Surprise Tim McGraw Album

Wednesday, October 22nd, 2008


Tim McGraw’s label has gone ahead and released another of the singer’s greatest hits album – without Tim’s knowledge or permission. Tim says that he feels most for his fans saying “It has to be just as confusing to the fans as it is to me.” The reason is that this is the second compilation album since 2006 with only one studio album in between. He also says that he’s been working on a studio album for over a year now, performing new tracks on tour and hoping to release the new album in the fall but that he now has to hold off on that. Tim tells his fans “In the spirit of the election year, I would simply say to my fans ‘I’m Tim McGraw and I don’t approve their message.’” Considering that the album was produced without any communication with him, it’s rightfully so.

Britney Spears is a “waitress”?

Friday, October 3rd, 2008

britney-spears-womanizer.jpg

Yes! I am not kidding or joking. I swear by God that I have seen the pop queen Britney Spears serving on the tables in a restaurant.

Do you still think that I may be sleeping at that time?

But NO, I am damn confident that I was awake and I saw her with my own eyes.

Well! In fact it was the latest music video of the “Crazy” singer.

The title of the song is “Womanizer” and it is quite similar to her other pre-Blackout videos.

Apart from Britney, who played a waitress and an erotic dancer, the other dancers also sported waiter uniforms which consisted of white shirts, skinny ties and black pants/ leggings.

“Womanizer,” is the first single by the pop star in her upcoming album “Circus”.

    New Hilary Duff

    Thursday, September 25th, 2008

    Hilary Duff has recently dropped the first single from her upcoming Greatest Hits album. The song is called ‘Reach Out’ and it features a sizeable sample from Depeche Mode’s ‘Personal Jesus’. I really like it! The song probably won’t get much play in America but it should do quite well for Hilary in Europe and overseas as it has that Euro pop and dance sound. Hey, if you can’t find fame in one side of the world because Miley Cyrus has taken over, go for other places. It’s a smart move if you ask me. Hilary is way better than her anyway.

    Jessica Simpson Knows

    jessica-simpson-album-cover.jpg
    The album cover for Jessica Simpson’s country effort ‘Do You Know’ has been revealed. Her debut country album will be released on Tuesday, September 9th. The 28-year old blonde bombshell of a singer co-wrote all but three tracks on the disc including her top 20 hit single ‘Come on Over’. It was also recently announced that Jessica will be performing at the Akwesasne Music Festival at the Discount Concert Grounds in Hogansburg, New York on August 29. Let’s hope she does better in that show. Her debut country performance was met with a mix of jeers and cheers, but mostly jeers, last time.

    Ashley Tisdale Works

    Thursday, July 24th, 2008

    ashley-tisdale.jpg

    Ashley Tisdale was spotted as she headed into the Warner Bros. Studio in Los Angeles on Wednesday. She was there for a meeting to discuss her second album. In other Ashley news, ‘Picture This’, a made for TV movie starring her was released on DVD this week following its airing on the ABC Family channel. The DVD has a couple of extra treats including Making of ‘Picture This’ and Making a Concert: Behind the Scenes of ‘Shadows of the Night’ Performance. Why do I get the feeling that no matter what she does, she will never outgrow her ‘High School Musical’ role and just become stuck in an acting career rut unless her album does good?

    Mariah Carey Hits the Road

    Sunday, July 20th, 2008

    mariah-carey.jpg


    The world better brace itself because we’re going to be hit by a diva hurricane as Mariah Carey is going on tour. The singer has just announced the big news on the JohnJay & Rich morning radio show on Wednesday. The tour is still in the planning stages though so don’t expect to see her this summer. The earliest we can see her is later this year. And if you add in the diva factor, the tour may not happen until next year. By then, people would have lost interest and there wcouldn’t have been a point anyway. She should have planned the tour right when she released her album.

