- Star Spotting: Don't Forget, Joe Jonas Is An Adorable Older Brother
Joe Jonas and younger brother Frank share a Slurpee.
How do we love Joe Jonas? Let us count the ways. Just when you thought the dude was all about taking his shirt off in public and dating Brazilian models, Joe took the time out on Twitter to remind us that he's also a big brother! Joe and Bonus Jonas (little bro Frankie) did their best "Zoolander" impressions with a couple of Slurpees recently, and we're currently getting this photo blown up to poster size. Joe tweeted, "Slurpee time with Frank the tank," and we died. "Frank the tank." OMG.
We're hoping we get to see more of "Frank the tank" on Kevin Jonas' new reality show "Married To Jonas." If he's anything like his brothers, he's hilarious, talented and we kind of want to marry him. But we think we'll have to wait a few years.

Переслать - Album Premiere: Silversun Pickups, 'Neck Of The Woods'
It's been a minute or three since we've heard from L.A.'s Silversun Pickups. In 2009, the band's sophomore album, Swoon, notched them a Best New Artist Grammy nomination -- and we're thinking their triumphant new set Neck Of The Woods should score them some actual hardware. The band's time in the lab has been spent mastering the dark art of loud/quiet/loud like an indie Voldemort: the album begins with the quiet build of "Skin Graph," which goes from a guitar stroll to a ragged, blistering sprint. The rest of the album follows suit, with spiky electric guitars stabbing their way through songs such as "Busy Bees" and "Mean Spirits" in between prettier moments.
Listen to Silversun Pickups' Neck Of The Woods album after the jump.
Silversun Pickups' Smashing Pumpkins vibes haven't faded, but this time around, the band's iPod's on shuffle: "Here We Are (Chancer)" floats with a Radiohead-like bassline and drum programming, while with its downcast guitar riff, "Make Believe" opens like blink-182's "Adam's Song." Single "Bloody Mary (Nerve Endings)" swerves between dizzying shoegaze and peeling back the layers to let singer Brian Aubert's raw vocals tear through. He's in fierce form throughout, matching shark-sized hooks to dead-serious lyrics: "This is not a game for me/ I might've lost my mind," he sings on "Make Believe."
Despite his warnings, we think Neck Of The Woods sounds more like a big win. The album's due May 8 on Dangerbird Records. Dig in below.

Переслать - Video Premiere: Chrystian, 'Get It In'
Watch up-and-coming R&B crooner Chrystian's hot new video, 'Get It In.'
Nineteen-year-old "Buzz On" alum Chrystian is about to get real famous, which is why we're thrilled to be able to premiere the new video for his track "Get It In" (hairflip!). Chrystian's an imposing triple-threat who can write, dance, and sing. And it doesn't hurt that dude's real easy on the eyes, too.
Chrystian sounds like a mix between Chris Brown, Usher and Jason Derulo, and these big-time comparisons were instantly confirmed when we saw how swagged-out he gets in his "Get It In" video. Shot in Los Angeles, "Get It In" was directed by the famed Ryan Pallotta and choreographed by internationally acclaimed choreographer Luam (Beyonce, Rihanna, Britney Spears). If that's not enough to impress, then let us alert you to the fact that Ashley Everett, the featured dancer in "Get It In," was also one of the dancers in Beyonce's "Single Ladies." Helps to have all the right friends.
Watch Chrystian's "Get It In" video after the jump. "Get It In" is an uptempo pop-n-B banger that serves as the perfect backdrop for Chrystian to showcase his effortless dance moves. Set in an abandoned warehouse, the video primarily features shots of Chrystian and his troupe of dancers killing the choreography and looking totally chill while doing so. As the video comes to a close, not only does Chrystian keep his cool in the rain, but you're left kinda unsure if you've just watched Chrystian or the latest Usher video. (Like, it was actually confusing at times.) Nothing but big things ahead for this one, guys!

