HITS LIST: THE BRIDE WORE P!NK


A pair of Sony Music heavyweights—RCA’s P!nk and Columbia’s Vampire Weekend—top our weekly gathering of trending topics across the industry. Meanwhile, WMG CEO Steve Cooper is up, and Deb Dugan is in as Recording Academy topper in waiting.

But the names that have the most lips flapping belong to the anagrammatic prospective duo of Scooter Braun and Scott Borchetta, after they were “seen together over a quiet dinner of pastrami and linguine,” in Page Six parlance. Or maybe they were just playing a friendly game of H-O-R-S-E. for the dinner check.

So what are you waiting for? Dig in.
