BTS was one of the many well known names on hand for Global Citizen Live.
The mega-stars performed their #1 hit ‘Permission To Dance’ as well as their new Coldplay collaboration, ‘My Universe.’
Before BTS lit up the stage with Coldplay, lead singer Chris Martin said of the collaboration:
“We collaborated with a band and we took their average age up about 15 years, but it’s been one of the most fun things we’ve ever done. This is a song we did with BTS. This is a song about love who you love, and only that.”
‘My Universe’ is slated to appear on Coldplay’s upcoming ‘Music Of The Spheres’ album.
News about the R&B diva’s whereabouts have dominated headlines over the weekend after she was found listed on the National Crime Information Center’s site as a missing person.
The posting – which came as the result of her children contacting law enforcement authorities to conduct a check to investigate her wellness – was later slammed by the singer’s attorney, Monica Ewing, as incorrect when she took to press to indicate Price was safe, recovering from COVID-19 from an undisclosed location, and would make an official statement later.
Ewing’s announcement was disregarded by Kelly’s sister, Shanrae Price, who hit back with statements that she wouldn’t believe the ‘Friend of Mine’ performer was safe until she ‘physically saw her’ (and even suggested the two never go lengthy periods without speaking).
Now, Kelly is opening up to silence the chatter. Hop inside to hear her tearful response to the hoopla.
Kelly Price is safe and well, according to her friend – Brownstone singer Nicci Gilbert.
As reported, Price was declared a missing personin Georgia after relatives claimed they hadn’t heard from her for several weeks and were worried as she was prematurely discharged from the hospital where she was recovering from COVID-19.
In the time since, confusion has been plentiful as the chaos played out publicly.
For, while a rep for Price issued a statement saying she was not missing and was fine, her sister has insisted that refuses to believe the claim until she “physically sees her.”
Adding to the melee are apparent issues between members of her family and her partner, who they reportedly argue is restricting access to the songbird’s home.
Camila Cabello was one of many notable names on-hand for Global Citizen Live 2021.
The worldwide event, which simultaneously took place in cities across the globe such as Los Angeles, London, New York, Mumbai, Paris, Lagos, Sydney, and Rio De Janeiro, called for action to halt climate change and stresses the need for funds to combat famine and facilitate mass COVID-19 vaccinations.
Cabello was first joined by boyfriend Shawn Mendes and together they rocked Central Park, NYC with their #1 hit ‘Senorita.’
Thereafter, the 24-year-old delivered live offerings of ‘Don’t Go Yet,’ ‘Havana,’ ‘Never Be The Same,’ and a cover of ‘Empire State of Mind.’
Toni Braxton has one of music’s most iconic voices. So while it didn’t bode well for the length of her stay on the latest season of ‘The Masked Singer,’ it did make for a memorable stint.
Dressed as the Pufferfish, the GRAMMY winner wowed both the audience and judges with epic performances of Dua Lipa‘s ‘Levitating’ and Doja Cat‘s ‘Say So.’
With Britney Spears‘ story once again at the center of the spotlight, From The Vault is back this week to salute the Pop Princess for the very thing that thrust her to the highest heights of superstardom: her music.
Today’s pick is 2008’s ‘Womanizer.’
After a troubled 2007 – which saw the entertainer go through a very public breakdown while ironically dropping her most acclaimed record to date – Team Britney decided to go back to basics with the singer’s subsequent release, ‘Circus’.
Its first single ‘Womanizer’ – written by The Outsyders – was an energetic number that got the job done in earnest. Hitting #1 in numerous countries, including the US, the UK, France, and Sweden, it reached the Top 10 in every country it charted it. Call it a comeback!
The cut was well-received by the critics and was nominated for a GRAMMY in 2009.
Joseph Kahn was tapped to helm the song’s visual; apt as he was also the director of Spears’ iconic ‘Toxic’ and ‘Stronger’ videos.
The high-octane affair finds Brit transforming as she follows her boyfriend going about his day.
While lacking the all-out choreography that had her previous work, the video was clearly a return to form for the Pop star, and was nominated in the Video Of The Year category at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards.
**********
With the entertainer seemingly on the verge of emancipation from the conservatorship saga, we hope that someday soon she can return to the scene, on her own terms.
Say what you will about Ms. Spears but she can deliver a bop, as well as an epic performance – when she wants to.
Here’s hoping there are more stage blazing days ahead.
Chloe x Halle reunited for a worthy cause at Global Citizen Live 2021.
The seismic event, which simultaneously took place in cities across the globe such as Los Angeles, London, New York, Mumbai, Paris, Lagos, Sydney, and Rio De Janeiro, calls for action to halt climate change and stresses the need for funds to combat famine and facilitate mass COVID-19 vaccinations.
Parkwood’s singing sisters were on hand at the LA spectacle, where they delivered dynamic renditions of ‘Do It,’ ‘Cool People,’ and more at the Greek Theater.
The showing comes as Chloe struts forward on her solo journey with debut hit ‘Have Mercy’ and Halle gears up for the release of ‘The Little Mermaid’ – which she headlines in the lead role of Ariel.
In the here and now, peep their performances below…
Jennifer Lopez was on-hand at Global Citizen Live 2021 and slayed the stage for a worthy cause.
The mammoth event, which simultaneously took place in cities across the globe such as Los Angeles, London, New York, Mumbai, Paris, Lagos, Sydney, and Rio De Janeiro, calls for action to halt climate change and stresses the need for funds to combat famine and facilitate mass COVID-19 vaccinations.
Armed with a troop of dancers and a full band, J.Lo lit up the stage with bops such as ‘Jenny From The Block’ and ‘All I Have’ – the latter of which reunited her LL Cool J on stage.
Burna Boy was one of the many notable names who rocked the stage at Global Citizen 2021.
Held simultaneously in cities across the world such as Los Angeles, London, New York, Mumbai, Paris, Lagos, Sydney, and Rio De Janeiro, the event called for action to halt climate change and stresses the need for funds to combat famine and facilitate mass COVID-19 vaccinations.
The GRAMMY Award-winner took command of Central Park in NYC, blazing through live showings of hits such as ‘Anybody,’ ‘Ye,’ and recent single ‘Kilometre.’
Nicki Minaj made her grand return to the stage tonight with an unannounced performance at Lil Baby‘s Los Angeles Staples Center show.
The femcee has been on a break of sorts since the birth of her son last year. More recently, she revealed that she bailed on an appearance at the MTV Video Music Awards last month due to concerns around the COVID-19 vaccine. A remark which ignited a chaotic set of weeks for Minaj.
With the latter in rearview, the rapper powered through live performances of her remix to Bia’s ‘Whole Lotta Money’ and ‘Seeing Green.’
Kelly Price made headlines worldwide yesterday when she was declared a missing personafter her family filed a report with authorities advising that they had not heard from her following her abrupt release from the hospital.
The singer had been recovering from the effects of COVID-19 and loved ones expressed particular worry given that she isn’t considered to be back in fighting form.
It was further claimed that Price’s boyfriend wasn’t allowing her family to visit their residence; a welfare check by officers found no foul play but presumably found no trace of the performer. Hence, the official labeling as a missing person.
Confusion surfaced when a rep issued a statement stressing that Price was not missing, only for the star’s sister to assert that she would not believe it until she “physically sees her.”
Now, Price herself has seemingly resurfaced and weighed in on the chaos.
