As Nicki Minaj‘s fans teem with anger over remarks made by her ex-boyfriend in his new number ‘Lifeline’ her new boyfriend Meek Mill continues to see his brand rocked by the force that is Drake.

The latter’s fans will be aware of Mill’s claims that he employs ghostwriters to create his material for him and of Drake‘s first response on the song ‘Charged Up.’

However, what they may not know is that Drake has recorded another number designed to mock Mill’s supposed dependency on Minaj and his attempt to rattle his career’s cage.

Despite issuing 3 decades worth of religious imagery often deemed offensive, Queen of Pop Madonna is on the receiving end of yet another royal backlash after teaser videos from her forthcoming ‘Rebel Heart’ tour feature a fresh assault on Catholicism.

Indeed, in drumming up buzz for her delayed world outing – kicking off in 6 weeks – the diva lent a behind-the-scenes peek at what fans should expect from the highly anticipated show.  What they may have not been anticipating, however, was a peek at some pole-dancing nuns.

Causing quite the commotion, the view caught the attention of CBS’s ‘The Talk’ panel who, in turn, dealt the diva a fiery tongue lashing.

See the clip below and tell us:  are they overreacting?

It’s been nearly 7 years since powerhouse songstress Christina Aguilera struck out on a world tour.  Despite murmurs and mentions of worldwide treks to support her two latest projects ‘Bionic’ (2010) and ‘Lotus’ (2012), the pop diva has always cited other ventures (i.e. movies, motherhood, ‘The Voice’) as reasons why she hasn’t hit the road.

Apparently, fans have heard enough – especially since she left this year’s ‘Cisco Rocks’ concert in ashes after delivering a scorching hourlong performance of some of her top hits.  Sending supporters into a frenzy, the #Fighters collectively set Twitter alight to motion for a new tour from the Grammy winner to coincide with her next release.

She’s still got it…and “it” in abundance.  The question now becomes:  will she answer her fans’ call?

Like The Weeknd last week, Fetty Wap has taken command of the Hot 100’s upper rankings with not one, not two, but three entries!

While his breakthrough hit ‘Trap Queen’ is still getting a royal reception at radio, the New Jersey-native has sailed two other numbers – ‘679’ and ‘My Way’ – right into the top 20.  The latter has also made its way into the history books with a huge 87-7 leap (the largest leap since Katy Perry pounced from #85 to #2 with 2013’s ‘Roar’).  His entries give him three other distinct honors:  4th artist in 2015 to have two concurrent top 10s, first male rapper (as a leading act) to notch two concurrent top 10s since Lil Wayne in 2011, and first male rapper to have three concurrent top 20s since Eminem in 2013.

But, even with all of his chart glory, it wasn’t enough to dethrone OMI‘s ‘Cheerleader’ which is celebrating its third consecutive week on the chart’s perch.
