Justin Sings the Beatles "Let it Be" in Times Square
Here is a duet we didn’t expect – Justin Bieber and Carlos Santana paired up in New York City to celebrate the New Year and somewhere along the way they decided to sing a song together.
And not just any song either.
Justin played the piano and sang to the Beatles classic “Let it Be” and Carlos Santana jammed on the guitar.
This performance just put Justin in a whole different league…
We got to give it to Justin for his performance but we have a sneaky feeling that by tomorrow morning this video will be yanked from YouTube and no longer be available.
It pays to be friends with the most popular pop singer in the world.
17-year-old Justin Bieber just returned to his hometown of Stratford Ontario Candida to celebrate Christmas and spend time with his family when he promptly proceeded to buy his best friend Ryan Butler a brand new white Mustang convertible.
That’s right! Justin bought Ryan a new car for Christmas.
Ryan Butler New Christmas Present! A New CAR!
Bieber and Butler have been best friends ever since they were in middle school and at one point JB and his mother Pattie actually lived with Ryan’s family when they fell on hard times.
Butler took to twitter to show off his new car saying,
American Idol runner up and Glam King Adam Lambert was arrested in Helsinki this morning after getting into a bar fight at a gay club in Finland.
The “What Do You Want From Me” singer became involved in the fight with his boyfriend Sauli Koskinen while still inside the bar but witnesses say they went outside to cool off but again started to fight.
Lambert and Koskine
TMZ is reporting that Lambert was even fighting with bystanders who were trying to break to two lovebirds apart.
Both Lambert and Sauli Koskinen were arrested and transported to a jail in Helsinki and later released after being questioned by police.
Neither Adam nor Sauli were injured and no arrests were made.
Sauli later went online to say,
"Publicity is not easy, but also celebrities are just human. Love is not easy either, but it lasts forever!"
Lambert was not on tour but was vacationing with his boyfriend Sauli who was born in Finland.
The fight broke out in a gay club called “Don't Tell Mama”.
Justin Bieber and his 3-year-old sister Jazzy at Massey Hall
Last week Justin Bieber played an acoustic Christmas concert in Toronto’s famous Massey Hall and brought along his friends, parents, grandparents, and his little sister Jazzy.
Justin and Jazzy
Three year old Jazzy, also known as Jazmyn, was welcomed to the stage by big brother Justin for a little impromptu chatting and singing.
The crowd erupted in emotion as Justin hugged Jazzy and got her to sing a little bit of his music before ushering her offstage to return to her father Jeremy.
Justin Bieber and his funniest moments caught on tape!
The one good thing about being the biggest superstar in the World is that everything you do is probably caught on tape.
And Justin Bieber is no exception!
The following video compiled by belieberforever100 shows Justin Bieber’s funniest moments caught on tape during 2010-2011.
Thanks to all who contributed their time and energy to put these videos together - we should all go subscribe to their YouTube Channel to show our appreciation!
It’s all here – the first mustache, the Penguieber, the backstage horsing around, the good interviews gone bad, the sprinkler, the coning, the Derrick Bieber, and tons more.
These are truly some of the funniest moments of the Bieb’s at work since he became the most famous person in the world.
And if that’s not enough to tickle your funny bone then here is another one compiled by Cutietutietal that goes back even farther in time.
And just make sure you have had enough Bieber funny for one day we are including a third video by Jbieberwolfpack that includes just about everything else not covered elsewhere.
There. That should hold you.
We do make one observation however, and we don’t mean this in a bad way, but it seems that Justin was much funnier and carefree in his younger days.
Perhaps the last few years of intense media exposure and heavy work schedule has taken a little bit of the luster off the whole World dominating superstar thing…
We’re just saying…

Stevie Wonder and Justin Bieber sing Some Day at Christmas
Sometimes in life things come around full circle.
I remember right when Justin Bieber started to become famous, I watched the YouTube video of him singing Stevie Wonder’s “Someday at Christmas” when he was only 12-years-old.
Bieber’s voice was as pure as it could get - standing alone on that stage in Stratford Ontario - not even aware that in a very short time his life was going to be changed forever.
In fact, I still occasionally watch that video to remind myself how pure and innocent his voice was. See if you agree…
Doesn’t that just give you goose bumps? I mean really…
Then, a few years later, Bieber graced the stage at the White House and had the amazing opportunity to sing the very same song in front of President and Mrs. Obama and their two daughters.
It was good, but you could tell his nerves may have got the best of him – but it was still good. See if you agree…
Not bad right?
But last night Justin had the rarest opportunity of all – to sing “Someday at Christmas” with the man himself… Stevie Wonder!
