Pearl
Jam's Eddie Vedder and
the Dixie Chicks' Natalie
Maines were the
two big headliners at
the West Memphis Three
benefit in Little Rock,
Arkansas on Saturday
night (Aug. 28). But
lo and behold, some
other famous faces showed
up at Robinson Hall
to lend their support
to overturning the murder
convictions of the three
locals who many feel
are innocent.
In
addition to a set by
Ben Harper, Joseph Arthur
and Dhani (son of George)
Harrison's band Fistful
of Mercy, the "Voices
For Justice" event
found, at one point,
the unusual trio of
actor Johnny Depp (yes,
that Johnny Depp, on
guitar no less), Eddie
Vedder and Patti Smith
sharing a song, Smith's
"Dancing Barefoot,"
before everyone involved
hopped on the stage
for the very appropriate
Smith tune "People
Have The Power."

Snoop
Surprises Michael Jackson Fans in Brooklyn
One
day after headlining Rock the Bells in New
York, Snoop Dogg made a surprise stop at Spike
Lee's birthday party for Michael Jackson Sunday
afternoon in Brooklyn's Prospect Park. The
rap star spit his classic "Gin and Juice"
over Jackson's "Butterflies" and
was followed by fellow West Coast vet Warren
G, who performed "Regulators" for
hundreds of MJ fans. Other highlights from
the party included a Reverend Al Sharpton-led
moment of silence for Jackson and Hurricane
Katrina victims, and a snazzily dressed Jackson
fan moonwalking atop a port-a-potty. Jackson
would have turned 52.

Blink-182 Cracks
Crude Obama Joke at Leeds Festival
Pop-punk
trio blink-182 normally offers a series of puerile
jokes at their live shows, but singer-guitarist
Tom DeLonge raised eyebrows with a context-free
crack at President Barack Obama while headlining
the U.K.'s Leeds Festival on Saturday (Aug. 28),
according to Spinner. DeLonge told the crowd that
he was "going to go down on Barack Obama"
during a performance of "Anthem Part Two."
The band also cursed off Reading Festival, which
took place the previous day (Aug. 27) in the U.K.

Taylor Swift
Makes Sparkling Hot 100 Entrance with 'Mine'
And, of course, the couple lives happily ever
after -- getting married, having a son, then getting
pregnant again with their second baby boy. It
ends with the two boys enjoying themselves as
they jump on their parents' bed while Swift and
her husband blissfully look on.
U2 Back in Action, Jay-Z Memoir Due in Nov.
U2 has returned from a two-month absence following
Bono's back surgery. They performed in Italy on
Friday, debuting the songs "Glastonbury"
and "North Star".
Jay-Z's memoir "Decoded" will finally
hit book shelves on Nov. 16 even though it's been
finished for several years, and Arcade Fire has
scored a No. 1 in the UK with their new album
"The Suburbs". In New Noise, Avenged
Sevenfold talks about the title single from their
chart-topping album "Nightmare".
Carrie Underwood's
wedding was one of the most special days of her
life, but it will likely become fodder for jokes
when she and Brad Paisley host the Country Music
Association Awards for the third year in a row.
The two will anchor the Nov. 10 ceremony in Nashville.
