JUSTIN SNATCHES SPOTLIGHT ON AMERICAN IDOL

Justin Bieber performed on the finale of American Idol tonight – and made it “Spooktacular”! He performed twice – one time during the Pre-show, and during the actual live show he performed again. The performances were both praised, but instead of the usual praise were noted as the BEST performances he had done yet of the single – “Fast Times”. He was also noted among one of the best performances of the night, and had even performed better than 1 or 2 finalists who were singing out their hearts during the finale that aired tonight. He had a little fun on stage with the Halloween theme, and overall gave a good ass performance. We loved it Biebs!
FAST TIMES – PRE SHOW: Justin Bieber performed as the main event of the Pre-Show for American Idol. The pre show was as all of the contestants and judges were arriving to the show, and was filmed outside on their red carpet. Justin performed “Fast Times”, the single version and did a good. He came out with the cheerleaders that have F-A-S-T T-I-M-E-S on them as usual, and along with the choreography they threw came out on stage with a cannon and literally shot candy into the audience and got everyone amped to put Halloween onto a great start. The pre-show performance was said to be the best performance of the pre-show performances, and put Bieber on the map for a good performance for the actual airing of the Finale.
FAST TIMES (REMIX) – MAIN SHOW: All of the lights were on Justin Bieber, after he done well during a pre-show watched by a portion of the audience watching the finale. He came out and did a little encore during the televised finale of the single – “Fast Times”, but he performed the remix. The remix was in order of the track, with Drake coming out to perform the verses first and Justin doing his parts, then it repeating with 2 Chainz and Lil Wayne. Justin had delivered another flawless vocal and choreography performance, and many continued to be impressed. He wished the contestants he had previously been a Guest for during an earlier episode of the season a Good Luck, and talked with the judges for a little bit during commercial break.
Overall, his appearance was well received and as fans expected he didn’t end up performing a new buzz track he released – “Ghosts Of Her”. He will be performing on a televised U.S. show again tomorrow, as he appears on “The Fingerprints Show”.

JUSTIN PERFORMS ON ABC SPECIAL

Justin Bieber starred and performed on ABC’s special that premiered tonight – “A Spooktacular Night with ABC”. Much like how channels tend to special Holiday programs, ABC did one for Halloween tonight. They showed brand new Halloween episodes of their biggest shows currently on air, and on top of that had a Live Concert in Washington D.C. , in which they showed recaps of the performances during special 30 minute – 1 hour block times. Justin Bieber performed on there, he performed 2 songs – “Fast Times” + “Ghosts of Her”, on the special concert for ABC. Justin’s new buzz track got some good reception, but the performance of it wasn’t aired on ABC. For special promotional purposes, his label only opted to air “Fast Times” remix being aired on the ABC special.
GHOSTS OF HER – UNAIRED PERFORMANCE: For special promotional purposes, Hyped Music Records decided not to air the performance of the track just for fans. They wanted “the promotion to for Fast Times, and Fast Times only”. The performance however for the die hard fans who need to see it, is on ABC.com and is on Youtube uploaded by multiple fans. He came to stage with his little costume as Freddy Krueger. He performed the new buzz track to a spooky audience, and did some little scares which included at the end screams edited into the song along with fake blood coming out of his head. The audience got scared for the split of a second, before realizing it was for the performance and it was fake blood. The performance was said to be “entertaining, and thrilling – all that’s needed for Halloween”.
FAST TIMES – REMIX: Aired on ABC a few times tonight, and performed live at their concert “A Spooktacular Night with ABC” was Justin’s performance of the single – “Fast Times”. He came to stage back on with his costume, and to a funny ultimate surprise the rappers with the performance Drake, 2 Chainz, and Lil Wayne came onto stage with some costumes. Drake was dressed as a werewolf, 2 Chainz was a ghost, and Lil Wayne was supposed to be the Devil. They came out and delivered an intriguing and hilarious performance to the crowd, and was dubbed by the concert goers as “the funniest performance of the night”. The audience gave them a burst of applause for them going the extra mile over other performers, and coming out inside of those costumes.
If you didn’t catch any of this be sure to go on ABC.com, or on Youtube to see the performances! Have a happy Halloween!

