DOLLY PARTON PERFORMS “NOT THROUGH LOVING YOU” ON OPRAH!
Oprah loves Dolly Parton and has welcomed her back to her to appear on her show. The event started with both Dolly and Oprah sitting down and talking about their past experiences over the years and both celebrating the excellence of the other.
Oprah then asked if Dolly would like to perform her latest single, “Not Through Loving You” on air. Dolly accepted the invitation with a warm smile and took to the stage and gave a high energy performance. Oprah began to cry at the powerful lyrics and random ATRL users began to use the resulting gif to showcase digital emotion.
After her performance, Oprah and Dolly took to talking about the change to River Rose Records and how impressive each of them was looking. It was very clear that both women were in absolute admiration of each other and that they would continue their friendship for many years to come.
At the end of the show, Oprah thanks Dolly for stopping by and encouraged her viewers to take a moment to download the new single, “Not Through Loving You” on iTunes and to follow Dolly on Twitter to find out all the latest news about her new album and more.

TAYLOR SWIFT HOSTS YOUTUBE WEBCHAT; MAKE ANNOUNCEMNT
Taylor Swift might have just got finished promoting and filing a lawsuit against BFF Paige Elliot but that hasn't stopped the singer-songwriter to continue promotion for her own music releases. With her 'Coven 13' EP dropping at midnight last night to many's surprise, the singer felt the need to host a webchat today to explain her reasoning for releasing it as well to talk about the new version of Zendaya's 'Gunshot', which Taylor features on. Swift also had a huge announcement to make as well that she assured many fans would love along with performances of 'Gunshot', 'Losing Touch', and 'Psycho'.
"I know you guys are still in a bit of a crazy and I know I have a lot of explaining to do but you guys like it right?" Swift asked her fans innocently as she sat in front of a setting that consisted of black drapes and a television that played her album artwork, along with the videos for her last single 'Psycho'. "You know I've recorded the EP for quite some time. It was intended to be a part of the re-release of Coven 13 and I was going to go through with it but I kind of reflected on it the way I did RED. I felt as if packaging the same album with a few new songs would sort of be cheating you guys. So instead I packaged it into an eight track EP. That way you guys could buy the entire thing of a new songs instead of buying the album for just four new songs. And about the release I can just tell you that I wanted to just get the songs out. These songs were intended and written for the rerelease not for the album I'm readying for release next so If I put them on the record they would sort of be out of place. I didn't want to do that so I just released them. In other words I didn't want them on the next album which I'm dying to release so I just released them with no care."
Talking about Zendaya's 'Gunshot', Taylor seemed very lively. "I absolutely love and adore everything about Zendaya. She's so talented, her voice is very beautiful and soft which surprisingly mixed very well with mine on the song. She's really sweet, sweet enough to let me go in the studio with her and sort of remix her song. Not many artists nowadays aren't really that open to people jsut going in and remixing their song but she surprisingly was. The song is absoultely killer, I'm lucky to be able to be apart of it. Especially because I know she has such a strong connection to it. I can relate to it as well and that's one of the reasons why I was so excited about being able to go in an be apart of it with her. It was truly amazing."
Lastly Swift had a huge announcement to make regarding the EP, sending fans into a frenzy in the comments of the webchat that averaged about 450,053 viewers it's entire half hour duration. "I know you guys were disappointed I had to cancel The Witching Hour Tour, that upset my greatly too. Things happen and unfortunately I was going through a lot. If you didn't know I'd recently lost a child and I also was splitting with my then fiance at the time. You can't really bounce back from those things that quick so I took some time to myself and I can say now I'm ready. Ready to announce my brand new tour called the 'Electric Princess Tour'. The tour kicks off in two days in Tokyo and I'll be touring Asia before coming to the US. The dates will be announced right now for the Asian leg and North America you'll be next with Europe to follow. See you there!" xx

KELLY CLARKSON PERFORMS AT BASEBALL GAME
Kelly Clarkson is a fan of baseball! Recently, the “You Don’t Need Me” singer opened the nationally televised baseball game between the Red Socks and the Yankees by performing the National Anthem. Fans screamed their approval as the legendary vocalist delivered a passionate performance that resembled the late great Whitney Houston’s chilling performance.
During the 7th Inning Stretch Kelly once again took to the field to provide some entertainment and gave a live performance of her latest single, “You Don’t Need Me” which was also included in the televised portion of the broadcast.
The game was an exciting one and the Red Socks ended up winning with a score of 10 – 2.
However, Kelly could very well be the winner of the night with her National Anthem performance and single performance becoming moderate hits on YouTube also.
Fans that enjoyed the performance can download a copy of Kelly’s latest hit, “You Don’t Need Me”. Fans can then go to Kelly’s website and enter their receipt number and download her rendition of the national anthem for free.

Jhené Aiko to voice lead in new Pokémon film!
TOKYO – Music's breakout star Jhené (Efuru Chilombo) Aiko has voiced the lead character in the new Pokémon film, the first musician to take on such a role in the popular franchise!
Pokemon the Movie: Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction, directed by Kunihiko Yuyama, will be released by Toho in Japan on July 19, and is the 17th installment in the series. The film's producers are hoping that Aiko's participation and the hype around her debut album "Souled Out" will provide some extra buzz around its release. "Aiko's soothing voice was exactly what we wanted going into production for the film. When we heard her voice and we learnt that she's a huge fan we decided that she would be perfect for the role! She's half-Japanese too so that is a bonus!" The producer dished at the press conference today.
"I'm a huge Pokémon fan, so when my manager hit me up a few months ago to audition for the role, I was like"**** yes". I was delighted that the producers got back to me straight after my voice test. I spent like two months in Japan. It was really nice to be there again. I haven't been in Japan since I was 5."
When asked if her music will be featured, Jhené said: "I don't want to give away too much, but I did write and record some stuff that might be featured in the opening part or end credits. It was so much fun singing in Japanese! (laughs)"
Aiko's debut album Souled Out is out now!

Gimme Your Best featured on Call Of Duty: Advanced Warfare TV spots
 
"Gimme Your Best" is the new theme song for this years edition of Call of Duty.
Call of Duty premiered this new trailer today at E3 and the song has also been worked into all previous trailers and TV spots.
Activision commented and confirmed that "Gimme Your Best" is the official theme song for their new game as they feel that their young fan base will enjoy hot new music from such a popular and revolutionary artist. Activision also stated that the song will play in certain areas of the campaign mission and that Spears herself is in the Call of Duty game.
"She serves as a side mission where you have to protect a celebrity. The mission revolves around getting Britney safely from an award show to her home as there is a bomb planted under the stage where Britney is supposed to perform. If you fail, she dies. If you get her back to her home safely, lets just say.. you gave it your best and you get to spend the night with Britney."
With Britney's song taking over all Call Of Duty's TV spots, it's certainly going to a get a lot of TV promotion worldwide.
It is certainly interesting to have Britney Spears, a female pop singer, be the musical face of Call Of Duty. Call Of Duty used the likes of Eminem in the past to promote their video games to music fans but they are going a different direction with their new game. Britney has a large fan-base and "Gimme Your Best" is shaping up to be a big hit, Call Of Duty is taking a risk with this decision but with Britney's star power it will most probably turn out to be an effective decision. Britney has helped the likes of pepsi and h&m boost their product sales and Call Of Duty expects to see similar results after directly promoting "Gimme Your Best" in all of their promotional TV Spots and YouTube ads.

Katy Perry & Nicki Minaj at BET Awards
Katy Perry and Nicki Minaj put on a very elaborate show for the BET audience.
The stage is pitch black. You see a single spotlight shine down, and under it's bright glow you see Katy, wind blowing through her hair and dress. She is wearing a flowing sea-foam colored gown that billows with each gust of the wind, as if made of waves. Katy sings, just her and her microphone/no music, some new lyrics.
Quote:
Would you leave if I said I love you?
Or would that just scare you off?
How would you feel, if I called this whole thing off?
I don't wanna be your hook-up girl, but I don't wanna lose you..
So tonight I'm yours.
Your baby girl.
|
These new lyrics don't seem to be a new song, but rather a background story for the song. It paints a more meaningful message to the track, making it seem more than a simple sex song.
"Your baby girl" echoes over and over and the spotlight split in half and disappears. As that single lyric is repeated over and over, you see light blue, white, dark blue, lavender, and peach colored lights bounce around the stage, and finally the whole stage lights up and the song kicks in to full gear.
Nicki is wearing a very similar outfit to Katy's except in a peach color. The stage is set up like a beach at night, with a star-filled background with multicolored stars and comets and planets floating around the screen Wind machines are on in full throughout the whole performance, and it appears Katy & Nicki are floating the whole time. They dance and sing with the help of female backup dancers, who are wearing nothing but their zodiac-themed body paint.
Altogether it was a gorgeous performance, one that showed another side of the song.

