Ashley Tisdale's first song that leaked months ago before the new album was on cards even officially is "I'm Back". The first demo version sounded like a quick-tempo, catchy reject from "Headstrong" with new attitude but it was for the next album. The song was now placed to Deluxe Version of her new album "Guilty Pleasure" as a new version. Some say the early version was better, I think they are both fantastic and the new one kicks off with new edge. Listen!
Now during these crazy rumours is good to remember why the girls will be so missed if they somehow split up -Their music is just so fantastic. "Magic", singleworthy album track of "Doll Domination" is produced by Timbaland and written by Nicole herself to their second album. Early demo version performed by Nicole has leaked so we decided to through it to the bunch, it's pretty interesting and bit diffirent actually. Girls, whatever happens -hold on to each other. What I meant with this and the earlier statement was that Nicole failed to succeed with her solo career (She did, promotion wasn't to blaim, she did whole lots of promo) and fans want to see the girls together, not apart. No matter who has more talent than other. Enjoy!Labels: Ashley Tisdale, Pussycat Dolls

After the post about Pussycat's rumoured disbanding, Dailymail even posted another article about Ashley Roberts confirming this to group of fans and saying how she's sorry. Ashley cut the wings of the rumour short just couple of minutes ago on twitter, where she wrote this: "Dont believe everything you hear! Life is good and Im happy. Lots of love..off to do the show. xo."
Just few seconds away, she deleted the message and wrote a new one saying how she is making another vlog on youtube. So, we're gonna have to wait for her video then. Hopefully the video is about clearing up the rumours around the girls. There is lots of sources out there, inside the label hinting that the plans are to disband after the oblications are overwith.
Nelly Furtado and her new spanish video for "Manos Al Aire". Nelly really got my interest back with this song and cutest video. "Manos Al Aire" is like a mixture of "Loose" and "Folklore" soundwise and it's pretty midtempo treat. Nelly's voice is the main focus on it and the lyrics and the video really gives a nice backing to the song. After the brilliant "Loose", hopefully she'll release similar english album in future.
Next up is No Angels, German girlgroup that definately have been around for ages but yet are releasing fine Pop-songs. Their new treat is called "One Life" and it's like a german version of Danity Kane and the song definately has the similar vibe. "One Life" is fantastic and catchy Pop-song but I think is has lots to digest, because it sounds overproduced in a way. But overproduced or not, it's still pretty fine song for them to comeback to German charts.

Few sources claim exclusively to us that Pussycat Dolls are about to be disbanded after their tour is over but they are keeping it "hush hush" before the official announcement. The rumours about it have been going on and off every once in awhile, but this time it's claimed to be true. This seems to be where they are heading to after girls have started to open up about their "creative diffirences" with the label and Nicole. How the girls are not exactly happy with what's going on with Nicole right now, and of course they aren't. The diffirence between this era and "PCD" era is huge and the label seems to be pushing the girls apart as quickly as they were formed. Pretty much all of the girls have confirmed their upcoming solo projects, but this is still wrong decision. Nicole is nothing without the other girls.
Also, there is rumours about girls finnishing their career up with "Greatest Hits" and whole another story about girls opening for Black Eyed Peas upcoming tour that starts in September.
We pray this is false, but some of these things claimed do stand behind facts.
Shakira and her new video for "She Wolf". And ladies and gents, this video will be a hit. Or more like a reason this SONG will be a hit. Overall, the budget doesn't meet the talent of Shakira and her smoothest dancemoves and sex-factor but she sure will get some good airtime on TV with this clip. She looks absolutely stunning and her moves are so smooth, loving her dancing. But at times, things get a little crazy and she ends up looking bit dumb at the cage, leaving me burst to laughing out loud in the middle. Apart from the inexpensive clip and the horrible comeback-song itself, Shakira is a star and is reminding us how she got noticed the first time around. That long curly blonde hair and those hips, her hips don't lie.
All the buzz around the song will be starting again after this video. Her artworks, the new sexier image and pre-promotion, a great example of what labels COULD do for a single if they just would bother.

Ummm. New Sugababes video for "Get Sexy". The video does have a freaky edge innit, right? It's like "Red Dress" meets "Denial". It's definately sexy, or at least revealing but not in the way you'd expect. I was personally waiting for hot club video with sleak moves and something Rihanna-ish, but they kept the video very simple and it's very British. It could be good for the fans who thought they've sold their souls to chart in US. "Get Sexy" is as a song pretty brainless club-banger that splits the fans to half and the reactions after the song was premiered were pretty strong, but well split. After about billion plays, we can confirm that the song does it's trick and it's catchy as hell, but nowhere near the high Sugastandards. But as Keisha has said, their album will be pretty diffirent. Good video but well unexpected and more edgy than expected.
What do you think?

