Not big fans of Trey Songz. But the audacity of the title made us watch it and, let’s just say, it was a treat. It’s like he took the message in Justin Timberlake’s “SexyBack” and upped it a notch.

How to open a bottle of wine without a corkscrew…
No more chipping away at the cork with key and then pushing it down for a messy little red volcano of the valuable stuff. Now, slime it and then bang it against a well (Parisian preferably) with your shoe.
Recyclable, disposable laptops…
They did it with cameras and it worked perfectly. If it’s environmentally friendly, then why not? The is a new idea proposed and it will probably takes years to become reality. Click below for the breakdown.
Amerie performs on the Wendy Williams show
Amerie is on the promotional tour for her album In Love & War, which already has a bunch on singles released from it but doesn’t quiet have the oomph. She did a swish of hair and called a figure-8. It’s nothing new. She should experience Arabian Gulf dancing.

6
Lady GaGa’s collaborative effort with Beyonce on her single “Video Phone” will be out today, November 5th. So, at anytime expect an early leak or the official debut. It’s supposed to be some sort of remix that incorporates Lady GaGa in the mix of a song that, really, is not that great. This is exchange for a cameo on GaGa’s The Fame Monster called “Telephone,” which is the only song prodiced by Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins. I Am… Lady Fierce!
Taylor Swift pranked on the Ellen Degeneres Show
She fell hard. Ok, no more pranks for Taylor Swift in 2009.
Skye Edwards of Morcheeba secretly released second album
10
Skye Edwards, former frontwoman of Morcheeba, has released an album and nobody knew about it. Even Wikipedia doesn’t list it. Some major retailers don’t have it. It’s aptly titled Keeping Secrets. We currently can’t find it anywhere. Her MySpace pages says little about it. Why?
200 flies at Frankfurt’s Book Fair
To promote their book fair and bring attention to it some people gathered 200 flies and attached banners to them. That’s a way to advertise. Don’t worry about the flies though, the banners were super light and attached with wax that will eventually fall off.
Sexy new “Barracuda” sunglasses…
If you want to make a statement. Then this is it. We want.

Kathy Griffin gets another TV Show
Kathy Griffin has her famous TV show My Life On The D-List, which is successful and already on it’s 6th season (soon). But, that’s not enough for one of the hardest working comediennes in the world. Our second favorite red-head (after Tori Amos) is actually going to be the host of a new TV show called Let’s Dance that is set to debut right after the finale of So You Think You Can Dance. Anything for Kathy is love.
Premiere: Video: “Fragile” by Chrisette Michele featuring Wale
The songstress with one of the greatest album of the year, Chrisette Michele, is back with another single to support her number one album, Epiphany. This one is not one of the strongest tracks and it didn’t need the horrid Wale rap. But, it’s still good. She should have release “Another One” or “Porcelain Doll”
Technology advances spit balls…

Oh, how we love it when the advent of science and technology come together to serve the purpose of pranking people or generally benefiting elementary-school humor. Yes, some scientists with a great sense of fun have created this 5-dollar a pack bunch of polymer balls that one can use to tease anyone. No more tissues, we’re getting advanced here.
Must-Watch: Mariah Carey speaks of Rihanna, motherhood and spousal abuse
3Mariah is promoting a movie and an album, so it’s time to dish some dirt. She speaks of Rihanna and sympathizes with her. She decided to keep her physical abuse issues to herself and not discuss them on Larry King Live even when they are highlighted in her song “Side Effects.” She also talks about the word “Diva,” the undying question of her pregnancy and new projects.
Sheryl Crow readies up re-issue of “Tuesday Night Music Club”
Sheryl Crow’s debut album Tuesday Night Music Club was a monumental album. It changed the way female singers/songwriters are perceived in the music industry and put Sheryl’s name in the middle of the rock map. It is packed with greatly-written songs and tracks that defined a decade. Who could speak of the 90s’ without mentioning “All I Wanna Do” or “Leaving Las Vegas?” Also, no crush compilation would be the same with the vulnerable ballad “Strong Enough.”
That being said, it’s comes as no wonder that Sheryl is actually preparing a re-issue of this epic album with everything from that time that wasn’t made available originally. The album is also going to have a single released by the name of “Killer Life.” The new packaging will have a 3-disc set, a documentary, new tracks, remixes and a lush booklet. It will be release on November 17th. Click below for the complete tracklisting.
