Kylie Minogue Performs at Good Morning America special

After Kylie Minogue took a week-off, she returned in a very big way. After she made deals with Pepsi, they locked her a place at biggest stadium in the United States, the Michigan Stadium, to perform during the special Good Morning America festival. Directed by Hamish Hamilton, who directed both Beyonce and Bruno Mars' halftime show on the Superbowl the past two years, The Pepsi sponsored performance was the most watched in the episode.

The show starts with all of the light closed, all you can hear is the large crowd screaming, this stays for approximately about six seconds, and then we hear a piano playing in the distance, the stadium slightly glows from a dark purple shadow, the light slowly becomes brighter as the piano melody keeps playing, we hear agile strings playing with the piano, we come to realize that this song is Sexercise. White lights appear as the song builds up and suddenly the stadium blasts into a white flash and fireworks explode from the stadium’s corners and we finally see Kylie wearing a glamorous dress (above picture) holding a pic and doing a very fierce move while singing, “flexin', we're uptight, keep on moving too nice, move it for me tonight” and as she says “Let me see you sexercize” she changes her pose crunching down and holding her hands to the sky. She stands up again and walks fiercely and slowly while singing “it's not just your body, gotta keep it up with me, my mind is seven sea” and as she says “let me see you sexercize” the stage starts moving around and starts spinning. Another layer under the stage starts expanding when Kylie singing “I wanna see you beat all your best times, and if you're lucky I'mma teach you let's just turn you blind” and swiss balls rise from under the stage as the chorus starts and the dancers do similar choreography as the music video throughout the first chorus. A large backdrop around the circle stage flashes at the second verse and it shows sexy scenes of Kylie doing sensual moves and the camera focuses on her skin at one scene and shows her amazing body at the other scene. Kylie walks around the stage and the second layer of the stage starts spinning while the main stage stays at the same place. Both stages move at the second chorus and the backdrop changes into different colors which all add to a very unusual experience for the audience who are watching the show. At the end of the song, Kylie lays down the floor and poses to the camera above her. Four-on-the-floor drum pattern start and Can’t Get You Out Of My Head kicks off and the fun part of the show start, two mascots get on the stage and dance with Kylie, butt-hitting and high-fiving, salsa and disco dancing. The backdrop on this part of the show display bright colors and colorful scenery. “I just can’t get you out of my head” Kylie sing while smiling, cheerleaders hop on the stage too and have fun with Kylie, “Stay forever, and ever, and ever” the song gets slowed down and everyone on the stage crunches and the lights go out. “I like it..” a red light appear and disappears. Nu-Di-Ty starts and the backdrops becomes black and white and the lights mainly consist of white and red glares. We only see Kylie and her dress glows red and she dances provocatively and sexually, “Let the steam rise in the spotlight” literally steam rises from the stage and the atmosphere of this part of the song is very dark. Strip poles ascend from the stage and pole dances dance on the poles while Kylie walks down to the longest pole and dances sexually. When the song ends we see Kylie slowly ripping off her dress and shows a sexy leotard, laughs and “Skirt” starts. The crowd cheers “Down, down, down” repeatedly along the song and the stage flashes white lights frequently with the song til the song blows to a dub step craze and the lights flicker and Kylie’s flipping her hair. The crowd goes crazy and then the song builds up to the other chorus and Kylie’s moaning which got the audience very excited. Minogue sang her heart out at the chorus “Tonight I’m yours” and her backup dancers dance behind her. When the song ends and Timebomb starts, Kylie moves into a box that ascended from the stage, she gets into the box and quickly leaves with new clothing, the magic trick shocked the critics because of how Kylie’s second outfit showed boots, critics assumed Kylie wore a skin identical color pants in the first outfit so then she would take them off and reveal the new outfit, but the magic trick wasn’t revealed which left the people wondering. Kylie sings the chorus and the audience sing a long the “Woop!” that is sung in the chorus, the backdrop show a heart shaped time bomb beating harder till the song ends. Circles start and the audience scream, Minogue sings the verses live and when the beat drop started the audience went crazy, jumping on their feet, Minogue is seen to be dancing sexually and whipping her hair along the beat. When the song ends, all the lights close and we can only see the audience’s white glow sticks, Burn starts and a spot light hits the stage showing Kylie sitting on a chair singing the verses, when we get to the chorus the lights get a little brighter and we see a coral behind Kylie, the stage is rising as the chorus goes and all the lights stop when the chorus finishes with no, we hear the snare drums and suddenly a flash of lights at the beat drop, we see the stage filled with people just like a concert and the stage gets darker again, the backdrop is amazingly beautiful here, your eyes won’t believe what you’ll see, the audience is moving the glow sticks along with the beautiful melody at the drop, when the beat drop ends we hear the same melody and Kylie sings the chorus softly and the performance ends.

