He's really got it out for her, doesn't he?

Moby has once again taken a bizarre, sort-of-but-not-really dig at Miz Britney Spears, by claiming that her music, as well as Ke$ha's, shouldn't be labeled as such!

He explains:

"It's fun, but I don't think of it as music. It's manufactured. I appreciate it as a pop culture phenomenon and some of the songs I like if I hear them in a shopping mall or something, but it doesn't function as music for me. Music is something that communicates emotion and integrity in a really interesting, direct way, and when I listen to the pop music you're describing, it's hyper-produced corporate product. That isn't really even a criticism, but I just think calling it music is a misnomer."

Well, to each his own, we suppose!

But we think it's pretty unfair to pigeon-hole an entire genre and discredit its ability to express emotion just because of how it's produced!

We're sure that there's a lot of people out there that would listen to what he produces and not consider it music, as well! No need to single anyone out and make those kind of statements!

What do U think of Moby's comments?

Smart move!

After reports that employees at Flavor Flav's Chicken restaurant in Clinton, IA, were not getting paid, the reality star is pulling his name from the establishment, and claims that his business partner, Nick Cimino, "mismanaged" the business and now he has a "bad reputation!"

He explains:

"I had a licensing agreement with Nick Cimino and that's all we had. It was his business to run from there and the business was not run right. Let me be straight up with you, I went up inside there on April 2 and I found potato salad that expired on February 28. And it's then when I realized I can't do business with this man and I really hope no one ate those potatoes."

GEESH! We hope they didn't, either!

What the hell? That's effing disgusting!

We're glad to hear that he's pulling out of this mess! Hopefully, this will be enough of an incentive for the management to get their shiz together - OR they'll just shut it down!

Sounds like a disaster! Ugh.

Wow! This could explain why his kids and mom didn't think that it was him!

Source close to the production of Michael Jackson's posthumous album, Michael, claim that the singer was apparently so concerned about his new material being leaked before it was released that he sang a portion of the songs over VOICEMAIL directly to his producers!

The insider explains:

"A large chunk of the album came from voice mails. Michael was certain new stuff would get out so he decided to sing lyrics down the phone. After Michael's death last year there were question marks over whether the messages would be able to be used. Record bosses were worried whether it would come off at all. Luckily it did, but it hasn't been an easy process."

WTF?

Well no wonder there's so much confusion over authenticity!

We're surprised that they were able to salvage as much as they did!

Unbelievable. Couldn't there have been an easier way to record the vocals privately?

Just another reason they should have never tried to release any new material to begin with!

What do U think?? Should Michael be released??
