Lionel Richie Has Helium and He Ain't Afraid to Use It

GiggleSugar — Mon, 18 Feb 2008 11:00:00 -0800

Without a gimmicky reality show, how does a has-been celebrity get some attention these days? Well if you're Lionel Richie, you gulp down a balloon of helium prior to performing on a German talk show and sing- "Hello!" We hear you knocking Lionel, but maybe add a couple cartwheels and a juggling bit to your act and we might let you back in . . .

Pro-Obama musicians have teamed up to record "Yes We Can: Voices of a Grassroots Movement." Proceeds of the first-ever campaign compilation will support Obama's campaign. The artists also hope that the music will mobilize voters.

So whose voices make up a grassroots movement? Stevie Wonder, Sheryl Crow, John Mayer, Lionel Richie, Kanye West, Adam Levine, and John Legend all grace the album, whose self-proclaimed inspiration is "hope, unity, and change." It also includes excerpts from Obama's speeches. You can either download, or purchase the CD on Barack Obama's website.

"We Are the World" Gets Owned by Japanese Impersonators

GiggleSugar — Thu, 28 Feb 2008 13:00:00 -0800

These folks definitely did their homework. Watch a group of Japanese impersonators re-create the 1985 "We Are the World" music vid, featuring Tina Turner, Stevie Wonder, Wacko Jacko, Lionel "Hello Helium" Richie, and others. The look, sound, and mannerisms of the impersonations are spot-on, but Cyndi Lauper is my fave. Her vocals sound like a car with worn brakes screeching to a ~~halt~~ crash - just like the good ol' days . . .
