Aside from a shared penchant for musical excellence, alt-rockers Foo Fighters and neo-soul diva Adele wouldn't seem to have anything in common.

But at Sunday's 54th Annual GRAMMY Awards, the two acts found some common ground as they emerged as two of the biggest winners.

By capturing every rock award they were nominated for, Foo Fighters brought their total career tally to 11 GRAMMYs and became the first act ever to sweep the field.

When you consider that the award for Best Long Form Video went to director James Moll for Foo Fighters: Back And Forth, the band's showing Sunday seems all the more impressive.

Here, we take a closer look at the Foo Fighters' domineering 54th GRAMMY sweep.

Best Rock Performance and Best Rock Song

Foo Fighters, "Walk"

Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance

Foo Fighters, "White Limo"

hello KittyFor the band that were once speculated as "knights of satans service" ... have the boys in make-up lost their rock cred??

Kiss have gone from hard core rocker .. to fluffy little cuddly things .. LITERALLY! The Japanese toys HELLO KITTY are very cute little things and now release KISS versions of HELLO KITTY .. all with co-operation from the old muso's.

Check them out below .. perhaps this is what happens to rockers in old age - they spend all their money on sex, drugs & rock'n'roll that after 50 they need to do whatever they can to make a buck? Just look at Jimmy Barnes new song as posted in an earlier blog!

She hasn't been here since 1993 ... and now MADGE IS BACK. Madonna has just announced one of her biggest tours to date, INCLUDING Australia WOOOO!!

Fans of pointy bras and botox, don't get too excited average tickets will be around $300 with those who want the "Gold Seat" experience will need loose change of up to $1500. At least you have a year to get saving!

MEANWHILE ... One of the biggest days in the American year was on Monday ... the Superbowl. There's crazy fans, crazy advertisements worth a mint, and all eyes are on WHO will be the half-time performance. This year it was Madonna.

Check out the Material Girls performance below - what do you think??? Mutton dressed as lamb? Too much botox?
