  1. awww that's a shame! i wish the cataracs would release their album, then it could end up on that! omg i forgot about that! hopefully it will be released on a greatest hits or something at some point!
  2. agreeeed! i actually wasn't that interested until i heard lana and jay were working on the soundtrack. now it sounds pretty awesome!
  3. Completely agree! To me it seems like a lot more people know who Skylar his, probably from the Eminem and Diddy collabs. But on the other hand Bonnie is a lot more radio-friendly and I can see the public loving her music. It will be interesting to see who does better!
  4. Fergie has a new Pea roasting in the pod! The 37 year-old singer officially announced on Twitter Monday that she was pregnant, Tweeting to her fans: “Josh & Me & BABY makes three!!!”" This is the couple’s first child following their 2009 wedding. Both Fergie and Josh have expressed their desire for children in the past, but have said that they wanted the pregnancy to occur “naturally” and unplanned. “Not right this second,” the Black Eyed Peas frontwoman said in May 2011, with Duhamel adding, “We’ll go there at some point.” Congratulations to Fergie and Josh! What do you think of the news? Are you happy for Fergie and Josh, or would you prefer for them to focus more on their career? Let us know in the comments below! [/html]

  6. Beyoncé
  7. Beyoncé's HBO documentary Life Is But A Dream premiered on Monday night to general acclaim from critics and fans worldwide. With an abundance of hype and 1.8 million viewers, the documentary has broken HBO's record for the most viewed program since 2004. Yet is the film actually worth all the hype? Find out below! Life Is But A Dream is Beyoncé's first feature-length documentary and the most we've seen of her since her pregnancy late last year. Primarily shot by King Bey herself, the film intersperses home footage with interview sequences and bountiful performance scenes. Despite it's billing as an intimate look into her life, the film rarely displays anything that we didn't know about Bey, instead choosing to flesh out major points of the last few years in more detail while still maintaining quite a bit of mystery as to Bey's day-to-day life. In an interview with GQ, Bey revealed - "I always battle with: How much do I reveal about myself? How do I keep my humility? How do I keep my spirit and the reality? And how do I continue to be generous to — to my fans and to my craft?" - a sentiment echoed again and again during the documentary. Even after an hour and a half and plenty of tearful moments, the audience feels no more connection to the singer than they did before watching it. If there's one thing that Life is able to reinforce to it's audience, it's Bey's talent - which, in this case, is both a positive and a negative. The film languors quite a bit over performance footage, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but most fans will have seen it all from previous DVD's such as Revel Presents: Beyoncé Live, 4 Intimate Nights with Beyoncé or Live at Roseland: Elements of 4. Furthermore, while the songs are often linked to whatever Bey is talking about during her interview sections, by the end of the film the performances shown are completely unrelated to the topic - as is the case with 'Resentment', a song from 2006 which is seemingly randomly slid into the show to fill up time. Another problem with the film is it's somewhat lack of focus. Most documentary films begin with a statement, informing the audience of what dates the film was shot between and what it will be following - but Life meanders along at it's own slow pace, failing to lead up to anything or create any sort of dramatic tension for the audience to enjoy. No particularly interesting revelations are made to give the plot a twist, and overall the film stretches on for far too long. Overall, Life Is But A Dream is overlong, disjointed and gratuitous in it's Instagrammed shots of Bey and her doe eyes. It provides only a little insight into the enigmatic performer, who has often been referred to as one of the best of her generation. And yet somehow, we still love it. It may be her beauty, her kindness, her ferocity or her obvious talent, but it's hard not to be compelled to the 31 year-old singer and her long, mournful, wide-eyed look at the camera. While we're quite sure that almost every scene in the film has been thought over again and again to promote a new aspect of the Beyoncé brand, if Bey puts as much heart, compassion and energy into the rest of her products, we'll keep buying them again and again. Rating: 7.5/10 Watch: Life Is But A Dream
  8. Lana Del Rey has hinted towards her potential involvement in Baz Luhrmann's upcoming adaptation simply by Tweeting out "Gatsby" recently. A similiar post appeared on Lana's Facebook page but has since been removed. This isn't the first time we've heard Lana's name connected to the film. Last year, Lana spoke to NME about her upcoming projects, saying, “I’ve been helping compose scores for movies. So, like, there’s a movie coming out in the summer that’s set in the 1920s and it’s been fun for me to write love songs for a woman who is the star.” If Lana is indeed writing songs for the film, she will be in good company. Leonardo DiCaprio, Carey Mulligan, Joel Edgerton and Tobey Maguire are all starring in the film, and the soundtrack is reportedly being worked on by Jay-Z. Would you be excited to hear Lana's song in the final film?

