As teased here over a month ago, much like his only #1 album ‘Chapter V’, dapper divo Trey Songz is looking to take a dive.

Undoubtedly hoping to make an overdue splash on singles charts and reignite interest in his quinary LP, the ‘Panty Droppa‘ drops ‘Dive’ – a visual which sees him traipse over awfully redundant familiar territory.

Filled with the same old softcore porn risque romps and sexual scenes that have made him famous, is ‘Dive’ what Songz will need to float back to the top of charts? You decide below:

With a UK #1 album and  three #1 singles to her name, the last few months have given Rita Ora more than enough to smile about.

However, with the US launch of her debut album yet to swing by, Ora is yet to duplicate the success she’s had in the UK in the competitive market, which even the likes of Kylie Minogue have struggled to ‘crack’.

Well, in a bid to ensure the album garners as much attention as possible, the star has signed on to star one of the nation’s biggest shows as herself.

And the claws are out!  As reported by SheIsDiva, former CNN anchorman Anderson Cooper, who now hosts his own daytime talk show, took time to address former ‘The View’ frontwoman Star Jones for comments she’d made about him during his highly publicized revelation about his sexuality.

Deeming the announcement a “ploy for ratings”, Cooper addressed Jones on his show this week – implying the TV diva was irrelevant and pointing out her infamous gastric bypass secrets and more.  See his rant above below:

Following Cooper‘s slam, Star quickly took to Twitter to offer the response:

We definitely will have our eyes on this in the coming days to see how it plays out.  Between Nicki Minaj/Mariah Carey and now Star/Anderson, it seems TV‘s real life divas are giving us all the drama we need and more!

This week’s That Grape Juice ‘Cover Starcomes from soulful crooner Karlos Farrar. Watch as the US native takes on the falsetto and melismatic challenges of Jojo‘s latest single ‘Demonstrate’ below:

Kudos to Karlos!  The crooner kept it cool without depriving the songs of the bells and whistles that make it great.  Where so many people overdo it is in their interpretation of the original singer’s runs/riffs, but Farrar didn’t go too far.  Still managing to make the song his all the while…
