Lucky in Love if You LOVE music...

KINGS OF LEON and ARCTIC MONKEYS fans are right up there, too. Radiohead fans come in 6th, Foo Fighters 8th, Nirvana 13th, Red Hot Chili Peppers 16th, Linkin Park 19th and Metallica 20th.

Roast & a dig


Comedy Central's next roast victim will be CHARLIE SHEEN. The roast will tape September 10th, and will air on September 19th, which just happens to be the same night that ASHTON KUTCHER makes his debut on "Two and a Half Men". Obviously, this is NOT a coincidence. The prospect of stealing some attention away from the season premiere of the new "Two and a Half Men" MUST have played a role in Charlie's decision to do the roast but at least for now, he isn't admitting to it. In the press release, Charlie said, quote, "You could say I've been providing kindling for this Roast for a while. It's time to light it up. It's going to be epic." For what it's worth, Comedy Central has added this tease: Quote, "Charlie has assured us that nothing will be off limits in this roast, which scares even us." Yeah, that's nice. But the REAL challenge for the roasters . . . who haven't been announced yet . . . is coming up with fresh jokes about Charlie Sheen, who's been ridiculed by everyone everywhere for the past six months. Also interesting... Charlie replaces KID ROCK, who was supposed to be Comedy Central's next target. He had to back out because of a scheduling conflict.

Kareem is SMASHING!

Well, would you believe it if you heard it from NBA legend KAREEM ABDUL-JABBAR? As strange as it is, Kareem appears in a video promo for the Pumpkins, in which he smashes a pumpkin . . . by DUNKING it . . . and says, quote, "Check out the new Smashing Pumpkins album 'Oceania', it's coming soon."
