Pay attention, kids. This is what living inside the Disney bubble might do to you. Miley Cyrus is so out-of-touch with her own music and her own image, she doesn’t even think she’s a pop singer.

Uhhh…what? Watch the interview above, where Miley Cyrus admits she’s “never heard a Jay-Z” song, despite the lyrics of her popular joint “Party in the U.S.A.” The Disney darling goes on to say she’s not a pop singer - it’s “not even my style.” Somebody, let this child get in touch with reality.

Even though Britney Spears isn’t exactly known for her live vocal talents, someone wants to make sure those Down Under know what they’re paying for.

Australia’s Minister for Fair Trading for New South Wales is tossing around the idea of including a disclaimer of sorts in concert-related materials. “It is Britney’s ‘prerogative’ to lip-sync, and it is my job to make sure consumers know what they are paying for up front,” Virginia Judge said in a statement.

Judge doesn’t necessarily believe Britney’s upcoming performance will be a disappointment, she just wants fans entering with their eyes wide open. “Personally I would rather see a live set from a local artist,” the government employee said, “but I am sure Britney’s fans will be treated to a spectacular show.”

No Doubt are suing the makers of a music video game.

The American rock group agreed to have their name and likenesses used in Band Hero, but the band’s manager, Jim Guerinot, said they were “mortified” to find out that players could use singer Gwen Stefani to perform other artists’ songs. “They’re just like, ‘What? We didn’t sign up for this,’ ” Guerinot said.

No Doubt - whose hits include “Don’t Speak” and “Just A Girl” - are suing the game’s manufacturers Activision for breach of contract and fraudulent inducement. Activision said it “believes it is within its legal rights with respect to the use and portrayal of the band.”

I’m not sure how a date change would really make a difference in Chris Brown‘s life at this point, but I guess it wouldn’t hurt for him to try.

Although the 20-year-old singer’s upcoming album was originally set for release on December 15, it will now be made available one week earlier.

Why would Chris want Graffiti dropped closer to Rihanna’s own release date (Nov. 23)? Closer to the unveiling of his ex’s 20/20 interview? Who knows? Maybe Jive Records figures it’s best to take advantage of any publicity - good or bad?

Whatever the reason, the CD comes shortly after Brown kicks off a list of performances. He’ll kick off his Fan Appreciation tour in Houston on November 14 and wrap up in New York on December 15.

The Rolling Stones may be about to tour again.

Ronnie Wood confirmed he had been in touch with band members Mick Jagger and Charlie Watts just last week and everything was “great” - hinting the group could hit the road again soon. He added that he was confident the band could do a follow up tour to 2007’s Bigger Bang.

Earlier this week, Wood picked up the Outstanding Contribution award at the Marshall Classic Rock Roll of Honour awards. The rocker, who was at the event with his 20-year-old Russian girlfriend Ekaterina Ivanova, also said there could be a reunion with his other band, Faces. “Well, we just had one, and there will definitely be more,” he stated.

Commenting on rock stars wearing makeup, Ronnie said: “It’s like KISS - they’re people you don’t recognize in the street, then they take makeup off, I’ve always worn it, but I’ve not got any on tonight.”

There are yet to be any dates confirmed for either a Faces or Rolling Stones tour.

Boyzone may be too distraught over Stephen Gately’s death to tour.

The group confirmed earlier this week they are planning to use vocals recorded by Stephen before his sudden and unexpected death last month on their new album, but frontman Ronan Keating said their grief may prevent them from taking the new material on tour.

“We’ve got his vocals for several tracks, thank God. But as for going on the road, we may tour, we may not. I keep remembering things and I get emotional,” Ronan said. The singer also revealed he thinks the band’s next single - which will feature Stephen’s voice and was written by British pop star Mika - will have a huge impact.

Gavin Rossdale is going to perform with his three-year-old son.

The “Swallowed” singer says Kingston - his eldest child with wife Gwen Stefani - is already displaying signs of wanting to follow in the footsteps of his rocker parents and has promised him he can join them one day.