Me and a friend of mine attented on a Lady Gaga gig on 28th of July. As seen, we wanted our outfits to represent something from Gaga, yet to be ourselves and the goal was to have great time and possibly meet Lady herself after the show. Sadly, Gaga was no-show when she left the building soon after the show and only met two fans, a girl who fainted in a gig and her friend. Yet the show itself wasn't dissapointment and you can't say Gaga wouldn't love her fans. The cutest part of the day was when people, who were in the queue early morning (some even night before) got a little something from Gaga in the afternoon, when Pizza delivery came to the door. Pizza guy had 20 Pizza's delivered outside the venue and the guy gave the pizza's to the fans and said that Lady Gaga ordered some pizza for us. Wow, you don't see that everyday! I've never heard anything like this. Wow.
Waiting before the gig felt like forever and when the door finally opened, the whole system fell apart. It was chaotic. They did check the tickets and stuff, but barely looked at what we held in our bags and the doors to the hall itself opened late and people literally pushed their ways in, to rush in to the seats and near the stage and even the staff were crushed in between the fans. And they didn't check the tickets on those doors so pretty much anyone could've gone from the back seats to the floor area, without anyone checking up on you. I've never been anywhere where the well-organized consert just ends up being non-organized mess. And the air conditioning was non existent, so we were sweating like pigs. So pretty much the venue sucked. It was sold-out in fifteen minutes and the venue hold up to 1,400 fans.
The show itself was opened by Hyper Crush, that wasn't really my cup of tea. They had lots of energy, their songs were electric and uplifting but it just didn't appeal to me. Luckily after Gaga started the show late, her show on stage blew us away.
The show was started by "Paparazzi" after the intro and it totally rocked! The mask, straight from "Poker Face" video and the beautiful disco-outfit as well as flawless, strong vocals just kicked the show up incredibly. The crowd went mad over her. She performed her biggest hits and best songs from the album, but the setlist didn't include "Starstruck" which is fanfavourite, even in here. She performed songs like "Beautiful, Dirty, Rich", "Money, Honey", "Boys Boys Boys" and "Fame" that all were well performed vocally and she really gave her best energy on stage. Being on stage just a little over an hour didn't feel that short, because the show was packed with songs and energy. And she was fantastic with the audience.
Gaga was pretty much honest while being on stage. She first asked the people to stand up everywhere (especially in the seats that you were just suppose to be sitting), and when she only saw hands up, but fans still sitting on their seats, she shouted "If you don't fucking start standing on your seats, I'll stop the singing". In two seconds, they were all up. She also told funny stories on stage, sang a song about Finland being marvellous and said how the people were so beautiful in here and how she loves Finland. She said she just kept partying and drinking and partying because the sun wouldn't go down, talking about Finland's mid-summer. Her communication with the fans was very new to me, personally never seeing more than few lines to be talked and sometimes even in Finnish. She didn't speak Finnish but she did give us lots of talking, interaction with the audience and made us feel like "stars" as she said she needs to do now that she is now star herself. And that is what she achieved. As well as the endless love from the audience.
She performed of course her single releases too. "LoveGame" was well achieved, as it's another huge hit for her in Finland. It's been huge radio/club hit and been in our Singles chart for 11 weeks. She had lots of energy during the performance and her vocals were fantastic. "Eh Eh", a single released in few countries recieved good reaction from the fans who knew the lyrics too. Her costumes represented totally who she is and it looks like they've been slightly altered for this show from how they looked weeks or even days ago. "Just Dance" was again well recieved by the crowd who were jumping like crazy during the song. It's not her best song, but it's definately a huge hit and of course her debut single.
Her famous bubble-dress looked like someone had bursted most of the bubbles around her and she wore the "lavender" wig, that she twitted about few days ago. The bubble piano and the "Future Love" set was good one to see, but this is when the show almost stopped while she was performing the beautiful "Brown Eyes" and started the communication with the audience. She was playing the piano-version of "Poker Face" and time to time stopping it just to say few words to audience. From my point of view, only that part from the show looked like unplanned and it could've had even one song more. But it was nice to get fans laughing while you're joking on stage. Only few artists actually do that. She knows how to get her fans to love her more.
She finnished the piano version and started the extented normal version of "Poker Face" and it just blew the building. This is a H-U-G-E hit in Finland and every fan loves the song. It spend total of 12 weeks at #1 in Finnish Singles Chart and overall 33 weeks on Top 20. Everyone was jumping and she really pushed her crazy energy to this number, yet vocally being brilliant. She is true talent!
She finnished "Poker Face" and stayed on stage while the crowd screamed her like crazy, while she blew kisses to fans and made a bow before leaving the stage. She definately blew me away and whatever I was expecting, she was so much more. The only big flaw was the short setlist, but she'll soon have more songs to perform, because you could just tell that she is here to stay. After making sure she actually left the building, I left with a T-shirt (expensive tour shirt, thought 30 € was pretty expensive from Gaga) and smile on my face. She did minimalistic show, but she filled the stage and was a star with talent. Don't underestimate this Lady.
And if she performs near you, go and see her!

