Photographer Reportedly Crashes Into Justin Bieber

While Diana was killed as a result of a crash while she was being chased by photographers, Bieber's run-in seems to be less dramatic with reports that the accident occurred when the popstar hit his brakes after he spotted the photographer following his Ferrari.

ABC Radio reports that it appears that it was only a minor traffic accident and Bieber's Ferrari was only scratched. Following the accident, the upset popstar took to twitter to share his frustration over the incident.

He tweeted, "There should be laws against what I just experienced. We should have learned from the death of Princess Diana. I don't have a problem with Paparazzi but when they act recklessly they put us all in danger."

Weird Al Spoofs Mad Men and Game Of Thrones Theme Songs

In the segment, the Mandatory Fun singer added his own spin to the opening theme of Mad Men, singing "Jon Hamm's never won an Emmy/Oh, who cares, he's still Jon-freaking-Hamm." Throw to a shot of Hamm agreeing, yes, he is in fact Jon-freaking-Hamm.

He then revamped the themes to Modern Family, Scandal and Homeland singing "Inigo Montoya grew a beard!" The best moment though had to be his take on the Game of Thrones theme song. Though he did not dedicate the nearly two-minute long theme to Peter Dinklage (that's already been done) he did draw attention to GoT's staples: dragons and boobs. "Here come dragons galore/And some boobs," he sang. "OK, to be fair, there's way more boobs."

He then George RR Martin, the man behind A Song of Ice and Fire series, which is the inspiration for the HBO show, to get writing and quick to finish the last books.

Luke Bryan Puts Big Smile On 4-Year-Old Fan's Face

Days later, Riley's mother sent a letter to Albany, N.Y. radio station WGNA to explain what it was like attending the concert with her son, and how much Bryan's music affects Riley.

"When Riley pretends to be Luke, he is a whole other person," his mother Marjorie wrote. "He's not afraid or shy. He has confidence and feels free. Every time Luke turned his hat around during the concert, so did Riley. On our way out of the show, Riley pulled me down and said 'I didn't know all the songs mommy. I need to learn all the songs.' He just loves music. Sorry for such a long letter, but I just want Luke and all other artists to know that their music is a powerful thing and truly helps those with disabilities to express themselves and get through rough parts of their day."

Moved by the story, the station invited Riley and his mother into the studio. They had forwarded the letter to Bryan, who then called in during the visit to speak with Riley directly.

Bryan said that during the concert, he was initially intrigued by the message on the shirt (which he admitted seeing from the stage). And later, he was truly moved once he found out what that message meant. "I'm kinda having some tears on the bus here," Bryan admitted.

During the call, Riley can be seen bouncing around the studio with a big smile on his face. Watch it all unfold here.

"I've spent my fair share of time at Losers (Bar & Grill) in Nashville," Young admitted in a press release.

Kellie Pickler Discusses Next Album

"I'm in the whole songwriting and song-picking process," she told Billboard. "We're in the very early stages of working on it. It's always great to have new music out-to freshen up the set list, and it's exciting for the country fans. They are always eager to have new music."

Pickler said when she works on an album, she typically lives with the music for a year. "Then you send it off for the copies to be made, and the artwork to be produced and distributed. That takes months," she said. "So you've lived with the album for almost a year before anyone hears it. Then, by the time it comes out, you're ready for the next one, because you've sung it a million times-but not for anyone outside of your circle."

While she didn't give any clues as to the direction she's headed, she did reveal what it was like to perform with Kenny Rogers last October. Read about that here.
