Minutes ago, Nicki Minaj called into Funkmaster Flex’s Hot 97 radio show for what we’d call ‘ a showdown of epic proportions’, after he threatened to ‘tear down’ her career after Sunday night’s Summerjam debacle.

Urban Pop force Usher is gearing up to unleash his new LP ‘Looking 4 Myself’ on the masses next week (June 12th). Hence, in continuing his no stone unturned promo approach, the 33 year old performed latest single ‘Scream’ at the XBOX 360 E3 presentation in Los Angeles today.

By no means a “basic” performance, the singer’s showcase tied-in his involvement with ‘Dance Central 3’ –  an interactive choreography based game which comes to the console later this year.

Serial lip-syncer Cheryl Cole attempted to honour the Queen of England tonight by ditching her favourite past-time and singing live.

Yet, as her performance of ‘Need You Now’ with Gary Barlow proved, switching on her mic only highlights her ample inadequacies.

Love her or hate her, but we’d challenge anyone not to respect Nene Leakes’ ascent to the ‘top’.

Using Bravo’s ‘Real Housewives’ franchise as a launching pad for her own media oriented brand, Leakes-like Bethenny Frankel before her- has become one of television’s more bankable stars,commanding respect both on and off the small screen.

Now,she has weighed in on so called TV exec Shaunie O’neal and her ‘Basketball Wives‘.

On the show she told Vibe Magazine:

The truth is the truth. It has just gone too far. Too many fights, my God!

We (The Real Housewives) don’t do that. We definitely have had our verbal fights, but never physical fights. I can’t believe the fighting and the bullying. It looks bad. It really looks bad.

They can’t want to do too much in their careers. A good ole argument, everybody likes that every now and then to tune into, but you couldn’t be trying to have too much in your career because that stuff, it don’t work. You can’t represent a product and be that way. That just doesn’t work.

Not sure what Nene means?

When Rihanna announced she was to star in action flick ‘Battleship‘,expectations-to say the very least-were high.

Armed with the benefit of an all star cast, ‘Hancock‘ director Peter Berg and a budget of $209 million, the release was set to be the action flick of the summer.

However,much like all six of the singer’s LPs, the movie failed at reaching the US #1 and earned the record for being the lowest grossing movie with a budget of $200 million or more.

Now,in response to its well publicized tank, Comcast CEO Brian Roberts has labelled it a ‘unfortunate large miss‘.

On behalf of Universal who released the movie,he confessed:

We’ll have a negative quarter at NBC Universal,driven partly by the two flops,which will leave first-half financials flat to slightly down but right around where the company had expected — except for the effect of the Battleship flop. 

His remarks came during a speech at the Sanford C. Bernstein 28th annual Strategic Decisions Conference in New York last week, hours after fantasy film ‘Snow White & The Huntsman” was confirmed to have generated more capital in three days than ‘Battleship’ has in three weeks,with a cool $56 million.

Here’s hoping Fenty has better luck on her next endeavor.