DREAMS BELIEVE TOUR - DAY 44

Justin Bieber's tour - "Dreams Believe" went to it's 2nd week and 4th day! This is closing in as his final days in Europe sadly, he recently told press in Europe "this has definitely been one of my favorite continents to perform. The vibe here is so surreal...". The stadium had a casual 23,000. . Justin first came out with Lorde as usual, as she performed 2-3 songs and they performed "Aliens Invading" together. Then he came to stage with Vanessa Hudgens and performed an UNRELEASED SONG "Leave It Up To Me" that was suppose to be used for the Fast Times at University Soundtrack before they decided the song didn't fit with anything throughout the movie, he also then performed a special version of "Fast Times" with her, she then herself performed her song from the soundtrack -- "$$$ex". They showed fans the trailer of the movie too, and reminded his Mexico Fans to see the mvoie when it comes to theaters there. Next he performed a setlist of 5 songs - "If I", "Turnt", "Hot Right Now", "Everything is Everything", and "I Still Wanna Believe". The fans in the stadium were showing humongous love, and were already 'turnt' by the time it got to the track of that same name to perform. Fans say his vocals were "pure crystals" there, and better than the performances they sit at home and watch. He then did a little break from the usual singing, and invited fans on stage to do things – ask questions, cover his songs, and some little fun/games. He ended up also letting a dying fan with an undisclosed disease on stage, and performed "Serenade In Paris" to her. She received free tickets to the concert from a competition she won, and was dying to meet him! He then went on and performed some more songs, “My Everything”, “Showtime”, “Message In A Bottle”, and “Keep On Runnin’” were among some of the mid-tempo/slow-tempo songs he then performed that time. He also announced to them the remix for “Showtime” with Nicki Minaj, and to buy it when it’s in digital stores next week. By the time the concert had reached the end and climaxed you could visibly see the audience was delighted and impressed from his time there, and after he performed 4-5 more songs he then told them it was closing soon. He was met with screams of “ENCORE! ENCORE! ENCORE!” so then he decided to perform another unreleased song, he had performed on tour a few times – “Livin’ Bitch” that was also suppose to make the Soundtrack but was scrapped. He then did a special encore also by performing "Cassanova" and "Come & Get It" songs that become viral when he was on a rise to fame. He usually doesn't perform those songs anymore, as he's more impressed with his album. After he had left, fans were left in the absence of memories of a great performance. This concert's energy was great sources said on Bieber, and he also performed a few other songs that didn't have enough time to get mentioned including a praised performance for a cover of Bruno Mar's "Grenade". He also then thanked the Greece citizens, and gave them a special performance of "Fast Times (Remix)" with Drake, Lil Wayne, and 2 Chainz as the concert ended, for Halloween he also performed his new buzz track -- "Ghosts Of Her".

SELENA GOMEZ'S ROYAL VAREITY PERFORMANCE

Selena Gomez has released a brand new single titled ‘His Diamonds’ this week and the M.I.A. and Danja produced song has already taken over the world with it’s infectious beat and catchy lyrics. Critics have shown much much love for the single, saying that Gomez brought something new to the table with this record and is out to prove herself as an artist in the industry today. Rolling Stone went on to say that Gomez may even be the future princess of pop music if she kept up the rate she’s growing as an artist now. Selena Gomes has been flying back between Europe and North America all this week to promote the single, performing on The X Factor UK, Surprise Surprise, The Voice, and more. Miss Gomez is showing no signs of stopping anytime soon she says. Gomez went on in an interview to call the upcoming album her most personal record to date, penning every song on the album herself. Gomez then stated that this album would be her ‘catharsis’ and ‘stepping stone’ musically as she feels as she’s in the right time in her career to take chances not just film wise but musically as well. Gomez performed along with Hurts, Nicole Scherzinger, Gary Barlow, Beyonce and more at the Royal Variety Show held and aired tonight on ITV 1.

The performance was great as always as the stage set up was basic, the stage empty and dark besides a light shining in the middle with smoke. Selena rose out from underneath the stage as she whispered some works in arabic (A sweet magical love. I knew my destiny was you.) She then started singing the first verse as the instrumental started. She sang live as the original arrangement of the song was replaced with a more Indian and urban feelish arrangement as Selena started doing some dancing that involved her hips and arms. Two male dancers came up out of the stage beside her and she took her turn grinding on either of one them before they broke out into a dull dance routine for the chorus. Selena and her dancers killed it in a simple and stripped down performance, not using any type of big production. The bridge was epic with flashing strobe lights as Selena did some sexy and intimate dancing with her dancing. Overall the performance was amazing, Selena’s vocals were impressive though a bit shaky on the parts that involved lots of intense dancing.

