Jesse McCartney Celebrates New LP, Future David Cook Collabo

Jesse McCartney is known for being a child actor, pop dreamboat and consistently the most celebrated person at the Kids Choice Awards. But he’s also half the brains behind last year’s highest-grossing song in the U.K., Leona Lewis‘ sultry ballad “Bleeding Love,” and the owner of two Number One singles, a platinum record and a rack of Radio Disney trophies that would make Miley Cyrus jealous. Not bad for a dude who started out balancing soap opera roles with a tap-dancing boy band (Wiki search: Dream Street. Hilarious.) Rock Daily stopped by McCartney’s release party for Departure at New York’s Marquee last night and learned McCartney has good reason to be psyched that David Cook won American Idol. “Ryan [Tedder of OneRepublic] and I are planning to write some songs with him for his album,” he said. So does he have any regrets about giving “Bleeding Love” (which he also penned with Tedder) away? “No, no,” he said. “I’m so happy for Leona. She deserves it. There are really no bad feelings.” [Photo: Getty]

CBGB’s Vacant Shell To House Designer Suits And Other Things We Can’t Afford

The space that was once occupied by New York punk landmark CBGB, shuttered since its farewell run last October, will soon be filled with the designer suits and upscale fragrances of a John Varvatos boutique. The designer hopes to move into the vacant spot along the Bowery by March. If cancer hadn’t recently claimed CBGB founder Hilly Kristal, this news might have. The boutique is just the latest addition to hit the formerly dilapidated Bowery strip: Whole Foods and Starbucks were recently constructed as the street continues to morph from punky to yuppie. While we’re a bit pained picturing cash registers where Talking Heads and the Ramones once performed, New York City blog Gothamist points out that Varvatos is kind of a rock-star designer — Iggy Pop was a model in his fall 2006 ad campaign, and Alice Cooper, Slash and Ryan Adams have donned his designs. Still, we’d rather reminisce about better days at 315 Bowery.

K!'s SXSW blog (Part One)

K! editor Paul Brannigan reports from this year's South By South West festival. Wednesday, March 18 The city fathers of Austin, Texas grandly refer to their hometown as 'the live music capital of the world'. During the annual South By South West festival you won't hear any dissenting voices. What you will hear, is music pumping out of every bar, restaurant and tattoo parlour, as hundreds of up and coming bands slug it out for Next Big Thing status. The competition is fierce - at any given hour there are 50 or 60 shows taking place simultaneously across the city - but the sheer variety of music on offer makes SXSW a fabulous, fascinating festival to attend. A wristband or SXSW badge gives you access to every show...the only problem being deciding where to start. Our SXSW starts at the legendary Emos venue, with the hardcore fury of Trash Talk, an impressively belligerent quartet from Sacramento. Reminscent of Black Flag at their most antagonistic, the quartet deal in short brutal bursts of noise with scant regard for melody or harmony. That their singer ends the show dripping blood and vomit tells you all about their commitment to pushing extremes. K! favourites The Bronx are up next, playing the first of what will be three shows today. They are, as ever, fantastic, slamming through a 35 minute set to a packed room, More on them later... At 7 o'clock it's Gallows turn to wreak havoc, over on Emos' outside stage, opening a bill which will later feature hardcore heroes Circle Jerks and former Bad Brains' frontman HR's new band. But there is nothing nostalgic about the Brit punks' set: indeed Frank Carter abandons Abandon Ship halfway through with the words "You get the gist" so that his band can focus on showcasing tunes from their upcoming Grey Britain album. Trust us, this album is immense and tonight songs like Vultures and Misery are given their US premiere in the most savage way. Carter's stage dive from the venue's roof is almost as impressive. As Gallows set cli

£24million richer and Heather’s STILL playing games

Listening back to Heather’s rant outside court, we’ve noticed something very interesting: Heather claims that she is only speaking to the press because she fears a ruling to make Justice Bennett’s judgement public will make her come across in a bad way. Ranting on about how the courts never want a litigant in person to come across well, she says the judge’s decision to make his judgement public “goes against everything to do with human rights” and that Sir Paul and the courts want to “make it look like I wasn’t successful”. Heather claims that she wants the judgement sealed because it “involves private secure matters concerning my daughter”. Could it also be that there might be some other information that Heather doesn’t want people to hear...? There are always two sides to every story, we grant you, but Heather’s speech does come over a little paranoid. At one point, she says about the courts, “These people are in a club. A lot of strange things have been going on.” Speaking about Sir Paul, she simply states, “He’s got everything that he wanted.” But, when a nearby reporter asked her if she was angry with him, she merely replied, “I can’t say that for the sake of my daughter, but my sister does.” Umm, her sister does what? Feel angry? Milk rats? Love Beatles songs still? We don’t know, but it’s all very bizarre, isn’t it? What do you think to all this, heatworlders? Speak your brains in true Heather fashion below....