“At the last benefit we were at, he wanted to get on stage with me and sing,” Rossdale revealed. “I told him we can, but we have to practice a bit first.”

Gavin added Kingston particularly loves the drums and always wants to help out in sound checks. “He always wants to come now. During the show, he loves to be on stage on the side. But he loves to play the drums during the sound checks and play with my guitar pedals. He likes to check the mic,” he told Popeater.

Kingston and his brother, 14-month-old Zuma, often go on tour with Gavin and with Gwen’s band No Doubt, and Stefani said she valued the quality time with her children. Speaking about a recent trip to Russia with Zuma, Gwen, 40, recently said: “It has been perfect. I knew I couldn’t be without him.”

Slash is finishing recording his solo album today.

The former Guns N’ Roses guitarist said he’s recording the last song for his debut solo album - which will feature a number of guest vocalists - and can’t wait for the results to be released.

“It’s pretty much done. I’ve got a couple of songs left to mix and I’ve got one song left to record which I’m doing as soon as I leave here, after I head back tomorrow,” he said Monday at the Marshall Classic Rock Roll of Honour Awards. “There’s quite a list of people on the album. I’m not publicly talking about who it is until all the ink is dried on all the different contracts, but the rumors are out there - you sort of know what’s going on.”

Those reportedly appearing on the album include ex Guns N’ Roses bandmate Steven Adler, Black Eyed Peas’ vocalist Fergie, Ozzy Osbourne, Chris Cornell, Flea, Dave Grohl and Cyprus Hill on a new version of “Paradise City.”

Ian Brown was arrested yesterday for allegedly attacking his wife.

The former Stone Roses singer was taken into custody on suspicion of assault after neighbors alerted police to a disturbance at his west London home. When officers arrived, Fabiola Quiroz, the mother of Ian’s 9-year-old son, told officers her husband had abused her.

“A 46-year-old man was arrested at the address and taken to a police station,” a police spokesman confirmed. The “Stellify” singer was later released on bail until a hearing next month.

Bon Jovi has been blasted for “ludicrous” ticket prices for their London tour.

The “We Weren’t Born to Follow” rockers are set to play a string of dates at the city’s O2 Arena starting June 7, but fans are upset they will have to pay up to a staggering $2100 to see their idols.

General admission to the shows costs $73 for the cheapest seats, rising to $327, while the price of the highest-banded premium tickets has led angry fans to call for a boycott of the concerts.

One wrote on the group’s website: “I am going to stand up for what I believe in and use my earnings to feed my kids rather than lining some fat cat’s pockets.” Another added: “After writing an album about the world’s problems with the recession the prices are just a mockery.”

U2 will play a free show in Germany to commemorate the fall of the Berlin Wall.

The “Get On Your Boots” rockers will play in front of Berlin’s iconic Brandenburg Gate as part of the MTV European Music Awards (EMAs) on November 5, as a prelude to the city’s “Fall of the Wall” celebrations.

“It’ll be an exciting spot to be in, 20 years almost to the day since the wall came down,” the group’s manager, Paul McGuinness, said. “They’re expecting tens of thousands of people to turn up,” a source added to Britain’s Daily Mirror. “They’ve played some interesting places in the past but this’ll certainly be the most ambitious - and most poignant - one to date.”

Parts of the set will be beamed live into the EMAs which take place in the city on the same day.

A Pussycat Dolls-esque dance line? Plunging necklines and thongs? A song about threesomes? What more could anyone want from Britney Spears?

Considering the subject matter, this video for “3” is actually surprisingly tame. Given her performance in “Womanizer,” I’m shocked she kept her clothes on this time around.

There’s just something about fish that gets South Park singing.

Earlier this year, the Comedy Central program turned Kanye West’s “Heartless” into a song about gay fish. Now a Lady Gaga track is getting its turn.

Last night, the hit “Poker Face” was incorporated into an episode titled “Whale Whores.” Since the show wasn’t actually an attack on Lady Gaga (the program had its sights set on Animal Planet’s Whale Wars), I think she should consider this an honor.

