[Free For All Friday]

Today's matinee movie is Betrayed. The synopsis is as follows:"A pregnant woman going through a divorce takes a secret holiday in a coastal village with her lover, but immediately suspects someone is watching them. When her boyfriend is kidnapped, she is forced to turn to her husband for help in saving him".

Hmm. Not sure if I'm going to enjoy this one. Seems a little serious. Anyone in the UK, this film is currently on channel 5.

If you don't know the score, here be the rules:
  • Try not to get too perverted- this site needs to basically be "safe for work".
  • If somebody starts a controversial subject, try keeping it civil when dealing with it. If things get out of hand please flag the conversation.
  • It would be nice if it stuck to music, but it's not a requirement! So talk about news, current events, how you're getting your hair done next time you hit the hairdresser! Whateves, really!
  • No nasty comments aimed at other users.
Inappropriate hugs to all of y'all (hi-fives to the underagers), and wishing you an awesome weekend!

[Listen] Britney Spears' Unedited "Alien" Vocals Leak

Ever wanted to hear Britney Spears sans auto-tune? Well today is your lucky day, as the original audio for Alien mysteriously found its way onto the internet.

The thought of this happening must be a concern for most vocally-challenged Divas. However, I'm guessing Britney will remain unbothered by this blip. The track's producer, on the other hand, seemed more concerned and issued a statement- thereby confirming the authenticity of the recording- in an attempt to do damage control:

Watch Jasmine Sullivan gets Down With Muppets In "Dumb" Video

What's with all these Muppets running around in music videos of late? Has Jim Henson's copyright over his creations recently expired?

Whatever the case, the last place I thought I'd see them turning up was in a Jasmine Sullivan video. But that's just what I've witnessed with the comedy visuals for her new single Dumb.

Check out the Diva parodying famous show Cheaters with a cast of Tamaresque stitchlings.

[Disuss] Biggest Turn Off In A Voice

We often discuss what we like about a singer's voice. However, let's today flip the table and talk about the qualities that displease our refined ears.

For me, there's never been a single thing that would totally turn me off a singer. After all, my tolerance for Marmite-timbred artists (Rihanna and Kesha, for example) has always been quite high.

[Watch] Sia Sings "Elastic Heart" @ Kimmel Live

Jeez Louise, Sia's performances are getting more and more nightmarish as time goes on!

Giving her first (I think) live showing of  Elastic Heart on Kimmel live, the Diva brought with her a group of demonic clowns to dance a creepy and disturbing routine for the (probably scared out of their mind) audience. If you don't want to sleep again, take a look at the video.

Ariana Grande Embraces EDM With "Break Free"

Has Ariana Grande decided to move on from the Rnb stylings of her debut album Yours Truly? Break Free, the next single to be taken from her upcoming second album My Everything, would seem to suggest so.

[Watch] Ellie Goulding Sets Glastonbury 2014 Alight With Live Show

Ellie Goulding 2014 GlastonburyEllie Goulding and her trusty drums took to the stage on the closing night of Glastonbury 2014 to perform a plethora of songs- a few of which I didn't even recognise!

[Watch] Haim Cover Beyonce's "XO" at Glastonbury 2014

You better believe I stan for Haim!

Something about this trio of sisters does funny things to me, almost to the extent that they can do no wrong in my eyes. (I smell witchery afoot!) So you better believe I was pumped to watch their live show at Glastonbury 2014.

Performing to a packed audience, the Divas rocked "The Other" stage. Mixed in with their own collection of great songs were two popular records by other artists:  Fleetwood Mac's Oh Why and Beyonce's XO.

[Discuss] Did Dolly Parton Lip Her Glastonbury set?

Right this second, the iconic Dolly Parton is singing her set on the main stage at Glastonbury.

Though the Diva has successfully won a new audience with her witty humor and the funny anecdotes she's told between songs, the praise is being tempered slightly with questions as to how much of the set was actually being sung live.

I'll hopefully be able to find the video of the show, once it's finished- so those not watching live can decide for themselves. But to anyone watching now, let me know what you think.

Whatever the case, God bless Dolly. Truly one of a kind!
