GETTIN' READY FOR CHANGES

Gearing up for some CHANGES on Q92 starting tomorrow (Monday)
For starters, FINALLY...our new morning show hits the air, nearly 2 months after the former team left. I love the small contingent of people who go "oh it won't be the same" - I say "you're right, it won't! It will different!"
I'm excited about what is to come and I think you'll be as well.

ALSO THIS WEEK ON Q92:
ROCK THE RESORT 2012 at Clay's Park. We announce the line-up LIVE at 5pm Monday afternoon, PLUS talk to one of the bands...and we'll blow out FREE tix ALL WEEK

DRAKE, J COLE and WAKA FLOCKA FLAME are coming to BLOSSOM on Memorial Day, Monday May 28th...we have beat the box office tix all week

CARLY RAE JEPSEN, a new artist with a song "Call Me Maybe" will be in-studio on Tuesday afternoon. We have passes for you to come to Q92's studio and meet her!

Alright....here's some shtuff....









COUGAR LOVE: J-LO STYLE
Ladies, you already hate JENNIFER LOPEZ enough for looking nowhere near her 42 years of age. And now you can hate her more for RUBBING YOUR NOSE IN IT.

Jennifer tells "Vogue" magazine that it's okay for her to be nailing 24-year-old dancer Casper Smart because...she looks a lot younger than she is.

She says, "I don't feel older, and I don't feel like I look it, either, so I am just acting the same way I have always acted."









RIHANNA IS GONNA MAKE YOU HATE HER TOO...
RIHANNA is missing something that's very important to her, and she wants it back. No, it's not her dignity or her humility. She's functioning just fine without either of those. It's her BUTT!

Rihanna's been losing a lot of weight lately, which she blames on her hectic schedule. And it's taking a toll on her once-glorious backside.

She says, "I'm working on getting [my butt] back. It used to be my favorite body part, but now it's disappeared!

"I'm going to have to start hiking or at least going on the elliptical or walking on an incremental treadmill or horseback riding. Something that firms the butt."

(She could ride my horse. ...HEY!!!!! ahem. anyway)

Rihanna would like you to know she hasn't been starving herself. She says, "I'm eating everything. I've been eating ice cream and fast food and Italian food."

Ah good. Rihanna is one of those people who eats everything in sight....and gains NO weight. Don't you LOVE those people?!








"WHEN MTV PLAYED VIDEOS"
Admit it, you've uttered that phrase...or how about, "When I was your age, MTV was a MUSIC channel"? Well, you won't have to beat that dead horse anymore...because pretty soon, there's going to be a movie that'll explain the whole thing.

There's a book about the early days of MTV called "I Want My MTV: The Uncensored Story of the Music Video Revolution"...and it's going to be made into a movie. There's no word yet when it'll be out.









TAYLOR DOES "HUNGER GAMES"
Everyone knows TAYLOR SWIFT writes songs about real stuff that happens in her life. So when she got the chance to write music from the point of view of Katniss Everdeen, the lead character in "The Hunger Games", it was a welcome change.

She says, "Slipping into her mind was such a wonderful break. It's pretty intense writing about my own life, my own struggles. It was almost like a vacation to get to write from someone else's perspective."

"The Hunger Games" soundtrack has two songs from Taylor on it: "Safe & Sound" with the CIVIL WARS...and "Eyes Wide Open", which you should be listening for on Q92









SAD NEWS ABOUT SPRING BREAK :(
College students on Spring Break are supposedly behaving better than past generations...because of the internet.

They're less likely to get sloppy drunk, pass out, or get naked, since nobody wants to be the subject of an embarrassing YouTube video or get tagged in humiliating Facebook photos.

Margaret Donnelly is a veteran bartender in Key West, and she says, "They're very prudish. Ten years ago, people were doing filthy, filthy things, but it wasn't posted on Facebook."









OH YEAH...
...this won't embarrass your kids or anything. Or leave them with emotional scars.
A family held a naked protest in the parking lot of Upper Darby High School near Philadelphia Friday...because the school wouldn't give early dismissal to one of the children.

43-year-old Sara Butler, daughters Joanne, who is 23, and Bessie, who's 22, showed up at the school at 10:00 A.M., along with a 14-year-old son who wasn't named.