-Backstreet Boys are ready to release their next album "This is Us" on 6th of October. “We racked our brains to rediscover who we were. We had to do something different but still familiar. RedOne really wanted to be on our Black & Blue album – he said he studied us, and he’s written songs tailor-made for Backstreet Boys.” Nick Carter explains. The 11 songs includes songs like "Bigger," "Bye Bye Love" and "She's A Dream." Backstreet Boys plan on spending the second half of 2009 and all of 2010 on the road. A European tour has already been announced and a full North American headlining tour will be announced shortly. Tour dates can be found on the group's official website www.backstreetboys.com.
-The Saturdays have now finnished their album too! The album is set to be released later this year with single coming up soon. They move on rather quickly after "Work" didn't perform as well as expected, although selling well over 73, 000 copies to date. Their next single "Forever is Over" is going to be premiered next month, with video being finnished as we speak.
-A Producer that has worked with Britney Spears on her upcoming "Singles Collection" has revealed a name of one new track to be released on the compilation. The song is called "Dirty Girl" and it's set to be a step back to raunchier image than her polished "Circus" and her latest video "Radar" represented. It's one of the few new tracks to be released, but more details will be published later on.
Ashley Tisdale Performs "Tell Me Lies", one of our favourites songs on AOL Sessions, along with songs like "Masquerade", "Hot Mess", "Hair" and just shined on a ballad "What If". Ashley is said to be choosing her next single from that bunch. Her new album "Guilty Pleasure" has really changed her musical style, or more like shows the real Ashley with new style and improved vocals. It's really fantastic Pop-record, you gotta buy it if you still havent.
Here she performs "It's Alright, it's Ok" that has became pretty huge radio-hit in here Finland too. She has improved a lot vocally. Good job Ash!
Kelly Clarkson seems to be in trouble for unwanted controvercy from her new single "Already Gone". All in all, we hear the similarities but it's a whole another song from Beyonce's "Halo". Both beautiful, Kelly's even more heartbreaking. Unfortunately sources claim Kelly is in deep trouble after running her mouth about it.
"Sources reveal exclusively to PerezHilton.com that Kelly Clarkson's record label is super pissed about the original American Idol shooting off her mouth about the drama surrounding her latest single, Already Gone. And she might pay for it big time!
The story we're hearing is similar to Kelly's - she did, in fact, request that the song not be released as a single and the label denied this request. However, it was more a of a "do or die" situation for Clarkson, as the label actually told her that if they weren't allowed to release the single, they would be "done" with the album. No more money for videos, no more singles, no more promotion. They compromised, releasing the single but allowing Kelly only to perform it acoustically (and re-arranged) in concert and on TV - her desire.
Now, because she opened her trap, the label is returning to their original threat and will attempt to kill the album, meaning " no more promo, no more singles, no more money into it." This might signal the end of Kelly Clarkson's relationship with Clive Davis, adding a more "cooperative " (aka naive) pop/rocker to the roster, like current Idol season finalist Alison Irehita.
Poor Kelly. Sucks to be her! Have another donut, sweetie!"
And as a side note to Perez, you're the very last person to talk about donuts, honey. Until your size is smaller than Clarkson's and you actually have a talent, keep your mouth shut.
-The Saturdays won't let the buzz die after "Work" pretty much bombed after four Top 10 singles. Their next single from the next album, "Forever Is Over" is set to be filmed tomorrow. Mollie (Blonde one) confirmed on twitter that the date is set for the shoot. Trudy Bellinger is directing the video for the girls and has previously done some fantastic videos for Rachel Stevens (I said never again but here we are) and Girls Aloud (The Show, Sexy! No No No, The Loving Kind). Sats haven't set a date for their upcoming second album.
-Sources claim that Britney Spears is set to record another album for next year after the tour. She feels inspired while being on tour, as she hit the studio in scandinavian tour dates and recorded few new tracks for upcoming Singles Collection. Now the star who planned to take a long break after the tour, could've changed her mind since her 7th studio album is scheduled for Spring 2010. We keep you posted.
-Warner and Madonna's camp are very happy with the positive buzz surrounding "Celebration", the collection and single and planning the release of the second single off the GH. "Revolver", featuring rapper Lil Wayne, the second new song contained in the new compilation, will be released as the second single sometime in September 2009.
-Official UK premiere of Lady Gaga's "LoveGame" music video is on August 13th. This means that the next UK Single, 4th single release from the album is "LoveGame". "Paparazzi", her third UK single is doing rather well, peaking inside Top 5 in UK after two previous singles were both #1 singles in UK alone.
Speaking of Gaga, the gig I attented today was CRAZY! She's definately here to stay! The review of the gig with pictures will be published within two days.
Britney Spears and her new animated video for "Kill the Lights". No, this is not the new single, it's "Radar". No, this is not FANMADE but a fan was behind the video idea. And No, this isn't full song. The clip itself was much enjoyable for me than the most boring video of the decade, "Break The ice" that totally ruined the brilliant song! It's not her worst, but not her best. Luckily, it's only for the fans and will not be seen on TV. Great little special for us, but we do prefer to see the real Britney. At least she lipsyncs, unlike this animated version.
Discuss.
Tomorrow, VipMedia Goes Live.... to see Lady Gaga! Her first ever tour has luckily date booked in Helsinki, so we had a chance to see her live. Once again, with best tickets possible we are heading to a gig with a review and pictures to be posted later on. Hopefully there is a possibility to meet her in person! Anyway, check back later on when we update the review within two days.
So excited!
Girls Cant Catch, new UK girlgroup Performing their debut single "Keep Your Head Up". Despite one of the girls having her microphone volume pretty low and another too high, it was vocally pretty good! These girls can at least hit the notes. The performance was well reharsed, and even though they need a new stylist - they looked pretty awesome. Look out for the girls first single, because it is out on the 3rd of August.
What a fantastic tune! If this group won't end up being big like The Saturdays or Girls Aloud, they at least had brilliant first single. Loving it!
Kelly Clarkson and her new video for "Already Gone". Despite the controvercy, I think this song is just masterpiece and just perfection as it's own rights. It's also deeply personal song for me, heartbreaking and I do think it could do pretty well comercially too. The video is simple but just stunning, it wasn't made to outshadow the song or distract the attention from the song itself, but to fulfill the beautiful story with great shots. Kelly looks great in it, overall great job.
There was also some weird drama behind the scenes, when the director Joseph Kahn made some weird comments on twitter about not getting his way on this video, sounding pretty bitter about something. I wonder what that was about? Maybe about the crappy ending, because it ends too suddenly. That was the only huge negative issue from the beautiful video.
The Saturdays are ready to put their next album together. Girls have been recording new songs to their second album while being on tour, and they've officially chosen the lead single. Their first single is called "Forever is Over" and the dramatic single will be premiered possibly already next month. Their upcoming album, yet untitled will include songs like "Wordshaker" (heard on their tour), "One Shot" and "Denial", which is not Sugababes-cover. We'll be posting more information when more details will be announced.
Linda Teodosiu, German pop-princess releases her follow-up single for "Love Sux" called "Reprogram my Heart". As a song, it's definately quality Pop-music with great chorus, so cathcy! The video looks fantastic too, it's like a classic, fun american teen-music video with nice effects, colours and dancing. If only she would've danced along with simple routine, this video could've been so much better. Good start for her career! This single will be released in Germany on 14th of August.
Pretty interesting! Kaya Jones, the ex-Pussycat Dolls member is out to release her first solo single. Yes, you heard me. She was a member when "Sway" was released, her vocals are here and there in "PCD" and she performed with the Dolls on Fashion Rocks on "Tainted Love". Anyway, Kaya is definately eyeing to snap her ex-bandmember Nicole Scherzinger on this one, just listen to the lyrics and see her acting like Nicole on scenes. Pretty funny though and how Bitchy! But this song is also catchy, pretty okay song actually. This song is all in all bit of a mixture of today's Pop. Beats are hot and simple, bridge before the chorus reminds me of Britney's "Circus" bridge. Just listen to it, listen to the lyrics and tell us what you think!

There has been a slight controvercy going on with Kelly Clarkson's new single "Already Gone". Kelly Clarkson collaborated with Ryan Tedder on the track, a dramatic ballad driven by a pounding heartbeat, twinkly piano and swooping strings. Tedder used suspiciously similar elements when he produced another mega-hit, Beyonce's "Halo".
Kelly explains this all in very honest way on a interview. "Ryan and I met each other at the record label, before he was working with anyone else," Clarkson begins, gritting her teeth. "He's from Oklahoma, I'm from Texas; we got along really well and had some of the same influences. We wrote about six songs together, four or five of them made the album. It was all fine and dandy. I'd never heard of a song called "Halo". Her album came out when my album was already being printed. No-one's gonna be sittin' at home, thinking 'Man, Ryan Tedder gave Beyonce and Kelly the same track to write to.' No, they're just gonna be saying I ripped someone off. I called Ryan and said, 'I don't understand. Why would you do that?'"
Understandably frustrated Clarkson claims she "fought" to prevent her label from releasing "Already Gone" as her third single, out of respect for Beyonce. "In the end, they're releasing it without my consent," she sighs. "It sucks, but it's one of those things I have no control over. I already made my album. At this point, the record company can do whatever they want with it. It's kind of a shitty situation, but.… You know, you learn."
Wow. Pretty shitty stuff. Although he's done this billion times before. It's like everything he's produced to everyone sounds bit similar. But "Halo" is "Halo" and "Already Gone" is "Already Gone". Both equally and diffirently stunning.
Get ready for some Booty Luv! Their brand new video "Say it" was just premiered and it looks fantastic. Hardly anything unexpected really, but very entertaining clip and both of the girls look just stunning. The Pop perfection will be finally released in UK on 31st August, so make sure you get that! "Say it" is definately one of their best songs, brilliant comeback single. The video is all about those two stunning girls just making all these guys look like fools, when they drool around them. It's just fun clip with colour and some Booty Luv.
Check it out and tell us what you think!
Rihanna has no plans to take revenge on her violent ex-boyfriend Chris Brown by penning a song about him. The Umbrella singer split from Brown earlier this year after he assaulted her during a bust-up in Los Angeles in February, leaving her battered and bruised. But Rihanna isn't planning to draw on the experience for lyrics to her new songs, according to her collaborator Ne-Yo.
He tells MTV, "I've done some stuff for Rihanna's (project). I didn't really want to go there too much, because I know that's what everybody is expecting. I don't think there isn't a person alive that doesn't know what happened and what it was. I don't feel like it needs to be glorified. I don't think that needs to be a song that's sung or written.
Apart from the album itself not being ready yet, the upcoming single is already expected to be released along with effective promotion. Simon Cowell has announced he is working on getting Rihanna to premier the single off her new album on the UK tv talent show "X-Factor" live show's which start in October.
Hopefully Rihanna will bring out something edgy and potential like "Good girl Gone Bad" was.
Sugababes are getting ready to release their next, 7th album and new single "Get Sexy" is starting to make it's impact. Keisha (in the middle) replied some of the fans on twitter as they were allowed to answer anything from the Sugababe. Funny little drama was involved when Keisha got annoyed at a question sent: "Why is your new material American Garbish when you was so fantasticly British and Different? Is it to crack America 4 $$$$". Keisha then replied the user about him being banned and said he could've asked question in more mature way. Go Keisha!
These are the most important points:
Did you take an instant liking to Amelle when she joined, or did it take a while, since you were so close to Mutya?
"I missed mut. But she wasnt happy...We did remain friends after she left but lost contact. I got on with Amelle straight away."
What's your favourite song from the new album?
"A track called "No more you", written by Neyo and About a girl!!! I have to say "Get sexy" is my fav up tempo though."
Which is the best song You've ever recorded in your opinion?Which is the song you wish you never released?
"The best: Overload, Freak like me, Push the button, Stronger, I hate Denial lol"
When will the new album be out? after get sexy or after a second single?
"second single, then the album"
Whats your favourite Britney Spears song?

