Tina Turner Appears On Oprah
Legend Tina Turner was joined by fellow diva Cher for a special episode of the Oprah Winfrey Show in Las Vegas. As well as performing several songs, the pair were interviewed together about their storied careers, ex-Husbands (Ike Turner & Sonny Bono), upcoming tours and much more. A great interview, I must say.

Cherish Update
Capitol recording artists Cherish have pushed back the release of their sophomore effort ‘The Truth’ to May 13th. The set was originally set to drop on April 29th. To coincide with the release of the record, a second single has been lined up in the form of ‘Amnesia’ (a video for which is set to be shot in the coming weeks). Whilst I’m liking the slow/mid-tempo cut, I feel the girls excel on their more upbeat/club-destined tracks i.e. ‘Do It’, ‘Shoe Fanatic’ and ‘Keep It Fresh’. Kinda has me thinking whether this has any real chance of making an impact on the charts – a much needed occurrence for the group after the so-so performance of their last single ‘Killa’.Hit or Miss?

Remy Ma Found Guilty On Four Charges
The verdict in rapper Remy Ma’s trial was handed down today; Ma, real name Remy Smith, was found guilty on four major charges – two counts of first-degree assault, attempted coercion and criminal possession of a weapon. The charges stem from a 2007 incident that saw Remy almost-fatally shoot a former friend during an argument over $3000.During the course of the trial, Remy’s defence team contended that the shooting was an ‘accident’ – obviously not convincing the jury in the process.
Remy was not found guilty of the remaining charges, which included gang assault and witness tampering. Word has it the victim’s family and friends taunted Remy when the verdicts were read – causing chaos in the courtroom.
The former Terror Squad star could face anywhere between 5 to 25 years in jail. {Source}
I can’t say this isn’t deserved…

New Song: Donnie – ‘Dr. Love’ (Snippet)
With the release of albums by Donnie’s Making The Band 4 cast-mates drawing closer (Danity Kane – March 18th / Day26 -March 25th), many have been wondering what’s going on with his project. Word has it the 23 year old will drop his debut LP sometime this summer, and he is still in the studio working on the record.
Meanwhile, a snippet of a track Donnie completed with producer 7even (Ashanti, Ja Rule etc) called ‘Dr. Love’ has surfaced. While the uptempo cut is pretty solid, it’s makes it hard to not look at Donnie as a ‘Diet Coke’ version of Justin Timberlake. The song could easily have been placed on Justin’s ‘FutureSex/LoveSounds’ record. Neither Donnie’s material nor stint on the show has me amped for his album. He’s gonna need to come a little less predictable than this.

B2K Reality Show Preview 3
Check out the third preview of B2K’s forthcoming reality show:
Watching this back really reminded me of how badly Chris Stokes screwed them over; Omarion comes across kinda wrong too. I’m actually hoping these guys make something of themselves with this comeback – if only just show that you can’t hold people down with such shady tactics.

Bow Wow Rushed To Hospital
Rapper Bow Wow was rushed to hospital immediately following his co-headling ‘Up Close and Personal’ tour stop with Chris Brown in Cincinnati yesterday (December 6th). The 20 year old star is said to be in ‘good spirits and awaiting doctors diognosis’; though his condition is thought to have brought on by ’stress and exhaustion.’
Unfortunately for fans hoping to see Bow Wow on the tour’s stop in Chicago tonight, he will be sitting it out. However, he assures his Chicago-area fans that “he loves them and will be sure to come back to Chicago soon!”
I know some of you may jump on my back, but I can’t help but question the timing of this. I mean, the release of his joint album with Omarion ‘Face Off’ is drawing ever-nearer (December 11th) – amid little hype. If I’m wrong, here’s hoping he makes a speedy recovery…

LeToya Album News
R&B star LeToya served as the opening act on Mary J Blige’s Salinos, California concert this past Friday (July 13th). During the ‘Torn’ singer’s set, she revealed that her sophomore CD – due for release later this year – will be titled ‘Lady Love’. LeToya, then, proceeded to perform the song, which reports described as having an ’80’s groove’, as well as another new track called ‘Don’t Let Me Get Away’. A small tidbit: LeToya also performed a Destiny’s Child Medley (’No, No No’, ‘Bills Bills Bills’ and ‘Say My Name’. It’s great to see that the album is coming along smoothly. After making her mark with the first CD, all eyes will be on whether she can deliver with the follow-up. On a side note, I really would have wanted to see the Destiny’s Child medley she did – for more reasons than one.
