Praise be! The Janelle Monáe/Electric Lady promo tour continues! This morning, the talented, stunning android made an appearance on The Today Show where she performed another show-stopping rendition of "Dance Apocolyptic," but not before commenting on how she hopes to be a positive influence on other women.
Janelle Monáe was on The Late Show With David Letterman last night to promote her new album The Electric Lady (out today!) and she performed so hard that the show was actually killed DEAD. Singing "Dance Apocalyptic," Monáe bashed up a microphone stand, danced on the desk and brought so much energy that even the…
Janelle Monae is streaming her entire new album, The Electric Lady, online, and it sounds amazing. So good. Guests include Erykah Badu, Solange, Miguel, Esperanza Spaulding, and Prince. Yes, PRINCE! So far the bubbly "Dance Apocalyptic" and the steam-funk soul "Givin' Em What They Love" are my favorites.
Here's what the stars were doing this week as they played paparazzi and turned the camera on themselves. Celebrity Instagrams (and maybe a Vine or two), presented without comment. Enjoy.
Last night on the red carpet at the BET Awards, there were pretty dresses, interesting shoes, creative hairdos and Meagan Good's nipples. Let us not delay.
When Janelle Monáe and Eryklah Badu teamed up for their video for the song "Q.U.E.E.N.", our own Madeleine Davies called it "possibly the most fun and stylish music video of all time." The pair have managed to up their cool factor 5000 percent by getting Prince himself to remix the song, which is basically like…
Have you ever watched a music video and thought "I want to live in that"? If not, get ready: Janelle Monáe and Erykah Badu have created what is possibly the most fun and stylish music video of all time. Just wait — tomorrow we'll all be sporting fringed tuxedos and streaks of red down our faces because that's the…
While she's been a lightning rod for claims of both feminism and anti-feminism (particularly since announcing her Mrs. Carter World Tour), Beyoncé has tended in the past to steer clear of the F-word that's put so many female celebrities in the hot seat. Until now, at least. Bey tells Vogue UK in a cover interview for…
No! The wonderfully batty, tipsy holy duo of Hoda and Kathie Lee are boiling with resentment thanks to that classic American triptych of greed, geography and sheer carnal impulse. (I may have thrown that third one in.) Apparently Kathie Lee has been lobbying to move Today to Los Angeles for quite some time, and her…
Despite the fact that CBS issued a memo warning not to show off breasts, buttocks, or any "puffy" bare skin, celebrities attending the 55th annual Grammy Awards last night embraced sheer fabrics, exposed breast curvature and even displayed nipples. That said, it wasn't a very exciting night for fashion; there were…
In this edition of Tweet Beat, Janelle Monáe gets an endorsement deal, Rihanna watches Saved by the Bell, Ellen gets "The Miley" and Kanye West hates small talk.

One of the least fun parts of being a lady is the constant barrage of media that insists that there are products to be purchased that might help you overcome your crushing lack of Pretty. A new survey reveals that while some women are internalizing this message, one group is rejecting en masse it and declaring…

This year's Grammy red carpet was so weird — and so weirdly entertaining — that designations like "good" and "bad" almost seem arbitrary. You'll have to be the judge...although in the case of Nicole Kidman, I'm guessing we'll reach consensus...
contrasted sparkle with drape. You know I love it when Kim goes…Once again, the stars give us a master-class in looking cool — or ludicrous — in frigid temps.