F(x) Perform Their New Album @ K-Con 2014
Following the surprise release of F(x)'s debut album "Chimera Hearts" and their lead single from the album "Jet" the 5 member group had also been booked to be one of the performers for iconic and popular K-pop Convection K-con hosted in Los Angeles, Califorina. During the girls set they took the opportunity to surprise fans with performances of a few songs off their EP which included single "Jet" and tracks Hide & Seek and the title track Chimera Hearts they also managed to perform some of their older hits like Rum Pum Pum Pum & Hot Summer~. Below are short summaries of the groups performances!
Jet's Performance - The stage was set at a dark tone with very dark hints of blue lights just floating around until suddenly the beginning instrumental of Jet began playing the stage start blinking lights in certain stages and spotlights began wandering the stage. The song begins playing and the stage just turns on with a neon green hue as the screens start playing background of your typical hipster galaxies along with some kawaii cartoon animations on them. The 1st verse his and the middle of the stage opens up with a green light shinning behind it as pink smokes comes gushing out as Krystal leaps out onto the stage with the rest of F(x) walking behind. She starts singing her lines as the others do their choreography behind her. Luna steps out to sing her verse twirling around the stage before the pre-chorus comes in and Sulli steps forward walking around putting on a cute innocent act . Krystal steps out for her line strutting forward like a runway model before the Chorus hits. The stage comes to life as animations of Stars, planets, rainbows and galaxies play all over the stage while the group spread out around the stage sings while doing their intense choreo. Post-Chorus hits and the girls stay in place acting ditsy singing the "Dalalala" before the spotlight shines on Amber as she comes down on the stage finally doing her little rap. The girls start skipping to the front of the stage where it separates the crowd and the V.I.P pit as the post chorus still goes on. The intro plays again and the stage begins flashing as the girls start doing the choreography. Verse 2 hits and Krystal & Luna split from the group holding hands skipping acting all whimsical while singing. The Post-Chorus again and Sulli sings to the crowd acting flirtatious with them while renaming innocent, Krystal passes by her fake flicking her strutting around the stage before pausing to join in on the Chorus again. The girls walk about to the main stage gathering as the stage below Krystal and Luna starts rising them off as they share the chorus showing casing their vocals. The chorus comes again the other 3 members also begin rising as they're now in a row doing choreography as sparks begin shooting from above them. The outro plays and the girls slowly descend back on stage which is just lighting up with color before coming together to form the formation of plane wings as the song ends.
Hide & Seek - Following after Jet the stage goes into a complete blackout before the song begins playing, the stage then goes into a frenzy with white lights flashing at random times and spotlights shining on random places of the stage. Sulli starts the song off as the stage remains dark as a spotlight shines down on Sulli who stays completely still with a blank expression on her face while the stage occasionally blinks with veins of colors. Luna starts singing and the spotlight leaves Sulli in darkness and goes onto Luna whose in the front of the stage skipping away from something as we see a glimpse of hands come swooping at her in the spotlight. Victoria takes the pre-chorus as the spotlight shines on her laying on the floor dazed singing to the ceiling before turning to the crowd. The chorus hits and the stage starts flashing with lights that change each color as she we see all 5 girls center stage dancing in formation. The performance carries on like this for the most part as the stage stays dark showing one member at a time in various poses and situation before the chorus comes and expose them all for a dance and some color. When the Bridge hits a symphony of spotlights fill the stage as the group does a little dance with Luna & Krystal singing back to back. The chorus repeats itself until the song ends and the stage just flashes on and off as the girls run in the dark and then pose when the lights come on.
Hot Summer & Rum Pum Pum Pum Pum - Starting off with Hot Summer the groups performance is very energetic as the stage goes popping with sparks everywhere as the group fiercely starts around taking turns of whose leading the group as they frequently pose as if spys caught in the act of sneaking. When the Chorus comes on the stage starts sprinkling out some water as the girls do their choreography. They continue their group strutting till they get back on the main stage where they spend the rest of the performance dancing and singing. When the chorus hits the stage goes a orange tone as Amber steps forwards rapping and the screens play a backdrop of animated flames before they go back into the chorus where flames burst out on each side of the Stage, Transitioning into Rum Pum Pum Pum the stage calms down a bit as a stripped pattern is projected onto the stage which is lightly dim as the girls perform their last Korean single.
Chimera Hearts - Their last performance and the stage is lit in a Yellowish sunset glow as the girls are in their own decorated heart shaped capsule as the screens play a background of abandoned forest. They spend the performance each giving out a a vocal and meaning performances as their hearts move around the stage in a counter clock wise rotation during the verses. When the Chorus hits their capsules open as they all step put to do a little smooth choreography before stepping back in. When the chorus comes on flower petals start floating onto stage as the girls start breaking their capsules as the stage starts switching huesbefore fully break out going into the chorus. They all come together singing out into the crowd as the lights shine down on them before shinning onto the crowd as their set ends