Run-DMC are in talks to turn their story into a Broadway production.

The two surviving members of the pioneering hip-hop group - Reverend Run and DMC - have met with a Hollywood producer to discuss turning the story of their career into a musical. The project is to being headed up by Paula Wagner - who produced Hollywood films Mission: Impossible and Valkyrie.

“Run-DMC’s lyrics and music are infectious. It’s vibrant, it’s alive,” Paula said. “Who they are and what they did was a culturally defining moment. It embraced everybody. Their rise to fame is innately theatrical. It speaks to everybody.”

Musician Jeff Beck will be stepping in for Eric Clapton later this week during festivities for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The 64-year-old guitarist was forced to cancel his Madison Square Garden performance after undergoing surgery for gallstones.

Beck is just one of several musicians lined up for the two-day benefit event in New York. Stevie Wonder, Sting, Paul Simon and Crosby, Stills & Nash are amongst those scheduled for Thursday while Aretha Franklin, Lenny Kravitz, U2 and Metallica are on the slate for Friday.

Bruce Springsteen - who canceled an appearance in Kansas City yesterday after a death in his family - is also supposed to appear on Thursday.

Clapton is reportedly doing well and is recovering from his operation in England.

Chris Brown stays up late looking at photographs of him and Rihanna.

The “Run It” singer hit his Twitter account early Monday morning and linked to video of them in happier times. He also wrote about his “emotions” about not being with the “Disturbia” songstress anymore.

“IM SORRY YALL. JUST HAD TO POST IT (sic),” Chris said. “FOR THE FELLAS: showing emotion doesn’t make u weak… BEING HONEST MAKES U STRONG (sic).”

A death in Bruce Springsteen‘s immediate family resulted in the cancellation of his Kansas City concert tonight. The announcement came less than two hours before the show was to begin.

“Lenny Sullivan, Bruce’s cousin and the assistant road manager of the E Street Band for the last ten years, passed away today at the age of 36. A warm and sensitive person, he was beloved by Bruce, the Band, the crew, and the entire Thrill Hill family,” read the statement on Springsteen’s website.

Katy Perry celebrated her 25th birthday with a Willy Wonka-styled event on Saturday.

The “Hot N Cold” singer held the bash at The Sunset Beach nightspot in Los Angeles and guests - who had been told to wear white - were left covered head-to-toe in paint. “They got a little crazy with the paint. I wasn’t expecting it but everyone got painted - even Taylor Swift!” an attendee said.

The party - which was inspired by Wonka’s workshop from Roald Dahl’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory - had Oompah Loompahs running around and a huge variety of candy and chocolate.

Morrissey has been released from hospital.

The 50-year-old collapsed on stage in Swindon, England, on Saturday night just one song into his concert. Although The Smiths’ former frontman - who reportedly experienced with chest pains and breathing difficulties - is said to be “much improved,” he is not yet fit to resume his tour.

A spokesperson for the star said: “Tonight’s show at Bournemouth Opera House will not take place on medical advice. Morrissey has now been released from hospital and is under doctors’ instruction to rest. Event organizers apologize for this unavoidable situation.”

“Morrissey is in stable condition after his collapse in Swindon on Saturday night. Thanks go out to all his well wishers, more information will be posted as soon as it is available,” a statement on the singer’s official website added.

Rumors say that Google will soon make an announcement and unveil what is reportedly being called “One Box,” a brand-new facet of the popular search engine that will help users search for music.

If you’ve ever used Google Images, you already know how the new search is rumored to work. You’ll type in an artist’s name - Michael Jackson, for instance - and be greeted with Web sites allowing you to listen to or buy the songs you’re seeking. Apple and iTunes are no doubt already sweating.

Who knew Lil Wayne‘s Behind the Music special would become so dated…so quickly?

A fourth child isn’t the only thing the rapper is facing in the months to come. Come February, the 27-year-old may be sentenced to up to one year in jail.

