Kelly Clarkson gave the first TV performance of her new single “Mr. Know It All” on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno this past Tuesday. I think the pop singer is back in the US just in time to promote her single because the song is losing places like that on iTunes. While the song is still doing great on radios, I hope that once the music video comes in and she continues her TV run, that “Mr. Know It All” will make its way back up the charts. As for her performance on Leno, Kelly absolutely killed it! Her vocals were hot and she looked stunning in that little number.
Chaz Bono’s decision to join Dancing with the Stars has come under attack. And just like the great mom that she is, Cher protected her son from all the insults. The music icon took to her Twitter saying “Lovelies! Chaz is Being Viciously Attacked on Blogs & Message boards about being on DWTS! This is Still America right? It took guts 2 do it. I support him no matter what he chooses 2do! God! will here always be haters! It took COURAGE 2 do dwts! TG Chaz has Unlimited supply. Can u guys check out sites & give him your support ?

Chaz isn’t exactly the “Gotta Dance Gotta Dance” kinda Guy.” Chaz later showed his appreciation by tweeting “Thanks for all your support mom. The haters are just motivating me to work harder and stay on DWTS as long as I possibly can. I am overwhelmed by the outpouring of support I received from everyone. Thanks so much. I don’t listen to the haters, but embrace the love.”
Demi Lovato delivered a spectacular performance of her single “Skyscraper” on America’s Got Talent earlier this week. The track is the lead single from the pop singer’s upcoming third album called “Unbroken”, which is due out on September 20th. The song managed to top the iTunes Singles Chart and enter the top 10 on Billboard’s Hot 100 recently. It’s such an emotional song, and with the vocals that Demi has, she can afford to show off and make the song even more beautiful during live performances. Dare I say it, she’s the best performer from the whole Hollywood Records roster.

We finally found out which two singers will be battling it out on American Idol season 10’s finale next week. After all the commercials, video packages and guest performances, Ryan Seacrest was handed the envelope, the lights were dimmed and someone was sent home. I was hoping for the top 2 to be Scotty McCreery and Haley Reinhart but after the performance night seeing Haley deal with some of the toughest songs and the judges siding more with Lauren Alaina, I was really nervous about the elimination. And apparently, I had reason to be when Ryan revealed that it was Haley that was going home. They may be touted as the most talented bunch but this season had robbed so many great singers that I’m saying this sucks the most.

Princess of Pop Lady Gaga performed her latest single “Judas” on French TV show “Le Grand Journal” on the night of May 11th (at least where the singer currently is). The “Canal Plus” hit show is being shot this week at a special stage right on the Croisette (boulevard) near the beach in the city of Cannes where the famous film festival happens to be celebrating its opening night on the same day as well. Lady Gaga’s performance was nothing short of epic. The whole landscape and stage just added another layer to it that made it all the more beautiful.

Adam Anders, the executive music producer for “Glee”, has been successful in co-producing over 100 Billboard Hot 100 hits for the hit TV show. Now, he’s looking to capitalize on his success by making his own record label. Adam is currently working on albums by Zac Poor and Ben Burgess, and his first release will be the self-titled debut album of Disney star Shane Harper. When talking about the direction his record label will take, Adam said “I don’t believe in putting out a single and then if it doesn’t hit, drop the artist. We are here to develop artists — there is no timetable to getting it right.” I agree! I think that’s exactly what the music industry needs, a nurturing environment.

Music boss Simon Cowell is reportedly planning to replace David Hasselhoff as a judge on Britain’s Got Talent. The 51-year-old is said to be ‘unimpressed’ with Hasselhoff’s start on the show after joining along with comic Michael McIntyre. A source close to the music mogul said to UK newspaper Sunday Mirror: "He’s not thrilled about the start. He feels that The Hoff hasn’t quite taken off with BGT viewers." It’s claimed he could be lining up Louis Walsh to take over on the hit British talent show. Cowell himself will not appear on the line-up until the live finals.

