While we don't know exactly what caused his death, we do know that paramedics were called to his Missouri home and found him unresponsive. They tried to revive him, but they were unsuccessful. Well, we know that, and we also know that so many people are devastated at this loss. See how celebrities are paying tribute to the life and legacy of Chuck Berry. 1. Bruce Springsteen “Chuck Berry was rock’s greatest practitioner, guitarist, and the greatest pure rock ‘n’ roll writer who ever lived.” 2.

Kanye West Calls Taylor Swift a FAKE ASS, Goes Ballistic in SNL Meltdown – Listen!

Guys, we really tried to make it through an entire day without reporting on another Kanye West rant, but alas, there is another that just couldn’t be ignored. This time, it’s in audio form, and you can listen to it below. In a clip obtained by Page Six , you can hear Kanye call Taylor Swift a “fake ass” and go off on an expletive-filled tirade backstage before his performance last week on Saturday Night Live . Kanye has received much backlash over a controversial lyric in his new song “Famous,” in which he says he might have sex with Taylor, since he “made that bitch famous.” “Don’t f*ck with me! Don’t f*ck with me! Don’t f*ck with me!” he screams in the clip, after going on about how he’s 50 percent more influential than notable figures in history including Pablo Picasso, Stanley Kubrick, Pablo Escobar and Paul the Apostle. We don’t know who did his calculations, but we’ve a feeling they’re a hair off. But the one who’s truly off – his rocker – is Kanye. Yeezy was so worked up over a problem with the set that he nearly walked out and left the show high and dry with no musical guest. View Slideshow: Kanye West Rants on Twitter, Defends Taylor Swift Lyric “Just moments leading into the live show, and during the live show, Kanye had a meltdown and threatened to walk off,” said one production insider. “He freaked out about how the set was arranged.”  Another source told Page Six that Kanye was heard calling the SNL crew “white motherf**kers.” Kanye has arguably made himself famous (nevermind Taylor) by acting like a bona fide, screamy nut job, but his latest antics are stirring up even more controversy than usual. His former co-writer and close friend Rhymefest recently tweeted that ‘Ye was in need of “spiritual and mental” counseling , and that he should “step away from the public & yesmen & heal.”   Someone close to him, if not a mental health professional, definitely needs to get into this man’s head and tell him to GET A MOTHERLOVING GRIP.

Prince Rocks Winged Eyeliner Better Than You in Passport Photo

Most women who have attempted winged eyeliner know that no matter how steady your hand, nine times out of 10 you wind up looking like Alice Cooper in a windstorm. But Prince rocks the look like a friggin’ boss – in his passport photo, no less. The “Purple Rain” singer posted this shot of himself to Twitter, also writing “PRINCE ROGERS NELSON::PASSPORT PICTURE 2/11/16.” It’s so perfect you’d think the man has been taking lessons from the queen of winged eyeliner herself, Adele. The artist also sports a perfectly coiffed afro, finely-groomed eyebrows and flawless skin. You gotta hand it to the guy for bringing the glam, even in his passport pic. We’re also happy to report that Prince seems to have really gotten the hang of Twitter. When he first joined a couple years ago, he posted his first “selfie,”  although the photo featured nothing but some smoke . Prince is currently on tour in Australia performing with nothing but a piano and a microphone. During his first show in Melbourne, Prince dedicated a performance of his hit song “Little Red Corvette” to Vanity, his former girlfriend who died earlier this week .  “Her and I used to love each other deeply,” he said of his former flame , whose real name was Denise Matthews. “She loved me for the artist I was, I loved her for the artist she was trying to be. She and I would fight. She was very headstrong cos she knew she was the finest woman in the world. She never missed an opportunity to tell you that.” He continued to sharing more memories of her and added, “I probably shouldn’t be telling this story, but she’d want us to celebrate her life and not mourn her.” Vanity was 57.