According to sources, Britney Spears is in the early stages of planning a new studio album. She's been recording new music and she says she feels "inspired" at the moment. She has gone through some songs the label has collected for her and is excited to get back to work, even while on the tour. UBritney.com makes a great remark "It's always been the case for her when on tour. Remember Mona Lisa?".
Britney has been recording new songs, on her scandinavian tour stop, on Max Martin's studios in Sweden. Martin is behind such classics from Britney as "Baby One More Time", "Oops!... I Did It Again" and her latest, "If U Seek Amy". Sony Music Australia already confirmed the plans for "The Singles Collection" on fall and that will be packed with brand new songs (which she recorded in sweden) along with some new remixes. It is said to to be released in two different versions: The Standard Edition and the Multi CD Box Set. The Singles Collection is slated for an October 23rd release in Australia.
"The Circus Starring Britney Spears" Tour DVD is also said to be released at the end of the year. It's still unknown, where it will be filmed but there is already plans for the release. More details are set to be released later on.
Nicole Scherzinger's domination of the PUSSYCAT DOLLS is still causing tension within the group. The girlband's recent single "Jai Ho!" a worldwide smash hit, was billed as "Pussycat Dolls featuring Nicole Scherzinger" which reportedly riled particular members. MELODY THORNTON hit out at Nicole during a recent gig which led to rumours the band, who were a burlesque group before hitting the charts with Don't Cha in 2005, were set to split. However, despite playing down break-up fears, Doll KIMBERLEY WYATT indicated for The Sun that the band, and their management, aren't all singing from the same hymn sheet.
Kimberley said: "It's true, there has always been a lot of focus on Nicole which has been hard to deal with sometimes. This group was created with a foundation, they knew exactly what they wanted and they had Nicole as the focus. Every video and stage performance that we've done, Nicole has been our leader.
"I wasn't in videos like I wanted and wasn't seen in the way I was hoping, which has been the same for all the other girls too." Kimberley says herself and the rest of the girls - ASHLEY ROBERTS, JESSICA SUTTA and Melody - are not anticipating the attention eventually being shared out.
She added: "I don't really make any of the decisions, I'm in the group and can voice my opinions to a degree but at the end of the day it is a business and there are a lot of chefs in the kitchen that run the Pussycat Dolls".

CD will also include two new songs that were recently recorded in New York City. The first single, also titled, “Celebration,” co-produced by Madonna and Paul Oakenfold, will be released August 3rd. A video for the single, which will be included on the “Celebration” DVD was just filmed in Milan, Italy and was directed by long time Madonna collaborator Jonas Akerlund who'se worked with Madonna before on "Ray of Light also directing new videos from Lady Gaga (Paparazzi) and P!nk (Sober).
What do you think about it? The cover?
On the official site of Backstreet Boys, they've released full version of their brand new single "Straight to my Heart (Soldier Down)" and it's good! It's RedOne produced Pop-song with a little throwback in sounds and melody, it has a little mixture of 80´s and 90´s on it's sound and melody but it's pure Pop. Forget all of the power ballads, it's time for uptempo treat. If you loved Enrique Iglesias "Takin' back my Love", you gon' love this too, although they're nothing alike.

