Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Gossip, Reunions, Rumors, Pop,

Victoria Beckham has dropped out of the Spice Girls reunion tour. The 90s girl band - also made up of Mel B, Geri Halliwell, Emma Bunton and Mel C - were reportedly set to perform a string of concerts in Australia next year and sources had claimed all five members would be involved.

However, Victoria - who has carved out a hugely successful career as a fashion designer - doesn't want to take part and will not be joining them. The mother-of-four's spokesperson told The Sun, "Victoria has no plans to tour with the Spice Girls in 2014. Her future focus concerns her family and fashion business."

However, the four remaining members are still keen to do it and look set to go ahead without Victoria. The girls last performed together as a five-piece at the London 2012 closing ceremony and Mel B said they were keen to go on tour again. "We're always talking about getting together. We always have cups of tea and dinners together. We're all friends at the end of the day," she said.

Before the Olympics the group last performed together in 2008 as part of their comeback tour.

Adele Considers Vegas Residency

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Artist News, Gossip, Rumors, Pop, R&B / Soul,

Adele is considering a residency in Las Vegas. The "Skyfall" singer may perform a number of dates in the American gambling capital rather than embark on a grueling world tour, so she can settle into family life with her baby Angelo, born last October, with partner Simon Konecki.

"Adele is top of the Vegas hit-list and she's seriously considering it as an option. She wants to get back to performing but doesn't want to go on the road so soon after becoming a mum. A Vegas residency would mean she could settle with her family and record her third album all at once," a source said.

The "Rolling in the Deep" star has reportedly been asking for tips from her friend Elton John, who celebrated performing 3,000 shows in Las Vegas in 2011 and continues to appear there regularly. "She's been asking for advice from Elton, who has spent years performing at Caesars Palace. Elton's been like a godfather to her recently, helping her settle into life as a superstar and the challenges of being a parent," the source added.

Nicole Scherzinger’s Pussycat Jealousy

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Gossip, Rumors, Pop, R&B / Soul,

Nicole Scherzinger's jealously caused The Pussycat Dolls to split, according to former member Carmit Bacher. The "Don't Cha" hitmakers - made up of Nicole, Carmit, Melody Thornton, Ashley Roberts, Jessica Sutta and Kimberly Wyatt - broke up in 2010 and Carmit says the main reason behind the split was Nicole's envy of Ashley and the way she looked.

"Nicole was jealous of Ashley. She felt threatened by her - like people would prefer her because of the way she looked. Ashley had that iconic American thing going on - blonde hair, blue eyes. It was the look Nicole seemed to want but could never have. No one could understand why Nicole was so jealous. She was an exotic beauty with a look that most girls would kill for. But she always had a thing about blonde girls. Ashley knew that Nicole was jealous of her and it made her feel uncomfortable. It was a hideous undertone in the group."

Next Katy Perry Album to Be Released Summer 2013

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Artist News, Rumors, Upcoming Releases, Pop,

Fans of Katy Perry will be excited to know that the "Wide Awake" singer will be releasing her next album in the summer.

The 28 year-old popstar has promised her fans a darker album to follow-up 2010's upbeat Teenage Dreams (most likely due to her tumultuous year involving the breakdown of her marriage to comedian Russell Brand).

Perry is rumored to continue partnering with Greg Wells and Bonnie McKee on her songs, which hopefully won't stray all too far from her popular catchy sounds.

There's no word yet as to what the album title may be.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Gossip, Reunions, Rock,

Trent Reznor has confirmed new Nine Inch Nails material is "in the works." The band's front-man went on a 20th anniversary farewell tour with them in 2009, but now reveals they may release new songs in the future.

"All signs point to yes... Yeah, there will be new music. There are some things in the works. Yeah, if it feels right, it's a possibility. I never said that that wasn't going to happen, just that it couldn't go on as it was. Stay tuned. We'll see what happens here," he told Rolling Stone.

Since parting ways with Nine Inch Nails, Trent has been creating songs for films including The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo and The Social Network.

Speaking last year, the 47-year-old singer said he did not think of Nine Inch Nails as "dead," but just away temporarily: "Nine Inch Nails is not dead by any means, but all the touring and record writing has been thrown off for a little bit." Nine Inch Nails last released an album in 2008.

Taylor Swift Sings About Jake Gyllenhaal

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Gossip, Rumors, Country, Pop, New Releases,

Taylor Swift's song "The Last Time" is allegedly about her ex-boyfriend Jake Gyllenhaal.

The "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" singer - whose new album Red sold 1.2 million copies last week - has revealed the break-up song is about an "unreliable guy" and refers to a Hollywood lifestyle sparking rumors it is about the 31-year-old Love And Other Drugs actor.

The 22-year-old singer, who dated Jake for a few months last year - told Guy Raz on National Public Radio, "The idea was based on this experience I had with someone who was kind of this unreliable guy. You never know when he's going to leave, you never know when he's going to come back, but he always does come back. It's a really fragile emotion you're dealing with when you want to love someone, but you don't know if it's smart to."

Last year it was reported that Jake both initiated their relationship and decided to end it because he couldn't stand the attention, leaving Taylor devastated."He said he wasn't feeling it anymore and was uncomfortable with all the attention they got. He also said he could feel the age difference. Taylor is really upset. We told her not to move so fast with this but she didn't listen," a source said at the time.

Paul McCartney: Yoko Wasn’t to Blame for Beatles Split

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Gossip, Rumors, Rock,

Paul McCartney has insisted Yoko Ono wasn't responsible for the end of The Beatles.

The 70-year-old musician has attempted to end decades of anger directed at the Japanese artist for the band's demise in 1970 and is adamant his decision to quit the group wasn't motivated by a dislike of John Lennon's widow - a much held belief.

In an interview with David Frost for television channel Al Jazeera English, Paul said, "She certainly didn't break the group up, the group was breaking up."

Paul insists they were a number of different reasons why the band - which also included the late George Harrison and Ringo Starr - ended and he credits Yoko with inspiring some of John's best work. The "Hey Jude" songwriter believes the different creative influences Yoko, 79, brought into John's life helped him write tracks such as "Imagine" and "Dear Prudence."
