    Miley Cyrus isn't looking to be a "conventional" role model, but that doesn't mean she's afraid to call out those who may be. The "Wrecking Ball" singer is on the September cover of Marie Claire magazine, and she's calling out the likes of Kendrick Lamar and Taylor Swift for promoting violence, when she's condemned for promoting sexuality.

  • Disney 'Descendants' Tops Billboard 200; Led Zeppelin, Drake Return to Top 10

    Another week and another soundtrack on top of the Billboard 200 as Descendants, the newest Disney TV movie, manages to get its musical half to no. 1. The compilation moved a total of 42,000 units, which was the lowest number of albums moved by a no. 1 so far during 2015. It may have been a slow sales week, but Disney's not going to complain about another high entry for one of its soundtracks (Teen Beach 2 cracked the Top 10 earlier this year). This is the fourth soundtrack to top the Billboard 200 so far during 2015-the most since 2009-as Descendants follows Empire, Furious 7 and Pitch Perfect 2. We'll see if another title joins that list by the end of the year.

Future reposted an Instagram showing DS2 next to 1989, praising the "legendary" "Bad Blood" singer, and soon after, Swift commented on his post -- which "made her day" -- and called herself a "huge fan" of Dirty Sprite 2.

  • Ryan Adams Plans to Cover Taylor Swift's '1989' in the Style of The Smiths

    Singer-songwriter Ryan Adams shared details on his forthcoming project to cover Taylor Swift's 1989 in the style of Manchester's The Smiths. Revealing a behind the scene glimpse into the project via Instagram, Adams captioned his latest creative endeavor as "1989 as played by The Smiths." Featuring well-loved tracks like "Style," "Welcome To New York," and "Blank Space," it can be presumed that Adams' revamp of her recordbreaking release will only increase the pop star's already monolithic appeal.

  • UK Court Ruling Essentially Makes iTunes, VHS-to-DVD Illegal

    The UK's High Court has passed down a ruling that essentially makes using iTunes one of the most prevalent criminal acts across the pond. Believe it or not, up until last year, the act of ripping a CD to iTunes was illegal in the UK. The new ruling reverses last year's easing of laws, thanks to complaints from music groups in the region.

  • Taylor Swift Fan Grabs Her During 1989 Tour Stop, 'Bad Blood' Singer Gets Pissed

  • Jill Scott Tops Slow Billboard 200, Taylor Swift Spends 40 Weeks in Top 10

    Jill Scott took advantage of a slower (if more competitive) week of album sales, coming in at no. 1 on the Billboard 200 for the second time in a row with her album 'Woman.' Although she can be please with the second no. 1 record in her career, the 62,000 equivalent copies she sold of her new set is less than half of what 'The Light Of The Sun' sold in its first week during 2011. 'Woman' marks the first no. 1 for a solo female performer in nearly five months.
