Bruno Mars to Premiere New Single on October 1 Via Live Chat

\
Peter Gene Hernandez, better known by his stage name Bruno Mars, has been busy working on new material. He broke away from working long enough to share the title of his upcoming first single and it’s called… …’Locked Out of Heaven.’ He will premiere the song on Monday, Oct. 1 at 7PM ET via a live chat and Google + hangout session.

So mark your calendars, Bruno Mars fans, since new music is on the way imminently. The crooner also released a 30-second promo video below, hyping the single premiere and capturing candid footage of him in the studio, doing his thang! Doesn’t he look like a blast to work with and hang out with? Now about ‘Locked Out of Heaven.’

That’s quite a title there, and it doesn’t tell us anything about the tempo, tone or timbre of the song, but we’re sure excited for it. Will it be a ballad? Will it be Mars’ signature, modernized taken on the doo-wop vocal style? Will it be lazy, R&B-flavored pop? There are so many possibilities, given Mars past sonic offerings and his amazing falsetto voice. He’s like this era’s Michael Jackson. And now we’re musing about the subject matter. Is he in hell? Purgatory? Why can’t he get in heaven? See, you got us thinking, Bruno Mars, all with a simple title share.

Chris Brown Blasts Off Into Outer Space in ‘Don’t Judge Me’ Video

Chris Brown Blasts Off Into Outer Space in ‘Don’t Judge Me’ Video by: Trent Fitzgerald Yesterday Chris Brown goes into outer space in the special-effects driven video for ‘Don’t Judge Me,’ his yearning ballad from his ‘Fortune’ album.

The blond-haired singer plays an astronaut who’s about to embark on a dangerous mission for the “sake of the country.” The clip starts off with Brown walking a lonely road to the launch site as he reflects on his tumultuous relationship with his girlfriend. The video also intercuts with scenes of the singer crooning his heartbreaking lyrics while his boo is being despondent on the couch. When a reporter, who also happens to be his girlfriend, asks him why he would risk his life on a suicide mission, he responds, “I’m doing a service for my country and my planet. If that means saving the people I love and I care about, then that’s what I’ll do.”

It’s then we see Breezy walk into this futuristic spaceship as he prepares for liftoff with tears streaming down his face. Upon entering the galaxy we see Brown having flashbacks of his girlfriend before the spaceship collides with a meteorite. Directed by Colin Tiley, ‘Don’t Judge Me’ is an emotional ride with some impressive special effects. We think most of Brown’s detractors would love to see the crooner in real life fly into orbit and crash into a meteorite. Well, for now, you have this moving video.

Freddie Combs Loses 400 Lbs., Sings ‘Wind Beneath My Wings’ on ‘X Factor’

Freddie Combs once weighed 920 pounds. He has worked his tail off to lose 400 pounds, and he’s not done. He is currently seated in a wheelchair, but he wants to be able to lose more weight and stand while singing on ‘X Factor.’ That’s a big goal, but he has the talent to get far on this show.

On tonight’s (Sept. 27) audition episode, Combs, 41, sang the melodramatic ballad ‘Wind Beneath My Wings’ and he made an often corny song sound sweet and emotional, and he infused it with richness and depth. His heavenly, cherubic voice had a honeyed tone like that of Susan Boyle, and he won us over — all while sitting down. Since he was seated due to his size, he used his hands to be expressive and to communicate while singing and it was an effective strategy. But he didn’t need to use his body to entertain us, since his voice did it all.

We learned that Combs, a Southern gentleman, is a minister, but he is on disability due to his obesity. He almost died in 2009 but he is working on getting healthy. The judges loved him, and not because they felt sorry for him or felt sympathy for him due to his condition.

Simon Cowell said that he envisioned Combs singing that very song while standing, and he believes that together, Combs and ‘X Factor’ can do more work to get him to stand and sing that song on the live stage. Going further on the show could help motivate him to continue dropping the weight. We have faith in Combs, too!

He is off to boot camp with unanimous acceptance from Cowell and Co.

The Video will be updated later on this blog. Please Keep in touch..