  10. Azealia Banks has officially premiered the music video for her remix of Baauer's 'Harlem Shake'! Just days after premiering her version of the song via Twitter, Miss Banks has uploaded a video of her twerking, singing into a Hello Kitty microphone, and being generally flawless in a video directed by Rony Alwin. It may not be the viral video we've come to expect to be paired with the song, but we love it anyway! What do you think of Bambi's latest video?
  11. yeahh me too, or at least release a glassheart ep! and yeah i really wanted 'glassheart' as the second single after 'trouble', but i feel it's kind of too late now. they should try anyway though!
  12. While we have yet to hear much from the Lady herself about exactly how her health is affecting her and her business, we do have some news today from GagaDaily’s Emma, who met the pop singer just minutes ago. According to Emma, Gaga claimed - ‎”I’m on crutches and occasionally using a wheelchair, but I’m okay, I promise!” – a claim backed up by this image of her in Starbucks in a wheelchair released today. Supposedly, Gaga is set to enter the hospital for surgery next week – but following her weeks of rest we have absolutely no clue what she’ll be doing next. Will The Born This Way Ball be rescheduled for those who missed out on seeing the show? Will Gaga be leaping straight into the release of ARTPOP, her long awaited third studio album? Or will there be an encore performance filmed for DVD? Rumours about a DVD already having been filmed reached a peak today following the “leaking” of this supposed footage. Take a look below: While only time will tell what the future holds, celebrities have been taking to Twitter to send Gaga their love. Following trending topics such as #KatyCatsPrayforGaga and #RihannaNavyPrayforGaga, Tony Bennett tweeted his well wishes for Gaga, saying: will.i.am also joined in, sending out words of solidarity today by saying: Meanwhile, a certain someone who hasn’t seen eye to eye with either Gaga or will in the past had quite a different story to tell. PopHatesFags would like to send all their warmest wishes to Gaga. We’re praying for you to get better soon and can’t wait to see what you do next! How about you? Do you want the Born This Way era to continue or is the ARTPOP era long overdue? Let us know below! [/html]

  17. Azealia Banks and Perez Hilton have had a war of words on Twitter...again. The 21 year old rapper and 34 year old gossip monger came to blows after Azealia and Bauer traded insults on Twitter following Bauer's removal of Azealia's new song, 'Harlem Shake', from Soundcloud - a song which was a remixed version of Bauer's own hit. At this point, Perez jumped in with his own opinion on the controversy, saying: To which Azealia succintly replied: Whose team are you on? Was Bauer right to kill the remix considering Azealia wasn't making any money off it? And should Perez have gotten involved in the first place? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below!

  19. the cataracs just posted this on their official facebook page! are you guys interested to see what they came up with?
  20. Two of pop’s brightest young rising stars are both set to go head to head this year, with both Bonnie McKee and Skylar Grey preparing their albums for release this year. Both McKee and Grey are famed for penning some of the biggest hits in recent years, with the former working extensively on Katy Perry’s Teenage Dream album and the latter penning ‘Love the Way You Lie’ for Eminem and Rihanna. While Bonnie’s album is gearing up for a summer release, Skylar promises that hers, which is currently in the mixing process, will be reaching our iTunes a lot sooner. ““I am putting out an album this summer on Epic,” Bonnie revealed at this year’s pre-Grammy’s party. She confirmed that she would be working with “all kinds of people” on her new music, including “Greg Kurstin, Dr. Luke, Katy Perry – and several people from the Teddybears,” before alluding to some high-profile collaborations. She furthermore confirmed two music videos that will premiere in March, followed by a nationwide tour to support the album. Bonnie is letting the public in on her road to success with her Idolator-sponsored web-series, ‘Popstar In Training’. Meanwhile, on the other end of the pop spectrum, Skylar Grey is prepping her album Don’t Look Down for release ”sooner rather than later”. ”I’m excited because I finally love my album,” she told Billboard. “I liked it a lot, but there was something missing — so I took an extra year to finish it. I’m so glad I did, some of my favorite songs on the album were written just in the past few months.” With Eminem stepping in as executive producer on the album, an urban edge was to be expected, but Grey claims “it’s got a lot of hip-hop beats, but it’s not hip-hop”. Don’t Look Down is currently being mixed and is in final stages of production. This begs the question: is there room enough for both girls in the music industry this year? While they both have vastly different styles, both musically and aesthetically, both are at pretty much the same point in their careers and definitely have a lot to offer. Whose album will you be picking up? Let us know in the comments below! [/html]

  22. httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkgGgUkR3mM While we may not have heard much from Evanescence lately after their ill-fated self-titled album last year, we're glad to see the band is just as alive as ever. As a Valentine's Day gift to their fans, the band has chosen to release a music video for 'Lost in Paradise' today. The song is classic Evanescence, beginning with Amy Lee on her trusty piano before breaking out into an all-out rock ballad. The video features shots of the band in concert interspersed with cuts of fans from around the world. Of the video, Lee said: Cut together with some footage we took ourselves, this video was filmed by our fans around the world. Thank you all for an amazing tour and for your help documenting a memory that we will cherish forever! What do you think of the song? Is there a future for Evanescence in today's pop-dominated world? Let us know below! Download: Evanescence - 'Lost in Paradise'
  23. httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lEKOWKcUxdU will.i.am has officially premiered the music video for his 'Scream & Shout' music video, and it's a group affair! The video features Diddy, Lil Wayne, Waka Flocka and Hit-Boy with Britney Spears holding her own against the males in the video. The visuals themselves are similiar to the original music video's style, with heavy use of black and white sets and electronic interference taking place throughout the piece. What do you think of the music video? Do you prefer this to the original? Let us know below! Download will.i.am - 'Scream & Shout (Remix) (Feat. Britney Spears, Diddy, Lil Wayne, Waka Flocka & Hit-Boy)'

  25. httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGhIEkfby1M Lana Del Rey has unveiled her latest visual offering for promotional single 'Burning Desire'. The song, Lana's first promotional single taken from her Paradise EP, was released late last year as the theme song for the new Jaguar F-Type car, and has quickly become a fan favourite. The simple music video features Lana looking the picture of classic Hollywood in a white gown as she stands on a lonesome stage singing the song. Overlaid are images of the F-Type in action and stock Lana's trademark stock footage. Meanwhile, fans are still awaiting news of Lana's two upcoming music videos for both 'Cola' and 'Dark Paradise'. What do you think of 'Burning Desire'? Is it classic Lana or are you disappointed? Download: Lana Del Rey - 'Burning Desire'