Justin joined Stevie on stage at the "Stevie’s House Full of Toys" benefit concert at the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles and they both did what they do so well.
Not bad eh?
Well… actually, we thought it was a bit weak and seemed as if it had been thrown together at the last minute and only rehearsed once.
Justin started late, sang flat in some places and was terribly sharp at the end. It seemed like neither one of them knew what the other was going to do.
I guess you really can’t out master the master after all.
In the end I still go back to that little 12 year old kid, alone on the stage in Stratford, singing his heart out in a talent contest without the bright glare of the World staring at him.
Sometimes it’s the simple things that are the sweetest.
Know what I mean?

There is sad news today for the family of Selena Gomez.
Selena’s mother, Mandy, suffered a miscarriage on Friday and Selena and Justin Bieber have rushed to be by her side.
Selena and Mandy Gomez
Selena cancelled two concerts for the weekend so she could be with her mother in Texas.
Mandy Gomez, and her husband Brian Teefey, had been expecting their first child together and Selena had voiced publically her excitement of having a new baby brother or sister.
E! News is reporting that Selena was attending the Power 106's Cali Christmas 2011 concert in Los Angeles last night when she was given the bad news and quickly left to return home.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Selena and her family.
But now, the Dreamland Wax Museum in Brazil has done the unthinkable – it has released a wax figure of Justin Bieber that looks NOTHING, and we mean NOTHING like the pop singer.
In fact, this is one of those situations that make you scratch your head and wonder what in the world they were thinking.
Here it is – the NON Bieber wax figure that is supposed to be a splitting image of the Biebs:
America's Got Talent - Howard Stern to replace Piers Morgan
Howard Stern has a new job – and not everybody is happy about it.
Stern, fresh off a $400 million deal at Sirius XM Radio has been named the new judge on NBC’s “America’s Got Talent” replacing Piers Morgan.
Howard Stern
While we are glad that Piers Morgan is gone because we really hated him and thought he was one of the most prideful and stuck up people in the world, we were not prepared to hear that Howard Stern will be replacing him.
And the Parents Television Council is not happy with AGT either – saying the move was a desperate act by the failing network to try and grab ratings at the expense of polluting the minds of our children saying,
“We are stunned the network would hire Howard Stern, a performer who is synonymous with shock, profanity and obscenity. The once-proud broadcast network has lost its way and has made it clear it holds no concern whatsoever for children and families. Not coincidentally, in just over three weeks the network will be standing before the United States Supreme Court arguing for the right to use the F-word at any time of the day, even in front of children."
The move may actually backfire on NBC because America's Got Talent is supposed to be about the contestants and not the judges.
Over the past two seasons viewers grew tired of the constant infighting between judges Piers Morgan and Howie Mandel saying it distracted from the show.
In light of Alec Baldwin’s recent ejection from an American Airline flight for causing a disturbance, he took to SNL over the weekend to declare himself a National Treasure.
Baldwin was removed from the flight for refusing to turn off his phone while playing the game “Words with friends”.
The timing was perfect - and Baldwin, no stranger to Saturday Night Live, took to the Weekend Update desk alongside Seth Meyers to parody his problems.
Kind of cool that within 24 hours of the incident Baldwin could call in a favor from Lorne Michaels and be on SNL for a comedy spot.
A Shirtless Justin Bieber on the beach in Cabo Mexico
After a busy last few weeks with “Mistletoe” promo and TV appearances, Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez headed to Cabo San Lucas Mexico for a little rest and relaxation.
But it wasn’t all fun and games as the couple was there to attend a private wedding for an old friend and costume designer Shannon Larossi from Selena’s TV days on “Wizards of Waverly Place”.
Justin Bieber in Cabo Mexico
Justin didn’t bring any family along but Selena brought along her pregnant mother Mandy and her stepfather Brian.
The couple did find some time to snag a photographer and some sun tan lotion and hit the beach for a little sun worshiping.
Bieber was shirtless and showing off his tattoos while Selena was sporting a tiny blue bikini - and there probably wasn’t a cuter couple to be seen for a thousand miles.
However, this time the two lovebirds seemed to be able to keep their public display of affection to a minimum and gave the photog the good old fashion “celebrities on the beach” photo session.

Justin was just in Florida at Walt Disney World to kick of the holiday celebrations and also just released the official video for “Santa Clause is Coming to Town” music video.
The two love birds will return to Los Angeles in a few days and plan to split their time with family and friends in L.A., Atlanta, Stratford, and Texas for the Holidays.
