Britney hits the shops

The Circus is about to up and leave town for good in the next few days and Britney's making the most of her time Down Under by hitting the Aussie shops for a spot of retail therapy.

Britster evidentally had some change in her pocket, splashing out a reported 4618.45 dollars in just 45 minutes. Now for the creeper details! Britney reportedly bought clothes for her sons from the Jack and Milly clothing line as well as coats, cardigans, jeans and a 'party frock' for herself from lines such as DKNY, Cacheral, Armani and Camila and Mark. How they know this I do not know.

Her appearance at the Melbourne shopping strip provoked a mass word-of-mouth passing through Twitter and around 300 fans reportedly turned up to see her flashing the clash.

Bad news for anyone hoping for a Beyonce ft.Camilla record

Camilla Parker Bowles (took a lot for me not to write bowels there) has spoken out against the 'glamorisation' of violence and sex in hip-hop videos, citing Beyonce's 'Video Phone' promo as a 'terrifying' example. Speaking of 'Yonce's latest offering (three and a half minutes of toy-gun-toting, hair flicking, Gaga-awkard-colloborational delight) and other videos within the genre the Dutchess said;

'I am sure they trigger a response within some of the young people, I can never understand how they get away with making those things.'

The Dutchess went on to discuss how today's teachers are 'too kind' on todays youth and how a 'breakdown in discipline' had taken it's effect on the nation.

I have to say I do agree slightly, when I saw 'Video Phone' I immediately wondered why Beyonce and Gaga where waving and pointing toy guns and the like around, it's not adding anything to the song or the video. And let's not forget the 'she's a rolemodel' argument which was rolled out again. What do you think!?

Britney's Single Collection booklet!

Here are some actually quite amazing scans/images from the booklet of Britney's Single Collection, due for release next week! The booklet for the standard edition contains images from each of the included tracks music videos, accompanied by facts and statistics and what appears to be a section of the lyrics. Quite good indeed. What I would have really loved is a mini comment from Britney about each track. Would've been a nice touch eh? MAKE ME A JIVE EXEC.

Timbaland single cover mega-post

Mega is a slight exaggeration. The use of the word slight here is also an exaggeration. BUT HERE ARE TWO NEW TIMBALAND SINGLE COVERS ANYWAY.

The first is for 'Carry Out' featuring Justin Timberlake, just in case you hadn't seen that. It is appoximately a 4 on the bore-o-meter, with 1 being the most boring.

The second is for 'Say Something' featuring Drake, also just in case you couldn't see that. Timbaland has nicked Keri Hilson's font! Approx. 7/10 on the bore-0-meter. It wins points for the minty background.

Nice.

Chris Brown is a crawler...

...but here's something you may not already know, Brown recently shot the video for upcoming single 'Crawl' in the desert. Where he belongs (jokez! -sorta)

In these recently released shots, a dressed up Brown (going for the sensitive yet intelligent look with the glasses and overcoat. Either that or someones angling to be the 12th Doctor Who) appears to be screaming/singing in a suitably head tilty Danyl-from-X-Factor style and serenading a model-type in a dark alley (the joke writes itself!)

Is it me or is that model-type Cassie of 'Me&U' fame? Where's 'Electro Love'!?

Fancy Gaga's Lips?

Don't lie, you know you do. And now you can get them! (Sorta!)

Miss Germanotta is teaming up with cosmetics brand MAC to bring out her own lipstick, the aptly titled Viva Glam Gaga Lipstick. The stick of lip will cost approximately $14 (about 8 quid) but for those naysayers preparing their 'she's selling out' whines perfectly reasoned arguments, 100% of the profits will be going to the MAC AIDS fund when the line -also featuring the Cyndi Lauper endorsed Viva Glam Cyndi Lipstick - is unveiled in February.

Is this going to be crazy black small lips a la 'Paparazzi'? We hope!

Britney's 3 CD single a no-show in the UK

Are you a UK Britney fan? Want to pick up a copy of her latest single '3' on physical CD single? (ask your grandparents young' un's...sad social commentary that) Well unfortunately, you won't be getting it this week on its scheduled release date as apparently the shipments haven't turned up!

According to fans looking to snap up a copy of the CD, bemused staff in UK music retailer HMV said that they were expecting the CD shipment to arrive to their stores for sale today but it never arrived! The song has yet to arrive on UK iTunes yet either, and as the video has yet to premiere on UK TV, we aren't expecting the song to be available any time soon! The staff however have said that if they receive the shipment it will go on sale next week or the week following.

