Those
90's rockers
Green Day have the #1 album in the
country this week with "21st Century Breakdown"
but don't look for it "when
you come around" to Wal-Mart. Green
Day bid the retailer "good
riddance" after they insisted on
releasing a "clean
version" to it's customers. Why does
Wal-Mart censor CDs when they don't do the same
with movies or video games that have adult
content? Maybe it's because they know some
recording artists will do anything to
make a buck.
Like
the band
Queen, for example. Now that singer
Paul Rodgers has decided it's "all
right now" to
end his 5 year
"rock
and roll fantasy" with the band,
Queen are "under
pressure" to find their next payday.
Hey maybe they can hire American Idol finalist
Adam Lambert! Don't laugh, guitarist
Brian May
has already
hinted at
working with the "killer
queen" especially after their
performance together on this season's finale.
Well,
one queen who knows something about money is
Mariah Carey. This week
she spent thousands
of dollars just to "make
it happen"
for every member of her entourage so they could
attend the debut of her new movie "Precious" at
The Cannes Film Festival. The only one who
couldn't say "I'll
be there" was Mariah's hairdresser,
which reportedly sent the diva into a
panic!
How
could Mariah be so worried about her hair when
everyone got to see her as a
scruffy social
worker in the new movie? Maybe Mariah
will insist that Wal-Mart release a "cleaner"
version of her character when it comes time for
the DVD.
That's
it for Retro News. I'm Jenni Waylon for Retro
Rewind.
