Jimmy Fallon and Bruce Springsteen Cover "Whip My Hair"

Lauren Bradshaw — Wed, 17 Nov 2010 10:30:16 PST

Leave it to Jimmy Fallon to take the hot song du jour and turn it into a hilarious cover. The host took to the mic on his show last night to do a Neil Young rendition of Willow Smith's "Whip My Hair" with The Boss as his backup. The song starts off with Fallon gloomily crooning about his "haters," then midway through a ragged Bruce Springsteen joins in for the chorus. It's a brilliant collaboration, and honestly, the cover actually sounds pretty good! Watch the video after the jump.

Kate Hudson Joins Gaga, Elton, and More to Save the Rain Forest

Molly — Fri, 14 May 2010 06:00:00 PDT

Kate Hudson was just named the new face of Almay, and she was out last night to represent the brand at their concert to celebrate the Rainforest Fund's 21st birthday in NYC. Lady Gaga, Elton John, Mary J. Blige, Sting and more performed to the crowd at legendary Carnegie Hall. Kate, who showed off her singing skills in Nine, tried her hand at a duet with Bruce Springsteen. We may not all understand Kate's taste in men like Alex Rodriguez, but the actress looks like she's having a blast spending another season in the city. This time she's been staying away from Yankee Stadium, however, instead sticking to filming Something Borrowed, spending time with Ryder, and keeping her red carpet social schedule full.

To see more from the event including Chris Noth, Deborah Harry, Mary J Blige, Elton John, Sting, Trudie Styler, and others just read more.

TV Tonight: Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Anniversary Concert

BuzzSugar — Sun, 29 Nov 2009 10:30:46 PST

HBO is hosting a special tonight to celebrate the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 25th Anniversary, and the line-up is star-studded. U2, Metallica, Aretha Franklin, Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band, and other acts each have a segment of the show where they'll be rocking their music, along with a few tunes by other artists who have inspired their work.

I'm glad to see Bruce and his boys here after hearing they might not perform together anytime soon, but what I'm most psyched to watch is the evening's unique musical pairings: Stevie Wonder and John Legend are teaming up to perform "The Way You Make Me Feel," Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band and Billy Joel have a duet to "New York State of Mind," and U2, Mick Jagger, and the Black Eyed Peas are coming together for "Gimme Shelter." Awesome! And those are just a sampling of the many collaborations.

The only downside: the show is four hours long (ugh). I don't know if I'll be able to sit through the whole thing without getting fidgety. Still, I'm programming it in my TiVo, so I can watch at my own leisure.

The concert airs at 8 p.m. EST/PST. Will you tune in? Which musical group are you most excited to see perform?

What Artist (Living or Dead) Would You Want to See on Tour?

BuzzSugar — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 12:30:29 PST

Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band recently played the final show of their tour in Buffalo, but is it the last time we'll see ever them? Springsteen sure made it sound like a goodbye saying, "The E Street Band has come thousands of miles tonight to be here one last time - for a little while." I'm wondering exactly what "a little while" means . . . Was this possibly their swan song?! I would've loved to have been there. They reportedly played for three and a half hours, so I'm sure it was an epic show.

It got me thinking about all of the acts I'd like to catch someday before they go the way of the E Street Band - and a few I wish I could see (at least in a dream world), e.g. Neutral Milk Hotel before they split, the original Weezer lineup, and the most obvious, The Beatles.

So chime in and tell me: which artists (living or dead) would you want to see on tour?

Do, Dump, or Marry? Bruce Springsteen

TresSugar — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 14:20:00 PDT

In honor of his 60th birthday (which is today!), Bruce Springsteen decided to mix things up and appear on the cover of AARP The Magazine. Who needs Rolling Stone anyway!

After years of performing, Springsteen still seems wildly popular. And he hasn't really lost his looks, or nice butt, either. Does The Boss turn you on?

Sugardaddy: Bruce Springsteen

LilSugar — Thu, 05 Feb 2009 07:00:08 PST

Who didn't dream about being the one pulled out of the crowd to dance with Bruce Springsteen in his Dancing in the Dark video? While Courteney Cox will always have that honor, seeing one of rock and roll's living legends all over my television screen this past month has brought those memories back.

The 59-year-old father of three shows no signs of slowing down after rocking the halftime show at the Super Bowl, winning a Golden Globe for his song from The Wrestler, performing at the inaugural concert and releasing a new album. And, that was just his January! His songs about the day-to-day struggles of working class Americans have made him a hero to many, while his political activism has helped him share the stage with several liberal politicians over the past few years.

Father to Evan James, 18, Jessica Rae, 17, and Sam Ryan, 15, Springsteen has kept his family out the limelight, only recently bringing them to events. The proud New Jersey native is about to embark on his latest concert tour, giving all us an opportunity to see this sugardaddy in person.