(300) Kesha dating Adam Levine

Kesha announced on Jimmy Fallon that she is in fact dating someone but she didn't reveal a name.
Paparazzis spotted Kesha and Adam Levine on a date at one of New York's finest restaurants Per Se.
Per Se is a French restaurant, it costs over 100$ for a meal there.
Kesha had finished promoting today and returned to her house to get ready for her date.
Paparazzis were waiting for her to leave her house. She left at 8 PM wearing a beautiful black dress, black high heels, red lipstick and light make-up.
Kesha got into a black limousine, inside, there was a glass of white wine, a TV and comfortable seats.

It drove her to the restaurant where we believe Adam Levine was waiting for her. The paparazzis couldn't get inside the restaurant.
One of our paparazzis saw them through a window but he was then asked to leave by the security guard.
Adam was wearing an expensive suit, they were eating desert and drinking red wine.
They left the restaurant after almost two hours and were swarmed by the news reporter. The security guard threatened them with a gun and they all left.
Kesha and Adam then walked to a park. They didn't spot the paparazzis that were hiding in the bushes.
They walked around the park for an hour, sat on a bench, talked and kissed. It was really dark and romantic there. There was a fountain close to them, a lot of tress and a few bushes.
At half past 11, Adam walked her to her house where he gave her a kiss goodbye.
He got a taxi back home. There are believed to go on a second date in two or three day when Ke$ha isn't too busy.
We still don't know where/how they met

SELENA GOMEZ ON DAYBREAK
Selena Gomez has been busy busy promoting that infectious hit of hers titled ‘His Diamond’. She chatted with us this morning on Daybreak about the single and her upcoming album which we’re sure everywhere is anticipating greatly. Gomez then went on to perform the song in a stripped down way for us on this lovely Thursday morning.

Good Morning Selena. How are you enjoying the United Kingdom?
It’s actually quite beautiful. I was lucky enough to do some sight seeing from the window of my car here this morning. It wasn’t as quite enjoyable as it would be to go out to the places to see it but I’ve been here lots of times now so I’m pretty used to it all. It’s great.

Your new single ‘His Diamond’ is out and everyone’s been so excited for it. How’s it feel for it to finally be out?
 Really good. I recorded it about two months ago so keeping it under wraps for two months with that sucky feeling of wanting everyone to hear it but you can’t because you’re not done recording the album is quite frustrating. So it was relief to get it out. I’m proud of it. Very proud of it.

How many songs did you have to choose from as the lead single?
We recorded about fifteen songs for the album I think and we chose the best songs, which was really hard, to choose from. We had four songs to choose from and funny enough none of them were actually the song that’s the single now. I went in a week later to record the song with M.I.A. who you guys know, and Danja who’s an amazing producer. And once I recorded it and listened to it I knew it. I knew it had to be the lead single. Nothing else on the album could suit the sound I wanted for the single except His Diamond.

You’ve said lots of time this album is very personal for you. We want your term on personal.
I’ve never really gotten that personal with my music. I knew really sat down in a studio and wrote a song about something I went through and I really wanted to do that with this album. So I sat down sometimes alone or in the studio with some artists and just let everything out by writing lyrics. I can honestly say that I am more proud of myself than ever to say I co-wrote every single song on this record.

Selena then performed an acoustic version of ‘His Diamond’.

SELENA GOMEZ ON THE X FACTOR SPAIN
Selena Gomez performed on The X Factor Spain today, taking her usual performances of her biggest single to date ‘His Diamonds’ to a stripped down piano ballad version of the MIA and Danja produced, middle eastern influenced song. She sounded flawless over the beautiful piano which was played by Gomez herself in the middle of the stage. It was the most intimate we ever saw Gomez play as she sang the love song sweetly, gliding in and out of her cute and heavenly falsetto. She thanked the audience after her performance saying “Gracias’ almost five times in total as they stood on their feet for the pop star.

