Sad news reaches us that Delta Goodrem and Brian McFadden have officially announced the end of their seven year relationship.
The pair first met when recording the track Almost Here in 2004 and then announced their engagement in 2007. However their conflicting work schedules have meant they have been apart a lot recently and grown apart. In an official statement released by the couple.
"This decision has been made with a lot of soul searching from both parties with the realisation that they have grown apart.
"They leave the partnership with respect for one and other, wishing each other success and happiness for the future."
We hope both are doing well and seeking comfort in friends and family.

Bob Marley performing "Exodus" at Santa Barbara , California back in 1979. I more of a live set guy... although I do like autotune... yeaaa I LIKE autotune hah... but as much as the professionally mastered version makes a record sound "perfect", seeing and hearing the artist perform live right before you... its just better. You get to really experience the emotions that were meant to be shown... instead of seeing a representation of what should be shown in what is generally threw another persons eyes. Check out this live performance of Bob Marley~

Whilst being on the road, Kylie admitted in The Metro interview she would love the chance to collaborate with Britney Spears earlier this week, now Britney has replied to her comments saying that would be a “brilliant” idea!
Speaking on Capital FM Britney has replied to Kylie’s comments live on air saying, "I think that would be brilliant. I think that would be so much fun."
When asked what type of tune the due could sing, our Britters said "I'd do a pop record. She's great. I love her."
Well, no question it would be pop honey, it’s not like a you @ Kylie duet would be a rock anthem!
We are not sure how we feel about this yet. We love both K & B for different reasons but not sure how this collaboration would work!
Whilst we ponder this thought, we’ll leave you with Kylie getting the crowd going in Berlin leg of her tour!

Here is the premiere of Katy Perry's new music video for her #1 hit, "E.T." featuring Kanye West.
Visually, the video was awesome, this is probably one of the best videos out this year, so far. It looks a like a out of space adventure to find her lover.

And I heard Frank Fetti is working on some fire with Leedz Edutainment behind the recording... I'll have a track for y'all soon!
I've had my misgivings with Katy Perry and her seeming lack of sincerity with her whipped-cream-tits career in the past, but with the visually-stunning video for her single "E.T."—which is #1 on the Hot 100 this week—the teenage dreamer appears to have finally given in to the idea of making some classy art for once!
I will say one last time that Kanye West is so unnecessary on "E.T." (he does not feature on the original album version). Still, director Floria Sigismondi does a good job of relegating him to the background.
Anyway, there's something altogether creepy about Katy here, particularly the scene where she's floating toward the fallen robot and her head lurches forward. Then there's the bit where she kisses the robot, her deer legs are revealed and the alien boy's butt is shown.
Pretty rad video for one of the standout songs from Teenage Dream.
I imagine there will be numerous comparison's to Lady Gaga's equally-spacey "Born This Way" video. But I'm Team Katy in this case. "E.T." is far more colorful, and much less depressing.
Exclusive MAX B RADIO INTERVIEW from yesterday (3/30/2011).
I'm glad I stumbled across this, I honestly never heard "I Need My Money"... Im feelin this!!! Max always be going in, but this just has that feel good vibe to it... just makin you want to rock out to it~
LOL could this be where Charlie Sheen got his inspiration!?!? Lol I doubt it... but this whole "Winning" phase is definitely a turning point in his career... and ultimately his life. Most people think he's gonna "Fail" instead, but many of those individuals aren't aware of Charlies every action. I stumbled across this segment of Charlie and his "winning" ways, definitely check it out. Charlie does have 'Tiger Blood' and he isn't as dumb as some people think he is. Charlie Sheen might be alittle out there and messed around with the wrong... well there's a few things he shouldn't of messed around with hah but we aren't gettin into that, who am I to judge the man. All I can say is Charlie is doing his thing and it looks like he's enjoying it.... hopefully it doesn't come back and bite him in the ass.
Very cool trippy Adidas video I stumbled across... Adidas (France) is the first big company to really utilize this new 3D projection mapping . And maybe others are doing it more but I haven't seen any of their videos yet hah. They promoted 'Adidas is All in' campaign at the Palais du Pharo in Marseille, France for the first time. Full of athletes and cool visual effects, I'm waiting for something like this to come to BOSTON... or Massachusetts... or even New England or New York! This is dope!
Bangs "Take U To Da Movies" Official Music Video! If you don't know about Bangs check this out, he's from Sudan... in Africa for yall that don't follow the news or anything. Sudan is literally a war zone... its not as bad as it was but its still bad. I'm write a post about it to fill yall in... here's the link ... but just realize if you wanna hate, despite his rap skills not being as good as lets say African rapper K'Naan, I still give him props for doing his thing. And in my book as of right now, he's the best rapper in Sudan! hah yup yup

