JoJo and B.o.B Deliver An Accoustic Rendition of "John Doe"

I just fumbled upon this acoustic performance by JoJo and B.o.B for a song called John Doe. Going through B.o.B's videos to sniff out the studio version, I discovered the album version featured a singer called Priscilla and was actually released way back in January- so you guys have probably already heard the song.

Still, since we're waiting on the newly emancipated  JoJo to release an album, I thought I'd post this tale of substance abuse. Just don't expect any bells and whistles from JoJo's vocals, as she keeps the embellishments in check and refrains from any range-y flights of fancy here.

Yeah, it's not the greatest of songs- and I actually prefer the original's vocal- but it does show those who think JoJo can't help but overdo the singing that she can tone it down when she wants.

Is Anyone Here Checking For Rita Ora?

Rita Ora is a Diva that doesn't get much of a mention over here. And I don't see that changing anytime soon if her new single I Will Never Let You Down is any indication of the material her second album is bringing.

So why am I posting this video for her latest single? Well, I'm interested in hearing if any of you guys are stanning for the British/ Kosovan belle. Apart from R.I.P and Hot Right Now, I haven't managed to be all that bothered about her career, despite Roc Nation forcing her down my/our/the world's throat. (Seriously, I can't believe the exposure they have gotten her thus far).

But let me know if you guys feel differently (or the same), below!

Did Shakira Lip-sync "Empire" @ The Voice (US)?

Shakira may not have the most conventional singing voice, but boy does she know how to put her unusual pipes to great use. Having occupied a judge's chair on The Voice (US) this season, it was finally the turn of the Colombian Diva to show America why she deserved to be critiquing other people's voices by performing her own song, Empire.

Happy Easter, everyone! Sorry about not commenting on the contest post yet. Just started a new job and am currently getting used to the switched up hours I'm working. Should be acclimatised in a week or so!

Beyonce And Solange Get Down Together @ Coachella 2014

Do you have an urge to see Beyonce and Solange work a little choreography together at Coachella 2014? It's kinda cute! To be fair, you're not missing much if you give this video a pass- the sound quality is particularly poor. It's more about the joy on their faces than anything else.

Sisters be doing it fo' themselves...Enjoy.

Rihanna And Eminem Perform "The Monster" @ MTV 2014 Awards

The pairing of Rihanna and Eminem has become one almost guaranteed to produce a hit record, so expect loads more to come from the duo. Their latest collaboration, The Monster, didn't do much for me, but it clearly did for others having battled to the top of Billboard and gone triple platinum.

Even though it was 2013 when the song hit the top of the charts, it took till this year's MTV Movie Awards for the Diva and rapper to deliver its first live performance. But you wouldn't have guessed that from watching this, as there were no blips or bumps present. (Though the fan video I found could hide a multitude of sins.)

It may have been their first rendition of the song, but I'm guessing they'll be a fair few more to come  as the pair embark on their combined tour in August. Stay tuned to YouTube around that time to see more. I shall be washing my hair.....

Jennifer Hudson Unites With Timbaland For "Walk It Out"

Jennifer Hudson gave us a throwback to the Disco era with the infectious I Can't Describe. And it sounds like she's not quite done looking to the past for inspiration if new song Walk It Out is any indication.

This time the Diva is giving us 90's Rnb with a hard Timbo beat reminiscent of those he was serving up when he first started out with Aaliyah and Ginuwine. The vocal and melody aren't immediately catchy though, but I feel that's nothing a few listens won't remedy.

Do the spicy lyrics, swears and sort-of rapping indicate a change is coming for the Diva's next album? Only time, or someone better informed than me, will tell!
