Following the firing of their lead singer Scott Weiland in February, the Stone Temple Pilots have found a new frontman for their band -- and fans seem to be angry about the chosen replacement.

Linkin Park’s Chester Bennington claimed Weiland’s spot, and in an interview after his first performance with STP at the KROQ Weenie Roast in Los Angeles, he revealed how he came to join the group.

"Every band has it's own kind of vibe,” the 37-year-old singer said. “Stone Temple Pilots has this sexier, more classic rock feel to it. Linkin Park is a very modern, very tech-heavy type of band. I grew up listening to these guys. When this opportunity came up, it was just like a no-brainer."

Bennington plans on staying with Linkin Park in addition to joining STP, but fans seem to be having a hard time accepting him as the leader of the group.

After posting a link to the band’s new song “Out of Time” on their Facebook page, fans began lashing out at the addition of the new lead singer.

“I listened to this song,” one fan commented on Facebook. “It makes me wanna throw up. It was ok till the vocals kicked in. Linkin Park sucks, Chester sucks, and now STP sucks too. A damn shame.”

Wrote another: “Chester sounds like he's trying to do something he's not. It's terrible. Just like what everyone else said, Scott Weiland = STP and at least he's

This youngster can really wail!

Performing a song that is older than she is, this 14-year-old girl seems to hold nothing back while playing Eddie Van Halen’s 1978 track “Eruption” with ease.

According to Rolling Stone, “Eruption” started out as a practice song for Van Halen before concerts, and the guitarist credits a member of Led Zeppelin for his technique on the tune.

"I was watching Jimmy Page going [sings hammering guitar lick], like that, with one hand, in 'Heartbreaker,'” he said. “I thought, 'I can play like that, and you wouldn't know if I was using this finger or this one.’"

While rocker Jon Bon Jovi and Canadian boy wonder Justin Bieber might have a few things in common, one of them is not showing up late for shows.

In an interview with the Evening Standard, the 51-year-old New Jersey singer commented on Bieber’s concert punctuality during his March O2 Arena gig in London, where fans claimed he was two hours late. (According to a series of tweets by Bieber, he was only 40 minutes late due to “technical issues.”) Bon Jovi wasn't exactly kind to the Canadian pop star.

“Every generation has guys that do that, none of that is new,” Bon Jovi said. “They run the risk of disrespecting their audience members who have worked hard to pay for their ticket, to give you the permission to take two or three hours of their lives — or in that kid’s case, 80 minutes of their lives.”

He added, “Do it once, you can be forgiven. Do it enough times and shame on you. They won’t have you back. Then it just becomes a cliché. It’s really not cool — you’re an a--hole. Go to f---in’ work!”

Even though his words might be harsh, fans are rallying behind Bon Jovi and seem to agree that Bieber should start shows on time.

Upon learning about their six mentions in categories like Pop Video of the Year, MuchFACT Video of the Year, Video of the Year, Director of the Year, Your Fave Artist/Group and Your Fave Video, the band tweeted their excitement:

Just behind Marianas Trench, Toronto rapper Drake nabbed five nominations and Nova Scotia’s Classified received four nods.

The 2013 MMVAs are set to take over Toronto on June 16 with performances by Demi Lovato and Korean pop star PSY, who will also co-host the event. Both artists are also mentioned in the categories of International Video of the Year – Artist and Your Fave International Artist/Group.

Right now, fans can head here to vote for their favourite musicians in three categories, including, Your Fave Artist/Group, Your Fave Video and Your Fave International Artist/Group.

In 1998, Los Angeles rock band Thirty Seconds to Mars played their first show in Toronto. In a very candid interview with Yahoo! Canada Music, the group recalled their visit to the Great White North and why performing in Canada matters so much to them.

“Our first show in Toronto was in 1998 at the Horseshoe Tavern,” lead singer Jared Leto said. “It’s been a while now.”

“We were so excited,” drummer Shannon Leto added. “We were rehearsing down the street in this warehouse, getting ready for the show and we all got there and were so excited and there were like three people out there. It was great.”

This week, the band (consisting of brothers Jared and Shannon Leto and guitarist Tomo Milicevic) releases their fourth studio album, "Love Lust Faith + Dreams," and even though they’ve come a long way, they still remember their special Canadian fans.

YouTube phenom and invisible horse rider PSY has been announced as this year’s MuchMusic Video Awards co-host. The “Gentleman” himself will also perform during Toronto’s largest block party, and it seems like he’s excited to take over the city on June 16.

"I'm looking forward to co-hosting and performing at the MuchMusic Video Awards,” the 35-year-old singer said in a statement. “And I’m looking forward to seeing all my fans in Canada!"

Executive producer Sheila Sullivan says that the “Gangnam Style” hitmaker will “bring the party” to the event. We assume PSY will share the hosting duties with the MuchMusic VJs like LMFAO did last year.

“His explosive energy and fun approach to music is a great fit for the MMVAs, and our audience,” Sullivan said. “With PSY fronting the show, the biggest street party in the world just got that much louder.”

Last week, Demi Lovato was revealed as the show’s first performer, and just like with the “X Factor” judge’s upcoming appearance, fans can vote on what PSY will sing at the MMVAs between “Gangnam Style,” “Gentleman,” a combination of the two or his next single.

We think that the MMVA stage is the perfect place for a performance of “Gentleman,” especially if it’s the remix, which PSY’s manager Scooter Braun began teasing us with on May 13.

Was Mariah live, or was she Memorex? [photo: Fox]Mariah Carey is known as one of the greatest singers of all time. She was hired this year, for a whopping $18 million, to judge other singers on "American Idol." So when she gave a performance on Thursday night's "Idol" finale that seemed more appropriate for another talent show, "RuPaul's Drag Race" — that is, she appeared to be lip-synching for her life — well, it was not a tour de force, dahling.

Mariah's performance, which was actually pre-taped the night before the finale, featured the diva "singing" a medley of her greatest hits, including "Hero," "Vision of Love," "We Belong Together," "Make it Happen," and "My All."

But did she really make it happen? Was she really giving her all? It seemed like Mariah's onstage wind-machine was more operational than her microphone this Thursday.
