Lady Gaga Has A Black Eye: Morning Mix

Did You Hear?

:: It looks like a concussion wasn’t Lady Gaga‘s only souvenir after getting hit in the head at a concert two days ago. Mother Monster tweeted a picture of herself sporting one heck of a shiner, which Elton John can add to his list of ever-growing Gaga concerns. [Popcrush]

:: “Jesus, Take The Wheel” singer Carrie Underwood just set a precedent for country singers everywhere by publicly supporting gay marriage. [MTV]

:: Rapper-turned-actor Ice-T defends Nicki Minaj‘s hip-hop cred, calling her “a female Busta Rhymes.” [Rolling Stone]

:: According to a Coney Island principal, patriotic songs aren’t appropriate for graduation — and pulled the plug on favorites such as “God Bless the USA” and “Proud to be an American.” Perfectly acceptable, however? Justin Bieber‘s “Baby.” [NY Post]

:: It’s been nearly 10 years since The Soul Sessions first came out, and Joss Stone is finally releasing the sequel, appropriately titled The Soul Sessions 2, on July 31. Listen to her cover of “(For God’s Sake) Give More Power to the People.” [Billboard]
