Jesse McCartney Suffers A Case Of Bad Nerves

Gina — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 00:02:41 +0000

...and ends up forgetting a WHOLE verse of the National Anthem. He was performing at the NASCAR Pepsi 500, which was broadcast over network TV, and suffered a mental block, so to speak. Poor guy. How can you forget the words to the National Anthem?

Lady Gaga For Gay Rights: “Imagine”

Gina — Mon, 12 Oct 2009 02:35:24 +0000

At the recently held Human Rights Campaign's dinner, Lady Gaga went the classic route instead of using one of her songs. She said "I'm not going to play one of my songs tonight. Tonight is not about me. It's about you." She gained points for that, for sure.

No Tour For Kanye West And Lady Gaga

Gina — Fri, 02 Oct 2009 12:46:16 +0000

"Fame Kills" is what they dubbed the joint tour that Kanye West and Lady Gaga were supposed to go on. They even announced the tour dates, but a mere few days after the announcement, another announcement was released: the tour has been canceled. The reason? Nothing has been said about it.

Justin Bieber: Usherâ€™s Prodigy

Kate Alvarez — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 05:38:48 +0000

If you havenâ€™t seen his video or listened to his tracks yet, then you must be hiding under a rock. At 15, Justin Bieber is taking Hollywood by storm with â€œOne Time.â€

His story is that of your typical YouTube sensation. Three years ago, the then 12-year-old Canadian joined a local singing competition called Stratford Idol and won second place. He wanted to share his victory with his friends and family who didnâ€™t get to see the show, so he posted his videos on YouTube.

â€œBut it turned out that other people liked them and they started subscribing to them,â€ said Justin. â€œThatâ€™s how my manager found me. He saw me on YouTube and contacted my family and now Iâ€™m signed!â€

Itâ€™s not everyday that a 15-year-old gets signed by R&B singer Usher. In October 2008, Justin was torn between signing for Justin Timberlake and Usher. â€œIt turned out Usherâ€™s deal was way better,â€ Justin revealed. â€œBut I still would like to work on a collaboration with Justin in the future,â€ he said during a phone-in interview with Ryan Seacrest.

â€œThings are just happening so fast,â€ he added. Itâ€™s been less than a year since Justin signed to Island Records, and heâ€™s already making the Hollywood rounds. Numerous TV and radio guestings, red carpet appearances, a debut album, a music video, and 535,000+ facebook fans are keeping this lad busy.

His recent stint involves making his â€œFavorite Girlâ€ happy. Justin hollered at Tricia Matibag, winner of his MTV VMA red carpet shout-out competition. Check out this ultimate fanâ€™s winning video entry:

Britney: Alanis Morissette Wannabe?

Gina — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 01:54:54 +0000

They say that imitation is the best form of flattery, but I wonder, was Alanis Morissette flattered that Britney Spears sang her hit song “You Oughta Know?” The pop star covered the song in a concert in Greensboro, North Carolina on Saturday night. You can judge her performance for yourself – watch it on YouTube.

Madonna Goes To Israel

Gina — Mon, 31 Aug 2009 04:25:59 +0000

Madonna has been traipsing around the world, and nothing is stopping her – not even the jeers and boos she received in her recent concert. Her latest destination? The Holy Land, where she visited the Western Wall among other things. She has two concerts slated in Israel.

Madonna Celebrates Birthday In Poland

Gina — Sun, 16 Aug 2009 07:29:10 +0000

Amidst protests from residents who felt that Madonna’s concert date was ill-chosen (it coincided with a major Roman Catholic holiday), the star’s fans celebrated her birthday with her with a couple of songs. To the outpouring of emotions, Madonna replied “I feel your love!” She turned 51.

Jon Gosselin To Throw Vegas Pool Party

Gina — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 01:48:08 +0000

“America’s Favorite Father,” that’s what some have been calling Jon Gosselin these days. I don’t know about that, but I do know that he is throwing a pool party in Vegas on the 29th of this month. Who is invited? Ask the organizers. I think it’s just another publicity stunt. If you’re interested, head on over to the MGM Grand’s Wet Republic.

Japan Gets A Taste Of Linkin Park

Gina — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 03:23:04 +0000

Rock band Linkin Park has not been in the headlines lately but it does not mean that they do not have a strong following elsewhere. Japan recently got rocked by the group for the first time in Mihama Athletic Field in Okinawa. From what I have heard, it was a huge success. Can it be the start of a comeback for them?

Neil Young To Be Honored

Gina — Wed, 12 Aug 2009 02:14:30 +0000

He has never won a Grammy, but he is a two-time Rock n’ Roll Hall of Famer. He has also won the hearts of countless fans all over the world. And despite not being Grammy material (his own words, by the way), he is a certified musician and will be honored during the 20th annual MusiCares, two days before the Grammys.

Gina — Fri, 07 Aug 2009 15:43:22 +0000

Hugh Jackman To Enter The World Of Musicals

Gina — Wed, 05 Aug 2009 04:46:31 +0000

Others may disagree but I think that Hugh Jackman’s stint as a singing and dancing host for the Oscars just made him even hotter. And I think he’s been inspired by that experience as he is joining the world of musicals as the greatest showman on earth, no less. If things go his way, he might be playing the role of P.T. Barnum. I think he’ll do great.

Former Beatles frontman Paul McCartney held a concert Saturday night in Washington, DC. One of the highlights of the night was his rendition of Michelle, which he dedicated to the First Lady. Unfortunately, she was not in attendance as she had already left for Camp David by then. Maybe next time.

Nelson Mandela is a celebrity on his own right, and other personalities from all over the world toasted him on his 91st birthday. This included France’s First Lady, Carla Bruni. And yes, she did perform for him as well. After all, the First Lady was a singer before, wasn’t she?

Michael Jackson Mourned Around The World

Gina — Wed, 08 Jul 2009 02:20:13 +0000

The memorial for Michael Jackson was held at the Staples Center yesterday, and it was an astounding success. For those who were there in person, there could not have been a more moving array of performances. For those in other parts of the world, staying up till the wee hours of the morning was nothing, just as long as they could witness the tribute to their idol. He may be gone, but he will be forever remembered.

MJ Memorial Tickets Released

Gina — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 01:46:34 +0000

Michael Jackson fans are starting to go crazy over the passes that are slowly being released. Over a million fans joined an online “lottery” to get the chance to win a pass to the memorial that is going to be held tomorrow at the Staples Center. Only 8,750 winners will be chosen. As early as yesterday, people have been announcing that they’ve got the Golden Ticket. I doubt that I’ll be one of them. Otherwise, I’d have known by now, right?

Denise Richards Won’t Get Taken To The Ball Game

Gina — Tue, 05 May 2009 00:15:38 +0000

Well, at least if you base your decision on her rendition of the song. She performed during the 7th inning stretch of the Chicago Cubs game on Friday. Self-admittedly, the rendition was horrific.

Gina — Tue, 10 Mar 2009 15:04:54 +0000