    Lily Allen and Lindsay Lohan Duet

    Saturday, July 5th, 2008

    lily-allen-lindsay-lohan.jpg

    All hopes of Lily Allen making a splash with her upcoming album have gone down the drain. The other British pop wreck is set to record a duet with train wreck from the US Lindsay Lohan. Lily is working on finishing her second album but reports are saying that she still wants to add another song to it called ‘Wherever You Go’ and plans to record it with Lindsay. If Lily really wanted to further her career and make a big deal out of it, she should have just enlisted label mate and rumored rival Katy Perry to do the duet with her.

    The New Edition of Kids

    Friday, July 4th, 2008

    nkotb-new-edition.jpg

    The New Kids on the Block recorded a song last week with a fellow 80s boy band, New Edition. The thing is the most infamous member, Bobby Brown, was cut out of the picture. The track called ‘Full Service’ will be on NKOTB’s as yet untitled upcoming album. Producer RedOne says “Donnie Wahlberg had this idea for a few months, since New Kids had the idea of getting back together really. Donnie’s been looking for that one track for all of them and I think we found it.” New Edition’s Ralph Tresvant recently spoke about the bands’ rumored feud saying “The thing people were going back and forth with was we’d been doing what we were doing for the longest [but] we couldn’t get cartoons and things that the white guys were getting. It was like, ‘wow’. But the guys themselves, we have mad love.”

    Miley’s 7 Things

    Tuesday, July 1st, 2008

    miley-cyrus.jpg
    The video for Miley Cyrus’ first single for her upcoming studio album ‘Breakout’ has just dropped. ‘7 Things’ was shot in Los Angeles last month with director Brett Ratner, the same guy who directed ‘X-Men: The Last Stand’ and ‘Red Dragon’. It features Miley and other heartbroken girls using the lyrics of the song to attack their respective exes. It looks like Miley has a vindictive side to her. It’s pretty obvious anyway – just look at what she and her family keep saying about the Vanity Fair scandal. The official premiere of the video took place Saturday night on the Disney Channel.

    Miley’s Album Art

    Sunday, June 1st, 2008

    miley-cyrus.jpg

    The cover art for Miley Cyrus sophomore album ‘Breakout’ has been revealed. The ‘Hannah Montana’ star’s new CD will be dropping in stores everywhere on Tuesday, July 22. The album’s first single, ‘7 Things’ debuted on Radio Disney earlier this month. So what do you think of the album cover? If you ask me, I think it’s still a little on the phallic side. But at least she’s not showing of her bare back and teasing people that she may have nothing on under a sheet. Seriously, the girl needs to start acting her age if she doesn’t want people thinking bad things about her.

    Hilary Duff Goes Back to Music

    Friday, May 30th, 2008

    hilary-duff.jpg

    Hilary Duff threw on a killer pair of cork-colored boots to spend her entire Tuesday afternoon at a recording studio in Burbank, California. It looks like the more successful of the Duff sister is getting back in music mode and is back to recording a new album after making a film, ‘War Inc’. Later in the evening, Hilary ate hearty at Mr. Chow with her hockey player boyfriend Mike Comrie. I wonder if any of her new songs will be about her beau just like some songs from her last album were about ex-boyfriend and now Nicole Richie baby daddy Joel Madden.

    Vanessa Hudgens Gets Reviewed

    Wednesday, May 28th, 2008

    vanessa-hudgens.jpg

    Vanessa Hudgens has received the first review of her sophomore album ‘Identified’, which comes out on July 1, from Entertainment Weekly. Vanessa said of the album that “[The album] is definitely sophisticated. But it’s also funky and fun–something that I would, like, actually listen to.” I’m not sure who really reviews the album here. Of the three tracks EW listed, most of the reviews of the songs came pretty much from Vanessa herself. The songs they heard were her first single off the album ‘Sneakernight’, the Dr. Luke (Kelly Clarkson, Pink) produced sassy anthem ‘First Bad Habit’ and the stripped-down ballad ‘Gone with the Wind’.

    Amy Winehouse and Pete Doherty to duet

    Tuesday, May 13th, 2008

    amy-and-pete-doherty.jpg

    Amy Winehouse is working on a new track with Babyshambles.

