Madonna and Drake comment on Coachella kiss

Madonna is making major headlines after planting a kiss on Drake during her surprise appearance with the rapper at Coachella on Sunday.

Madonna hit center stage about halfway through the rapper’s set to perform two hits: 1994’s “Human Nature” and 2005’s “Hung Up.”

As she wrapped up her surprise “mini-set”, Madonna made her way over to Drake and gave him a long kiss as he was seated in a chair on stage.

“Bitch, I'm Madonna," the singer said as she made her exit as Drake wiped away her lipstick and laughed, "What the fuck just happened?"

Madonna faced a backlash from some fans and she responded on Instagram: “If you don't like me and still watch everything I do... B**** you're a fan.”

Music fans and the media have been speculating on Drake’s reaction to the kiss, as he wiped his mouth afterwards with a surprised look on his face.

“Don't misinterpret my shock!!,” wrote the rapper on Instagram. “I got to make out with the queen Madonna and I feel 💯 about that forever. Thank you @madonna”

Madonna is currently making the rounds to promote her recently-released album, “Rebel Heart.”

VIDEO: Drake joins Justin Bieber in Toronto

Justin Bieber brought his Believe tour to Toronto Saturday for a show at the Rogers Centre.

The pop superstar was joined by special guest, fellow Canadian and hometown boy, Drake to perform “Right Here” and “The Motto.”

“I’ll tell you, there’s very few people out there in the world that are as talented and as incredible as this gentleman right here,” said Drake. “I want to thank you for making my childhood dream, which was my first opportunity to perform at the Skydome, so thank you, my man.”

The Rogers Centre opened in 1989 as the Skydome; it was renamed in 2005 following a corporate ownership change.

Drake announces 2012 North American tour

Drake has announced his 2012 Club Paradise tour of North America in support of his new album, “Take Care.”

MTV reports the 17-city headlining tour kicks off on Valentine's Day in Miami and runs through March 11, and will be followed by a series of European dates.

Drake will be joined on the road by Kendrick Lamar and A$AP Rocky.

"I spent a lot of time out there [in Toronto]; that's what this album is about," Drake recently explained to MTV. "That's what I'm gonna showcase. It's the same thing with the tour: I wanna bring Kendrick, I wanna bring A$AP, those are guys that I love. It has nothing to do with people on my label," he added. "Tyga's out, Nicki's [Minaj] working on an album and everybody else is doing their thing on the road with Wayne or with Wayne in the studio, so I just sort of showcased the music that I happen to love right now, and those are the two guys that I'm bringing out."

"I fought for this tour, I fought really hard for this tour because, of course, they want me to go get the big bucks, go into the stadiums and cash out," Drake revealed to MTV News in October about the decision to play more intimate shows.

Justin Bieber working on next album with Drake, Kanye West

Justin Bieber is out promoting his new Christmas album “Under The Mistletoe,” which is due next week.

But he’s already talking about what’s next.

Justin tells UK radio station Capital FM that he is working with Kanye West and Drake on his next album, “Believe.”

"I'm working with a lot of cool people. I'm working with Kanye. Drake is going to work on the album with me," he said. "I just learned about picking the right songs and making sure that I create a sound that people aren't really used to hearing, so that it's new and fun and people enjoy it."

Bieber tells the station that “Believe” should come out in early 2012.

In the meantime, Justin has been confirmed to perform at the 2011 American Music Awards in Los Angeles on November 20; the show will be broadcast by CBS, starting at 8:00 PM ET/PT.
