Shaping up to be a great big "Voice" finale next week with special guests and musical performances from Pitbull, Christina Aquilera, Bruno Mars and even CHER...but the real question is who's the next VOICE? Michelle/Danielle/Swon Brothers...we shall see!
Well, now I just feel bad that I've frequently said Re: Mumford & Sons - that I'm not a fan. After complaining of "feeling unwell" for days, Mumford & Sons bassist Ted Dwane was rushed to the hospital this week where doctors performed emergency surgery after discovering a blood clot on his brain. Thankfully, they got it in time and a quick recovery is expected...3 shows, however, were cancelled but will be rescheduled as soon as possible.
Finally, pop star Demi Lovato wants her very own Barbie Doll...don't we all kid. She tweeted that she's collected Barbies her whole life and for her 21st birthday would love to have one made in ...

Taylor Swift has been busy popping up everywhere. She made a guest appearance on the Voice this past Monday, suprising Usher's girl Michelle as she was practicing one of Taylor's songs...AND, she channeled her inner Marianne Faithful with the Rolling Stones performing "As Tears Go By" with Mick and the Band as they continue their '50 and Counting Tour'.
Former Police frontman, Sting, is charting a new musical course with his next album, scheduled for release September 24th entitled "The Last Ship." It'll feature songs written for a new musical of the same name. I know don't about you but I kinda wish he'd go back on the force...
Finally, the reunited Black Sabbath - Ozzy, Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler will be on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon this Monday as they continue their promotional blitz for the new CD and upcoming tour. Hopefully there's a translator.

I've never been in the Kiss Army but wonder how many people still are? If you're still as loyal as ever to the band you'll be pleased to know that Gne Simmons recently shared this on Swedish TV - "We're having a great time, but one day it will end and I hope on the day that we end, we end on a high note instead of going down. You don't wanna stay one day longer than when it's great; you wanna be great 'til the end." He added that Kiss has at least another 5-10 years left at the most.
In other music news...Rock and Roll Hall of Famers the EAGLES have added a dozen more US concert dates to their History of Eagles Tour...they're in Philly July 16th at Wells Fargo Center...yes, I'm tempted.
Finally, very sad news involving the super-talented Bruno Mars whose mother Bernadette Hernandez, died ...

Beyonce will headline "The Women's Concert for Change," a new campaign founded by Gucci to raise funds and awareness for female empowerment around the world. Also on the bill Ellie Goulding, Florence + the Machine, Jay Z, Jennifer Lopez, John Legend and Timbaland, Madonna and more. The global concert event will be broadcast live on June 1 to over 175 countries and air in London on June 2nd. I think this audience will be forwarned...DO not even attempt to give Beyone a little pat on the butt (like that dude in Copenhagen)!
R&B SuperStar Usher has been added to the lineup of tonight's "Healing the Heartland: Relief Benefit Concert" organized and headlined by his fellow "The Voice" judge/mentor Blake Shelton.

"Bruce Springsteen and I" - do you know about this? Ridley Scott's fancentric film will be released July 22nd. A great film maker capturing the "relationship between a recording artist and the impact he has on those who connect so profoundly with his music." The film is totally fan-driven and will include a plethora of powerful performances by Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band! SWEET!
Staying in Jersey, the family feud between Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora continues...Richie is totally out but is not happy with a few things the Jon has been quoted as saying, including "you have a choice. You either figure it out, go and grow,not only survive but thrive - or you say I hate my brother and I'm gonna quit the band." Richie Sambora shot back in an interview with the Daily Mail saying "My opinion is Jon wants to see if he ...
