As the saying goes, all that glitters isn’t gold- or platinum for the matter.

For, as living proof of the above, Lil Kim took to Texas hours ago to deliver her ‘Return Of The Queen‘ tour to Southern fans, dressed in a very telling glitter catsuit.

Sans her black cat and broomstick, the songbird’s set followed reviews by a number of outlets (including the LA Times) praising the tour’s creativity but slamming its production value.

Although no stranger to dominating charts on her own, ‘Part Of Me’ maestra Katy Perry is reportedly ready to share a part of her success with a new generation of aspiring singers.  Chatting it up with (and playing cover star to) the latest issue of ‘The Hollywood Reporter’, Perry tells the magazine:

“I’m preparing for it now…And when this record label does come to fruition, I’m going to try and avoid the things that take away any fighting chance for an artist to have financial success.”

The unnamed imprint will be just one of many ventures the young starlet is undertaking (see: new album, 3D movie). Until then, the singer’s faithful KatyCats can catch her posing it up in the full spread and behind the scenes footage of her ‘Reporter’ photoshoot. See it all below:

Permanently pouted-lip pop star Trey Songz has never been shy about shedding his clothes for the camera.  So, as evidenced by the aspiring porn star Virginian’s Dewey Nick‘s shoot with ‘Self’ magazine, such habit isn’t one fans should expect less of anytime in the future.  Posing it up with exotic models, Songz can be seen twist and dipping in the July ‘Music Issue’ of the popular magazine.

Readying his 5th LP, creatively titled ‘Chapter V’, the ‘LOL :-)’ singer may be bringing just that to many of his faithful female followers perusing the pages of the mag.  See more shots and the behind the scenes action below:

If Universal Music‘s plans to purchase EMI‘s recorded music department, the above (Katy Perry & Nicki Minaj) might just become label mates, marking one of the ‘grandest’ acquisitions to take place in label history.

However, in what many a critic saw coming a mile away, the European Competition Commission has objected to the deal, sending Universal a list of issues it has with the proposition.

A proposition, which will see Universal own 40% of  the industry’s recorded music market.

As the former first Lady of Hip Hop, Lil Kim has seen her fair share of feuds- going to jail in 2005 for a shooting related to her spat with fellow Femcee Foxy Brown.

Ever the fire starter, this week saw the Rapstress weigh in on unlikely rival Drake who mocked her in 2010 during her feud with Rap Queen Nicki Minaj.

Now, she has weighed in on him for the first time this year, giving her two cents on his recent brawl with ‘Fortune’ beau Chris Brown.

As one of Pop’s fastest rising stars, it’s safe to say we’re yet to see Rita Ora looking any less refined off camera than she is on.
