Did You Hear?

:: Coming as a surprise to no one, Madonna‘s MDNA tour has been rife with scandal. The latest is that she’s skipping her Australia stop to spend more time with her kids — but at least she took the time to film an apology to her Aussie fans, explaining why she’d be an “irresponsible parent” if she extended her tour Down Under.

:: Every musician and their mother is set to appear on a singing competition show this fall, but Alanis Morissette isn’t doing her judging of the contestants, but rather the shows themselves. The “Guardian” angel doesn’t think these programs help foster singer/songwriters, or help create talents that will last beyond a mere flash in the pan. [PopCrush]

:: Everyone knows it’s in poor taste to upstage the bride at a wedding. But that’s what Kathie Lee Gifford claims Taylor Swift did when she crashed some Kennedy nuptials over the weekend. We’re sure she made her surprised face upon being asked to leave (twice). [E!]

:: Jennifer Lopez briefly reprised her starring role in the film Selena by playing tribute to the slain singer at a show in Dallas. [Pink Is The New Blog]

:: Why see just “Part of Me” when you can see pretty much all of Katy Perry in a sheer dress? [Huffington Post]