Переслать - Star Spotting: Rihanna Walks The Streets Of NYC Without Makeup, Still A Beauty Queen
Rihanna walks the streets of New York with no makeup on and STILL looks that good.
If we saw Rihanna rollin' down the streets of New York City au naturel, we'd immediately approach her (after hyperventilating) to ask the following: First, "What skin regimen are you on?" Next, "What planet are you really from because NO ONE in this universe can be that naturally perfect!" Then we'd beg her to be our BFF until probably getting arrested for refusing to let go of her leg until she gave us the answers we wanted. Annnnd, welcome to our imagination.
If the new video for "Where Have You Been" didn't remind you that Ri's beautiful at any angle ever, seeing this pic of her confidently strut the streets of the Big Apple wearing nothing on her face but a smile will definitely prove it. But don't think that just because Rihanna's ideal in our eyes means she doesn't have insecurities of her own. In a recent interview, the "Battleship" actress mentioned that she was jealous of costar Brooklyn Decker's boobs! Not that we're looking at 'em (we're just reading the words on Ri's shirt...), but we're pretty sure Rihanna has no nothing to be embarrassed about. Those guys chasing after her in the background, however, should probably be embarrassed, but we really can't blame them.

Переслать - New Video: Chiddy Bang, 'Mind Your Manners'
We've been ready for Chiddy Bang to release their "Mind Your Manners" video ever since they slayed their performance of the song at the mtvU Woodies Awards Festival. And happily, that day has arrived! The lighthearted, summer-ready jam features a sample from Swedish group Icona Pop, which makes Chiddy's new tune perfect for driving around with the top down or getting your rage on at the first BBQ of the summer.
Watch Chiddy Bang "Mind Your Manners" after the jump.
Chiddy's "Mind Your Manners" video is one huge effing party that we realllly wish we'd have been invited to. In the Tim Nackashi-directed clip, Chiddy Bang find their way into a warehouse full of crazy ish. There are peeps wearing giant-plush rabbit heads (WTF) and a bunch of other peeps wearing pastel masks and holding video cameras. (Extremely normal.) The warehouse rager continues, and not only do Chiddy perform a live set in the middle of the room, but a giant dance party unfolds and confirms this to be the most random (yet dopest) collection of people we've ever seen.
If you're looking for a real-life version of this video, then make sure you check out Chiddy Bang's "Under The Influence Of Music Tour," also featuring professional partiers Wiz Khalifa and Mac Miller. 'Cause you and I both know that the "Mind Your Manners" video is mad tame compared to what's gonna go down on tour. Just sayin.'

Adam Lambert shares his 10 various and sundry obsessions.
Should you ever find yourself in a position where you're dating Adam Lambert (suspend your disbelief and dream big) and you're at that point where things are going like, really well, and you want to have one of those early-relationship (somewhere between month 1 through 3) "I've actually really been paying attention to all of the adorable things you say like, and I wanna prove that I remembered those things so you know how seriously into you I am" stay-home dates, I've essentially created a shopping list of things Adam loves via the vehicle of Buzzworthy's "10 Things I'm Obsessed With" video.
+ Check out 10 Things Adam Lambert Is Obsessed With after the jump!
So, if you're shopping for your thoughtfulness date with Adam, you're gonna be busy both downloading various forms of entertainment and running to the grocery store for... kale. He's just as obsessed with the cruciferous veggie as he is with disco naps (priceless!) and the seminal glam rock movie "Velvet Goldmine." You might wanna have several seasons of "Breaking Bad" in your Netflix queue, because Adam Lambert is obsessed with that show. And please be patient if, during your date, Adam Lambert keeps reaching for his iPhone (obsessed!) -- he's probably just checking Twitter, which he's -- yep -- obsessed with. And his Rick Owens boots? We're pretty obsessed too, so we can't blame him. Oh, and for date-y background music, consider investing in Adam's new album, Trespassing, when it drops on May 15, because he's pretty obsessed with that, too. (That makes all of us.)
Check out 10 Things Adam Lambert Is Obsessed With, plan your date accordingly, and may the odds be ever in your favor, Glamberts.