It should be noted that both of Kylie’s tour and perfume commercial were played during airing.
During the performance the show was trending and it was the most tweeted music event in a minute, surpassing Miley Cyrus' record for her infamous We Can't Stop performance at the 2013 VMA's.

More details on upcoming EPs - "Truth Pill" & "True Soul"





Aguilera first shared with us the fact that she's planning two upcoming EPs - "Truth Pill" & "True Soul" - just a couple of weeks ago. There are no release dates set, as of yet, although we can expect them pretty soon after this latest "Pandora's Box" era. None of the material from "Pandora's Box" shall be included on either of the EPs since they'll both be treated as separate long-lasting eras instead. An evolution, not an extension. Aguilera has previously expressed and cited Kylie Minogue as one of her main sources of inspiration for these EPs. In actual fact, Kylie has just released her 13th studio album - "Distant Days" - at around the same time as Christina herself. Minogue's second single - "Burn" - is already burning its way through the charts.

So anyways, Aguilera has exclusively revealed that "Truth Pill" will feature 7 tracks in total. It is the first out of the two upcoming EPs to be released soon. "Truth Pill" shall be more controversial than "True Soul" although both are pretty extensive projects for Xtina in terms of being creative-wise. Meanwhile, "True Soul" is expected to be a sincere depiction of the soulful blues artists of back in the day. Truth be told, Christina herself has admitted that she's very much inspired by that period of music and that especially shows and reflects onto her own discography.

Her album "Pandora's Box" is now available for PURCHASE.

Aguilera's reggae-infused second single "Spitfire" f/ Azealia Banks is also available for PURCHASE.

With the release of a brand new single, especially a lead single from an upcoming album, usually comes the release of alternate versions of the single. These alternate versions can take form as perhaps as a orchestral version of the song or a demo version. Most commonly remixes are used for singles that have just been released. Remixes are often used to boost sales for a song or just as a gift or incentive for fans who passionate about anything that their favorite artists release. Though many artists, pop stars for the most part go as far as releasing an entire album that have the same songs but remixed. This is found less frequently currently in the music industry as many artists choose to release remix extended plays. One of those artists happen to be American country-pop singer-songwriter Taylor Swift who released a brand new remix extended play for her brand new single off her upcoming seventh studio, the song being titled 'Loverboy'. The Giorgio Moroder produced song sounds like it was made for remixing, the disco beats easy to substitute and work with, along with the melody that can too be adjusted. The nu-disco song runs for three minutes and forty nine seconds and is uptempo, as Taylor's vocals range from the low note of D3 to the high note of Bb5, Swift showcasing her vocal range for the first time on a song, hitting lows, belting out up to an F#5, and climbing up to multiple Bb5's in falsetto in the final chorus of the song during the ad-libs. A remix extended play of 'Loverboy' was released to iTunes today, Taylor Swift west an iTunes link to the song, tweeting, "Enjoy these lovely remixes. Especially one in particular I know you were dying for. *Insert winky face". Fans instantly clicked the link and were greeted by new versions and remixes of the songs. One of those versions were an acoustic version of 'Loverboy', where Taylor went in the studio to re-record the song, Taylor herself on the guitar if you look at the credits on the extended play. Remixes are included on the on the remix extended play as well. Glam As You remixed Loverboy, giving the disc uptempo sounding song a more progressive house instead. Synths blare and some of Taylor's vocals are pitched higher to sort of add effect to the song. When released it was amongst one of the favorites of the remixes from the fans. Lastly and perhaps the most popular remix was the Disclosure remix. The once sassy uptempo nu-disco song loses it's sound completely as Disclosure turns it into a slow dance R&B groove. Swift's vocals are slowly slight down in contrast to Glam As You who sped up their remix of the song. Background vocals are added to the Disclosure remix as the song is heavy on drum and bass rhythms along with some strings in there too. The Disclosure remix was one the most purchased following the release. The most popular track from there extended play was the new version of 'Loverboy' which contains the same production as the original but has a feature by a friend of Taylor Swift's. That friend is label mate Eric Saade. The feature came about only a couple of days ago where fans were tweeting not only Swift but Saade too that the two should work together on a song again, following their number one 'I Swear'. It was brought to Swift again in an interview in which she stated that she hadn't worked with Eric Saade on anything for the upcoming album. Two days later the two were in the studio where Saade recorded his verse and lines on the bridge, along with some new ad-libs, and harmonies. News hadn't leaked out about their recording session until the remix extended play was out itself. "The extended play is something that was really put together last minute. All the remixes and acoustic versions of the songs were done very recently. I think the first remix for it done was the Richard Vission Remix of the solo version. He re-did it after there Eric feature but yeah. All the remixes and versions were kind of recorded and completed this month. Like in the past two weeks. We didn't rush either, that's the thing. It all just sort sticked together. I'm really happy with the remixes that I chose too. Because oddly instead of branching out and having producers or DJs send their remixes to me, I branched out and asked certain producers and DJs remix my song. I had a certain vision of how I wanted the extended play to sound so I chose some producers who I felt would really capture that vision." The extended play was not only made available through digital outlets like iTunes, Google Play, and Amazon MP3, but it was also made exclusively physically as a limited edition. Only two hundred thousand copies of the extended play were produced and shipments went out to stores last night. Best Buy, Wal-Mart, Target, Costco, and Barnes & Noble were some of the big stars where the remix extended play was made available. Make sure to pick up a physical and digital copy of the original version of 'Loverboy' along with the remix extended play today from the stores listed above.




