Blink-182's Mark Hoppus details 'awful' date with Melissa Joan Hart in new memoir. Fahrenheit-182 (available April 8)
Blink-182's bassist and vocalist Mark Hoppus did not find magic with Melissa Joan Hart when they went on a date. But that very same night, he did fall in love with the woman who would become his wife. So in a way, the rocker did live happily ever after.
Hoppus details his "awful" date with the Sabrina the Teenage Witch actress more than 25 years ago. He reveals that, after they failed to connect over dinner, he cut it short, only to end up talking on the phone all night long with MTV booker Skye Everly. And that's where the real magic happened — Hoppus and Everly fell in love, got married in 2000, and had a son, Jack Hoppus, two years later.

Thousands Petition To Have Tim Lambesis Investigated For Animal Cruelty
The controversies just won’t seem to let up for Tim Lambesis. A petition is gaining traction that’s urging authorities to investigate Lambesis, the lead singer of As I Lay Dying, for alleged animal cruelty. Home surveillance footage surfaced earlier this year that reportedly showed Lambesis kicking and hitting his dog. The petition, hosted on Care2, was near its 70-thousand goal as of last night. It calls for justice and emphasizes the need for Lambesis to undergo intensive psychological treatment, something the rest of the defunct-for-now band might agree with considering they all quit late last year.

Pete Best Is Retiring!!!
I don't care what Don McLean sang in "American Pie" . . . this past Saturday, April 5th, 2025, is the REAL day the music died.
Because it was the day that original Beatles drummer Pete Best announced his retirement.
Pete's Brother actually announced it in a Tweet, saying, quote, "Well what an absolutely wonderful ride we've had. However, everything comes to pass.
"My brother Pete Best has announced today he is retiring from personal appearances and performing with the group. His daughter has informed me it's due to personal circumstances."
The "group" he's referring to is undoubtedly The Pete Best Band . . . whom we must now figure out how to live without.
FYI, Pete and his family still run the Casbah Coffee Club, which is an early venue that the Beatles called home. It was opened by Pete's mother in 1959.
There are four rooms you can rent out on Airbnb: The Lennon Suite, the McCartney Suite, the Harrison Suite and the BEST Suite.
There is NOT a Ringo Suite.
