The video for Jason Derulo‘s brand new single ‘Dont Wanna Go Home’ premiered moments ago. Featuring Melody Thornton (of Pussycat Dolls fame), the moody clip sees the 21 year old dance up a storm is admittedly one of his better offerings.

Whether he’ll be able to replicate live will be interesting to see. In any case, check out Derulo in action below. Does Chris Brown have anything to worry about?

Nelly’s latest studio effort, ‘Nelly 5.0’, was released this week. Featuring collaborations with Chris Brown, Plies, Kelly Rowland, Yo Gotti and Keri Hilson, the record serves as the official followup to the gold-certified ‘Brass Knuckles’ LP.

With ‘Just A Dream’ having sold over 1.5 million downloads (and counting), this album seems to be a true return to form for Nelly. Still, hit singles do not always equate to successful albums. That’s why we want to know: will you be buying ‘Nelly 5.0’? If you already have the record then tell us what you think of it!

R&B singer Omarion has finally released the full version of  video for his new single ‘I Get It In’ featuring ‘it’ rapper of the moment Gucci Mane. The song, which was produced by Tank, has thus far peaked at #99 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #29 on the Hip-Hop/R&B charts. Omarion’s new album ‘Ollusion’ hits stores on January 12th 2010.

What was that supposed to be? Judging by the preview of the video (seen here), I was not expecting to be blown away but this is simply insulting. From the dated choreography to the overuse of tricks, I felt like I was watching a rejected audition tape from ‘America’s Best Dance Crew‘. The mere fact that he dedicated this to Michael Jackson only makes matters even worse. A couple years back, Bow Wow got very upset when an interviewer asked Omarion if he copied Chris Brown. Well now I am certain that he does not as this video proves that Chris is in a completely different league. O could’t even get the moon walk right! Hot mess.

BET Awards 2009: Performances

As many of you know, the BET Awards 2009 took place last night at The Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. Long time readers will know that with the big award shows, That Grape Juice are at the forefront with live coverage and performance videos. However, with Michael’s passing really hitting me (and millions) to the core, the show kinda took a backseat in my mind, only regaining my interest when it began to be advertised as a Michael Jackson Tribute Show following The King of Pop’s sudden death. Check out the night’s performances below:

Shocking: Nude Rihanna Pics Hit The Net!!!
First Cassie earlier this week, and now Rihanna; *fully* nude pictures of the ‘Umbrella’ singer have surfaced within the last hour on Perez Hilton. We won’t be posting the pictures here for several reasons, however they’re not hard to find. Peep the report below, though:

RIHANNA has become the latest star caught up in a nude photo scandal after salacious snapshots allegedly featuring the singer were posted online on Friday (08May09).

Rihanna’s face can clearly be seen in shots that show the Umbrella singer stripping provocatively for the camera, but other photos show only segments of a woman’s naked body.

The most incriminating full-length shot appears to feature the sexy star partially clothed taking a photograph of herself in the mirror of a large hotel suite bathroom. The messages ‘I love you’ and ‘I miss you’ are written on the mirror.

The girl in the photo definitely looks like Rihanna, but the subject’s face is covered by a BlackBerry phone camera.

The seven pictures led to websites like Imagehaven.net almost crashing as fans stormed the Internet looking for the scandalous photos, which reports suggest were taken at The London hotel in West Hollywood, where Rihanna once stayed with ex-boyfriend Chris Brown.

The new photos come just days after Rihanna made her first public appearance following an alleged fight with Brown in Los Angeles on the eve of the Grammy Awards in February (09).

The R&B star performed briefly alongside Kanye West at the Costume Institute Gala in New York on Monday (04May09).

Brown still faces jail time if he’s found guilty of allegedly beating his then-girlfriend and threatening to kill her during the fight. {Source}

WOOOOOWWWWW!!! This week has actually been nuts with all the celebrity ta-ta’s and va-jay-jay’s being seen across the net! Rihanna is the last person I’d expect to see this from; why, I don’t know…I just wouldn’t expect it. That said, it’s interesting that it’s the non-singing singers that this has been happening to. I really didn’t want to bring her name in this, but you wouldn’t see this from a Beyonce for example. Being so high-profile, taking such pics to begin with is always gonna be risque. SMH…

What this means for Rihanna career-wise will be interesting to see…
Your thoughts?

With Chris Brown’s career currently in tatters, the male R&B market definitely seems to have an opening for a new heavyweight – (re)enter Omarion. The former B2K front-man has enjoyed limited success in his quest for solo stardom, however looks set to make another crack at the big time with his new label deal with Timbaland’s Mosely Group / Interscope imprint. While it’s unknown when exactly Omarion’s 3rd LP will drop, this new cut called ‘Comfort’ is said to be the record’s first single.
Produced by Timbaland and featuring Lil’ Wayne, ‘Comfort’, put simply, is a pretty decent mid-tempo (with a thump) which could very well prove a hit in the current marketplace – which seems to favour the repetitiveness of a chorus (“Comfort, comfort, comfort”). What’s more anything Lil’ Wayne touches these days seems to turn to gold. As to whether I like the song myself…I can’t say it moved me much.
Hit or Miss?