Bryan Wilson: Texas Lawyer Airs World’s Most Bonkers Commercial

If you're a fan of Breaking Bad or Better Call Saul , then you know that Jimmy McGill/Saul Goodman knows is the master of using ludicrous gimmicks to advertise his legal services. In the real world, Saul's only had competition in the race for Most Spectacularly WTF? Law Firm Ad came from a lawyer named Jamie Casino , who's Super Bowl spots basically look like Dick Cheney got Alice Cooper pregnant and the baby came out as a commercial. Now, however, there's a new name in the batsh-t lawyer game, and “Texas Law Hawk” Bryan Wilson is making a case for himself as the king of the bald-eagle-on-acid patriotic mindf-ck commercial. We can't come close to doing justice to Brian's commercial with a mere description, so check out the clip and experience Wilson's “talons of justice” for yourself.

GALLERY: Guess Who Out-Weirded Johnny Depp and Co. at the Dark Shadows Premiere?

Between Johnny Depp , Tim Burton , and the reliably bizarro fashion statements of Helena Bonham Carter , the Dark Shadows premiere promised a veritable feast of eccentricities. But guess what? The best and weirdest photo ops from last night’s to-do came not from the aforementioned mavens of macabre (granted, HBC was M.I.A.), but from the bizarre antics of an unlikely duo whose red carpet shenanigans made Burton and his cast of lovable weirdos look downright… mundane. Unexpected smooches, yoga poses, the good ol’ bunny ears photo bomb — if it was slightly awkward or distracting, premiere guests Cloris Leachman and Steven Tyler were involved. Who knew they’d make such an electrifying couple? To quote the film’s tagline, “Strange is relative.” Indeed . But don’t take my word for it. Browse Movieline’s gallery from the Dark Shadows premiere to see Depp, Burton, co-stars Michelle Pfeiffer, Eva Green, Jackie Earle Haley, Bella Heathcote, Chloe Moretz, and composer Danny Elfman smile for the photogs as Hurricane ClorVen (Stevris? Leachler?) steals the spotlight. Even Alice Cooper didn’t seem to know what to make of it, and that’s saying something. Click for images from the Dark Shadows premiere.

Talkback: So, How About That Dark Shadows Trailer?

The first trailer for Tim Burton ‘s Dark Shadows was unveiled today, revealing what Burton really has up his sleeve for his adaptation of the cult soap opera. Namely: Gothic guffaws! 1970s humor! Johnny Depp playing vampire Barnabas Collins with that unmistakable Johnny Depp quirk! Seriously, is every Depp role for the rest of time going to feel like some variation on his Hunter Thompson? Anyway: Check out the trailer and unleash your thoughts. Head to Apple to watch the trailer in hi-res. I’m sure hardcore Dark Shadows fans will have the most to pick over here, seeing as Burton’s take isn’t quite exactly a straight translation of the ’60s-era melodrama to the big screen. And yet the tone feels so very Burtonesque, the sets and cinematography are lush and vintage, and despite the soundtrack of disco cliches it’s starting to grow on me. Plus, how can anyone resist sardonic teenager Chloe Moretz? Dark Shadows is in theaters May 11 and also features Eva Green , Helena Bonham Carter, Michelle Pfeiffer, Jonny Lee Miller, Jackie Earle Haley, Bella Heathcote, Gulliver McGrath, Christopher Lee, and Alice Cooper as himself, because of course.

VIDEO: Alice Cooper Invites Johnny Depp Onstage to Perform in London

Welcome to My Nightmare on Elm Street. Alice Cooper tweeted that a surprise guest would be joining him onstage at London’s 100 Club on Sunday night, but attendees probably didn’t guess that the mystery shredder was a star of, say, Finding Neverland . Yes, Johnny Depp joined the ghoulish, golfing legend, and he even wore a bulky rock ‘n roll vest to get into character. It’s cute to watch. And Alice? Is still the greatest hard rock legend and Shelley Duvall drag artist in history.
