Looking to build on the success of Chris Brown collaboration ‘Champion’, Chipmunk recently flew out to Los Anglese to shoot a video for the follow-up single, ‘In The Air’ with sexy singer Keri Hilson.
Rick Genest aka Zombie Boy shot to fame after starring in Lady Gaga’s ‘Born This Way’ video earlier this month, and now it seems the Canadian tattoo fiend is a fashion model as well after signing up to model the latest line from Thierry Mugler.
The 25 year old has had the upper half of his body covered in $7000 worth of tattoos as a tribute to his beloved horror movies, and until January was living on the streets of Montreal, where he was living as a ‘bum’, doing everything from window-cleaning to performing as a circus freak to pay for his next tattoo.
After being spotted by Nicola Formichetti, Gaga’s stylist and also the new creative director for Thierry Mugler, he is not only a video star, but a catwalk one as well.
Produced by Diplo & Switch aka Major Lazer, this blusey dubstep number is the latest from north Londoner Alex Clare who is tipped for big things this year. Nice vid as well. Samurais in some abandoned Shoreditch building. Those crazy guys and their swords.
Ok, he may be 17 years old, mega-famous, drive a car and have a pop star girlfriend, but that doesn’t mean that Justin Bieber can’t indulge in a little toy shopping now and then.
In town for his O2 shows, the ‘Never Say Never’ singer shared an Indian meal with fellow tour star Willow Smith at La Porte Des Indes before heading to the famous Hamleys on Regent Street.
Willow clearly was impressed by something, whilst Bieber hit the cuddly toy depart, possibly so as to get a teddy bear for girlfriend, Selena Gomez?
But Sel, wasn’t the only person, Justin was purchasing a gift for… he also picked out something for the waiting paps outside……………. a toy gun!
With her latest single ‘Don’t Hold Your Breath’ looking like it could finally topple Adele from the top-spot this weekend, Nicole Scherzinger is gearing up for the release of new album ‘Killer Love’ next week.

Albeit a very blurry one…
A new demo track by former Sugababes member Keisha Buchanan has hit the internet called ‘Under Cover’.

After the shambles that was the “Best I Ever Had” video Drake, with a little help from Trey Songz, is trying again – this time with a video for “Successful”
Let’s see if Mr “buzz so big I can even sell a blank disk” get’s it right this time around.
The Buzz| The most talked about new artist in Hip-Hop
The Makeup | Twenty two years of age. Canadian born. Actor/ Rapper/ Singer
The Hype | Best I Ever Had
Is there a reason you have done limited press? You are hot property right now?
Yeah I’m very selective with everything I do, but part of the reason is like a lot of people don’t really know how to get in touch with me. They have me working so hard in terms of touring and stuff that it’s so hard for me to get a moment to even sleep, you know? I’m always in the studio, and then when I’m not I’m trying to catch a necessary couple of hours sleep. So I mean it’s been a hectic few months.
Did you expect the mixtape to cause such an impact?
Well first of all I’d like to say thank you very much, I mean you could never say I expected it to happen or I expected it to ’cause this much of a frenzy and buzz but I’m very grateful for it. The best part about it for me is that the mixtape is very genuine to me, very authentic and very much who I am as a person. So for the audience to love it, that just lets me know that I can be myself in this game and continue to give them the most honest and pure form of Drake.
There’s a line in the mixtape where you say “Now the hipsters have to get on with the hood n****s.” What were you implying by that?
You know, I’ve come from a TV show [Degrassi] and I have worked with Lil Wayne, so I think my fan base is complied of a lot of different people. Like I got fans who listen to the Cool Kids and stuff like that, then real fans in the slums, like in New Orleans or in the hood. I got a letter in the mail the other day from a dude who’s in prison doing a stretch, and he’s talking about how my music gets him through. I don’t know how he got my music in jail but he says my music really speaks to him and like when I go to New Orleans to perform with Lil Wayne, I always get people from the hood coming up to me and showing their love. They love the joints that are about life, and that is my life but everyone can relate to it. When I’m doing shows I feel like they’re are so many different people there from so many different walks of life and I think it’s a great thing to be able to appeal to so many different things.
Has it been a hard transition from “Fitting In” to “Standing Out”?
I don’t know I mean writing about yourself it’s a methodical process, but often I feel more confident about myself. I’ve accepted all of the things that people may see as flaws or that I may see as flaws as a part of me. I think that before I was worried and tried to fit in; like in high school I was always trying to fit in. I was lost about who I was and now I stand out. I stand out as a young but aware and ready guy and that was the gist of that line. That transition is a big thing. [click to continue…]
