Parents everywhere are breathing a collective sigh of relief. Maybe Christmas isn’t ruined after all.
It has been announced that Miley Cyrus, a.k.a. Hannah Montana, is extending her extremely popular tour and adding 14 more shows. The shows begin January 11 in Detroit and go until January 31 in Miami.
Disney says it was an overwhelming response from fans that made them decide to add the additional shows. I’m sure it had nothing to do with the fact that it’s a huge revenue maker.
One downfall – the Jonas Brothers, who are touring with Miley, will not be on the added shows. Instead, Aly & AJ will join Miley from January 11 to January 24, with another “special guest” appearing for the remainder of the shows.
Hannah Montana’s Barbie girl Miley Cyrus turned 15 and the only thing her parents say she wished for was to celebrate her birthday on the stage, with her hometown fans.
Daddy opened her act with a guitar solo and from that point on the young star took the stage. 15,000 people congratulated her on her 15th birthday at the end of the act, singing in a choice a nice happy birthday. Miley seemed quite sincere when she told the crowd that she is living her dream both for her and for millions of young Americans out there that can get the big break she did. The innocent 15 year old wishes every kid could live her dream along with her.
Whoever said that reality TV stars and alums can’t make it big in the real world should really start eating their words now. But in the case of American Idol alums Carrie Underwood and Chris Daughtry, was there ever really any doubt?
The two singers won big at the 2007 American Music Awards by picking up three awards each. Carrie won for Favorite Female Country Artist, Favorite Country Album for ‘Some Hearts’ and the Audience Text-in Award for Favorite Artist just days after winning big at the Country Music Association Awards. Chris Daughtry and his band took home Breakthrough Artist, Favorite Pop/Rock Album and Favorite Contemporary Artist.
After just days of getting arrested and charged by police with one count of battery, Kid Rock opens up about the early-morning scuffle at a Waffle House in Georgia last weekend to Ellen DeGeneres on her talk show.
On the Thursday edition of the show, the ‘Rock N Roll Jesus’ crooner said he was simply trying to have a good time. He went on to say that he was provoked into a fight. “One thing led to another and windows were broken.” But the rocker insisted that it’s not like him to be like that. “The last thing I want is that reputation. I believe in just standing up for things I believe in.”
American Idol alum Carrie Underwood is featured on the cover of Entertainment Weekly for this past week. She’s on there for good reason as her 2005 album ‘Some Hearts’ is the most successful album from any Idol contestant as it sold over 6 million copies.
Along with the cover is an interview where she talks about what she thinks of those saying she’s not country, being famous and even her past relationship with NFL quarterback Tony Romo.
When people say she’s not country, she says “Okay, here’s my thing: On Top 40 stations, nobody cares that you’ll have Fergie next to 50 Cent. They’re different. Why can’t you have me next to somebody that’s more traditional country? You can call me ‘’not country’’ until your face is blue, but I sing country music.”
It seems that the Idols are getting it on with the rivalries as Clay Aiken has had a falling out with fellow American Idol alum Kimberly Locke. Kimberly is quite upset about it and she’s filling everyone in on the cat fight by writing on her official site’s blog.
It seems it all stemmed from the supposed reunion tour that Ruben, Clay and Kimberly were planning. Kimberly talked with Billboard about it but the wrong things got printed and Clay read into it wrong as well.
The gist of it is, Clay is pretty much calling Kimberly a liar and Kimberly thinks that Clay is way too full of himself.
Now that he has been proved this chaps just going keep running his point over and over again till we damn kick his ass and tell him that it’s been six months since the VMAs have been over. He might have been right that Britney will prove to be a failure at the MTV awards but that doesn’t mean he is some kind of messiah knows what’s going to be the Britney Spears performance and other things too, then he would have known that Kanye West wasn’t going to win in any of the five categories. So we all know he is not a messiah. Britney tired to get it right but she couldn’t, she is just a human trying to get it right all over again, she might not succeed but at least she’s tired to success, you these morons who think she finished and a waste need to take a closer look at themselves at see if they have ever achieved even a fraction of the success that Britney has. Mr. Timbaland good for you that you’ve been able to get a prediction right, but the same could happen to you.
That’s the question everyone in the world including celebrities and fans are asking of Britney Spears, that couldn’t she manage to put one stage performance something that she is know to be strong at, just more time. You want the truth? The Honest truth? Pains pills and/or prescription medication. That’s likely what went wrong. Depression, Post Partum Depression, Pipolar Manic Depression. Britney Spears is almost assuredly mentally ill and her substance abuse is simply an attempt to cover it. She’s an emotionally unstable wreck, propped up on medication just to pay the bills of all the handlers/parasites/enamels that are leeching off of her to the tune of $700,000 a month. This is just like Anna Nicole. It really, really is. Much like Lindsay Lohan, Britney has to get into some fairly serious trouble with the law, without killing herself or someone else in the process. It’s really the only chance she has left. She’s severed ties with all the people who actually care about her and are only listening to her handlers, who continue, of course, to insist to her that nothing’s wrong. At least Lindsay still listens to her family. Britney won’t. This is sad. And tragic. Very tragic
Amy Winehouse’s husband Blake Fielder-Civil has hit out at judges of the Mercury Music Prize, insisting the singer was “robbed” of the $40,000 award. They most probably did not want to reward this druggie. Good for them. “She is really well and doesn’t need to go back to rehab”…sure, it would be great if all drug users can get the monkey off their backs so fast. It was not but 2 or 3 weeks ago that she landed in a fight with her husband with him ending up with scratches all over his face and neck when he caught her about to do drugs with a prostitute in their bathroom. Fielder-Civil says, “Amy was robbed. Who knows why they didn’t give her the award. But I was so proud of her for her performance. She’s really well and she doesn’t need to go back into rehab.” He is no better than a piece of sh*t himself and he needs to go to the rehab and this time alone not in the company of Amy.
