Britney Spears is down with the brown!

The Pop superstar debuted a hot new hair do’ as she sashayed into Elton John‘s annual post-Oscars gala in Hollywood last night.

New locks aren’t the only change in the singer’s life. Indeed, in the last month alone she separated from fiance Jason Trawick, left The X Factor USA, and signed a lucrative Las Vegas deal.

Needless to say, Ms. Spears is embracing all new everything! We just need her to embrace all new choreography and stage presence too.

Though not quite Destiny’s Child, sister quad Cherish served as one of the more notable girl group’s to emerge once Beyonce, Kelly Rowland, and Michelle Williams went their separate ways in 2005.

Enjoying hits such as ‘Do It To It’ and ‘Unappreciated’, the Atlanta bred beauties looked poised for major success. That is, until their record label merged with another – leaving much of the roster, Cherish included, in disarray.

And while two of the group would try and press on as a duo, it clear Cherish is where the heart and money is. For, the ladies have announced they are making a comeback; and sooner than you think too.

Renown for speaking every corner of his mind, Kanye West lived up to tradition at his London concert last night.

In a sensational outburst following a performance ‘Clique’, the rapper relayed his hate for industry businessmen, as well as his dislike of Justin Timberlake‘s new single ‘Suit & Tie’ (being sure to assert his love for friend and song’s feature artist Jay-Z first). Most shocking, though, was West’s words on the Grammy’s – who he colorfully declared can “suck his d**k” after the industry juggernaut supposedly disrespected him.