Someone needs to get that video on the TV fast! The song is currently sitting on the B-List on Radio 1 (this is a good thing)

New Gaga! 'Filthy Pop' leaks

The GaGa train is heading full speed towards the 'Fame Monster' re-release later this month, but a track not destined for the album leaked onto the interwebs recently, entitled 'Filthy Pop'

The song is an interesting little ditty, quite 80's in a way and easily beats some of the original The Fame tracks in my opinion! Check it out below, its tagged for the moment but I will seek out an untagged version if I can!

Kanye Plots Album No#5

'Plots' makes this seem like a great evil to be unleashed onto the world, maybe this is appropriate given the bad press Mr. West has been receiving in recent months. Numerous 'insider artists' are coming out of the musical woodwork (?) to drop a few hints about what to expect from the follow-up to 2008's quite-good-but-not-that-brilliant-really '808's and Heartbreaks'

Constantly up-and-coming artist/group-whose-other-members-are-kept-locked-in-the-basement Mr.Hudson revealed that Kanye will be returning to rapping following the autotuned singing overload that '808's offered us -the joy!

Fans of Kanye's voice (besides the man himself) will be also pleased to know that West has been '" taking a bit of time away from the limelight' but 'has all these ideas he has for songs" says somebody called A-Trak who has reprtedly colloborated with Kanye.

I bought and enjoyed about two thirds of '808's however it didn't have that longevity it needed to be a classic album. Could this be good? He could certainly do with some good press right about now...

Wowza!

And here, courtesy of Britney fansite WorldofBritney, is the first look at the BritBrit's photoshoot with Elle magazine's December issue! Britney's done far too little photo-shoots during this campaign, it almost seems strange to see photos of her that aren't from that Mark Liddell shoot which has been used for practically everything except the album artwork!

She looks amazing, I'd like to think Photoshop didn't have TOO much of a hand in it but either way it's still a stunning image of her!

The album (inventively titled Shock Value 2) will be released next month and will be lead by the track 'Morning After Dark' featuring French singer SoShy AND Nelly Furtado, who was added in this week to help bolster its performance on American radio! Someone's been taking style tips from Justin eh Mr. Timbaland?

Oh please...

Media regulator and personal therapist to the ever whining nation Ofcom have reportedly received a number of complaints following Cheryl Cole and Whitney Housten's performances on Sunday's X Factor results show.

Apparently, 32 people (shit! do some damage control Simon -hah!) put the effort in and picked up the dog and bone (phone, people, that'll be a phone - Cockney rhyming slang guv'ner!) to complain that the pairs performance's (which were billed as live) were in fact mimed. Or shit(which they were not)

Further complaints even cited Whitney's admittedly odd behaviour during the mini post-performance interview as a source of distress (cue reaction shots of people fainting)

Seriously people... just bitch on a forum like the rest of us if you're that greived!

R.I.P to Lady Gaga's video dog

:(

Sad stuff! One of the things that became a staple of Lady GaGa's often brilliantly erratic music videos was the inclusion of two Great Dane's who made their 'acting debut' in the 'Poker Face' video and subsequently went on to star in both the 'LoveGame' and 'Paparazzi' promos. However anyone hoping for them both to turn up in the video for upcoming single 'Bad Romance' are going to be unfortunately dissapointed as one of the poor dogs was found dead earlier this month!

The five year old Great Dane Rumpus (right in the photo apparently)was discovered after a hike in Los Angeles with his owner Suzzane Kelleher-Duckett who said he had been in 'perfect health' and that there were 'no signs of injury' An autopsy has been performed and results are expected soon!

Rumpus' mother Lava will still appear in the Bad Romance video clip

Sad times. Make a statement GaGa!

A Few Details of Britney's '3' video shoot

Whilst we're all sat twiddling our thumbs waiting for the promo for Britney's number one single '3', stylist GK Reid who worked on the shoot revealed a few little details about Britney's behaviour on set. But don't worry ya'll it's all good! No picking up dog turd with designer dresses!

Of Britney on the set he said: 'She exhibited amazing energy and was in great shape - her body looked better than it has in years - she munched on sushi instead of junk food.'

And apparently it was a blue moon that night! 'She even sang live with the words. She worked really hard and was really sweet to all the dancers.'

We want this video!

Rihanna's 'Russian Roulette' (that's alliteration that is)

In short, it's a little dissapointing.

The song ,'Russian Roulette', is a slow, haunting ballad, the opposite to what most were expecting (a clubtastic poptastic dancetastic tastictastic tasticfest) and is decent enough Rihanna material but it just doesn't feel like 'lead single from important follow-up album' material to us.

