Kelly Osbourne: Put Your Tongue in Your Mouth Miley
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Awards, Gossip, Performances, Pop, R&B / Soul,
Kelly Osbourne wished Miley Cyrus had "put her tongue in her mouth" during her performance at the MTV Video Music Awards.
The 28-year-old star has given her close friend some words of advice following her racy appearance with Robin Thicke at the VMAs on Sunday, which featured her twerking and grinding against Robin during their rendition of his hit "Blurred Lines." Miley, 20, also repeatedly licked her lips as she danced in a two-piece, flesh coloured latex bikini and rubbed herself suggestively with a foam finger.
During a special episode of Fashion Police which aired on Monday night, Kelly's co-stars, including Joan Rivers, criticized Miley's risque appearance - which left many famous faces in the audience at the VMAs, such as Taylor Swift and One Direction star Niall Horan, stunned.
Kelly insisted she loved her pal before offering her words of wisdom, saying, "I look at the performance and yes, I do have a lot of the same opinions as you guys about it ... Look Miley's my friend and I love her, and I have her back no matter what, but as her friend I'm going to tell her - put your f***ing tongue in your mouth! I love you, but just put your tongue in your mouth."

Ciara Served with Lawsuit During Concert
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Artist News, Concerts / Tours, Performances, Rumors, Pop, R&B / Soul,
Ciara is so focused on providing her fans entertainment that she doesn't let anything stop her - not even when she's being served in the middle of her show. Talk about dedication!
While performing a concert in celebration of L.A. Pride, the 27 year-old singer received papers from what she thought was a fan - only to realize that they were legal documents informing her of a lawsuit filed against her. Without hesitating, Ciara quickly threw the papers back at the woman and continued with her performance without having paused for a moment.
The lawsuit - filed by West Hollywood club The Factory - claims that the R&B singer failed to appear for a concert last Friday for which she had signed a $10,000 contract. The club says that Ciara informed them that she couldn't perform due to her obligations with L.A. Pride, but agreed to appearing at the venue - a promise the club claims that she didn't uphold. Ciara's reps say that they had informed The Factory that she would be unable to appear, but they continued to promote her appearance there anyway.

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.

Wyclef Jean Open to New Fugees Album
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Artist News, Gossip, Reunions, Rumors, Hip-Hop & Rap, R&B / Soul,
Wyclef Jean says the "door is always open" to making a new Fugees record.
The singer and producer would like to reunite with former bandmates Lauryn Hill and Pras Michel to follow up their second album The Score, which sold over 10 million copies when released in 1996.
Speaking about a line in his new track, "Hip Hop," where he says he misses currently inactive rap group Outkast, he told Rolling Stone magazine, "What if Outkast did get back together? It's like how people always ask for a new Fugees album. I'm a fan, too. With me, the door is always open to do a Fugees record."
While Wyclef is in the position to reunite the groundbreaking group Lauryn faces difficulties, as she is set to start a three month jail sentence for failing to pay nearly $1 million in taxes next month. Despite her issues, Wyclef is confident they won't affect her, adding, "When she gets out, she'll get her stuff straight and put that past her. Everybody has tax problems - it's how you get past it. Lauryn will come back stronger."

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?"

Lionel Richie Advises Bruno Mars
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Artist News, Gossip, Pop, R&B / Soul,
Bruno Mars seeks advice from Lionel Richie.
The "Grenade" hitmaker is a big fan of the 63-year-old singer and after going to see one of his live shows, he asked the "Hello" star for tips on career longevity. "The new generation are discovering that guys like me can do melodies. Bruno Mars is a killer for melodies and lyrics, and he came to my show. He asked me afterwards: 'Can you tell me how you do it?' and I said, 'Don't worry, you're doing just fine.' These new guys are hungry for longevity. Daft Punk's album shares some of that R&B sound, and they know it's all about writing great songs," Richie said.
Lionel admitted he never expected his songs to stay relevant and was worried about becoming a "laughing stock" with some of his material in the 1970s and 80s: "The words of 'Three Times A Lady' apply in 2013 just as they did in 1978, but at the time disco was happening and I was worried about being a laughing stock."

Prince Signs New Record Deal
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Artist News, Industry News, Pop, R&B / Soul,
Prince has signed a new record deal that will also help promote upcoming talent.
The "Purple Rain" hitmaker - who famously changed his name to an unpronounceable symbol in a row over musical rights with former label Warner - will allow Kobalt Music Group to market and distribute his future work, but won't lose control of his rights. Prince, 54, will also have the opportunity to provide artist development and recording services for Kobalt's newly-signed artists.
"This new venture gives Prince the flexibility and freedom he's always sought in a label partner. We're providing a high level of diverse services that will be particularly customized to his vision for each release, allowing the world to experience more music from Prince and his creative community," Kobalt President Richard Sanders said in a statement.
Traditional labels often take ownership or part-ownership of an artist's material and decide how it is used, but Kobalt - which was established in 2000 - launched an artist and label services division last year, allowing their talent to maintain ownership of their work and control over when, how and where they will release music.

Daft Punk Planning Second Album with Rodgers?
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Artist News, Collaborations, Gossip, Upcoming Releases, Dance, Electronic, Pop, R&B / Soul,
Daft Punk is planning a second album with Nile Rodgers. The French duo - Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter - teamed up with the disco legend for three songs on their new album, Random Access Memories, and he is keen for them to collaborate again on his hoard of unreleased material.
"I recently found a treasure trove of old stuff I wrote years ago that's been hidden in a studio vault. It's unreleased material from the late 70s and early 80s, and it has to see the light of day - especially now I've met producers that I trust like Daft Punk. I already know they'd love to work on some of this music. There's some solo stuff, tracks by Johnny Mathis and Fonzi Thornton, the soundtrack to a film called Alphabet City and Chic recording in Stockholm," Nile said.
