In addition to “The Climb” and “See You Again,” the 16-year-old performed “Kicking and Screaming” and “Party in the U.S.A”—two tracks available on her new CD, The Time of Our Lives.

Quote of the Day: Natalie Portman on Obscene Hip-Hop
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Gossip, Hip-Hop & Rap,
“Really, really obscene hip-hop. I love it so much. It makes me laugh and then it makes me want to dance. Those are like my two favorite things, so combined . . . I’ve been listening a lot lately to “Wait (The Whisper Song)” by the Ying Yang Twins, where the lyrics are like, ‘Wait ’til you see my d***—which is just amazing because it’s whispered. [whispers] “Wait ’til you see my d*** . . . ” [laughs] Crazy. So I just listen to it like I’m a five-year-old, like, ‘Oh my god! I can’t believe he just said that!’”
-Natalie Portman talking to Jake Gyllenhaal about her current musical preferences for Interview magazine.

Chris Brown Ordered to Avoid Rihanna Until Probation Ends
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Artist News, Hip-Hop & Rap,
Chris Brown has now been formally sentenced for his assault to Rihanna. Both musicians, the couple created nationwide headlines when the incident occurred. Brown was charged with, and pled guilty to, a felony charge for his actions.
As a result, Brown will serve five years’ worth of probation and six months of community service. This seems a pretty light sentence, considering the public outcry which stemmed from the February incident. Brown recently issued a statement of apology to his fans and the world at large for his actions. For the duration of his probation, Brown must stay at least 100 yards away from Rihanna at all times.

Attention all you female singers: you might as well give up right now. Beyonce Knowles has got the race locked up.
Although we’re only 8 months into the current year, Billboard has already declared the “Single Ladies” star their Woman of the Year. In fact, they’ll be presenting her the award in October.
The Grammy winner’s selection was based on a number of factors. In addition to releasing one of the catchiest songs ever (and a successful album overall), the singer-dancer-actress has “inspired the music business with her success, leadership and new ideas.” Knowles has also generously given to the community by offering free concert tickets to financially-strapped families and helping to provide meals through Feeding America.

In the past year, Tionne Watkins (a.k.a T-Boz) has kept herself busy with appearances on both The Celebrity Apprentice and The Real Housewives of Atlanta. Now she has an even bigger project in store.
Later this fall, the musician will reunite with another former TLC member for a concert in Vegas. The show with Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas will be their first in the US since 2002.

Jason Mraz Sets New Billboard Record
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Artist News, The Charts, Pop,
Having trouble getting Jason Mraz’s “I’m Yours” out of your head? It seems you are not the only one.
Despite debuting over a year ago (May 3, 2008) and only peaking at #6 on the Hot 100, the song still has a lot of life. Now, after 70 weeks on that Billboard chart, the Grammy-nominated tune has broken the record previously set by LeAnn Rimes. (“How Do I Live” ended it’s 69-week run in 1998.)
“I’m Yours” is also the first tune to top each of these four radio-based charts: Mainstream Top 40/Pop Songs, Adult Contemporary, Adult Top 40, and Triple A.

An old interview with John Lennon has recently come to light, revealing that there might have been a great deal of animosity among the post-breakup Beatles members. In an interview with Rolling Stone’s Jann Wenner, Lennon unleashed some anger toward former band mates.
“We got fed up with being sidemen for Paul [McCartney],” says Lennon at one point. He also said the “music died” in the group and that “we never improved,” which I think plenty of critics would argue with.
