Check out the Bajan beauty, Rihanna as she pose alluring for the July's issue of Cosmopolitan Magazine. This will be out on US newsstands, June 7.
There's more, check out her new video for "Man Down," a reggae-hell-of-a-sound which was shot in Jamaica. I am not sure if i like the vibe of this one, though the video is really nice, with all those sun-kissed, sweaty textured frames and local inhabitants featured in the MV.
One thing i noticed, she shot a man, should Chris Breezy be scared? LOLz
After having a change of mind with her supposed-to-be 2nd single 1+1, Queen B -as promised- premiered her official second single titled, Best Thing I Never Had. According to Beyonce, R&B star, Babyface penned this track.
Rejoice, Little Monsters! We are all on the edge of glory.
Lady Gaga debuts at No. 1. Yes, according to Nielsen Soundscan, our dear Mother Monster has sold 1,108,000 copies of her Born This Way album in just one week... and still counting
According to Billboard, that's the 17th album to sell a million in a week and the highest sales week since 2005. BTW is also Gagaloo's first No.1 album, so expect her name and picture on the Billboard Top 200 Chart when it refreshes this coming June 1.
My favorite bad-ass guitar-strumming-chick is back!
I am so excited about her new single: it has been a long time since I last heard Michelle Branch sing, and now, an engaging material like this one, heck. Definitely this is loud music, and will be much talked about.
Sounds familiar? Because Bey sang this in the Idol Finale.
This is what a woman will hum if she wants her boy-toy to make love with her. Because a single finger is boring, Jay-Z's girlfriend performs a simple addition, one plus one equals two - i don't know if she's referring to the "two fingers" used for, you know. :P Ha?! You just made an anthem for your Girls B! very sexy!
This is a stark contrast to her first single: 1+1 is pure, gentle, and hot vocals while Run The World (Girls!) is heavy African-rhythm-ed sound matched with angst-filled singing.
Owl City continues to spread mystical havoc with the release of their single, Alligator Sky.
Pimping up their former vibe, Adam Young added some sexy rhythm to this new endeavor with the help of Shawn Chrystopher (god, i hope i spelled his name right)
The video tells the story of an abandoned earth, while these two people collects samples and reminisce their memories on the planet - and them two are singing while they're doing their 'mission'. Clever, right?
I have to say, Adam's emo-thang makes my heart cry every time i listen to his music. It's like i'm being transported into this surreal world where everything seems magical.
Beyonce is a fierce dancer and she's serious about running the world!
This is obviously a dance video. It's supposed to be grand, with all that hype that has been publicized, but it kind of lacked something, the "climax" or excitement factor, i guess.
I was rooting for more violence but it never happened, instead they rallied in-front of the "desert" police with their exotic strut routines.
Beyonce is soon coming in her trademark gold bizarre shoes!
The black diva has just released her teaser trailer for her new single, Run The World (Girls!)
The video looks quite promising: shots of Bey in different costumes while she and her guerrilla girls will try to overtake the government.
Girls! is the first track off her 4th studio album which will be released later this year.
Since it debuted on I-Tunes, the song never made it to the Top 10 of The Hot 100. Run The World (Girls!) is currently at no 48 on the Billboard Charts.
Lady Gagahas premiered her new track, The Edge of Glory.
The pulsating, glorified-disco-pop-track is clearly The Monster's tribute to the music of the 80's. The new single incorporates loud vocals with a classic vibe accompanied by the "sax."
Certified ear candy, don't blame yourself if you'd want to hear it again... and again.
Who's the real bee-yawtch? No doubt, it's Nicky Minaj. Just recently, the bootylicious rapper debuted her music video for her new single, Super Bass. Concept-wise, it rests somewhere between Katy Perry's California Gurls and Ke$ha's Your Love Is My Drug. More like a horny Barbie Doll in a pink pool party with lots of Kens.'
At least, the artist dubbed by some as the rapping "black Lady Gaga," has managed to entertain and convey her message through this slutty video that she's indeed - the real bee-yawtch. *Applause!
Lady Gaga has just made herself literally close to the 20th century version of jesus christ.
The biker "jesus" that she's with, who sports a golden crown of thorns minus the long-hair-and-beard-your-kind-of-jesus-look, leads his disciples/gang for the "last supper" to Jerusalem
On second thought, maybe The Monster wants more than just praying to the heavens, because for this new video, the pop superstar's relationship with the lord is more personalized -the jesus that she can touch and speak with, the savior that is within her reach.