Taylor Swift has been named one of the most innovative pop stars this decade by numerous magazines and critics in the music industry today. Whether it comes down to her ever changing musical direction, including sound and visually wise, there seems to be nothing the singer can't bring to the table. With a strong marketing team behind her who's always thinking of unprecedented ways to promote whatever album, single, or at times both, the singer-songwriter has out. Writing every single song the singer has ever lender vocals on, Taylor's also known to be one of the few artists who are always completely involved with every one of their music projects. But not only is Taylor involved with all of her studio albums, the now titleholder of "America's Sweetheart" also plays parts in the remixing of her songs as we recently found out today with the release of her 'Loverboy' extended play. The extended play of remixes contain numerous remixes and versions of the Giorgio Moroder produced song that has taken over the charts worldwide. The song has become of the Taylor's biggest on a global scale, dominating countries like France, the United Kingdom, and especially Sweden. With an acoustic version of the song where Taylor finds herself belting out notes of emotion about wanting her lover the night, the singer also finds herself on a R&B slick beat on the Disclosure mix of the song. Other remixes include a progressive house remix done by Glam As You, who've remixed for artists such as Lady Gaga. But perhaps the best remix came the most unexpected. As 'Loverboy' was already dominating Sweden in particular, there was no stopping it as a remix of 'Loverboy' featuring Eric Saade, Sweden's King of Pop, was released. Saade, who shares the same record label as Taylor Swift (Tigerlily Recordings), isn't only big in his home country. The Swedeish popstar topped the charts worldwide with his international debut album that sold over three million copies and spawned three number one singles (Sophistication, I Swear, and Favorite Kind of Trouble). The collaboration came after fans and interviewers asked Swift if he would appear on her upcoming seventh album in which she replied unfortunately, no. We got word that two days later the two were in the studio recording his parts and some new ad-libs and harmonies for the song. In an interview, Swift spoke about the recording session. "We had no plans in getting in the studio together for awhile. In fact we didn't even plan to hang out anytime soon because he was filming and recording stuff while I was touring and filming movies. But he texted me and was like "Check your mentions bae", exactly like that by the way, and I did. I had like four hundred tweets from our fans telling us to collaborate on a song or they would die. Which is a little extreme but it got the point across well." Swift laughed before continuing. "So you know I had a brand new single out and he told me how much he loved it so I was like hey! Plus, I think a male's perspective on 'Loverboy' would really add some more sexiness to it. And he's kind of pure sexiness, lets be real guys." Nods of approval occurred. "So we went in the studio and recorded it. He wrote his parts really really quick, skills in which he must've adopted from me and that was it. We recorded some harmonies, ad-libs, hugged and chatted before we both had to go. That's it really." Saade too spoke on the song to us. "I've been recording my new album lately. It's very time consuming but it wasn't to the point where I wasn't on my twitter all the time. I checked my mentions or @s, whatever you call them, and saw all these tweets. I texted Taylor and a night or day after we were in the studio recording a new version of 'Loverboy'. I wasn't even told what we would be recording until I got there and saw that smirk on her face. We were in the studio about six hours and the song was done shortly after that. It's always really fun working with Taylor. She knows what she wants and really emotes what she sings well. I felt we were a perfect match for the song. I was kind of angry when she told me thought about having a male on it at first. She didn't come to me for a feature. Kidding. It was really fun though." The remix contains a new second verse in which Saade sings, "If it's for a night alone with me in which you'd die. I'm willing to let you pay the price. Of a love that can make you go blind. With the sense of wrong feeling so right. Outside of the bedroom our emotions must hide. A man who only works for love part time. I can be your loverboy just for a night." Saade sings background on the chorus before he sings some on the bridge before a new addition to the song is made, a part where Saade and Taylor do vocalizations. The ending consists of mainly Swift singing as Saade does ad-libs. They then switch as Saade reverses the gender of asthe chorus as Taylor does ad-libs. The two hit a final note together at the end over the disco beat before the song ends with a giggle from Taylor and low hum from Saade. The remix is four minutes and twenty seconds long. The official remix was serviced to pop radio in the UK, France, and the United States, where it was sent to Pop, Rhythmic, and Hot Adult Contemporary, formats. As soon as the remix extended play was released the 'Loverboy' remix featuring Eric Saade shot straight to the top ten in over seventiess countries, boosting that song's sales by quite a lot. You can buy the Eric Saade version of 'Loverboy' now in stores on the 'Loverboy' remix extended play or alone on digital retailers such as iTunes and Amazon MP3. Make sure to pick up a copy!

