  • Steven Tyler Gives Impromptu Mini-Concert With Moscow Street Musician

    Steven Tyler surprised Aerosmith fans last Friday in the streets of Moscow when he joined Alexander Anisimov in an impromptu performance of “I Don’t Want To Miss A Thing.”

    Tyler was watching the street musician when the crowd asked him to perform the song. Tyler was game and sang his band’s hit. But the Anisimov didn’t recognize him right away. “I didn’t recognize him at all,” Anisimov said. “A foreigner came up to me and started singing along…He sings well.” “But when he started to sing louder and more confidently, it dawned on me who it was. I was stunned,” Anisimov added. The Aerosmith frontman didn’t put too much emphasis on getting the lyrics right and made up new ones as the guitarist played with him. Tyler even encouraged the guitarist to join in for the chorus which got a loud roar from the crowd. Anisimov seemed to get nervous upon recognizing Tyler and continued playing just the chorus so Tyler had to expertly guide him into the song’s bridge and through to the ending. At the end of the once in a lifetime performance, the two musicians gave each other high fives and posed for photos. Steven Tyler and his bandmates were in Moscow to perform a free concert on Lubyanskaya Ploshchad for the 868th annual celebration of City Day. They were also documenting and sharing their time in Moscow through the band’s Instagram account.

    The band drew a crowd of over 100,000 people in Moscow just last week.

    It was not clear how long Aerosmith would be in Moscow for, although drummer Joey Kramer has reportedly already made it back to the United States.

  • Judy Huth: Bill Cosby Ordered To Testify In Sexual Assault Lawsuit

    Judy Huth is one of dozens of women accusing Bill Cosby of sexually assault and has brought a lawsuit against the actor claiming he assaulted her at the Playboy Mansion in the 1970s, when she was just 15 years old.

    On Wednesday, a Los Angeles County Superior Court judge ordered Cosby, 78, to give a deposition on Oct. 9, and his accuser, Judy Huth, to give a deposition on Oct. 15.

    This decision could prove to be a turning point in whether the accusations are true. Most cases have passed the statutes of limitations for criminal cases, but this and future lawsuits might be the means to bring Cosby to justice, should the allegations be true.

    Huth, 56, claims in her civil suit that Cosby provided alcohol to the minor while she and a friend were at the mansion in 1974, and then sexually molested her by “taking her hand in his hand and performing a sex act on himself without her consent.”

    Cosby denies that allegations and his attorneys say the suit is an attempt to extort the star.

    Judy Huth’s attorney says her client is happy with the ruling.

    “We are pleased that we will now be able to move ahead without further delay on Ms. Huth’s case,” Huth’s attorney, Gloria Allred, said in a statement.

    The Los Angeles County district attorney’s office could not bring criminal charges in December when Judy Huth made her allegations, saying the statute of limitations had long ago expired.

    Cosby has counter-sued Judy Huth, accusing her of extortion.