They tried to sign out a fourth child, but, since Sara didn't have parental rights, the school refused. The family laid on the sidewalk in front of the school and prayed until security sent them away.

They returned three hours later, undressed, and ran around the parking lot praying to Jesus. Police came, and the family was charged with lewdness, trespassing, and disorderly conduct. Sara also got charged with corrupting the morals of a minor.










JERSEY SHORE: WITH PREGGERS SNOOKI
When SNOOKI finally confirmed that she's PREGNANT and ENGAGED earlier this month, there was speculation that this could spell the end for "Jersey Shore", or at least Snooki's run on the show. But that isn't the case.

MTV has announced that "Jersey Shore" will return for a sixth season...with a pregnant Snooki. The six other main cast members will also be back.

Season Six will film in Seaside Heights this summer, so Snooki will be HUGE. According to reports, she's due around the last week in August. There's no word when it'll premiere.

Btw, it's unclear if Snooki will be living in the house with everyone else.

Recently, she told "Us" magazine, "I'll visit the shore. I'm not living in that house pregnant. I don't want to be one of those moms who's pregnant in a club. It's disgusting."

Here's what MTV has to say about the next season: "The house dynamic is headed into unchartered territory as their lives outside of the 'Shore' take off in exciting new directions.

"While things will definitely be a little different this time when they hit the boardwalk, their trademark hilarity and family dysfunction will remain the same."









BEER!
Just because St. Patrick's Day is 357 days away, that doesn't mean we have to stop talking about beer.

A market research company called YouGov surveyed people nationwide and asked them which brands of beer they'd heard positive or negative things about in the last two weeks.

And the beer that has the most positive reactions in the country is...Samuel Adams.

Can I be honest? I've NEVER had a Sam Adams. Maybe I should try one!
It's also the only beer on the list currently owned by an American company.

Here's the full top 10...
#1.) Sam Adams
#2.) Budweiser
#3.) Bud Light
#4.) Heineken
#5.) Corona
#6.) Guinness
#7.) Dos Equis
#8.) Miller Lite
#9.) Coors Light
#10.) Miller










THE ROCK HALL INDUCTIONS...
Quickly approaching, RIGHT HERE in Northeast Ohio. Anyone going?

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has announced most of the presenters for their induction ceremony next month. Here's the list:

Comedian Chris Rock will induct the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Chris is apparently a HUGE Chili Peppers fan...and has been a longtime friend of the band.

Chuck D from Public Enemy will induct the Beastie Boys.

John Mellencamp will induct Donovan...who calls The Cougar a, "dear friend of recent years."

Steven Van Zandt from Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band will induct Small Faces/The Faces.

Actress/singer Bette Midler will induct singer-songwriter Laura Nyro.

Billy Gibbons and Dusty Hill from ZZ Top will induct blues guitarist Freddie King.

Carole King will induct producer Don Kirshner.

The Band's Robbie Robertson will induct producers Tom Dowd, Glyn Johns and Cosimo Matassa.

Smokey Robinson will induct his Motown group The Miracles, along with Gene Vincent's Blue Caps, Bill Haley's Comets, Buddy Holly's Crickets, James Brown's Famous Flames and Hank Ballard's Midnighters.

There's no word who's inducting Guns N' Roses because the situation is still being "finalized," but an announcement is coming soon. (Given Axl Rose's track record, it's so appropriate that their presenter would be announced LATE.)

The Rock Hall says "more details about performances, additional presenters and special guests will be announced at a later date."

The ceremony will be held in Cleveland on April 14th. It'll air on HBO a few weeks later, on May 5th.

For more information on the inductees, hit up RockHall.com/Inductees.










LADY A
Lady Antebellum has selected the winning high school in their "Own the Prom Night with Lady A" promotion. But there's a twist. Schools had to send a video explaining why they deserved the free show.

But the awesome kids at Silver Creek High in Sellersburg, Indiana submitted a video that lobbied for a DIFFERENT school. They asked it be held at Henryville High School in Henryville, Indiana...which was torn apart by a tornado earlier this month.

Lady Antebellum went ahead and chose Henryville. Because of a previous commitment, they can't make the school's scheduled prom. So they decided to throw a BIGGER event on May 16th in nearby Louisville, Kentucky.









