Jay-Z Joins Beyonce at Sound of Change
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Collaborations, Concerts / Tours, Performances, Hip-Hop & Rap, Pop, R&B / Soul,
Beyonce was joined on-stage by husband Jay-Z at the Sound of Change concert last night. The couple - who together have a 16-month-old daughter Blue Ivy - performed their huge hit "Crazy In Love" much to the delight of the crowd at London's Twickenham Stadium. They even shared a kiss on stage in front of the adoring fans at the show in aid of The Chime For Change charity which funds education, health and justice projects for women.
Appropriately opening her set with "A Change Is Gonna Come," the superstar led the crowd through a set filled with hits like "If I Were A Boy" and "Single Ladies." She also paid tribute to the late Whitney Houston - which was also done on her Mrs. Carter Show World Tour - saying, "We will always love you, Whitney" during a performance of "I Will Always Love You." Beyonce then brought her headline performance to an end with the ever-powerful "Halo," closing a hugely successful event.

Mumford and Sons: Glastonbury Is a Risk

Mumford and Sons aren't sure they can compete with The Rolling Stones at Glastonbury and admit the festival appearance is a big "risk."
The "I Will Wait" band see headlining the world renowned event as the biggest "gamble" they've ever taken, and aren't sure if they can live up to the legacy of their co-headliners - who have been touring for 50 years.
"It's a really huge deal to headline Glastonbury; we're a young band with only two records behind us. This summer is probably the biggest risk we've ever taken," frontman Marcus Mumford said.
Banjo player Winston Marshall added, "I've seen The Stones play for three hours and the crowd knew every song. It's what you want in a headline slot at a festival. I'm scared because it feels like a gamble. We don't know if we've earned it yet or not."
Bass player Ted Dwayne also admits he's getting nervous in the run up to their closing festival slot on Sunday June 30: "The other night was the first time I visualized the [main] Pyramid Stage in my head. I hadn't made that connection before, and it actually real, it's really, really scary."

Bon Jovi have added new dates to their world tour.
The rockers have extended their Because We Can gigs in the US and Canada due to popular demand, and will be returning to Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Dallas, Toronto and Montreal in the autumn as well as visiting some brand new cities. The summer tour begins on July 12 in Chicago, culminating on July 27 in Rutherford, New Jersey.
The "Livin' On A Prayer" chart-toppers will take a well-earned break before hitting the road again, performing in Vancouver on October 2 and wrapping things up on November 8 in Montreal.
The band seem to be coping well despite the shock departure of guitarist Richie Sambora last month, who bowed out of their tour after failing to perform at a date in Calgary, Canada. Frontman Jon Bon Jovi incurred Richie's wrath when he appeared to reference Richie's last rehab stint for alcohol abuse in 2011, when he missed 13 shows, as the reason for his departure. The guitarist hit back, asking Jon to "stop with the trash talking."

Beyonce Slapped by Fan at Copenhagen Show

Beyonce was slapped on the butt by a male fan during her show in Denmark last night.
The 31-year-old singer was performing her track "Irreplaceable" at the Forum Copenhagen in a segment of her Mrs. Carter Show World Tour where she interacts with the audience as she struts on a catwalk. After handing her microphone to different fans to sing-a-long with the track she turned to go back to the main stage when the admirer outstretched his arm out to touch her bottom.
In video footage capturing the moment, Beyonce is seen turning around and looking shocked as the crowd gasp at the man's action, before she threatens to have him thrown out of the concert. Looking directly at the fan, she can be heard saying, "I will have you escorted out right now, alright?"

Ed Sheeran Hints at More Taylor Swift Collaborations
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Artist News, Collaborations, Concerts / Tours, Gossip, Upcoming Releases, Country, Folk, Pop,
Ed Sheeran has hinted at more collaborations with Taylor Swift.
The Lego House singer is currently on tour with his close pal in the US and after having teamed up previously for their track "Everything Has Changed," featured on her album Red, Ed has indicated there may be more teamwork on his upcoming album.
"My second album has taken shape recently. I don't know if there will be any collaborations on it. You never know. I'm on tour with her for 6 months. I'm sure the guitars will come out at some point. We wrote ["Everything Has Changed"] in June. We went in to write another song for the Red album and then we went to record that other song. The day before we went to record it she invited me around to her house for food and "Everything Has Changed" came out of that."
