News Spam: Mariah Carey, Kylie Minogue, Britney Spears, Lady Gaga and Grimes

Welcome to a spamming of Diva related news! Each story is too anaemic to deserve a single post, but important enough that I wanted to share and get your opinion on! Enjoy!

Mariah Carey:

OMG, Mariah Carey has a guest appearance in my favourite Seth Macfarlane cartoon, American Dad. (Take that Family Guy!) If I hadn't read about it over at MariahDailyJournal, I would have totally missed her.

In fact I had to watch the clip twice, even though I knew she was going to be in the scene, to figure out which character she actually was. The stupidity of which will become apparent when you see it only has one non cast member in it!

Talk about a crazy use of an A-list celebrity!

[Watch] Kelly Clarkson Performs "Tennessee Waltz" and "Natural Woman" At The 2013 Grammys


Is Kelly Clarkson the most underrated singer of this generation? Sure, people know she can sing, but do they really know just how talented she is? This is a singer who is up there with Christina Aguilera and Jennifer Hudson, but is never mentioned alongside them when people talk of vocal talent. I wonder why that is...maybe her name just slips their mind.

Anyhow, on to her exceptional showing at the 2013 Grammy Award Ceremony. A performance I didn't even see reported on in the media, hence me not knowing it existed until reader Opie informed me of its existence! (I don't have time for the Grammy Awards, in case you didn't know) But I'm glad she did, because not only did Kelly cover the amazingly talented Patti Page and Carol King, singing Tennessee Waltz and Natural Woman, but she delivered, without a doubt, the stand out vocal of the night.

[New Music Video] Rihanna Gets Arty With "Stay" Visuals



The video for Rihanna's Stay has dropped, and once again the Diva surprises.

If I told you that the visuals consisted solely of Rihanna ruminating in a bath tub, I think you wouldn't be too surprised. Most would think it was only a matter of time before she got it all out on film. But as trashy as the concept sounds, the reality is her actual nakedness is the last thing you focus on; it's the emotional nudity that captures, and holds, the attention.

[Watch] Taylor Swift Opens 2013 Grammy Awards

Taylor Swift had the honour of opening the 2013 Grammy Awards, and turned bejewelled ringmaster to do it! Along with the outfit, she accessorised with a massive troupe of circus performers, who made sure the main stage was never boring to behold. With so much occurring on the stage, as well as everyone dressed in white, it was a small wonder Taylor didn't get lost amongst the rabble! But she did a great job keeping the attention firmly focused on herself.
