This past week has had some great tidbits of news!

- Finally Gene Simmons and long-time girlfriend Shannon Tweed are going to tie the knot! An October ceremony is planned.  I have been a huge fan of KISS (since childhood) and I personally find Gene Simmons to be an extrodanairy human being.  Best of luck to them!

- At the recent VMA awards it seems there was a recording agent passing around business cards that were not in great taste…apparently it was so over-the-top that he got arrested!  Sources say his music business cards had a nude image of Kim Kardashian on it with the caption, “Got Fame?”.   Supposedly this image comes from Kim’s infamous sex tape.  When Kim heard about this creep she had the cops arrest him.  No details on who this dude is but we will watch the story closely.

- Lady Gaga and Katy Perry hit the list….the banned music list that is!!  All music needs to be registered and reviewed by some music ministry and these apparently have not passed. The reason given for these songs hitting the banned list is, they “endanger national cultural safety”!  Wow!

50 Cent does the pre-game Super Bowl concert.  Between performing hits like “Candy Shop” and “Ayo Technology” with his crew, the rapper welcomed Deion Sanders and Ludacris on the Pontiac Garage Stage during Thursday’s performance at the 944 Super Village, a makeshift venue constructed by 944 magazine in an empty lot adjacent to Scottdale’s Fashion Square Mall.

Paris Hilton also made a cameo about halfway through 50’s performance. Hilton — who appears topless on the February cover of 944 magazine — emerged from the front row and partially danced her way onstage with 50, drawing the attention of both professional photographers’ lenses and audience members’ cell phones.

Meanwhile, two men dressed as Ooompa Loompas from “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory” danced on tables in a VIP section.

Backstage, reality TV stars Kourtney and Chloe Kardashian, actor Mekhi Phifer and two women wearing nothing but G-strings and Trump Premium Vodka bottles painted on their nude bodies were spotted. Tickets to the concert went for anywhere between $100 to $1,000.  The whole thing sounds very strange to me.

High kicking action movie star Jackie Chan has recorded an officially-endorsed song which will count down to the Beijing Olympics, he has said on his website.  He revealed in a blog entry that he had spent three hours recording We Are Ready on a trip to the Chinese capital.  Oh boy, get ready to cover your ears.

The song was written by Peter Kam, who won a Silver Bear at the Berlin Film Festival last year for his score to the production Isabella. And an English-language version of it was planned, Kam told Associated Press.  He added that a second Chinese version had been sung by more than 100 pop stars.