The song is lyrically everything you'd expect from a song with such a title ('pull the trigger 'and 'take the gun' being two notable examples) but sonically is very different, bringing together funny little pained Rihanna breathy sounds, gunshots and revolver wheel sound effects as well as a head bopping rock drumloop.

Props to Princess RiRi for serving us something different, but we can't shake the slight feeling of mild dissapointment. We think it's a grower. Check it out yourself, what do you think?

So...when's the 3 music video out?

*twiddles thumbs*

Okay, it's no secret that '3' has performed very nicely for Britney Jean in the past week, garnering her a third shiny number one. However, as the song has so far performed excellently on just word of mouth, radio play and a slightly dodgy single cover, it's high time that the 'B team' break out the big guns in the form of the music video!

A lot of fans thought that today was the date of the premiere due to a press release which has reportedly been confirmed as a fake, leading to ever chirpy Britney informant 'Brittanica' posting the following...

'LOL @ fans telling me to 'WAKE UP BITCH!' I'm up. :) The '3' video premiere date has not been announced, FYI! xx'

Kay 'Tannica but hurry up! The song needs promo to keep it at the top and we all know this is all we're getting!

///A very good song by the Tisdizzle...///

Below is a little song I'm very much loving at the moment, Ashley Tisdale's 'Hot Mess' taken from her current album 'Guilty Pleasure' which I inadvertently stumbled across thinking it was her new single (Which is actually 'Crank It Up' FYI)

The track is about the current trend of car crash celebrity and 2007 style Britney tabloid shenanigans (PLEASE never let me use that word again!) and Ashley scrutinizes how *insert female celebrity here* is 'parked in the driveway, parked sideways','waking up in her bra and her makeup' and generally acting a little bit like a Hot Mess funnily enough. MAKE IT A SINGLE MR RECORD COMPANY MAN!

Listen to the track! And check the sidebar on the proper YouTube link if you REALLY love it ;)

And then there was this...

A lot had been made about Whitney Houstens first performance on UK shores in ten years when she was scheduled to drop in to the X Factor studios to perform her current Alicia Keys penned track 'Million Dollar Bill', however Whitters came off a little oddly both throughout the performance and the subsequent mini interview with Dermot afterwards.



Whilst Whitney certainly doesn't deserve the 'oh she's back on crack' comments that have begun to surface following this performance, we have to admit that in between her dress starting to fall off, then carrying it around with her for three quarters of the song and her constant reliance on her rather large posse of background singers, Whitney came off slightly less than a million dollars. 55p and a Toffee crisp perhaps - I jest! She can still hit some of those big notes for sure and she looked gorgeous!

Cheryl fight fight fight fights off the hataz

It was undeniable that this time last week Cheryl Cole was shitting herself about the debut performance of her first solo song 'Fight For This Love' on the very stage that she would be watching contestants and giving her opinion about their vocals. However, right now we hope she's giving herself a nice big pat on the back (she'll have to be careful mind wearing that spiky military outfit)

Defying many moaning critics who were predictably predicting a hypocritical three minute mime-a-thon from the X Factor judge, Cheryl absolutely ROCKED the X Factor studio this evening (or to be more precise, when ever it was that they recorded the performance - it was filmed hours before it was shown!)

Wearing her customised red military jacket and accompanying pilot style hat and backed by a mahoosive crowd of backing dancers, I'd say Cheryl proved all the 'hataz' wrong in this case. Well played Ms. Cole, enjoy your millenia long stint at number one!

Check out her performance!

Snippet of Britney's 3 remix b-side!

The first official remix to have been confirmed for Britney's current number 1 hit '3' (these numbers are going to catch me out one day!) is the 'Mike Rizzo Groove Police Remix' *ahem*

It will be featured as the b-side to '3' on the deluxe box set version of Britney's Singles Collection and will therefore be included on both the digital and physical singles when they are eventually released later in the month!

And here is a clip of what you can expect from the remix courtesy of Mike Rizzo's website! Sounds pretty hot! This surely must be a hard track to remix!

Britney's '3' scaling the Mediabase chart!

Britney's new single '3' -currently sitting comfortably on top of the US Billboard chart having scored her her third number one- is showing no signs of slowing down on both radio and iTunes in the USA!

The track has leapt from the mid twenties to being at number 17 on US radio spin tracking chart Mediabase in the past few days following the song hitting number 1 and the song is maintaining it's position at the pinnacle of the iTunes overall Top Songs chart.

