- Madonna got booed while performing in New Orleans after telling the audience to "Vote for Obama." The singer was heckled when she asked, “Who’s registered to vote?” followed by “I don’t care who you vote for as long as you vote for Obama.” After fans started to walk out, she tried to recover by saying ”Seriously, I don’t care who you vote for… Do not take this privilege for granted. Go vote.”

- Adam Levine defended his fellow "Voice" judge Christina Aguilera, who has been critiqued for her body, saying: “People shouldn’t say those kinds of things. Because, ‘F**k you.’ Come on, guys.

- Meanwhile, Christina Aguilera is looking to get back into the acting game--she's just waiting for the perfect "crackhead" role. "I want it to be honest and genuine in expanding my wings and doing something really, really different. A crackhead on the street or a drug addict. Or something crazy and meaty and juicy. Something that really took me out of myself," Aguilera said at an industry panel this week.
