Ay, mami! Demi Lovato led a cast of super hottie Latinas at last night's Grammy Awards that included Zoe Saldana, Sofia Vergara, Shakira, Paulina Rubio, and Adrienne Bailon, in a veritable panoply of sultry perfection.

But, for the moment, let us just focus on the return to hotness of Demi Lovato, a troubled beginning to her 2011 year, the semi-Mexi girl has made a sharp turn at the fork in the road back to Hottieville in the past few months, perhaps topped off by this top-revealing appearance at the Latin Grammy Awards. All I know is, the next time Demi Lovato calls me to ask me what she should wear out on our date to the Sizzler, I'm subtly mentioning the little number she wore to the Grammys. Muy sexual. Enjoy.

The MTV Europe Music Awards Almost Entirely Craptastic Save For A Patch of Sextastic

A couple months ago, I was trying to think about what could possibly be worse than the the MTV Music Awards, what with all the Jersey Shore pimping and Justin Bieber pretending to be lesbian gangsta and the shout-out to horribly craptastic pop music acts popular among young girls who wear scented lip gloss and whose high school ambition is to be invited to the Rainbow Party at Lisa's house. Well, I totally forgot about the MTV Europe Music Awards. Let's face it, Europe, you're pretty cool in so many areas. We respect your liberal views on sexuality and nudity, your regionally delicious cuisines, and the way you haven't told Greece to go eff itself quite yet, but when it comes to craptastic teeny bopper music, you may even have the ole U.S. beatdown in an auto-tuned showdown. Throw in the fact that MTV brought over some of its D-listers from America to complement the evening, and the MTV Europe Music Awards were a pure and unadulterated ode to the obnoxious.

That is, save for the hotties. Not much, oh, not much, but definitely some sporadic bits of super awesome, not the least of which were supermodel and finally get sexed again, Bar Refaeli, fellow international drop dead sexy bomb, Irina Shayk, J-Woww (okay, Jersey Shore but let's give it up for how they've made her over), Selena Gomez, and the more locally brewed hotness of Jennifer Metcalfe. Outside of this pocket of heat, not so much. Even the guy who streaked across the stage during the show was limp. Enjoy.

Alexandra Stan Brings Mr. Saxo-Bosom Down Austrian Way

Remember Alexandra Stan of Mr. Saxobeat fame this past summer -- the breakout dance hit that if you lived on the European continent you could not escape. Well, Ms. Stan from Romania has taken her bright shining fame light on a world tour, getting what she can while the getting is good. Alexandra was showing off her ample chest in a tight top at the K3 Disco in Austria the other evening, no doubt giving her rendition of the two to three songs she is known for. In any event, I doubt most men in attendance were paying attention to the music. Enjoy.

I don't think there's any real doubt here who has the tauter tummy, the scrumptious belly award goes to Selena Gomez for a a teen dream of a mid-body flesh that I'd like to dine off of nightly, while, Britney Spears, well, she's clearly been dining daily and nightly, yet, there's no denying she's exhibiting the flesh puppies that Selena simply does not posses.

As you know, I still applaud Britney for getting her lazy ass off the La-Z-Boy and making another go at the worldwide concert tour. Not exactly Brit of a decade ago, but she still seems to be drawing in decent venue sized of screaming girls and jiggling her funbags on stage. And that's a something. As for Selena Gomez, she's on the cusp of greatness, the beginning of the beginning of something very big, and if she drops that little midget anchor of hers, that takeoff will begin now. Enjoy.

Britney Spears Brings Out the Big Guns for Northern Europe (VIDEO)

I'll say this for Britney Spears, she kept all the outfits from her 2002 tour, though perhaps not the exact same body. Still, the more mature, full bodied version of the original young pop princess has been ramping up her Femme Fatale show internationally, traveling through the fjords of late to bring her boobs and pony show to the great tribes of Northern Europe, and still bringing tears to the eyes of many girls, and an occasional case of Norwegian wood along the way.

Say what you want about the effect of time and cheeseburgers upon Ole Brit, she's still got game. Enjoy.

(Be sure to check out the concert clip after the jump. I think it's a song called 'S&M' or something but it seems to be about riding bikes, but mostly just check out Britney close-up on stage flashing her cans.)

Zach vs. Rock ‘n’ Roll: Albums as Stories

By Jon | October 6, 2011 @ 11:01 am

Word on the street is that the album is dead. The music industry and its Internet-savvy consumers have joined forces to bludgeon hour-long opuses into submission, leaving only oh-so-shufflable iTunes singles, remixes and a slim variety of hastily packaged, generally forgettable morsels. (R.I.P., Steve Jobs, on that iTunes reference, it's not such a bad invention.)

September’s deluge of outstanding new LPs helped me remember something: Albums tell stories. Single songs are capable of spinning their own yarns (i.e. Boy Dylan's The Hurricane), but a full-length album, crafted with cohesion and care, tells a story like no other medium can.

Rihanna Takes Her Naughty Act to London’s O2 Arena

Rihanna Rated R Tour Hits the O2 Arena in London

I'll have to hand it to Rihanna. She has managed to out-naughty-hustle pretty much every other female music act this summer on her world tour (save maybe for terrible teen Taylor Momsen, natch) with her dolled up, dressed down, touch-your-badself-all-over 'Rated R' concert tour. Some folks like her music, some do not. But there's no doubt that Rihanna flashing most all of her body and fondling her lovely bits in the manner of a woman on the make -- well, that's just downright fun and naughty. Congratulations, Rihanna, you have taken the cake and eaten it too. Enjoy.