Jordin Sparks performing her fantastic single "Battlefield" on Regis and Kelly Show. Her performance was rather shorter edit of the song but she is true talent. This song never gets bored, definately her best work and our most played song by her. Her album is out NOW, so you betta get it! It's fantastic!
BoA still trying to succeed in US, with her third video. "Energetic" doesn't musically provide anything new. It's heavily electric, somewhat similar as her two previous singles and it has similar repeative "hook". Apart from the song itself being bit boring and lifeless in comparison to her two previous singles, the video itself is very pretty, she looks gorgeous in it and it's quite enjoyable all in all. BoA is full of potential but why does her singles tend to sound too similar to each other, lacking that amaizingness. It's like you expect alot, but the magic never happens.
Anyway, BoA is cool chick and for people seeing this for the first time, check out a song called "Eat You Up" and skip this.
Latest reports say Lady Gaga's next single will be "Boys Boys Boys", at least for Europe and Australia later on fall. This claim comes after Manhattan Clique claimed on there official Myspace they have remixed the song. They've done remixes previously for Britney Spears. While "Paparazzi" is rumoured to be released next in US and "Boys Boys Boys" being fantastic, catchy Pop-track, there is no sign of releasing such gems as "The Fame" and "Starstruck".
Whatever happens, Gaga is re-releasing her album soon under a title "The Fame Monster". She is currently writing new songs to it and touring in Europe.
I have few things I wanna say and correct from my accidently controvercial Britney-review that has caused alot of buzz. I do read every single message written to this site as well as emails sent and I must say I was very surprised about the reaction, but then again I could only see this from my side and not how people coming to this site for the first time or people not knowing me would react on it.
The honest truth is, Britney's gig was pretty much the best or second best gig I've ever been to. Partly because it's Britney Spears and the beautiful show itself and I am a huge fan, expecting alot from the gig and the anticipation for it was huge all along. Maybe that's why I got a little dissapointed. I still can't make up my mind about the gig, because it's still like a blurry dream that had good and bad points. Maybe because it was the first time seeing her after 10 years of being a fan or maybe it was because I was waiting to be completely blown away, but I had to face the truth and wrote about the negative stuff, because I wanted to get that out of my heart and wanted the fans to discuss about those things, I wanted to share my feelings about it. I can admit now that reading it from your point of view, there IS alot of negative stuff in it, but then again it was my first impression and my thoughts about the gig are mixture even until this day.
Sugababes are set to comeback with a bang. With their new video for new single "Get Sexy" premiering on 1st of August, their new style in music and two singles being released before the album -they are set to make a strong comeback. Not that it was long hiatus after all.
"Get Sexy" will be released officially on August 31st physically in UK and their 7th studio album, yet untitled is being released on November 23rd. The album includes songs produced by Red One (Lady Gaga, Rihanna), Stargate (Beyonce, Rihanna), Ne-Yo and Ryan Tedder (One Republic, Kelly Clarkson) and the second single is set to be released before the album is released on early November.
Britney's official site has a poll for the 5th single from "Circus", just wondered what would you choose?
- Both Rihanna and Christina Aguilera will release their albums on fall. Both female acts will premiere their new singles very soon and there is rumours of both performing on this year's VMA's. There is a lot of competition in the charts on fall when Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston both release their albums, Britney Spears is set to release either "Circus 2.0" or "Singles Collection" and Gaga is re-releasing her album "The Fame".
-This week, Britney Spears officially becomes the artist with most Mainstream Top 40 hits of any act in this decade, as "Radar" debuts on the chart at #35. "Radar" is set to be another hit from "Circus", already charting in europe too. Hopefully the lack of promotion wouldn't hurt this release too much.
-And along with Britney, Mariah Carey also makes a record. Mariah Carey's "Obsessed", debuted at #11 and it's her fortieth entry on the Hot 100, making her just the 8th woman in the chart's history to make 40 or more appearance.
- Lady Gaga has confirmed that the rumored single titled "New York" is fake. News about the re-release started over a month ago but the title of the first single turned out to be a fake. Lady Gaga was asked in a meet and greet to late last month if the rumour was true and it's 100% false. "The Fame Monster" is the title of the re-release and she just confirmed herself on twitter that she's writing the songs to it as we speak.
Lady Gaga performing in GMTV, her new single "Paparazzi". Gaga makes fantastic performance with stunning vocals but at times her playing the piano on the main instrumental wasn't good idea. She's fierce, energic and crazy at the same time and all that in this performance. Good to see "Paparazzi" doing so well. Hopefully my collection of her singles will be soon fulfilled with this single.
And we can now confirm that VipMedia Goes Live... to see Lady Gaga in Helsinki! She's performing on 28th of July and I've bought the tickets to see the whole set from the front. Hopefully she does Meet & Greet's in here too, don't know if she does those everywhere. Anyway, expect a review with pictures soon after!

It was a day before my birthday, on 16th of July when I attented to Britney's "Circus" Tour date in Helsinki. It's been ten years of being a huge fan, literally having all of her singles, albums (even Radar Promo from 2007) and waiting for the opportunity like this. In my wildest dreams, I never pictured Britney arriving to Finland and performing on a gig but neither did most people think Britney would ever tour again. After seeing the gig, I could say this is like a warm-up for another chapter of her career and another tour in few years.
It was long day behind me when the show started. I pretty much roughly used something like 150 € on her merchandise as well as my ticket for In the Zone-area, the best standing seats costing another 150 € but it was well worth it. My feet were killing me and I could barely stand after being on queue for the merch and walking across the town before the gig but standing seats are standing seats and I was expecting alot from the night. The show was started by DJ Havana Brown that slowly started to get people dancing and warming up for them before Miss Spears was due on stage, but apart from her gorgeous looks I could've skipped her part. Then after a pause the Big Apple Circus started the show with amaizing talent acts that from my opinion were awsome, but again I could've moved on to the main thing. Quickly when the show went on, I realized that these clowns and dancers were pretty much the show, or at least huge part of the show - Too big part of the show.
Another thing I noticed, the stage itself was brilliant idea but the reality of it was horrible. Britney tried to fill too big boots with the stage being in the center and her trying to fill up the stage as a solo act with the dancers. It was done previously by acts such as Backstreet Boys, but there is five singers instead of one, so it probably worked better. As a result, she pretty much drowned in to the dancers and half of the time the eyes were searching for Britney, even though she should be shining like a star and never turning invisible in the middle of the dance crew but she was sinked in, especially with her brunette hair do that was more of a hair Don't. And the dancers were also making it so hard to take pictures, as well as the star herself. She had to walk around the stage every second to be seen from every corner and every seat and it has to be hard trying to focus on the routines while you're "running" the show through. So the big minus from the stage that didn't turn out to be as amaizing and about Britney almost hiding behind her dancers.
"Circus" started the show finally and it was well re-recorded, you really thought it was live because it sounded so real. She danced around with a whip and it was pretty much a circus in the stage at that time, very good number. "Piece of Me", my favourite part was soon followed and I must say that I NEED to get the official tour version of the song, the remix is off the hook! It's so dancey and gives just the right twist to the song! Apart from the dark hair not fitting to the performance AT ALL, She pulled it off and worked her butt in that cage. "Radar", the third song was also one of my favourite numbers, it was dynamic and well reharsed and definately a type of a performance this song deserved. The song was also very well achieved by the audience and the first beats started a huge cheer from the crowd, this has to be another hit for her.
Medley of "Ooh Ooh Baby" and "Hot as Ice" was okay, especially the one mentioned first had gorgeous glittering princess outfit and Brit looked awsome, but unfortunately the number itself was bit of a filler with only half of the song being relevant with another half being just "played" on the background of a magic number. "Hot as Ice" performance was like "If U Seek Amy" part two so it almost went by unnoticed. In the boot camp sequence, "Boys" was fantastic! Another good number with lots of action and definately one of the best performance, even though the lipsyncing at that moment was bit sloppy. "If U Seek Amy" was a huge success by the crowd's action from the first seconds, it started a huge screaming and it was definately one of the best performances from the show and I still can't believe how badly it did comercially compared to "Womanizer", even though you never get used to the song -it's SO GOOD.
"Me Against the Music" turned into bollywood remix worked pretty well too, with lots of fun routines filling the stage. Before "Everytime" was the first time when Britney took a contact to the audience and asked us how did we enjoy it and introduced the ballad to be performed next. In the front row where I was, friend of mine and half of the audience were crying literally. It was beautiful performance and she could've added at least another ballad to the show, because it was very good. In the local newspapers, it was claimed that her real voice singing on the playback was mainly heard in the corridors and she wasn't much critized even though the biggest media's boycotted the gig due the strict photographing contracts. Luckily fans got to take pictures though, without any censorship.
The next sequence "Freakshow/Peepshow" was very good, possibly my favourite one. It started with the low bass beats of "Freakshow" and Britney dancing across the stage with dark outfits. It was very "Blackout" how she looked during that number. Another great number, "Get Naked" involved lots of dancing and moving around the stage and definately worked very well, better than how I imagined. Her freshly added new song, "Mannequin" was quickly started and it wasn't as boring as it looked from the videos from Paris and it was nice to know it was all Britney's idea. The outfit was changed from the yellow t-shirt to a small tank top with flowers and glitter. "Touch of My Hand" was luckily cut from the show, already in Stockholm but it could've been nice to see her hanging from the sealing with a dancer during the song but luckily "Breathe On Me", one of my favourites of all time wasn't removed and she performed it as well hanging in the air, in the middle of the huge frame.
"Do Somethin'" and "I'm a Slave 4 U" quickly followed the band intro and Britney showed up on stage performing a cool energic numbers. I would've loved to see the gold metal corset instead of the black top she wore now (Knew it was removed though), but what can you do if you're "Pussy is hanging out". It was fun to see the old routines being used on the dancebreak of "Slave". At least something old-school Spears was there. After the too-long-dancer-interlude it was time for her two huge hits "Toxic" and "Baby, One More Time". Once again, the crowd went crazy for the intro of "Toxic". The two performances weren't unfortunately nothing really uplifting or new but I wouldn't cut those out from the setlist.
It was soon the end of the show and after "Break the Ice" intro, "Womanizer" was performed. She looked smoking hot in the cop outfit and danced around the stage with a sparkle rain finnishing the show. She also was well prepared as she thanked the fans and said good night to them in Finnish along with saying "Hei Suomi, Miten Menee?" (Hello Finland, How are you Doing?) and recieving a huge cheer from the crowd. Well unexpected from Britney, but very fortunate.
Overall the show started out as a dissapointment and I felt like a bad fan, adoring her for ten years and feeling dissapointed at the show, but there WAS both negative and positive things in the show and until this day I couldn't decide if it was dissapointing show or pure fire. Because it was both. She had the smile on her face through the night and was so beautiful in person and I still can't get my head around seeing her from 10 feet away! But her stage presence was rather shy and not-fully-there than fierce, but with all that behind her and with the amount of pressure put on her I'd probably be like that too. Although I could claim that I love performing so much, that I could over-perform for the whole night better than she did (Lipsyncing). Her energy was so good at some sequences and some of them lacked energy. Some performances were also pretty dull and irrelevant, and seemed like they needed to work of few of them.
But even if the review sounds negative, it's not all that. It was all worth of that money and it was Britney Spears! She really had a great show around her, but she just weren't as big part of it as I would've expected her to be. It was more like "The Circus Tour featuring Britney Spears".
It was still like a dream and honestly these few performances just saved the show and no matter how much people critize her, she's gone through hell and made a huge comeback and done a huge tour that no-one ever though she would do anymore. This was all just to show the fans how she is coping and doing well, being healthy and pretty and wanting to do this all. To get her in the top notch she once was as a dancer, it takes time and reharsing but she is getting there. We can just imagine how much effort this tour takes from her and how much she wanted to do this. "Circus" isn't her best tour (judging from the prodcasted tour's) but it's indeed a huge show and still one of the best I've been in.
It can still take a month or few to finally get that I just saw Britney Spears.

