Slow news day... Solonge Knowles has gone done a Britney

Solange Knowles is the latest in a now long line of celebs to make drastic changes to their hair, check out the before and after pictures below;

She has previously threatened to 'pull a Britney' if people didn't stop comparing her to her sister, I guess that time has finally come. Maybe she will also start wearing wigs to award shows and other special occasions like Britney did!

Exclusive - Chris Brown on Oprah!!

Yes you read right, Chris Brown is set to appear on Oprah!

According to a close source in Brown’s camp, the singer is currently in the final stages of negations with Oprah about an appearance on her show.

Brown’s team are currently quibbling with the chat show host over the questions she will be allowed to ask him. Apparently they do not want any specific questions about the night of the Rihanna assault.

The singer only wants to talk about how he is feeling but not about the event itself… If Brown’s team stick to their guns this will be a very tricky interview for Oprah as I’m guessing that is the main thing she would want to talk to him about??

If the interview does take place, I imagine this episode will pull in a huge audience; which should help Miss Winfrey claw back her ailing viewer numbers. Recent reports suggest that there has been a sharp decline in her audience figures for the past three years...

So in essence this interview could be a win-win situation for both Winfrey and Brown!

KiD CuDi – Make Her Say f. Kanye West & Common (Video Premier)

Here's the new video for ‘Make Her Say’ KiD CuDi's latest collaboration with Kanye and Common.
The track takes a sample from Lady GaGa's current hit Poker Face and gives it a cool twist.

Watch the video here;



The track is taken from KiD CuDi's upcoming album Man on the Moon: The End of Day due out September 15th. The album will also feature a guest appearance from Snoop Dogg.

Really looking forward to hearing that album!

Exclusive - Chris Brown apology

Wow! So Chris Brown has put out an apology video.

Watch it here;



Not sure what to say about this one and I don’t mean to be cynical but... I’m sure his people are keen to get his career up and running again so this might be a way of gaining acceptance with the general public just before his new single is released.

Hmmmmm...

Dolce & Gabbana's got talent

So Dolce and Gabbana have hired five guys from Italy's national swimming team to exhibit their new collection of briefs.

















I think they are doing a stellar job so thought I would post the picture to show my appreciation.

For those interested their names are Emiliano Brembilla, Paolo Bossini, Alessandro Terrin, Mirko Di Tora, and Nicola Cassio.

Ciara's new look short hair

Following in RiRi’s footsteps (see Friday’s post http://heathermusic.blogspot.com/2009/07/riris-new-look.html ) Ciara revealed her new haircut to the world vi her Twitter page ( www.twitter.com/PrincessSuperC )

It’s out with the long luscious locks and in with the cropped pixie style crop.

She seems to be wearing it well but there’s enough hair left to stick a weave in if she gets bored!

Jade Ewen - My Man *NEW SINGLE*

Fresh from her Eurovision success which placed the UK in 5th place, the country’s highest position in 8 years, Jade Ewan is back with her new single My Man.

This is a really upbeat RNB/Pop track which is bursting with energy and is just the type of fresh sound Jade needed to come out with to distinguish herself from Eurovision entry My Time.

Her excellent vocals compliment the great contemporary production on this track

Check out the track here;


Set for release in September I think this has a good chance of doing well in the UK charts.

NEW VIDEO: MARIAH CAREY "OBSESSED"

NeYo's So Sick in Manchester and cries on stage!

RnB superstar Ne-Yo broke down in tears during his concert yesterday at the Manchester MEN Arena. Concert goers said he had been visibly unwell from the start of the show but continued on despite this.

It did eventually all became too much for him. Thirty minutes into the performance he was struggling with his voice and realised he had to stop. As he broke the news that his performance would have to be cut short, to the waiting crowd, the floods of tears began to fall.

Watch the footage here;



In an official statement made to; www.globalgrind.com Ne-Yo said

Basically, I have an issue with not knowing when to say enough is enough, so last night in Manchester, my body said it for me.
I got on stage energized and ready to go, even tho for the last 5 days I've been dealing with a sinus infection. I paid it no real mind, and kept on going, like I always do. My voice couldn't take it. From the first song I knew something was wrong. I shoulda stopped there, but I come from a school where no matter what, the show must go on. It wasn't until about 4 songs in that I came to the painful realization that my voice was done, literally nothing left, and that I would have to stop the show.

And he had a special message for those who had criticised his manhood because he cried;

To anyone out there that would like to question my manhood because of this I'll say this to you:
If the one thing you cared about more than anything else in the world was threatened or even taken from you, if you knew that the people you cared for the most you had to disappoint and it was your fault... and this didn't spark some kind of emotional outbreak within you...then with no shame I'll say you are truly a stronger man than I.

It is understood that once he has recuperated he will do the Manchester show again and complete his reaming three dates. Having seen him in concert before, I would say that he is definitely worth the wait.

Get well soon Ne-Yo!

RiRi's new look!

First Cassie then Amber now Rhianna has jumped on the bandwagon of 'out there' hair styles! She showed off her new look in New York's west village.



For this look, Rnna has gone one step further thsie and shaved both sides of her head, someone took pictures of both sides just proove it! She seems to be wearing it well!

MOBO Michael Jackson Tribute

Mary J Blige ft. Drake - The One

Keeping with the Mary J Blige theme... check out her track The One featuring man of the moment Drake.



This song has been around for a couple of months now but it has been slowly gaining radio play and I’m sure it will be all over the place soon!

Remeber where you heard it first!

T.I. (feat. Mary J. Blige) - Remember Me [OFFICIAL VIDEO]

I didn’t think we were going to get a video for this due to T.I’s recent incarceration but I guess they were able to pull this together just in time!




The video is pretty predictable but was perhaps made to send out a special message to fiancé Tiny...
Mary J Blige really makes this song, love the way she sounds on this!

Beyonce - Sweet Dreams - Official Music Video

Has Beyonce been banned from doing videos that include men?? or are her funds low due to the credit crunch??

While it was a cool format for Single Ladies and acceptable for Ego, isn't is starting to get a bit tired now?

Wicked song though!