Simon Cowell believes that the world is in need of something to look forward to, like the royal wedding. The 51-year-old X Factor boss said that watching Prince William and Kate Middleton exchange their vows will be a welcome break from the doom and gloom of recent years. He told Entertainment Tonight, "I think this is exactly the right time. We need something like this at the moment. "It’s been a bit gloomy the last couple of years, so this is going to lift everybody. Everyone’s excited."
The Foo Fighters were the music guests on this past weekend’s episode of Saturday Night Live, which saw Oscar award winning actress Helen Mirren as host. The American rock band took the stage to perform some tracks from their album “Wasting Light”, namely the lead single “Rope” and “Walk”. It was a solid effort and it looks like their appearance on SNL has paid off as their album has since gotten back in the top 10 on the US iTunes. I’ve always been a fan of the Foo Fighters so I’m really happy that they’re garnering success for their current record.

After last week’s unfortunate situation for Casey Abrams and the fact that the judges used their only save of the season for him, this week on American Idol two of the bottom three contestants had to go home. This time around Casey Abrams was safe and the bottom three included Thia Megia, Naima Adedapo and Paul McDonald who was a first timer here. He is going to get another chance at being in the bottom three too because he was the only one that managed to get out while Thia Megia and Naima Adedapo were the sad ones who had to go home. Thus American Idol is still on track with nine more contestants to go and even though two girls got pushed out of the competition, the lead seems to belong to Lauren Alaina for the time being.
Geordie singer Cheryl Cole is in the running to become a judge on the US X Factor, Simon Cowell has said. The music mogul told fans he is still undecided as to who the final two judges on the panel will be. Cowell has already confirmed music producer and executive Antonio ‘L.A.’ Reid, 54, will join him on the panel – leaving two spots for female stars. During a web chat on Twitter yesterday a fan asked if Cole, 27, will join the US version of the talent show. The 51-year-old responded: "Cheryl is in the mix, talking to the network this week, hope to announce the 2 remaining judges very shortly." And Simon also said he wanted to find the next Lady Gaga on the programme. He wrote: "We hope 2 find an artist who can compete with people in the charts. Would love to find the new Lady Gaga. No Rules."
Miley Cyrus poked fun at herself and a few other headline-making celebrities during her opening monologue on Saturday Night Live this past weekend. The Disney singer/actress addressed her previous controversies singing “There’s a photo of me being kissed by some dude and [photographer] Annie Leibovitz trying to get me nude. For those of you who think that’s very crude, I’m sorry that I’m not perfect.” In another verse, she pokes fun at Lindsay Lohan and Tiger Woods, singing “I never stole a necklace or got a DUI. Never cheated on my wife like that golfer guy. So what you can see a little boob from the side? I’m sorry I’m not perfect.” Kristen Wiig and Bobby Moynihan also chimed in, saying “You didn’t make a dirty tape and pass it along. You didn’t text a photo of your dong.” To which Miley replied “Don’t both of these things seem worse than a bong?” Epic. She also did an impersonation of Justin Bieber in a skit.
From the other side of the fence comes Stefano Langone, one of the three lucky contestants who got into the wild card round and even managed to pass it with his rendition of Smokie Norful’s “I Need You Now”. On passing the wild cards and getting into the Top 13, Stefano Langone had this to say: “Man, it was an honor. It really was. There were 23 of us earlier in the day and there’s only 13 of us now. To get the opportunity to go out there and show what I had and work for it was just a blessing. And I was really happy I got to go out there and give it my all and make it happen.” Well the fact that he’s a wild card means that Stefano Langone is going to have to put in a lot more than he has until now if he wants to make it far.
Here is the “American Idol” Top 13 of Season 10:
Scotty McCreery
Pia Toscano
Lauren Alaina
Karen Rodriguez

The highly talented American Idol contestants who simply awed the judges last week with his solo on a stand-up bass has apparently encountered some medical difficulties. It seems that Casey Abrams was hospitalized last night due to severe stomach pain. However, he is supposedly going to be released today and is going to tape his performance on Friday, which means that he probably is among the show’s Top 24. However, it is a rather delicate situation for Casey Abrams since he is among the most favored contestants and if he misses his Friday slot he will get eliminated from the game and it would be a real shame not to see him competing further in the show.
This is one big historic week on the Billboard charts. As of this week, the cast of “Glee” has placed an astounding 113 songs on the Billboard Hot 100 song chart. In the two and a half years that the hit TV show has been making amazing remakes, they have already bested Elvis Presley’s record of 108 for most charted songs by an act in the list’s 52 years. With the show seeming to not have any end coming soon, you can be sure that those numbers are still going to rise. As for this week’s charts, the show bested their own record by charting nine songs in a week, including Lea Michele’s rendition of Katy Perry’s “Firework”. Congratulations to “Glee”!