Переслать - The Buzz On: Chrystian
Get involved with up-and-coming R&B crooner Chrystian.
Columbus, Ohio, native Chrystian may be the next Usher, guys. And no, we're not exaggerating even a little. At only 19-years-old, the kid can sing, dance, write, and most importantly, he's got swagger on a million trillion. Passionate about music since early childhood, Chrystian was singing and dancing in talent shows as early as first grade. And then while the rest of us were busy drinking juice boxes and learning our multiplication tables in third grade, Chrystian was off winning his first songwriting award. It's always the mini-ballers that come out on top, isn't it?
Read more about Chrystian after the jump.
Cut to present day: Chrystian is poised to become the next big thing. He's already worked with top producers including Oak (Mario) and the Jackie Boyz (Jennifer Lopez, Cee-Lo), and he was also handpicked to fly to L.A. and work with platinum-selling Grammy-winning production duo Midi Mafia. (Jealousy is expected and accepted.)
Vocally, Chrystian reminds us of a mix between Chris Brown, Usher and Jason Derulo, and unsurprisingly, his records have hooks for days. Chrystian's radio-ready ballad "Something About You" not only sounds like it could be a No. 1 smash, but also it shows off Chrystian's incredibly swoon-worthy vocals: "From the moment that I wake up/ All I think about is you/ I can't fight it/ It's the truth/ ...You're the healer of my pain/ And I won't let you go away."
A dope singer, songwriter and clearly the best boyfriend ever? Where does this gal sign? If you haven't had your Chrystian fill for the week, then be on the lookout for his video "Get It In," premiering tomorrow right here on Buzzworthy!