Kelly Rowland has denied that she and former Destiny's Child bandmates Beyoncé Knowles and Michelle Williams are working on another album. The 'Work' singer encouraged fans to ignore the reports and insisted that the trio, who split in 2005, are concentrating on their solo careers.
Rowland told the New York Post's PopWrap blog: "There is no Destiny's Child album in the works. None of us have talked about an album or anything. And until we do, no-one else should worry about it. Simmer down now!"
Beyonce is right now touring, Kelly is promoting her single with David Guetta and Michelle is preparing new album and release of "Hello Heartbreak" in UK.
Hey dear viewers!
I'm sure you'll understand the lack of posts for the past two days, it's been two diffirent interesting days. Today is my birthday, I turned 22 and yesterday night I was in the front row of Britney's gig in Helsinki. Review with pictures will be published very soon and expect more posts to appear too! Picture above is from yesterday night, I dyed blonde "B" on one side and heart to another side to celebrate the Princess of Pop. I had such a blast!
Enjoy your day as I enjoy mine and check back to see the updates later on!

According to GimmeBritney.com, Sony Music Australia have revealed some brand new information regarding Britney Spears upcoming greatest hits compilation. The 2 CD set has officially been titled "The Singles Collection" and will contain hits from her 10 year career, though many of the tracks will be from her most recent albums "Blackout" and "Circus". A DVD will also be released.
There will definitely be new tracks on the album, but most probably it will be less than the six that were previously reported. There will also be a lead single released from the project, similar to when Spears released "My Prerogative" from her first Greatest Hits album in 2004. "The Singles Collection" will be released in two different versions, the first being a standard edition, and the second a "multi CD box set".
The tentative release date for Australia is October 23rd so it can coincide with the Australian leg of the singers sold out Circus tour.
Interesting. Are they releasing this instead of "Circus 2.0"?
Britney's gig is TONIGHT in Finland. We will be hitting you up with fresh review with pictures before weekend!

Girls Aloud have taken to their website to reassure their fans about their future. The band, who are currently taking an extended break after completing their recent 'Out Of Control' tour, insisted that they will return with a new album next year.
"We've decided to write this note together, because we want to set the record straight about what is happening in our world. Over the next 12 months we are going to be involved in a lot of different things - music, TV, fashion and more. Sometimes it may be a solo project - sometimes just a couple of us and sometimes all five of us together."
We are definitely NOT splitting up. In fact we have all signed a new contract with Fascination/Polydor Records guaranteeing that we will release at least three Girls Aloud albums - minimum. We will definitely all be going into the studio next year to record - and there will definitely be a new GA album in 2010."
Girls Aloud previously posted a message on their website thanking fans for supporting them on their recent sell-out tour. Girls Aloud member Cheryl Cole is said to be the first one to release solo material, with a single yet untitled to be premiered soon.

Kelly Clarkson performing "Already Gone" on Letterman. She did a little more acoustic set up from the song and it was very good performance. Her vocals were flawless, she made it look so effortless. Beautiful song, that deserves to be a huge hit and video should be out in awhile. Fantastic, Kelly!
Great video interview from Britney, sneak peak from Paris consert and behind the scenes footage from the wadrobe and stuff. They also reveal nice information about Britney's own creativity and how she did for example a routine of "Mannequin" herself. Very cool.
Countdown to Britney's gig in Finland! Only two days left!

