A bombshell revelation was confirmed today by Paris Jackson, daughter of the late Michael Jackson. Following the ‘King of Pop’‘s shocking death, his record label (Sony) began scrambling to release his last and final album.

Jackson’s posthumous LP hit stores on December 10, 2010 under the mournful title, ‘Michael’, and was promoted as a self admitted copy-and-paste job of Jackson’s last recorded vocals beefed up with heavy post-production. When ‘Michael’ was released the album was berated with claims that the vocals being heard was an impostor and accused Sony of blatantly trying to swindle fans.

Though an ever-present force on a global front, Shakira has not fared well in US  in recent years.

Indeed, 2009’s ‘She Wolf’ spawned a moderate hit with its title track, yet the album itself tanked, along with its subsequent single releases.

Hoping to reverse those fortunes, Roc Nation‘s newest signee has tapped hitmakers RedOne and Akon to craft hits for her first English-speaking effort in 3 years. Yet, in a somewhat bizarre move, the 35 year old has also enlisted LMFAO – the outlandish outfit behind ‘Party Rock Anthem’. Peep the collective recording in the studio above. {Source}

Despite not even finishing work on the forthcoming Clint Eastwood-directed remake of ‘A Star Is Born’, reports surface that pop megastar Beyonce is one of many A listers tapped for casting of the new movie ‘One Hit Wonders’.  Joined by best gal pal Gwyneth Paltrow, Cameron Diaz and Reese Witherspoon are also reportedly set to star in the movie based on singers whose careers failed them after one hit in the 1990s.  Consequently, the trio band together to become a supergroup.

Bey’s role in the movie has yet been made clear, but if the cast and the film’s director (‘Glee’ creator Ryan Murphy) are anything to judge by, the movie looks to be a knockout!  The news surface shortly after reports that Mommy Blue is also looking to return to the music scene this year following the release of ‘Born’.