With Katy Perry reaching No.1 in the US Billboard charts this week, she has a lot to be happy with, even if her mother isn't with her (still).
And next week is looking good too after completing her new video for E.T. feat Kanye West. It is due to be aired on Monday at 7:53pm however thanks to our friends at MTV.com, we have a sneak peak at her new video. See what you think!
Katy Perry's "E.T." jumps to #1 on the Hot 100 this week, thus becoming her fourth consecutive chart-topping single off Teenage Dream, and fifth song to reach the peak on the chart overall. (Yes, folks, Katy Perry has had more #1s than Lady Gaga. And Pink. And Britney Spears.)
"E.T." also gives Swedish songwriter/producer Max Martin an 11th chart-topping hit in the U.S., and his first since Weaveney's "Hold It Against Me"debuted at #1 in January. Katy's latest addictive slice of trash was co-produced by Dr. Luke and Ammo, and one can't help but wonder if Max and Luke have reached the point of complete over-saturation in the pop market at this point? You really can't throw a wadded up gum wrapper at the chart without hitting a "Raise Your Glass" here, a "Dynamite" there or a "Price Tag" up Jessie J's thong.
Oh, well, speaking of Wigney, Dr. Luke and Max Martin, "Till The World Ends" makes a slight rebound and moves up one position to #22 in its third week on the Hot 100. And outside the Top 40, soul legend Rebecca Black climbs from #72 to #58 with her instant funk classic "Friday."
Over on the Top 200 album chart, Duran Duran's All You Need Is Now re-enters at #29 after the release of the physical CD, and marks the British band's highest-charting album since Astronaut reached #17 in 2004.

