When I was a kid, I remember really enjoying the mellow sound of Sade with her hits like “Sweetest Taboo” and “No Ordinary Love” but then she kind of fell off the map for me. I guess my taste in music sort of evolved too.
The other night I was up late just randomly flipping through the channels when I spotted what looked like a new video from her.
I seriously couldn’t believe my eyes since she looked almost exactly the same way that she did two decades ago which is a testament to Sade’s incredible beauty.
The video was …read more

Good Charlotte have been working on a new album and I know a number of people who were really looking forward to it. It looks like fans are going to have to wait a little longer since they have scrapped the whole thing and are starting from scratch.
The band published the following message on their website:
"When we got back from the last trip to Australia, we had pretty much finished recording the record. I went into the studio to hear some roughs and it just wasn’t right.
I couldn’t figure it out. I was so lost. I love the songs, …read more

Black Eyed Peas Given Award By Mistake

The NRJ Awards took place in France over the weekend and there was an embarrassing blunder made at the expense of the Black Eyed Peas.
Presenters Ke$ha and French choreographer Kamel Ouali accidentally called the group’s name as the winner of the “Best International Group” prize. The actual winner was Germany’s Tokio Hotel (honestly, how is that possible!?).
The error occurred because, instead of just listing the winner inside of the envelope, all of the nominees are listed and they just called out the name of the group on top. Well… the other presenters didn’t seem to have a problem!

Recently, the music video for Adam Lambert’s single “Whataya Want From Me” was leaked over the internet. The song is off of his debut album, For Your Entertainment.
Though Adam is totally rocking the song, it was actually an unreleased track from Pink’s Funhouse album. Who would have though?t!
Glambert took to Twitter after the video leaked, saying, “So it leaked. Oh well :) big old watermark in middle of frame though. Will be on VH1, MTV etc tomorrow and on my website on Monday. :).”
What do you think of the song and video? I’m liking both! It’s great to see that …read more
Lady Gaga Faints, Cancels Show

Lady Gaga fainted after having a hard time breathing. From what I’ve read, her symptoms were the result of her working too hard (she has been everywhere lately!).
The singer was pretty gutted about having to cancel her concert in Indiana on Thursday night. It has been rescheduled for January 26, 2010 but Gaga tweeted about her disappointment: “I’ve been crying for hours, I feel like I let my fans down 2nite. An hour before the show, I was feeling dizzy and having trouble breathing. Paramedics came to take care of me, and told me my heart-rate was irregular — a …read more