RECENTLY ENGAGED?
A new survey by a website called Tailored.com tried to figure out exactly what goes through a woman's head after her boyfriend finally PROPOSES. And the answers are all over the place. Here's the full breakdown...

26% say their first thought was, "Wow, the ring is amazing!"
23% first thought, "I can't wait to tell everyone."
14% thought, "I'm in shock, this was a complete surprise."
13% thought, "It's about damn time he asked."
9% thought, "I wish I was wearing a different outfit or put on makeup."
9% thought, "I wish I'd gotten a manicure, I can't take a photo of the ring with my nails like this."
And finally, 6% thought, "I don't like the ring."

So, when you add it up, 32% first think about the ring either positively or negatively...18% have negative thoughts about their appearance...37% have romantic emotional thoughts...and 19% have some amount of anger.









SEXTING!
A survey by the sex toy company Adam and Eve found that a large number of adults have tried sexting...and an even larger number are LIARS.

17% of adults admit that they've used their phones to send sexually explicit messages or naked pictures to someone.

Guilty.

57% of people say they've NEVER done it.

And 25% of Americans expect us to believe they've never even HEARD of sexting.

But maybe it's possible: According to Adam and Eve's resident sex expert, Dr. Kat Van Kirk, "I'm not surprised. Sexting is relatively new, and something a lot of older adults don't feel comfortable participating in."

No naked cougars.








WHO IS: ONE DIRECTION
One Direction have a hit on Q92 called "WHAT MAKES YOU BEAUTIFUL" The group was created on the British version of "X Factor". The five members initially auditioned as solo artists, but Simon Cowell turned them into a group at the suggestion of guest judge Nicole Scherzinger.

Their debut album, "Up All Night", just debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 chart...after selling 176,000 copies in the U.S. last week. They are the ONLY act EVER from the U.K. to debut at #1 with their first album.









READY FOR BIKINI SEASON?!
Hell, maybe you got it out this week!
Bathing suit season is coming FAST. Feel like you're ready? No? That's fine. Most other people aren't, either.

A new survey found 59% of Americans say they're not ready for bathing suit season. That breaks down into 67% of women and 50% of men.









USHER KNOWS WHAT YOU WANT
USHER knows what the world WANTS right now: Usher...a lot of Usher.

For starters, Usher wants to collaborate with ADELE. He says, "I think the world deserves an Usher and Adele record. That's what I think."
It's unclear if he's been wanting to do this for a while, or if he's just coattail-riding.

He has an album coming out sometime this year called "The Shanertance". (Hey Usher, doesn't the world deserve to know what the heck that means?)

And he's playing SUGAR RAY LEONARD in an upcoming boxing movie called "Hands of Stone"...but it won't hit theaters until next year.









MEN IN BLACK 3: PITBULL
PITBULL wrote the theme song for "Men in Black 3", which hits theaters on May 25th. The song is called "Back in Time", and it will hit the streets on Monday. WILL SMITH of course did the theme song for the first two "Men in Black" movies.









MORNING BOREDOM:
If I asked you if you want to see the Tantauco National Park in Chile, or Buffalo Niagara International Airport, you would say no. But what if I told you you're not ALLOWED to see them? Now you kinda want to, right?

I've got a link today to 10 different places you're not allowed to see on Google Maps. They've been blurred out, whited out, or completely erased. And yes, the Buffalo airport is one of them.

Others include the Royal Palace in Amsterdam, a dam in South Carolina, an Army facility in Utah where they test chemical weapons, and a mysterious, unknown Russian site in Siberia.

VENDING MACHINES GOING EXTINCT?
In addition to walking up hill both ways, home phones, VCRs, and Social Security, you might be telling your grandchildren someday about...the vending machine.

Because some people think vending machines are in danger of going extinct. Over a three-year period from 2007 to 2010, vending machines disappeared from more than 134,000 locations across the U.S.

Vending machines still sell a total of $42 billion worth of products...and while that seems like a LOT of money, it's DOWN 11% from 2007.

To try to save the vending machine, companies are experimenting with different products. That's how they came up with Redbox.

Some other products being tried in vending machines are live bait...and prescription pills.