According to The Sun – Amy Winehouse was seen giving away her Alexander McQueen dresses and other designer gear to a local charity shop in North London. Recently moving house has proved a good time for Amy to have a spring clean of her home adding to staff she love cleaning in her undies!
As long as its helping with your new material Amy, we are fully supportive!
Seems Kelly Rowland is ready to step out once again on her own (instead of featuring on someone else’s dance track) by announcing her first single of her new album will be Motivation featuring Lil Wayne.
Announcing on her website she was searching for looks for her new video. “I’m aiming for a very sexy, feminine video and I’m looking for womanly, sexy designs,” said Rowland.
Currently being played a lot in the U.S, the video is set to air on
Monday 4th April. If you haven't heard Ms Kelly's track, check it out below
In just one week, Britney Spears has drawn a line in the proverbial pop sand and divided her followers—all by being just, well, Britney Spears. After a period of seclusion over the past two months, this broad was suddenly all over the place.
2. Two days later the Weaved One hauled her big fat bass to the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco (rain caused her to head indoors and protect her wig, rather than go forward with a planned outdoor gig in The Castro). Same set as Vegas.
3. Rugney's seventh studio album (and best, most cohesive so far) Femme Fatale hit U.S. iTunes at midnight on Monday night, and by morning overtook Songs For Japan as the top download.
4. Mimeney's San Fran performance aired Tuesday on Good Morning America, during which she told host Robin Roberts she'd be heading out on a North American tour with Enrique Iglesias this summer. Haters and fans alike called the entire half-assed appearance a career low.
5. Oopsney! Hours later, news came that Enrique had pulled out of the joint tour. Word on the street was that the Latin heartthrob felt he wouldn't be getting enough cash/equal billing. And just why would she need him anyway? Didn't the Circus Tour rake it in two years ago? Has Lethargicney really become so lazy that she needs someone else to entertain her audience?
6. Next the world was thrown into utter chaos when Rivalney was tweeted at in a well-meaning manner by Christina Aguilera: "Hey @BritneySpears Congrats on Femme Fatale release! Can't wait to see what you bring in the next video. xo" [Careful, Wigwamney—that ho probably wants to borrow money or a yacht or something.]
7. Tweetney later wrote back to Xtina: "Thanks @TheRealXtina. Can't wait to watch you on your new show. Hope we get to hear that voice on The Voice." [I'm chalking that up as a slam!]
8. Tuesday night, ABCney did a funny skit with the dorks from Jackass on Jimmy Kimmel Live, wherein she gets bungie-launced into the air while inside a port-o-potty. She also did a half-funny skit with Kimmel. Redemption for GMA!
9. More chaos! Did Braveney actually flip her mic on while singing "Hold It Against Me" for the Kimmel crowd?
10. On Wednesday afternoon, Hits Daily Double projected that Femme Fatale will indeed become Cashney's sixth #1 album next week, after guesstimated sales of about 275,000 to 300,000 copies. That's a far cry from the 505,000 Spears' last LP Circus sold out of the gate, and more on par with the first-week numbers Blackout—her only album to not reach #1—did in fall 2007. (Of course, the damn thing didleak two-and-a-half weeks early.) We shall wait and see.
Anyway, here's "Scary," a Fraser T. Smith-produced bonus track on the Japanese version of Femme Fatale that clearly should have been on the album proper:
Here is Britney Spears first set of performances that aired on Good Morning America, to promote the US release of her new album "Female Fatale".
By watching, I don't think that Britney has it anymore when comes to performing, I think those performances was horrible. The lip singing, I expect that from her because she's not a great singer. When it comes to the dancing department, Brit has just lost it. It seems to me that her performing been going down hill since the "Black Out" era.
Another thing I don't understand is that, a lot of people are praising her performances and I want to know why?
Britney announced that she'll be touring this June with Enrique Iglesias but lately its been said that he dropped out of the tour. But anyway, the details of the tour have not been announced yet.
After a week of its release and a meltdown, Chris Brown's new album, "F.A.M.E", debuts at No. 1.
F.A.M.E. has sold 270,000 copies in its first week, according to Nielsen SoundScan, but was reported by Billboard.com.
This album seems to have sold more than "Graffiti" in its first week in 2009. Graffiti was his lowest first week only selling 107,000 copies. F.A.M.E is also his first album to reach the top spot.
Katy Perry's fourth single "E.T." featuring Kanye West have officially hit the #1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart. The new single, "E.T.", rises 2-1 this week, ending the six week reign of Lady Gaga‘s latest single, "Born This Way".
This gives Katy’s new album "Teenage Dream", its fourth # 1 hit single, right along with "California Gurls", "Teenage Dream", and "Firework".
First Jennifer Lopez's surprise comeback hit "On The Floor" didn't suck (though, don't get me started on the video). And then that "Invading My Mind" song Lady Gaga and RedOne generously worked on together for the American Idol judge showed even more promise with regards to J.Lo's upcoming Love? album.
And now we have "I'm Into You," which, despite the lyrically uninspired rap from Lil Wayne, somehow doesn't exactly make me want to force a rusty railroad tie into the front of my skull either.
Below is the official 30-second tease of the song. I'd post the full thing, but it's been getting yanked down left and right all day.
"I'm Into You" will be tossed onto iTunes next week (April 5). A press release issued today notes that Love? (out May 3) features production work by RedOne, Stargate, Tricky Stewart, The-Dream, Danja, D-Mile and Radio.
In addition to "Invading My Mind, Lady Gaga co-wrote the song "Hypnotico" for the album.
Nice to see Robyn getting some decent exposure! The Swede-pop pixie, who topped Chart Rigger's year-end 10 Best Pop Singles lists in both 2007 and 2010 graces the cover of fashion mag Elle's upcoming "music issue," which will also highlight Gwen Stefani, Nicki Minaj, Willow Smith and Florence Welch, among others, inside.
The music edition of Elle hits newsstands on April 11.
News reaches us that Amy Winehouse is set to return to the music charts this year and is busily in the studio working on new material. It will be the newly sober singer’s first recorded material since 2007.
Amy’s boyfriend, Reg Traviss said "She's still writing and recording stuff for her new album. “She's really throwing herself into it," he stated.
Traviss added that Winehouse is "very excited" about her new material, but he didn't give much away about the content.
She’ll first release a duet, set to be released on September 19 as a part of Tony Bennett’s Duets II album, her first recording since the smash hit Valerie.
We all witnessed Amy fall from grace as she publicly battled drug addiction however in October 2010 she told Glamour magazine that she was clean: “I used to use drugs and I haven’t used drugs in almost three years.”
She added: “I literally woke up one day and was like, ‘I don’t want to do this any more.”
Good for you Amy!
It will be good to see you back in the charts once again!
Sadly No! However they were allseen together in support of their ex bandmate Jon Lee, who was making his West End Musical debut.
Thanks to our friends at The Sun you can check out what they look like now.
S Club 7 took the charts and TV by storm between 1999 - 2003 cranking up four No.1 and their TV show ( Miami 7, LA.7 etc etc ) was sold worldwide. Then in March 2002 the first band member (Paul) left the group. From then, they tried to make it as a 6 piece but when their album Seeing Double failed to sell, they separated and ventured off into solo projects. Jon, Bradley & Jo tried to make a comeback as S Club 3, however that fell flat on its face too. Jo is reported to be working on new material and Tina ( she was tall brunette one ) is still trying to get a track out age 34!
So it doesn't look like we should be expecting any new material from any of them soon, but love to see a reunion and that they all can stand to be in a room together!
Oh well. We'll settle for a good old classic! Try and not sing along to this one!
Since talking about Girls Aloud, we have felt a bit low at SCP HQ!
So we thought we'd monitor the movements of the girls ( Cheryl, Nadine, Sarah, Nicole & Kimberley) to see if they would give an inclination of reforming soon.
Then BAMM!
Sarah Harding seen on Absolute Radio, hoping for a reunion next year to mark their 10 year anniversary! Jeez has it been 10 years!
So we'll be watching all the girls movement/interviews from now until next year in hopes more signs of a comeback!
Some may call this stalking we call it monitoring!
Following on from our feature on Oh Land the other day, news has reached us from the U.S that the Danish singer has released the first track album of her forthcoming album, also called Oh Land.
