NO MC AND J.LO DUET


Mariah Carey had the following to say when asked about ever recording a duet with Jennifer Lopez:

“I’d rather be on stage with a pig — a duet with Jennifer Lopez and me just ain’t going to happen".

WHEN STARS TAKE A DAY OFF
Okay I had to put this actress on blast for having the boldness to rock this hot mess of a dress at the Cannes Film Festival:


things that make me go hmmm




French actress Firmine Richard arrives for the screening of the film
"Zodiac," at the 60th International film festival in Cannes, southern France, on Thursday, May 17, 2007.


[pic source]
Overheard Hoopla:
1. Contrary to the rumors out there, Andre Benjamin of Outkast is NOT dating Buckeey from "Flavor of Love 2", folks! (I was beginning to wonder how Andre went from the dating the likes of R&B singers Eryah Badu and Keisha Spivey to a reality-TV star.} [A Hot Mess]
2. Speaking of R&B do we really need another R&B male group? Well Tank, Tyrese and Ginuwine think so. TGT will be the name of this supergroup. Word has it these guys are teaming up to produce the ultimate male R&B group since LSG. Be expected to hear a remix to Tank's Please Don't Go with Tyrese and Ginuwine. (I'm just excited to learn Ginuwine's coming back to music.) [MTV News]

3. Alongside soul legend Patti LaBelle, R&B singer Ciara will be starring in her fist lead role on the big screen. [SOHH]
4. The Fugees breaks up once again due to Lauryn Hill according to Pras: “You know, unfortunately Miss Hill, she got some things she needs to deal with. I wish her the best, but life goes on.” Okay time for me to pop in my jacked up copy of "The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill" to hold me over until the Fugees come back again. DAMN!

Kelly Osbourne, Amelle Berrabah and Keisha Buchanan at Instyle Magazine Best Beauty Awards.
Kelly Osbourne
loves the trench coat!

Am I the only one wishing for Kelly to record another album?! Okay I really love her Madonna tribute song, 'Papa Don't Preach' a lot. (Between you and I, Ashley Simpson seriously swagger jacked Kelly's singing style....but I'm just saying.)
Amelle Berrabah and Keisha Buchanan of Sugababes
Amelle Berrabah and Keisha Buchanan of Sugababes
Quick info on Keisha:
'In late 2006, after the release of the single "Easy", Buchanan announced her plans to leave the Sugababes and launch a solo career. She added, however, that the group was only taking a short hiatus, and said she admired the move of Beyonce Knowles in leaving Destiny's Child and then returning to the group. ' {Wikipedia}

Listen to The Game bragging about this here.


New Music

From John Legend
John's 3rd Single off sophomore album "Once Again"
-----P.DA. (We Just Don't Care).

His style and sound is very refreshing. I enjoy the fact there's not girl shaking her assswaying her hips to the beat. John's got another hit on his hands. Looooves it!
Click here for some crisp videocaps from this music video.
John Legend in PDA We Just Dont Care
Listen to 'P.D.A (We Just Don't Care) here

Favorite line from John Legen's P.D.A We Just Don't Care: "I don't care about propriety / Let's break the rules / Forget society."
From MIMI
Okay so I admit I never heard about this artist until today when I finally caught '106 & Park' last night. His single is currently on the 7th spot on the urban countdown. At first I thought he was Rich Boy. (No disrespect to Rich Boy fans.)

WATCH "This Is Why I'm Hot" (Video)


LISTEN "This Is Why I'm Hot" (audio)

[shout out to Roberto for the links!]
Look out for his debut record, 'Music is My Savior' to drop April 3rd.

MIMS on what to expect from his music:
"As an artist I want people to expect the unexpected," he says. "Don't
think for one minute that I am going to come this way all the time.
You'll hear one record and go wild - 'Wow. He did that?' I want people to
listen to the album and expect the unexpected because this is only the
beginning. It is going to get better than this."

Show MIMS some myspace love:
