3Erik Hassle covers La Roux
One of our favorites has covered a song from another of our favorites. Erik Hassle, who is amidst his campaign promoting Pieces, has covered 2009′s it-band La Roux’s second single “In For The Kill.” This is an marvelous acoustic version. He should record it and make it a B-side on one of his singles.
Must-Watch: Video: “I’m Not Your Toy” by La Roux
As we said before, 2009 is La Roux’s year and this track is the cherry on the top. It’s one of those tracks that a band leaves for emergencies, in case an album tanks. La Roux has a whole lot of hidden gems on there, but this along with “Bulletproof” are the highlights. This could be remixed to be a great club tune with its distinctive riff and her squeaky vocals.
LaToya Jackson thinks brother was murdered

LaToya Jackson believes her brother Michael was murdered for money. She says she knows the perpetrators and is determined to see them brought to justice. She accused the unnamed conspirators of controlling her brother by providing access to addictive drugs.
“Less than a month ago, I said I thought Michael was going to die before the London shows because he was surrounded by people who didn’t have his best interests at heart. He was worth more dead than alive. I believe Michael was murdered, I felt that from the start. Not just one person was involved; rather it was a conspiracy of people.”

Sleeve: La Roux is bulletproof
The cover for the 3rd single from La Roux’s debut self-titled album will be “Bulletproof.” The cover is just fantastical and this one is probably going to be the strongest track on the album, even if I haven’t heard it yet. I am judging purely by the fact that the first single is always the second best and then one that coincided with the album release of a debut artist is usually the gem. I could be wrong.
Nadine Coyle’s Irish pub advertisement
Other than the fact that the flyer is visually deplorable, the Girl Aloud apparently has no interest in setting the calibre of the place to high standards.
Rihanna doing well, recovering during birthday

Rihanna’s posse released a statement on her whereabouts and how she is doing. Apparently, everything is fine and she is back in Los Angeles after a brief break in her native Barbados. She is celebrating her birthday without a the big 200-something bash her record company had planned for her and is apparently on her road to recovery. Chris Brown’s half-assed statement seems to have tinted his image further and anyone that sympathizes with him now is pretty much either a misogynist or a lunatic. The TMZ leak of the battering pictures show that it wasn’t just a tiny scuffle of sorts but a full-blown violent assault that can not be inflicted by anyone other than a criminal.