American Idol winner Jordin Sparks has pledged to wait to have sex until she’s married. The pretty teenager, who became the youngest Idol winner in May, reveals she promised her parents she’d keep her virginity until her wedding night when she was just 13. I wish her luck, I had the same intentions. Obviously, I was tricked, sweet talked e.t.c. Honestly, I think it’s a very naive thing to do. You can’t possibly know if you’ll connect with someone on that level without a test run. And God forbid she winds up with a guy who is also a virgin. Or what if she’s stuck with someone who either doesn’t know what he’s doing or isn’t willing to take her needs into consideration. But what ever she should try and stick to her ‘best laid plans’ for as long as possible. The day she finds someone who she thinks is attractive and has some brains (note girls do look for a man who has a feminine side to him and has brains too) she should take him.
Celine Dion fans are in for a treat. A few lucky fans of the French-Canadian singer got to attend a very special listening party for her new album this past Monday night in Las Vegas. The tentative title of the album ‘Woman in Me’ has since been changed to ‘Taking Chances’ – with good reason.
The album definitely has a rock theme and is very guitar driven. It’s a sound that’s a little left of center for her. However, her trademark power ballads and even a bit of the blues are still there. It’s mixing something old with something new. With the change in sound, Celine is taking a chance.
It has been reported that 50 Cent “erupted” during a meeting at his record label Interscope, after a forthcoming single and video–a collaboration with Robin Thicke–inadvertently leaked on to the Internet.
Reported by MTV News, the track “Follow My Lead” was due to be released as the third single from the rapper’s forthcoming album Curtis, and after current videos for “I Get Money” and “Ayo Technology” had dropped from rotation.
According to MTV’s sources, when 50 heard about the leak he reportedly ripped a plasma TV from the wall and threw his mobile phone through a window.
He later talked about his frustrations during an interview with DJ Kay Slay on New York’s Hot 97 radio station.
He said: “The process has been ill for me this go-around. I usually have to start a project myself, as far as Interscope. I got to lead. On the first album, ‘Wanksta’ just took off before ‘In Da Club’ came about. When we got to The Massacre, I leaked ‘Disco Inferno’ and they caught up with ‘Candy Shop.’
“This album, I threw ‘Straight To The Bank’ out there, and ‘Amusement Park’ was the joint they were supposed to assist me with going after. But when that came, it grew at the same pace that ‘Straight To The Bank’ grew. And I was like, ‘Yo, it don’t feel like it’s a difference in the support for the actual record.’”
Clips from “Follow My Lead” have since been removed from YouTube, but have already been posted elsewhere.
News flash! Amy Winehouse was rushed to the hospital yesterday morning after some sort of incident. Reps for the tattooed singer confirmed that she was taken to a London hospital and treated for ‘exhaustion’. She has since been discharged and is now at home with orders of taking ‘complete rest’.
When asked about what brought the health scare on, the rep could only say ‘it came about quickly’ and that the grueling tour schedule is most likely to blame. For now, all her shows have been canceled.
Exhaustion? It came about quickly? It’s what I would call a cover up for alcohol poisoning. Yes?
Just because you were voted out early doesn’t mean American Idol contestants don’t stand a chance in the music scene. We all have William Hung to prove that. But it seems that more cast offs are finding their way into the music scene. Sabrina Sloan and Sundance Head have been signed by Universal Records Motown. The two are set to record a whole album of cover songs.
Prepare yourselves for some yummy yet cheesy renditions of duets of way back when. But either way, at least they can actually sing. I would have easily traded these two, and ten thousand of their clones, back into the show just so one Sanjaya can be booted off.
THERE are the deliriously exciting parts of getting signed to a major record label — spreading the news, hobnobbing with superstar labelmates, planning an album with a household-name producer — and then, according to the singer-songwriter Chrisette Michele, there are the not-so-thrilling parts. For example, “I never knew I was fat until Def Jam signed me. I seriously had no idea,” said the 24-year-old at her home here last week. “But then I started doing interviews, and people would ask, ‘How’s it been dealing with your weight all these years?’ ” Fat, America has so many obese people that there is no count and therefore so many heart disease patients. But if a celeb or a model or singer has slightly extra pounds on him/her all these media guys just stare at them like they have never seen something like this ever before and jump on to discuss weight matters. The interviewer could be fat herself but since Michele is an upcoming star she cannot have asked the interviewer about her weight problems. How single minded, may be they nothing better to ask about.