Переслать - Little Boots, Niki & The Dove, Marina And The Diamonds + More: 5 Must-Hear Pop Songs Of The Week
It's Tuesday! Time for another round of "5 Must-Hear Pop Songs of the Week"!
This week's roundup includes an almighty anthem from my favorite album of the year (so far!), some electro-folk tribal Swedish quirkiness, boy band jubilee and certifiable bangas from a few of my favorite dance floor divas.
Let us all now join hands and dance around the maypole -- it's May Day, y'all!
1.) Marina + The Diamonds, "Sex Yeah"
Let it be known: Every single second of Marina And The Diamonds' delightfully devious second studio effort, Electra Heart (which was released this week in the U.K.), is essentially free of all flaws. "Sex Yeah," one of the deluxe tracks from the album, is one of the strongest songs from the entire era, as Marina serves some scalding hot truth tea: "If women were religiously recognized sexually/ We wouldn't have to feel the need to show our ass-ets to feel free," the Greek-Welsh goddess sagely declares.
Wait, I'm confused: Why hasn't she mentioned a club yet? Where are the bottles being popped? Surely there's at least one mention of getting sexy lady on the floor? No? Just a solid, rocking electro-pop anthem about gender and society? I'm scared -- and yet I'm dancing! Smart pop! Weird feelings inside!
+ LISTEN TO MARINA AND THE DIAMONDS, "SEX YEAH"
Listen to more Must-Hear Pop Songs Of The Week after the jump!
2.) Little Boots, "Every Night I Say A Prayer"
Back in November, U.K. electro-pop vixen-turned-full-fledged disco diva Little Boots dropped her legendary 6-minute opus "Shake," a slice of early '90s house realness co-crafted with Simian Mobile Disco's James Ford. Now Miss Boots is back with yet another delicious beat: "Every Night I Say A Prayer," which was written alongside Hercules & Love Affair's Andy Butler. Along with some strange, ambient whooshing noises and a gorgeous piano-led melody, the chanteuse once again explores the dance floor vibes from yesteryear: "I have seen into the future/ I want you to take me there," she coos during the chorus.
Throw in a few stuttering Euro-pop beat breakdowns ("I-I-I know where we're going!" -- pure early '90s Kylie Minogue!), and you've got yourself yet another throwback-turned-timeless dance tune from an album that's quickly shaping up to be one of 2012's most killer records.
+ LISTEN TO LITTLE BOOTS, "EVERY NIGHT I SAY A PRAYER"
3.) Niki & The Dove, "DJ, Ease My Mind"
Apart from Marina And The Diamonds, the only other thing I've been listening to on repeat constantly is Swedish electro-duo Niki & The Dove's fabulously strange/magical (stragical?) debut, Instinct. It's like a cross between The Knife and Stevie Nicks, full of pulsing tribal beats, pulsing beats and whimsical vocals.
"DJ, Ease My Mind," the lead single from the record in the U.K., is nothing short of a masterpiece. Originally released two years ago (!), the track saw a re-release in the U.K. after the group signed to Mercury Records and came in at fifth place on the BBC's Sound of 2012, and deservedly so: "DJ, ease my mind/ Play that song again because we were in love," lead singer XX sadly declares above a thundering drum beat, swallowed up in weird noises and distant humming. It's like a more emotionally devastating, experimental take on Robyn's "Dancing On My Own," yet just as amazingly Swedish and perfect.
+ LISTEN TO NIKI & THE DOVE, "DJ, EASE MY MIND"
4.) The Wanted, "Satellite"
When they're not busy landing in hot water for saying not-so-nice things about Queen Christina Aguilera (better known by her birth name, Legendtina) after their appearance on "The Voice," my bad British boyfriends from The Wanted spent last week celebrating the release of their debut North American EP, The Wanted EP. (Where do they come up with this stuff?) The mini-album comes chock-full of certifiable smashes, bangas and jams, including U.K. No. 1 singles "All Time Low" and "Glad You Came," as well as their current single, "Chasing The Sun." The other brand-new cut from the record, "Satellite," is a complete and utter TUNE.
Produced by Ryan Tedder, the space jam (see what I did there?) finds the boys stuck in a throbbing tunnel of tranced-out synthesizers: "Like a satellite/ I don't want to come down, I just want your love now," they declare above the surging beats. With all this intergalactic fixation ("Chasing The Sun"? "Rocket"?), perhaps the boys should take a cue from fellow boy-bander Lance Bass and start those astronaut training lessons. I hear Jupiter is lovely this time of year.
+ LISTEN TO THE WANTED, "SATELLITE"
5.) Eva Simons, "I Don't Like You"
Eva Simons, the incredible mohawked songstress behind Afrojack's 2011 summertime smash "Take Over Control," is about to make a serious breakthrough on her own. After making waves in 2009 (ancient!) with her debut single, "Silly Boy" (which everyone thought was a Rihanna song), the dance floor chanteuse has returned with her latest sizzler, "I Don't Like You." The song positions Simons as a full-on dance-pop princess in her own right. "I've gone cold/ In the heart!" she screams out on the utterly explosive chorus.
While the song's already been out for a hot minute, the accompanying music video for the track just premiered last weekend. The clip follows the scorned songstress and a couple of her good pals as they start chucking furniture out from her old apartment and onto the street below -- along with some nice glam shots against a sea of disco lights, obviously. It's maybe the most glamorous demolition crew I've ever witnessed.

Переслать - Lady Gaga Rides A Mechanical Horse During The 'Born This Way Ball' In Korea, Obvs (PHOTO)
Lady Gaga rides a mechanical horse during the opening of her 'Born This Way Ball' in South Korea.
Before you start wondering if Lady Gaga toned down her "Born This Way Ball" tour performance to cater to the many South Koreans who were slightly nervous about her visit, we can answer you with a verrry firm "Nope!" Gaga opened the show via the only logical entrance (well, in Gaga-logic) -- she rode in on a giant mechanical horse!
Judging by the photo taken on the "Marry The Night" singer's BTWB set, we're thinking Gaga's been spending some of her travel time catching up on the dramatic scenes in "War Horse"? Maybe Gaga's mane event isn't exactly giving off the whole "epic World War I tale that tells the emotional story of a beautiful stallion who must part from his owner to be of service in the war" vibe, but these types of metaphors help us understand Gaga better... so please let us be.
While we're not sure what inspired her latest horse moment, we're just incredibly relieved that Mother Monster chose to leave that egg thingy she arrived in at the Grammys last year parked in the garage -- that ish still keeps us up at night.
