Rita-Ora-That-Grape-Juice

Pop force Rita Ora re-affirmed her spot as Roc Nation‘s top priori last week when ‘I Will Never Let You Down’ became her her fourth UK #1 – and broke a chart record in the process.

One of the cut’s the masses are buzzing about is the titillating ‘Touch The Sky’. A delicious slice of euphoria, the track was performed by the star during a recent showcase in London.

lady-gaga-lip-syncing

Beyond the wacky outfits and wackier wigs, Lady GaGa rocketed to top of the Pop pack thanks to many an epic live performance.

Indeed, many would agree it’s the singer’s potent pedigree as a live performer that’s sustaining her during these “testing times”.

Therefore, it’s little surprise that the Paw Purveyor isn’t a fan of others who…cut corners.

During a new interview with Extra to promote her ‘ARTPOP Ball’ world tour, the 28-year-old did not hold back when host Angie Martinez asked about the topic of singing live versus lip-syncing.

Peep her words below and let us know if you agree!

Worth it.

Elevator. What elevator?

The Knowles-Carter clan continue to put on a united front following the headlines generated by “that” video last week.

Beyonce, Jay Z, Solange, and matriarch Tina Knowles were snapped posing it up together in New Orleans over the weekend.

While some will inevitably scoff at what “could” be deemed damage control, we take on a slightly less cynical stance. Families have problems and families overcome them. Perhaps that’s the case here.

More than anything, though, we’re most eager to see everyone get back to their day job. Beyonce’s blockbuster sales have meant a more laxed approach to promo – which is great for her, but not so much for her adoring Hive. Here’s hoping the weeks and months ahead bring with them more televised performances and unexpected surprises.

Your thoughts?

 

Billboard Icon Jennifer Lopez is hot on the promotional trail for new album ‘A.K.A’.

The fiercely anticipated set serves as the star’s 10th and has garnered buzz thanks to preceding singles ‘I Luh Ya Papi’ and ‘First Love’.

Another of the album’s cuts has also set tongues wagging – the Pitbull assisted ‘Big Booty’.

Produced by Diplo and penned by Chris Brown, the tongue-in-cheek song has commanded much intrigue since the diva dished on it during a recent interview run.

In a bid to whip up heightened excitement, the 44-year-old performed a snippet during her set at Power 106’s Powerhouse 2014 extravaganza over the weekend.
