  • Pharrell and Janelle Monáe are both per­form­ing at the NBA All Star game later this month. (That Grape Juice)
  • Lily Allen’s just above average song from the Girls soundtrack is now online. (Popjustice)
  • As is the slightly odd video for ‘Air Balloon’. (Popjustice)
  • Selena Gomez’s recent stint in rehab was part of “project wellness” an insider has said. (Billboard)
  • Charli XCX is on the new Iggy Azalea single and that’s now on the internet having been played on the radio last night. (Popjustice)
  • Addison Lee have given One Direction free taxi rides for a year after Louis tweeted reminding them of their mention on ‘Midnight Memories’. (Mirror)
  • Beyoncé’s got a range of underwear because, well, of course she has. (THE LINE OF BEST FIT.)
  • Rudimental have asked fans to ignore messages being sent out asking them to be in their new video because they’re not from an official source or something. (BBC Newsbeat)

  • Here’s a bit of what might be a new Ed Sheeran song. (Instagram)
  • Bastille are head­lining a festival in Newquay! (BBC Newsbeat)
  • The snog-heavy video for Annie’s anti-Putin song ‘Russian Kiss’ is now online. (Popjustice) CAUTION: CONTAINS GAYS.
  • Here are the forty most down­loaded Madonna songs in the UK. (Official Charts Company) It's bad news for 'Hanky Panky'.

  • Here’s a picture of Miley Cyrus sitting on a giant hot dog. (Twitter)