    Band frontman Pete Doherty confirmed the ‘Rehab’ singer teamed up with guitarist Mick Whitnall in the studio while he was in London’s Wormwood Scrubs Prison.

    He said: ‘Mick and Amy have a great relationship. They have been working on material while I was in prison. When I came out I went straight to the recording studio. I just want to get the music going. We’ve been told we will be doing a third album. That will keep me busy and hopefully out of trouble.’

    The collaboration, first sounded out last year, is tipped to be released as a single and will appear on the next Babyshambles album.

    Earlier this month, producer Mark Ronson reportedly halted sessions to record the new James Bond theme with Amy, 24, saying he was not sure she was ready to work on new music. Pete was released from jail last week after serving 29 days of a 14-week sentence for drug offences.

    Scarlett’s New Video

    Friday, May 2nd, 2008

    scarlett-johansson.jpg

    Scarlett Johansson has recently premiered her first music video ‘Falling Down’ which comes off of her debut solo album ‘Anywhere I Lay My Head’. The cover song, which also features David Bowie on vocals, was originally from Tom Waits’ album ‘Big Time’. It’s a good song but when it comes to the video, forget it. It’s pretty bad with its lame theme of ‘a day in the life of Scarlett’ and with the very shaky camera. It just gave me a headache really. Anyway, Scarlett’s album is set for release through Acto/Rhino Records on May 20. Here’s to hoping that the rest of her album doesn’t give me the headaches.

    Usher to work with Michael Buble

    Wednesday, April 30th, 2008

    usher-cd.jpg

    It’s not your average pairing… but Usher wants to work with Michael Buble.

    The R’n’B star is desperate to team up with the Canadian jazz artist on his new album ‘Here I Stand’ and has even written a song for them to perform together.

    He said: ‘I would love to perform my track ‘Forever Young’ with Michael Buble. I actually wrote that song with the intention of him and me doing it together.’

    The ‘Love in This Club’ singer is also keen to collaborate with US singer-songwriter John Mayer.

    Usher added: ‘I would like to do something with John Mayer on one of my songs ‘Something Special’ which is on my new album. I would love him to play the guitar and sing with me on that.’

    The 29-year-old star, who has recorded a track with Ne-Yo for his new LP, insists he is happy his 18-year-old chart rival Chris Brown has enjoyed such success.

    Usher explained: ‘All of this new energy is great for the industry. Chris is the guy who dances and sings, which is a lot like I do and did as a young artist. If time serves us correctly, and artists continue to better themselves, then hopefully he will follow the same path that I did.’

    ‘Here I stand’, which is Usher’s fifth studio album, is scheduled to be released worldwide on May 27.

    Clay Aiken is on His Way

    The album cover for Clay Aiken’s new album ‘On My Way Here’ has just been released. His new studio effort will hit stores on May 6 but that’s not going to stop the singer from performing all new songs on Monday, April 28 at 7PM on QVC. The American Idol alum commented on his album unveiling saying “Starting my career on national, live television, it seems fitting to be unveiling my new album live on QVC. To be able to connect with QVC’s viewers and broadcast my performance to over 93 million households is an amazing opportunity.” Whatever floats your boat.

    Mariah Carey is After Leona Lewis

    Saturday, April 19th, 2008

     

    leonna-mariah.jpg
    While Leona Lewis is the first British musician to have gone to the top spot of the American charts with her album in around 20 years, Mariah Carey’s album is predicted to have one of the biggest opening weeks on any album in recent years. Leona’s album ‘Spirit’ has sold 205,000 copies this past week in the US. Mariah’s new album ‘E=MC2’ opened with sales of 154,000 in the first day. And as I previously said, she is predicted to go over the 500,000 mark with first week sales. Mariah is hot on Leona’s tail and the curvaceous diva is pretty set to kick the Brit’s pretty butt off the top spot.

