WKND. UPDATE: OCTOBER 10 & 11

Tell me, tell me whatcha say...wha-wha-wha-wha-what didcha saaaaaaay....
HOLA! Happy weekend, thanks for listening to Q92, and peepin' this here lil' blog. Big things are happening....read on....

KATY PERRY AND RUSSELL BRAND....LOVERS?!
KATY PERRY may be nailing British "comedian" RUSSELL BRAND. Both of them blogged recently about having a great time vacationing in Thailand...although neither of them said anything about being with the other.

More importantly, they were photographed together last Friday going to a party in the U.K....and then Saturday morning leaving Russell's apartment.

Well, that was last weekend. Later this past week, they attended a fashion event and made things public. Really Katy? You can do better than this.

GAGA & KANYE...A MUTUAL DECISION
KANYE WEST and LADY GAGA'S joint Fame Kills tour was suddenly cancelled without explanation. It's still unclear exactly WHY it was shut down, but Gaga now claims they reached the decision together.

She says, quote, "It was a mutual decision to cancel the tour. Kanye's going to take some time off. But the good news is that I'm going on tour in a few weeks."

Gaga says her solo tour will kick off just "a week later" than November 10th, when the tour with Kanye was supposed to start.

The dates for her new tour have yet to be announced.

Kanye DID say he needed to take a "break" in one of his apologies for his rude outburst at the "MTV Video Music Awards". On the other hand, the timing of that incident may also have also had a negative effect on ticket sales.

For what it's worth, her choreographer, Lori Ann Gibson, said the tour fell apart because of, quote, "creative differences" between Gaga and Kanye.

We haven't heard anything official about that...although Gaga did say, quote, "In respects to the creative work that [Kanye and I] did together, I won't be doing any of the things that we designed for the tour. It will be entirely new."







OLD SCHOOL HIT MUSIC NEWS...
Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins...of TLC...is just now revealing that she was diagnosed with a non-cancerous BRAIN TUMOR three years ago, and has been recovering ever since.

T-Boz tells "People" magazine, quote, "I'd had headaches for six years. I thought it was stress. But when my vision went blurry, I got an MRI."

She had surgery to remove the growth back in 2006, but she almost didn't survive it. After the surgery, there were several complications because T-Boz also suffers from sickle-cell disease.

She explains, quote, "I had a sickle-cell crisis. With the pain meds and steroids, they said I kept flopping and hitting my head. They gave me IV fluids in order to stop it.

"After I was released [from the hospital] more than a week later, the ride to my Los Angeles apartment was like vertigo to the 10th power. I had to sit up in bed for two months. They propped me up, but I kept sliding down, which made my head swell.

"I was readmitted [to the hospital]. I couldn't walk or really see. I heard screeching noises." She then had another surgery...and then she began a long road to recovery, which included, quote, "relearning how to walk and how to say my ABCs."

Recently, T-Boz has been in good health. She even did "Celebrity Apprentice" last spring. So why are we just hearing about all this now??? T-Boz says, quote, "I didn't want pity."









IT'S LEGAL IN FLORIDA TO VIDEOTAPE A WOMAN'S BUTT IN PUBLIC:
Recently, perverts in Florida...by which I mean MEN in Florida...struck a major legal victory. Listen to this...

Last month, 30-year-old Krishna Ajvalia of Tampa, Florida, was arrested for using a hidden video camera to secretly record WOMEN'S BACKSIDES in a local Target store.

But last week, the charges against Krishna were dropped. Why?

According to Tampa's Assistant State Attorney, quote, "To be a crime, the filming must be done in a place where someone would have an expectation of privacy, such as a bathroom or a dressing room, or the filming must be done through or underneath someone's clothing."

In other words, if you feel like videotaping someone's butt in Florida, you're perfectly within your legal rights to do so, as long as it's in public. Who's looking forward to vacation?!








EVACUATE THE DANCEFLOOR....
I'm infected by the sound....







THE FAST FOOD NATION....
Right now, there are roughly 13,000 McDonald's restaurants in the United States alone. That got a visual artist named Stephen Von Worley thinking...

Stephen wanted to know HOW FAR AWAY you could possibly get from the nearest McDonald's restaurant in the lower 48 states.

So Stephen plotted every single McDonald's on a map of the contiguous 48 states. And what did he find?

The furthest you can get from McDonald's is in an area of northwestern South Dakota where the closest McDonald's restaurant is 107 miles away, as the crow flies, and 145 miles away by car.

Check out this map showing all of the Mickey D's in the lower 48....

BIG THINGS HAPPENIN' ON Q92...
I was in yesterday...and out as well...to help DeLuca & Charlotte out. Had a little scavenger hunt with 3 of our finalists, grand prize of a brand new laptop...I'm thinkin' it was an HP? Man, I really don't know! BUT I know it was uber shnazzy. Had 3 refs. from the station to ride along with each contest, but we were only allowed to assist with the directions, thats all. The rest of the hunt was all up to them.
I rode along with Cindy, and SHE WON! 25 out of 30 items collected! Now there were some allegations of cheating, but I can assure you that was not the case! Superior navigation skills from Robbie Mack. I know my way around, and we did a circle around town...made some shortcuts, and a few stops that other contestants probably didn't know about!

I was snapping some pics with the cell as we went along....

And Cindy digging around thru the bucket and only coming up with one...do people not wear lipstick anymore? I would say no.

BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE....
We're bringing an artist to town that has one of our most popular songs on Q92 right now...
Listen all weekend for hints, and we'll announce it MONDAY!






STILL NOT FINISHED....
This I can give you NO hints about, but listen to Nikolina at 10am Monday....thats all. Just do it.





F.O.B. ENDS THE EMO CUT?
NOT cutting, don't worry, emo kids will still cut themselves!
If FALL OUT BOY bassist PETE WENTZ still has any say in the hairstyle trends of today's youth...the days of the "emo haircut" are coming to an end.

On Sunday night, Fall Out Boy performed with BLINK-182 at Madison Square Garden in New York...and it turned out to be a historic night for emo. Because Blink bassist MARK HOPPUS shaved Pete's hair. (!!!)

Before it went down, Pete told the crowd, quote, "So you guys know Jay-Z's 'Death of Auto-Tune'? This is the death of the emo haircut."

Check out a side-by-side...

Hey Pete...I wouldn't mind "death of 'guyliner'" and "death of guys in girl jeans"...could we work on that next? Thanks!

THREE'S A PARTY ON THE CW??
Sources tell "Entertainment Weekly" that there will be a THREESOME on the November 9th episode of "Gossip Girl".

There's no word who'll be involved, but supposedly, you'll see "three major characters having sex...at the same time...in the same bed...together."






INTERESTING FACT:
When the Vikings beat the Packers 30-to-23 last Monday night, Brett Favre became the only quarterback EVER to beat all 32 NFL teams.







"HEROES" NEEDS VIEWERS...
Actually, NBC needs viewers PERIOD. But, in the case of Heroes, the hope is a little girl-on-girl kiss will do the trick! Episode airs this Monday. Of course, HAYDEN PANETTIERE, but sadly her co-star looks more like a man. Bo Bice? Remember him? Kinda looks like him. Hmmmm.

IN CASE YOU NEED TO KNOW...
JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE will appear, via satellite, on "The Jay Leno Show" Monday...to do Jay's "Ten @ Ten" segment. Jay will ask his 10 random questions...and Justin will answer them.
Everybody will WANT Jay to ask Justin who he's currently nailing: Jessica Biel of Rihanna. Will he??? Probably not.