How I Lost My Virginity – Actress Uche Ogbodo

Nollywood star actress, Uche Ogbodo’s father is one man who has not failed in his duty to foresee the future of her daughter as a star. His decision to enroll her in the movie industry is uncommon among most Nigerian parents whose perceptions about the entertainment industry are inimical to the talents of their children.
But unfortunately, the sexy actress shares the story of how she lost her virginity outside wedlock with great pride and confidence. See what she said below…
How did you lose your virginity?
As I said earlier, I met my first boyfriend at 20. I came from a Christian home and was trained by Christian parents. My father made sure we imbibed the Christian values and this helped me very much in my career as an actress. I actually thought that as a Nollywood actress I was ripe enough to have a boyfriend and this will make me feel more sophisticated. I did not lose my virginity to an actor, you know.
How did you lose it?
I did not stumble on losing my virginity, I was ready for it and I knew what I was getting into.
How did you feel as a woman after losing your virginity?
I was ready, I felt like I was ready to bring the world down. I felt like whatever it is, bring it on.

Happy Birthday David Oyedepo, Lil’ Wayne, Avril Lavigne and Google

We always love to celebrate celebrity birthdays don’t we? And yes it’s double joy when we find out it’s more than just one popular personality adding another year to their age!September 28 is one of those special days – with four great achievers celebrating. David Oyedepo (founder and presiding Bishop of Living Faith Church World Wide also known as Winners Chapel), New Orleans rapper Lil’ Wayne, Canadian singer-songwriter Avril Lavigne and Internet-related products and servicing multinational company Google all marked their birthdays yesterday.
Rock star Avril Lavinge who broke into the music scene 10 years ago turned 28 yesterday. In August, she announced her engagement to Chad Kroeger, front-man of the band Nickelback after they began dating in February 2012.
Oyedepo who turned 58 is one of Nigeria’s most successful evangelists, with millions of followers across the world. His Living Faith ministry has interests in education, publishing, media and real estate. Controversial because of his flambouyant lifestyle, he was in the news for the wrong reasons recently when he faced a N2bn lawsuit for slapping church member. The father of four however beat the case as the court dismissed it over ‘‘lack of merit’.
Google was incorporated as a privately held company in 1998, and its initial public offering followed in 2004. As of September, web traffic reporting company Alexa ranks Google as the number one visited website in the world.
Lil’ Wayne (real name Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr.) who turned 30 released his ‘Dedication 4‘ mixtape on September 3, 2012. He also has four children.

‘I may sign with Chocolate City’ – Waje

It looks like Cholocate City might grab their second female artiste soon and she’s no rookie too. For months, the rumours of the gifted singer Waje joining powerhouse record label Chocolate City has been circulating and while the label has refused to confirm or dispel the news, Waje has opened up on what is really going on. ‘We are trying to see how we can work together. They have been a very strong part of my career since ‘One Naira’ in the sense that they’ve really helped me in many ways.

There is a possibility‘, Waje told Channels TV presenter Victoria Idowu in an interview. Waje was fully introduced to the Chocolate City camp after collaborating with rapper M.I on his 2010 hit ‘One Naira’ off his ‘MI2‘ album. ‘It’s all about getting the right deal, this things do matter at the end of the day. Both Waje and Choc City need to know it’s worth it’, an inside source in Waje’s camp tells NET. Chocolate City have signed two artistes this year – Port Harcourt rapper Pryse and gospel singer Nosa. They now carry a robust roaster of seven artistes – the others being M.I, Jesse Jagz, Brymo, Ice Prince along with an official Disc Jockey – DJ Caise.

