SAY IT AIN'T SO! Mya is working with SISQO on her new album!
R&B singer Mya has revealed via her Twitter account that she's been in the studio with 90's superstar turned has-been Sisqo.
The two were recording for Mya's upcoming sixth studio album which will be released independently via her own label Planet 9.
Mya is also working with former Bad Boy hitmaker Chucky Thompson, who back in the 90's was responsible for crafting hits for Biggie, Mary J Blige, Faith Evans, and Total.
As much as I want to laugh my motherfuckin' ass off at this I'm going to stay positive. I know this is a little "WASHED UP ALERT!" but look on the bright side, maybe Mya is just tryna bring back that 90's R&B sound that the game has been missing? Maybe she wants to give the new album an old school touch so she reached back in time and plucked out two of the decades biggest hitmakers? I respect that she's on the indie grind so I'm gonna put the haterade down because making jokes about this is just way too easy and I love Mya too much to do that.
CHA CHING! Madonna & Beyonce both make Forbes Celebrity 100 list... making them the two most POWERFUL musicians in the WORLD!
Both Madonna and Beyonce have made this years Forbes Celebrity 100 list, which tallies the most powerful celebrities in the world based on earnings and media exposure, which includes television, online, radio, and overall press mentions.
Madonna came in at #3 with earnings of $110 million, mainly due to her Sticky & Sweet tour being the highest grossing tour of 2008 with $280 million. Contributing to her press points was her divorce from Guy Ritchie, affair with Alex Rodriguez, and her trouble in adopting a second African child.
Beyonce managed to come in one spot lower than Madge at #4 with earnings of $87 million. Although Queen Bey was ranked considerably lower for TV/Radio exposure and overall press, the diva was second on the web rankings, only coming in behind President Obama. Bey made her fortune from album sales, touring, her Dereon fashion line, and movies, but most of her income and exposure came from her product plugging with Nintendo, Armani, Cyrstal Geyser, General Mills, and Samantha Thavasa handbags.
Beyonce and Madonna were noticeably the only musicians in the top 10, with actress Angelina Jolie dethroning the reigning champion Oprah to take the top spot, making Jolie the most powerful celebrity in the world. The actresses rival Jennifer Aniston managed to place #7, one spot higher than ex-husband Brad Pitt who scraped in at #8.
I'm a little shocked that there were only two musicians in the top 10, but out of anybody Madge and Bey are probably the most deserving considering how much they work. They're always doing something to keep their names in the press and money on their pockets so it doesn't surprise me. It's unfair that Bey was lower for press points though, she's only lower because she's black. Mainstream media never gives love to black celebrities, especially not international media, and it proves it by having her place second on the web rankings.
I can't believe Angelina made number one though. Just like Halle Berry she's one of the most overrated actresses in the world with a string of box office duds and she's only on the list because she's a tabloid sensation. It's funny that Jennifer Aniston beat Brad Pitt though!
MUSIC VIDEO PREMIERE! David Guetta & Kelly Rowland - When Love Takes Over!
I know we've all been waiting for this like crazy so I'm gonna cut right to the chase. Here's David Guetta featuring Kelly Rowland "When Love Takes Over" official video!
Stunning! I love Kelly and she looked so beautiful in this, you never see her shaking her ass in next to nothing like a ho, she's just always classy. I liked how they set it at the beach and the storyline was everybody getting ready for the party, and even though not that much happened in the clip it was better than I expected for todays economic climate which is always producing cheap ass video's. My only complaint is that David Guetta was in it, I mean I know it's his song but we all just want Ms Kelly ok?
