Simon Cowell Is A Single Man
Thanks to E! Online for the story on Simon Cowell’s break-up with Terri Seymour. And before all the silly rumors start about Simon and Paula now being able to love each other, I think Simon starts dating anything that moves. Let’s face it, the guy is one of the more recognizable faces on television.
Britney’s People Release The Track List For Her New Album MTV.com says that Britney’s next single is going to be Circus which is also the title of her album. I can’t wait to hear If You Seek Amy and Mmm Papi. Not really, but at least those titles are interesting.
I have an update on two stories that I posted last week.
We have been doing shows over the last year; as recent as last weekend!
And finally, as I expected, Michael says no!. I have some advice for Jermaine. The next time you talk about the Jacksons getting back together, please talk to Mike first. He loves you, but he’s trying to do him.
01-Whatever You Like (T.I.)
02-Live Your Life (T.I. feat. Rihanna)
T.I. continues to commandeer the top spots of the singles chart, fending off a serious challenge from Beyonce (see below). “Whatever You Like” is the first song to return to #1 on three separate occasions since Chic’s “Le Freak” 30 years ago. Induct Chic into the Rock ‘n Roll Hall of Fame, y’all!!
03-If I Were a Boy (Beyonce)
Beyonce jumps 66-3 with “If I Were a Boy”, the first single from her upcoming “I Am…Sasha Fierce” (God, it kills me to type that out). By reaching this position, Beyonce has already outperformed the first single from her last album, “B-Day”. “Deja Vu” (remember that?) peaked at #10.
04-So What (Pink)
05-Womanizer (Britney Spears)
06-Hot N Cold (Katy Perry)
07-Let it Rock (Kevin Rudolf feat. Lil’ Wayne)
08-Miss Independent (Ne-Yo)
“Miss Independent” is Ne-Yo’s first EVER #1 single on the R&B charts, coming after he scored three #2 singles. Hard to believe, given Ne-Yo’s dominance over the R&B scene these past three years, but true!
09-Disturbia (Rihanna)
I’m still trying to get over the fact that Ne-Yo said Rihanna has a big head. Isn’t that a little like Michael Jackson saying “Damn, you’re pale!!”
10-I’m Yours (Jason Mraz)
Mr. A-Z returns to the Top Ten with what is now by far the biggest hit of his career. Guess now that cold weather’s approaching, people need to feel a little more of that summer magic.
11-Can’t Believe It (T-Pain feat. Lil’ Wayne)
12-Love Lockdown (Kanye West)
13-Better in Time (Leona Lewis)
14-Right Now (Na Na Na) (Akon)
15-Love Story (Taylor Swift)
16-Mrs. Officer (Lil’ Wayne)
17-Paper Planes (M.I.A.)
Is it me, or is “Paper Planes” one of the ODDEST songs to ever hit the Top 20? Also, doesn’t M.I.A. remind you a little bit of Neneh Cherry? Do you even REMEMBER Neneh Cherry?
18-Closer (Ne-Yo)
19-Gotta Be Somebody (Nickelback)
20-Crush (David Archuleta)
OK-I give, I give. I liked David Cook more this past season, but Archuleta’s new song has grown on me to the point where it now blows everything Cook’s put out so far out of the water. Damn generic pop songs, why do you torture me so??
These stories were just so odd/funny/crazy that I had to post them.
The Players Don’t Dwell In Room 112
Thanks to Soulbounce for giving us at least some news on Bad Boy’s old group, 112. However, it’s bad news. According to the article, Michael Keith says that 112 is no more because of some shady business dealings. Not like I necessarily want to hear another 112 album again, but you hate to hear these stories about old music groups who at one time had success, and can’t deal with not being successful anymore. Is it bad that the only member I remember is Slim?
John Cena gets ready to defend the titleM.O.P. Sues John Cena And WWE The SOHH blog had the story about M.O.P. suing the WWE because John Cena’s theme music uses a made up phrase that samples an old M.O.P. tune.
The Infringing Work includes a distinctive ‘freestyle’ rap — ‘BRRR Abado’ that has been sampled from the Infringed Work and is clearly repeated three times in the Infringing Work, at the introduction, the second chorus, and the third chorus.
Settle it in the ring!