JUSTIN PERFORMS ON JAY LENO

Justin went and performed on “Late Night with Jay Leno” tonight. He joked around with the old guy after being announced to the stage, and sat down and they discussed their lives and what they’ve been doing around Halloween. The interview was seen as funny, and during one part they attempted to scare the living daylight out of Justin by having someone in a Bigfoot costume pretend to attack Justin. He did flinch a little at first seeing the sight of the humongous costume, that was until he realized it was a prank – and admitted to being pranked while Jay Leno and the audience got their laughs. Justin then performed the “Fast Times” single, and that wasn’t it. Justin losing a pranking war? Nope! Justin then pranked Jay Leno by paying one of the Producers to come on the show while it was airing LIVE, and telling him the Halloween episode being filmed would not air because they wanted to air Jimmy Fallon’s, and that he would not be receiving his paycheck for the episode. Mr.Leno was ready to flip, until he also realized it was a prank. All around the episode provided a nice comfort to watching, especially to those lonely on Halloween night.

FAST TIMES – PERFORMANCE: The performance of “Fast Times” mid-way through the episode was also one of the most talked about things during the episode. This was actually one of the first times this weke that he didn’t perform the remix while performing…at all! I guess that’s good to the people who’d rather not hear the rappers plastered all over the remix version. He came out and performed it with a group of professional dancers too, instead of the usual cheerleaders. They did a few moves, but the stage was small so he stuck to singing basically the whole time. The performance was applauded by the audience, and Jay Leno had then came to stage to announce that everybody in the audience was receiving the Physical Single of Justin Bieber’s, “Fast Times” single – which is also available in select retailers throughout the country.
Justin didn’t perform the Halloween Buzz Track, but he did talk about it when Jay Leno asked him what he had done today. He called the track, “one of his favorite tracks” and said “I’m glad fans finally got to see it in some kind of way”. The episode also did good in ratings, being one of the highest watched episodes of the season so far.

JUSTIN ON MTV HITS

Justin Bieber, the Teen King sat down with MTV’s 24/7 music channel – “MTV Hits” and talked about his 10 favorite artists in the industry. He named them all, and explained and told why they were his favorite artists and to him – what made them shine above the other artists currently in the music industry. The interview was shown in part by part between and before commercials on the channel MTV Hits today, and they also spun many of Justin Bieber’s videos on rotation today. Including the newest “Fast Times” Remix Video, which MTV Hits reported playing 20 times within the 24 hour period. “Chemistry”,”Turnt”, “Showtime”, and “Hot Right Now” were among some of the videos also played frequently on the MTV channel today.
Justin’s favorite artists (in no type of order):
Usher
Paige Elliot
Phoebe Tonkin
Drake
Pharrell
Justin Timberlake
Taylor Swift
Kanye West
Sky Ferreira
Eminem

He spoke on why Usher was his favorite artist, first:
“Usher was one of the people who brought me to fame. While I was in the process of trying to get signed with labels and stuff, he heard my music during this day he was in the same studio. It’s been a wrap since, and he’s helped me with so much. It means a lot because, outside of that – he is one of my favorite artists and his songs are killer and truly do speak to a man.”
He spoke on why he also appreciated Paige Elliot:
“I somewhat liked her when she first debuted, but then it all changed when we worked together on the movie and soundtrack. She’s like so innovative – she’s her own artist, has her own sound, has her own visualization of how Paige Elliot is. Like nobody will get in her way, and I roll with people like that. Working with her was both stimulating, and helpful. She has so many ways to help out, and make music better.”
He spoke on his recent collab with Pheobe, and her artistry:
“I like how she popped outta nowhere, but just is calm and collective about it. We have these stars who blow up, and over think themselves and try to think “oh I’m the top dog now”. It gets petty, but she seems so calm about it. We worked on a song ‘July Morning’ on her upcoming album, and she is such a great songwriter. Like I didn’t have much of a part in it, when they asked me to lay vocals down for the male in the song I didn’t over think it for a second.”
He also spoke on Taylor Swift:
“Yeah..we had that little petty thing at first. With the whole media tryna make it seem like we disliked each other, which I gladly put an end to. I thought working with her was gonna be awkward, but we both did it maturely and produced great music. I’m glad to announce, “Time After Time” is the next single. Me and her worked really hard on it, and I really think – Paige, Phoebe, and Taylor are the Top 3 Songwriters. Everything comes together perfectly with them, and then Taylor knows how to play the Guitar too, so it’s just a double plus with her. They all definitely don’t get enough credit they deserve, while there’s other Pop Girls who just release 80 singles, don’t put ANYTHING into them – such as writing, producing, barely any good vocals and get all this recognition.”
