Crue FestWild and crazy rock meets a new generation when Motley Crue headlines the Crue Fest, alongside Buckcherry, Papa Roach and Nikki Sixx's side band, Sixx:AM. What makes this a festival is the "Rock Band Second Stage Experience" - a stage tricked out with lights, monitors and killer sound and the video game "Rock Band."

The Faint Sounds of '8'

Nicole Scherzinger Admits Costumes Are Too Tight

Pussycat Doll Nicole Scherzinger says her stage outfit is so tight that she thinks she might faint! The lead singer says her patent corset, leggings and knee high boots are so snug she can barely breath and can feel her face turning blue.  The 30-year-old said "Every night I do this one note and I'm still by the grace of God wondering when I'm going to faint on stage. I feel like my face is turning blue like in the cartoons. I'm like 'hold it, hold it'."  Fellow band member Kimberly Wyatt added that "There's not really enough room for your ribs to expand so you can't really breathe. You just have to hold your breath and hope everything comes out."  In the best part of the Pussycat Dolls' dish session to ITV's This Morning today, they said that they get their on-stage energy from banoffee pie, which they eat before performances for energy-- and motivation.   Click for Pics of Nicole Performing on Stage!
