Alexandra Capotorto in the business of writing pop culture-y stuff for two reasons: Britney Spears and Johnny Depp, one to befriend, the other to reproduce with. Figure that out yourselves. Her friends have dubbed her their official "Walking Encyclopedia of Celebrity Knowledge," which she thrives on and abuses to not-so-subconsciously inflate her own ego. Her only regret in life is not getting to E! before Giuliana Rancic and Chelsea Handler, because the latter essentially stole her identity - but they're cool now. Kind of. She's convinced that she could simultaneously win 'The Voice' and an Academy Award in a one year time period, given her fantastic shower-singing and ability to over-dramatize everything, but she'll settle for being a writer. Key word being "settle." She's sarcastic and witty, and takes nothing and no one seriously. She recites lines from movies mid-conversation much to the dismay of her "friends" - but at least she gives them someone to talk about afterward. Most importantly, she holds a B.A. in Print Journalism from Quinnipiac University, but only because her parents forced her to go. She would've preferred slumming it in Beverly Hills as Britney Spears' assistant/BFF.

ZZ Top – Best Classic Rock Artists A-Z
We wrap our our A-Z list of classic rock bands with that little ol' band from Texas, ZZ Top.
Ever since their debut album from 1971, the band has tapped its bluesy roots in songs that feature guitar riffs that are almost as dirty as the wink-wink lyrics they sing...
The Doors – Best Classic Rock Artists A-Z
The Doors clearly carved out their place in rock 'n' roll history with the release of six great albums, starting with their classic self-titled debut in 1967.
But the unfortunate death of singer Jim Morrison at the age of 27 in 1971 locked in their legacy once and for all. Wit...
Creedence Clearwater Revival – Best Classic Rock Artists A-Z
Even though they were from the San Francisco Bay area, Creedence Clearwater Revival successfully portrayed themselves as natives of the deep south. That probably helps explain why their music is infused with so much soul and genuine swamp boogie...
The Beatles – Best Classic Rock Artists A-Z
The four individuals who make up the Beatles, one of the most influential and commercially successful bands of all time -- George Harrison, John Lennon, Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr -- can be considered the four cornerstones of rock 'n' roll music over the past five decades.

The Who – Artists Who Surprisingly Haven’t Won a Grammy
When you consider all the amazing things the Who achieved in their long and storied career, it's downright stunning the Grammy voters never saw fit to give any of their albums or songs any awards.
Then again, it's not like Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend's trophy cases are empty...
Led Zeppelin – Artists Who Surprisingly Haven’t Won a Grammy
Okay, so the saving grace here is that Led Zeppelin was at least nominated for a Grammy back in 1970 for Best New Artist, and based on that whole "best new artist curse" maybe it's best they didn't collect that night.
Guitarist Jimmy Page and vocalist Robert Plant did manage to win individually after their band disbanded, but it's kind of hard to believe the guys behind 'Stairway to Heav
Jimi Hendrix – Artists Who Surprisingly Haven’t Won a Grammy
Man, did Jimi Hendrix ever get the shaft when it came to the Grammy Awards.
The Doors – Artists Who Surprisingly Haven’t Won a Grammy
The Doors' '67 self-titled release was only the first in their string of Top 10 albums. They continued to grow in popularity with singles like 'Light My Fire' and 'L.A. Woman' and yet, they were snubbed by the Grammys throughout their career...
Queen – Artists Who Surprisingly Haven’t Won a Grammy
We're just as surprised as you are to learn of all the great classic rock artists -- including Queen -- who never won a Grammy Award.
Even in 2014, Queen remains one of the most beloved in the industry, and to be fair, they were nominated in 1976 for 'Bohemian Rhapsody' and again in 1980 for 'Another One Bites the Dust' -- they just didn't walk away with a gold gramophone -- which is stupid, but w
Hottest Rockstar Ex-Wives
It's better to have loved and lost than not to have loved at all, right? At least, as we run down this list of the hottest rockstar ex-wives, that's what we're telling ourselves.