After all, she proclaims herself Mary Magdalene - a "prostite wrench" who appears to be Judas' former lover and now a recent convert to jesus' cult.
The turning point in Lady Gaga's Judas is the "controversial" cultural baptism.
Her Magdalene dances in a watered tub, together with the two important men in her life. Then the shots shift alternately to a standing woman who wears a signature bizarre costume, on her back, a 30-feet tsunami of Japanese holy water gushes in, eats her, and carries the slut to eternity.
Yes, the video is screaming biblical - expect criticisms and "she did blasphemy again" remarks from the "Christians."
The way i see it, watching closely, it's not a cheap portrayal of the alpha and omega - What Lady Gaga does, is an interpretation of salvation in her own way.
And like what Jesus preaches, if you live in sin, expect that in the end - you'll pay your price
Lady Gaga Tweeted this new still for her upcoming "Judas" music video.
The unstoppable monster, Lady Gaga will debut her "Judas" music video this Thursday (May 5) 7:00 pm EST [May 6, 8:00 am in the Philippines]on E! News.
The Gaga-Gibson helmed video will feature a modern reincarnation of Bible controversial characters; Lady Gaga as Mary Magdalene while Norman Reedus will be Judas.
Today, the track-listing of Gaga's Born This Way Album has been revealed. The special expanded edition of the album contains three new songs built into the regular track list and a second disc with five new re-mixes.
The album was produced by Fernando Garibay, DJ White Shadow, Lady Gaga, RedOne and Mutt Lange.
Ellen DeGeneres Poses With Lady Gaga after The Monster's Judas Performance
The Cultural Baptism Has Begun.
Lady Gaga delivers an amazing presentation of her controversial single, "Judas" on the "Ellen DeGeneres Show." It's an all dance-filled number, no crazy props, no special effects, just The Monster and her swagger!
I'm telling you this kind of performance can resurrect the infamous dicisiple's 2,000 year-old betraying ass and dance with Gaga in all his demented-skelleton sh*t.
Charice knows how to make the right friends and connections - turn out, things are going well for the breakthrough international artist.
Like now, she utilizes her youthfulness by collaborating with guess who.. Nick Jonas.
The Nick-produced and penned track, "One Day" is buttered with beat-infused pop-you-won't-hate-sound that will surely triple the fanaticism out of Charice's fans.
Listening critically, I noticed Charice sounded like "Jojo" -but even better! Is she heading towards that direction? (Jump to 1:20 and hear her hit the high notes - ala Jojo's "Too Little, Too Late")
Nick Jonas has promoted this track on his Twitter page, he said, "Check out the song I wrote and produced for @OfficialCharice from Glee available on iTunes"
On her Monster Ball Tour (April 22) at Newark New Jersey, Lady Gaga has announced the release "week" for her "Judas" music video. If you want to know when, watch the video below. Skip to 1:50 for the announcement!
Meanwhile, Lady Gaga has posted this 50-second clip from Glee's "Born This Way" Episode on her Facebook page this morning. This will air on Tuesday, April 26 on FOX.
Oh yeah! Britney Spears has called in her "friends," Ke$ha and Nicky Minaj to collaborate for her track, "Till The World Ends" off the Album Femme Fatale.
In case you did not know, Ke$ha penned this song for Britney, and as for Minaj - it's confirmed that she'll join the pop-star's tour this summer.
I have just noticed, the rap verse that Nicky did, "Chimpanzees is hating, but I take it all in stride/Put her in a jungle with bananas on the side," is she talking about Gaga?
As for their "remix," i don't know if i like it, like it - i am confused. Let's stick with the original version. Okay!
American Idol Season 7 winner, David Cook is back.
Same distinct husky voice, same "rock" sound, lots of noise - well, he's gotten a little thin.
This sleepy (how ironic since this one is up-tempo) song lacks "vitality," i feel like listening to a brand-new recycled crap. And if your ears are keen, you'd notice a bit of "Use Somebody by Kings of Leon" intro lost in the middle of Cook's new single. (it rhymes!)
David once said in an interview, "If you hear this on the radio, then we’ve already said our last goodbye.”
Weee, at-least, it came from him.
F.Y.I. He will perform "The Last Goodbye" on American Idol Elimination Show this Thursday. (Friday here in the Philippines)
I hope David Cook will eat lots of greens so that he'll come up with something more FRESH.
