For a minute, it appeared as though things were beginning to improve for troubled R&B star Chris Brown. However, a recent run-in with a radio personality, culminated in the 20 year old lashing out at the station for not playing his music, and abruptly bringing the interview to an end. Check out the report via Contact Music, after the jump…

While her ‘Last Girl On Earth’ tour may be in high gear in Europe, things don’t seem to be so favourable in the US for the Bajan star. A reliable source has just informed That Grape Juice that ticket sales for many of her tour dates have yet to surpass 30% capacity despite having fellow ‘it’ girl Ke$ha as her opening act. The US leg of the ‘Last Girl On Earth’ tour kicks off on July 2nd at the White River Amphitheatre in Auburn.

What exactly does this mean for Rihanna? After having 3 top 10 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 (1 of which held the top spot for 5 weeks), a platinum-shipping album and a massive promotional campaign, it’s evident that many consumers in the US don’t consider one hour of crotch rubbing a wise investment. Hopefully this will give Rihanna the cue to get the vocal training that she so desperately needs instead of wasting her time pretending to play musical instruments and changing her hairstyle every 5 minutes.

Sidebar: It looks like other people heard the news as well.

Your thoughts?

Ahead of tomorrow’s première of the video for Christina Aguilera‘s new single ‘Not Myself Tonight’, another still from the clip has surfaced. It’s certainly looking as though the mother of one is going the ‘shock and awe’ route this go round.

Granted it’s her old stomping ground (see: ‘Stripped’ project), it definitely won’t help them pesky GaGa comparisons, will it? Particularly when Xtina is the one struggling to get things popping on the charts, with ‘Not Myself Tonight’ dropping a whopping #23-#49 on the Billboard Hot 100 this week.

In any case, check out Christina talking about working with director Hype Williams on the song’s video below…
