There are no if’s, but’s, or maybe’s when it comes to how seriously Beyonce takes her craft. However, in a hilarious new clip, the industry’s top stage blazer shows that she’s able to laugh at herself when things go awry.
While performing set-closer ‘Halo’ at the Montreal stop of ‘The Mrs. Carter Show’ last night, the diva’s luscious locks became entangled in her trademark wind-machine. What followed was a vocally on-point, yet super “static” rendition of the track.

Review: Richard Pittman (That Grape Juice NY)
That Grape Juice was one of select outlets on hand for a private screening of the summer’s newest action blockbuster ‘R.I.P.D.’ days before its July 19th premiere.
The Robert Schwentke-directed flick boasts an all-star leading cast comprised of veteran actor Jeff Bridges, Hollywood heartthrob Ryan Reynolds, and Mary Louise Parker (‘Weeds’). Recently deceased Nick Walker (Reynolds) is recruited to join an after-life crime fighting agency called the RIPD, who hunt and arrest souls or “deados” who escape eternal damnation. With the help of partner Roy Pulsifer (Bridges), the duo uncover a diabolical plot to rebuild an ancient artifact that could trigger the apocalypse. Together they comb the city of Boston in an effort to stop the end of the world.
If you’re in the mood for a metaphysical trip down ‘Men in Black’ lane, then ‘R.I.P.D’ is set to fancy. There are definitely some laugh out loud moments as well as some moments that reveal larger questions. It comes stock with rookie cop vs. veteran, good vs. evil, and witty, comedic writing to boot.
The chemistry the twosome imparted to movie screens was not by no means absent when they were on hand this week at New York’s Mandarin Hotel for an exclusive press conference. Chatting exclusively to a room of tastemakers, critics, and more – That Grape Juice was on hand to get the skinny on the film including their inspiration behind pursuing the roles, the physical preparation and demand of the action sequences, and so much more!
‘Friend of Mine’, ‘As We Lay’, and ‘You Should’ve Told Me’ are just a few of many memorable titles that have propelled R&B belle Kelly Price to prominence. Wooing music lovers into a nearly two decade long love affair with her vocal stylings (decorated with melisma, belts, and oft-lauded range), 2013, however, has proven the range of Price’s talents – as evidenced by two new television ventures – does not rest behind the microphone alone.
Chatting exclusively to That Grape Juice, the ‘Himaholic’ hitmaker dishes on her starring role in TV One’s new hit show ‘R&B Divas: LA’, new music, reality show ‘Too Fat For Fame’, and so much more. As ever, you won’t want to miss this:
‘R&B Diva’ Kelly Price Shouts Out That Grape Juice
Rihanna fans cared not for her feelings two nights ago, when they began pelting her with potato chips during the Manchester leg of her ‘Diamonds World Tour.‘
Kicking off after she reportedly arrived on stage an hour later than scheduled, the drama at the show saw her slam members of her audience during her performance of her 2009 jam ‘Rude Boy‘.

Back in 2008, Urban Pop hit maker Keri Hilson came under intense fire when lyrics she penned for the song ‘Turnin’ Me Off‘ were allegedly aimed at ‘Bow Down’ performer Beyonce.
Though the negative press she received as a result did nothing to silence her success as a commercial act, they did go some way to sully Hilson’s image within the Urban arena…billed the ‘Big Bad’ to Beyonce‘s Buffy.
Now, in a shock and unsettling move, her long time collaborator Timbaland has revealed that she has joined him in penning a song- which sees them apologise to Beyonce and her husband Jay Z.
A unique story below…
Self-proclaimed ‘Rebellious Soul’ K. Michelle bares just that on the heart-wrenching ballad ‘I Don’t Like Me’.
Accustomed to fans seeing intimate aspects of her life via the top-rated VH1 reality show ‘Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta’, ‘I Don’t Like Me’ dives deeper into the starlet’s thoughts – taking to lyric a personal outlook on the delicacy of romance without commitment.
One of many gems aboard ‘Soul’ (due August 13th), get your first peek at Michelle’s latest and weigh in below:
If you’ve heard Eve‘s latest studio album ‘Lip Lock‘, you’ll know it marks one of her strongest studio efforts to date.
Sure, while it’s easy to romanticise commercially impotent albums by billing them winners on a critical tip, the project’s cohesiveness and effortless blend of Rap and Pop see her extend her lead as one of Hip Hop’s more versatile acts- unafraid to cross genre lines and sounding good while doing it.
Now, after watching its first week sales amount to 8,600 units in the US, the Rapper has taken to Kanya King‘s MOBO to share her thoughts on the release and its panned sales.
Her words below…
Much to the dismay of his tightly knit family, last night saw a jury of six women find George Zimmerman ‘not guilty’ for the second degree murder and manslaughter of their son Trayvon Martin.
Now, in response to the startling decision not to find him guilty of what appeared to be an obvious crime, celebrities have taken to Jack Dorsey‘s social media platform Twitter to share their thoughts on the tragic matter.
