Christina Milian is one candid chanteuse.

The ‘Dip It Low’ diva stopped by The Wendy Williams Show today to plug her stint in the revival of the ‘Rocky Horror Picture Show.’

However, in true Wendy form, the interview covered a whole host of topics – most of which centered on Milian’s private life.

And she definitely came ready to play.

The pair cackled while discussing her high-profile relationships with the likes of The-Dream, Lil Wayne, and Nick Cannon.  

Milian also offered interesting responses when quizzed on which of the trio she’d entertain getting back with.

Check out the fun-filled interview below…

jh-voice

A little rain need not stop the show.

Just ask Jennifer Hudson, who braved the British rain last night at the launch of ‘The Voice UK.’

As reported, the vocal powerhouse has been aptly tapped to serve as a coach on the show’s upcoming series.

The Oscar and Grammy winner will appear alongside will.i.am, Tom Jones, and Gavin Rossdale when the talent-search makes its debut on ITV1 in January (after a four year stint on the BBC).

Hudson’s involvement comes on the heels of her recent signing with Epic Records and spot in NBC’s  ‘Hairspray Live!’

Busy times!

Currently facing fire from Crowe’s PR camp as they seek to discredit her claims, the rapper made her way to the British publication ‘The Sun‘ to explain how a night of fun and flirting turned into a night of Hollywood hell.

Fans who were unable to catch Justin Timberlake‘s rocking ’20/20 Experience’ concert live were treated to a view from the comfort of their own homes when the show became available for streaming this past weekend on Netflix.

Showcasing a series of his hits including ‘My Love,’ ‘Cry Me a River,’ ‘Suit & Tie,’ and more, the Jonathan Demme-directed concert not only showed off the singer’s impressive catalog of hits, but also undoubtedly increased anticipation for the next chapter of his storied career.  And, if a recent sit down with BBC is anything to judge by, the wait won’t be long.

When quizzed on what fans can expect from the forthcoming project – the follow-up to 2013’s ’20/20 Experience’ – Timberlake name dropped some of the industry’s biggest producers expected to contribute to it and more:

jazmine-sullivan-thatgrapejuice

Jazmine Sullivan may not be afraid of ‘Lions, Tigers, & Bears,’ but a recently deleted social media post does show there’s another brigade of beasts she may fear:  Twitter users.

The Grammy-nominated soulstress took to the net recently to share her condolences after learning a fellow musician – renown gospel artist Thomas ‘TC’ Clay – was mysteriously found dead in his hotel room over the weekend.  Yet, while her lengthy eulogy may have good intentions in retrospect, the singer/songwriter seems to have had a poor choice of words – a feat evidenced by the fiery responses of some of his and her followers (prompting her to later remove the post).

Are people overreacting or was Jazzy simply out of line?  Read below and tell us yourself:

A blast from the not too distant past has given Bruno Mars‘ comeback a potent power-up.

Indeed, congratulations are in order because the crooner, who is currently plugging the title track of new album ’24k Magic,’ has scored a huge touchdown.

And it all centres on 2014’s mega-smash ‘Uptown Funk,’ which has just reached a major milestone.

Details after the jump…

lady-gaga-ayo-thatgrapejuice

With just days to go before Lady Gaga‘s album ‘Joanne’ officially lands in stores, the Pop star has debuted new song ‘A-YO’ on the stream scene.

Produced by the singer alongside Mark Ronson and BloodPop, the high-octane cut is rooted in the raw sound promised for the project.

There’s been murmurs about this being serviced as the next single from the LP. And, upon listening, it’s understandable why.

Check out ‘A-YO’ below…

fantasia-thatgrapejuice-product-promotion

Grammy-winning R&B gem Fantasia has always shone as an anomaly (in many ways) for the genre.

A fiery performer whose career-long stage shows boast one of the most consistent deliveries of any of her contemporaries (and beyond), Fannie’s commitment to her craft seemed to be only matched by the commitment of her fan base.  Indeed, much like the failing music industry around her, each of her album’s numbers may have taken hits over time, but without fail, the figures associated with each of the songbird’s first week sales easily soared above the others in her lane  (a testament to fan loyalty if you ask us).

Well, that was until 2016’s ‘The Definition Of…‘ – the latest addition to the soulstress’s self-coined ‘Rock-Soul’ movement.

Released July 2016, ‘Definition’ – Fannie’s fifth album – was executive produced by veteran record producer/songwriter/engineer Ron Fair and featured contributions from the likes of R&B royal R. Kelly, Brian Kennedy, Stacy Barthe, Neff-U, and more.  Yet, while the production credits was lined with proven winners, their efforts seemed lost upon music lovers who generally ignored the set’s two official singles – ‘No Time (For It)’ and the Kelly-penned ‘Sleeping With the One I Love.’

Their failure on the singles chart and streaming front seemed to signal the worst for their parent album:
