Unfortunately, the folks over at ‘Planet Hollywood’ won’t be enjoying all said star power has to offer.
For, after presenting her with a deal that would have seen hear pocket $200,000 for a two-night stint in Las Vegas, the company have been rejected by the performer.

August Alsina, ‘Beg For It‘ beauty Iggy Azalea and ‘Black Whiskey’ singer Elijah Blake stand as just three Def Jam acts to welcome a new Head of A&R this year, greeting producer No I.D. as he steps into the coveted position.
Previously the co-head of A&R, I.D. (born Dion Wilson) will now oversee creative moves made by each and every act on the star-birthing label, reporting to its CEO Steve Bartels while managing affairs over at his own label ARTium Records, which houses Common, Jhene Aiko and the aforementioned Blake.
On the news, Bartels shared:
In a year where Def Jam has established such new artists as Iggy Azalea, Jhene Aiko, YG, and August Alsina, no one is better suited to creatively represent and expertly guide our label moving forward than No I.D. He is not only a proven hit maker and creative thinker, but he is a bold leader who is well respected by both the artists and executives alike. Together, we are poised for even greater levels of success.
Usher may serve up suave naturally, however the singer isn’t afraid to lighten the mood when need be.

In the time since, Tamar has posted a sassy comeback while Chris deleted the post.
According to the ‘Loyal’ singer, the latter was by no means an apology nor is one due anytime soon.

So, spare a thought for said superstars today as they learn that they’ve been outperformed by ‘Yonce once again.
Who, what, where and why?

Rihanna‘s bag of tricks suddenly doesn’t seem as deep anymore.
For, album in and album out…her antics are as predictable as her dial-tone vocals.
The pre-release approach to her eighth LP, which fans have codenamed ‘#R8’, is no different. Because, once again, the 26-year-old has resorted to stripping off her clothes.
Case in point, her new cover shoot for Esquire UK.
Being a family site, we can’t post all the pics. But the racier set are floating about on social media and let’s just say Fenty is pulling out all the stops (or should we say all her clothes). In one pic, she’s naked. Literally.
It’s as if there’s the belief that by showcasing her particulars she’ll suddenly ascend to the level of the album-sellers that she otherwise sits behind. If indeed that’s the case, we envisage she’ll be in for a rude awakening. Talent commands respect…not ta ta’s.
