He always leaves you wondering what he’s going to do (or say!) next. 

Rihanna Performs at MTV Mobile Bang Concert in Milan, Italy, July 15

  Rihanna was in concert in Milan, Italy on the 15th.  Word is that, as always, she put on a ridiculously hot show. 

She’s always gotten comparisons to Beyonce and Janet Jackson, but it’s apparent that (with all due respect to both of those equally talented performers) she’s very much her own person.  Her style and originality are purely her own.

Love this outfit!

Katy Perry: The Next Big Thing?

Unless you’ve been living in a cave or on a Country Music station, you’ve heard Katy Perry’s “I Kissed a Girl.”   When I first heard the song, I thought it was Amy Winehouse.  But I’d heard all of her stuff and knew she’d never done a song about kissing a girl. Besides, a few lines into the song I realized it wasn’t Amy.

I listened to the end for the DJ to give me the name, but all he said was, “This girl’s getting a lot of comparisons to Amy Winehouse!”  Then he went into details about the weather.

Thanks, guy.

When I got home, I jumped on GOOGLE and soon found out what I needed to know.  That was a few weeks ago and, of course, by now everyone knows Katy.

On his website, Perez Hilton wrote: “If Avril Lavigne were actually talented, pretty, and had an appealing personality, she’d be Katy Perry. She’s got the whole package!”   Ouch.

Katy has said, “I don’t care who I’m compared to as long as people listen to the music.  Usually I find it funny to say I’m like a skinnier version of Lily Allen and a fatter version of Amy Winehouse. It always renders a good chuckle.”

Katy’s gaining a monstrous following - it’ll be interesting to see where this all goes.  She very well be the next big thing.

Skechers Signs American Idol Winner David Cook as Their New Spokeperson

Skechers has signed American Idol winner David Cook to endorse the brand globally. Smart move, I’d say. He’s as popular as Daughtry right now and should definitely have the sort of success Chris Daughtry has found.

Like Carrie, David will prove to be a perfect spokesperson. They’re both hugely popular, likable, mega-talented and can bring in droves of fans. Also, unlike Taylor Hicks, they won’t prove to be jokes played on the AI audience by the AI audience.

Don’t you know American Idol would love to purge him from the list of winners?

I’m surprised Jordin Sparks hasn’t gotten any endorsement deals. She would be a perfect make-up model, or a spokesmodel for Candie’s. She’s a ridiculously beautiful girl. She’s also very sweet, likable, and friendly.

Kelly Clarkson seems to have disappeared from the media again. I hate it when she goes missing. I wonder if her cd would have sold more and gotten more radio play if her record company had actually supported her. Personally, I think the answer’s yes on both accounts. When her cd came out, the buzz was everything she could hope for. She was on the radio all the time. Then the news came out that Clive Davis didn’t even like her cd and everyone who was supposed to “have her back” had a knife in it.

All of a sudden, Kelly was nowhere to be found. Ridiculous. She’s still one of the most talented singers and song writers around. I’ve put a few videos featuring Kelly to the side in the featured video slots… you know…. to kind of back up my rant.

Great stuff.
