Already one of the year’s most talked about releases, Jay-Z and Kanye West‘s ‘Watch The Throne’ looks set to get more tongues wagging, after new promotional shots for the project surfaced.

Out today on iTunes, the collaborative effort hits stores in physical form next week. Featured in its accompanying booklet are arty shots which will do little to alleviate those nagging “rumours”. Then again, with such animalistic and religious overtones (see: crucifix), there’s every reason to believe this is deliberate fuel on the ever raging fire.

As much as we us some Janet Jackson, there’s no denying her love for backing tracks. ‘Allowed’ by most because of her high-octane routines, the youngest of the Jackson clan was left red faced recently after her career long practice came back to bite her in her derriere.

For when performing ‘That’s The Way Love Goes’ on the New Jersey stop of  her ‘Number Ones: Up, Close, & Personal Tour’, the whole shabang was thrown off when the 45 year old’s pre-recorded vocal failed to kick in on cue. The result? See for yourself after the jump…

Although rumors have been swirling for months about pop diva Mariah Carey’s involvement on the reality talent competition X Factor USA, the extent of that involvement has yet to be confirmed.  However, producer/media mogul Simon Cowell has been quite vocal of his desire to add Carey to the judging panel.

People reports:

“You can’t say no to Mariah,” says Cowell, 51. “We have to find a role for her. I’m a huge fan of hers – not just as an artist, but as a person, and I love her to death.”

Albeit unknown if the role will be permanent, guest judge, or guest mentor, this is not the first time Cowell has admitted attempting to get Carey on the show (whom he says  “wanted to be involved in the show from day one”).  Given the singer’s reported album due this fall, the show could work as a great outlet to plug it.  And, while the formula yielded alleged diva nemesis Jennifer Lopez mixed results, Nicole Scherzinger and Carey could see otherwise.

But, with the show premiering on September 21st, we’re certain a confirmation of Carey’s involvement (or lack thereof) is forthcoming.  Read the story in its entirety.

Should Mariah Carey be a judge on X-Factor USA?
