Palm Springs was once again a hot spot this past weekend, and while there were plenty of shirtless boys and illicit drug use, the reason was no circuit party—but Coachella!
The highs (and lows) of the weekend: Robyn killing it on day one; Cee Lo’s temper tantrum after hitting the stage 20 minutes late and having organizers cut his set after just four songs (Coachella is notoriously strict on show schedules); Arcade Fire’s roll-friendly performance with huge, glowing balls that flashed in time with the music; Scissor Sisters getting filthy in the dance tent; Lauryn Hill not leaving a crowd booing; Brandon Flowers (there as a solo artist and not the Killers frontman) performing Killers tracks; Kanye’s grand entrance; and Robert Downey Jr. (??) kicking it with the people.
There’s also the Internet buzz regarding rapper Lil B, who announced during his set that he’s naming his next album I’m Gay. But he’s not. He added, “I'm gonna do the most controversial thing in hip hop. I'm gonna show you that words don't mean shit. I'm gonna make an album called I'm Gay...Because gay means happy...I love women..but live life. We only have one life to live. Be happy." Umm…
