Miley Cyrus Relies on Teleprompter on Bangerz Tour

 

While many aging artists rely on teleprompters to help them remember to say things or their

 lyrics or for other assorted cues during live concerts, Miley Cyrus, who is just 21 and in the 

prime of her life, was seen making use of the device during her Bangerz Tour.

While Cyrus’ has taken heat for her show’s sexualized content and for making out with fans and 

Katy Perry, the notion of using a teleprompter is decidedly less scandalous. It’s more or less 

surprising, but not hugely so.

A concert goer told Radar Online, “I was at Miley’s Vegas concert and took these pictures

 because I couldn’t believe she needed a teleprompter with lyrics to all of her songs throughout 

the entire concert. And it’s not like they were just there for nothing — I caught her looking at 

them more than a few times!”

Ease up, Smilers, ease up. It’s not like she was concealing her support system, so to speak.

In the twerker’s defense, there is a lot going on during her concert. Songs! Costume changes! 

Fan interaction! Banter! So she might need a little visual boost to keep it all straight. Go to the

 show and have some fun regardless

I Can’t Stop Thinking About Jared Leto’s Hair

Just one week ago, I was standing at a Brooklyn bar waiting for the surly bar mistress to notice me, when I realized that maybe half of the guys in the room had long hair. And I was really hot for it.

Let me back up. I grew up in the kind of hippie college town where long hair on men was basically de rigueur. But they all either looked like Daniel Day-Lewis circa The Last of the Mohicans or wore it pulled back in a low ponytail. Either way, I’m pretty sure neither conditioner nor Shu Uemura Essence Absolue was involved. So my version of rebellion was to lust after shorthaired guys. This was the era of Dylan McKay’s pompadour on Beverly Hills, 90210, after all.

Around that same time, I watched My So-Called Life, which aired its one and only season—cry with me in solidarity right now, if you desire—during my senior year of high school. Jared Leto played Jordan Catalano, the show’s illiterate, choker-wearing love interest. I spent a lot of time in 1994, as I do in 2014, thinking about boys, and after some amount of rumination I came to the decision that Jordan was just sort of… okay? I liked the romantic moments of the show, but his blankness and that mid-length hair and shearling jacket definitely did not do it for me.

In the ensuing years, I didn’t think much of Jared Leto. I was vaguely aware that he was in a corny band and seemed to have a deft hand with eyeliner. Does he date models? He seemed like the kind of guy who dated models.

But I’m here to tell you now, that I take it all back. Something changed in me this year. I’m not sure if it's the emergence of his perfect hair or the fact that he seemingly doesn’t age or just the general case of extended adolescence/extreme spring fever I seem to suffer from, but I am so into Jared Leto right now.

When I think of having sex with Jared Leto, which, given his awards season ubiquity, is often, it pretty much centers around his luscious ombre hair sort of making its way down and brushing my body and getting tangled in my limbs and my own blonde hair. I have visited his editorial from Flauntabout five times a day—last night I had to get out my phone to show a group of friends. The golden skin! The piercing eyes! The right amount of facial hair! The Saint Laurent! But most of all, that perfect hair. My fixation with him is only increasing as the Oscars approach. Will he wear a bun or will it be long and loose?

I know that Jared is still in the kind of band I couldn’t even pretend to be interested in and still probably dates models, or at least not semi-hermit writers old enough to be a fellow child of the 90s like me, but that’s where Brooklyn’s new crop of men with luscious hair come in. I’m here to say that I currently own six different kinds of conditioner. And I’m sure we could learn a lot from each other.

Zac Efron Wants To Hook Up!

So as you know Zac Efron has a new movie coming out called "That Awkward Moment" and during an interview promoting the film Zac talked about "hooking up" - Ladies I think you're going to like this. 

First Glamour Magazine asked Zac what he thinks about hooking up on the first date

“Sex is a beautiful thing. I don’t object.”

When asked how he meets girls Zac responded with

“I haven’t met a girl properly ever.” - “I think the most important thing for me in a relationship is honesty. In the beginning, sometimes girls don’t show their genuine personality.”

So what is the most awkward thing about dating?

“The awkward thing for me is when the realization happens that I actually might like this girl. Then I become awkward.”

Ariana Grande on... COSMOPOLITAN COVER !

Grande, who looks sexy and sweet in a belly-baring, strappy black bra top and flirty skirt on her cover, shared the crucial deets of their first date, which will make you melt. Little Nath was a total sweetheart of the bring-him-home-to-mom sort.

ARIANA GRANDE COVERS COSMO, REVEALS ROMANTIC FIRST DATE WITH NATHAN SYKES

Ariana Grande covers the February issue of Cosmopolitan, out Jan. 7, and the feature reveals the swoon-worthy details of her first date with her (possibly ex) boyfriend Nathan Sykes of the Wanted.

The interview should confuse Nariana shippers that are defending the couple’s status, since the rumors that the duo broke up this month have been swirling for the past 10 days with lots of online drama, a strange interview and zero confirmation for either Ariana or Nathan one way or the other.

“We were going back to his hotel to watch a movie, and he had Ladurée macarons and sunflowers waiting — I love Parisian baked goods, and sunflowers are my favorite flower,” Grande shared. OMG! Adorbs!

But wait, there’s more.

Sykes was such a gentleman that Grande confessed, “He had taken the DVD player out of the bedroom and into the living room, because he said he didn’t want to take me into the bedroom on the first date.”

