The reality of Miley Cyrus‘ predicament seems to be having a stinging effect on the singer.

Indeed, despite initial promise, her stripped back reinvention with new album ‘Younger Now’ hasn’t garnered appreciation from critics or fans; the latter of which have not been rushing to buy the set as they did with prior projects.

During an interview with on Howard Stern’s Sirius XM show today, she offered a reaction of sorts to the matter.

K. Michelle is ready to serve her next musical meal.

The last decade, believe it or not, has seen Nicki Minaj’s discography outsell Lil Kim‘s.

In the same time, efforts have been made to rewrite Kim’s history and unfairly use her more recent career missteps to diminish her legacy and the part she played in building Minaj as we know her today.

Leading the charge to ensure the world throws respect on her name? A fan base who have elevated her to meteoric heights on Spotify.

It’s finally showtime for ABC’s ‘American Idol’ revival.

Katy Perry, Lionel Richie, and Country star Luke Bryan commenced filming for the talent-search in New York City yesterday. And now the first snap of them together has been released. They were joined by returning host Ryan Seacrest.