Guyz: Would You Marry A Woman Who Earns More Money Than You?

by DJ Stupid Would You Marry A Woman Who Earns More Money Than You? “I have been out of the University for ten years without a job. Getting a job became a big deal in those years. Every advertisement I saw on the papers demanded for five years working experience. How could l have had five years working experience without actually working? So l continued the search until l found a job as a clerical staff in an establishment of sort. I took it even though the pay could not take me home. They say ‘a beggar doesn’t have a choice’. I couldn’t say no to the salary when I didn’t have a better deal elsewhere. I have worked for six years and just got my promotion to the position of a supervisor in the same company. Meanwhile, I have continued to see my sweetheart, Jessica from the University. She finished service and got a good job in a Bank and as it is she is already earning more than I have ever earned… The though of marriage makes me uncomfortable as I want to play my role as ‘the man’ in our household…” So is it still a big deal in this day and age? Does it matter if a woman has a more financially rewarding career than the man she chooses to marry?

RECORD BREAKER: Female Appointed Coach Of Men’s Football Team

RECORD BREAKER: Female Appointed Coach Of Men’s Football Team
A former Croatia Miss Sport finalist and footballer Tihana Nemcic became the first woman to be appointed coach of a men’s club on Tuesday, local media reported.

The 24-year-old Nemcic will coach Croatian fifth division side NK Viktorija Vojakovac.
“I am the head coach and I have full liberty to create and plan the team’s tactics,” she told daily 24 sata (24 hours).
“The guys know the game, but there is a lot more to do,” added Nemcic, who has played for ten years for Dinamo Zagreb’s women’s team and the national squad.
Nemcic said that there was no reason why eyebrows should be raised in her getting the job.
“If a woman and a man have the same professional qualifications for a coaching job, I see no reason why I should not get into male football,” she said.
In 2008, Nemcic, a long-haired blonde, was among 15 finalists for Croatia’s Miss Sport. She said her players “listen to me and make no problems.”
“We are a great team and we all want to improve and reach the top of our league,” she said.

Lady Gaga Comments on Body Revolution, Says Boyfriend Likes Her Curvier

Lady Gaga posted revealing photos of herself in lingerie on her LittleMonsters.com site earlier this week, bravely and boldly responding to the comments that she had gotten fat simply because she packed on a few pounds and sported a curvier frame. She has started what’s being dubbed “Body Revolution,” as her little monsters as also posting photos of their bodies as they are.
Gaga was overwhelmed by the support and the sharing that is going on via her website that she penned and posted an incredibly personal note about how proud she is of what they’ve created.
She also shared that her boyfriend, actor Taylor Kinney, loves her curvy body, and that she is more concerned with being healthy than about meeting critical approval.
Below is the full text of her her post.
I have been startled and overwhelmed with pride and emotion the past few days. Gratitude mostly. Seeing you post photos of things on your bodies and in your minds that you feel society tells you you should be ashamed of. You are showing them you have no shame. You are brave, strong, and accepting not only of yourself, but of others through your experiences. You are proud to be born this way, and brave in your vulnerability with this community. Watching you all create a safe space online for people to be compassionate is the greatest gift you could ever give me. My weight/loss/gain since i was child has tormented me. No amount of help has ever healed my pain about it. But YOU have. My boyfriend prefers me curvier, when i eat and am healthy and not so worried about my looks, I’m happy. Happier then I’ve ever been. i am not going to go on a psycho-spree because of scrutiny. This is who I am. And I am proud at any size. And i love you, and want you to be proud in any form you may take as well. Please don’t look for kindness in critics, go where you know the gold is. Here, in out hearts.
Love,
Gaga

Jay-Z Denies Beyonce Pregnancy Rumors

Julian Finney, Getty Images
Remember those new Beyonce baby bump rumors? Don’t start thinking of names for Blue Ivy‘s new little brother or sister just yet: Jay-Z insists that Queen Bey isn’t gestating a new heir to the throne (or the Throne, as it were).
Pregnancy chatter began when Beyonce was snapped with what could have been a baby bump, a bad angle, folds in fabric or just a little too much salt at lunch. We were skeptical, but geez — Blue Ivy is so beautiful that we were really hoping it was true!
Us Weekly reports that Hov nixed any talk of a new baby on Wednesday night (Sept. 26). When asked if Beyonce was having a new baby, Jay-Z replied, “Tonight? No.” When the press kept pressing the proud papa for details, he diplomatically added, Not in nine months. Absolutely not. Not in one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight or nine months.”
Still, a source insists that the ‘Glory’ rapper and his ‘Love on Top’ singer wife do want more kids and can’t wait to have ‘em — but that there’s no bun in the oven right now. “Jay wants a boy next so they can have one of each,” the source said. “They’re ready for a baby whenever it happens.”
For the record? We’re also totes ready for a baby whenever they are.

