As girl groups go, break-ups, make-ups, and all else between often have one thing in common — drama.

The reunion of Pop force Danity Kane appears to be no different.

Fans rejoiced at the (carefully calculated) sighting of the multi-Platinum outfit earlier this month, yet unavoidable was the fact that member D. Woods was no where to be found.

Woods would later confirm that other projects rendered her unable to take part. Naturally, the masses are still keen for tastier tea and pour it she does in a new interview with Hot 107.5′s Bijou Star.

Check out quotes, as well as Aubrey O’Day’s TV show tease after the jump…

Kelly Rowland is hot on the promo trail for new album ‘Talk A Good Game’.

X Factor USA‘s latest judge flaunted her own X Factor at Riverfest in Little Rock, Arkansaw last night – thrilling the thousands in attendance with hits including ‘Ice’, ‘Motivation’, ‘Kisses Down Low’, and new single ‘Dirty Laundry’.

Watch (and more so, hear), Ms. Kelly rock out after the jump…

It’s official!

Fans of  ‘Scream’ singer Usher may do just that now that reports have surfaced the Grammy winning crooner has signed on for yet another season of NBC‘s hit singing competition ‘The Voice’.

The singer is in the middle of season 4 where he and Shakira came on to temporarily replace singers Cee Lo Green and Christina Aguilera.  Now, reports indicate Ush and Shakira will go on hiatus for the show’s fall season (as Xtina and Cee Lo return), but both are due to return for Spring 2014!

The break will certainly give the R&B heartthrob time to not only finish up his forthcoming new album, but also put the finishing touches on a highly anticipated Sugar Ray Leonard biopic that he has been reported to be portraying the boxing legend (source).

In hot promotion of their newest flick ‘After Earth’, father/son duo Will & Jaden Smith took to the U.K.’s ‘Graham Norton Show’ to fill in audiences on what they could expect from the film, etc.  What viewers were not expecting, however, were the slew of surprise guests – specifically cast members of Will’s hit 90s series ‘Fresh Prince of Bel-Air’.

This week’s That Grape Juice Cover Star sails in from sisterly trio Amor Kismet. Watch as the US natives take on Mariah Carey‘s latest Miguel-assisted single ‘#Beautiful’:

Absolutely beautiful!  Aside from the fact that the ladies are easy on the eyes, their harmonic twist to the duet helped make the tune their own without taking away from the performance (or what listeners expect from the performance).

No distracting melisma abuse, unnecessary belting, or overdone showy singing here – a trait that causes many a Youtuber to crash and burn.  The beauty of the sister’s performance was its simple, direct approach.  For that, we give the trio an A+!
