Kelly vs. Kelly: Watch Kelly Clarkson & Tori Kelly Turn Christmas Caroling Into a Contest
Plus: The two “American Idol” alums team up for a “Silent Night” duet. Kelly Clarkson usually reigns the stage of her daytime talk show solo, but she recruited Tori Kelly to sing a Christmas duet and duke it out over who can finish singing classic carols. The two Kellys sprinkled some soul into their socially distant rendition of “Silent Night” from Tori Kelly’s first Christmas album, A Tori Kelly Christmas, which she executive-produced alongside Babyface and Scooter Braun. But that’s not the only Christmas song these two performed in front of their virtual audience. Both American Idol alums put their voices to the test to see who could finish a Christmas song for a festive and aptly named Kelly Clarkson Sho...

‘Literally Nobody’ Wants to Buy Nick Cave’s Pornographic Wallpaper
If you want to buy some wallpaper of Nick Cave’s drawings of naked women, it sounds like you could honestly say that you’re the only person who has it. The singer-songwriter (who’s usually accompanied by the Bad Seeds, although apparently not as bad as his commercial choice of wallpaper drawings) mentioned to Financial Times that he hasn’t sold a single roll of the £200 ($270ish for those in America) product. “My favorite thing is the Hyatt Girls pornographic wallpaper, made from drawings of naked women I have doodled in hotels down the years,” Cave said. “It’s a lovely thing – and so far has sold zero rolls. I am immensely proud of designing a product that literally nobody wants!” Of course, there are also some items for sale that are hopefully selling better, like pol...

Why JEFF SCOTT SOTO Has No Interest In Writing Tell-All Autobiography
In a new interview with “Let’s Discuss With Lance Hall”, veteran hard rock vocalist Jeff Scott Soto was asked if he would ever consider writing an autobiography. He responded (hear audio below): “There is a book that my former tour manager pieced together. I guess it came out during the 30-year anniversary of my career back in 2014, I believe it was. And he was able to get it out on hard copy, but we never got it published. It wasn’t necessarily a tell-all, like giving all the dirt and all the details. It was more of a chronicle of my career — all the things that I’ve done, how I got involved with these people, et cetera, et cetera. I thought it was very chock-full of great information, but, as we all know, people want the dirt — they want the stories. T...
