by

The search is on for an additional Pussycat Doll coutesy of the CW network. True to the trend, it has been made into a reality TV show. You don’t get to see a whole bunch of girls auditioning before being narrowed down to 1 “American Idol” style. You get something more like “America’s Next Top Model” complete with melodrama.

Is there really a need for an additional Pussycat Doll? Most wfans would say absolutely not! The current group seems pretty good already. They make great eye candy. They can sing and they can dance. They appeal to both the men and the women. So far the show seems like a soap opera with a catfight (maybe more than 1) brewing in the wings.

The judges of the show include Robin Antin – who formed the band, Ron Fair – chairman of Greffen Records, and L’il Kim. Nicole Scherzinger, lead singer of the Pussycat Dolls, shows up to judge the first round.

Timbalake Wants To Hold Britney’s Hand

Britney Spears was once the pop princess. Thanks to her biological clock, marriage, 2 kids and apparently bad taste in habits plus alcohol, Britney’s popularity and once glorious career has taken a sharp nose dive.

Rapper and producer Timbaland wants to help Britney revive her music career. He says, “I feel her pain, it really bothers me. I’m the type of person who tries to save the world. I just want to take her away, go overseas, and work it out”. He has even asked Justin Timberlake if he’d be willing to help out; to which JT replied that he would do so only if Britney were serious about doing it.

He may just be the man to get Britney’s career back on top too. Timbalake has produced many hits for various artists including number one hits for Justin Timberlake and Nelly Furtado. If the Sexyback producer can indeed help Britney get back in the zone, her fans will really be happy.

In the meantime, Britney Spears is still in rehab. All going well, she’ll hopefully complete the course this time and come out clean and sober and back on track.

Britney Goes Bald

Bald Britney Spears.jpg
Britney Spears has been trying very hard to stay in the public eye. She knows that being seen around about or in the papers, tabloids and gossip rags that the papparazzi work for or supply pictures too. Britney has been seen without her knickers while out on the town with Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan, dancing and stripping at various Las Vegas clubs and now, she has gone bald.

Yes it was a surprise to almost everybody. No one expected the pop princess to go and get rid of her hair. It is a very drastic move and it makes Britney appear very stressed.

Britney’s new look was discovered when she was on her way to the “Body and Soul” tattoo shop. Britney had two tattoos placed. The first one is on her wrist and the other on her lower hip.

People are wondering if she is close to having a nervous breakdown. She’s been acting wild since she filed for divorce. It sure looks that way to her fans.

My Grammy Moment From An Idol reject

by

Talk about irony, last year’s Grammy Awards show suffered in the ratings because their network chose to pit the show in a head to head battle with American Idol. This year they opted to taje another time slot which was great and they had their own little Americon Idol like competition. They called it My Grammy Moment and the winner got to perform on stage with Justin Timberlake at this year’s Grammys. Here’s where the irony comes in: the winner of the My Grammy Winner is an American Idol reject.

As the winner, Robyn Troup did get her moment of fame with Sexy Back Star Timberlake on Sunday. On Tuesday the episode of American Idol which was taped before the Grammys aired showing that she was rejected by American Idol.

Take heart though Robyn. Being rejected by the judges of American Idol does not mean the end of your career. Look at Jennifer Hudson. She beat out her American Idol batchmate and winner Fantasia Barino for the part that gave her her Golden Globe and her Oscar.

James Brown.jpgAnd the world is poorer for his loss yet better for having had him for the short time that he was with us. James Brown was a legend indeed.

James Brown’s music inspired many a rapper and hip hop artist. He paved the way for the likes of Michael Jackson and Prince. He was a lively, energetic man until the day he passed away. He truly was performing almost to the last day of his life.Not even being ill got him down. Even as he entered the hospital this past Saturday, he was planning a New Year’s performance.

The godfather of soul, as James Brown called himself in his autobiography, was brought to the Emory Crawford Long Hospital with pneumonia Saturday. He passed away of heart failure at around 1:45 am on Christmas Day.

James Brown will always be remembered in his music. He really got all of us with his unique funky sound exactly as his song “I Got You (I Feel Good)” says.
