Fifth Harmony are inflicting their own brand of global warming on the charts!

The Urban/Pop quintet are burning up the tally worldwide with their debut album ‘Reflection’, which hit stores today.

Preceded by singles ‘Bo$$’ and ‘Sledgehammer’, the Epic Records set has rocketed to the top of the iTunes album count in a whopping 17 countries…

Madonna-Rebel-Heart-ThatGrapeJuice

Madonna has been deemed many things, but nothing rings truer these days than “trooper”.

The diva’s new album, ‘Rebel Heart’, has been plagued by a series of leaks since last Winter and, despite efforts to spin it in her favour, the singer was today rocked when the finished LP hit the net in its entirety — a month before its March 10th release date.

Billed as a “Super Deluxe” version, the 25-track set features mixed and mastered version of the previously leaked material, but this time includes all the announced features too.

Still, in pressing on, the 56-year-old has not only confirmed her performance at the BRIT Awards (which follows news that she’ll be rocking this Sunday’s Grammy’s too), she has released a sneak peek at the video for new single ‘Living For Love’.

We’re not sure anything will be enough to salvage the catastrophe that has been the campaign, but here’s hoping the video at the very least helps.

Peep the preview below…

Since hitting the reality TV circuit, Kenya Moore has become synonymous with every flavour of messy.

Case in point her shocking turn on The Celebrity Apprentice.

Last night, viewers saw the Real Housewives Of Atlanta star fired from the show by Donald Trump after an epic showdown with Vivica Fox.

Clearly still pressed, Moore stopped by the Wendy Williams Show today and dug her claws into the ‘Kill Bill’ actress and her ‘Housewives’ co-star NeNe Leakes.

A forrest of shade is thrown after the jump…

10 million albums in the US. 190 million singles worldwide.

For Rihanna, the last decade might be described as a dream come true, rising from potential one hit wonder status in 2005 to heights some might argue are iconic, now considered competition by artists she once considered heroes.

Alas, as she gears up to release her eighth studio album, the entertainer finds herself forced to push a lead single some consider to be her weakest to date, doing all of nothing to spark interest in its parent album in the way a new Rihanna single should.

So, ever keen to keep to let you know what’s been on our minds, we’re dedicating this edition of That Grape Juice A&R to Riri’s eighth studio album!

In 1960, the author Harper Lee broke sensitive ground with the release of ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’, the story of a black man falsely accused of a crime he did not commit.

In 2015, the author has revealed that she is to release the book’s sequel, doing so following the murders of African-American teenagers Trayvon Martin and Mike Brown, whose deaths have oft been linked to the book’s slamming of racism.
