Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace feels very much like a transitional album for the Foo Fighters. There’s traces of their past (the echoes, so to speak) in songs like “The Pretender” and there’s plenty of silence, patience, and grace in the form of songs like “Statues.”
Also, they have some recommended Foo Fighter downloads from the album:
1. “Let It Die”
2. “Stranger Things Have Happened”
3. “Summer’s End”
4. “Ballad of the Beaconsfield Miners”
5. “Statues”
6. “But Honestly”
7. “Once & For All (Demo)”
PS: The Sex Pistols are back in the studio! Its the first time in 30 years … wow.

This week, Common beat out Korn in the Billboard charts as his album Finding Forever debuted at #1. I didn’t particularly like the album, but if you want to go be one of the 155,300 people who actually did purchase the album, go right ahead. Common, who has been doin his rap thing for over 15 years has never had a #1 album. Probably with good reason!

An upcoming documentary by Producer Keya Morgan has compelling evidence that beauty Marilyn Monroe was murdered. Over 300 pages of top secret FBI and CIA intelligence files were recently declassified and released to the public, revealing new details about Monroe’s death.
The press release for the film says that Morgan interviewed FBI agents, former LAPD Police Chief Darryl Gates, Beverly Hills Police detective Lynn Franklin, first LAPD officer on the scene Jack Clemmons, Thomas Noguchi, former DA John Miner, and over 30 other government officials and police authorities for the new documentary. The press release goes on to say,
The FBI agent involved in the Marilyn Monroe murder cover-up spoke for the first time, in the new documentary. The agent is now in his late 80s, has prostate cancer and is reveling key names and information. The agent was siting in a van outside of Marilyn Monroe’s house the night she was killed. He states, “Marilyn Monroe did not commit suicide, she was murdered because she was a National security threat during the Cuban missile crises… both Robert and John F. Kennedy had given her too much information… she was labeled ‘the American Mata Hari’ by J. Edgar Hoover (then head of the FBI)… Both the FBI and CIA were recoding her every move while she was in the US and Mexico… The Attorney General Robert Kennedy was also there the night she was killed…”
I’m definitely going to have to check this one out for myself. Interesting stuff right here!

I know I’m a few months late on finding this video. It has over 1,000,000 views but, The Gossip Rag brings you, “Boys on Wheels.”
I’m definitely going to hell for posting this.
PS: This has absolutely nothing to do with Gossip News, other than the connection to New Kids on the Block!

A few weeks ago, President Bush got his watch stolen. Now, Tim McGraw got his wedding band jacked! YES! F*ck country music.
Actually, I don’t mind country music that much and the whole thing was really a misunderstanding. One fan grabbed Tim’s hand and accidentally snagged his ring. She tried to tell Tim she had it while he was too busy accusing and bitching out another fan. Epic!
Tim got his wedding ring back and it is assumed he went home to bang hottie wife Faith Hill.

RnB superstar Usher was suppose to get married this weekend to hottie Tameka Foster, who’s pregnant with their first child. The wedding was suppose to take place this weekend in the Hamptons between Usher Raymond the IV and Ms. Foster.
Usher’s mom didn’t approve of the wedding, but it is our belief that Usher, who is known for his love of porn and sex, just wanted to stay a single male pimp for a little longer!

Kanye West and comedian Zach Galifianakis along with indie superstar musician Will Oldham collaborate on a remix of the Can’t Tell Me Nothin’ video. The music video was shot on Galifianakis’ farm in North Carolina. Galifinakis says about Kanye,
He asked me to do it. He doesn’t want to be in it, but he sent me this new song and then asked me to make a video for him here at my farm,” he recently told Impose Magazine. “He saw me do stand up a few weeks ago here in Los Angeles, and we chatted after the show. He had seen me do these other music videos; I did one for Fiona Apple and I did one of my own where I sing an Anita Baker song. So he saw the Anita Baker one and asked me if I would come up with something. So we’ve been going back and forth trying to figure out what I’m going to do with the song.
This is pretty damn funny. Check out the video on The Claw Productions website.

Beonce Knowles took a rough spill last night while performing her song “Ring the Alarm” at her Orlando concert last night. Ms. Knowles requested that the video not be released to the public, however, a fan who wished to remain anonymous offered the footage to local news station WKMG Orlando. The fan said,
We saw that she was pumping her hair around and really into with her trench coat and high heels and as she proceeded to come down the stairs, she tripped on her coat and it seems like she fell on her collarbone and face, sliding down about 12 stairs.
The fan also reports that there was bloodshed! Poor beautiful legs!
