I don’t usually get too hung up on nominations unless there is something drastically bogus about them, which doesn’t seem to be the case here. Everything is pretty much as I expected, with some folks’ videos being nominated simply because they are big (see: Drake and Britney Spears) and obvious picks like Beyonce – who I fully expect (and deserves) to clean house with her noms for ‘Single Ladies’.
Later this year, Janet will publish her first book, providing an intimate look at her life and how she has dealt with issues of self-esteem. Janet will reveal aspects not known before about her uniquely successful career not only in music but in television and motion pictures.The next months and new year will also bring another film starring Janet as she joins Tyler Perry in his sequel, Why Did I Get Married Too, followed by a new album slated to released during the first quarter of 2010. {Source}
Writing on her Twitter blog, Robin Antin said: “The Pussycat Dolls are not breaking up and if they ever were, you would hear it from me first.“Not gossip! Album number three is on the way.”This is not the first time that the girlband have been forced to deny rumours of a rift. Earlier this year, Melody Thorton insisted that the singers were still going strong amid reports that frontwoman Nicole Scherzinger was eager to move on. {Source}
