It seems that the diva’s latest album cannot go without the complimentary tour in which Mariah Carey can grace the entire world with her talent. Mariah Carey will be taking to the road in 2010 through the US together with her husband Nick Cannon… somebody has to open for her, right? And who would Mariah Carey actually find to put up with her… very exigent behavioral pattern except for Nick Cannon. This is going to be loads of fun! Just imagine: Mariah Carey, brain damaging everybody with absurd requests from coast to coast. That’s probably going to be the tour’s headline.
It seems the highly successful singer has some emotional issues she needs to deal with… thankfully, she’s already accepted to live with them for the moment. This is what Lady GaGa said on the matter: “The lowest point is loneliness, being on the road. I have a chronic sadness that recurs. The lowest point was in Australia in May. I was overwhelmingly sad, and I didn’t know why because I had all these things to be happy about.” Well, if Lady GaGa actually gave the matter a bit of thought, she’d realize that sadness is a “chronic disease” since nobody really gets “cured” of it… or she might just be bipolar, in which case Lady GaGa needn’t worry since that is after all and artist’s disease.
The singer has recently declared his unwillingness to do any more tours since every time he does them he ends up in rehab and/or gaining too much weight… at least that’s what Robbie Williams thinks about it. But what about the Take That comeback? What about the great shows Robbie Williams was going to do with his old singing buddies? Or is just the solo tours that mess Robbie Williams up? Or might it be the fact that aliens have taken over his mind and his girlfriend dresses their dog up? That might be enough for anybody to go on a sugar binge and end up in rehab.
American Idol cutie David Archuleta has recently announced via a video blog that he’s going on tour this Christmas to promote his latest album ‘Christmas from the Heart’ which is already out. David’s a precious little singer and he seemed so excited about going on tour again. You just have to love the young people in the music and entertainment industry who are still so keen on everything. But it’s even more fun to get a look at them a couple of years later and see just how jaded and angst-ridden they become. Here’s to hoping that David doesn’t end up like any of those guys.

Louis Vuitton is known for featuring classy stars in its advertisement campaigns and their latest LV girl has proven she can indeed give the younger girls a run for their money even at the age of 50. Well, Material Girl Madonna does not look 50 at all in her Louis Vuitton photos. She in fact looked fabulous and classy! Or was that the effect of having the expensive Louis Vuitton bag at her side all the time?
Madonna has been having a roll lately, what with the approval of her divorce with Guy Ritchie several weeks ago and her successful “Sticky & Sweet” concert tour. Plus, her on-going affair with sporty Alex Rodriguez which is being lapped up by the press no matter how many denials they issue.
Photos of the pop superstar, clad in killer stilettos, fishnet tights and of course, the classy Louis Vuitton bag, has been circulating in the Internet lately. Madonna looks sultry in all of her photographs for the Spring/Summer 2009 collection of Louis Vuitton. The shots, which were taken by Steven Meisel (known for working closely with Madonna for her “Sex” book), are just a previous of bigger thinks to come in exchange for the millions allegedly paid by Louis Vuitton to showcase Madonna in its new ad campaign to include giant billboards.
Madonna was personally chosen by Marc Jacobs, the designer and creative director of Louis Vuitton, for the ad campaign after being blown away by the performance and energy exuded by Madonna in her Paris concert. The deal was reportedly done through text message in a span of five minutes.
Celine Dion has been forced to postpone several of her North American show on her Taking Chances World Tour. The diva is said to be suffering from a respiratory virus. Just earlier this month, she already had to cancel shows in Minneapolis, Indianapolis and Chicago. Fortunately for Celine fans, the concerts have been rescheduled to December, January and February. That’s the way to do it! It’s a good thing she didn’t go the Janet Jackson way and just cancel the shows altogether. As for the diva, her tour promoter, AEG Live, has announced that she is recuperating from a recurrent naso-pharyngeal infection that was further complicated by inflamed vocal cords.
