Usher's latest CD was scheduled for release yesterday on Super Bowl Sunday, but it has now been pushed back to March 30!
Jive Records is refusing to release the new album until the singer signs with new management. His former manager AND mother Jonetta Patton are effing done professionally since late November 2009. Says a source:
"She walked away from the project because Usher had his girlfriend [and former Def Jam executive] Grace Miguel all in the mix. She [Jonetta] felt as though if she didn't end things when she did, it would permanently afec their personal relationship."
Sounds like Usher's mama has territorial issues with the other women in his life! Remember how ugly it got with his ex-wife Tameka?!
Usher's first single from his new album "Papers" hit the radio last September but it peaked at Number 31 on the Billboard Hot 100. Not his best.
Things could be looking up soon though because it's rumored that he is going to sign with AEG Live CEO Randy Phillips — Usher was at Phillips' table at Clive Davis' pre-Grammy party.
Selena Gomez paid mad props to one who came before her, the late, great Selena, by covering her track, Bidi Bidi Bom Bom!, last night at the San Antonio Rodeo!!
Who knew she could speak Spanish????
And do our eyes deceive us?? Is that Nick Jonas watching from the side stage?? Curious, very curious indeed!!
"I've thought about doing it… He (White) seems to be a fan but who knows. You never know what I might do," says Parton.
Dolly says she's "not opposed" to White producing the record, but that she usually has "a set notion of where I'm headed with a certain project and what I want to get out of it."
Mimi may want to rethink her concert setlist, because even the precious lambs she 'cares' about so much are starting to get crankier than she is when she has to squeeze herself into her spanx every day!!
According to an insider, Mooriah is charging up to $325 per ticket while she's on tour, with a relatively short set list. On top of showing up late to every show, the diva has reportedly cut 3 MORE songs for the past two dates, including fan favorite Emotions.
The source claims that even her fanclub lambs, who never complain about the diva's antics, are up in arms, and rightfully so!!
Nobody else cares about you anymore, Mimi, not even Hello Kitty, so you better be nice to the people who actually give a shiz!!!
We couldn't care less either way, but we hate indecisiveness!
Bassist Pete Wentz set the wheels in motion over a week ago, announcing subtly that Fall Out Boy was breaking up.
Now he is trying to fix his mistakeclarify what he meant by his tweets and what the future is for the band. He explains:
"We just haven't had the time to say anything. All I have been able to do is say, 'Man, I miss doing Fall Out Boy,' and I got to a better place hanging out with my son. Now I'm OK if Fall Out Boy comes back or doesn't come back. Like, if it's fun for everyone to do again, we're going to do it … I just want it to be authentic when we come back."
Wonder if that is how the rest of the boys feel? Or are they just super pissed you gave up on the Pete?!
Legendary singer Leonard Cohen has been forced to reschedule his European concert dates!
Cohen, who won the Lifetime Achievement Special Merit Award at last week's Grammy's, is coping from a "compression injury in his lower back" while exercising and has been ordered to take time off to recoup.
"He has been advised by physicians to follow the typical four-to-six month regime of physical therapy prescribed for athletes with similar injuries," say reps for the singer.
"Doctors have confirmed that Mr. Cohen is otherwise in terrific shape, thanks to years of exercise and a careful diet, and simply needs appropriate time to recover from the lower back injury."
We're not surprised! Everything she touches turns to shit!
Avril Lavigne just released Alice, the theme for Tim Burton's Alice In Wonderland and it's shiteous. It was released this week and it's sitting at the meager #64 spot on the iTunes sales charts.