As we reported earlier, Re-release of Britney's "Circus" is planned and new songs are being collected for her by her label. She arrived earlier yesterday to Sweden and is now in studio with Max Martin (Oops! I Did it again, If U Seek Amy) and the plan is to record at least one new song at her tourstop in sweden. She is set to perform two dates in stockholm, with first one being later today. The plan is to release 5th single from "Circus" and later on release another song from re-release. None of this is official yet, but this is a plan. "Mannequin" was chose by the label but they test the waters by having a poll of the fan's choise on Britney.com
Britney is set to finnish the tour and then take a long break before the next album, so enjoy the tour and hopefully the label won't scrap the idea of re-release, because that should be the only new thing for awhile.
Verdict: Hot!
Sugababes are ready to do their all to get back to the charts, where they feel at home. After one or two spins, we considered this as Sugafail, while most people labeled this more as Sugaboom Boom Pow. Now we can confirm after 30-something spins that this is in fact Sugabanger or Sugaboost that they needed badly after their poor attempt to re-create what Winehouse and Duffy did but with a Pop twist. So, all in all you can't say they are total sellouts now, as they tried to be super-comercial before. As the girls move comfortably somewhere between Black Eyed Peas and Pussycat Dolls with this club-hit-in-making that sounds like Rihanna-reject but has those raspy vocals from Amelle, Urban shouts from Keisha and cute poppy verse from Heidi that make it pretty recognizable as for Sugababes. While this splits opinions quite succesfully, we label this as a Hot potential hit.
Brooke Hogan -Ruff Me Up
Hot or Flop?
Verdict: Hot
Brooke Hogan has just confirmed how much she loved "Womanizer" by Britney. Enough to record one of her own. "Ruff Me Up" is up-tempo club banger with mouthful of lyrics to mime and at the end of the day, the song would've been better for Britney's voice, with all of my love to Brooke. It doesn't destroy the enjoyable track, even if it's mostly computer-generated but what today isn't? Brooke released her first album full of potential hits but never truly had that success she was aiming for and now she's hungry for more, with album "The Redemption" being released soon. "Hey Yo", her second single was great fun but this will be the song that will show her true potential and we'll have to wait to see if it becomes a hit.
Shakira -She Wolf
Hot or Flop?
Verdict: Flop!
Shakira is releasing her comeback single "She Wolf" to end the pre-promotion with little sneak peaks from the song and geniously created hype around the single. From the first moments, this must be the most dated song in a long time. Only few things that capture any interest in this song, is the verses and the small moment right in the end of the chorus where she breathes to the mic. Other than that it's pretty dull and horrible. If you are a fan of her or you like to hear something very diffirent from anything, you'll love it but for everyone else, this song will remain unrecommended. Sad, because I really really loved and enjoyed her music. Hopefully her album will turn my head around. According to sources, her album will be diffirent from this single - bit more electric. Sounds so much better.
Agree or Dissagree?

Forget the rumour about “Dark Angels”, “K.A.R.M.A”, “Bad Girl Gone Good” etc. because Rihanna has chosen the name of the album a few weeks ago, but want to keep it as a secret until the last moment, to avoid any leak. Numerous artists are collaborating on this album, which will be very certainly an enormous success and will make the return of Rihanna an inevitable comeback worldwide.
Among the army of co-workers, we shall quote for example the famous leader of the group One Republic, Ryan Tedder, who composed two songs for Rihanna, among one completely played by a piano, Kanye West, Justin Timberlake, Soulja Boy, Shontelle, Jay-Z, Pharell Williams, and many others.
At this stage, we shall speak about no more “global tubes”, but about songs which should “mark the spirits forever”, to quote Def Jam. Rihanna has never been so selective and perfectionist in the choice of songs and in their interpretation. She participates actively in the writing of the lyrics and in the selection of the instrumental atmospheres. The album will be more rock’n'roll than the previous, “Good Girl Gone Bad”, and a bit more pop, but will keep the R&B.
It is evident that Rihanna wishes to be recognized as being a mature woman who imposes, at the same time that she shows her own musical style and her own originality. Rihanna likes her image of trendsetter and now wishes to use it in her songs. The album will be full of musical styles and will mark a change of 180° for Rihanna and her fans, who will not be disappointed with the result.
Several duets should appear on the album. By “some”, we hear (understand) two or three. At the moment nobody has recorded, with the exception of those with the singer Chris Brown, which were cancelled and will not appear on the album.
More details of the upcoming Rihanna material should arrive soon, along with the date of the upcoming single premiere that is set to happen next month.
It's officially the end of "Doll Domination" from Pussycat Dolls. Sources claim "Hush Hush" is set to be released as CD-Single in UK and Europe, but there is no outlets to back it up, especially when the single has peaked as #18 in UK and sadly haven't climb enough to chart in most European countries. While "Doll Domination -Mini Collection" re-release was released in UK and certain diffirent re-packed editions have been released across the Europe, US edition titled "Doll Domination 2.0" was never materialized. Latest reports from fans say that some US stores have "Mini Collection" on their shelfs but it could be just imported version.
There is a slight chance though for the girls to promote "Hush Hush" in UK with a TV Performance, while they fly to UK next week. That could do wonders in the singles chart.
There will be 3rd album, but there is no timeline for that. Nicole Scherzinger is set to record more songs to her solo album, when most of her unreleased songs have already leaked. Jessica Sutta has wrote songs with Ryan Tedder and been recording tracks in studio with tentative release date of her solo album being on 2010. Melody Thorton have been planning her first solo record ever since the hiatus after "PCD" and that's what will be happening now, according to Melody herself. The group will be in hiatus, doing their own stuff and then will come back together to record the third album.
After number of Nicole Scherzinger solo tracks and unreleased PCD songs leaking, here's a list of unleaked songs (few leaked as Demo Versions not performed by the girls) by Pussycat Dolls that didn't make it to "Doll Domination", with songs such as "Painted Windows", "Top of The World", "Jai Ho!" (All released in Mini Collection), "Whatever Happens", "Psycho" (leaked rejected DD tracks) and "Bad Girl" (Confessions Of a Shopaholic-Soundtrack) ruled out.

Sources claim "Mannequin" will be the fifth single from Britney Spears. Same sources claim "Mannequin" was also supposed to be the 4th single and it was in the orginal setlist and was set to be the first single before "Womanizer" was chosen , but "Radar" had to get released so it got to go first. Now "Mannequin" is planned as the final single from the album, to be released later in fall while the tour is still going.
And the sources claim that "Unusual You" is set to be added in US leg of the tour, while the tour DVD will be shot in Australian gig.
There is just few days to July 16th, which will be our tour-stop for Britney. So check out the review of the "Circus" tour after July 17th.

Shakira's comeback single "She Wolf" has leaked in English. We have mixture feelings about this song. The cover is pure sex, but the song doesn't have the same effect.