Large Hole From Cannon Ball After Mythbusters Accident
We love the Discovery Channels science TV show Mythbusters. They’ve debunked some of the best myths ever to grace our sordid history.
But yesterday the show was put on hold after a cannon ball experiment went bad and the hosts shot a cannon ball through two houses and into a Dublin California couple’s minivan by accident.
Poor Jamie
The experiment, created by hosts Jamie Hyneman and Adam Savage, was intended to illustrate what happens when you shoot NON cannon ball stuff out of a cannon.
The cannon was fired from the bomb range at Camp Parks but the ball traveled outside the grounds and into a residential housing area.
“The ball was supposed to hit a bunch of trash cans filled with water but it missed. Instead it ripped through a concrete wall, skipped over a hill of dirt before coming to rest in the city of Dublin.”
The Discovery channel has stopped taping the show until they complete an internal investigation.
We figured it was just a matter of time before something like this happened on the show. These guys do some pretty crazy things but always seem to take the necessary safety precautions.
Radio host Adam Carolla’s seems to be getting his first experience with the effects of pride, vanity, jealousy, envy, shame, revenge, wealth, and fame.
It’s all so Hollywood.
Last week he took to his radio show to rant about this whole occupy Wall Street movement, and it seems he deserves everything he has and all the problems we are having are OUR fault for not working hard enough and having low paying jobs.
Our troubles seem to have nothing to do with the greed, corruption, power and influence the uber wealthy have unleashed on an unsuspecting working class.
Carolla seems to take the typical Hollywood line when he tries to explain his frustration - taking the approach that “I earned it now leave me alone and go back to your bad day job, little house, fat wife and ugly kids.”
He seems to blame our woes on a culture where every kid on the soccer team gets a trophy – just for participating, and the real star of the game doesn’t get any special attention.
No Adam, you are not King and we will not bow down to worship you for your hard work and big bank account.
He views the current problem as a bunch of “self-entitled people” who are envious of others with wealth and all they want to do is throw rocks at our nice expensive toys.”
Now, this is pig man Adam Carolla talking here – the guy who bashed women and made rude and crude jokes on the “Man Show” to earn part of his fortune.
Adam’s Occupy Wall Street movement rant on his radio program showed us what we suspected all along – Carolla doesn’t seem to get why 99% of the public are frustrated these days.
It’s not ALL about you and your influence and money Adam. Here is the uncensored interview:
Yes Adam, it is as old as the Bible - especially the part where it says “Pride comes before the fall and a haughty spirit before the destruction.”
Maybe you just haven’t got to that part yet.
You are in a privileged class but seem unable to identify with those who have lost their job, home, retirement savings, etc., due to the greed and corruption by the banks, Wall Street, Federal Reserve, and our own Government.
You have your money so to hell with everybody else.
Your pride has become a little puffed up and even YOU flaunt your fame, money, and toys in an effort to impress.
Shame shame shame.
I’m surprised you didn’t take the line from Marie Antoinette where she said “Let them eat cake”.
Adam, the rich and powerful never understand why the poor hard working salt of the earth doth protest too much.
And yes, it is as old as the Bible.
Now you should read the rest of the good book where it talks about men and their money, power, and influence – pay close attention to the part where it cautions men about wallowing in their own gains while forgetting about the rest of the world’s problems.
Good riddance Adam Carolla. You and Howard Stern are like two peas in a pod, and we’re sorry that our countries problems have interfered with your fun.
And we’re not envious – we’re frustrated. Frustrated that people like you can earn what you do for being such a jackass.
Don’t let the size of your paycheck cloud your compassion, wisdom, empathy, and perceived talent.
In a somewhat bizarre combination of video and short film, Mother Monster Lady Gaga has released an extended video to her “Marry The Night” music video.
It starts with what sounds like the ramblings of an insane person, but maybe that’s just what she wants us to think.
With tears streaming down her face, Gaga is seen in a hospital bed being checked by a nurse. Gaga tells her “I’m going to be famous one day” and “I have nothing left to lose.”
It is truly a strange, bizarre, weird video. Things then transition to the music portion, and if you close your eyes and listen you can almost see Madonna in your head.
“Marry The Night” is a strange video indeed and we’re not sure why she felt the need to go to these lengths of bizarre to get her point across.
But then again, she IS Lady Gaga.
Who would have thought that the words Lady Gaga and Quantum Physics would ever be uttered in the same sentence?
Strange stuff indeed. The song and music seems ok but it doesn't seem that different from her usual music. It almost seems unremarkable compared with the strange introduction.
But hey, what do we know about what goes on deep inside that monster brain of hers!
