ABC/Christopher Willard Over the years, Katy Perry has worn some eye-popping outfits: Just her American Idol wardrobe alone is pretty vast, not to mention some of the get-ups she's worn on stage. And Katy says one day, she hopes to pass some of those clothes onto her daughter, Daisy Dove. "I think about it all the time," Katy told POPSUGAR, noting that Daisy will get "carte blanche" to raid her closet. "I do a lot of cleanups, but I do have some stuff always that I'm thinking about." Katy explained that ever since learned she would be the mother of a daughter, she's wanted to share her ensembles with Daisy, noting, "I need them to go somewhere. I want them to be worn again." However, there's always a chance that Katy's brightly colored, over-the-top looks won't sit well with Daisy's personal style. "[Daisy will] probably just be goth, and like, 'No, Mom, thanks,'" Katy joked. Daisy will turn a year old in August. In December, Katy will..

Billboard Music Awards 2021 via Getty Images One of the standout live performances on Sunday night's Billboard Music Awards came from The Weeknd, who sang "Save Your Tears" as 20 matching cars drove behind him, next to him and around him in complicated, synchronized patterns. Now we're learning just what went into pulling off that stunt. The segment's director, Alex Lill, tells Billboard that in coming up with the idea of cars driving in patterns, he was inspired by "those old 1950s synchronized swimmers." The segment's writer, Charlie Morse, worked with a stunt coordinator who put together a 21-person team of stunt drivers who rehearsed with the cars for 16 hours prior to the performance. Meanwhile, producer Brendan Garrett had to find 20 identical vintage cars in red and white, in four to five days. He ended up having to find them all individually online, because none of the companies that provide cars to movies could fill the bill. A NASCAR mechanic team had ..

Andrew Lipovsky/NBC Lil Nas X’s SNL performance of “Montero (Call Me By Your Name)” almost got a little too sexy for live TV when the singer split his pants down the crotch during his pole dancing routine. During an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon Monday night, Lil Nas re-lived the embarrassing wardrobe malfunction and explained what happened. "I'm pretty much going down the pole, doing my little sexy drop down and boom, I feel air," he told Jimmy. "I'm like 'Okay, there's definitely a breeze going on.' And I also felt some popping still happening while I was down there." He added, "You know what the worst part is? At the end of the performance the dancers are supposed to touch me and tug on me and they were tugging on the pants. I was like, 'Please God, no.” Thankfully, Lil Nas X was able to keep covered until the end of the performance. But that wasn’t the only snag he dealt with that week. He told Jimmy that he rehearsed with hi..

Kevin Winter/Getty Images for Coachella What do Halsey, Khalid, Benny Blanco and Ed Sheeran all have in common? They're reportedly all being sued for allegedly stealing the 2018 hit song "Eastside." While Halsey, Khalid and Benny were the performers of the song, Ed is included in the lawsuit because he co-wrote "Eastside." According to TMZ, which obtained the court documents, the lawsuit was filed by Konstantine Lois and Shane Williams, who claim that "Eastside" sounds eerily similar to a song they wrote in 2015 for Williams' band American XO, titled "Loveless." They're suing the stars, as well as the labels which distributed the song, for copyright infringement. TMZ says in the suit, Lois and Williams point out the various similarities in the notes and overall melody of the two tracks. They also note that in an interview with Vibe, Benny Blanco once said he listens to a dozen or so new artists daily in hopes of finding inspiration. It's this practice that ..

The "Honey I'm Good" singer attests that his 13-month-old daughter is "totally fine" and is already trying to get into even more trouble. Although Grammer, 37, didn't reveal how Izzy sustained second-degree burns on her hand, he did explain on Instagram that his little one hasn't quite figured out what is and is not a good idea to investigate. Sharing a photo of the two waiting at the emergency room, with Izzy's left hand bandaged in gauze, the Dancing with the Stars alum is photographed shoving his foot against the electrical socket while his daughter is tearfully turning toward the camera.

Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images Ryan Fischer says he is still struggling to come to terms with being shot after armed robbers ambushed him on a walk and stole two of Lady Gaga's French bulldogs. Taking to Instagram Monday, Fisher expressed frustration that he is constantly reminded that he was injured in the violent altercation. Explaining that people will approach him and point out that he was shot, Fischer remarked, "It’s a strange thing to be known for a trauma that I’m still healing from." While he understands the remarks are coming from a good place and that the"support and well wishes have been incredible," he explained the remarks cause him to "relive" that painful moment of his life again and complicate his recovery process. "Along with the media attention and trauma recovery, I am - for the first time in a very long time - without purpose, which has been the hardest part of this chapter," he revealed, explaining that the trauma has left him unable to perform his respons..

The clip features Nick Jonas and his brother Joe trading lead vocals -- Nick while sitting alone on a subway train for the first verse and Joe strolling down a deserted street for the second. They're joined by Kevin Jonas and collaborator Marshmello for the chorus, which goes, “Dancing on the edge ’bout to take it too far/ It’s messing with my head how I mess with your heart,” they harmonize. “If you wake up in your bed, alone in the dark/ I’m sorry/ Gotta leave before you love me.” This summer, the group will embark on their Remember This U.S. tour, beginning on August 20 at Park Theater in Las Vegas.

Travis Schneider Maroon 5 will appear on tonight's finale of The Voice, performing their latest hit "Beautiful Mistakes," the first official single from their upcoming album JORDI. According to guitarist James Valentine, tapping that song to be the project's first release wasn't a unanimous decision, but he explains why they ultimately decided to go with it. "It's always really difficult choosing the first single, and I think there was some disagreement within the band as to what the first single should be...I think it was definitely between 'Beautiful Mistakes' and 'Lost,'" says James, referring to another track on the record. "But I think 'Beautiful Mistakes' was a good entry point for the record -- I think it kind of has that summertime feel: nice, sorta breezy," he explains. But what sealed the deal, he says, was the addition of superstar rapper Megan Thee Stallion to the track. "Being able to collaborate with Megan Thee Stall..
