Remember the phrase “I can show you better than I can tell you”?

If not, Naomi Campbell reminds oh-so fiercely a-front of Vogue Australia‘s May 2014 issue.

The 43 year old supermodel, who is currently promoting the Aussie version her fashion series The Face , may be imparting wise words of wisdom to the contestants she’s coaching, yet she serves up the best masterclass when in front of the lens herself.

Cop a gander at J. Hud!

While her new, Timbaland-assisted single ‘Walk It Out’ makes moves on the net, powerhouse singer Jennifer Hudson is still making moves to the studio to put the finishing touches on its yet titled parent album.  But, as we await news on the project, Hudson took to Brown Shoe Co.’s 100th year anniversary in New York tonight to wow a star-studded crowd.  Bumping into fellow hitmaker Nelly, the singer upload the snap (seen above) to her Instagram moments ago with the caption:

“Had a good lil time tonight performing for brown shoe company 100th anniversary . Even Nelly came by to chat with me. Nice guy! #walkitout.”

The post follows news that the ‘Spotlight’ singer will be sharing the spotlight of the 2014 LA PRIDE Festival with controversial rapstress Azealia Banks. See more on that here.

Your thoughts?

 Pharrell Williams’ ‘Happy’ may not exactly be warming the hearts of its competition, but we’re willing to bet its keeping a smile on his face.

As the song’s grip on the Hot 100 refuses to loosen, other crooners are easing their way into the tally’s top 10 with hopes of dethroning the longtime chart champion.  The tune will see its forthcoming weeks try to fend off advances from the likes of Chris Brown’s “Loyal,” Justin Timberlake’s “Not a Bad Thing,” and a surprising rebound by “Talk Dirty” divo Jason Derulo.

Do any of the aforementioned stand a chance of ending Williams’ streak at #1 or is he headed to week #10 on the perch?  Tell us below as the latest Hot 100 chart check awaits below:

…and the Elijah Blake promo train has left the station!

After spending the last two years winning over music lovers with many a live show and the streaming magnet that was ‘Bijoux 22‘, Elijah Blake kicks off the campaign for his debut album this week!

His first move? A reworked rendition of John Legend‘s smash hit ‘All of Me‘, placed an arm in arm with a mellow take on his very own ‘Sing For Me’, showcasing the voice undeniably built for Gospel but “harnessed” enough to woo the Pop disciples his music is yet to win over.

Check him out below!

As two of Hip-Hop’s most exciting newcomers, all eyes are on how the numbers are looking for Iggy Azalea‘s debut effort ‘The New Classic’ and Future‘s sophomore set ‘Honest’.

Both LP’s blasted into stores yesterday after months of delays (and in Azalea’s case, years).
