Good stuff.

Whitney Houston was spotted performing on the Japan leg of her ‘Nothin’ But Love’ world tour yesterday in Saitama. The diva, who admitted to lip-syncing some of the the up-tempo material during recent performances, sang several songs from her platinum-selling album, ‘I Look To You’. Check for more images below:

Sam Edit: Mimi, come and get this lamb (aka Trent!)

Beyonce and her mother/business partner Tina Knowles tries to go sightseeing in Rio dh Janeiro, Brazil yesterday. The duo were mobbed by tourists and paparazzi while they made their way through the streets. Tina is currently in the middle of divorce proceedings with her husband, Mathew Knowles. Peep more images below:

Lady GaGa took the stages wearing nothing but pearls last evening. The singer performed at the amfAR gala held at Cipriani 42nd Street in New York City during New York Fashion Week where she also accepted an award on behalf of Sir Elton John. Peep more images of the GaGa below:

Toni Braxton has revealed that she is currently working on a reality show which will air on Bravo’s fall season lineup. In a recent interview with Rap-Up.com, the contralto spoke about the project which will feature her family, including her sister/backup singer, Tamar. Here is what Braxton had to say below:

The video for Rihanna’s latest single ‘Rude Boy’ premiered literally moments ago. Check it out above…

Directed by Melina, the clip, if I’m to be entirely honest, is  both a hit and miss affair. Unfortunately, for the Bajan model, it’s more the latter. Getting the ‘good’ out of the way first, the Pop Art look and feel of the video works exceptionally well, and Ms. Fenty certainly gives what is perhaps her most animated performance in any of her videos yet. Despite this, the vid still manages to be distinctly underwhelming. The 21 year old promised much in the way of choreography for the up-tempo cut, yet served up little more than stiff whining and the usual model-esque poses. Overall, not a bad effort, simply one which leaves much to be desired. Oh RiRi….

Singer John Mayer found himself in a wave of controversy today following his comments in a recent interview with Playboy magazine. Check out the interview, and Mayer’s subsequent ‘apology’ below:

Destiny’s Child alumni Michelle Williams celebrated the opening night of her stint as Roxy Hart in the Broadway adaptation of ‘Chicago’ last night at the INC Lounge. The ‘We Break The Dawn’ singer was joined by the production’s cast and crew, as well as other celebrities including Jay-Z and Star Jones. 

Ms. Williams sure is doing her thing on Broadway; first ‘Aida’, then ‘The Colour Purple’ and now ‘Chicago’. I really feel some folk don’t understand just how  skilled performers in musicals have to be, nor how intense their schedules are (usually 8 performances a week!).

I saw Michelle play this role in London last year and was blown away by her performance, truly top-notch. So I’m sure she’ll do a stellar job this go round. Enough of my rambling, check out more pics below:

According to Hits Daily Double, soulful songstress Sade‘s new LP ‘Solider of Love’ is on course to sell between 400,000 – 425,000 copies first week. Yes, you read right!

The hotly anticipated set is the 51 year old Londoner’s first album in over 10 years, and has seen her embark on a whirlwind International media promo tour – including stops at BBC radio here in London, BET’s 106 & Park, David Letterman, and the Today Show.

It’s great to see quality music can still sell. What’s more, it goes to show that regardless of the economy, if the music is good enough, folk will part with their cash to buy it. More power to her!
