Mere minutes after collecting his unfair and disappointing score of 16/30 for dancing the Viennese Waltz as his debut dance routine on Dancing with the Stars, Michael Bolton rushed from the DWTS studios to The Grove next door and performed at an outdoor concert, Songs for Hope, to raise awareness for breast cancer research.

Chelsie Hightower, his partner on DWTS, joined him on stage between songs to urge the audience to vote for the duo known as Team Bolt Tower.

You may not have heard of Peter Gene Hernandez but by now, you probably have heard of Bruno Mars, Peter’s stage name.

This young 24-year old phenom and fellow Libra is known for lending his vocals and co-writing the hooks for the songs Nothin’ on You by B.o.B, and Billionaire by Travie McCoy. He also co-wrote the international hits Right Round by Flo Rida and Wavin’ Flag by K’naan.

As if those weren’t impressive accomplishment on their own, Mars is debuting his own album, Doo-Wops & Hooligans, on October 5.

I am sure you have heard his hit single, Just the Way You Are which has so far peaked at number three on the Billboard Hot 100. Mars’ career is about to explode to the moon as he will open for Maroon 5 on the fall leg of the Hands All Over Tour starting October 6. Mars will also co-headline with Travie McCoy on a European tour starting October 18.

Mars performed several of his songs at The Grove Friday and @KoolerBeans was there to record the show. Thank you KoolerBeans for sharing your videos of Mars’ performance with CelebMagnet!

Katelyn Epperly Of American Idol Performs At The Grove [Video] EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW

  Katelyn Epperly was just ever-so-slightly edged out of American Idol‘s Top 12 last season by some much less talented singers. Oh, what could have possibly been had she not been shockingly ousted some four months ago on March 11.

We will never know how far she could have eventually gone had she secured one of the all-important Top 12 spots for herself. Perhaps her voice could have helped avoid some of the dull drab associated with Season 9 after her and other notable early ousters.

I recently caught up with the extremely poised and beautiful 20-year old singer, songwriter and pianist when she performed at The Grove; Katelyn’s first show in Los Angeles since her run on Idol ended.

Ironically, The Grove is adjacent to the studios from where Idol is broadcast. That proximity did not seem to phase Katelyn as she gave one moving vocal performance after another, to an audience which continued to grow in size as Katelyn sang on.

I will let Katelyn herself tell you what she has been up to since her Idol days in this video interview:

You can keep track of her shows by following her on Twitter: @iamK_Epperly. Meanwhile, enjoy these videos; they are the songs she performed at The Grove July 18, 2010.

So, if you’re a fan, or the parent of a teenage daughter, be sure to mark your calendars and be at The Grove by 3 PM this Saturday. This will be a once in a lifetime opportunity to see Jonas Brothers, up close and personal, kicking-off their summer tour with the help of some “very special guests”.
