As one of the biggest groups of all-time, Destiny’s Child carved out a success story few can rival.

It’s little wonder when why the ladies still have legions of fans – 12 years after disbanding.

Indeed, the length and breadth of their present-day relevance was highlighted this week when a rumor begun doing the rounds touting a potential reunion at Beyonce‘s Coachella concert next year. A reunion that would encompass members from DC’s various line-ups.

Will it actually happen though? An update awaits below…

Azealia Banks and Remy Ma both made headlines this week when their fallout spilled onto social media.

It all started when ever-outspoken Azealia critiqued the ‘Wake Me Up’ femcee’s post-prison releases.

Rem hit back hard and brought receipts in the form of countless text messages from Banks – some of which were explicit.

Now, threats of lawsuits are flying – as well as suggestion that it may lead to re-incarceration.

It may be two days until Christina Aguilera‘s 37th birthday, but that didn’t stop the diva from kicking off the festivities early.

Donning a revealing cowgirl getup, Xtina shared her racy party look on social media moments ago.

As we head into the New Year, fans will no doubt be hoping to unwrap her long-awaited new album.

Who’s well on his way to earning his 7th consecutive #1 album?  Eminem, that’s who.

The Grammy-winning rap superstar, whose last opus – ‘The Marshall Mathers LP 2’ – topped the charts in 2013 sent fans into a frenzy earlier this year when he unexpectedly announced the arrival of ‘Revival,’ his latest set (released December 15th).  Although boasting an all-star list of collaborators including the likes of P!nk, Alicia Keys, and more, this studio effort (unlike the seven before it) was not preceded to chart battle by an out-of-the-box hit as its lead single – the Beyonce-assisted ‘Walk on Water’ – quickly sank on charts.

However, if the predicted sales of the tune’s parent project are any indication, ‘Water’s nonperformance didn’t hinder its ability to sail right onto the top of the Billboard 200.  Look inside to see just how many its expected to move by the end of its tracking week next Friday:

Fergie‘s long-awaited sophomore album, ‘Double Dutchess,’ may have quickly double-dutched all the way to the bottom of the Billboard 200 earlier this year, but that hasn’t stopped the songstress from persevering on the promo trail in its support.

Just a day after setting the 102.7 Holiday Jam concert stage alight with a collection of her hits and some gems featured on her latest opus, Fergie Ferg took over to ‘Late Night with Seth Meyers’ to give fans another live taste of ‘A Little Work.’

As if that wasn’t enough, she was also spotted on Taraji P. Henson‘s ‘White Hot Holidays’ special (on a performance roster that featured the likes of Ciara, Chaka Khan, and many more) belting out the festive classic ‘Baby It’s Cold Outside’ with help from ‘Empire’ star Jussie Smollett.

Being one of the best-selling artists in history certainly has its perks.  Ask Eminem who, when seeking female collaborators for his ‘Walk on Water’ single, had his pick of the industry’s top leading ladies.

Who did he choose?  None other than Grammy-winning chart-topper Adele.  But, by the time the single hit the airwaves, it was Beyonce‘s voice blaring from speakers.

How did this come to be?  Find out inside:
