Wow. Coachella 2012 Tickets Sell Out In About 3 Hours…

To those planning on attending Coachella – this years festival (both weekends) has already sold out in just about 3 hours. Unfortunately, you’ll have to go about other routes to get tickets.

Nicki Minaj to Perform at 54th Annual Grammy Awards

Huge congrats to Nicki Minaj. Aside from being nominated for four Grammy’s this year, the Young Money artist is set to officially perform at the 54th Annual Grammy Awards on February 12th. As with most Grammy performances, I would expect the unexpected for her performance.

Unfortunately, as of now, she is the only hip hop-related performer at the award show – unless Bruno Mars brings out an artist. Other performers include Jason Aldean and Kelly Clarkson, Foo Fighters, Bruno Mars, and Taylor Swift. Yawn (In my opinion, at least). ***More performers are still yet to be announced, so we’ll see…

Also unfortunate – this will be the first time in four years that I don’t head out to LA for Grammy weekend (I know everyone is devastated). The Ironic thing is that all the shows & events surrounding the Grammy’s were always more fun & exciting then being at the actual Grammy show. You can read my Grammy Weekend recap from last year right here.
