It’s a week of celebration for singer Ciara.

For not only did her new album ‘Jackie’ land in stores, her mother – whose name inspired the project’s title and tour – marked her birthday too.

The gorgeous pair were snapped hand-in-hand in New York City last night, where 29-year-old Ci performed in the morning on the Today Show and later in the evening to a sold-out crowd at the Best Buy Theater.

Sharing the pic with her 6 million Instagram followers, she wrote:

All roads lead to May 18th for Jamie Foxx. 

The multi-talented star’s fifth studio album ‘Hollywood: A Story of a Dozen Roses’ hits stores in twelve days time and he’s leaving no stone unturned on his press run.

As well as performing new single ‘Baby’s In Love’ on ‘Ellen’ this week, he also sat down with the talk show maven to discuss his widely debated performance of the US National Anthem at the Mayweather vs Pacquio boxing match over the weekend.

In typical Foxx fashion, his quick-witted answer should silence the naysayers.

After a four year hiatus from the charts, Alesha Dixon is back with new single ‘The Way We Are.’

The ‘Britain’s Got Talent’ judge and former Misteeq member has spent the period since her last project (2010’s ‘The Entertainer’) honing her TV career and being a mother. However, music is once again a top priori for the star – who is releasing comeback effort via her own independent label.

Speaking on the track, Dixon said:

“I’m so excited to announce my new single! I’m bringing it back to my first love, the music! Doing it independently this time feels great, I love being the boss and taking the reins creatively. The message in this track is special to me because it’s about being comfortable in your own skin, having confidence in yourself, ‘The Way We Are’, which at the end of the day is what matters.”

Due for official UK release on June 21st, the song has been previewed in a lengthy teaser.
