Listen up, American Idol wannabes. This is exactly how you “make a song your own.”
While covers of Beyonce songs aren’t an entirely new thing these days (you may/may not want to listen to Liza Minnelli’s version of “Single Ladies” here), good interpretations are still a joy to hear.
Never thought “If I Were a Boy” could be turned into a country hit? Well, then Reba McEntire - with this performance for CMT’s Unplugged - is about to prove you wrong.

Concert promoter Live Nation is having a very bad week.
First, Christina Aguilera announces she’ll be postponing her tour until sometime 2011. Now, U2 is delaying their gigs as well.
The official announcement comes just days after learning that Bono had emergency surgery on his back in Munich, Germany. Although it had already been announced that the band’s stop in Salt Lake City would be rescheduled, the remaining cities in the group’s North American leg will now have to wait as well.

Christina Aguilera Concert Tour Postponed
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Artist News, Concerts / Tours, Music Videos, Pop,
Christina Aguilera said she’s been doing things that she “normally won’t do” - and this might apply.
Although the singer was set to begin a 20-city tour on July 15, Aguilera has decided to postpone those stops until sometime next year.
While most have been blamed lukewarm response to her single “Not Myself Tonight” for the delay (the song currently stands at #89 on the iTunes chart), Live Nation claims the singer is simply too busy.
“[Aguilera] felt she needed more time to rehearse the show and with less than a month between the album release and tour date, this wasn’t possible,” the concert promoter said in a statement.
