A guy who once tried to make it into ‘American Idol’ by comparing himself to clay Aiken has just been busted for sending sexually suggestive messages to a 12-year old boy and even propositioning a 10-year old while volunteering at a Brooklyn elementary school. 23-year old Colin Leahy, who auditioned on season 3 of AI, was arrested by cops last week and charged with 2 counts of endangering the welfare of a child. He was arraigned and released on his own recognizance. If you ask me, he should have stayed in prison. Sure, he didn’t do anything physical yet but you never know when he would.

Radiohead’s free release may have been a one-time thing but that’s not the case for Nine Inch Nails. Front man Trent Reznor hassurprisingly posted the new full length album ‘The Slip’ online as a DRM-free digital download. A physical product will be available in July. On the band’s official site, Trent says “thank you for your continued and loyal support over the years - this one’s on me.” This is their second surprise album released by Trent since his band’s contract with Interscope expired last fall. He has been a vocal opponent of corporate music’s so-called traditional practices. He has been quoted in the past saying “As a reward for being a ‘true fan’ you get ripped off.”
