Madonna Shouldn't Play Guitar

Madonna's first show at Toronto's Air Canada Centre on her Sticky & Sweet Tour was a damn good spectacle. For fans who had never seen her before, it was probably mind-blowing, but for those who've seen any of her past three tours, this time around was more sticky than sweet. Madonna has a massive catalogue to chose from, and though she...

Leona Lewis Headbutts Horse

Leona Lewis' lip was bleeding — but probably not bleeding love — when she and her horse awkwardly (and apparently quite literally) butted heads. The British pop starlet went for an early morning ride in Los Angeles when her stallion, a birthday present from her friends, suddenly headbutted her, according to the U.K.'s Daily Mirror tabloid,...

Patrick Wolf: Gay Bashed?

A Madonna concert is probably one of the least likely places to get gay-bashed, but not if you're Patrick Wolf. Wolf (real name Patrick Apps), who's openly bisexual, says he was assaulted by security at a Madonna concert in September. He claims bouncers at the show handcuffed him and beat him up before throwing him out of London's Wembley Arena...
