Hip-Pop’s ‘it chick’ Nicki Minaj let it all hang out on the arrivals carpet for the MTV Movie Awards, which was held at the Gibson Amphitheatre in Los Angeles last night.
The ‘Superbass’ hitmaker, famed for her eccentric personalities, served as a presenter at the event with Ashton Kutcher.

With Kelly Rowland ‘Motivation’ sitting pretty at #1 on the Billboard R&B/Hip Chart for a 2nd week, no time seems more apt than the present to release the song’s official remix.
And what a remix it is; Rowland enlists an all-star Urban cast for the latest incarnation of the track; which features R&B crooner Trey Songz, Busta Rhymes, and Fabolous.
The likes of Da Brat, Jerimih, Mario and R. Kelly have served up unofficial takes on the track, which begs the question of whether the official mix is better? You be the judge after the jump…
There seems to be no stopping Jessie J. The British belter features in the latest issue of the coveted Vogue magazine.

“Music makes you lose control”. It indeed does!
This week’s From The Vault is dance-floor filler, ‘Lose Control’ by Missy Elliott – who is joined by Ciara and Fatman Scoop. The high-energy track was released as the first single from Ms. Demeanour sixth studio album, ‘The Cookbook’ (2005).
After the touchdown that was ‘1, 2 Step’, Elliott reached out to Ciara for the 2nd round, resulting in an equally fantastic song (if not, better).
The production on the track (helmed by Elliott herself) gives a nod to the basics of Hip-Hop music by using an Afrika Bambaataa-like beat, all the while staying very “modern” and boasting a near-perfect balance between “Urban” and “Pop”. It’s also important to signify that ‘Control’, with its Hip-Hop meets Electronica composition, was precursory of the Urban-Dance craze that is raging until this day.
With its award-winning video showcasing the dynamic duo’s performing skills, this right here is an absolute high-point of each of the ladies careers.
What’s more, with their artistic chemistry being a match made in heaven (see: ‘Work’, their third collabo), we are convinced the world would love to lose more control with those two. We sure know we would.
Bring on Round IV!
Just days after the premiere of Nicola Roberts‘ ‘Beat Of My Drum‘, another cut from her ‘Cinderella’s Eyes‘ album has surfaced in the form of ‘Porcelain Heart’.

R&B star Keri Hilson this week embarked on a whirlwind promotional trip of the UK. The singer’s most recent stop was London’s ‘G.A.Y’ last night, where she rocked the house with performances of her hits including ‘Pretty Girl Rock‘ and ‘Knock You Down’.

Chris Brown continues his live comeback, lighting up the stage at JAM’N 94.5’s Summer Jam last night. While performing a bevy of hits, the 21 year old said to the sold out Boston crowd:
“So about two years ago they weren’t f**king with me, look at me now”
Ditto.
Check out Brown do what he does best after the jump…
Sales of earplugs have must risen in Baltimore yesterday morning. For last night the purveyor of the nasal neigh, Rihanna was in town to kick off her ‘Loud Tour‘.
Armed with her trademark hair, so-so vocals and 6 years worth of material, the 23 year old treated fans to a performance they would never forget – for better or for worse.
Check out the model in action, performing ‘Man Down’, below…
In a dramatic twist (or great PR stunt), Cheryl Cole could well be back on the X Factor USA judging panel.
Full story below…
With cancelled dates and an all-round lack of buzz, Rihanna‘s ‘Loud Tour’ has reportedly had promotoers worried for months. However, instead of shaming the naysayers by putting on an epic show, Fenty opted to shame herself by trying to give a lap-dance on the trek’s opening night in Baltimore yesterday.
Trying to take a leaf out of Janet Jackson‘s book, the 23 year old pulled a female fan on stage, embarrassing herself by giving the stiffest lap-dance you ever saw.
Check out Ms. Fenty get her mechanical whine on after the jump…
