Miley Cyrus Set to Appear on MTV's "Unplugged"

MTV is reporting that pop-tart twerker Miley Cyrus will be featured on "MTV Unplugged," the popular music series that showcases musicians and singers doing acoustic sets. The event is going to air Jan. 29, 2014 according to MTV.

Amy Doyle, MTV's executive VP of music and talent programming strategy said "Miley’s  vision for the performance is like nothing we've ever seen," "I can say that this will easily be one of the most memorable 'Unplugged' performances to date." That means surprise special guest artists as well as "intimate reinventions" of "Bangerz" tracks, according to MTV.

"Unplugged" used to be considered one of the network's more acclaimed shows in the 90s. It debuted in Nov '89 and then proceeded to showcase artists like Paul McCartney, Nirvana, Mariah Carey, Bob Dylan, Hole and Alanis Morissette. Quite a few entertainers launched recorded albums of their "Unplugged" stints that proceeded to be major hits on the Billboard albums chart.  The modern version,"Unplugged 2.0," airs much less often than the series used to in the 90's. The series has featured Korn, Lil Wayne, Alicial Keys, Florence and the Machine and more.

There are no reports on what exactly Cyrus' show will entail. Based on the appearance of the PR photos made public alongside the announcement for the event, the "Wrecking Ball" singer might possibly display her well-known style to the acoustic stage. The image posted next to Cyrus' Instagram features the performer topless while sporting pasties, fake buck teeth and a blond wig.  Hmmm Interesting!

Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt Blew Through $10 Million Dollars WTF?

Former stars of the popular MTV show "The Hills",  Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt were the couple that everyone used to love to hate. Today we learned they blew through their fortune in only a few short years. HOW? According to In Touch magazine, Spencer admitted they were "immature" with their spending issues, often ordering $4000 dinners while going out to eat. In addition, Heidi was going to the mall and dropping 20K $30K PER DAY. WHAT? PER DAY? I guess celebrities blowing through their often sudden fortune and becoming bankrupt is nothing new. Now they are in talks to possible get another tv show. Wow. WHY in the WORLD are these people being rewarded for their lack of ability to control their money with another TV show? Didn't they learn their lesson? I think not. The whole branding through reality tv shows and these people making big bucks for doing nothing infuriates me. The sad part is there is enough people out there that would watch and follow them on a new tv show and they will just make another few million. SOo not fair! 

Simon Cowell makes "Cutting" joke in front of Demi Lovato

Apparently Simon Cowell made a comment to X-Factor contestant Jeff Gutt that is offending many Demi Lovato fans. With good reason!  When Paulina Rubio told contenstant Jeff Gutt to "show me that blood," Simon joked "She wants you to stab yourself next week". Demi Lovato has admitted in the past she has had a problem with cutting. While I did not see the show, I DO know that Simon has never been one to censor himself. I don't think he did it on purpose but it was very insensitive. Cutting and depression is a serious problem with today's youth. He probably didn't think of it when he was talking. Simon is Simon. He put his foot in his mouth and should probably apologize. Cutting is nothing to joke about.