Beyonce and her brand new video for "Sweet Dreams", her next European/UK Single. Since the album came out, this has been the definate favourite from the album along with few others. And with that being said, this is also definately the best or at least one of the best videos from this era. After few okay-ish videos, she nailed it. Also, Lady Gaga's costume from "Paparazzi" video was used (or similar one), but we must say that Beyonce had one that actually fit, instead of Gaga unfortunately failing to look good with it (we love her though). Great video, keeps up the interest from beginning to the end and that's what she should remember with every video from now on. This should be a huge hit for her.
Discuss.
Here's brand newly leaked SECOND version of "Paparazzi" video by Lady Gaga. The second version has those missed scenes of Gaga riding a horse in fairytale-ish costume. Those scenes do make a diffirence in the video, but other than that it's pretty much the same. She looks very good in that scene though.
Remember to support Gaga by buying the CD-single, 7" limited picture disc or just download the song!

Hadise, most known from her hits "Good Kiss" and eurovision hit "Düm Tek Tek (Crazy for You)" is now back with another single called "Fast Life", from the album with same title. The song is alright, quicktempo pop-song giving a good example what the album is like. Which is nothing like her Eurovision shake-up anthem. She looks fantastic in the video that most certanly doesn't look like it was cheap at all!
Britney Spears has added a new song to her setlist for European leg of "Circus" tour. The song is "Mannequin" that was expected to be on the setlist long before the real thing was exposed. The number features brunette Britney in yellow top with "B" logo and skinny jeans. Unfortunately the only similarity to the reharsal-video for the song we saw before "Womanizer" was premiered, is a top with a same colour. The choreography isn't anything alike. The new routine had it's moments but it was pretty boring. But no unneccessary hating, good to hear Britney added another song and THIS song, one of my favourites from the album. Will it be 5th single now?
VipMedia goes Live with Britney within two weeks on 16th of July so we will make sure that you'll know what happened on her gig with a review with pictures.

It will be released in October - months before anyone expected - and quickly followed by a solo album. That means she will beat band mate Nadine Coyle, who had hoped to be the first member of Girls Aloud to go it alone. Fellow X Factor judge SIMON COWELL has agreed to let Cheryl launch her chart-topping bid with a performance on the new series of the ITV talent show.
That starts a whirlwind year for Cheryl. She's due to collaborate with Swedish Grammy award-winning production duo Bloodshy and Avant, who worked on Britney's hit Toxic and latest single Radar. Then it's on to LA where she'll team up with will.i.am, who was Michael Jackson's last producer. Cheryl has already worked with the Black Eyed Peas star on the hit Heartbreaker.
After going solo for six months, she'll return to Girls Aloud next year to record their sixth album. A pal said: "She wants to be a pop star, not a TV star. She's only committed to X Factor this year and doesn't know if she'll have time to do another one. Her music is very different to Girls Aloud. It's pop with an urban twist and the first single is incredible. There's millions being pumped into the promotion, recording, photo shoots and music videos. The plan is to make her as huge as Britney and MADONNA."
More information about Cheryl's first single will be announced soon.

There has been rumours going on all over about these next subjects. VipMedia gets down and clears up some of the gossip, so take a look!
Claim: Girlicious will release new music very soon?
True.
One of the remaining girls, Nichole from the current trio Girlicious has confirmed that they are currently in the studio working on a new single and they hope for the release by the end of summer, along with a video-clip. They've been working on their second album, while they booted out one girl, Tiffany (on far right on the photo above).
Claim: Britney Spears will release a new music later this year?
Possibly True
But we do know for sure that Britney's label has been preparing for her next album or re-release of "Circus" with list of the songs for Britney. It's still unknown will they put out the re-release and it probably depends on how well "Radar" does and how quick will Britney record the songs. She haven't recorded anything yet, she's been reharsing for the European leg of the tour. More details will be updated as the story developes.
Claim: Pussycat Dolls will release "Elevator" as the final single/Video?
False
There has been reports from a fake twitter account of Billboard, multiple sources claim it's 100% fake and they have another account that is official. Ashley also wasn't referring to a new music video being shot, instead she is filming a video blog to youtube. Kim also confirmed "Hush Hush" as their final single awhile ago. Also, how much would you bet for it? It's not even on DD 2.0 (Which still has no official release date in US.).
Claim: Sugababes will release their album sooner than expected?
True
Sugababes are already done with their new album and it's in the final mixing stage and the new single will be premiered on Radio 1 next week.
Claim: Britney's new song on EU leg of the tour is "Overprotected"?
Unknown
There has been rumours about the new song being totally new, brand new song or being "Mannequin" or "Kill the Lights", but latest reports from the fans claim that "Overprotected" is indeed the new song. It was posted on the official site for a moment but quickly removed after. Although it looks real, we keep it under the title "Unknown". We're gonna find out later today when Britney performs in Paris, France.

-New videos are coming up very soon. Beyonce's video for "Sweet Dreams" will premiere on July 9th, on MSN.com and Black eyed Peas are shooting a new video with the same director they used on "Boom Boom Pow". The single will be "Meet Me Halfway" and it was confirmed by Will I Am himself.
-Amelle Berrabah says fans are going to be amazed by the new direction of Sugababes' music and will be shocked by their new single. The 25-year-old singer is thrilled with the different direction the band has taken. She said: "I can't wait until the new single comes out. It doesn't sound like anything we have ever done before. People won't even realise it is our song when they hear it on the radio. It comes out mid-July and we are really looking forward to it." Official site of Sugababes will be confirming the premiere date very soon.
-Pussycat Dolls member Ashley Roberts wrote a short message to fans in twitter telling them about a new video; "AshleyLTMSYFI will be doing a new video soon.. xoxo". Most of the fans were confused about this twit, making them think Pussycat Dolls are shooting a new music-video. According to sources, Ash is just doing a new video blog instead of doing a video clip. "Hush Hush" is doing rather well everywhere exept for US without any promotion though, only US promotion was the song being featured on a dance routine in So You Think You Can Dance and it made "Hush Hush" climb the US iTunes Top 100 just moments after.

New track "Whatever Happens" by The Pussycat Dolls has leaked. Don't get all excited just yet though, because it is only one brilliant song, leftover from "Doll Domination". It didn't make it in the final tracklist, which is crazy itself because the song could've easily been added instead of few fillers or as a b-side to "Jai Ho" or to any other of their singles that had no b-sides. It's written by Ryan Tedder and has lead vocals by Nicole Scherzinger. Hopefully Pussycat Dolls don't dissappear completely now that "Hush Hush" was just released and there is no promotion planned. Keep that train movin', girls!

Britney Spears and her new video "Radar". Pretty random video, to be honest. It does include fine shots of hot Britney, sophisticated Spears, hunky guys and horses. No dancing though, that might be a dissapointment to the fans. To be honest, I can't put my finger to one thing I don't like or like in this video, it was like four minutes of random shots of Britney. It was a diffirent video for sure, but doesn't spoil the song though but it was taken to diffirent direction now. Easily the worst video from this era, but the song is as good as her three brilliant previous singles from "Circus". There are rumours about her opening the VMA's this year. Hopefully, because it could be the anticipated promotion this single needs.
