Wiley Feat Jodie Connor & J2K “Electric Boogaloo” Official Video and Verdict!

After the massive success of “Good Times” which reached No1 in the UK Charts with Roll Deep this time out we have a smaller Roll Deep outing here with grimer Wiley with feat again Jodie Connor and their new number “Electric Boogaloo”. Let’s put it through it’s paces?

The Verdict. Before we start what did the Sun have to say about this new release:

“The Roll Deep crew members Grimey stylings are out of place alongside this tracks generic dance-pop chorus…Rating 2 and half stars”

And that just about sums this song up, it suits Jodie Connor but the grime boys it does not, but that’s the vid. If you were wondering it looks to have been shot on the Thames footbridge in London between St Paul’s and Tate Modern and also around the SE1 Shad Thames and back of London Bridge station area.

Onto the song, this is mainstream dance, it’s simple, catchy and underpinned by a brain drilling base line. Jodie Connor and her vocals we cannot dispute here but this song comes down on repetition and lyrics which is part of the tag for the genre. Could do well chart wise but will probably be forgotten in a years time. Rating 2 and half stars +++++ lifted by the Jodie Connor vocals but this will fill those dance floors none the less which is the market it is aimed at and will hit the spot with Londoner’s.

Megan Fox and the “Jonah Hex” Premiere, Hollywood!

After a long run of very dreary yawn premieres which were avoided like the plague in order to save precious time including the recent “Killers” which has got a whopping 1 star by the critics and thankfully did not appear on this site, here’s something to get the blood on the boil. Question that comes to mind though, is this yet another no hoper?

UPI/Jim Ruymen Photo via Newscom Megan Fox was the star of the show for the premiere of her latest film outing called Jonah Hex” which was held at the ArcLight Cinemas Cinerama Dome in Hollywood. This film is pretty much an all male cast with a gun toting Megan Fox who apparently wore what will become the famous corset to get her waist to an eye watering 18 inches.

Some big names in this film including Josh Brolin, John Malkovich, Michael Fassbender, Will Arnett and Michael Shannon. The John Malkovich name adds a bit of weight to this film as he rarely appears in anything sub standard.

The Red Carpet Arrivals list:

Ashley Edner, Barbra Streisand, Bill Kelliher, Brann Dailor, Brent Hinds, Brody Dalle, Diane Lane, Eric Scott, Helen Mirren, James Brolin, Josh Brolin, Josh Homme, Julia Jones, Kay Panabaker, Lance Reddick, Mastodon, Megan Fox, Paul Haggis, Talulah Riley, Taylor Hackford, Troy Sanders, Wes Bentley

The Plot: Jonah Hex (Josh Brolin) is a scarred drifter and bounty hunter of last resort, a tough and stoic gunslinger who can track down anyone…and anything. Having survived death, Jonah’s violent history is steeped in myth and legend, and has left him with one foot in the natural world and one on the “other side.” His only human connection is with Lilah (Megan Fox), whose life in a brothel has left her with scars of her own.

Some Critical Views:

The film for some dubious reason is only 70 minutes long. Why is the burning question, some clues from the critics below:

David Germain of the Associated Press calls the film “So short, and so bad, you cringe at the thought of how awful whatever ended up on the cutting-room floor must be.”

This is not a good start anything a bit more positive?

Bill Goodykoontz of the Arizona Republic, “Take the intriguing premise of a punk-rock Western based on a graphic novel, populate it with a good cast, add striking visuals and you come up with…a real mess.”

Surely it’s not that bad?

Michael O Sullivan of The Washington Post :

“the way Hex can resurrect a corpse, simply by touching it, to perform a bit of postmortem interrogation, is the film’s most original touch.

Would that he could accomplish that same miracle with the film. Like Hex himself, the movie may not exactly be dead, but it sure as heck ain’t living.”

So there you have it………….A corpse of a film, we’ve heard films being called some names…….but a corpse!!!

AND We think we’ll leave it there BUT if you are a Megan Fox fan you will still go and see it anyway and suffer this regardless just to see her in that corset and toting that gun……….there’s something sexy about gun toting women….or is it me. Box office prediction……..we hope this goes No1 to give the two fingers to the critics, the Megan Fox factor will be an awfully tempting thing to resist even if the film is “a corpse”.

Nicole Snooki Polizzi and Enrique Iglesias new single called I Like It (Jersey Shore Version)

Bit of a crafty headline as it appears that Nicole Snooki Polizzi and Enrique Iglesias are duetting on this new single called “I Like It”.

Could be interesting but it’s more realistically an Enrique Iglesias number that does have a certain Nicole Snooki in it but not singing. Apparently the single was released in the US last month but it’s half decent and features snippets of the Jersey Shore crew including of course Nicole Snooki Polizzi and the other Jersey Shore babes on a mission to get into a live gig using all their girly charms……………..see if it actually works. Unrated number as Enrique Inglesias is not a female celebrity as far as we are aware but if we did rate it this looks to be in the order of 3 and half stars plus…..but only just!

Katy Perry and new single “California Gurls” Official Video and Verdict!

The long awaited official video for California Gurls with a U has just come out. We have live and the preview, it’s been on the promo run and performed live at the MTV Movie awards lets put this through the griller and see if this is the next big thing to hit the charts and what it’s made of.

Katy-Perry California Gurls

Katy Perry “California Gurls” Official Video!

The Verdict: Daisy Dukes……………Bikini’s on top……………! Lets start with the vid. Top marks here it’s a sort of Wizard of Oz or Alice in Wonderland but with bikinis. Katy Perry with what looks like nothing on, firing creamy stuff at the end, it’s all suggestive and naughty stuff, doesn’t up the marking in that area though but it all helps……… a little. Onto the song. This is yet another “Bubble Gum” style pop number which we do come down hard on here, but it is catchy, the lyrics are limited but OK, it does get you bopping and twirling your fingers, the Katy Perry vocals are up to her usual half decent standard. Bubble Gum normally equals 2 and half stars++++ end of story, but we are going with a scraper 3 stars + and thats one plus sign here as the video is very good indeed and vocals are on the mark and it is Katy Perry………………what would Russ say?

Chart prediction…………should fly! No1? Not so sure, our money is on either Eminem feat Rihanna and “Love The Way You Lie” or Lady GaGa and “Alejandro” with Kelly Rowlands “Commander” as a rank outsider as they are vastly superior songs technically and sonically which would put this in the Top 5……………but we could be wrong here………….and then there’s always the rumoured new Britney release!

Onto the juicy goss and Celeb Gossip Blogger Perez Hilton seems to be in a spot of hot water with a dodgy borderline photo that is causing a legal storm. According to Sky News the photo showed Cyrus getting out of a car, with the space between her legs pixelated and carrying a “warning” sign, but Hilton says he was just highlighting the “very unladylike fashion” Cyrus was exiting the vehicle.

May want to remember she’s 17 and still a minor…….might just help! It’s hitting the wires big time according to Sky Perez had this to say:

“Sure I like to be controversial, but I don’t want to go to jail”.

Miley Cyrus had this to say:

“That’s some idiot being an idiot. Isn’t it funny that things like that, that are so negative, have to come out right before my record?”

Where do we stand on this? We back Miley 100%!

More info from Sky News No link to the article from this site as we know that causing an uproar at the PH Blog generates massive hits using the viral factor that’s how it works and it’s not the road we’ll be going down anytime in the future but it’s certainly juicy enough to be on this site regardless!
