Earth, Wind and Fire and Chicago teaming up again

Posted by Sam on 22nd June 2009 in R&B, Reunions

It seems that the R&B group Earth, Wind and Fire and the legendary pop band Chicago have teamed up yet again as it does wonders for both their careers. The bassist of Earth, Wind and Fire, Verdine White, said the following about the new alliance: “The first time turned out really great. The second time was better, and this one’s over the top, because now everybody really gets it and people really dig it.” Actually, this one might prove to be a bit redundant since it’s the third time around and people might actually get bored of the idea. Actually, what am I saying? Given how much originiality is appreciated these days, they’ll probably have better success than they would’ve had each releasing a new record separately.

Adam Lambert Teams Up with Lady Gaga’s Producer

Posted by Sam on 19th June 2009 in Adam Lambert, Kris Allen, Lady GaGa, Queen

Sometimes, losing American Idol has better perks than actually winning it. Idol runner up Adam Lambert has reportedly begun working with RedOne, the man behind many of Lady Gaga’s hits and who, apparently has a renewed interest in glam rock. A source at RCA Recordings said that Adam’s debut album will feature a Queen-inspired sound that will go beyond what he ever did on the show. That sounds hot. Be sure to watch out for Adam’s debut album which is scheduled to drop this fall. Idol champ Kris Allen will also release his album then. I can’t wait for both debuts and see another showdown.

Beth Ditto Gets Slammed

Posted by Sam on 19th June 2009 in singer

In a recent article, British journalist Alex Blimes launches a couple of hits toward Beth Ditto, her band the Gossip and the entire fashion industry, calling them stupid. He says that the fashion industry’s love for the singer is a transparent ploy to “get the feminazis off their case” and that Beth is “just as bad an example to young women as a girl ten stone lighter than her.” The journalist also commented on the release of the Gossip’s fourth album ‘Music for Men’, calling the band a “deeply average, resolutely unsuccessful rock band.” Does anyone even know who this guy is?

Pete Wentz Talks Ashlee Simpson

Posted by Sam on 19th June 2009 in Ashlee Simpson, Fall Out Boy, video

Pete Wentz recently celebrated his 30th birthday a few weeks back and he recently talked about what his favorite gift was. The Fall Out Boy bassist said that “My wife [Ashlee Simpson] gave me a pretty creative video, then she gave me the camera she made the video with which was cool. It’s like a home video and has [my son] Bronx in it.” What’s so spectacular about that? You can make a home video anytime. He could have at least given some details on what Bronx was doing in the video. I wonder what else he’ll be filming with that camera. A sex tape perhaps?

Black Eyed Peas First #1 Album And Highest Sales Week Ever

Posted by Sam on 19th June 2009 in Album, Black Eyed Peas, Records Sale, video

Black Eyed Peas ‘The E.N.D.’ Lands At #1 On The Billboard 200 Chart

Black Eyed Peas’ “The E.N.D.” bows at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, selling 304,000 — the hip-pop act’s best sales week ever. It’s also the first No. 1 album for the group, which had previously gone as high as No. 2. Its last set, 2005’s “Monkey Business,” bowed in the runner-up slot with a then-best 291,000. It had the unfortunate luck to come out the same week as Coldplay’s “X&Y,” which kept the Peas’ at bay when it started at No. 1 with 737,000. -via Billboard.com

Rihanna and new boyfriend glued together

Posted by Sam on 18th June 2009 in Aubrey Graham, Rihanna

The singer who has apparently been dating the Canadian Rapper Aubrey “Drake” Graham can’t get her hands of her new love interest. A source said the following about Rihanna and her new boyfriend: “They were attached at the hip. They were definitely together, but really trying to be discreet.” Right… they always try to be discreet, don’t they? After all, maybe Rihanna is still trying to keep her options open. What about that basketball player she was supposedly interested in a few days ago? What happened to that? It seems that Rihanna’s love tangles are getting more and more tangled with each passing day.

Simon Cowell and other X-Factor judges’ pay set to rocket

Posted by Sam on 18th June 2009 in Simon Cowell

Talent show judge Simon Cowell will boost revenues for himself and others by millions of pounds by keeping the X-Factor voting lines open for an extra 24 hours, it has been reported.

The results show will be extended to Sunday night.

An insider reportedly said: “Lines will open during the show on Saturday and won’t close until the results on Sunday, which means lots of extra cash.”

ITV, Talkback Thames and SyCo, Cowell’s production company, will split the profits, it is said.

Other celeb judges on the show, Cheryl Cole and Dannii Minogue, bring in hefty sums and will command an extra £100,000 from the deal.

A rivalry between Cole and Minogue has drawn viewers, but Cowell recently said the two are now mending their feud.

Cole is said to be earning £900,000, while Minogue gets £750,000.

Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson break-up – repeat

Posted by Sam on 17th June 2009 in Flash News

The infamous pair have apparently parted ways once again and this time it all happened because of Nicole Richie who is a friend of Samantha Ronson’s and cannot stand Lindsay Lohan. Apparently the break-up was because of the fact that Samantha Ronson was invited to one of Nicole Richie’s parties at which Lindsay Lohan couldn’t come. A source said the following about the whole thing: “Nicole refuses even to be in the same room as Lindsay and Lindsay was furious when Sam was invited to a party Nicole held for a mutual friend and she wasn’t. Sam went to the party and it really upset Lindsay.” Right… so round two is coming right up, but thank the higher power that this time it didn’t involve a cat-fight. No other hotel can probably stand that sort of devastation again.

