After months of speculation and false reports, Lady GaGa has finally revealed the ‘Born This Way’. The Pop megastar will be releasing 2 versions of the LP – both a standard and a deluxe edition – on May 23rd.
‘Telephone’ anyone? Lady GaGa has issued yet another glimpse of her upcoming ‘Judas’ video (set to premiere on May 5th via E! News and ‘American Idol’), which has a striking similarity to her previous clip that featured fellow Pop superstar Beyonce.
Let’s see what the Laurieann Gibson-directed visual has to offer. That reported $10 million budget can’t have been used to pay for headbands and motorcycles alone.
Guess which female rapper attended the L’Amour Fou screening at the Museum of Modern Art last evening! Hint: she was the 1st artist to win the Grammy Award for ‘Best Rap/Sung Collaboration’!
She better strike the iron while it’s hot. Rihanna was spotted in Jamaica yesterday on the set of her Anthony Mander-directed video for ‘Man Down’ -the 5th single from her ‘Loud’ album.
Clearly Rihanna is making the most out of her current popularity before her looks fade. We all know that she doesn’t have the talent on which she will need to rely when age takes effect.
Fantasia has new hair and a new attitude. The singer debuted a fresh hairstyle at the New Orleans Jazz Festival yesterday, shaking things up in her own special way.
For years Nicole Scherzinger has been accused of imitating Beyonce but now it looks like she’ll be compared to Rihanna instead. The singer’s new single, ‘Right There (Ft. 50 Cent)’, has surfaced in full and her West Indian twang sounds striking similar to the red-haired vixen.
Long before Mariah Carey catapulted to the top of the charts on the the wings of her famed 5+ octave vocal range, there was another singer who mastered the extreme limitations of the human voice. That woman was Minnie Riperton and this week’s From The Vault provides a glimpse of her incredible skill.
This performance of the song ‘Reasons’ on the iconic TV show ‘Soul Train’ displays Riperton’s utterly flawless voice. A criminally underrated artist, she was best known for the success of her classic single ‘Lovin’ You’. However, those of us who had the privilege of hearing her entire catalogue know that Riperton was capable of much more.
Thankfully, Riperton was able to leave her mark on the industry before her death at the age of 31 in 1979. Credited for introducing the use of the whistle register to mainstream music, she influenced her peers and followers alike including Stevie Wonder, Leona Lewis, Chante Moore and Michael Jackson. In fact, Carey regularly refers to Riperton as biggest influence on her singing style (whistles, whispery tones).
Long live Riperton! Every time one of us tries to hit a high note in the shower or the car, we have her to thank for our aching vocal cords.
She popped! Mariah Carey finally gave birth to her twins today, welcoming the next generation of diva to the world. However, this event has a special twist.
