BritBrit Performs on XFactor!

luckily me and my fellow gossip whore friends were able to find a live stream of this so we were able to watch it in real time!



she had 2 other performances this weekend, one on the Bambi Awards in Germany, and another on Star Academy in France. XFactor is taped in England. this one was the best of the three. many fans, including myself feel like she really needs time to get her confidence back, and thats exactly whats happening. she breaks out of her shell here!

anyways, watch and judge for yourself. Read more!

Tales of a "Slumdog Millionaire"

this morning on ONTD, someone posted a new song by M.I.A that is featured in the beginning scenes of the Indian independent film "Slumdog Millionaire". with a look at the trailer, it seems like the movie is pretty good! direction looks good, nice music (minus the overplayed Ting Ting's "Great DJ"), and the plot seems rivoting. ill have to find some way to see this. M.I.A's involvement certainly secures its credibility for me.

after you watch the trailer above, listen to the song "O...Saya"


M.I.A also talks about the first artist under her new label:
The soundtrack to "Slumdog Millionaire" will mark the first release on M.I.A.'s Interscope label, N.E.E.T. In 2009, M.I.A. said, the label will release her first signing, Baltimore's teenage rapper Rye Rye, whose club rave-up, "Shake It to the Ground," comes off as a more Americanized M.I.A., but no less energetic or resilient.

Working with Rye Rye, said M.I.A., has inspired her to get back into the studio to work on her third record. She offered no timetable. "I’m just writing," said M.I.A., who is pregnant with her first child. "You have to be in the habit of writing as much as possible. I don’t have any sort of process. I have all the artwork done and everything, but I don’t have any thoughts as to how this album should sound. It’s weird. I just need to find where I am and what I’m thinking."

She excitedly speaks of Rye Rye as a sort of pet project, noting she does all of Rye Rye's "production, and I do all her styling. I dye her weave." The 17-year-old rapper has a more hard-core club sound than M.I.A.'s globe-trotting electronics, and it sounds like being a label
head has provided M.I.A. an opportunity to live vicariously. "Rye Rye's record was really clubby, and that’s where I started, and she fits that so well," M.I.A. said. "Her music has so much energy. I kind of exhaust with that her. So when I’m sitting down to write my own music, it’s coming from a different place. I want to be able to do things that I feel like are not getting said."


thanks to this person for find all of this!

More Circus Leaks!!!

lord christ, i cant even handle this!! three more tracks from Circus have leaked tonight! one of them is written by Lady Gaga and features her in the background vocals. EPIC EPIC EPIC EPIC.

here is the gaga song Quicksand:


rock boy:


trouble:


about a similar track that was leaked on youtube the other day that was rumored to be gaga's "Quicksand", Gaga said “The rumored clip of Britney Spears’ Song, Quicksand, which I wrote that is being viewed online is totally not legit, and is farthest from the actual track. I’ve heard it many times, and if the song is put on the record, you’ll all see it then and only then. Until My work is 100% complete it is not to be posted all around the web and that goes against everything that I believe in as I do my job”

looks like its too late gaga! its leaked and i LOVE IT. you OWN. i promise u this version is the real thing, be careful when u search it on youtube, because there are like 7 fake versions.

Britmas 2008- Most of "Circus" has Leaked

ok guys, heres the deal. after i posted the song "Circus" yesterday, about 90% of the album leaked. and let me tell you, it is EPIC. she has a good mix of tones and styles, and theres only one or two songs that i would consider skipping when listening to the album in full.

im gonna post everything i could find on youtube below the cut, but be warned that the songs may be taken down. if you do a little search, im sure you can find the downloads. make sure you still BUY the album when it comes out.

also, justjared has revealed that brit will be at the tree lighting ceremony in NYC's Rockefeller Center, details of her appearance are still being worked out however. no word on a live performance.

"Hobbit" Update

a few months ago, i posted about James McAvoy possibly being cast as Bilbo Baggins in a new Guillermo del Torro directed "Hobbit". that was complete crap and im sorry i led you on. anyway, new information was released from del Torro himself on details pertaining to the pre-production of the film. ill sum up the important parts here for people who are averse to reading articles, but you can go to comingsoon for the full thing.

* the casting wont be done until the writing for the script is completely done, because sometimes things are contradicted week to week, and alienating a fan base due to constant changes.

*lots of radio controlled suits for the creatures

*alot of attention will be given to one of the main creatures Smaug, a dragon.

WOW!

im not an anime person at all, but i used to watch dragonball z when i was babysitting in my teens when the parents came home late. usually i fell asleep. but even with a small amount of viewing, i can really appreciate how eerily similar this person looks to the cartoon character.

a live action film version of the show is coming soon. click here to view more promo pics and find out some more information.

Douches on SNL

speaking of live variety shows, the latest vid to be making the rounds today is one of Justin Timberlake, Paul Rudd (<3) , and Beyonce on SNL. i watched the video, in part because i am a sucker for punishment, which really is what a JT or Beyonce video is. but, it was actually pretty funny! usually you can smell her ego from a hundred miles away, but she seemed pretty normal- good acting! of course JT had to make it all about him. anyways, i got some laughs and paul rudd is absolutely adorable, so im posting it! enjoy.

MadTV is Cancelled :(

Although i havent watched in years, MadTV was always my favorite lazy saturday night guilty pleasure. i would have very heated arguements with people, including my parents about how it was WAY better than SNL. looking back, this probably wasnt true, but i have a unique sense of humor, and prefer low brow. perhaps the reason i stopped watching was because of my favorite actors that left- Aries Spears, Stephanie Weir, Nicole Sullivan, Michael McDonald, and Debra Wilson.

To celebrate the death of such a large part of my adolescence, i am going to post some of my fave moments from the show (that i could find on youtube anyway). Heres one, and the rest are below the cut.

Britney Spears- "Circus" Leaks

first, id like to say that im sorry for not posting for song long, if i have any readers left that is. this semester is taking its toll, and i am trying to get that Lady Gaga fan community up and running. also theres some general laziness factors.

MOVING ON. slowly but surely Britney Spears' upcoming album "Circus" is leaking. for those who are britney fans, this is EPIC. ill be posting any songs that become available in full. in advance, i apologize if any youtube vids are taken down.

the one i have right now is for the song "Circus". the vid is low quality, but the song is GREAT. this album is going to be awesome. hopefully my gaga addiction will be cured by then. ]



if any more become available, this post will be edited and vids will be placed below the cut.

New Musical (Eventual) Obsession

right now, im still stuck on Gaga, but you can thank her for my latest fascination with electro-pop. while on a search for album reviews, i stumbled upon a picture of little boots, and decided to check her out. AND shes awsome. on youtube, she posts performances of all her songs, along with some covers, using this cool little instrument called the tenorion.

check out her myspace for a couple songs or go to her youtube channel. shes not currently on itunes and i have no idea if she has a cd out. shes based in london, so if u live there maybe shes on that version of itunes? also shes on radio 1 live lounge tomorrow.

this is so low brow.

in case you thought bureaucracy didnt exist in the entertainment industry, well...youre an idiot. now, however you feel about gay relationships being on tv, there are some things that just aren't right.

for those who have watched greys for the past season, you know they have taken a new direction with two female characters. that direction led straight to weirdville last week, but regardless, television is a creative outlet, and a show should show something that feels realistic, although in theory you are watching something fake.

the actress who plays character erica hahn has been fired from greys anatomy. for no other reason than what show creator shonda rhimes has written for her character.

although the plotline is not something that everyone is going to be comfortable with, it seriously is not something you need to fire someone over. end the plot arc! television has been breaking down barriers and changing cultural mores for decades.

low, abc, very low. this show is on its way out. it used to be groundbreaking.
