Urban Pop belters Fifth Harmony tick-boxed another major achievement ahead of the release of their debut album ‘Reflection’.

For, the ladies were one a few select acts picked to perform for President Barack Obama and family at the National Christmas Tree Lighting event at The White House tonight.

The quintet soared with a vocally sound showing of Mariah Carey classic ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You’ – a cover they officially released to radio, iTunes, and VEVO this week.

As many an artist will confirm, the promo trail for a new project often brings many twists and turns. Just ask Omarion.

The singer and reality star (who has enjoyed a resurgence of sorts on ‘Love & Hip-Hop Hollywood’) stopped by The Breakfast Club on Power 105.1 today to promote his new album ‘Sex Playlist’.

Before touching on the LP (which arrived in stores this week), the former B2K lead used the start of the interview to address the drama surrounding his “member” {Note: as viewers of the VH1 show will recall, O’s girlfriend Apryl made quite the fuss about him being uncircumcised}

After grilling the hosts for poking fun at him about the matter in other interviews, the 30-year-old – unprompted – revealed that he has since had the “snip”.

We’re thinking this skews into “T.M.I” territory. But, promote that album ay.

It would appear Tyga isn’t the only Cash Money act unhappy with how he’s been treated by the label.

From an underground rap group to a mainstream mainstay, the Black Eyed Peas have enjoyed an incredible run.

Following the 2011 announcement that they were taking a break, the assumption was that it was a politically correct means of disbanding.

After all, at the time, their then-new LP ‘The Beginning’ failed to match the success of its predecessor ‘The E.N.D’ and the overall climate for their product had cooled.

However, founding member will.i.am has dispelled any such doubt.

As her husband goes into business with Ariana Grande‘s manager Scooter Braun, Mariah Carey made her way to the ‘Rockerfeller Center‘ in NYC recently to perform at the Christmas In Rockefeller Center event.

There, the ‘Elusive Chanteuse’ delivered a live rendition of her timeless classic ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You.’

Unfortunately, many were left disappointed when the singer served up a vocal performance of the “hell no” persuasion, surprising those who had hoped to receive a voice just as stellar as the one on the song’s official recording.

Why the negative attention the performance got is now bound to worsen?

Mariah Carey may not want a lot for Christmas, but we’re hoping Santa re-gifts her voice back.

The diva’s vocals (or lack-there of) have been at the centre of ample debate since she set sail on her new tour ‘The Elusive Chanteuse Show’ in October. And though her overall vocal climate improved as the trek treaded on, a new performance tonight has re-affirmed that her road to recovery is by no means a linear.

Mimi was tapped to serve as the “major” attraction at this evening’s Christmas In Rockefeller Center event. However, her performance of her self-penned holiday classic ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You’ was attention-grabbing for all the wrong reasons.
