Twilight Saga soundtrack leaps to No.1

Amanda — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 02:24:49 +0000

The soundtrack for The Twilight Saga: New Moon has shot to the top of the US album charts in further testiment to Twilight fever.

The Twilight soundtrack, which is indie-rock in flavour, is expected to keep selling robustly as Michael Jackson’s This Is It soundtrack eventually gains force.

After debuting on the charts at number two last week, the soundtrack sold more than 155,000 copies in three days.

The bands Death Cab For Cutie, The Killers, Grizzly Bear are featured on the album, which does not include anything by series heart-throb Robert Pattinson.

4 Diva CDs

Amanda — Wed, 26 Aug 2009 21:21:30 +0000

It’s going to be a battle of the divas on September 29th as four very different CDs will be available for purchase on that one specific date. Madonna’s latest collection of hits ‘Celebration’, Barbra Streisand’s classic ballad album ‘Love is the Answer’, Mariah Carey’s twice delayed ‘Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel’ and Heidi Montag’s self-titled debut album will all be dropping on that date. Just looking at that list of names and you can already tell which ones are going to sell and which are going to flop. But first, let me rephrase what I said as battle of the divas. It’s battle of the divas and a wannabe. Take your pick.

New Norah Jones

Amanda — Wed, 26 Aug 2009 21:19:28 +0000

After a two year hiatus from the music scene, Norah Jones will be gracing our ears and airwaves with more of her music and it’s being said that it’s going to be different than that jazz stuff that we’re used to when it comes to her. The singer has apparently spent the last 2 years writing and experimenting with new sounds, collaborating with the likes of Ryan Adams, Okkervil River’s Will Sheff, and Jesse Harris. Perhaps the biggest change is that Norah has ditched her piano in favor of the guitar for most of the tracks. The singer talked of the album saying “I knew I wanted to try some different things on this album. I’d been playing with the same musicians for a long time. We’re all still friendly and I hope we play together again, but it felt like a good time to work with new people and experiment with different sounds.” The album is due out in November.

A source has recently come out with the amazing news that Whitney Houston will be gracing her patiently waiting fans with a new album very soon. An insider close to the project says that the singer is in the final recording stages of the album. She’s been working with Harvey Mason Jr. Whitney is also said to be having an album cover shoot scheduled for later this week with legendary photographer Patrick Demarchelier. That’s such great news! I’ve always been a fan of hers. She has been gone for way too long and it’s about time that she shows the rest of the wannabe divas what the word really means.

Christina Aguilera Goes to the Movies

Amanda — Tue, 28 Apr 2009 18:15:19 +0000

Christina Aguilera may be getting an acting gig soon. And not just any acting gig. The 28-year old singer may even end up as the lead actress in an upcoming big screen movie. Christina is in negotiations to play a modern-day dancer in ‘Burlesque’, a movie written by Steven Antin, the brother of Pussycat Dolls founder Robin Antin. Her singing persona definitely supports that role. I wonder if they can get Dita Von Teese to appear in the movie too or at least give Christina some tips. In the meantime, Christina’s anticipated and as yet untitled album is due out this Summer/Fall 2009.

In a recent feature, Rolling Stone called 21st Century Breakdown “even more ambitious than American Idiot” and “a record of die-hard punk ideals…tightly scripted, continually ascending classic-rock excitement.”

Christina Aguilera Talks Albums

Amanda — Thu, 02 Apr 2009 20:30:51 +0000

Christina Aguilera was recently spotted having lunch at LaScala Restaurant before picking up a couple of unmentionables at Agent Provocateur on Tuesday in Beverly Hills, California. The 28-year old singer was wearing her beautiful bejewelled heart necklace which has the inscription of her son Max’s name on it. In other Christina news, the singer is currently recording her fourth studio album, which she describes as “short, sweet and completely different” from her throwback album ‘Back to Basics’. Considering the list of people that she’s working on for her upcoming album, I can just bet that it is different. I just hope she doesn’t try being like Lady Gaga too much.
