Nothing huge in the general rules are changing. Just some cost things and moderate formula changes.

I'll make a post about it when I get home!

This is Natalia's last week here at CAL. It has been really exciting playing with you guys. I'll probably constantly pop in to see how everything's going and who's charting and what not.

School starts next week for me and I'm looking at that 3.8 GPA minimum!

Cara Delevingne on Music Station
509 Words



Cara Delevingne is back in Japan for the very first date of her 'Distant World Tour' which she performed in a sold out stadium, the National Stadium situated in Tokyo and Cara passed by Music Station for one more performance on Japanese TV this week. Wearing a very colorful, cute and playful outfit Cara walked through the streets of Tokyo earlier to do some shopping and was followed by hundreds. She then wore a light pink dress with long sleeves and large metallic boots to the music station studios for the appearance.
Cara started off the show by performing the single 'La Belle' which peaked at the #2 position on the charts 2 weeks ago. She performed the song wearing a custom made Japanese outfit which was composed of a blue leotard with pearls covering most of the top part of the leotard. The performance was energetic and ended with a heavily choreographed dance number. Following 'La Belle' was 'Kiss To My Heart', which Cara performed alone in the middle of the stage which was covered with mirrors. Lights were coming from everywhere and hitting the mirrors creating impressive and beautiful visuals. Following this song, Cara sang 'Distant Horizon' in a similar way and then sang 'Fall Out' which features Jay-Z. Jay-Z who accepted to come to Japan with Cara as they became close friends, and appeared on the show for the performance. While he's appearance gathered loud screams and cheers from the crowd, Cara was still the center of attention of everyone with her now black and white outfit and her impressive moves. She ended the series of performances with 'Honey', her brand new single available now.
Following the performances, Cara sat down wearing a Alexander McQueen dress and white Miu Miu boots for an interview. Cara discussed multiple topics. Among multiple things, she talked about what she thought about the current state of music: "Sales are reaching new lows and I'm really happy with what I manage to achieve. Me and my label are also removing my music form Spotify and other streaming devices very soon aside from my singles. I think albums need to be bought. I'm very supportive of what Taylor Swift has been doing concerning such matters as I think she is absolutely right."
Cara also answered questions which were asked by the crowd and questions the hosts found on twitter when people tweeted #CaraOnMusicStation. The episode reached record numbers of views as it reached the highest amount of views the show had reached in the 3 past seasons. The show is watched by an amazing amount of people in Japan and is surely going to push the sales of her single 'Honey' which is now available and her album 'Distant Horizon' which is available digitally and physically and features the smash single 'La Belle' aside the hit in the making 'Honey'. A DVD and Blu Ray of Cara Delevingne's Stade de France concert titled 'Cara Delevingne Live From Stade De France' is also packaged with the album to further push the album's sales.

'Honey' is featured on Cara Delevingne's new album 'Distant Horizon'.
Wearing a Mugler vintage black elegant dress with leather detail and cut outs, Cara sta down in front of Jimmy Fallon while the cheers were still loud and clear and Cara waved at the crowd which intensified the screams for a few more minutes.
Jimmy Fallon: They are absolutely insane about you!
Cara: Yeah and that's the great thing about it! *smiles and waves even more causing more screams*
Jimmy Fallon: They also did this flash mob in the middle of new yrok. Their objective was to promote your new album 'Distant Horizon' and it was actually succesful as the video went viral! Congrats!
Cara: Thank you, they were amazing for doing that.
Jimmy Fallon: Let's talk about this album, it features the smash hit single 'La Belle' which probably everyone int he crowd knows already about *crowd screams* but maybe not as much this new single 'Honey'. The song was only a promotional single but still reached the 12th position on the charts, this sounds like it's going to be an impresisve hit as well!
Cara: Again it's all thanks to my fans who have been very supportive as you can see, and my label who worked just as much as I did those past few weeks as they were all around the world, putting up billboards, buying some promotional spots, booking me some shows... They are amazing and very supportive I'm lucky I found them and they found me, and I was very lucky for that since I was new in the industry when I signed with them.
Jimmy: You keep in repeating during interviews that you intend to explore different genres of music, what are they?
Cara: Well I'm mostly interested in some Eurodance music, Electronic music in general, synthpop, J-Pop or K-Pop and even Industrial and 80s Pop/Rock at the moment. I'm gonna take my time, and as I already said in the past, I'm already working on my next album and a small project.
Jimmy: What could this small project be?
Cara: Well the fans won't need to wait too long to find out what it is, it's coming very soon!
Jimmy: Come on... tell us!
Cara: Alright, well I'm actually re-releasing this album. 'DIstant Horizon' is going to have a re-release called 'Distant World' just like my tour is named. It's still too early to talk about, but the tracks featured on this re-release will be used as the official soundtrack of Fifty Shades of Grey. I'm just really excited about that!
Jimmy: Well that's amazing to hear! That's all the time we have, after the break, Cara will be back and will perform her new single 'Honey'!
After the break Cara wore an ensemble composed of a leather bikini with pink gloves and boots, which gave her a mysterious, sexy and playful look all at the same time. Cara performed a more pop version of the song which also sampled the Club mix version of the song featured on the Remix EP of the single. 'Honey' is now available separately or within the new album 'Distant Horizon'.