Mark your calendars now as the band of brothers consisting of 20-year old Kevin, 18-year old Joe and 15-year old Nick will be releasing their new album called ‘A Little Bit Longer’ on August 12. They recently talked to Popstar about their upcoming ‘Burnin’ Up’ tour where Nick said “We’re definitely talking about having some fire and maybe some explosions.” He even jokingly added “We’re going to [swallow swords of fire]!” Are we going to see a concert or a circus act?

    A new promo picture of ‘High School Musical’ star Vanessa Hudgens has been released from her sophomore album ‘Identified’. Could this possibly be the artwork for her new album cover? Vanessa has also released a new single called ‘Sneakernight’ and it’s gotten nothing but good reviews. Blender magazine reviewed the song saying “Teens will dance (and giggle), parents will overpay for the concert and all will be right with the teen pop universe.” If you go by nothing but that, then I guess it really is a good song. It may be a teeny bopper song but hey, it’s a pretty big market.

    Mariah Carey Got Leaked

    Wednesday, April 9th, 2008

    mariah-carey-leaked.jpg

    Mariah Carey’s new album ‘E=MC2’ got leaked onto the internet this past weekend. I’m not going to say where and how to download it but if you know you’re way around the cyber world, then you’ll figure it out. The leak kind of dampens the plans as Mariah’s album is supposed to come out on April 15th. Now that her music can be downloaded for free on the internet, I wonder if her fans will still buy her music. Considering that previews of Mariah’s music aren’t all good, I’m guessing her sales numbers would drop. That definitely sucks for her.

    Madonna Interview from Vanity Fair

    Wednesday, April 2nd, 2008

    Madonna is on the cover of the May 2008 Green issue of Vanity Fair. Along with the cover feature is an interview. She talks about adopting her son David from Malawi, the birth of her daughter Lourdes putting her on the road that ended in Malawi and even her favorite children’s books. Basically, she talks about anything and everything under the sun except for her upcoming album ‘Hard Candy’ and that’s coming out by the end of April! Aside from releasing her single ‘4 Minutes (To Save the World)’ which features Justin Timberlake, she’s hardly done anything to promote her album. But considering she’s been on the covers of countless magazines within 3 months, I guess that’s enough hype for her.

    Battle of the Divas - Madonna and Mariah Carey

    Sunday, March 30th, 2008

    Battle of the Divas - Madonna and Mariah Carey

    I said, in not so many words, that Madonna was going to win over Mariah Carey in their unofficial diva battle. An industry expert explains why that is so. Mariah always gets to go first, with her song being on radio for more than a month while Madonna’s has only been on for a week. Mariah’s album also comes out before Madonna’s. Mariah’s song dropped on iTunes a day before Madonna’s. All that really means is that Mariah will have a strong first week and go down while Madonna’s will gain airplay and get stronger as Mariah drops. In short, Madonna still wins in the end.

    Mariah Carey on the Losing End

    Saturday, March 22nd, 2008

    Mariah Carey’s new album ‘E=MC2’ is set to come out on April 15. Madonna’s new album ‘Hard Candy’ will be dropping in on April 29. Mariah’s been on 1, maybe 2, magazine covers and was obviously photoshopped. Madonna’s been in 4 now and she’s fiercer than ever. While Madonna has her own Sunsilk ad, Mariah has to share the spotlight with the likes of Martha Stewart, Carlos Santana and Gabriel Aubry. The 38-year old curvaceous diva will debut in a spot for Macy’s next week. And like I’ve said before, she needs a new stylist. It’s no wonder why she’s losing to Madonna on this one.

    R.E.M. Back from the Dead

    Wednesday, March 19th, 2008

    rem.jpg
    REM has been resurrected as the band has a new album coming out. The band members grace the cover of the new issue of Spin magazine wherein front man Michael Stipe talks about his own coming out. He said “It was super complicated for me in the ’80s. I was totally open with the band and my family and my friends and certainly the people I was sleeping with. I thought it was pretty obvious.” He also adds that going public was easier on him when he realized that it might inspire people to change their views about homosexuality and even help out some troubled kid somewhere out there.
