iTunes Chart: February (Part 2)
Oh, that's weird. :unsure: Maybe try DailyMotion or something? She seems to be doing very well at the moment, but I don't see her success in the UK going far past this single in all honesty, which is a shame because I like her. :( But the US still loves her so I imagine she'll be around for a while I would assume. :D

iTunes Chart: February (Part 2)
Generic US country singer. Not overly talented but SO addictive. :( She's huge in the US, her current album is #1 in the US and has sold almost 2.5m there... :o YouTube her. ^_^

f***ING HELL! :o Defend that Jax... That is NOT just one "slap" or a quick hit, the woman has been beaten up good and proper. Chris Brown disgusts me.

Heath Ledger fans "want Joker Retired"
No I disagree. As much as I agree that Ledger was FAULTLESS in The Dark Knight, is it really fair to fans of the Batman films in general to have one of his most famed nemisis' to be retired? The Joker lived before Heath Ledger and I believe should live on after him. It's like saying if one of the actors that played James Bond was to die - they should just stop making the films. It's stupid. The Joker should live on, and i'm sure whoever is chosen will be more than aware of what exceptionally large shoes he has to fill and will make the effort to try and live up to that. No disrespect to Ledger, who as I said, was absolutely flawless in his performance as The Joker, but it's obscene to rule out such a pivotal character just because one actor played it exceptionally well and unfortunately died. Plus The Joker didn't die in The Dark Knight... Therefore it makes sense for him to return in a future film.

Beaten up by Chris Brown
Agreed. ^_^ I'm pleased that not only her fans, the majority of non-fans, the media but her peers as well are supporting her. :D I wouldn't want to mess with Jay-Z like... He'll get Beyoncé to kick your little ass. :ph34r:

Love Story
If you like Love Story and White Horse you'll love the 2nd album. :P Not sure about the first because i've heard absolutely nothing from it... But I would definitely say the Fearless album is in the same vein as Love Story and White Horse, so you should check it out if you like those. ^_^

Love Story
GAH. I LOVE HER. :( Love Story is immense. White Horse is immense too. Now You're Not Sorry is growing on me too. What is wrong with me!?! :( I'm going to take a look at her debut album too, any suggestions on which tracks to start on? The thing I love about it is that she's another artist I could easily have avoided but made myself look into because by other peoples comments she seemed like an artist I would like and I DO (in a guilty pleasure kinda way obvs). I hope she gets a sizeable hit out this. ^_^

Beaten up by Chris Brown
Jay-Z has issued a warning to Chris Brown amid allegations that he assaulted girlfriend Rihanna. The rapper called Brown a "walking dead man" after learning that the 'Umbrella' singer had suffered "horrific" injuries in an alleged altercation earlier this week. "Chris is a walking dead man. He messed with the wrong crew," he told Us Weekly. Meanwhile, Kanye West has admitted that he was "devastated" by the news. "It’s so devastating, that should never happen. I feel like [Rihanna's] my baby sis and I would do anything and everything to help her in any situation," he told KIIS-FM. Brown has been charged with one count of making felony criminal threats. He was freed on $50,000 bail and will appear in court on March 5. :whistle:

The 'If You Seek Amy' Controversy Continues In The US
Both Tyler and Slick are gay... They're not homophobic, they just hate people like Chris Crocker giving gay people a horrid stereotypical label, I imagine. ^_^

Brit Awards 2009 [Official Topic]
As I thought. -_- She'll be snubbed again at The Brits too. Disgusting. Her success and sheer talent alone merits some kind of large recognition. Did she perform at the pre-Grammy party then? :unsure:

