Michael Jackson’s troubles continue to follow him even after death. Singer/songwriter Paul Anka accused Jackson of swiping the song that he co-wrote. Says ABC News,
Michael Jackson’s new single, “This Is It,” was barely out of the box this week before singer-songwriter Paul Anka claimed that he and Jackson co-wrote the song in 1983 under a different title, “I Never Heard.” Anka told TMZ that Jackson “stole the tapes” from Anka’s studio, where he and Jackson wrote and recorded the song. “They have a major, major problem on their hands. They will be sued if they don’t correct it,” Anka told The New York Times. Soon after Anka’s threat of legal action, record executive and producer Jon McClain called to acknowledge Anka’s co-authorship and promise “all due credit and royalties.” The estate also released a statement that said, in part, “The song was co-written by the legendary Paul Anka.”
Well, if this isn’t proof that whatever talent Michael had earlier in life left him as he grew older and more bizarre, I don’t know what is. You’d think that if he bothered to steal it, it’d actually be good. It’s bland, boring, and lacking in originality. Watch it yourself:
Meet the charming ladies(?) of UK “dirty pop” group Fe-Nix. From their Myspace (gag gag) page, their bio reads:
Hailing from the UK, this four-piece dirty pop band made up of Jade (21), Ayshan (25), Tanya (24) and Priceless (22) are about to take Britain by storm with their brilliant new debut single, ‘Lady Baby’, a funkier twist on the R&B classic, My Boo (Ghost Town DJ’s).
After performing all over the UK individually the girls decided to combine their talents (after meeting each other through their dance class) and form a hot new girl group, but something was missing. They found what they were looking for in the form of Priceless. With the addition of this sassy lyricist from Wolverhampton the foursome hit it off and so, Fe-Nix was born!
Their musical tastes are varied; the ladies are big fans of Beyonce, Jazmin Sullivan, Alicia Keys, Michael Bolton, Turkish Music, Bob Marley, Mariah and The Pussycat Dolls. It is actually the latter who the ladies are compared to most.
Other comparisons include hit acts such as Misteeq and Booty Luv, however Fe-nix bring their own unique signature sound combining their diverse ethnicity’s, music tastes and eclectic styles.
Now, I’m not completely convinced that all of these shrinking violets have two X chromosomes, if you know what I mean. For example, Exhibit A: “Jade” up there seems a little too taken with her own rack. Kind of like she’s never seen it before, kind of like how a man might react if he suddenly woke up with two bouncing boobies on his chest and his penis missing. Maybe the UK really IS overrun with fugly women, so the masterminds at their record label went an unorthodox route to dredging up some t&a. The mystery and the self-discovery continues in Exhibit B, after the jump:
Here’s something new to make this whole Chris Brown/Rihanna thing descend even deeper into retard territory: Just days after Chris Brown was charged in beating Rihanna, they met together to record a new track. Digital Spy gives the details:
A representative for producer Polow Da Don, who wished to remain anonymous, told CNN that the track was completed earlier this week but declined to give any further details.
In a statement, Da Don refused to comment on the speculation, saying only: “My heart goes out to both Chris and Rihanna for what has happened in the past. They are both great artists to work with and I wish them well.”
However, another insider has told Us Weekly that the untitled duet “is about being stronger and growing stronger in a relationship”.
They added: “The song was originally created for Rihanna…It wasn’t initially slated for Chris to be on the song.”
Any one want to take a crack at what the title of the song is? Well, here are my guesses:
1. Don’t it Make My Brown Eyes Black
2. Reunited and It Hurts Like a Bitch
3. I Swear I Won’t Beat You Again, At Least Not Until You Piss Me Off
4. You Asked For It
5. Beat It
6. Collagen Injections Are Expensive, A Fist is Free
7. Bitch, You Dripped Blood On My Ride
8. It’s Okay, Somehow It Was My Fault
9. I Love You To Death
Back in January, trying her best to hide a cold sore:
Auditory diarrhea is not just something you can hear in the bathroom stall of your local Denny’s anymore, it’s something that you can experience in full digital, surround-sound glory! That’s right, ladies and gentlemen, you can now experience tympanic esctasy when you listen to Paris Hilton and Benji Madden’s upcoming duet! Not satisfied to just create the colonic blowout that was her first album, Paris Hilton is in plans to enter the studio with main squeeze Benji Madden. The Mirror reports,
The heiress has already been writing about her new album on her official blog, but now she’s confirmed that her other half is to make a cameo on it.
Talking to top Los Angeles-based showbiz website Hollyscoop, Paris said: “Well, actually I have a studio at the house. He [Benji] actually helped me write some of the songs for my new album, and for the BFF show (her new UK reality show for MTV). He’s a really amazing talent, songwriter and singer.”
On asked whether they would duet, Ms Hilton said: “Yes, definitely. When the show comes out.”
One thing is for certain, it’s sure to go down the anals annals of history as one of the best sycopated bowel movement of all time! Can’t you just smell the success?
Lindsay Lohan keeps thwarting Universal Motown’s attempts to make her new album a success. According to Gatecrasher
“Universal [lined] up great producing talents, and, recently, they even hooked Timbaland. But Lindsay has canceled their planned meetings twice,” says a snitch.
However, after a rocky start, singer-songwriter Ne-Yo is still on board. Lindsay had rejected some initial tracks from the star-maker, who has created hits for Rihanna, Usher and Celine Dion. But he is still in talks to work with the rehabbed pop star.
Frankly, I imagine it was all downhill for Universal once Lindsay discovered “let’s make beautiful music together” wasn’t a coy euphemism for “let’s do it in the butt.”