Charli XCX performs on Strictly Come Dancing
314 Words



Promoting both the third single 'Sucker' (Following the smash hit Boom Clap and the single Break The Rules) taken from the album of the same name which was released this week, Charli XCX started a tour in her homeland in the UK, where she performed in front of thousands of people at Wembley Stadium. Earlier this evening, Charli performed her brand new single on Strictly come dancing, one of the most watched competition shows in the UK which will surely aid her in reaching the top spot of the charts with her album.
Wearing a light pink crop top corset with bright red leather high waisted shorts and large black boots, Charli performed the song while dancers were twirling and dancing all around the stage and messing around making it look like a lot of fun. The whole crowd was up and clapping while cheering and screaming Charli's name and dancing around. At the beginning of the performance, Charli stood up on a large platform which was in a heart shape with large letters written in the 'SuperLove' font which spelled the word 'SUCKER' and Charli stood there with a replica of the heart shaped SUCKER lollipop shown on her album's cover. She got down on the actual stage while dancers were coming out of nowhere and formed a group behind Charli who led them on the stage while they all formed a triangular shape behind her, as if she was so army general. Once she said '**** YOU SUCKER!' Charli threw the lollipop away and both the crowd and the dancers (along with Charli) went wild, and so did the lights all around the stage which were turning around in an insanely fast motion. The performance was praised by Charli's fans who loved Charli's energy.
Charli XCX's new album 'SUCKER' is now available and so is her new single of the same name.

[C/H/A/N/E/L]

Alright.

I'm still working on things, but here's what I decided to do so far:

- Formula changes: Just a general shift of things. It's not a whole new formula, but it has changes. Some things are worth more, some things are worth less now. I can't give you details on what's worth more or less, really, but I will say that touring at a Stadium is now worth a bit more than it was, and I'm going to up the price for it by maybe just 1-3 points.

- Album/EP pricing: Instead of having 15 for a standard album (or an EP), 20 for a deluxe, or 25 for a special edition of albums, albums will now have a base cost of 10 points for 12 tracks, then each additional track will cost 1 point each. If you release a special edition of an album, that will cost an additional 5 points, plus 1 point for each additional track added compared to the regular standard/deluxe editions. EP's will now cost 7 points no matter what, but there can be no more than 9 tracks on an EP. Album rereleases will cost 8 points, plus 1 point for each additional track. Remix EP's will cost 6 points. The costs of singles, remix singles and promo singles will remain the same.

That's all I can think of right now, but I might make some more tweaks. I will update as I do so.

Lady Gaga – PARTYNAUSEOUS (feat. Madonna)


Made by ThePopReaper


Produced by: Fernando Garibay & Purity Ring.

Written by: Stefani Germanotta, Madonna Ciccone and Fernando Garibay.

Genres: EDM, Trance, Pop, Rave, Ambient-House.




It’s the collaboration we’ve been waiting for – The Queen of Pop, Madonna and the heiress to the throne, Lady Gaga. This Club-Trance banger, aptly titled “PARTYNAUSEOUS”, is from Lady Gaga’s upcoming and as of yet untitled 5th untitled studio album and is inspired by and written about Gaga’s experience in Jakarta 2 years ago, when she was condemned by Indonesian Islamic protestors and was forced to cancel her concerts there. The song is about “getting shitfaced and making love with a rival”, which is perhaps appropriate with the two pop divas Gaga and Madonna, who have a history of feuds over the past few years. Nevertheless, they have now joined forces to slay the game with a Japanese happycore, cybergothic, Euro-Trance party anthem. The question is – is anyone safe from the PARTYNAUSEOUS wrath this powerhouse pop duo is about to unleash? Watch the terror ensue…

Fans were surprised by the release of "PARTYNAUSEOUS", which has already reached the no. 1 spot on the iTunes charts in over 70 countries including the US, UK, Australia and Japan, and is strong at the top spot of Spotify's Viral 50. Music listeners, fans and critics alike have taken social media by storm with it's release and #PARTYNAUSEOUS is trending no. 1 worldwide on Twitter, just in front of #JeSuisCharlie, which has been a big discussion and story on Twitter as of late.

Lyrics:

Has anyone done GMA today?

[C/H/A/N/E/L]

I might change the article limit to 25 instead of 20 after this week. We'll see how that goes.

Please don't feel obliged to write 25 articles-- The limit is called a limit for a reason. It's a cap, so you don't write a hefty amount of articles while others don't do as much. It's a limit, not a requirement.

Lady Gaga and Madonna on GMA

Lady Gaga and Madonna appeared on Good Morning America today to promote their new collaboration “PARTYNAUSEOUS” They were interviewed by host Robin Roberts and performed the soon-to-be-hit in Times Square to thousands of fans and general public who gathered to see the two iconic pop divas perform. After the show, a spasm of recognition and praise erupted on social media and by bloggers, journalists, critics and reviewers.



