Lady GaGa and New Single “Bad Romance”

The first single of Lady GaGa’s reworked album called “The Fame Monster” which is billed as having an edgier sound than her previous material.  A bit more of a euro ring to this one, superb high art video, usual Lady GaGa on the edge fashion statements. Pretty good song. We Like and should do predictably well!

Cheryl Cole caught in the media marriage problems triangle!

With the recent success of Cheryl Cole and the launch of her solo career with a joint UK No1 Single and also Debut Album that also hit the No1 Spot at the same time something only a dozen or so female artists have achieved since the UK charts were formed, the saying “it doesn’t get any better than this” really was very appropriate a couple of weeks or so ago.

And there lies the problem, Cheryl has been on a heady rise over the last year and all of this has been backed by the media big time, but eventually a strange thing happens with news it suddenly realises, things can’t get any better and they start looking for any bad news within the success story, and the media shockingly changes tack and starts looking for faults, scandal and cracks in the success story.

Recent developments have zoomed in on the fact that Cheryl has not been wearing her wedding ring for a couple of weeks some time back and the recent Children in Need Concert where Cheryl performed and Ashley attended, afterwards Cheryl wanted to party but Ashley was not up for it. This has started a Cheryl Cole, Marriage Problems and Media triangle with an increasingly large snowball of stories that the Glossy celeb mags and tabloids are getting into in a big way with headlines like “Cheryl Crisis” and “Cheryl marriage dramas return” and others of the more extreme variety.

This may or may not be true but a recent posting by her management company Supersonic PR on Twitter shows a picture of her holding up her hand with the £160,000 ring firmly on with the accompanying Tweet “3 Words. Diamonds are Forever”

Good move from Cheryl and her PR company as these sort of media rumours are very damaging indeed and there’s only one way to fight media rumours and thats fight back with your own media in this case Twitter!

Get the Tweet here http://twitpic.com/pzims and form your own opinion but as they say……….. there’s no smoke without fire! Is Cheryl one for the FJ Girls worry radar……..AGAIN???

Mariah Carey turns on Xmas lights at Westfield, London

With a 6pm billing for Thurdsay 19 November for the switch on of the Christmas lights at the massive Westfield Shopping Centre at Shepherds Bush, London qeues were forming fast around lunchtime as yours truly was there passing through at that time but had other things on so did not attend!

As everybody knows Mariah Carey is a diva amongst divas, and as everybody also knows what does a diva do when you’ve got thousands of fans waiting patiently for the 6pm Mariah Xmas light turn on …….. you turn up late. We are not talking 10 or 20 minutes here, it was a full hour before the Mariah entourage made its appearance at Westfield but she probably realises as do her fans that somethings are worth waiting for.

So why was she late apart from the diva reason? Apparently she was having a few glasses of champagne at The Dorchester just up the road and must have lost track of the time?

Grey/black were the colours of choice for her outfit and a silver wand was her tool to signal that she has given her diva permission to have the Westfield Christmas lights turned on and not a second earlier.

Afterwards Mariah attended a £200,000 party held at the Jalouse Nightclub in Mayfair where she turned up in a £300,000 ice white customised Rolls Royce phantom. Of course this event did not go without the diva demands where she asked for club decorations to include white roses, white drapes and vanilla and strawberry scented candles. Doesn’t get any more specific than that!

So what do we think about all this diva carry on? When you are this talented and have been around as long as she has we can safely say she has earned her diva demand status and then some!
