UK MUSIC: PREEYA KALIDAS FT SCORCHER – IT’S A PROBLEM

Actress/ singer Preeya Kalidas is back with the new single It’s A Problem featuring rapper Scorcher. …. I don’t see It’s A Problem becoming a major chart hit but it isn’t a bad single. I like the beat but as usual this is a UK effort that could have done without featuring rapper. Your thoughts please. Hit or Miss?

Can’t wait.

MTV VIDEO MUSIC AWARDS 2011 – THE WINNERS

The MTV Video Music Awards 2011 took place last night in Los Angeles, and I would post footage of the best/worst performances but VIACOM (owners of MTV, VH1 and BET) are beasts when it comes to ripping down any of their award ceremony footage that have been posted online. So I am not going to waste anytime posting footage because they will disappear within seconds. But check out the winners list below. VIDEO OF THE YEAR Katy Perry, “Firework” BEST FEMALE VIDEO []

QUOTE OF THE DAY: SIMON COWELL

“I came to the conclusion that she may not be as comfortable here (in the US) because I was seeing a different person. She was like Princess Diana when she would walk out in England, and I accepted the fact that people didn’t know her here, but I think it did have an effect on her.. “I said, ‘Cheryl, you’ve got to raise your game a bit. This is America, it’s a much tougher market.’” Simon Cowell talks about Cheryl Cole’s flop []

VIDEO: PHARRELL WILLIAMS STARS IN REVLON COMMERCIAL

I realise that I have probably jumped on this a little late (commercial was released in June) but it hasn’t (well not to my knowledge) aired on British television yet and I only just came across it today. Anyway check out the “new” Revlon commercial starring Pharrell with actress Jessica Biel (music by Pharrell). …… erm…. Pharrell in a Revlon commercial…. hmmm…interesting.
