    If it happened twice when you did a certain thing it is not random. But I doubt supernatural either.

    If I understand correctly you were online and playing music, and when a certain artist was chosen the TV turned on on two occasions.

    Try it again and see what happens.

    Was anyone else around who may be playing a joke on you?
    Where was the remote for the TV at the time?
    Check the batteries in the remote, low batteries can cause some strange behavior in remotes.

    Keep us informed as you look into this.
