Jessica Simpson: The Meltdown in Michigan

Posted by Fara Kearnes at 9:42 PM | Permalink | Comments ( 0 )

jessica It was two years when Jessica Simpson had a major meltdown on stage during the Kennedy Center Honors, and whatever live performance jitters she had then are still an issue for her. She had another "off night" again! She was onstage in Grand Rapids Thursday night in front of a crowd of 8,000 when she paused for a water break while singing "With You" while the backup singers took over.

From then on, the 38-minute set was a train wreck. According to reports, she stopped during "Pray Out Loud" and told the band to start over, she forgot the words to "Come on Over", and during “These Boots Were Made for Walking" she stopped singing to complain she couldn't hear her earpiece.

lil kim Rapper Lil Kim was a Big part of the late Notorious B.I.G.'s life but she ain't happy with ~~not being cast in the movie~~ the way she's portrayed in the biopic about him. She has issued a hissy fit statement to the AP about Biggie Small's 'Notorious':

"The film studio and producers involved were more concerned about painting me as a 'character' to create a more interesting story line instead of a person with talent, self-respect and who was able to achieve her own career success through hard work."

Beyonce Says Jackson Family is Lower Class

Posted by Fara Kearnes at 3:12 PM | Permalink | Comments ( 3 )

beyonce Beyonce Knowles has created a hip hop beef with Janet Jackson - by suggesting that the Jackson clan is lower class. Beyonce allegedly said: “I grew up upper class. Private school. My dad had a Jaguar. We’re African-American and we work together as a family, so people assume we’re like The Jacksons. But I didn’t have parents using me to get out of a bad situation.”

It's on! Janet Jackson, who barely knows Beyonce, is going to support her family to the fullest and confront the former Destiny's child singer about the slam.

BBC Pulls Paul McCartney's Michael Jackson Impersonation

Posted by Fara Kearnes at 3:05 PM | Permalink | Comments ( 1 )

The BBC was shocked - Shocked! - when Sir Paul McCartney did an impromptu "trans-racial" impersonation of Michael Jackson on the air. McCartney is said to have talked in a high-pitched Jackson-style voice when asked about the ~~once-black-man turned middled-aged white-woman~~ singer, which the usually insensitive and over-the-top BBC decided was too outrageous, even by ~~non-existent~~ British standards.

A BBC source told the Daily Mail: "McCartney started to reply in this high-pitched Jacko voice, and apparently it was very funny. But the BBC - deeply nervous, perhaps because of the Jonathan Ross-Russell Brand affair - has declined to broadcast the interview."
