International superstar, Beyonce, is heading back into the studio to work on her fourth solo album. She may have appeared to been on hiatus but the pop diva has plenty of projects leading up to her new music to keep fans happy in the meantime.
Recently, Beyoncé talked about her upcoming album to “Entertainment Tonight.”
“I love to dance, I love to sing, and I’m actually in the studio now writing songs and producing. I have a lot of live instruments that I’m putting into the tracks to try to change the sound and make my own genre of music.”

Rihanna had a lovely interview with Ed Lover where she talks about everything from getting waxed, to her relationship with Drake, her most hurtful rumors, to hating blogs and the people behind computers *slams breaks*. Such a positive interview that turned unnecessarily negative. You can listen to the full interview below or skip to 18:25 mark.
It’s a community for people who…not only don’t have anything else to do, but they hate themselves. They hate their life; they hate their job; they hate their appearance. They are uncomfortable with who they are so what makes them feel good is talking smack about other people; other people who they think they will never ever see in their life who happen to be celebrities. It seems impossible…to ever have the opportunity to say these things to their face, so they get to hide behind their computer.

Says the celebrity hiding behind the radio. So let me get this straight, If you think Rihanna isn’t a great singer or if you think her new “loud” hair she’s promoting for her album sales looks like Ronald McDonald the clown, then you hate yourself. Continue Reading…
Kanye West is mad at the Today Show for there theatrics, but I am mad at Kanye West for his. First of all George Bush is using Kanye West as an escape goat. I can name several other low points of his administration other than the comments from a rapper on a telethon. Secondly, Kanye West didn’t call him a racist, he said, “Gorge Bush didn’t care about black people.” We all felt the same at the time.
Now on to Kanye West, there is a gap between the way he views his actions and the way his actions come across. He is constantly explaining himself to the media, but he’s constantly being misrepresented, or so he says. Kanye West is upset with Matt Lauer and the Today Show because when they asked him about Taylor Swift and George Bush, they played a clip of the incident while he was giving his explanation. A clip so that the audience, as well as Kanye West can see what he’s responding, too. Well this annoyed Kanye West so much that he had to say something about it, while telling the camera crew to be quiet so he can talk.
There are people that are always victims, and Kanye West is always a victim. Continue Reading…
Bloggers need to stop promoting some of these celebs all together. I hardly ever hear a star talk about the great things blogs have done for them or their career. So often blogs are bashed for being negative, yet, the celebs eat up all the free publicity blogs provide. I just find it ironic that celebs hate when blogs talk about the tacky fashion their trying to push on us, but then turn around and bash blogs for the tacky coverage of their tacky fashion.
Anyway, Kanye West is once again tooting his own horn, and going in on blogs for talking about his fashion choice. According to Kanye West blogs are trying to beat him into “regularness”. Watch the video, because Kanye West hits on some pretty important topics in music.
After this past mid-term election cycle anything is possible. Jay-Z says give him eight years and maybe he will be our first “real” black President. Not saying that President Obama isn’t black, “real” as in being the first President from the hood and “‘real” as in another name that rhymes with Jigga. On the subject of running for President, Jay-Z told BBC Radio 1 Newbeat:
Give me a chance…Maybe in eight years, I’ll be the President.
When discussing President Obama, Jay-Z stands by his President Is Black’s side:
I thought the new Kanye West was going to be a little less vocal, but no, he’s still the same Runaway lyrics. After finally seeing the leaked pictures, I can understand why he’s a little cocky. Moving on! Kanye West had an interview with Funkmaster Flex on Hot 97 in NYC where he cleared the air on a few questions:
When asked about his album cover where he has a Phoenix like image of Amber Rose with a feather in a place where the sun doesn’t shine, he was real slick when he let it be known he was chilling with his ex-fiancee when he thought of the idea:
“It was disappointing to me because… I was chilling with my ex-fiance about three months ago—Alexis, because we’re still good friends—and she was like, ‘You’re very ‘70s right now, just your whole vibe, when the artistry was on that level’… It’s a level of purity that I feel like has been tainted. For my kids, if it’s proper art I would definitely allow them to see that. I was in fourth grade painting nude women.”
When asked about the Runaway video and Amber Rose, Kanye West takes another swipe at Amber Rose saying she was a spur of the moment rock-star type of thing:
“She definitely was an inspiration for me… You have to realize in my situation with the ups and downs that I’ve been through, the losses, the ups, just everything, sometimes you make decisions like, ‘I’ma just do this one right here. I’m try this one.’ It’s proper rock star sh*t! Sometimes people get married in a week.”
Finally when asked about his peen pics being leaked, he was upset, but for the wrong reasons. Continue Reading…
