Cherish are back!

As reported, the sister quad have reformed after a four-year hiatus. This week brought with it ‘Going In Circles’ – their first offering from their independently funded chart return.

Lil Kim took time out of her own come back campaign recently, to help launch the career of aspiring super star Tiffany Foxx.

Indeed, while she won’t be able to do much for her cause on a corporate front, Kim has gone a long way in pushing the Rap beauty to Urban audiences, stopping by at ‘Hot 97’ for an introductory interview with the ever comical, Peter Rosenberg.

Keri Hilson has had enough.

In what has become a constant occurrence since the release of “that song”, the R&B songstress was again the subject of Twitter abuse after posting an innocent comment on the social network last night.

Via ‘She Is Diva‘:

‘Let’s go Half On A Rooooom’.

This is getting silly.

No really, it is.

Not content with the barrage of insults she faced at the hands of Ciara‘s ‘C Squad‘ after this happened last night, Rihanna‘s life size pet Melissa Forde has taken further aim at the thriving fan base, billing them ‘small’ via an official definition of their name.

She’s the Brit Pop beauty with an army of ‘Aliens’ to get their hands on their debut album.

So, as to keep them hooked on her cause until its arrival, she has taken on Drake‘s rising smash ‘Started From The Bottom’, putting her own spin on the motivational Rap number.

We love it, and have had it on replay since we caught wind of it.

Will you though?

Do not mess with Beyonce.

While this is advice that is rarely given considering the star’s light and bright personality, one Swedish music lover has found themselves on the wrong side of the 17 time Grammy winner, over an incident that occurred in 2011.

Much like our ‘Retro Rewind’ and ‘From the Vault’ segments, readers of That Grape Juice know what avid music lovers we are – especially of hits past.  So in a quest to re-spin the gems and jams of yesterday we introduced a new retrospective segment – ‘TGJ Replay’.

Unlike its ‘Rewind’ and ‘Vault’ predecessors, ‘Replay’ looks to dust off and showcase albums (and eras) from a library of pop music hits.  Today’s ‘Replay’ presses play on pop princess Britney Spears’ 4th album ‘In The Zone’ – arguably her last great stage performance era…

Despite rising to ‘fame’ as the Roxy to Rihanna‘s Pizzazz, Mellisa Forde seems to have convinced herself that the world cares about both she and her opinions.

A little harsh on our part? Perhaps. However, perhaps in forgetting her place as the ‘No Love Allowed‘ singer’s full time shadow, last night saw her take subtle aim at Grammy winning Pop Princess, Ciara and her stunning new cut ‘Body Party’.

Find out what went down below…

1) Kelly Rowland – Kisses Down Low

2) Deborah Cox – Who Do You Love

3) Ciara – Body Party

4) Christina Aguilera – Let There Be Love

5) Luke James – IOU
