The Voice’s Josh Logan Talks Supernova, Stevie Wonder and Criticism Over His ‘Crazy’ Cover – As a veteran of 2006?s Rock Star: Supernova, Josh Logan knows better than any of his current Voice counterparts what national TV exposure can do for the career prospects of a working musician — and how important it is to capitalize on said momentum. “After Rock Star, I was definitely doing more high profile gigs.

Naya Rivera on Her First Kiss and Love for Robin Thicke – On her Glee costar, the late Cory Monteith: I have so many memories of Cory. This is a good one: two years ago, we were filming a scene and got off at nine o’clock. I said, ‘Do you want to get a drink? I’ll take you to this place that’s really cool, the Roof.’ So we go there and we were sitting in this bungalow by the fire for three and a half hours, drinking these great bourbon cocktails, chatting about life and having a blast. Then I drove him back to the Paramount parking lot, because that’s where his car was, and I played him a bunch of songs I was doing. He was also in a band, so he was always playing me their songs. It was a good day.” – Read more at Rolling Stone

Dancing’s Derek Hough: We Don’t Want to Use Amber’s Knees as a Crutch – We have the jazz and the Viennese waltz. For the jazz, I’m trying to figure out ways to make it intricate, fun and exciting.

There’s going to be some hand choreography. We had Tuesday off because Amber had to go to the doctor to get everything checked out, so we started Wednesday with the jazz and I’m thoroughly enjoying dancing it. It’s hard, but it’s fun. – Read more at – TV Guide
