Did You Hear?

:: M.I.A. performed at The Creators Project in New York over the weekend, and got a little too creative with her hair. Anyone else in the mood for an Astropop? [MTV Buzzworthy]

:: From Insane Clown Posse to Gorillaz to Captured by Robots (a group made entirely out of actual heavy metal), here is the definitive list of bizarre concept bands. [Vulture]

:: A woman from Los Angeles bought Michael Jackson’s crystal-studded glove at auction for $190,000. Wer’re surprised she didn’t snag up all these delightful MJ items for sale on eBay while she was at it. [PopEater]

:: Check out Arjan’s interview with Bruno Mars, the sexy man singing the hooks on Travie McCoy’s “Billionaire” and B.o.B’s “Nothin’ On You.” We’d definitely put money down on this singer-songwriter blowing up big this year. [Arjan Writes]

:: The Electric Daisy Carnival wasn’t just about getting into trouble and traveling to the hospital—there were some great moments from the SoCal “massive”, including will.i.am keeping the peace, Benny Benassi sampling the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and a surprising Rivers Cuomo cameo. [Spin]