Pearl Jam Bassist Attacked

Posted by Sam on 16th June 2009 in Pearl Jam

One of the guys from Pearl Jam was recently jumped and robbed by three masked scumbags with knives – and the whole ordeal was caught on tape! According to a police report filed in Atlanta, the band’s bassist Jeff Ament, was pulling up to their studio with a friend when the three muggers darted out of some nearby woods, smashed the windows of his car in and demanded money. According to Rolling Stone, the musician tried to take off on foot but the robbers caught up with him, knocked him to the ground and stole over $7000 in money and goods. Jeff suffered a cut on his head and was treated at the scene. But despite having the scene being caught on camera, no arrested have been made.

The Killers Talk Fan Bases

Posted by Sam on 16th June 2009 in The Killers

The Killers front man Brandon Flowers recently had an interview with Entertainment Weekly talking about the difference between their fans in Britain and in America. He said “We’ve been embraced in Britain in a way that I’ll never understand, and it’s such a wonderful thing. But over here [in America], people are still so obsessed with Led Zeppelin and Nirvana, those sorts of bands, that nobody else is allowed [to grow]. It’s not just us; there are a lot of great bands that have been held down or confined by the influence of these people that we’ve put up on pedestals. I’m tired of it, you know? I just want to knock them all off! And people don’t like that attitude. It’s almost like they don’t believe that it’s possible that anybody else can be the real deal.”

Miley Cyrus finds new love on set

Posted by Sam on 15th June 2009 in Miley Cyrus

The singer and actress apparently met her latest boyfriend on the set of “Hannah Montana: The movie”. The dude in question is guitar player Steve Rushton who plays lead guitar in the band featured in the movie and played for the pop band Son of Dork. A source said the following about Miley Cyrus’ new romance: Steve relocated to the US after signing his deal with Disney. Miley couldn’t wait for him to move. He first met her on the set of the ‘Hannah Montana’ film after he was asked to play lead guitar for her band. They hit it off straight away. When they have been apart they have been spending hours instant messaging each other. She is still young but she is smitten with him. They are very much in love.” Right… dating the guy from work… not a very good move on Miley Cyrus’ behalf, but hey, why be skeptical? After all, there’s still a long and winding road ahead.

Michael Hutchence’s mum says she hasn’t seen grand-daughter for years

Posted by Sam on 15th June 2009 in Bob Geldof

The mother of dead rock star Michael Hutchence has reignited her feud with Bob Geldof – claiming he hasn’t let her see her son’s only daughter for three years.

Patricia Glassop, mother of the INXS singer who died in 1997, says she “barely knows” grand-daughter Tiger Lily, 12, and is afraid she might never see her again.

The girl is being raised by Geldof, who became her legal guardian after her mother Paul Yates, his ex-wife, died of a drugs overdose in 2000.

Glassop, who called Geldof “Satan” two years ago, has now told Australia’s Woman’s Day magazine: “I don’t know what Tiger Lily’s favorite colour is, what movies she likes or what fashion she’s into.

“I don’t know anything, yet she is my grandchild, my son’s daughter.”

Glassop’s husband, Ross, Hutchence’s stepfather, died of respiratory failure last month without being able to say goodbye to the little girl.

Glassop, who lives on Australia’s Gold Coast, says she wrote to Geldof several months before her husband died asking permission for him to see the girl one last time.

“I explained that Ross was seriously ill, but I never heard back. Now it’s too late. I don’t understand how any man could do that. It’s not only hurting us, it’s hurting Tiger Lily as well.”

Simon Cowell ‘left lapdancing club with lipstick on his face’

Posted by Sam on 15th June 2009 in American Idol, Simon Cowell, Susan Boyle

Simon Cowell reportedly left a lapdancing club with red lipstick across his face.

The recently-single American Idol judge was spotted leaving Stringfellows, which has a strict rule that clients can look but not touch.

Cowell was spotted out with American Idol host Ryan Seacrest. A private chauffeur picked them up at 3:30am and took them back to Cowell’s posh London home.

Cowell refused to confirm he had kissed any of the girls and reportedly said: “It’s just a rash.”

Meanwhile, it was recently reportedly that Cowell has put Britain’s Got Talent contestant Susan Boyle up in a converted convent in London while she performs on tour.

Posted by Sam on 12th June 2009 in American Idol, Carrie Underwood

Carrie Underwood exchanges a microphone for a softball bat this past Wednesday when she participated in the 19th Annual City of Hope Celebrity Softball Challenge which was held at Greer Stadium in Nashville, Tennessee. The 26-year old American Idol alum played for the Grand Ole Opry Team while Dancing with the Stars cast Julianne Hough and boyfriend Chuck Wicks played on the other team, After Midnight. Carrie’s team won 11-5 after the country singer scored a run, hit a double and got an RBI. Who knew Carrie could play such good ball? She can have a career in sports if she wants to.