The perfume comes in two sizes, 1.7 ounces and 3.4 ounces.

TV Spot

A TV advertisement is also being heavily pushed to all major television channels to promote the release of the new fragrance. Macy's is sponsoring the advertisement and will have it play on constant rotation for the next few weeks.

The advertisement starts with Britney wearing a sexy outfit and standing in front of window drapes as she says "What's your fantasy?" in a sensual voice, Britney opens the drapes revealing an interesting backdrop and walks inside.



"Touchin' Me" starts playing as the ad fades to Britney walking into a white bedroom, Rihanna is on the bed and Britney starts kissing her and taking off her clothes. The girls are almost fully nude now with blankets perfectly placed to cover their more private areas, an average looking guy is then seen watching the girls. Britney sensually whispers to him "what are you waiting for?", she wraps the blanket around her and pulls him in, when he falls onto the bed he suddenly wakes up in a college dorm, sweating heavily as he moans. A white screen with moving digital blankets then appears as Britney says "Lascivious Fantasy, everybody has one.. do you dare to reveal yours?" A male voice then says "Britney's new fragrance "Lascivious Fantasy" exclusively at Macy's, "American Dream" in stores now" while text appears on the screen promoting the fragrance.

TIME Magazine interviews Mariah

Mariah's "The Stygian Chevalier" album is currently the second best-selling album of CAL Season 4, behind "Coven 13" EP by Taylor Swift. Her lead single from the album, "Libidinous Dream" has sold over 800,000 copies in only three weeks. Now Mariah Carey releases her second single which is the album title, "The Stygian Chevalier" and hopes her current promo tour will extend her career high note. The hashtag #MCTIME was trending worldwide for 6 hours when the interview snippet was released. Mariah Carey did a Skype video call with the interviewer of TIME since she is currently promoting her album in Australia. Here is the brief interview that you can find below:

Rebecca Winters Keegan (for TIME): In high school I washed dishes at your summer camp.
Mariah Carey: Get out!

RWK: Does Camp Mariah have a song?
MC: They have a ton of hot cheers. But right now their favourites are "Libidinous Dream" and "The Stygian Chevalier" [laughs]

RWK: How does it feel to be emancipated?
MC: There will always be parts of me that need emancipating. But it feels nice to allow yourself to be who you are.

RWK: Do you have any rituals on tour?
MC: Rest, humidity and prayer. In New York, I have a steam room with a bed in it. Everything is waterproof.

RWK: What's the first concert you ever saw?
MC: I didn't exactly have the funds for concerts. There was a time when the only joy I got was recording my outgoing answering-machine messages. My roommate and I left a message once describing when we had no heat, no water, and the fly-paper situation was bleak. It ended up being the message that the record company heard when they called to sign me. I was mortified.

RWK: You'll play a lady that was being abused by the husband before the apocalypse in a movie called Resident Evil. Were you afraid to act again after Glitter?
MC: I was honored Paul W.S.Anderson called me. He produced the other Resident Evil movie series. He's a risk taker. Obviously it would be a risk in a lot of people's minds to cast me. But he never saw Glitter.

RWK: Have you ever sent dogs running with a high note?
MC: No, but I got a letter from a girl who said she was listening to one of my songs and every time I hit a particular high note, the garage door would open or close.

RWK: Kylie Minogue recently expressed her love for your latest album and video. What do you think of that ?
MC: I am grateful to be honest. I have seriously love her recent work and I can see that we have the same mind for our videos. Our videos were beautifully and metaphorically made in a way that people may not be able to understand, you know. And I'll be covering a song from her on my last Australian tour date.

RWK: Thanks, Mariah.
MC: Hey, thanks for doing the dishes.

"Libidinous Dream", title track of the album, "The Stygian Chevalier" and er album out now.