We can’t even…we’re totally melting over here.

Now, this interview obviously happened while Nariana were still definitely “on” but it’s worth nothing that either of their PR reps could have politely requested that the mag not release those specific quotes early to help promote the cover if the couple had split.

Even if such a request was handed down, the mag can share whatever quotes it pleases in advance of the issue hitting the newsstand.

Also, this weekend, Sykes unfollowed Grande in the social media space, then tweeted (and deleted) that he had been hacked. Grande also responded to that incident, saying that there was no drama and that a hacking block caused him to unfollow her.

She posted: “I think I was blocked by some hacker on his account but nothing drama worthy. Focused on family, work and you guys. Love U.”

Despite fans begging for some sort of update, neither Grande nor Sykes provided one. Notice Ari speaks of work, family and fans, not her BF. That’s a little worrisome and it’s causing Nariana shippers to lose their minds and fill in gaps to try and come up with an answer, since they don’t have the full complement of information.

We think that either they are nursing broken hearts or choosing to remain intensely private about their relationship (and its status) right now.

Grande’s quotes in Cosmo attest to the latter. She has deal with her fair share of tweet heat and does not even bother to block haters and keyboard ninjas.

“Oh, they’re evil as hell,” she said. “I don’t even block them anymore, because I feel like it’s giving them negativity in return. So I just let it happen and forgive them and move on. Those people are fighting their own battles.”

Amen, sister!

The ‘Honeymoon Avenue’ singer called her herself a “boring, normal girl,” saying she likes “Harry Potter and to sit in [my] pajamas and sing.” She doesn’t make out with girls every minute that a camera fixates on her a la Miley Cyrus.

“A lot of my friends are partiers, but I’ve never really clicked with that,” Grande also said. “I like Barbra Streisand, and when was the last time you saw Babs getting, like, turnt up? That’s kind of the road that I, as a lady, would like to go down.”

She’s so cute, right? No wonder Little Nath fell head over heels.

Take that Miley, who recently criticized Grande’s adorbs sweetness and her wholesome image and style.

“People often mistake my kindness for weakness, and they didn’t expect much from me, because at the end of the day, I’m just a nice Italian girl from Boca,” Grande declared.

A nice Italian girl with a gentlemanly British chap!

Again, there’s still no confirm as to whether Nariana split or not. They’ve refused to comment. So until we hear it from them, we’ll hope the pair is happy, romantic and cute! How could we not! That first date… our hearts are swollen with OMG-ness!

PopCrush continues to monitor the Nariana sitch.

Miley On Joe Jonas...

So Miley Cyrus sat down with The New York Times and had a lot of interesting things to say…first she talked about the image people use to have of her

“I went from people just thinking I was, like, a baby to people thinking I’m this, like, sex freak that really just pops molly and does lines all day.”

Miley admits she’s a bit taken back by the backlash…

“It’s like, ‘Has anyone ever heard of rock ’n’ roll?’ There’s a sex scene in pretty much every single movie, and they go, ‘Well, that’s a character.’ Well, that’s a character,” - “I don’t really dress as a teddy bear and, like, twerk on Robin Thicke, you know?”

So what about that comment Joe Jonas said about his first time smoking marijuana with Demi and Miley…

“If you want to smoke weed, you’re going to smoke weed,” says Cyrus. “There’s nothing that two little girls are going to get you to do that you don’t want to do. I thought maybe he was saying that like it was going to make him look badass.”

But it doesn’t mean Miley wants kids to think Drugs are cool and that it’s for everyone.

“I’ve got a little sister. I don’t want her to smoke weed, and it’s not because I think weed is bad, but [she'll make the choice when she's old enough].”

MONDAYS OF ...HEARTACHE!

4 Breakup Rules for Dumpers and Dumpees

Breakups: They're an emotional time for everyone. Let’s agree on a few ground rules, shall we? 

Katy Perry moved on after her public breakup with Russell Brand.

Rules for Dumpers
You’re over him. Here’s how to deliver the news nicely:
1. Never end a relationship via text message. You’re better than Russell Brand! A breakup should be at least slightly harder to initiate than a game of Words With Friends.

2. Don’t say you “want space” when you really just want to break up. Actually, never say you “want space,” period. If that’s what you want, move to the country.

3. In your actual breakup conversation, focus on the big picture. Pick the top two or three reasons things aren’t working and stick to them. His playing air guitar in public doesn’t need to come into this.

4. Be kind. Be honest. Be respectful. Be unavailable. As bad as you feel, you are the very last person your former beau should be leaning on to process this breakup—and you might have to be the one who enforces this rule.

Rules for Dumpees
So. The worst has happened. Here’s what to do now:
1. Write all the angry emails you want. Don’t send them. Also, resist the urge to post rants about your ex where the world (or at least all of Reddit) can see it. Remember, he has your secrets and could do the same.

2. Disconnect as completely as you can. Take his number out of your phone. Don’t go to “his” bar. Don’t read his Twitter. Don’t check his Facebook. See, not so bad, right?

3. Keep any “sex with the ex” in perspective. It doesn’t mean you’re back together or that you’re weak. It happened. It happens. If it’s happening too much, see the previous rule.

4. Remember this isn’t your only relationship. Your loved ones were there for you before you met this guy, and they are there for you now. Lean on them. And forgive, even if you can’t forget. That whole letting-go-of-anger thing feels pretty good.
