“I’d like to go to all the pretty parties
where all the pretty people go
and I ain’t really all that pretty
but nobody will know
cuz everybody loves you
when you’re a star
and nobody questions
what it takes to go that far”
- Ani DiFranco from “The Million You Never Made”
Lady Gaga’s ex-boyfriend suing her for 30.5 million!
Lady Gaga’s former boyfriend Rob Fusari is suing her for 30.5 million dollars because he allegedly claims that he came up with the concept behind the Gaga and then she ran away with it without giving him any credit. He’s probably just bitter and wants some of that fame, no pun intended. An since when did coming up with a concept cost that much money.
Video Premiere: “Million Dollar Girl” by Trina featuring Diddy and Keri Hilson
Who buys Trina stuff anymore? Even with two powerhouses like Keri Hilson and Diddy it still doesn’t swing well.
Sade sells half a million in first week!
Legend and chill chanteuse Sade and her band have managed to defy both the recession and the piracy problem by selling half a million records in the US in the first week of their release of Soldier Of Love. the album comes after an approximate decade’s hiatus and delivers exactly what the fans have known their brand of music to be. It, of course, lands at #1 this week.
Whitney Houston does “Million Dollar Bill” for French TV
She doing all the big market capitals in Europe. First Germany, now France. She is leaving out the UK until last because the album will be released there much later even though the import section at record stores is practically all I Look To You copies. This single is a grower and her vocals (on it) are up to par.
Premiere: Video: “Million Dollar Bill” by Whitney Houston
4It’s finally here. The video to “Million Dollar Bill” by Whitney Houston from her highly-touted album I Look To You. The video is nice and does her well. As nice as videos get for big-time artists in the download age. She’s back.
Premiere: Video: “I Look To You” by Whitney Houston
“Million Dollar Bill” was supposed to be the first single from I Look To You. We were surprised that this ballad came first, but it makes sense. People want the old Whitney back. This is the closest thing. She’s looking demure and preened, isn’t she?
Whitney Houston’s “Million Dollar Bill” renditions are here…
Whitney Houston is officially back
I Look To You is out now and then 7-year wait is over! Not too sure about all these rave reviews. It’s not that lush, but it has some kind of momentum. Maybe because of the long haitus or it’s a good LP, haven’t decided which one yet. And all these songs are “hit songs?” Not really. None are. “I Look To You” and “I Didn’t Know My Own Strength” are two early leaks.
“Million Dollar Bill” is the single but it has yet to make a wave or two. There’s still no video for it, which is very unusual for a big time artist to have an album out before the first video. Maybe it’ll debut soon to bring in the buzz. At any rate, it’s an Okay album and that’s about it. Maybe the remixes will pull it up. Click below for her Ebony cover and a vintage clip of cheese.

“Million Dollar Bill” – the Alicia Keys-penned disco number that is set to bring Whitney Houston back to the forefront of divaland has been leaked. It’s making the illegal blog rounds right now. Not that we love following the law. Anyway, this cover for the single hits too close to Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel territory. Mariah won’t be mad though she loves Whitney.
Whitney Houston announces “Mill Dollar Bill”

As expected, the mediocre ballad “I Didn’t Know My Own Strength” is not the first song from Whitney Houston’s highly-anticipated return of an album I Look To You. It was just a teaser track that was probably leaked by the Arista execs to build up some hype around the new album. Whitney has officially stated that an uptempo track done with Swizz Beatz titled “Mill Dollar Bill” will be the official first single. The track was written by none other than Alicia Keys.
Movie: Slumdog Millionaire स्लमडॉग मिलिनेयर (2008)

With all the hype surrounding it and the fact that M.I.A. is heavily featured on the soundtrack, I had to check the movie out from the same director that gave us Trainspotting, 28 Days Later and Millions.
The movie is a slice of freshness from a perspective rarely voiced in mainstream cinema. This 15 million dollar budgeted flick follows Jamal Malik’s entire young life while splicing How Wants To Be A Millionaire questions between events.
The plot takes turns and twists as he becomes a young man of courage and independence. The character is belittled by everyone for being a menial chaiwalla, he proves himself through poverty, betrayal, corruption, the mafia, being orphaned at an early age and jumping in a pool of shit just to get Amitabh Bachchan’s autograph.
Amy Winehouse to divorce…
Apparently, Amy Winehouse is seeking a secret divorce from Blake-on-longer-incarcerated after he asked her to pay his rehab bills of £30,000 (KD 13,000). She hasn’t seen him since he came out and is planning to work out a divorce without handing him the £10 million (KD 4.2 Million) settlement. Consequently, love is a losing game.
