Jessie J jams in her latest release ‘Domino’, flossing (what seems to be) her inner Katy Perry.  And, while the song is quite reminiscent of something her former tourmate would cook-up in the studio, the up-tempo number sees a somewhat restrained Jessie – arguably, the most positive feature of the song.  Fun, upbeat, and just in time for summer, the song is rumored to be the first offering from the singer’s upcoming re-release of ‘Who You Are’.

Is it a hit or does ‘Domino’ fall flat? You tell us after the jump:

Despite rising to success with the likes of ‘So Sick‘, ‘Sexy Love‘ and ‘Miss Independent‘, R&B staple Neyo has struggled in recent years to find footing on the ever changing terrain that is relevant Male Pop/R&B.

Beyonce knows. Universal Music know. And, very soon, you’ll know too. For, the industry buzz surrounding this New Orleans native shows no sign of slowing.

Despite his humble age, the singer-songwriter is no stranger to the industry. Indeed, some may remember his J Records jaunt as part of R&B duo Luke & Q (their debut ‘My Turn’ still garners many a play here at TGJ HQ).

And while that venture didn’t propel James to the heights his talent called for, it also didn’t quel his desire to succeed. As such, he picked up pen and began crafting hits for a bevy of music’s biggest names – including Chris Brown (‘Crawl’) and Britney Spears (‘Kill The Lights’).

True talent, as the saying goes, can’t but be discovered eventually – and it wasn’t long before James’ abilities caught the attention of a certain Frank Gatson. Creative force behind the likes of Beyonce, EnVogue, Tyrese and the King of Pop Michael Jackson, Gatson spent a year honing and refining James, ultimately managing him into a lucrative record deal with Island Def Jam/Universal (by way of producer Danja‘s New Age Rock Stars imprint).

Now ready to emerge from the shadows, James posits a compelling package. For, in an industry which increasingly favours image over substance, his pin-up looks and undeniable vocal ability sees him dually tick both boxes. It’s this combination which has also garnered him a fan in none other than Beyonce; who not only featured him prominently in her ‘Run The World’ visual, yet more over is an actual fan of his music.

So as to whet apetites for James’ forthcoming material, ‘HIT’ play on the clip above for a visual exclamation!

She was indeed spotted in the audience at one of Britney Spears‘ ‘Femme Fatale’ concert shows just nights ago.

However, anybody under the impression that Lady GaGa and the ‘Toxic’ performer were now on speaking terms after months of speculation surrounding an alleged feud may be disappointed to know that this may not be the case.

For after she decided not to publicly respond to a tweet sent to her by Spears’ camp thanking her for the appearance at the show, Ms. Pokerface has seemingly ignored the  Queen Of Pop again, this time on camera.
