That Grape Juice caught up with Pop megastar Usher at Capital FM’s Summertime Ball 2012.

With the crooner’s latest singles flying up the charts, many a fan are scratching their heads as to the whereabouts of the video for his current smash ‘Scream’.

Ever keen to ask the questions you really want answers to, we asked the 33 year old just that, as well as his response to rumours of a tour with other R&B acts (the names of which we can’t divulge).

Peep his…err..”coy” response above.

Usher’s hot new album ‘Looking 4 Myself’ is in stores now.

Your thoughts?

No Doubt are back! Well, almost.

Having announced the release date of their comeback album recently, the eclectic Alt-Pop outfit today revealed the title of the LP and its lead single.

From Gangster Rapper to Prime time actor, Ice T is one of a few Rappers to have successfully made the transition from being solely a Hip Hop staple to becoming a well recognized Pop culture figure.

Launching a documentary named ‘The Art Of Rap’ on June 15th, the E! star sat down with Rolling Stone magazine to discuss the release but found himself answering questions on Pop Princess Nicki Minaj.

Earlier this year, Pop icon Madonna struck up controversy when she accused Lady GaGa and DJ White Shadow of ‘ripping’ her hit ‘Express Yourself’ to create GaGa‘s #1 single ‘Born This Way‘.

Going as far as to add a mash-up of the songs to the set of her ‘MDNA‘ Tour, Madonna– much to her own detriment- continues to show no sign of ending her ‘attack’ on the singer even though GaGa is yet to respond.

Well, until now.

For years many awaited Lauryn Hill‘s return, following a decade spent living away from the public eye to raise her family.

Then, in the middle of last year, the vocalist returned to the stage delivering a number of well received sets at festivals around the USA- and dates in and around Europe.

However, just when her career seemed to be finding its footing, today saw a spanner thrown in her works. Reports claim she may be headed to jail for not paying taxes in the years 2005, 2006 and 2007.

Taxes, that add up to become a whopping $1.5 million.

Now she has responded to the claims with a chilling open letter, shedding light on what she purports to be a dangerous music industry.

Now she’s cut ties with the ITV network, it seems Cheryl Cole has turned to its rival BBC to push her forthcoming ‘ A Million Lights‘ Lp.

From her stellar performance on The Voice UK to her to her ‘telling’ set at the Queen’s ‘Jubilee’ concert, Cole’s return to the charts has rather interestingly centered around appearances on the channel.

Now watch her lip synch her way through her new single ‘Call My Name‘ on ‘The Graham Norton’ show, armed with a well produced but poorly delivered backing vocal.

Congratulations are certainly in order for ‘If You Love Me’ beaut Tiffany Evans.

For, in what will come as a surprise to many, she has announced that she is expecting her first child with her husband of two years.

You may not know it, but the man in the picture above is one of Pop’s music most powerful entities.

Yes, as the driving force behind Lady GaGa‘s career Troy Carter‘s influence in the industry- though rarely publicized- has made him ‘the one to go to’ for any hoping to recreate GaGa’s success.

In 2009 there was Nicki Minaj, who reportedly called on Carter to manage her alongside then mentor Diddy in a partnership of sorts. A partnership, that failed to come to fruition for reasons still unknown.

Then came Azealia Banks, who succeeded in landing a deal with Troy earlier this year. However, as reported here yesterday, that deal ended just as quickly as it started, leaving  Banks without a manager.

Now she was spoken on the matter, hinting that ‘egos’ were to blame for the split.

For one reason or another, recent years have seen Rihanna‘s brand ‘tarnished’ with reports of what some might call ‘wild living’.

Yes, almost as if life has been imitating art, Ms. Fenty really has become the media’s ‘bad girl’, accused of putting drink and partying above her craft as a musician.

Now, in response a report by The Sun newspaper, she has struck out at the publication via Twitter.

Miguel is feeling fiery.

Well, at least if a recent interview with Power 99’s Rise & Grind Morning Show‘ is anything to go by.

Without a doubt, Darkchild is one of Pop music’s more groundbreaking producers.

Responsible for a number of chart dominating hits, Beyonce‘s ‘Deja Vu‘ and Brandy x Monica‘s ‘The Boy Is Mine‘, the maestro is now expanding his empire beyond making music for the stars of today and has turned his attention to developing the acts of tomorrow.

Let’s be honest, beneath that endearing Northern accent , her long running damsel in distress act, and those inescapable dance cuts her label stays turning out, there really isn’t much to Cheryl Cole on a talent tip.

In fact, if we’re going to be brutally honest , we’d say that without the benefit of the X Factor PR machine it’s becoming more and more apparent that Ms.Cole is nothing more than a poor man’s Paula Abdul.

Now peep what our friends over at The Daily Mail and Twitter users had to say about her performance at the Queen’s Jubilee concert last night, below…
