Kevin Federline: From Fat to Fit

MetroLyrics — Sun, 13 Dec 2009 18:53:19 +0000

You’ve probably seen the now-famous image above and others documenting Kevin Federline’s transition from “K-Fed” to “K-Fat,” but with the help of Celebrity Fit Club on VH1, he’s really slimmed down.

According to Yahoo’s OMG, “Most of that fat is apparently in the past now: Federline has reportedly lost 50 pounds as a contestant on the next season of VH1′s Celebrity Fit Club, airing in January..”

The big question now is, what will Britney Spears’ ex do with his slimmed-down form and the exposure he gets on the reality show? Playing with Fire Part II?

Music for a Road Trip Volume 3: Dancing to Stay Awake

MetroLyrics — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 18:39:26 +0000

There’s a moment in even the best road trip when sitting in a car starts lulling you to sleep. Especially when you’re driving in the winter months and it gets dark between 5 and 6pm. The night sky passing by the windows and the sound of the wheels on the road are so soothing that if you want to stay awake for the drive, it takes a bouncy or driving beat to wake you up and keep you going. Here are some of the songs we’re using to keep our eyes open as we drive across Texas tonight…

- Hung Up by Madonna
- SexyBack by Justin Timberlake
- Groove is in the Heart by Deee-Lite
- Cyclone by Baby Bash
- Womanizer by Britney Spears
- Bad Romance by Lady GaGa
- My Humps by The Black Eyed Peas
- Umbrella by Rhianna
- Single Ladies by Beyonce
- Fever by Kylie Minogue
- Momma’s Boy by Chromeo

Thus concludes the road trip playlist series. What would you put on your fantasy road trip playlist? We know we left out a ton!

Everyone’s got their own ideas of what the best sing-along-songs for the car are, and we’d love to know yours. Did we miss something obvious? There are still a lot of miles to go before home!

Six Degrees of this week’s charts: Paramore to Lady Gaga

MetroLyrics — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 14:00:07 +0000

Paramore’s song Ignorance is featured on the MetroLyrics home page this week on the Billboard chart, which is topped by Lady GaGa’s Paparazzi. After reading the lyrics to Ignorance, I wondered how difficult it would be to link the two in a lyrical game of Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon. Here we go:

Degree ONE- From Ignorance: “Ignorance is your new best friend“

Degree TWO- From “My Best Friend’s Girl” by The Cars: “My best friend‘s girlfriend“

Degree THREE- From “Girlfriend” by Avril Lavigne: “Hey, hey, you, you, I don’t like your girlfriend“

Degree FOUR- From “Pinhead” by The Ramones: “I just met a nurse that I could go for, Gabba Gabba Hey“

Degree FIVE- From “Lace and Leather” by Britney Spears: “baby let’s go, Watch me apply the pressure, all decked in lace and leather“

Degree SIX- From Paparazzi: “Leather and jeans, garage glamorous”

What do you think? Too much of a stretch? But did you ever think about The Ramones and Britney Spears being only one degree removed before?
