On a talent tip, the likes of Katy Perry and Rihanna fail to hold a light to Lady GaGa.

Alas, thanks to a number of well publicised creative missteps in 2011, the ‘Paparazzi‘ hit maker now finds herself tasked with crawling back on the pedestal the success of debut album ‘The Fame’ handed her in 2008.

Disagree?

Read the singer’s recent interview with ‘CBS Sunday Morning’  where she discussed the high standard she was unable to reach with her latest LP ‘ARTPOP‘ last year, and how and why she feels she “crashed.”

Where this honesty can be found?

With anticipation already sky-high for ‘Black’s third season (set to kick off next year), the show’s cast continue to peddle the promotional trail for its second.

Danielle Brooks, who plays fan-favourite Taystee, stopped by The Wendy Williams Show today to talk about her involvement with the show, her rise, and more.

December has played a major part in 5H history.. So putting our debut album out in December 2014 just felt right.

Currently in the midst of her ‘ARTPOP’ world tour, the singer is gearing up to release her Jazz collaborative album, ‘Cheek To Cheek’, with Tony Bennett next week.
