Austin Mahone makes moves for ‘Wonderland’ magazine this month.

Now signed to Elektra Records (once home to Anita Baker) the Pop prince is currently creating an R&B-flavoured album with help from a team of creatives handpicked to turn the set into a chart magnet once it is released.

Only right then, that he promotes the project and its singles by rocking the pages of ‘Wonderland’ with a spread shot by Paul Scala  and stand styled by Ian NXO.

Madonna continues to shatter stereotypes. Because despite over 30 years in the game, her demand has lost none of its lustre.

The Pop supreme has been hot on the promo trail for new album ‘Madame X’ and has announced a like-titled theater tour in support of the set.

Initially, the move surprised many given her gargantuan touring profile. A profile which led many to believe her next natural step would be stadiums.

But, ever unpredictable, Madge is driving in a different direction – and is reaping the rewards worldwide. Especially in London town where she’s had to add a number of extra dates.

For fashionistas and fashion forward fellows, “fashion’s biggest night out” – better known as the Met Gala – is easily the most wonderful time of year.

A  costume party that doubles as a fundraising event for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute in New York City, the outing is an annual assembly of Hollywood’s “who’s who” to show off some truly outrageous and over-the-top ensembles courtesy of top named and well respected designers.  As history has seen jaws dropped courtesy of gowns adorned by the likes of Rihanna, Beyonce, Madonna, Nicki Minaj, and many more, this year’s exhibition – christened ‘Camp: Notes on Fashion’ – promises no different.

Hosted by eccentric Pop diva Lady Gaga, the theme is reportedly inspired by a 1964 essay by famed novelist and filmmaker Susan Sontag that defines the term “camp” as “love of the unnatural: of artifice and exaggeration.”

Mother Monster wasted no time embracing this, premiering a four-in-one ensemble!

Curious to see who turned heads with their odes to the theme?  Look inside to see:

After a decade (plus some) wait for induction, Pop icon Janet Jackson finally got to formally accept her inclusion in the ever elusive Rock & Roll Hall of Fame last night (March 29).  Her powerful acceptance speech spoke volumes as it recounted her humble beginnings and efforts to standout from her brothers to becoming one of music history’s most influential female performers.

Paying homage to the trail blazed by her siblings (Jackson 5 were inducted in 1997, brother Michael inducted as a solo artist in 2001), the diva was sure to thank her familial forerunners and even shout out those who came after her during her trip down memory lane:

I witnessed, along with the rest of the world, my family’s extraordinary impact on popular culture. Not just in America, but all around the globe, the entire globe. As the youngest in the family, I was determined to make it on my own,” Jackson said. “I wanted to stand on my own two feet, but never in a million years did I expect to follow in their footsteps. Tonight, your baby sister has made it in.”

That’s not all she said.  Addressing the challenges of being a woman of color in the industry, Jan also called for the election committee to continue pushing the needle forward as it relates to female representation in the Hall of Fame. Look inside to hear all this and more:
