With rumours of Destiny’s Child reunion at tomorrow’s Super Bowl now at boiling point, Kelly Rowland did little to quench the speculation.

The singer, whose new single ‘Kiss Me Down Low’ hit iTunes this week, looked all sorts of lush as she attended (and hosted) ESPN magazine’s NEXT event in New Orleans (home of tomorrow’s Half-Time extravaganza).

It’s a fair guesstimate that Ms. Kelly will be taking to the stage with bandmates Beyonce and Michelle Williams in a mere 24 hours. Exciting times, right?

For now, though, peep more pictures below…

This week’s That Grape Juice ‘Cover Star‘ comes from the smooth stylings of Youtube’s RayGiftedKeys. Watch as the Michigan musician covers Ciara‘s hit slow jam ‘Sorry’.  Start at :38

Good job.  A very stripped down cover of Ciara’s sexy hit, we definitely applaud the Youtube performer’s ability to convey the innocence of the song while still putting an original spin on it!

Kudos to Keys and co.

Seven years after the birth of last album ‘Walk With Me’, reports of a new LP from Jamelia both confuse and excite fans who remain in the dark as to why it’s arrival has taken/is taking so long.

So, perhaps in an effort to remind the world of the voice that took 2003’s ‘Thankyou’ to Double Platinum status in the UK, the ‘No More‘ singer teased fans with a mini cover of the  Frank Ocean classic, ‘Thinking About You’.

From it’s infectious hook to haunting melody, ‘Paparazzi‘ is easily one of the strongest pieces to hit Pop within the last decade…or, dare we say, the last twenty years.

Watch her perform the song, followed by the experiment Scheisse, below!
