The Spice Girls may be more of a catalogue act these days than contemporary chart-toppers, yet that hasn’t stopped their still-strong fanbase from hoping for a reunion. Especially with the ladies 20th anniversary looming.

However, it appears Posh Spice has other ideas. For, in a new interview with Vogue Paris about her successful foray into the world of fashion design, Victoria Beckham revealed that she’s officially “done” with music.

The revelation comes after years of speculation about Beckham’s alleged friction with the quintet’s other members – alleged friction that would intensify each time a “reunion” rumor or opportunity gathered steam.

In an era which sees artists needing to evolve or evaporate, Ne-Yo has emerged as one of the prime acts embracing a multitude of sounds. Indeed, from R&B to EDM, the Motown hitmaker has quite the varied catalogue.

However, experimentation doesn’t come without it’s drawbacks. For, with each recent release, the singer-songwriter has received ample backlash from those claiming he’s “abandoned his soulful roots”. Despite being an ironic stance, as his latest LP ‘R.E.D’ was very much an Urban affair (lead single aside), it’s one that doesn’t seem to be going away for the masses.

Currently in the studio, Mr Smith told Good Day Atlanta that he’s readying the remedy.

Heartbreak must be the theme of the season.

For, after Tamar Braxton won over the brokenhearted with her slow-jam of a Christmas tune ‘She Can Have You’, we now have ‘Ain’t No Way’ – the new holiday-themed tune from Atlanta beauty Dondria.

Flexing a vocal prowess tuned well beyond her years, Phatfffat’s vocal performance rings clear as a bell over the @SongwriterTC-penned tune.  We’ve certainly added the number to our list of new Christmas faves here at TGJ HQ.  Will you?

It’s over.

Ten weeks after launching the creative venture, Justin Bieber‘s #MusicMondays has now bid farewell to the world with one final song today…named ‘Confident.’

Featuring Chance The Rapper, the steamy jam deal with the matter of ‘experience’ when engaged in matters of the ‘bedroom’ with a lady far more skilled than the Pop heart throb had anticipated.

Watch below as the 27-year-old thrills the 20,000 in attendance with ‘Applause’, Do What U Want’, and more.

First Rihanna & Shakira, now this?

The night was set alight with word that Grammy winning pop superstar Lady Gaga was on board to duet with ‘Womanizer’ wailer Britney Spears – a concept first brought forth by Spears in a recent chat interview with her devoted fans.

With Spears already listing Madonna, Christina Aguilera, P!nk, Beyonce, Miley Cyrus, and Rihanna to her lengthy list of female collaborators, the self-proclaimed Femme Fatale’s inclusion of Gaga would certainly seem fitting.

Elsewhere in the blog-o-sphere, news surfaced that ‘Body Party’ beauty Ciara has been eyeing a collabo with long-time idol Janet Jackson.  As both singers have albums reportedly due in the next year, this is certainly a combo we could see happening.  But, can you?

#BritneyArmy and Little Monsters were sent into a frenzy over the weekend when ‘Work B*tch’ beauty Britney Spears unveiled that her ‘dream duet partner’ would be none other than pop eccentric Lady Gaga.

Spears, in full swing of promotions for her 8th studio effort ‘Britney Jean’, answered the question (amongst a host of other fan driven questions) aboard a live chat last night much to fan delight.

Once word reached Gaga, let’s just say she wasn’t exactly opposed to the idea:
