Why should people with fancy game consoles have all the American Idol-like fun? If what you really wanna do is sing then all you need is a microphone for your computer, a browser, and a strong set of pipes — and this fabulous website:
Karaoke Party!
Karaoke Party challenges you to plug in your mic, pick a song, and then click "Sing."
I managed to sneak in a screening of
Baby Mama this weekend and was reminded that
Karaoke Revolution is a universal crowd pleaser. Without giving away any pivotal plot points of the movie I can reveal that Amy Poehler's character, the not-so-worldly Angie who Tina Fey's character Kate hires to carry her baby, spends ample time in Kate's apartment sharpening her Karaoke Revolution skills. The habit annoys Kate at first but eventually brings the two together when they join forces for a wicked "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" performance.
When two bizarre Internet sensations come together, it can be truly diabolical. To wit: The
"Chocolate Rain" deluge meets the

Singstar will be going on sale in the US starting November 13th. Thanks to the gaming gurus at
Kotaku, this announcement paired with the release of a

Sugar Publishing is having a karaoke party to celebrate our move to a bigger office (yay!) and I hope it's as rockin' as this one (minus the coffin). Seriously, who among us could turn down a Journey song, no matter how badly we sing? I wouldn't even be ironic about my love for them.
Yes, it's still
Wedding Season, and if your mailbox full of
invites is any indication, it's going to be a busy summer filled with fittings, dinners and my personal favorite, bachelorette parties. While we all know
geeky bride and groom cakes are all the rage, word is geeky bachelorette parties are on the rise as well. No, you aren't required to wear your geekiest tee shirt, or bring your laptop, but many video-game-loving ladiez opt to plan video game tournaments, karaoke festivals and Dance Dance Revolution competitions - mixed with a few cocktails and yummy treats of course!
I've been crushing on Paul Rudd ever since
Clueless. I mean, he's cute, he's funny, he can act, and — as I learned today — he can also rock some serious karaoke. On Friday night,
Of Montreal played a show at Studio B in Brooklyn, and the band took a break for a bit of hipster karaoke.
