Last night, Rap’s brightest export Nicki Minaj performed at Wango Tango, a day long concert held by LA’s KIIS FM.

Serving up a set of her best numbers, which include ‘Did It On ‘Em’ and ‘Roman Holiday’, the MC delivered what we’d say one of her better performances, armed with the structure her set on ‘American Idol‘ lacked back in April.

When Disney acquired Marvel back in 2009, the animosity from the latter’s fans towards the deal was undeniable, perhaps in fear the brand they loved would be compromised to suit its new owner.

However, as the commercial and critical successes of ‘Captain America’ and ‘X-Men:First Class’, it was clear the deal worked best for all parties- Marvel retaining full creative control and Disney reaping the rewards at the Box Office.

Now it seems, this deal got that much sweeter.

For, after just 19 days, their action flick ‘The Avengers‘ has raked in $1 billion worldwide.

With $1.032 million pulled in over the weekend, it sits atop the US box office raising its domestic figure to $373.2 million and so reached the billion mark with the aid of $628.9 million pulled in overseas.

Fans will also be pleased to know it’s sequel is currently in development, set for release circa 2014.

Peep a featurette from the flick above.

The search for ‘The Voice UK’ is finally underway!

Tonight saw the third set of eliminations from the live shows.

Up on the chopping block, after polling lowest in the public vote, were Adam, Issac, Matt Sueleen, and Leanne Mitchell (from Tom Jones‘ “team”), while  Joelle Moses, Tyler James and Frances Wood from will.i.am’s fold also ran risk of going home.

Tasked with sending two of their “own” home, Tom Jones sent Adam and Matt-Sueleen packing, while will.i.am waved goodbye to Joelle Moses and Frances Wood.

Peep highlights from tonight’s episode below…

Despite his last album, aptly titled ‘Future History’, only being certified triple styrofoam by the RIAA, Haitian hitmaker Jason Derulo is pressing forward with work on a new release.

Titled ‘Undefeated’, while still restricted to the confines of a neck brace due to an injury sustained earlier in the year, the singer has kept busy recording new material, judging an Australian talent show, and readying for his American Idol finale performance (May 23).

Recently spotted chatting with our friends over at Vibe, see what else Jordin Sparks‘ boo has been up to and what listeners can expect from the next project:

Look like ‘Strip’ singer Chris Brown is following his own suggestions.

The ‘Take You Down’ divo took to the set of his forthcoming single ‘Til I Die’ to break a few hearts by showing off a few assets.  Assets, undoubtedly, the stageblazer is hoping will help shift some copies of his July due album ‘Fortune’ from shelves.

Until then, see more pics from the set (courtesy of ChrisBrownOnline):

As ‘Die’ is set to be the first rap single lifted from the album, we are also anxious to see what Brown is cooking up for the ‘Sweet Love’ visual.

Whether you like it or not, Rita Ora is here to stay.

Indeed, for one reason or the other, there are some who wrote the starlet off as a 1 hit wonder, following her success with the dubstep smash ‘Hot Right Now’.

Well, today will see many a word swallowed, now that she’s scored her second UK #1 single- breaking an enormous record in the process.

Pop belter Jessie J shines bright and shines loud on the cover of Company magazine’s June 2012 issue.

The 24 year old is currently enjoyed renewed success with her debut LP ‘Who You Are’ – which saw it’s 6th single ‘LaserLight’ break records in the UK. She’s also gaining heightened favour with her role as “coach” on The Voice UK.

Tidbit: Ms. J also has great taste in websites. See what we mean after the jump!

Ciara is back! Well, almost…

This week saw dance auditions and rehearsals commence for her hotly anticipated comeback video. A fact which serves as an emphatic response to any doubt surrounding how supportive her new label Epic are of the single and the project moreover. Indeed, common-practice sees labels throw out singles, gauge a response, and then proceed with videos. However, LA Reid and co are powering ahead full-steam.

Add to this the wholly positive feedback That Grape Juice has heard about the album from highly placed sources (word is, it’s essentially finished), and the climate for a plausible Ciara comeback couldn’t be better. Or could it?

As her weekly trending topics on Twitter highlight, there remain a sizeable sect of folk keen to see her “win”. Yet, there too exists those who can’t wash-out the taste of 2010’s ‘Basic Instinct’ or 2009’s ‘Fantasy Ride’ – the latter of which is criminally underrated. Alas, we digress…

Ever keen to pierce through the smoke and mirrors, That Grape Juice wants to know, then…

Are YOU anticipating Ciara’s comeback?
