MUSIC FAB: Usher Readies 7th Album "Looking For Myself" Posted: 30 Mar 2012 09:55 AM PDT Usher is putting the finishing touches on his 7th studio album, Looking For Myself, due June 12. Get deets about the upcoming LP inside......
Fans of R&B icon Usher won't have to wait much longer for his eagerly anticipated 7th disc, Looking For Myself, as he's recently announced a June 12th release date. And as his Diplo-produced single "Climax" climbs both the video and single sales chart, Usher promises even more genre-bending cuts on the upcoming album. Capping off a successful run over the past few months with “Without You” by David Guetta hitting #1 on the Pop charts and “Promise” with Romeo Santos hitting the #1 spot on the Latin charts, Usher has called on top-notch collaborators like Salaam Remi, Diplo, Rico Love, Jim Jonsin, and Max Martin to help him get another hit album. Will you be copping it?

Posted: 30 Mar 2012 08:21 AM PDT Nicki Minaj has tongues wagging after an awkward exchange with Jennifer Lopez where she pretty much told her to head back to the Bronx because she wants her job! Watch last night's moment inside.....
Nicki Minaj hit the stage on "American Idol" last night to perform her single "Starship," but it's the few moments surrounding it that are most memorable. While chatting with Ryan Seacrest, Nicki said she'd like to come back as a guest judge and sit on the panel. And after Ryan asked Randy, Steven and Jennifer what they thought, Nicki looked right at J Lo and said, "J-Lo, can you scoot over a little bit?" And then Jennifer Lopez (visibly cutting a serious inner-side eye at her too) snapped, "I don't think there's room enough for both of us here!" *Snaps & a swirl* Nicki later addressed the comment backstage saying, "She didn't seem to be having it but she gonna have it!" Then she added, "No, actually, I love J-Lo. I love what she's done for pop culture I have nothing but respect for her and we were just joking around. I'm sure I'll have lots of fun with them when I'm guest judging." But um Nicki, methinks you don't know Jenny like that and we all know that Jenny from the Block demeanor will flip that wig in a quick second. Just sayin'.... Watch the performance and the exchange around (4:40): |
Posted: 30 Mar 2012 07:24 AM PDT Who knew Christina Milian had all these huge side-belly and back tatts? The cutesy singer was spotted looking casual sexy while rocking her bubblegum pink skinny jeans and crop top to lunch yesterday in Beverly Hills. Check out the pics, plus NeNe Leakes & Angela Simmons out and about in the Hills as well.....
After hopping out her Mercedes G Wagon in a colorful bubblegum pink jeans and YSL sandals, Christina Milian flaunted her cute bod while at lunch at Le Petit Four restaurant at Sunset Plaza. And it looked like it was mommy's free time as her 2-year-old daughter Violet was nowhere in sight. Hate huge tatts on women. But it seems nothing makes "The Voice"'s new social media correspondent look anything less than a cutie. And speaking of "The Voice," Chris kicked it with the other Christina, judge Ms. Aguilera, courtside at The Lakers game last night at the Staples Center:
Cute. Meanwhile, NeNe Leakes was spotted grabbing dinner at her fave spot Mr. Chow in Beverly Hills last night:
She rocked her headscarf over what seems like a longer blonde 'do. And, of course, chick goes nowhere without her Birkin.
And earlier yesterday, a gold sneakered Angela Simmons and her pup Juicy hit the nail salon in Beverly Hills: She passed up a man asking for change to make her way into the nail shop: Cute. The Randomness: 1. Terrell Owens isn't catching a break anytime soon. The Cincinnati Bengals baller has been issued a warrant for his arrest after failing to appear at a court date regarding child support payments. STORY |
