After raising eyebrows earlier this week with her Birthday appearance at Millions of Milkshakes, Lil’ Kim went for a slightly more demure look at her concert at The Rrazz Room in San Francisco on Tuesday (July 13th). She looks good.

Despite her ‘Bionic’ album being certified Double Plastic, Pop diva Christina Aguilera is pressing on with new single ‘You Lost Me’. The haunting clip is set to première on July 20th (next Tuesday), however you can now view these exclusive stills from the video – courtesy of our friends over at PopEater above and below…

It’s great to see Ms. Aguilera doing her again, leaving the Lady GaGa outfits and shock-tactics to…Lady GaGa.

Reclusive Britney Spears was spotted entering a Los Angeles recording studio yesterday (July 14th). While there has been much talk surrounding the singer’s 7th studio album, this marks the first time the mother of two has been confirmed to be recording new music for the project.

One can only hope the spark which once characterised the Britney of yesteryear returns this go round. For, as demonstrated with her last two albums (‘Blackout’ and ‘Circus’), the problem is by no means her material, rather her lacklustre performances. Spears was unceremoniously slammed for her 2007 MTV VMA ‘Gimme More’ performance, yet continued to churn out wickety-wack live showings on TV and tours – only this time to mass-praise (no doubt due to her commercial ‘comeback’). Music industry hypocrisy at its best.

In any case, we’re all rooting for Ms. Spears. Here’s hoping she silences the critics.

Popular stage walker Rihanna has been selected to be a judge at the upcoming International Songwriters Competition. The Competition results in 66 winners including a grand prize winner who will share more than $150k in cash and prizes, with the with the top scorer earning $25’k in cash and $20k in prizes. Rihanna joins a list of other artists and industry heads including Timbaland, Kings of Leon and Peter Gabriel. {Source}

Rihanna is not a talented singer in any sense of the word and she is definitely not a songwriter, so it is quite baffling that she could be expected to judge such a competition. In fact, most of the material included on her own projects is actually handed to her, along with the direction of her music and image. It’s all carefully calculated by her label.  What’s next for a Rihanna? A spot on the American Idol judging panel?
