I’ve always admired the fact that Will is versatile with his craft…a true actor. The movie’s concept, granted a little hard to grasp, seems like it may be worth a look-see. What you think?

‘Seven Pounds’, which also stars Rosario Dawson and Michael Ealy, hits theatres December 19th in the US and January 16th in the UK.

Will you be going to see ‘Seven Pounds?’

Congratulations!

Stay tuned for details of Week 2’s instalment!

Hmmm. Well, it’s very Pop sounding and by that I mean bubble-gum meets the oh-so-popular Electronica sound that is all the rage these days type of ‘Pop’. I’m kinda puzzled as Britney’s last go-round saw her embrace a much more Urban sound – fusing it with Pop. This has me wondering whether she’s alienated/confused her new acquired Urban audience with this. Whatever the case, there’s no doubt this one will be big.

Britney’s new album ‘Circus’ hits stores December 2nd.

Hit or Miss?

In typical 50 Cent fashion, the rapper is stirring up controversy again – this time with Jay-Z. According to the G-Unit general, Jay-Z wasn’t as famous until he started dating Beyonce. Check out the report via Contact Music:

50 CENT has taken a sly swipe at rap rival JAY-Z, insisting the 99 PROBLEMS hitmaker was a “no one” until he wed BEYONCE KNOWLES.

Superstar Jay-Z, real name Shawn Carter, wed the Bootylicious beauty in April (08), and 50 Cent claims it was their union – not the rap mogul’s music – that raised his profile on the international scene.

He says, “I’m a big fan of Jay-Z, but outside of the States and hip-hop circles, no one really knew who he was until he married Beyonce.”

The In Da Club rapper has also disputed reports that Jay-Z is worth an estimated $1 billion, but is adamant he’s not jealous of his fortune.

He adds, “I don’t believe he’s worth that much! It’s all been exaggerated. I’m comfortable. I don’t want for anything so I’m not in a race.”

It seems ol’ Curtis is up to his nonsense again. Don’t you think, should 50 put as much effort into his music as he does in running hi mouth, his relevancy wouldn’t be in free-fall as it is now.

Continuing along the promotional trail for her current effort ‘Sol-Angel & The Hadley Street Dreams’, Solange stopped by New York’s Hot 97 station on the Angie Martinez show recently. During the course of the interview, the youngest of the Knowles clan spoke on ‘that’ Fox News interview, Beyonce, her album and…Young Berg (I know). An interesting listen, I must say.
