VIDEO: Pregnant Alicia Keys Falls on Stage
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Performances, Videos, R&B / Soul,
“Fallin’” isn’t just something Alicia Keys sings about. During a performance Saturday night, the 29-year-old worried a crowd in New Orleans when she stumbled backward on stage.
Although falls during concerts seem to be commonplace these days, this incident was slightly different. Alicia is currently expecting her first child with fiance Swizz Beatz.
Fortunately, Keys - who managed to keep on performing without missing a beat - and her unborn child are both reportedly fine.

Glee’s Charice Takes on Shania Twain Song
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Performances, Videos, Covers,
If you don’t regularly watch Oprah Winfrey or Ellen DeGeneres, there’s a very good chance you don’t know who Charice is. But if you’re a fan of Glee, you soon will.
Next fall, the YouTube sensation from the Philippines will join the hit FOX show in a recurring role. It’s been reported the 18-year-old will play a talented foreign exchange student who brings out the jealousy in Rachel Berry (Lea Michele).
After hearing Charice cover Shania Twain’s “Still the One,” I wouldn’t be surprised to see other Glee characters green with envy as well. I only wish Twain could have heard a performance like this one when she mentored American Idol.

VIDEO: Lenny Kravitz’s Impromptu Church Choir Performance
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Performances, Videos, Rock,
This has got to be one of the coolest things we’ve seen in a while.
A Lewisville, Texas choir recently got a nice surprise during their trip to New Orleans. While performing Lenny Kravitz‘s “Fly Away,” the First Baptist Church members attracted a nice crowd - and an appearance from the artist himself.
Lenny, who just happened to be in the area having a drink, heard the music and simply decided he wanted to join in. Fortunately, the Voice of Praise choir singers realized who he was!

Chris Brown Cries for Michael Jackson…or Career?
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Gossip, Performances, Videos, R&B / Soul,
Last night, Chris Brown took one good look at the man in the mirror and what poured out was genuine emotion - or was it?
During his tribute to Michael Jackson at yesterday’s BET Awards yesterday evening, Brown proved he could really dance like Michael Jackson. Rihanna’s ex also tried proving he was sorry at the same time.

VIDEO: Lady Gaga Performs Brand New Song
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Performances, Videos, Pop,
UPDATE: Lady Gaga said in a tweet that the song was “written in NY on the piano” she grew up on.
It wouldn’t be an authentic Lady Gaga performance if the singer didn’t do something to keep the audience on their toes.
During the recent 12th Annual White Tie & Tiara Ball, Gaga chose to introduce a song no one had ever heard before. The record, titled “You and I,” was perfectly suited for an event benefitting the Elton John AIDS Foundation. (Couldn’t you just imagine those two artists playing it together at their own pianos?)
Although Gaga said she didn’t think the “rock ‘n’ roll tune” would ever be released as a single, I actually think it could do quite well. What do you think?

Drake may already be a chart topper with lot of rowdy fans, but that doesn’t mean the rapper couldn’t use songwriting help from time to time.
In this video from Jimmy Kimmel Live, the “Find Your Love” singer teams up with the creative host on an entirely new track inspired by celebrity tweets.
After watching Jimmy Kimmel and Drake perform “Tweet Tweet,” you might find it hard not to “follow” them on their own Twitter accounts (found here and here).

Christina Aguilera: Autotune is Okay with Me
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Artist News, Gossip, Videos, Pop,
I’m sure at one point, Cher never imagined she would ever use something like Auto-Tune on her vocals - but then she scored a huge hit with 1998’s “Believe.” So should we be so shocked to hear that her Burlesque co-star, Christina Aguilera, is open to implementing the technology as well?
Although Christina clearly has no problem performing vocal gymnastics when she sings, the Grammy winner admits she’s not a total purist anymore.
In this interview with Sirius FM Satellite Radio, Aguilera - who used the tool on her new album for songs like “Elastic Love” - says she “doesn’t get annoyed with the Auto-Tune thing, but only if it’s used in a creative way.”
So what do you think about Auto-Tune? Is there really a “creative way” to use it?

American Idols Suck Without Your Ticket Sales
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Concerts / Tours, Gossip, Videos,
Poor ticket sales are forcing season 9’s American Idols into smaller venues. Host Ryan Seacrest is even to promote special deals on his Twitter account, personally schlepping tickets to his 3 million-plus followers.
And we think we know why. If you listen to the terrible, terrible rehearsal performance of Kelly Clarkson’s “My Life Would Suck Without You” in the video above, you might, too.
If you want to remember more tuneful, happier times, you can read all our American Idol 9 posts over on TV Envy.

Matthew Morrison Goes Somewhere Over the Rainbow with Leona Lewis
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Collaborations, Performances, Videos,
We may be used to seeing guest stars on Glee, but we’re not quite used to seeing this.
Wednesday night in London, singer Leona Lewis welcomed a surprise guest onstage during her concert at O2 Arena: Matthew Morrison. The actor, who is currently in the area working on his solo CD, joined Lewis for a rendition of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow.”
Followers of the show know quite well this isn’t the first time Matthew has taken on the classic song. Gleeks recently saw Will Schuester perform it with Puck (Mark Salling) during the season finale. (In the event you missed that cover, you can watch it after the jump.)
