Loving Amerie

Loving Amerie

Amerie joined Rihanna and many others at Entertainment Weekly’s Annual Must-List Party at Gotham Hall in New York on Thursday. The 29-year old half-Korean, half-African American singer has an album coming out later this summer. The album is entitled ‘Because I Love It’.

And love it we shall. The release of the album made Blender magazine’s list of 25 Reasons to Love ’07. It ranked in at number 19.

But apart from music, Amerie is a geek at heart. She reveals that she is addicted to The Sims video game and that she thinks it’s seriously cool to live a virtual life. It may be dorky but she’s got Kelly Rowland into it. She tried to reel in Beyonce too but she didn’t bite.

Oh well. We still love her.

Salt n Pepa are Baaaaaack!

“Salt n Pepa are Baaaaaack!”

Let’s hear it for the female rappers of the world. But move over new babes, because one of the originals is reuniting. And they’re showing everyone how every step of the way.

VH1 announced that they have picked up ‘The Salt ‘n’ Pepa Show’, a ten-part series that would premiere later in the year.

In a press release by VH1 that served as a teaser for the show, it’s obvious that it would be interesting… for what fans of Salt ‘n’ Pepa exist.

“On ‘The Salt ‘n’ Pepa Show,’ VH1 will follow the ladies as they attempt to reunite on and off the stage in this funny, often touching reality series. They soon discover however, that achieving this is easier said than done since most of their past issues are still unresolved. Salt is angry about being unappreciated when they were together and Pepa blames Salt for breaking up the group. Their lifestyles are also polar opposites: Salt has indeed found God and is living a quiet life in Long Island with her husband while Pepa is still the party girl and up for anything. Can they overcome their differences long enough to heal their friendship and perform again?”
