Boyband bares all



The boys from UK boy band VICE (yep, looks like the boy band craze will be returning once again... is that a bad thing?) decided to bare all for GT (Gay Times) magazine in the January 2010 issue. They have their sights set on stealing the current title of top boy band (in the UK) from JLS, and it looks like they are headin' to the gays to accomplish this mission. We will definatley be keeping our eyes peeled for more photo opts from these boys.

Annie - Songs Remind Me Of You

Norway born Annie calls her sophomore album, Don't Stop, “pop with strange edges”. It's mainstream and underground, all at once. Here's the first video from the album (although the first single is Don't Stop)... can't wait to see what she does for I Don't Like Your Band (my personal fave).