Jade Goody 1981 - 2009 RIP
Hmmm, interesting topic to the say the least. Firstly, I do not like, nor have I ever liked Jade Goody. The woman has no reason to be famous, is arguably racist, most definitely a bully and I find pretty much everything she does to be in poor taste. However, (like Jade) if I was in her situation and I knew I would potentially be dead within 6 months you damn right I would do every little thing I could to ensure the wealth of my child (well, children - I guess!) regardless of the moral implications. To be frank, I couldn't care less if people thought I was morally bankrupt for selling my story to this tabloid or that tabloid, at the end of the day she's looking after her kids - and that, to me, is instinctively the only thing a mother would do. As for "whoring herself", do you really think that with everything Jade must be feeling now she actually wants to be photographed with no hair? Or telling the entire world how her kids are going to be raised motherless? I would be surprised if the woman can even bare to drag herself out of bed in the morning, let alone actually want to do it because of some sick fascination she has with being famous. Had this been over nothing and she had something to gain (financially or by other means) for herself then I would completely agree with the cynics, but she has absolutely nothing to gain from this. Yeah, sure she'll get plenty of money for splashing her story but is she actually going to be around to enjoy it? Most likely not. So in essence what is she doing? She's ensuring that her family, regardless of what we think of her deadbeat boyfriend or obscure mother, are provided for. They're still Jade's family, even if the public opinion of them is incredibly low - do you know what I mean? It's natural she'll want to provide for them. People can say "ah yeah well get out and get a job" etc, etc. But why work your arse off for minimum wage when you can make a probable 6 figure sum for one interview? That may be a lack of morals, but to me that's common sense. In regards to the media coverage of this - yeah, of course there are moral implications to this. Should the media be covering this? Should Jade be left alone? Yes, she should be - if she wishes to be. Personally, I think Jade is entitled to do whatever she wants to do, as tactless as the British media can be at times I am quite sure that the majority would leave her be if she so wished, out of respect more than anything else. Maybe that's a tad naive of me to think that, but hey whatever. To hit on the topic of "raising awareness" with her earnings from selling her story, again, I think Jade is entitled to do whatever she likes with it. One thing I love is empathy, being able to put yourself in someone elses place and genuinely state what you would do, and again, i'm with Jade. If I had to go through the heartache of splashing my tragic imminent death all over the tabloids to get a bit of extra cash to ensure the well being of my children, would I honestly give it to charity? No, I wouldn't. I, of course, would love to try and raise awareness, but would I honestly take money out of a fund for my motherless children to raise awareness? No, certainly not. I've worked hard "whoring" myself to the media to gain that money and it will go rightfully to my children and family. To re-iterate the first part of my post, I cannot stand Jade Goody. Maybe I see things slightly differently because i'm a parent? I can't say for sure, but that's my honest opinion on the matter. I shall be back to give my counter-arguement later once Scott has replied. :P :heehee:

'Whatcha Think About That' // 3rd UK Single
The only version I found was on FMSM, and it was ripped from the video in very poor quality. However I found the video edit of Bottle Pop in HQ. :magic: If I find it I shall let you know Jack dear! ^_^

Mariah to split with Island Def Jam?
But Mariah has always claimed that she's happier at IDJ because she was complete creative freedom unlike her other 2 labels. Would you really say she belonged at Sony giving her always saying the above? Personally, I would like her to stay with Def Jam, stop with all of the JD collaborations (a few is fine, but the best part of an album is very "heard it all before" by now), stop rubbing her husband in our faces, knuckle down, record some amazing tracks and actually be arsed to promote it.

Down 36 places for Mariah. :arrr: I have to chuckle slightly :heehee: I never really expected it to do well, but this is just a TAD laughable.

Mariah to split with Island Def Jam?
EMI are notoriously terrible. Plus isn't it now known as Virgin EMI? She's been with Virgin before, and was paid to leave. :heehee:

Girls Aloud & Take That for Comic Relief 09
Nothing in that above article suggests anything about Mr. Men doing the Comic Relief single... It only says that Mr. Men are the THEME of this years campaign. With a new story being written with the proceeds going to CR. I definitely don't believe they'll be doing the single...

Hero 2.0
Nooooo he got sacked from Columbia and then went onto Casablanca where he personally masterminded the whole Lindsay Lohan music thing, and when her 2nd album went belly up he got sacked from there too. :heehee: However he is married to latin singing sensation Thalia. A resounding WHO please?
-
Mariah to split with Island Def Jam?
Agreed on the Rihanna bit. Although when you look at the promotion for Mimi - she was EVERYWHERE. You couldn't get away from her, and she actually made separate appearances travelling back and forth to the UK to promote EVERY single (bar Say Something) and did various performances on various shows etc. When this project began I really had high hopes because once again she was everywhere, you couldn't escape her. Then once the album went to #1 and TMB went to #1, they just seemed to lose interest. I recall seeing one or two performances for Bye Bye and that was the project officially over. I don't know whether IDJ or Mariah is to blame for that to be honest...