Beyonce seems to have gotten very fond of her cyborg hand when she showed up for the red carpet at the 2008 MTV Europe Music Awards which were held at the Echo Arena last Thursday in Liverpool, England wearing the contraption. The 27-year old singer also gave a live performance of her hit song ‘If I Were a Boy’. Beyonce also talked about the elections last week. She was so overwhelmed when she heard about Barack Obama’s win. She said “I’ve never been so patriotic! I fell asleep crying and smiling at the same time … I woke up with mascara running and a smile on my face!”
in fact he still had enough to say.
Rulers of the ice cream world Ben & Jerry and music icon Elton John have teamed up for charity. The ice cream makers are going to produce a custom flavor ice cream called ‘Goodbye Yellow Brickle Road’. It’s made of “an outrageous symphony of decadent chocolate ice cream, peanut butter cookie dough, butter brickle and white chocolate chunks.” Sounds yummy! Proceeds of the sales will be donated to the Elton John AIDS Foundation. In celebration of the partnership, Elton will perform in Vermont, the home state of the ice cream producers, next Monday. After that performance, Elton can officially claim that he’s played in all 50 of the United States.
Gwyneth Paltrow broke down in tears after husband Chris Martin sang ‘Fix You’ during a recent Coldplay concert.
The Oscar-winning actress became very emotional when the song – which Chris wrote for Gwyneth following her father’s death in 2002 – was played and couldn’t stop crying.
An onlooker at the New York show said: “Gwyneth was whispering and clapping throughout the show. But when ‘Fix You’ started, she broke down in tears.”
The lyrics in the ballad – which include “Tears stream down your face, when you lose something you cannot replace” – are about Gwyneth and the loss she felt.
After the show, mother-of-two Gwyneth was comforted by Chris, who tried to cheer her up.
The onlooker added: “He noticed she had been crying. He kissed her and made her laugh by pointing out all the things he had screwed up in the show.”
Chris has previously revealed his wife inspires his song writing, saying: “Everything in my life comes up. Gwyneth’s in there. My friends are in there. The way I see the world is in there. The lyrics come out and I just – I try not to get in their way.”
Avril Lavigne cancelled her concert in Barcelona on Sunday. The cause for the cancellation is because the singer and so-called songwriter was said to be in a state of indisposition. Isn’t that always the case? The Canadian singer cancels concerts as often as she changes underwear. It’s either because she was too wasted the night before or there are only about two people in her audience. If you ask me, she should just cancel her whole career all together to save the rest of us from being exposed to her. She’ll be doing the world a great favor if she does that.
Kelly Rowland says Madonna is allowed to be a diva.
The former Destiny’s Child singer insists the pop superstar, known for her outrageous demands, should be able to ask for whatever she wants because ’she’s freakin’ Madonna’.
Kelly said: ‘Madonna can have anything she wants. If she only wants red Skittles then get her red Skittles, she’s freakin’ Madonna! And if she wants a huge trailer, get her a huge trailer.’
Madonna reportedly enraged fellow artists and organisers at Radio 1’s Big Weekend in Maidstone, Kent, on Saturday, by insisting on having special Kabbalah water backstage and requesting a private helicopter to take her to the event.
The 49-year-old singer’s 70-strong entourage are also said to have demolished the free food and alcohol provided for the other artists performing, which included Kelly, The Kooks and Nelly.
Kylie Minogue is a Geisha again. For her new tour, Kylie has gone back to an image she first used a decade ago.
Jean Paul Gaultier has designed 7 costumes for her on the upcoming KylieX2008 tour that starts in Paris on May 6. For the tour, Kylie has a new band, for the first time a brass section, 14 dancers and 4 acrobats.
There will be one surprise cover in the set. We’ll have to wait until the Paris show to find out that will be.
This tour will visit some new territory for Kylie. For the first time, she will perform in Greece, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Turkey, Luxembourg, Russia, Latvia and Spain. The European leg of the tour ends in London on August 4.
The Australian tour is expected to happen in November.
