QUOTE OF THE DAY: CHRISTINA AGUILERA

“I’m here to support all the good that comes out of Africa, rather than all the negative things we’re always  hearing about the country (The London Paper)”. (Christina talks about her then up and coming appearance at The Africa Rising Festival which took place at the Royal Albert Hall last night in London) Somebody really should of told Christina before she agreed to appear at this event that Africa is a CONTINENT, not a country……

FIRE YOUR STYLIST: BEYONCE

Beyonce was photographed outside MTV’s TRL studios in Manhatten New York yesterday (October 14th). What goes through her mind when picking out outfits for an event? She never gets it right. If its not the outfit then it’s the choice of accessories that let her down. Anyway what is this? Her new alternative ballerina look? I have a sneaking suspicion that her mother, resident stylist/seamstress, Tina Knowles is responsible for this mess. I’ve said it before and I will say it again, the woman deserves to be locked up for her heinous crimes []

RAPPER MEMPHIS BLEEK DEFENDS HIS DECISION TO ENDORSE FRUCTIS FLOW SHAMPOO

Memphis Bleek recently spoke to HipHopGame.TV and defended his decision to appear in a commericial for Garnier’s Fructis Flow Shampoo. The rapper who is also Jay-Z’s protege/hype man stated, “Making yourself into a brand. That’s what that’s called, I don’t think niggas understand that”. “You get off the plane in Ireland and that product will be on the shelf. When you see that product here, you see that there. And you get a hell of a cheque. They gave me a hell of a cheque []

VIDEO: M.I.A PERFORMING AT THE DIESEL 30TH ANNIVERSARY PARTY

The UK’s M.I.A performed at the Diesel 30th Anniversary party that took place in Brooklyn this past weekend. T.I and N.E.R.D also performed. I really don’t know how M.I.A gets away with it, I really don’t! Her music is absolute shite yet for some reason the industry’s embraced her wholeheartedly and people (particularly Stateside) continue to lap up her unique brand of garbage.   The “singer/rapper” tied the knot very suddenly several months ago ( to the  son of Warner Music Group’s CEO, Edgar Bronfman, Jr), and []

VIDEO: BRITNEY SPEARS – ‘WOMANIZER’

I wouldn’t normally feature a video/track by Britney Spears on here, but seeing as she is now “officially” back, I thought I would post her much hyped come back single ‘Womanizer’. Was it worth the wait I hear you ask…. NO! ‘Womanizer’ is awful! Utter Pop crap!  As for the video…. smh……. well watch for yourselves….. I always admired the way she presented herself in video’s and on stage. Hair, make-up, clothing, choreography- everything was in place.  But now everything about her just seems slap dash []

VIDEO: BEYONCE – ‘IF I WERE A BOY’

This is Beyonce’s new single, ‘If I were a Boy’ taken from her forthcoming album which will drop on November 18th. I really like this track and love the video.  ‘If I Were A Boy’ also has a Country feel to it. Faith Hill would also sound good on this record.   Your thoughts please……
