It turns out that Sony Pictures Michael Jackson documentary This is It was produced using old recordings from way before the tour rehearsals from the London residency shows took place.

Former BBC senior study manager Andrew Rose claims that some footage has been dubbed with old demos that are readily available on sites such as YouTube.

Jim Kennedy of Sony Pictures confirms:

“In order to fulfill Michael’s vision for his fans and his children… the filmmakers had to incorporate some pre-existing materials, including vocals, where the rehearsal footage audio was incomplete and/or inaudible. In addition, usage of master recordings (such as Earth Song) was credited in the end titles.”

Shocking considering everybody was amazed by Michael Jackson’s vocals so close to his death. Another clue that the people behind This is It wanted to distance themselves from any allegations that they were somehow responsible for Michael’s untimely death.

Dodgy!

Ok, Ok, I know this is starting to look like a Lady Gaga / Beyoncé Fanpage, but I guess there’s not much else going on than Lady Gaga at the moment. So be patient here.

For now check out Beyoncé’s new music clip for Video Phone below.

What do you think of it?

Click for the vid…

Check out Beyoncé’s next single Video Phone featuring none other than Lady Gaga.

We’ve been promised a video for days now, but at least you got Gaga’s own new one.

What is it with them colaborating on songs of similar names. Lady Gaga will have a track called Telephone on her re-release of The Fame featuring Beyoncé.

Strange.

Update: Here’s what is rumoured to be Lady Gaga’s upcoming single, called Telephone featuring Beyoncé

Watching Bad Romance by Lady Gaga I realised that Gaga looks a little like Chris Crocker, known from the YouTube video Leave Britney Alone.

Do you agree?

Take a look at Lady Gaga’s new music video for Bad Romance.

What do you think of it?

Are you still waiting for Beyoncé’s Video Phone clip featuring Lady Gaga?

Well, here’s something to quench your thirst for the time being.

Click for video…

Lady Gaga’s re-release of her album The Fame, will be hitting the shelves on 23rd November 2009. It will include Bad Romance, Telephone featuring Beyoncé and other new material. The Special Edition of The Fame Monster will include a lock of Lady Gaga’s hair. Weird.

Let’s just hope it doesn’t sell as well as The Fame, otherwise Lady Gaga will be sporting a bit of a bald look in the future.

OMG, I love the photos above that have been taken at this year’s MTV European Music Awards.

Celebrities actually talk over a glass of champagne. Amazing.

Do these photos mean that Shakira and Beyoncé actually like each other and will collaborate again in the future?!

Let’s hope so. For now, let’s reminisce….

Rihanna has finally opened up about what she experienced months ago in a personal interview with ABC last week and aired in parts this morning on ABC’s Good Morning America.

The complete interview will be aired tonight on American TV and is rumoured to cover previously unreported details of the surroundings of the incident several month ago.

Perez Hilton reports (link) that in tonight’s full interview she will go on in stating:

“I fended him off with my feet from one … side of the car, but … it was not like, it was not like a fight with each other. I just … I really just wanted it to stop…I was bleeding. I was swollen in my face. So there was no way of me getting home, except for, my next option was to get out of the car and walk. Start walking in a gown, in a bloody face. So I really don’t know what my plan was. I didn’t have a plan. That whole night was not part of my plan.”

“I caught him in a lie. And he wouldn’t tell the truth … I was being more annoyed at that point in our relationship he had to lie about something so stupid, I couldn’t take that he kept lying to me. And he couldn’t take that I wouldn’t drop it. And … it was ugly.”

“I just said to him, ‘I can’t do this.’ I resented him. I resented him so much. And I always put the tough face on and try to, I can do anything face, and just try to play it off. But he knew. He knew it. He kept asking me, ‘You hate me, don’t you? You hate me,’” she told Sawyer. “And I would lie and I would say, ‘No, no. And … I did hate him. … Everything about him annoyed me. So finally … I just said, we can’t … we can’t do this. I cannot continue to do this.”

“The thing that men don’t realize, when they hit a woman, it’s… the face, the broken arm, the black eye, it’s going to heal. That’s not … the problem. It’s the scar inside. You flashback. You … you remember it all the time. It comes back to you whether you like it or not. And it’s painful. So I don’t think he understood that. They never do.”

Finally it’s that time. B. Scott has been teasing us for weeks and weeks and it has finally hit the net. The most honest, truthful and intimate interview that Mariah Carey has ever given, covering issues like Mimi’s experience as a mixed race child, future plans of music and family.

Big shout out to my favourite, B. Scott from lovebscott.com

Check out the full interview after the jump…

Rihanna’s new video “Wait Your Turn” has just surfaced on the interweb.

What do you make of it? Personally I think the song is a bit lame but I like the grainy quality of the video….

Your opinions…?!

Check out the video to Britney’s next single ‘3′ (iTunes) that will be released alongside her Greatest Hits CD ‘Single Collection’ (Link)

What do you make of the video?

Britney is about to start the last leg of her ‘The Circus Starring Britney Spears’ Tour, which kicks off in Perth on the 6th of November.

Personally I’m not a fan. What do you guys think?

Check out Victoria Beckham’s latest advert for her personal fashion label.
Now, there’s good adverts and there’s bad adverts. This one is neither. It’s so very blah it’s unbelievable.

I have always been terribly bored by the detached houses of West London and the swings and bad singing in the background doesn’t add anything to my experience. The only fact I enjoy about this advert is Posh taking a swing herself in the end.

This is a classic case of different to be different. Art for Art’s sake. Booooring!

Update: The bus stop is fake too. No wonder that bus just passed without stopping!

