...1970s: The Sequel." All around us--from bellbottoms and platform shoes to huge, scary sideburns, from movies like "Dazed and Confused" to "My Girl ," from Lenny Kravitz to the return of "disco-mania"--the 1970s are back...

...public show was subdued. Host Christian Slater felt called upon to ask for applause for Madonna, whose cross-gender opening number, straight out of Berlin 1929, set a mix-and-match postmodern tone for the performances. Lenny Kravitz and Soul Asylum did their respective versions of the early '70s. Sharon Stone, perfectly pretty in her pink '50s prom dress, was Barbie, live. (In postshow remarks, she volunteered an answer to the question everybody wants to ask Sharon Stone: "Did you fish and hunt with your dad growing up in Pennsylvania?" She did.) U2's the Edge, with a channel-surfing...

...CALL VANESSA PARADIS France's revenge on us for Euro Disney; she is a model who sings. Having conquered France with her willfully vapid bubble-gum pop, Paradis, 19, has now made her self-titled American debut. For help in her songwriting and backup instrumentals, she chose producer Lenny Kravitz, the irony-free purveyor of heavy-handed homages to late-1960s rock. Together, Paradis and Kravitz make a slick but shallow couple. On cuts like Your Love Has Got a Handle on My Mind, Paradis's slinky, coquettish voice lightens Kravitz's ponderous touch, but even their best songs have...
