The Rise And Fall Of Britney Spears: Who’s To Blame?

Posted by David Onda Categories: Editorial, Features, Gossip, Internet, News

The Evolution of Britney Spears

Forget about and . The year 2007 belonged to . And not in a, “Hey, Britney Spears is the sexiest women alive and sold a lot of records” kind of way. No, it’s more like, “Hey, Britney Spears split from her back-up dancer husband, had her disgusting hoo-ha and c-section scar plastered all over the internet, shaved all her hair off, lost custody of her children and had a comeback performance/album that bombed.” Yeah, she’s had that kind of year. And frankly, I’m pretty freakin’ tired of seeing her face every time I turn on the TV or go online and having to listen to every step of the “Britney custody saga” reported as legitimate news.

This woman is a disaster. Let’s make that point very clear from the outset. She is clearly a very unstable woman in need of some very serious help, and she’s not getting it. And now that it’s being reported that yet another member of the Spears clan has her tin-roof rusted, I think we need to take a step back and take a look at the big picture. Who is really to blame for the downfall of one of the biggest names and faces in, not only music, but pop culture as a whole? Who is responsible for the destruction of Britney Spears?

Michael Jackson Makes Another Wacko Appearance

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Gossip, Rumors

Michael Jackson's new lookLifelong pop superstar has recently been spotted sporting a face covered with bandages. I know, big deal, right? The man’s gone under the knife more times than his albums have gone platinum, but in this case the Jackson camp is remaining tight-lipped regarding Jacko’s coverings.

Michael was seen covered in gauze (I mean, completely) while shopping in Las Vegas - an odd act that for Jackson is hardly even considered weird. I mean, we’ve seen worse, right? But Jackson’s rep can give no answers as to why the star is keeping his face incognito, saying that Jackson hasn’t had any surgical procedures lately.

What, you mean there isn’t a plastic surgeon on site at Neverland Ranch? That’s the most surprising Jackson news of all.

‘American Idol’ Says No to Britney Spears

American IdolThe upcoming season of American Idol promises a few changes and some never-before-seen additions to the show, but pop princess Britney Spears will not be one of them.

The show’s executive producer announced earlier this week that he does not believe Spears is in good enough condition to be a mentor to the aspiring hopefuls on Idol. “I think she needs to get herself together,” said executive producer Lythgoe. He did say, however, that he would have welcomed Spears on the FOX show last season, when it seemed she might be getting herself (and her career, and her personal life) back together again.

If the hopefuls could command media attention the way Spears does, they wouldn’t need reality TV.

Will J.Lo and Epic Records Part Ways?

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Music, Gossip, Rumors

Jennifer Lopez in VersaceRumor has it that may soon be in the market for a new record label, as sources purportedly close to Epic Records say the diva’s album sales aren’t doing well. Couple sinking sales with the expenses related to Lopez promotions, and you’re looking at one angry label. According to the source, her last album cost over $60,000 – for the cover alone.

Epic absorbs the cost of Lopez’s promotional expenses as well, which supposedly cost $8,000 in makeup per appearance. Are you flipping kidding me? Eight large on makeup for a woman that everyone already thinks is hot? No wonder Epic is tired of J.Lo’s epic spending.

VH1’s Surprising New Show

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Music, Reality, Cable, Gossip

VH1 LogoTaking a page out of A&E’s book, VH1 has reunited former pop/R&B legends Salt ‘N’ Pepa. The trio (which once included Spinderella) enjoyed mega success with hits like “What a Man,” “Push It,” and “Let’s Talk About Sex.” Then, suddenly, Salt ‘N’ Pepa vanished. In case anyone was wondering what happened to them, now you’ve got the chance.

VH1 is the esteemed power behind such shows as America’s Most Smartest Model, and don’t forget this is the cable network that brought us Flavor Flav. But don’t let that turn you off Salt ‘N’ Pepa, because you probably couldn’t avoid them even if you tried.

In a rare and surprising twist for VH1, actual musical performers (and get this-–music) are being featured on the new show. Some of the scenes between these former best friends are surprisingly touching and heartfelt, and viewers get a real sense of how very different these two spicy performers are. Salt is a mother and attends church, regularly performing gospel versions of her former hit songs. Pepa is also a mother but still loves being sexy, throwing herself into each performance with the energy fans once loved.

Haven’t seen the debut episode? Never fear-–VH1 is running it repeatedly, a pleasant change from shows like I Love New York and Rock of Love.
