Idol's Adam Lambert to play New Zealand

Controversial American Idol star Adam Lambert is set to perform in New Zealand for the first time.

The singer, who was runner-up in the reality show's eighth season, will perform at Trusts Stadium in Auckland on October 17.

He promises to bring his full audio-visual show, with a spectacal that combines 60s psycadelia, 70s disco and 80s glam-goth.

Lambert caused controversy at the American Music Awards last year with a sexually charged performance that included a kiss with his male keyboard player. Networks were flooded with complaints, but Lambert defended the show.

"I admit I did get carried away, but I don't see anything wrong with it. I do see how people got offended, and that was not my intention," he said.

"If it had been a female pop performer doing the moves that were on the stage, I don't think there'd be nearly as much of an outrage at all," Lambert added. "I think it's because I'm a gay male."


Tickets go on sale on September 13.

Metallica still to rock Christchurch

Rockers Metallica are refusing to let New Zealand's recent earthquakes stop them from performing for fans here.
Devotees feared three big quakes over the past five days, including a 7.1-magnitude one that hit the country's South Island, would prompt Metallica to postpone two sold-out shows set for Christchurch later this month (Sep10).
But the band insists the shows at the CBS Canterbury Arena - close to the epicentre of the earthquakes - will go ahead as planned on 21 and 22 September (10).
Engineers are currently assessing the 9,000-capacity venue for damage, but bosses insist it doesn't appear the arena has been damaged at all.

September's Band to keep an eye on - Lights

Intergalactic star Lights went from strength to strength back in 2009, starting out the year with a Juno Award for Best New Artist (previous recipients include Nelly Furtado and Avril Lavigne) and ending it on a high with the release of her debut album The Listening. Jump to the present and the young Canadian has once again been nominated for a Juno Award, this year in the ‘Pop Album of the Year’ category alongside Michael Buble and Justin Bieber. Currently on tour with chart sensation Owl City for five months (January – May 2010) followed by a brief tour of the UK, Lights travels mean you have no excuse not to make it out to a show, unless of course – like many – they’re already sold out! 2010 is going to be a big year for the rather little Canadian artist.

Artists scramble to get on the Bieber train

"I've got a lot of surprises for you tonight," Justin Bieber  promised fans at the start of his sold-out, first-ever headlining concert at Madison Square Garden (Aug. 31)-- and he wasn't kidding. Everyone from Miley Cyrus, Sean Kingston and Jaden Smith to Boyz II Men, Usher and Ludacris  joined the 16-year-old pop phenom onstage for a show frantically paced and carefully calibrated to hold the attention of his tween army.  

The surplus of guest appearances was no coincidence. Bieber's MSG show was being taped for his  upcoming 3-D biopic  ("Everyone in this audience is gonna be in my movie!" he told the crowd), and the singer appropriately pulled out all the stops for the cameras. After kicking off his under two-hour set with the Cardigans-inspired "Love Me" -- from his debut album "My World," released less than one year ago -- Bieber introduced Boyz II Men to assist him on new single "U Smile," which this week marks his highest debut to date on Billboard's Pop Songs chart (No. 33). Bieber then returned the favor by introducing a new generation to Boyz II Men's hit ballad "On Bended Knee," singing it with the group a cappella. "These people are the ones who made me want to start singing," he explained, dedicating the song to his mother.

Lionel Richie's commercial for potato chips

It's the first ad that Richie, known for hits such as 'Hello' and 'Dancing On The Ceiling,' has appeared in for 30 years.

He explained why he decided to agree to the project. "Once I found out that it came with enough laughs to make your sides split, then I said, 'I'm in.' Because it's got to be humorous."