LOL Lil Wayne Wilds Out During Lawyer Deposition Over Quincy Jones III Lawsuit


 Lil Wayne doesn’t like to be asked questions, especially from a lawyer. In one of the most insane videotaped legal proceedings ever, Weezy is downright hostile and forgetful in a deposition with Quincy Jones III’s attorney Pete Ross. This all stems from Weezy suing QDIII over the rights of a documentary that the producer filmed called ‘The Carter.’ The Young Money honcho claims he never gave permission to QDIII to use his music in the film. During the video deposition (courtesy of TMZ), Wayne is feisty and aloof while being grilled with questions by Mr. Ross (from top-notch law firm Browne George Ross).

As the interview progresses, Tunechi suddenly begins to have short-term memory loss. When asked if he ever served an 8-month prison sentence at Rikers Island in 2010, Weezy answers, “I don’t remember that.” Wayne doesn’t even “recall” winning his Best Rap Album Grammy for the ‘Tha Carter III’ in 2008. Soon Wayne gets fed up with the questioning and simply tells QDIII’s attorney that the judge, “Can’t save him in the real world.”

“What does that mean?” asked Ross. “Is that a threat against us?” Wayne says no but we think otherwise. “He can’t save you,” Wayne repeats again. “What does that mean?” Ross asked again. “I was talking to myself,” Wayne responds. You gotta watch the video. It’s priceless.

‘Police killed my son, I want justice’

Ozuah and Chinwe Mrs. Chinwe Ozuah, the mother of Ugochukwu Ozuah, the man who was allegedly killed by policemen five days after his wedding, on Thursday in Lagos said the police should be held responsible for her son’s death. Chinwe, who held back tears, recalled that she saw her son a day before the incident, lamenting that she did not know that was the last time she would see him. She said, “The police killed my son and all I want for him is justice.


The last time I saw him was last Wednesday and we spoke. He made so many promises to me but unfortunately he was killed. Family members of the 36-year-old man have again berated the police for the alleged murder and insensitivity. Ugochukwu’s family berated the police not only for the alleged murder but also for their inability to carry out proper investigation. In view of this, the family expressed concern that the police might eventually cover up the case.

The deceased’s friend, Irikefe Omene, who was with the slain man, had told PUNCH Metro that Özuah was killed by policemen around UPS on Oworonsoki Expressway on September 20, 2012. But the police denied the allegation immediately, attributing the incident to armed robbery. The deceased’s elder sister, Nkechi Nnoyelu, berated the Police Public Relations Officer, Ngozi Braide, for insensitivity. She said, “The only son of the family has been killed and yet the police still remain insensitive. The PPRO, who has been granting press interviews, never even deemed it fit to condole with the family.

“The police are saying that my brother was attacked by armed robbers but his phones were not stolen, he had money in his wallet which was untouched and yet they call it a robbery. “It baffles me that the police, were on the scene but they did not even attempt to take him to hospital or give any kind of care, they were all watching.” Nkechi said denial by the police that Omene did not write any statement at the police station was an indication that their investigation would be shoddy. Meanwhile, condolence register had been opened in honour of the slain man.

The deceased’s widow, Joan, sat mute on a chair when our correspondent visited Ozuah’s residence. As at the time our correspondent left the home, nearly 80 condolence messages had been written in his honour. Mrs. Ije Ekobay wrote, “Ugo, I just saw your smiling face two days ago. The devil is a liar! Death has neither say over you nor victory over you. May your sweet soul rest in perfect peace.” Another friend, Tosin Adesina, wrote, “Brother, it was wonderful knowing you. You were a gentleman, intelligent, confident, generous, patient and very driven. I celebrate your life with a lot of pain in my heart.” Perhaps, one of the most emotion-laden comments was written by Ugochukwu’s niece, Nina Ndu-Nwogu. It reads, “Dear uncle Ugo, you were there even when I was in the womb and now you’re gone. I was the flower girl at your wedding and those memories I will cherish forever. When I heard of your departure, I believed you’re in a deep sleep and God needed the help of more angels so he called on you.

