Actress Jessica Biel has taken to singing on the soundtrack for new movie, “Easy Virtue”. She sings “Mad About The Boy”.

She sounds way better than fellow actress, Scarlett Johansson, but that’s not really saying much, is it? Think her and boyfriend Justin Timberlake will do a duet? Or should she even bother?

Dr. Dre’s ‘Detox’ Delayed For Eminem
by Roberta Ferguson on May.25, 2009, under articles
Dr. Dre put his long-awaited album, “Detox’, on the backburner so that he could produce Eminem’s “Relapse” record.

Dre pushed back “Detox” to help Em with “Relapse” and 50 Cent with his latest effort, “Before I Self Destruct”.
Eminem says, “He’s recorded a lot of material. He was working on his record for a good time period, I would say probably a year, he was working on his record and he basically put that on hold once we got on the road with my record, which I’m extremely grateful for you know.”

by Roberta Ferguson on May.25, 2009, under articles
Lady Sovereign agreed to play a free set at Easy Street Records in Seattle on May 21st. The performance was in support of her new CD.

After performing one song, Lady Sov tells the crowd that it sounds like crap and that she’d take their names for the concert later that evening. The audience member who filmed the video started recording when she stopped singing.
What do you think? It doesn’t seem cool to me that she would cancel after just one song. That doesn’t
Susan Boyle Sings ‘Memories’ On ‘Britain’s Got Talent’ – Video
by Roberta Ferguson on May.25, 2009, under articles
Susan Boyle may have wowed audiences with her version of “Cry Me A River” and “My Heart Will Go On”, but this most recent episode of the show will leave people wondering about our favorite diamond in the rough.

She sang the song “Memories” from Cats, and almost started off with a little bit of a shriek. Don’t get me wrong, though, I still love her voice and want her to succeed.
Check out her performance:
Your thoughts? Whatever happens, just like Adam Lambert, she’s going to have a nice career ahead of her. So what, she had an off-night, it happens, right?

Bikini Girl Katrina Darrell Slams Kara Dioguardi
by Roberta Ferguson on May.22, 2009, under articles
I guess Bikini Girl Katrina Darrell really wants to keep her fifteen minutes going, but seriously, someone should tell her that her time is up.

When she performed “Vision Of Love” by Mariah Carey on the season finale of “American Idol”, Kara DioGuardi came out and showed her up.
Not so, says Darrell, in a new interview.
When asked who has the better body in a bikini, Katrina said, “I’m not 50-years-old and I do spray tan.”
She was then asked what she was thinking throughout Kara’s performance, what was going through her mind? She answered, “Well, at first I’m singing, and I hear this voice and I had no idea where it was coming from. And I’m thinking is that Mariah? Nooooo. It’s not Mariah. Then I realized who it was. And then I didn’t know if I was supposed to keep singing, so I started to sing again, but then they had shut my mic off, and I’m like ‘Oh, well I guess she’s singing.’”
She goes on to say that she didn’t think that American Idol tried to embarrass her, but they tested her. When asked whether or not she thought if Kara should come back next year, she responded that she wasn’t sure why they added a fourth judge in the first place. She added that Kara’s ratings aren’t too good, so we’ll see.
Who do you want to see more of? Kara DioGuardi or Katrina Darrell?