The song is said to currently be only 60 spins away from skipping straight to the 13 position so with the song steadily rising on the radio -which factors into a songs overall chart position on American charts- and Britney still managing to fend off competition from acts like Miley Cyrus, not to mention next weeks (hopeful) video release, could B see herself in command of the Billboard Hot 100 for a second week!?

We hope so!

Madonna hates hearing 'Like A Virgin' apparently *fanbase implodes*

Now Madonna's been in the game longer than most pop artists still big (well not in the US) today and apparently 30 odd years of hearing the same songs is starting to bug her!

She has made her distaste for some of her songs clear in her recent 'Rolling Stone' interview where she referred to some of her classic hits such as 'Cherish' and even modern fan favourites like 2005's 'Sorry' as 'retarded' but according to recent reports it's one of her best known tracks 'Like a Virgin' that she is really tired of hearing! Of her relationship with the song she has allegedly said:

'Not to toot my own horn but they always play my old stuff when I'm in a shop or wherever. They are usually songs I am really sick of though, and I have to say, 'Oh, please turn this off'.For some reason people think that when you go to a restaurant or you are going shopping that you want to hear one of your own songs. It's usually 'Like A Virgin' - and that is the one I don't want to hear.'

Fair enough, having one song following you around for so long must be a bit irritating but MORE TO THE POINT can anyone picture Madonna saying the words 'toot my own horn'!? Grain of salt people, massive grain of salt.

But if it is true, don't forget your roots Madge! They're the songs that got you where you are today!

Don't Call My Name, Don't Call My name...Lady Gaga

A week or two a go a snippet of an unknown Lady Gaga song titled 'Don't Call My Name' was leaked out into the blogosphere which has now confirmed to be a track called 'Alejandro' which has leaked in full from the upcoming 'The Fame Monster' re-release of her debut album.

The track is a move away from the cheap and slightly samely production of some of the original 'The Fame's tracks (I'm looking at you 'Money Honey', you too 'I Like It Rough') and blends in some crunchy Eastern European sounding synths and takes a VERY welcome break from the incessent lyrical styling of the original album (Usually akin to 'I LOVE MONEY I LOVE FAME BOYS BOYS BOYS DISCO STICK') to tell the tale of a relationship gone sour.

This track is exactly the progression I wanted Gagz to move towards, more serious yet still keeping the fun quirky styling that she has lended herself so well too. This Lady keeps getting better (speaking of, what's Christina up to?)

Check out the awsomeness below!

Sugababes 4.0 = Officially Quite Good

Now, we're more than aware that this isn't the most popular of opinions but we have to say we are loving the Sugababes new track 'About A Girl' and it's accompanying music video!

It's been a little under a month since last remaining original band member Keisha Buchanan was unceremoniously booted out of the band due to mysterious inter-band drama and replaced in a manner that seems to have comprised of this years UK Eurovision entry and fledgling popstar Jade Ewen being poached from her home (and record label!), bunged into a white van, and flown to America to shoot the video for the 'About A Girl', the second release from the band's upcoming seventh studio album 'Sweet Seven' [/dramatisation]

Despite the seemingly chaotic timing for the group shake-up and backlash following Keisha's booting, you have to give the 'Babez -and Jade in particular- major props for effortlessly pulling off (minus a few Jade/Amelle chorus mouthing continuity errors) such a slick and stylish video.

Because the record label are just wanting to piss me right off, embedding has been disabled by request on all of the videos so clickity click the link below to see Heidi, Amelle and Jade (and Jade's legs!) in action!

Leona, who was attacked (punched or slapped is what's going around) whilst signing copies of her new autobiography 'Dreams' in UK book retailer Waterstones yesterday by a man currently in custody and known as Peter, is said to be distraught and recovering from the incident which has been said to have left her 'understandibly shaken'.

Susan has; '" been pretty stressed out by the whole worldwide fame thing and needed something to get her head straight, She was taken to a boxing gym and loved it.

Britney Roundup!

Geez you wait a week for any Britney related news to slip through Jive's massive cracks *ahem* and then it all comes at once, while your sleeping at that!

OKAY so first things first...

Britney is OFFICIALLY number one on the US Billboard chart this week with '3'. As previously reported here, the track sold over 255,000 copies of the song in the US this week, giving BritBrit her third number one in the US! About time she got some too, considering her only others were '...Hit Me Baby' and 'Womanizer'!

