Randy Jackson Gives Katharine McPhee a Second Chance

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Music, Features,

Katharine McPheeBuxom Idol contestant Katharine McPhee was dropped from her record label, but apparently reality roots run deep. Judge will help McPhee get back in the limelight with a new track on his album, where she’ll be paired with fellow Idol alum Elliott Yamin.

Okay, so I’ve heard the song…and it’s crap. Repetitive, boring, and throughout one can hear McPhee making strange, nonsensical noises. It’s called “Real Love,” one of the most uninspired titles I’ve heard, and the audio is currently making the rounds on the Internet. I warn you - don’t listen.

Amy Winehouse’s Contagious Condition

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Music,

Amy WinehouseAlthough it’s been years since I’ve taken my last marketing class, I do believe this was one of the major rules of thumb:

“If you’d like to launch a new cosmetic line, don’t be seen with a skin condition.”

Just last week, we reported that singer was in the process of starting her own clothing and makeup lines.  Now I’m wondering if she should just stick the former.

In recent days, the singer has been spotted with some mysterious lumps on her face.  After some speculated that she had been in a scuffle, Winehouse’s rep has set the record straight:  she has impetigo.  What is impetigo?  Here is the definition supplied by Dictionary.com:

“A contagious skin disease, esp. of children, usually caused by streptococcal bacteria, marked by a superficial pustular eruption, particularly on the face.”

I think I saw the word ‘pus’ in there.

Despite her contagious state, Amy hasn’t stopped doing what she needs to do.  She recently braved the cameras to visit her incarcerated honey, Blake Fielder-Civil.

Dolly Parton’s Large Front Causes Problems with Her Back

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Music,

Dolly PartonAdd large breasts to a tiny frame and what do you get?  A postponed concert tour.

Although she was weeks away from promoting her latest album, has been asked to give herself - and her gals - a rest.

It seems the country singer, who is probably best known for being full of life as well as her full bra, needs to take care of some ongoing physical issues.  As Parton put it, “Hey, you try wagging these puppies around a while and see if you don’t have back problems.”

Unfortunately a prescribed break will mean a delay of her upcoming shows.  The tour - originally scheduled to begin at the end of this month - will now be pushed back until at least April.

Until then, Dolly’s next album, Backwoods Barbie, will be available in stores Feb. 26th.

Listen to New Michael Jackson Track

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Music, Videos,

Michael Jackson Thriller 25For years now, I’ve made the habit of adding asterisks to my age.  (I’ll just say that I’m somewhere around 30****.)  Now the release of a special album has forced me to address my declining youth once again.

Tomorrow, Thriller 25 will be the latest CD to hit the stores.  This means we’ve now hit the classic album’s silver anniversary.  (Technically, it was released in December 1982.)  I swear I can see his protruding wrist bones splashed inside the cover like it was yesterday…

Tuesday’s deluxe edition will not only include remixes of the classic tracks (contributing artists include Akon, will.i.am and ) but several bonus songs as well.  One of those new additions, “For All Time”, is a record that never made the original cut.  It has since been tweaked for the 2008 update.  (You can listen to it here.)  While I would not consider the song memorable, it does bring back fond memories of a less freakish era.)

New Kids on the BlockWhat seemed like an impossibility four years ago has now just come true: the New Kids are getting back together!

Although failed to reunite Joey, Jon, Jordan, Danny and Donnie back in 2004, People is reporting that there has apparently been a change of heart.  (Or maybe simply a change in their pocketbooks.)  It’s believed the official website - which has had some recent activity - will post some significant news with the next few weeks.  Will it be just a one-time deal…like a performance?  Or will it be an actual comeback attempt?  Who knows?  The girl who once saw them perform at a local fairground doesn’t care.  She just wants to get on the floor and do the New Kids Dance!
