LISTEN TO SOLANGE'S SANDCASTLE DISCO

Another track from Solange's sophomore record "SOL-Angel and the Hadley Street Dreams" made its way online via her myspace page.

"Sandcastle Disco" has that orangic '60s Motown sound she spoke about recently in "Sister 2 Sister" magazine.

In the latest issue of "Us Weekly", Solange admitted that a record lablel approached her and Ashlee Simpson to form a girl group nearly seven years ago.

"We're good friends," recalls Solange. The girls were sent to Disneyland to bond, but they already knew the musical pairing wasn't meant to be. "We just wanted a free trip," explains the singer. "She's this rocker chick. I'm this reggae Rasta chick. What the hell were we gonna sing about? It was mad cheesy." In the end, they agreed: "Let's just tell them no - and thanks for the the $200 in room service."[US WEEKLY]

Solange and newly engaged Ashlee are now labelmates as they are both signed onto Geffen Records. The Texas-bred singers both have new material coming out before the end of the Summer so who knows what might happen?

Are you loving Solange's new song or not?

News on Usher and Beyonce

Latest updates on R&B singers Usher and Beyonce.
As seen on Contact Music:
ASHLEE SIMSPON FOLLOWS USHER'S CHICAGO RUN!

Ashlee Simpson has finally signed on to play murderous vixen Roxie Hart in the London run of the musical Chicago, a Simpson source exclusively told Star — the first publication to break the official news — Monday morning. Then, when contacted by Star, Chicago producer Barry Weissler, confirmed, "Yes, it is true. Ashlee Simpson is joining the cast of Chicago in London. We are very excited and are looking forward to gauging the London audience reaction." Plus, Star has exclusively learned from the Simpson source that Ashlee kicked off rehearsals for the legendary musical in New York City studio on Monday! The Ashlee-Chicago deal, which was rumored to be in the works in recent weeks, was finalized this past weekend, the Simpson source confirms to Star. Ashlee is slated to begin starring in the musical in October in London's West End. "Ashlee's a dancer; her background is in dance," the source tells Star. "She wants to do live theater. This will put all of those critics to rest. She's always wanted to be on stage, but she got diverted when she started selling so many albums." Meanwhile, the Simpson source tells Star that an official announcement will be made in coming weeks, likely out of London, and that Ashlee will be photographed for the musical's posters in the coming days. Earlier this year, Ashlee attracted attention for having a nose job. Coincidentally, Roxie Hart sings about her nose — and how being a celeb means that everyone is aware of your body parts. In a song from the musical, Roxie Hart, sings: I'm gonna be a celebrityThat meansSomebody everyone knowsThey('re) gonna recognize my eyesMy hair my teeth my boobs my nose Hmm...considering the attention Ashlee received after having her nose resculpted, that must mean she's a full-fledged celebrity!

BEYONCE SLAMS RUMOURS OF RELATIONSHIP PROBLEMS

BEYONCE KNOWLES has slammed rumours one of the tracks on her new album was sparked by relationship problems with boyfriend SHAWN 'JAY-Z' CARTER. Among the angry lyrics in RING THE ALARM, Knowles sings, "Ring the alarm, I've been through this too long, but I'll be damned if I see another chick on your arm." But the CRAZY IN LOVE hitmaker insists the lyric has nothing to do with her personal life with long term boyfriend Carter - the song was inspired by her pent-up frustration after playing down trodden singer DEENA in her upcoming movie DREAMGIRLS. She says, "I'm so not going through that in my life right now, but I have gone through that, and I wanted to make a record that women could relate to."

Lindsay Lohan speaks out on her "real" boobs

I agree with Linds about the tabliod mags sticking it to her about her boobs. She has a point....Ashlee walked away easily denying her nose job.
"It's like when they said I got my chest done and it wasn't true. "(The tabloids) kind of blew off the fact that Ashlee Simpson got a nose job. I've never done anything."
Ok maybe not. Lindsay's boobs are bigger than her body and Ashlee looks as different as Jennifer Gray aka Baby from Dirty Dancing did!!!
