Taylor Swift wants justice after a sting operation in Idaho revealed that a little sports bar was totally cheating her out of ... a few dollars a month.
Swift has attached herself to a copyright infringement lawsuit spearheaded by BMI -- the enforcer of music royalties.
According to a lawyer connected to the case, BMI deployed an "agent" to go on a recon mission at The Sports Cellar bar sometime last year, and the agent noticed the bar was playing music -- including Taylor's stuff -- that they hadn't paid for the right to play.
We're told they even used the allegedly stolen music for Karaoke!!!! Have they no shame?!
Swift and co. are suing for unspecified damages -- but compared to the millions she's raking in right now, this thing in Idaho is totally small potatoes.
A crime against Rihanna was committed during karaoke at the Saddle Ranch last night -- some wannabes absolutely butchered one of her songs -- and this time, Chris Brown was a witness.
Though a group of girls totally assaulted RiRi's song "Umbrella," Brown appeared unfazed and continued talking with a group of chicks at the Sunset Strip bar.
The only thing uglier than Chuck Liddell's first round TKO by Mauricio "Shogun" Rua was his Steel Panther performance at the Key Club last night with Boston Red Sox's Brad Penny and Washington Redskin Chris Cooley. Just don't tell Chuck we said that...
Just because you play for a team called the Colts doesn't make you a country singer -- but Peyton Manning tried anyway.
Peyton -- dressed in sensible pair of khakis and a polo shirt -- got a drunken crowd roaring at a bar in Key West, as he and Kenny Chesney busted out a version of "You Never Even Called Me By My Name" by David Allen Coe.
The singing wasn't horrible -- but the faces he makes are priceless.
Paris Hilton has Bette Davis' eyes -- and apparently her voice too.
Mess Hilton was at Sundance on Sunday, torturing attendees with her vocal stylings at a private party. First the world had to endure her album, now she's back to throw salt on the wounds!
What's an "Idol" fan to do while they wait for the glory that is Simon's soul-crushing remarks about a person's warbling? They could just hang out in creepy karaoke bars and heckle the patrons, or to keep from being beat up, they could pick up a copy of "SingStar" for their PlayStation 3.
Hitting stores November 13, SingStar gives everyone a chance to become the pop star they were destined not to be. Each game is packed with two microphones, so you and a friend can perform along with your favorites. Artists include U2, David Bowie, Franz Ferdinand, The Killers, OutKast, Weezer and the TMZ's favorite train wreck, Britney Spears. For the true exhibitionist, if you have an EyeToy camera attached to your PlayStation 3, you can tape your best performance and upload it for all the world to see on My SingStar, the SingStar community.
So get your friends together, create a faux contest, and judge each other harshly for your horrible singing. It's the "American Idol" way!
