One of the year's biggest music successes wasn't defined by millions of record sales, arena tours or even a controversial headline. He simply released a music video.
Korean entertainer Psy became a worldwide sensation with his video for "Gangnam Style," a cheeky commentary on a wealthy Korean district in South Korea rapped entirely in Korean. It's humorous, over-the-top and includes a signature dance move that rivals the popularity of the Macarena.
Since the video's release in July, the video has surpassed Justin Bieber's "Baby" as the most-viewed clip on the internet, raking in approximately 990,900,000 views and counting.
By way of Australia, musician Gotye also hit it big this year with a hit single "Somebody That I Used to Know." Although strong sales helped bolster Wally De Backer's success, the 350 million views on YouTube for the music video also did wonders for the band's popularity. So much so that...

"Dancing with the Stars" may have just found its next contestant with Olympian Michael Phelps.
Competitor Ryan Lochte has floated the idea of competing on "Dancing with the Stars" with Phelps to continue the friendly competition and media attention. In an interview with Us Weekly, Phelps did not shoot down the possibility of going on the reality show now that he is retired.
"I haven't really been known for my dancing. I know everyone who's done it - I've talked to [speed skater Apolo Anton Ohno] and [swimmer Natalie Coughlin] about it, and they said they've enjoyed it and had a blast. I won't say I'm ruling anything out, who knows?"
If he could pick any partner, regardless of their pro or celebrity status, Phelps would choose Coughlin, saying, "She's gone through it all before and Natalie and I have been on a lot of teams together. She literally couldn't stop talking about how much fun the show was.

Terry O'Quinn as Gavin Doran in "666 Park Avenue" (ABC/Andrew Eccles)
ABC‘s slate of new shows for fall has a strange flavor to it, and it’s going to be a bumpy ride. The network has about as many new shows as returning ones (if you count all the midseasons), and a good percentage of the returning offerings are a year old or less, making this look a bit like a rebuilding year.
Not only is it a rebuilding year, but it’s the year of bringing back every actor and actress who ever had a decent run on a show before. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a network’s new season slate that was so crammed with people returning from something else. If you can’t make it good, I suppose, make sure viewers recognize the faces.

The Fall TV Season presentations for all the new network shows take place this week with the third one announced. Here's a full breakdown of which concepts have made the final list over on ABC.
An odd year for the once mighty juggernaut which can still pack 'em in. It had surprise success stories with "Once Upon a Time" and "Revenge", the latter becoming an unexpected international hit, and several shows have gotten renewals despite more modest numbers. Still, with it battling with NBC for the third and fourth position overall, the network has to introduce ten shows over the course of the season in the hope of getting a few stickers.
Several other pilots didn't make the final cut and won't be seen include the fashion label dynasty soap "Americana", ABC's update of the 90's "Beauty and the Beast" TV series, the Roland Emmerich-produced thriller "Dark Horse", the...

Bachelor Pad's third episode opens with another interesting competition - synchronized swimming! The housemates have to learn and perform a synchronized swimming routine in front of a team of judges who will assess them on technical ability, effort and showmanship. They will perform in teams (dressed in the appropriate synchronized swimming costumes which means lots of colour and flowers for the girls and Speedos for the boys!) and the best man and woman will both get a rose. Olympian Karen Rosolowski joins last season's Bachelor Pad winners Dave Good and Natalie Getz to judge the routines.

'Girlicious' Star -- That Was Cocaine In My Gucci Purse

Mejia finally pled guilty to felony drug possession in L.A. County Superior Court -- but the judgment was deferred ... meaning if she manages to stay away from the wrong side of the law for 18 months, the charge will be wiped from her record.

U.S. pop star Natalie Mejia has escaped jail after pleading guilty to a drugs charge stemming from an arrest in March. The singer, who shot to fame after appearing in The Pussycat Dolls reality TV show Girlicious, was pulled over for speeding in Glendale, California and later arrested after cops searched the car and allegedly found a dozen bags of cocaine in her handbag.
Mejia was charged with felony drug possession, despite insisting she had no idea how the bags had made their way into her purse. She maintained her innocence during a hearing in April, but at an appearance in Los Angeles County Superior Court on Wednesday, October 6, Mejia changed her plea to guilty, according to TMZ.com.
However, the charge will be wiped from her record if the singer stays out of police trouble for the next 18 months.

Natalie Mejia has taken a step in the right direction: She admits it was her purse that had cocaine in it. The Girlicious singer has pulled a 180 and pleaded guilty to felony drug possession for her March arrest in Los Angeles, when cops searched her Gucci bag during a traffic stop and found 13 nondesigner baggies of cocaine. The felony rap carries automatic probation, and Mejia will avoid jail time if she keeps her nose clean, so to speak. After 18 months of good behavior, the charge will be cleared from her record. In the meantime, Mejia and pals better find something more constructive to do when "2 in the Morning" comes calling.