Check out Beyonce’s new video.
What I like about it is, that it’s much more like Bday rather than I Am…Sasha Fierce. That’s probably down to the fact that this song leaked half way between Bday and I Am…Sasha Fierce.
I am glad Beyonce decided to make this a single.

What do you think of the video? Is it too reminiscent of Single Ladies or Green Light?

Check those videos out after the jump

After fighting rumours that her marriage to husband Guy Ritchie is on the rocks, she cannot only count on her brother’s complete ignorance, but the latter is also set to publish the unauthorised biography Life with my sister Madonna (available to pre-order over amazon UK for £10) in a week’s time!

My question: If a family member feels it is necessary to publish a tell-all book to get a piece of the pie, then how close can he really be? Expect some news from tabloids, some that may be true and others that are likely to be made up!

Might be a good bathroom read…!

Do yall remember when people said my fiance was pregnant????  What happened to that rumor????? I guess after we broke up it was just forgot about????  I’m just using that as an example of how people make up stuff and everybody runs with it. I had my own family asking me about that. Now the media is saying I’m going to anger management something or ‘nother. I have never had any conversations about anger management. If anything, I need anger enhancement!! lol! I get off the plane in Hawaii today and the world is saying my management team said blah blah blah…  SIIIIIIGGGHHHH!  I told the media you can’t make up lies about me because I have a media outlet myself. Oh and sidebar I don’t know if everyone has realized this yet but I don’t do interviews if there’s anything I wanna say I’ll say right here on my own blog.

These ladies (especially Madonna) have proven, that they know how to keep their brand interesting. While it seems like they haven’t spoken ever since their infamous MTV performance in 2005 where they shared a Lesbian kiss – despite serious problems on Britney’s part -, they both know when it’s time to renew their “friendship”. If Britney manages to release something out of the hype, then it’s a win-win situation for both of them.

I guess we have to wait til August for content of the collaboration to surface – I’ll keep you posted!

How do you like the new video of Usher? I personally find that “Moving Mountains” isn’t a as good of a song as “Love in this club“, but it is still a fair attempt.

Usher is rumored to have filed for separation from his wife Tameka Raymond. If true, he leaves her after just a few month with a baby recently born.

His album  Here I stand is due out on the 27th May.

Stay tuned for more info…

Amy Winehouse

Organizers now hope, that Amy will give a smashing show, with Jay Z expressing his interest in performing with her.

We’ll have to just wait and see.

In it she talks about being a single-mother of three children, with one that is splattered all over tabloids. Should be insightful. Whether Lindsay is going to make an appearance is left to be seen. But if she does it for Ugly Betty, why not for Living Lohan? After all, it’s a family affair.

See for yourself… on the Sun’s website here

Lindsay hasn’t starred in any major project since last years flop I Know Who Killed Me (Source IMDb) and probably spend more time in rehab than in the recording studio. She is determined to change that. Lindsay is going to present the MTV Movie Awards next week and has been seen leaving a studio with a CD in hand. Let’s hope she doesn’t get distracted stealing any coats out of the cloak room on the way.

It is clear, that it wasn’t his decision but his record label’s. Reuters reports that Nas commented,

It’s important to me that this album gets to the fans. The people will always know what the real title of this album is and what to call it.

I find it appalling, that while Nas wanted to make a political statement, in response to Don Imus’ comments toward the Rutgers women’s basketball team, he is now pressured to change the title. 

The project that hasn’t been named as of yet is due to be released on 1st July. Listen to some of the songs after the click.

“Mama Black Widow is the portrait of a black family’s migration from the southern Mississippi fields of the segregated south to the ghettoized black underworld of Chicago during the 1930’s. The story follows Otis Tilson’s struggle to keep his family together as they navigate through a world of alcoholism, pimping, sexual deviation and racial degradation. Told in the gut level language of the original novel by Iceberg Slim, the family’s journey is a harsh testament of lives lived on the margins of a racist and predatory world.” [Source: IMdB]

Let’s hope for Rihanna’s sake, that it’s not going to flop.

Good Luck Rihanna.

Jessica Alba’s publicist reports, that Jes got married to long time boyfriend Cash Warren on Monday.

Jessica is due to give birth to their baby in summer 2008.

Congratulations guys

Look who just released a new video… Michelle Williams looks so different in “We Break the Dawn”

She had major success with her last album that was renowned in the gospel genre. This release is the first mainstream collection by Michelle.

What do you think of the video?

Look what the Sun recovered from a nightclub in London. 

What do you make out of this? 

Jude Law and Kimberly Stewart?

Weird!

Comments?

So Britney is incapable of having a professional relationship with anyone? Even if it is affectionate, maybe that is exactly what Britney needs. That is basically suggesting, that this gentleman, who just became her agent can’t divide between business and private life? Don’t get me wrong, I feel for Britney and love her, but she isn’t that irresistible, and I still have the hope that she isn’t a complete pushover.

Britney was in Cost Rica with Mel Gibson for a weekend getaway.

Tina Turner, 68, announced her comeback after getting a taste for performing again with Beyoncé at this years Grammy Awards. 

She initially brought her Farewell Tour to Europe in 2000, but she’s back and tickets are available from tomorrow, 21/05/2008 from 9.00am (!!!)

Tickets range from £50-£100, at two dates in London (3rd + 4th March 2009, TheO2) and two dates in Manchester (30th + 31st March 2009, MEN Arena) Be quick, you know they’re going to sell out quickly.

Ticketmaster

It’s going to be held in New York City in the next six weeks. Picture a wedding on the scale of Liza Minnelli’s (to David Gest) and you’ll be on the right track

In the meantime, Mariah’s former boyfriend of four years, the co-producer of her successful E=MC² still can’t believe how quick things happened for Mariah after they split up earlier this year. C’est la vie.
