    Lady Live

    October 4, 2009 /

    Lady GaGa was the musical guest on last night’s Saturday Night Live, hosted by Ryan Reynolds. The Ga performed a hot new rendition of her current single, “Paparazzi”, as well as a medley of her hits including, “Love Game”, a New York inspired version of “Poker Face”, and her new single, “Bad Romance”. Unfortunately the medley performance featured an unfortunate wardrobe malfunction, but we expect that from GaGa. But it was the surprise cameo by Madonna that made the episode so classic. We love to see the two battle it out somewhere other than the charts. Check out Lady GaGa on SNL:

    Play On and On and On and On

    October 3, 2009 /

    Carrie Underwood will release her new album, Play On, on November 3rd and it will feature 13 brand new tracks from the country diva. The album is expected to be her most versatile to date, with collaborations including Max Martin, Kara DioGuardi, NeYo and many more rock, pop, and r&b writers than are typically found on a country disc. The 13-track set will also feature a song with the winners of the reality show The Next Great American Band, Sons of Sylvia. I guess the reality star winners have to stick together and help each other out. If you just can’t wait until November for more Carrie, you can check…

    Carrie Adds New Accolades to the List

    September 29, 2009 /

    First up, plagiarizer? It seems Underwood’s new single, “Cowboy Casanova“, is being accused of sounding awfully familiar to a song by an unknown country lady, Brittany McDonald. Apparently “Casanova”‘s co-writer, Brett James, met with McDonald and heard her song, “Bang!”, and loved it. Months later the Carrie single hit the airwaves. I admit that they have similar takes on the upbeat country song, but it is certainly not like Carrie pulled a Beyonce on Kelly Clarkson’s “Already Gone”. Take a listen to “Bang!” and weigh in. It’s unfortunate that they sound similar, but the controversy hasn’t stopped her fans. “Cowboy Casanova” is already the fastest selling single of Carrie’s career,…

    Britney debuted her new single, “3”, this morning on the Elvis Duran radio show. The song, which will be on her greatest hits collection, The Singles Collection, out in November, will impact radio starting today with a video to come in the next month. Britney, who just finished her “Circus” tour, is said to be filming the video for “3” in L.A. in three weeks. The song is catchy, poppy, and about threesomes (ha!), written and produced by her long time friend Max Martin, it will sure to make an positive impact on the upcoming release.

    Miss Divas?

    September 19, 2009 /

    On Thursday, VH1 revived its “Divas” series with Kelly Clarkson, Jennifer Hudson, Adele, Miley Cyrus, Jordin Sparks, Leona Lewis, and hosted by Paula Abdul. Now, my first thought was they needed to see a definition of diva because the line up was a little mixed. Don’t get me wrong, I love me some Jordin Sparks, but a diva?? Not quite. She needs about 10 more power ballads and at least one more headlining tour, when she isn’t opening for Britney Spears. It was quite heavy with Idol alums, especially with Abdul hosting the evening’s events. I would have gladly traded Sparks for the country diva, Carrie Underwood. But, I guess…

    Kelly & Other Celebs Unleash

    Kelly Clarkson took to her blog to react to Kanye’s behavior at last night’s VMA’s and the girl is pissed! Other celebs reacted via Twitter and the world is a buzz about Kanye West’s douchery. On her blog, Kelly Clarkson wrote: Dear Kanye, What happened to you as a child?? Did you not get hugged enough?? Something must have happened to make you this way and I think we’re all just curious as to what would make a grown man go on national television and make a talented artist, let alone teenager, feel like shit. I mean, I’ve seen you do some pretty shitty things, but you just keep amazing…

    Re-Crap!

    September 14, 2009 /

    The night, that I USED to wait all year for disappointed…again! Maybe it’s because the cable station that claims to be Music Television hasn’t shown a music video in over 5 years, but it was one of the most disappointing nights in music! The show kicked off with a tribute to the King of Pop, Michael Jackson, which definitely delivered some amaze-balls dancing and Janet rocked it, but it didn’t really live up to its hype. Madonna gave a very “unique” intro speech about the very little she knew about him and then reminded us he was a human being.  Then, the first award of the night, Best Female Video,…