You will always be in my heart. I will always love you.” Ukomadu Gabriel wrote, “Oh not again. Another casualty of Nigeria Police Force. You were a quiet and lovely fellow. One would not have imagined this sort of incident. God knows it all, rest in peace.” Our correspondent learnt that various human rights groups, including the Office of the Public Defender of the Ministry of Justice, had started working on the matter to ensure that police did not cover up. Nkechi, who decried the rising cases of extra-judicial killings, said a foundation would be set up in honour of Ozuah. She said, “I want a foundation set up in honour of my brother to help families of victims of police killing. “Ugo used to be called, mummy’s handbag. Even when my dad was alive, he was too close to my mum.

Even though he was my younger brother, he was our father.” IG orders FCID to investigate murder Meanwhile, Inspector-General of Police, Mr. Mohammed Abubakar, has constituted a team from the Federal Criminal Investigation Department to immediately take-over the investigation of the murder from the Lagos State Police Command, with the mandate to identify and fish out the killer(s).

A statement by the Deputy Force Public Relations Officer, Frank Mba in Abuja on Thursday, explained that the IG’s decision was informed by the need to maintain “neutrality, professionalism, speedy and holistic dispensation of justice.” While commiserating with the family, friends and relations of the deceased, the police re-assured the nation that they would ensure that the perpetrators of the crime were unmasked and brought to book.

The statement quoted Abubakar as appealing to members of the public, especially those who might have witnessed the crime, to come forward with useful information. He said such information could be sent to policemonitor@npf.gov.ng. The IG promised that the team would release dedicated phone lines for purposes of interaction with members of the public, as soon as they arrived in Lagos. Abubakar appealed for calm, patience, understanding and support, while efforts are being intensified to unravel the crime.

“The IG also used this medium to dispel rumours making rounds, especially on the social media that he had earlier made a definite statement concerning the incident,” the statement added.

Patience Jonathan battling Parkinson's disease?

Nigeria’s First Lady, Patience Jonathan, is battling an onset of Parkinson’s disease that has complicated her recovery from a surgical procedure in Germany, several reliable sources have disclosed to SaharaReporters. SaharaReporters broke the news that Mrs. Jonathan was flown to a hospital in Wiesbaden, Germany close to a month ago to undergo emergency treatment after a botched procedure in Dubai. In interviews with three sources familiar with Mrs. Jonathan’s health status, SaharaReporters learnt that the Nigerian president’s wife is beset by Parkinson’s disease, a degenerative syndrome.

The disease is a progressive disorder of the nervous system. A medical source described it as “a fairly common disorder that occasions degeneration of the nervous system.” The source added that the disease leads to “progressive impairment and disorder of movement.” An online medical site notes that Parkinson’s “is characterized by progressive loss of muscle control, which leads to trembling of the limbs and head while at rest, stiffness, slowness, and impaired balance. As symptoms worsen, it may become difficult to walk, talk, and complete simple tasks.”

The bombshell revelation about the First Lady’s medical woes was first made by a source familiar with Mrs. Jonathan’s previous secret treatments in Spain and Italy. The source disclosed that Mrs. Jonathan had battled Parkinson’s for some years now. In addition, doctors had advised her to “do something urgent about her morbid body mass index (BMI),” said the source. She added that Mrs. Jonathan had indeed considered undergoing the kind of tummy tuck procedure that former Governor Diepreye Alamieyeseigha once had. Two other sources close to the Jonathans confirmed that the First Lady has been dogged by Parkinson’s. One said the disease was largely responsible for her clumsiness, drawling speech and slow movement at public events. He added that Mrs. Jonathan has been suffering serious trembling in the left hand.

