Estelle sure looks like the cat who got the cream. I underestimated her, John and Atlantic Records. I’m currently eating humble pie…… Lupe Fiasco… I’ve never looked at him in a sexual way before but I am now! He’s looking kinda sexy in these photographs… 🙂
Estelle celebrated the launch of her fourthcoming album ‘Shine’ at the Paper nightclub in London, last night. ‘Shine’ will drop on April 15th (Europe) April 29th (US).
Singling out Adele and Duffy, who she knocked off the number one spot at the weekend, she says: “I’m not mad at them, but I’m wondering – how the hell is there not a single black person in the press singing soul?

‘Shine’ is ‘scheduled’ for release in late April.
“John calling me the next Amy; I’m not pleased about that. I understand what he is saying; like I am the next takeover artist from the UK but we have no other similarities.” (Estelle talks about John Legend likening her to Amy Winehouse) Estelle needs to give John Legend one bitch lick across the face!
