Ever wonder if those folks who brave it up in those karaoke lounges happen to be professional singers (well, except for the Koreans who all seem to be able to sing). Well now you'll have to think twice as Jewel teams up with the Funny or Die team and goes undercover at a local LA karaoke spot (The Gas Light, Santa Monica) and sings her classics. Everyone's reaction is priceless and yes, you'll find yourself singing along.

Quickly off his mildly-received "Over" video, Drake releases his latest single for "Find Your Love" directed by Anthony Mandler. Set place is Kingston Jamaica, the storyline shows us how Drake's search for love gets him in a bit of trouble. The song also takes a step away from his rap-heavy line of singles lately and focuses on his vocals, which I think he holds his own as an R&B talent.

One of the hottest, most versatile artists since Kanye West (well, not counting Justin Bieber) drops his video for his highly anticipated first single "Over". Everything about Drake has been so much hype and he has a lot to live up to. His first studio album has been delayed a couple times but "Thank Me Later" debuts in June.
So first think about the timeless song "I Will Always Love You." Think about who sang it, the untouchable Whitney Houston. Think about how hard it is to sing that song, even for a girl.
Now take a look at that picture. Little kid. A boy even. And that funny haircut (90's bowl cut, anyone?).
Have a mental idea of what you're expecting to hear? Well jump forward to about 1:10 in the YouTube clip and prepare to be amazed.
Seems like Lady Gaga has fans as weird and crazy as her. YouTube celeb Steve Karydn does his best Lady Gaga impersonation on the super popular webcam chatting site Chatroulette in his rendition of "Telephone". Needless to say, this is the kind of stuff you risk seeing when you use that website.
For those who haven't heard of Chatroulette, it's basically HotorNot for webcam chatting. Remember that site where you just flipped through photos of other vain people (yes, you know you put yourself up to boost up your ego) and voted if you thought they were hot or not? Well same concept except it's a live person on the other end. If you like them you can choose to stay and chat, or if not you can just skip them. Egos shattered plenty.