Britney celebrated with the following tweets:

I want to thank my fans for making ‘3’ the # 1 song on the Billboard Hot 100. I am truly blessed with the greatest fans in the world.'

and...

I am so happy y’all love it because I do this all for you. I can’t wait till you see the video! -Britney

Sweet!

Secondly, the standard edition of the singles collection has been bumped up two weeks in the release schedule in the US and will be released on November 10th to avoid a crushing from the Adam Lambert, Susan Boyle, Rihanna and the 1001 other acts who seem to be releasing an album on November 24th!

Oh and thirdly...

Jive released these shots of the upcoming 3 music video, revealing a simplistic black and white styling with sexy outfits a la Ciara's 'Love.Sex.Magic' (same director) and even ANOTHER plug for Britney's perfume line (spot it in the last photo?) Looking good B!

Leona Lewis gets slapped...or is it punched?...or maybe both!?

Yesterday, at a Waterstones book signing for her new autobiography 'Dreams', Leona Lewis got 'Happy' (sorry!) slapped by a random 'fan' (or as some tabloids would have you beleive, got viciously punched in the head by a 'thug' and rushed for emergancy work at Harley Street)

Leona's spokesman has claimed that the X Factor 2007 champion had been signing autographed copies of her book for around 90 minutes when 'a guy came up and punched her to the side of the head'

So punched then?

An onlooker described the scene...well in the words of her brother: 'My brother saw the whole incident. He [the attacker] walked up there with the book, she signed it and, as she looked up, he just punched her.'

Right, punched then.

Leona was then said to have 'run out with her hand over her eye' as the attacker was 'jumped on' by security as they tried 'to pull him out' of the store . Disturbingly, the attacker was said to have been 'just laughing, he thought it was funny.'



Above is a amateur footage taken of the aftermath, Leona being shuffled out by security as other members pounce on the twattish attacker.

Of ALL the people in the world this could've happened to, who would've thought Leona would be a target for anyone!? Poor girl, we hope this hasn't shaken her up TOO badly, we all know she isn't always that high in the confidence stakes as it is!

Leona's album 'Echo' will be released next month.

Britney's '3' heading for number one?

According to a lot of excited Britney fans, Spears' latest single '3' -taken from the upcoming 'Singles Collection'- is heading for number one in the USA based on recently released data!

This weeks US 'Billboard Hot Digital Songs' chart has been unveiled today, revealing that Britney sold a total of *drumroll* 254,640 copies of '3' this week! Her nearest competition is Miley Cyrus' 'Party In The USA' which sold 163276 and claimed the number two spot on the Hot Digital Tracks chart! Heres the Top 10 data in the full statfans:

BILLBOARD HOT DIGITAL SONGS - TOP 10

-- 1 SPEARS*BRITNEY 3 (254640)
2 CYRUS*MILEY PARTY IN THE U.S.A. (163276)

3 DERULO*JASON WHATCHA SAY (152050)

4 OWL CITY FIREFLIES (138428)

9 BLACK EYED PEAS I GOTTA FEELING (106027)

10 IYAZ REPLAY (105564)

According to the fans, this means Britney will easily score her THIRD Billboard number one of her career with the track. How appropriate!

If she DOES hit numero uno, this will be an amazing feat as it's going on the back of absolutely NO promo. Not even a video -yet! Nicely done Ms. Spears!

Britney's Singles Collection CD/DVD cover released!

The cover art for the CD/DVD version of the upcoming Britney Spears Singles Collection has been released and it looks...exactly like the CD version but with a distinctly different colour scheme...

(okay well it's purple instead of black)

In the overall Jive/Britney art scheme scale it doesn't rank as a full 'Blackout' turdfest but it's certainly no 'Britney'!

The CD will gather Britney's greatest hits of the past ten years on one disc, from '...Baby One More Time' to 'Oops...' to 'Gimme More' to 'Radar' (good news for anyone who doesn't already own this hard to obtain track - I jest!) and includes a selection of 15 of her videos!

Beyone re-releases 'I Am Sasha Fierce' with new cover art + bonus track!

YES PLEASE!

Now, although a 'platinum edition' re-release of Beyawnsay's third studio album 'I Am...Sasha Fierce' has been released/scheduled for release, this edition -so far- has only been available for Australian fans. So to give her non-Aussie fans the re-release treatment, she is putting out a DIFFERENT version of the CD.

The album contains a full-color photograph of the previously only black and white original cover and will come with only one bonus track, the already leaked 'Poison' Why not just release the platinum edition here!?

The album will reportedly be released on November 10th, here's the tracklisting:
