One Direction Annoyed by Album Leak
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Leaks, Upcoming Releases, Pop,
One Direction is "annoyed" that their album Midnight Memories has leaked online.
The boy band's third studio album is set for release on November 25, but tracks emerged on the internet yesterday, and they are concerned it will affect record sales.
"It is annoying because there's this big build-up and it affects sales. We really want a number one, so we're just kind of hoping for the best now. Hopefully people go out and buy it," Liam Payne said.
Louis Tomlinson is also frustrated and would rather people wait until the official release. "It's just frustrating when you work so hard on an album and you kind of want everyone to hear it at the same time. Some select fans won't listen to it until it's out, which is great. But there are others who obviously can't help themselves," he added.

Lily Allen to Perform at Glastonbury

Lily Allen will perform at Glastonbury 2014.
The "Hard Out Here" singer - on the comeback trail after initially quitting music in 2011 - is the first high profile artist to confirm she has been booked for the iconic British festival, which will take place in June next year.
"I'm playing Glastonbury. It's official. I got the news yesterday. You can catch me, I'm doing an acoustic session at the Stone Circle on Sunday night," she said, speaking on BBC Radio 1 this morning.
Lily is a regular visitor to Glastonbury festival and usually attends even if she is not performing, although it is not the only festival she will be playing next summer. "I'll be doing 16 weeks of festivals over the summer and then tour," she added.
The 28-year-old star is about to release her third album, but admits it was harder to make than her first two, because she now has daughters Ethel, who turns two next week, and Marnie, ten months, with husband Sam Cooper: "At first it was really, really difficult because I was pregnant when I was making it [her new album], with my second baby. For a long time I found it really difficult and it wasn't until I stopped breastfeeding that I started to connect with myself again, so it was hard, much harder than it has been in the past."
Madonna Wins “Vogue” Lawsuit

Madonna has won a lawsuit over her track "Vogue."
The "Music" singer's 1990 track was subject of a court case brought by VMG Salsoul, who claim producer Robert "Shep" Pettibone illegally sampled two horn hits from the 1983 track "Love Break" by the Salsoul Orchestra, a track which was, in turn, a remix of their 1976 song "Chicago Bus Stop."
VMG Salsoul claimed new technology enabled them to prove the horns were a sample when they filed the lawsuit earlier this year. Further complicating matters, Robert was the person who remixed "Love Break." The judge eventually decided it didn't matter whether the horns were a sample or not, as he ruled in Madonna's favor, saying the average listener would not notice.
"Having listened to the sound recordings of 'Chicago Bus Stop,' 'Love Break,' and 'Vogue,' the court finds that no reasonable audience would find the sampled portions qualitatively or quantitatively significant in relation to the infringing work, nor would they recognize the appropriation. The Court finds that any sampling of the horn hit was de minimis [sic] or trivial," Californian District Judge Beverly O'Connell said in her ruling.

Quote of the Day: Taylor Swift on Songwriting, Exes

"I only write songs about crazy love. If I go on two dates with a guy and we don't click, I'm not writing a song about that. It didn't matter in the emotional grand scheme of things. There's a lot that goes on in daily life that isn't really worth turning into a verse and a chorus... I heard from the guy that most of Red is about. He was like, 'I just listened to the album, and that was a really bittersweet experience for me. It was like going through a photo album.' That was nice."
- Taylor Swift reveals that she doesn't write a song about every guy she hooks up with, which is what apparently most folks believed. (Shocker!)

Ylvis : Miley Cyrus Needs Controversy
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Gossip, Performances, Pop,
Ylvis believe Miley Cyrus will "kill" her career if she stops the controversial on-stage stunts.
The Norwegian popstars - who shot to international fame after their music video "The Fox" achieved over 200 million views on YouTube - put 20-year-old Miley's success down to her attention-seeking antics. The comedians turned pop duo - made up of brothers, Vegard and Bård Ylvisåker - performed alongside the "Wrecking Ball" singer at this year's EMA's where she lit a suspicious looking cigarette on stage during her acceptance speech.
"Poor girl she has to. Every other journalist on the red carpet asked us, 'What do you think she's going to do this year to provoke?' I mean if she doesn't do anything it's going to kill her. It will probably kill her anyway," Vergard joked, speaking exclusively to BANG showbiz about the singer's recent performances.

Kanye West to Feature Kim in “Bound 2” Video

Kanye West is tipped to feature Kim Kardashian in his new video.
The rapper will premiere new visuals for his latest single "Bound 2" on the Ellen DeGeneres Show and the show's website suggested his fiancee - with whom he has daughter North West - "may or may not" make an appearance when the video streams exclusively on Ellentv.com on Tuesday.
The love song features R&B singer Charlie Wilson and is the second track to be released from Kanye's Yeezus album, which debuted at No.1 on the US Billboard 200 in May. "Bound 2" received general acclaim from critics, with the track's soul sample-based production often being compared to Kanye's early work from his debut studio album The College Dropout in 2004.
The news comes after American singer Ronnie Spector recently described Kanye West as "a d**k," but admitted that she favored his fiancee, Kim. Ronnie - who previously fronted the girl-group The Ronettes - told Noisey.com, "I am not a fan of Kanye West. I don't mind Kim, but I just don't like that guy. I'm not a fan of how he speaks. He's a d**k. I'm sorry. I don't like him. I'm just being honest."

Lady Gaga has topped the UK charts with her album ARTPOP.
The "Applause" singer scored yet another number one with her latest release, following her previous works The Fame and Born This Way which all took the top spot.
Gaga's success means she has pushed back Eminem's comeback effort Marshall Mather's LP 2 into second place after the album's second single "Monster" featuring Rihanna landed a number one earlier this month. According to the Official Charts Company, the 27-year-old singer also beat off stiff competition from Celine Dion, whose Loved Me Back To Life sits at number three while Little Mix second studio album Salute entered the charts at number four.
Meanwhile, Martin Garrix topped the singles chart with his debut "Animals." The 17 year old Dutch DJ beat out Lily Allen, whose cover of Keane's "Somewhere Only We Know" - featured in John Lewis' Christmas ad - came in at Number Two. The original version of the song also re-entered the chart at Number 29.