“That’s why she always uses her right to hold the microphone when speaking at public events,” the source revealed. Mrs. Jonathan also reportedly is affected by stiffness of the limbs and trunk which affects her movement. A news staffer at the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) told SaharaReporters that Mrs. Jonathan’s aides warned reporters covering her never to film her beyond her waist. “Her senior personal assistant told the crew covering her long ago: ‘Don’t ever film Madam’s waist. Show her face only.’

That’s been the code at NTA.” Two of our sources stated that Mrs. Jonathan had made efforts to slow the disease that had started to ravage her. “She has been visiting a health farm in Italy on a regular basis since 2010,” one source revealed. “To alleviate her pain, she has been taking her medication religiously.” A friend of Mrs. Jonathan’s said that the First Lady’s health maladies include anxiety, occasional memory loss and disorientation. In addition, her blood pressure often rises to dangerous levels, forcing her to take a cocktail of anti-hypertensive drugs. Also, our sources said that some officials attached to the First Lady’s office described her as constantly depressed, prone to snapping at people at the slightest provocation.

“The First Lady can just get angry at the slightest provocation and rain abuses at anybody in sight,” he said. As happened during the health crisis of the late President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua, the Nigerian Presidency’s reaction to Mrs. Jonathan’s health condition is to be mum. When SaharaReporters contacted a senior aide of President Jonathan on the matter of the First Lady’s illness, he sharply said, “I’m not saying anything. And please don’t mention that you spoke to me.” SaharaReporters learnt that officials of the Presidency are under a virtual oath of secrecy on the issue of Mrs. Jonathan’s health crisis.

Hong Kong businessman offers $65m to any man who can turn his gay daughter straight


Oya, Naija men start dusting your passport...Hong Kong beckons..:-).

(Reuters) – The newly married lesbian daughter of a Hong Kong tycoon who offered a $65 million “marriage bounty” to any man able to win her love, on Thursday said she’d been flooded by marriage proposals but harbored no animosity towards her father.
Since Hong Kong property billionaire Cecil Chao, known in the tabloid media for his prolific womanizing, dangled a $65 million reward for any man able to lead his daughter, Gigi Chao, down the aisle, she says she’s been bombarded by marriage proposals from strangers, date requests, and even an offer from a Hollywood film producer to buy her story.
“War veterans from the U.S., someone from Addis Ababa in Ethiopia, from Istanbul, South America, Portugal, really just from all over the world,” said Chao, sifting through emails on a white Apple laptop in her father’s high-rise office tower.
One suitor from the United States wrote: “I’m interested in your offer to wed your daughter, who also happens to be gay. I am a male person, who also happens to be gay.”
Another put up his brother, a body double to George Clooney in the 2008 sports flick “Leatherheads” as a potential mate: “He could be the picture perfect date that your father craves.”
“I’ve tried my best to respond to well-meaning ones … but most of them I just try not to open,” added the frizzy-haired Chao, who was wearing a silver ring after what she called a “church blessing” with her girlfriend in a Paris church.
Gigi said her billionaire father, who drives a Rolls Royce and flies a helicopter but had a poor early childhood in Shanghai, had been upset when his daughter’s longtime lover revealed the couple had wed in Paris in April, leading to his impromptu HK$500 million “marriage bounty” offer to any man able to set her straight.
“I wasn’t angry at all. I was really quite touched, very touched and very … how should I say? moved, by Daddy’s announcement,” said the 33-year-old.
“I mean, it’s really his way of saying ‘baby girl, I love you. You deserve more,’ basically,” added Chau who works as an executive director in the family firm Cheuk Nang Holdings.
Her 76-year-old father, rarely seen without sunglasses and brand-name clothes, has never married but has boasted of bedding over 10,000 women including models and starle
Chao (right) is believed to have married her girlfriend of seven years Sean Eav (left) in France.

