Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Videos
“We are the World, was good the first time….”
Realizing the 25th anniversary-remake of the famous USA for Africa song was a colossal mess, “Quincy Jones” (a.k.a. Kenan Thompson) introduced a newer version of the song yesterday on Saturday Night Live.
It’s not entirely clear where proceeds from “We are the World 3: Raising Awareness of the We are the World 2 Disaster” will go to.

Vampire Weekend’s Rostam Batmanglij on His Gay Anthem
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Artist News, Alternative
Vampire Weekend‘s Rostam Batmanglij said he hopes “I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend” will be a huge hit with the gay community one day.
“With that song I was having fun, but at the same time it was honest - those lyrics are meaningful to me, they come from my heart,” the keyboardist, who publicly revealed his sexuality, said about the track he wrote last year for his side project, Discovery. “I was disappointed when it didn’t become a gay anthem, but, you know, it’s not too late.”
Speaking about his main band’s new record, Contra, the 26-year-old talked about how the group worked to develop a postmodern feel for some of the tracks.
“We wanted something very different from the first record,” Rostam said about Vampire’s CD to Out magazine. “You hear ‘80s harmonies on Contra, and for me that was the challenge: to make it not just sound like the ‘80s but feel like the ‘80s too. Because of the way it’s presented, with the sampler and choir, the song ‘I Think Ur a Contra’ sounds new but also nostalgic.”
Vampire Weekend is scheduled to make their second appearance on Saturday Night Live on March 6.

- Dave Matthews does a mean Ozzy Osbourne impression.
- Reba McEntire is really a black man with a red wig?
Press play to watch Kenan Thompson and Andy Samberg in one of the most random - and possibly controversial - digital shorts in some time.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Performances, Videos, Pop
It seems a lot of you are searching for Lady Gaga‘s performances from the October 3 episode of SNL, so we’ve got them both here for you. The video above was actually her second performance on the show, but it’s the one we thought was more interesting. In it, she performs a medley of “LoveGame,” “Bad Romance,” and a version of “Poker Face” that’s been remixed with a New York City flavor.
We’ve got her other performance for you after the jump, where she sings “Paparazzi.”
