Despite its positive intent, Lady GaGa‘s 2011 effort ‘Born This Way’ wasn’t as well received by some of the singer’s fans as it was from others.

Ironically, though boasting groundbreaking production from Hip Hop producer DJ White Shadow, the LP failed to live up to the response garnered by its older sisters, ‘Fame‘ and ‘The Fame Monster’, billed as ‘overproduced’ and pretentious by British publication NME.

Peep these snaps of chart topping sensation Rita Ora, leaving the UK’s ‘KISS FM’ today.

Mobbed by fans as she exited the station’s studio, the starlet’s sighting comes after she spoke to BBC Breakfast and Bang Showbiz on her finances.

She explained:

I’m not bothered about that money now, I leave it to my management to deal with. I’m just trying to keep getting the number ones and enjoy myself at the same time.

The first thing I’d want to buy would be my own house. I’d love to keep living in London. I used to live in Portobello with my parents, so maybe Notting Hill Gate, to go up the hill a bit.

After a slow start, Oprah Winfrey’s OWN network is becoming a weekly must-watch – thanks largely to the riveting ‘Oprah’s Next Chapter’.

Having already scored major interviews with the likes of Rihanna and Bobbi Kristina (in the wake of Whitney Houston’s passing), the show continues its winning streak with a tell-all sit-down with singer/actress Jennifer Hudson.

Set to air on September 9th, the interview sees the Oscar and Grammy winner reflect on her meteoric rise, as well as the much-publicized tragedy which saw her mother, brother, and nephew gunned to death in 2008.

Stock up on that Kleenex, this one is sure-fire tear-jerker.