Cynthia's murder: court grants two suspects bail, remands driver

   
  
A Yaba Chief Magistrate’s Court yesterday Wednesday Sept 26th granted bail to two suspects arrested in connection with the alleged murder of Cynthia Osokogu. But  the driver who was accused of driving the prime suspect to Cosmilla Hotel, FESTAC, was remanded in prison custody.
The suspects granted bail – Nonso Ezike (22), who is the younger brother to Olisaeloka, one of the alleged killers, and Ezeaka Chinonso (27) – were arrested by policemen at Area E for receiving and selling Cynthia’s BlackBerry phone.

Nonso’s lawyer, Mr. J. C Ngobili, told the court that the accused was a student of the Federal University of Technology, Owerri, and prayed the court to grant him bail in liberal terms.
The Magistrate, Mr. P.A. Adekomaya, admitted that although the offences were bailable, he pointed out that the bail condition ought not to be too liberal in view of the circumstances surrounding Cynthia’s murder.

Beast killed at Madonna University?


I don't know how to write this story - too bizarre - so I'm going to put it here exactly the way i saw it.

This beast was killed today at Madonna University, Elele. They killed a small one and the bigger one came for revenge. We hear more will be coming. Everybody is scared in the school.
What is that thing? And if you're a Madonna University student, did this really happen in your school today?

Katy Perry Named Billboard’s Woman of the Year

Congratulations to Katy Perry! The singer has been named Billboard’s Woman of the Year — and based on her chart records, it’s a title she more than earned.

Perry is the first (and so far only) woman to have five No. 1 hits from one record, in this case ‘Teenage Dream,’ in the entire history of the Billboard charts. Not even her idol Madonna accomplished that! ‘Teenage Dream’ was on the chart for over 100 consecutive weeks, with a record making 69 weeks with at least one track in the Top 10 of the Hot 100 chart. She even broke Michael Jackson‘s singles record and won the Billboard Spotlight Award for 2012, so this was well-deserved.

Additionally, Perry’s massive 2011 California Dreams tour sold out a whopping 124 arenas worldwide — and donated a large chunk of the ticket sales to various charities. Her heart is almost as big as her … sales! It’s seriously hard to believe she’s only been around the music scene since 2008, because she’s pretty much a constant fixture. She joins previous honorees Beyonce, Taylor Swift and Fergie in nabbing the prestigious award.

“Katy Perry broke into the industry not even five years ago, and has already accomplished more than most artists can hope for in an entire career,” Billboard editorial director Werde said in a statement. “We are thrilled to celebrate these incredible achievements and her amazing past 12 months by honoring her with the Billboard Woman of the Year Award. With what seems like a never-ending supply of record-breaking, chart-topping hits, coupled with her unique and fresh style, Katy Perry is hands-down one of the most exciting and inspiring artists in the industry today.” Indeed, Perry herself as made no secret that she’s calculated in her sales.

When she nabbed the NARM Award in May, she boasted, “It’s really so fun working so hard, because I like reaching my goals — I don’t know about you. I have to say that I do a lot to sell my records. I do the right things … I work very hard! I like to sell out in all the best ways.”

SkyBlu of LMFAO Reconfirms They Are Not Breaking Up

In case it was unclear — and we can’t say we blame him for wanting to doubly confirm, given how out of hand the situation has gotten — SkyBlu, one half of LMFAO, has reconfirmed that the synth pop party rockers are not breaking up.

Last week’s media spiral made it appear that the duo, comprised of Redfoo and SkyBlu, who are uncle and nephew, respectively, had called it quits. But the twosome have moved quickly to quell the rumors and stanch the bleeding. SkyBlu’s statement, released Monday (Sept. 24), read as follows (according to ABC News Radio): LMFAO has not broken up. My uncle and partner, Redfoo, and I have decided to take some time between albums to explore our own interests in music and other areas in entertainment. SkyBlu also reaffirmed both his and his uncle’s commitment to the mission of party rocking and to LMFAO, saying, “Redfoo and I are Party Rockers for life. We love and respect one another and support each other in everything we do.”

PartyRock4Life, yo! Sounds like the twosome needs to get tattoos to prove that they are still an entity. So get it straight. They are each taking time apart to work on other things, which they are well within their rights to do, but that does not spell the end for LMFAO. Get it? Got it? Good.
