Fierce Pop collective The Saturdays have been scorching up the charts with their latest effort ‘All Fired Up’. The title is apt for the group’s success more wholly, as the last three years have seen the ladies wrack up an impressive 9 top 10 singles on the Official UK Singles Chart.

With Rochelle and co poised to add to that with their highest ever first week sales this week, That Grape Juice sat down with them to talk many a topic, including: their success to date, lip-syncing, their forthcoming album, the Sugababes drama, and much more. An impromptu acapella concludes the candid chat. Enjoy!

Check out Pop Rapper Nicki Minaj during her appearance at Mercedes Benz Fashion week last night.

The X-Factor is back and bigger than ever. Unsurprisingly, with this being the audition phase, the talented and talent-challenged came out in equal measure for a crack at progressing to the next stage. Judging the hopefuls are new additions Kelly Rowland, Tulisa Costastavlos, Gary Barlow and original panelist Louis Walsh.

{For those unfamiliar with The X Factor, the show is the UK’s version of American Idol – with a twist in that groups and over 25’s are eligible to enter. Now in it’s eighth season, the show is responsible for birthing the careers of Leona Lewis, Alexandra Burke, Cher Lloyd and JLS. Its US incarnation is set to launch next month}.

When your mom is Whitney Houston and your dad Bobby Brown, naturally expectation is that you follow in their foot-steps. And follow, on her own accord, a young Bobbi-Kristina Brown looks set to do.

Long have we heard word that the 18 year old has been vocally-training (as a prelude to a full-on chart assault) and if her newly released cover of Adele‘s smash ‘Someone Like You’ is anything to go by, her hard work seems to have paid off.

Check out how she fared after the jump…

In a bid to further intensify the buzz for his upcoming album ‘Future History‘, a brand spanking new Jason Derulo song surfaced just moments ago, named ‘Pick Up The Pieces‘.

Listed as Track #7 on the LP which is released on September 27th , the J.R. Rotem produced love song sees the entertainer further embrace the genre of Electro- Dance, the same genre which helped take his earlier release ‘Don’t Wanna Go Home‘  to #1.

Will ‘Pick Up The Pieces’ enjoy the same success? Listen below…

With her debut album set for release in now little less than three months time, all eyes remain of ‘Rich Whores‘ sensation Kreayshawn to see just how both she and the project will fare upon its release.

So last night, in a bid to generate further buzz for the LP, the Bay Area native premiered a brand spanking new song which features none other than ‘Drop It Like It’s Hot‘ Rapper Snoop Dogg.

After a brief rest on the bench, That Grape Juice Cover Star is back! Re-booting our weekly series are UK vocal duo In’Sight, who serve up a rousing rendition of Beyonce‘s ‘Ave Maria / In The Arms of An Angel’.

Check out their performance below:

An amazing showing; one rendered all the more solid by the fact the song is already a task for even the most skilled female vocalist, speak less a male – or in this instance two. Yet, In’Sight’s soulful baritones, effortless harmonies, and commendable annunciation (who’d have known they weren’t fluent in Latin) highlight just why they’re drumming up so much buzz on this side of the pond.

As JoJo‘s comeback single ‘Disaster’ continues its ascend on the iTunes chart, the 20 year old is going the viral route to plug the single and her forthcoming album ‘Jumping Trains’.

In her new webisode series, ‘On Tour With JoJo‘, the singer’s current House of Blues tour with Jay Sean and Joe Jonas, is set to be chronicled ahead of a full-on promotional push immediately following.

Check out episode 1, which sees the Pop belter return to her hometown of Boston. All the action after the jump…

Jojo may be singing about disasters these days, but you are about to witness one.  As has been making its rounds around the blog-o-sphere, a host of has-beens have joined forces to create what is certifiably a historic hot mess of a video.  Led by ‘Grind On Me’ group Pretty Ricky, the visual for ‘Knocking Off Your Heels’, said to be the lead single from their upcoming BlueStars 2 (due early 2012), features legendary R&B group Jodeci and 90s R&B bad boys H-Town.

While fans of all three groups have noticed their collective absences from charts and radio alike, view of this visual may concern and confirm that even more absence is yet to come.

Without further adieu…the late night special.

Check out her rousing showing of current single ‘Who’s Laughing Now’ after the jiz-ump…
