With the announcement that singer Tina Turner would soon be going out on tour after a seven year hiatus, I thought now would be a good time to whip out a clip of my favorite Tina performance of all time. I can’t be sure, but I think the year was 1985 and it was the Private Dancer Tour. Tina was on stage singing one of my favorite songs, “Tonight”, when she was joined by fellow rock star, David Bowie. The chemistry between these two artists is what makes this performance so great and the reason why it has become a classic amongst Tina fans like myself. Read the rest of this entry »
Singer Janet Jackson, who is about to turn 42 years old this month, was spotted out in Hollywood last night with boyfriend Jermaine Dupri. Earlier in the day Janet had given her first performance since falling ill back in March at the United America Concert which was held at the Del Mar Beach. The free concert, in support of our troops, also featured performances by Jordin Sparks, Ne-Yo, Snoop Dogg and a host of other artists. Not much is known about this concert and few if any people outside of army folk in California knew about it. However, the word on Janet forums is that it was taped by NBC and will air on June 1st.

Unlike Beyonce and Jay Z, newlyweds Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon have no plans to play cat and mouse games with the media. Just days after getting married in the Bahamas, the couple made their first public appearance together at Time Magazine’s 100 Most Influential People In The World party- held last night in New York City. Mariah did double duty as not only an honoree, but also as the night’s entertainment. Here she is pictured above looking happy with her new hubby and Time Warner CEO Richard Parsons.

Mariah Carey just married a man she says she has known for all of six weeks. Who thinks the marriage will last? Granted, none of us know Mariah or Nick personally, but we are all adults and have a bit of life experience under our belts, that in my opinion makes most of us more than capable of giving an unbiased answer to this question.

Just 24 hours after being released digitally, Rihanna’s new single “Take A Bow” has already reached the number one position on Itunes- guaranteeing herself another top ten hit on the Billboard singles chart. Much has been made of Rihanna’s inability to move large numbers of albums, but she more than makes up for it in singles sales. To date Rihanna has sold over ten million singles from her three previous albums, and that number will surely grow with the re-release of Good Girl Gone Bad. Read the rest of this entry »
Rapper Lil Kim recently did a photo shoot with famed photographer and video director David Lachapelle. In a newly released photo from that shoot Kim is shown holding a baby with a painted face, while surrounded by naked men, cocaine, needles, and all that while supposedly dressed as the Virgin Mary. No one knows yet what this photo will be used for, but what we do know is that like most of Lil Kim’s photo shoots- people will be talking about them for years to come. Personally, it takes a lot to offend me and Kim’s photo sure doesn’t past the test. Photography is like art and each artist expresses themselves differently. Plus David Lachapelle is known for taking photos that create controversy and thus up his value in Hollywood. He and Lil Kim have done this before and will surely do do it again in the future.