Earlier today, the Grammy award winner pleaded guilty to an attempted weapons possession charge. The plea bargain - which reversed an earlier “not guilty” declaration - spared Lil Wayne (a.k.a. Dwayne Michael Carter Jr.) from what could have been 3.5 years following a jury trial.

Thursday’s legal matter stemmed from a July 2007 police search of his tour bus. DNA tests conducted later linked Carter to a .40-caliber gun found on board. Unfortunately, today’s agreement with prosecutors won’t put an end to Dwayne’s troubles. He still faces drug and weapons possession charges from a January 2008 incident in Arizona.

Johnny Depp is to play guitar live with his favorite British band.

The Pirates of the Caribbean actor is being lined up to appear with Babybird next month when they make their comeback at a small London venue.

Johnny, 46, has already played a large part in the “You’re Gorgeous” hitmakers’ return, by directing the video to the first single from their new album Ex-Maniac. He was pictured on the set of the video with British actor Stephen Graham, whom he starred alongside in Public Enemies.

Babybird previously revealed that Johnny was instrumental in getting the album made, after he introduced frontman Stephen Jones to some of his music producer friends. “Grammy nominated producers Bruce Witkin and Ryan Dorn were introduced to Jones by long-time Babybird fan Johnny Depp, who also makes a cameo appearance on the new recording,” a spokesperson for the group said.

Joss Stone believes she has an “atrocious personality.”

The 22-year-old singer - who was criticized for adopting an American accent after moving to the US in 2006 - believes she stopped connecting with fans because of the way she portrays herself.

“I think I suffered a backlash not because of my music but because of me - my atrocious personality probably,” she told Britain’s Daily Star newspaper. “I don’t give away too much about my private life so people just make stuff up. It doesn’t matter what I do or don’t say. I can just chill alone for months and still be labeled the biggest b***h in the world. But my hair has changed - it’s my real color now. And I’ve made a simple album that I love.”

Joss is proud of her new LP Colour Me Free, and is confident the material marks a return to the sound which made her famous. “I finally got a chance to make music without people sitting over my shoulder and telling me what to think or play,” Stone said. “When I did my last album I was obsessed with getting it right. Now I’m just like, ‘F**k it, let’s go make some noise.’”

Adam Lambert may have lost out to Kris Allen, but he’ll somehow find the way to survive 2012.

In “Time for Miracles,” a song from the upcoming disaster movie, the American Idol finalist reminds us that there’s never a wrong time to sing a power ballad. In fact, you should let one out before the rest of the world comes crashing down on you.

The film’s soundtrack is just one of two CDs Adam’s name will be attached to next month. For Your Entertainment, a solo album that will include a track written by Lady Gaga, will debut on November 23.

In her new single, titled “Russian Roulette,” the 21-year-old sings “Take a breath, take it deep/ Calm yourself, he says to me/ If you play, you play for keeps/ Take a gun, and count to three/ I’m sweating now, moving slow/ No time to think, my turn to go.” The track, which has was written and produced by frequent collaborator Ne-Yo, can be heard here.

Although Whitney Houston is not set to tour the UK until April, television audiences got a preview of what to expect last night.

During last night’s X Factor, the singer performed the song “Million Dollar Bill”...and nearly gave viewers quite a show.

At approximately the 2:15 mark of her number, part of Houston’s silver gown came undone. Whitney had been so concerned with the bottom part of her dress, she didn’t realize the back was really the issue.

The professional, of course, didn’t let the malfunction interrupt her performance and even acknowledged the mishap at the end. “I sang myself out of my clothes,” she joked.

Note to Jennifer Anistion: If you really plan on reuniting with John Mayer, don’t ever tell him he can’t get stoned.

In “Who Says,” the first track from his upcoming album, the 32-year-old sings about his right to partake in a little drug and booty call action. “Who says I can’t get stoned?/ Call up a girl that I used to know/ Fake love for an hour or so/ Who says I can’t get stoned?” Well - it was just your birthday, John, so I guess you should be able to do what you want.

Battle Studies, Mayer’s fourth solo album, will come out on November 17.
