THE HOLLYWOOD VAMPIRES LOOK LIKE THE REAL THING

The Hollywood Vampires made a rare public appearance at the Grammys. Core members Johnny Depp, Joe Perry, and Alice Cooper originally formed the group to honor the music of rock stars who died from “excess.” Their first show was at The Roxy in September. Guest performers are always invited and so far have included Marilyn Manson, Duff McKagen, and Perry Farrell. Johnny’s filming schedule keeps them juggling times for recording and concerts.

WILL SINGLE STEVEN TYLER TURN TO “GROUPIES” OR MATCH.COM?

Steven Tyler is getting along better with his Aerosmith bandmembers since he split with his girlfriend Erin Brady. His bandmates, (including Joe Perry, above) accused Erin of being a troublemaker and getting Steven back into drugs, while HER friends insist she kept him OFF drugs. Either way, for some reason Steven’s bandmates never warmed up to Erin and they’re happier when she’s not around. Of course, now Steven is on the prowl and no one is safe.

IS STEVEN TYLER LIVIN’ ON THE EDGE AGAIN?

Aerosmith is in a shambles, what with Joe Perry telling the Las Vegas Sun that Steven Tyler quit the band, and Steven Tyler denying it. What IS going on with these guys? According to Roger Friedman at the Hollywood Reporter, the band can’t agree on who should manage them. But the real complication seems to be Steven’s intrusive girlfriend, Erin Brady (who has been compared to Courtney Love.) She thinks Steven, at 61, could be the hottest solo artist of all time. Friedman also suggests that Steven, who was on the wagon for years, has been partying a bit too heavily with 35 year old billionaire Justin Murdock. Maybe drugs are on the menu again. Can this band be saved?