When it comes to American Idol, perhaps the most interesting part of the audition process comes during the dreaded group round of Hollywood week. While it’s a nightmare for the aspiring singers, it’s a gem to watch for us fans of the reality TV talent show as the pressure cooker of group round forced the remaining 168 contestants to team up with each other, learn a song and choreograph a routine in one night. What follows is a sleepless night filled with tears, cat fights and all around drama. This year was no different. Some couldn’t find groups. There are some who became frustrated with their bossy leaders. One actually decided to swap groups in the middle of the night and another left her teammates hanging as she decided she wasn’t cut out for the competition. What was your favorite moment of the night?
Jane Lynch wants Elton John to star in Glee as her love interest. Her co-star Matthew Morrison put forward the suggestion and Jane said she would be ‘all over it’. She told People, “I love that idea, and I’m all over that idea. From [Morrison's] lips to [executive producer] Ryan Murphy’s ears!” She added that her hard-nosed character Sue Sylvester would be a perfect match for Elton. “Someone Saved My Life Tonight is probably her favourite ballad, so I don’t think he would have any problem,” she added.
Or at least this is his daughter’s opinion… no, not Liv Tyler, his other daughter, Mia Tyler. Apparently she thinks that Steven Tyler is what American Idol has been missing for a very long time. This is what Mia Tyler had to say about her dad being a judge on the show: “He’s the funniest man I know. He’s saving the show because it was kind of boring before. There’s only so many times you can watch Simon be mean to people.” So it’s clear… the fan base is polarized: there are those who couldn’t stand Simon Cowell and those who watched the show just because he was there. Well, Steven Tyler surely is a refreshing change to how the show was being done so far.
Check a few auditions from the American Idol aired last night, there is a new contestant btw she is my favorite named Lauren Alaina, she is AWESOME!

Rumors have come up that starting next season, American Idol fans will finally be able to vote online. Reports of the news have shown up on the reality TV shows gossip sites votefortheworst.com and ainow.org. But when asked about the reports, Fox had no comment. Assuming this is the truth, imagine how many more people will be inclined to vote now. I definitely hope the rumors are true. It will definitely save some money from having to text or call. With all the reported changes to the show, will you be tuning in and voting? I guess we all just have to wait for the kick off.
Four songs were covered on this weeks episode of Glee. Jane Lynch and guest star Carol Burnett made a harmony of Ohio from the 1953 musical Wonderful Town. Two Bruno Mars songs were also featured, namely Just the Way You Are and Marry You. Matthew Morrison also sang the Pablo Beltran Ruiz song Sway, as covered by Michael Buble as well as the Pussycat Dolls. All of the songs were released as singles and available for digital download but Ohio is not featured in the album Glee: The Music, Volume 4. If it wasnt for the Bruno Mars songs, the songs on this weeks episodes would have been graded with a B-, but since the R&B hits are there, I give it an A.
Glee – Marry You
Glee – Just The Way You Are
Glee – Sway
Glee – Ohio

Tila Tequila was recently a casualty at the Gathering of the Juggalos last weekend when audience members threw pretty much everything, including feces, at the reality TV star. She wasnt the only victim though as Method Man was also subjected to the attack. According to sources, he and fellow rapper Redman were performing at the festival on Sunday night when someone in the audience threw what appeared to be a full beer can at Method Mans face, resulting in a pretty nasty wound right by the eye. Redman threw expletives at the crowd before telling Method Man to get the cut looked at, however, he refused to stop the show and continued on performing.

I think that they should have some Gaga skits in there.
