Nelly Reason: Both artists/bands have had members of religious groups protest against holding gigs. Greek Orthodox Church officials protested against Slipknot playing a show in Athens, Greece, because they thought they were Satanists. Baptist Church Ministers protested against Nelly performing in their city as part of his Sweat/Suit tour, because they felt that his lyrics were demeaning to women.
I think you're thinking of 'Girlfriend'; Nelly did it with N'Sync (Justin Timberlake was a member of N'Sync). Diana Krall Reason: Both Justin Timberlake and Diana Krall had covers of 'Cry Me A River' in their albums.
Lostprophets Similiar to the reason above, they both covered 'Cry Me A River'. ... did that one count?
Yeah, that counts. You even get bonus points for ripping me off. Nickelback Reason: Both recently (like within a year) have had their drummers leave.
Usher Reason: Both Usher and Slipknot re-released their CD's with Bonus Tracks, and at least one of those bonus tracks was used a single. Usher re-released 'Confessions', and released bonus track 'My Boo' (ft. Alicia Keys) as a single. Slipknot re-released 'Vol. 3 (The Subliminal Verses)', and released bonus track 'Before I Forget' as a single.
Dude, you're supposed to link Usher and another artist, not Slipknot. Read the posts carefully. Oh well, I'll keep going from Slipknot. We've ended up with Slipknot like 4 times. Static-X Former Static-X guitarist Tripp Eisen was also a member of the Murderdolls.