Robin: In the studio we have with us two female pop powerhouses, the queen and princess of pop, the two you have all been waiting for this morning, you at home and the thousands here waiting in Times Square, Lady Gaga and Madonna! Good morning.

Gaga: Good morning to you!

Madonna: Yes! That was a very nice introduction, by the way.

Robin: Thank you! You know I had to, you both deserve such a grand welcoming. Now, you two have a new song out together. Tell us about “PARTYNAUSEOUS”.

Gaga: Well, it’s a song I wrote a few years ago now when I was in Indonesia and Islamic protestors were protesting against my show, and the concept of it is just that when you are enemies, just come together and party.

Madonna: And get sh*tfaced.

Gaga: *laughs* And that too.

Robin: I have to remind you, Madonna that this is a family show and we’re airing live.
Madonna: Well, I apologize.

Robin: So Gaga, this new single has us all hyped for a brand new album and era for you. What will be the concept for the new LP?

Gaga: That’s a great question! I wouldn’t want to delve too deep into all the details as of yet, but I’ll say that I let out all the poison and the toxins that I accumulated within my soul in the last few years into this album. I’ll also let you know that it’s very conceptual and it’s definitely a story.
Robin: Well, it sounds marvellous! I’m really excited to see the result. And Madonna, you released 6 songs from your new album, Rebel Heart which is your 13th studio album now! What can we expect from the rest of the album?

Madonna: Well, it’s very much based on my attitude to life at the moment and I feel like it kind of sums up my life and career in one little record. It’s a bonafide pop record, so expect some great bangers in there. But it’s really an album about being an artist and self expression. #RebelHeart.

Robin: *laughs* #RebelHeart indeed. And can we expect some collaborations on this album?

Madonna: Definitely. I’ve collaborated with Nicki Minaj on the song which we’ll call “B I’m Madonna” for now, and I think it’s the third time we’ve collaborated. But yeah, definitely a few more.

Robin: And anymore collaborations on your upcoming album, Gaga?

Gaga: Besides this amazing and personally much-loved one with the Queen of Pop herself, there will be more, yes.

Robin: And how our things with Taylor?

Gaga: Oh, it’s going great! Thank you for asking.

Robin: You’re welcome! Can you see any babies or marriage in the future, if you don’t mind me asking?

Gaga: Oh, of course I don’t mind. I’m so used to this question. But honestly, the answer will still be ‘no’ for a little while longer I think. Neither of us are ready yet.

Robin: Well, thank you for sharing that. And Madonna, single? Taken?

Madonna: There is someone, but I don’t think I’d call myself taken just yet.
Robin: That’s interesting.

Madonna: Well, you know what I mean. It’s not… serious.

Robin: Oh, OK. I think I know just what you mean. Well, are you ready to perform for us?
Gaga: Of course!

Robin: Well, we’re gonna have to take a break now but don’t go anywhere because the queens of pop music themselves, Lady Gaga and Madonna will be performing their new single, “PARTYNAUSEOUS”. Stay tuned.

Robin: Welcome back to Good Morning America. I am standing in Times Square with fans of the queen of pop, Madonna and Lady Gaga’s Little Monsters who are awaiting their queens to take the stage. Are you guys excited?!

*crowd screams*

Robin: And here they come, ladies and gentlemen please welcome Madonna and Lady Gaga!
*crowd goes chaotic*


The performance begins with multiple dancers in gothic raver-style outfits, which are made of black pleather. A dramatic, stripped back instrumental of PARTYNAUSEOUS plays with just the drum beat. Gaga suddenly appears on stage to a smoking hot welcome by the anticipating crowd as she begins to sing her verse. She is wearing black lipstick, an illuminous neon green wig and a Givenchy by Ricardo Tisci bodysuit.

Madonna then joins her and begins to sing her parts, wearing dark purple lipstick, a fringed pink wig and in a lacey noir bodysuit also by Givenchy.



Madonna and Gaga stand at opposite sides of the stage as the dancers split in half and crowd around each one of them, as both opposing cliques stare each other down and do technical and provocative choreography.

"We're currently set from the East
I be queen Madon-na-na
We're PARTYNAUSEOUS 'cause moi
seem to ‘ve some problem with ya
We're currently set from the West
My name is Lady Gaga
We're PARTYNAUSEOUS 'cause moi
seem to 've some problem with ya"

For the build-up, the two cliques collide together as Gaga and Madonna come face to face together. They then begin to grind on each other. As the nightcore/trance style chorus kicks in, the dynamic duo begins to do fast-paced vogue and goth-rave fusioned choreography and strobe lights go off.

The performance continues with a segment where Madonna and Gaga duel with fluorescent pink and green disco sticks, and even more extravagant and technical dancing. The crowd applauds.

Well, that's 10 points for the 12 base tracks, then 7 more points to get to 19 tracks, so that's 17 points right there, then you'll be charged 5 points for releasing the special addition, then 3 additional points for the extra tracks, so it's a total of 25 points.

I'm updating the OP right now, by the way!

The OP won't be drastically different. I still have the colored background that Egle set up, but I'm putting the actual content in text so I can edit it as I please.

Also, would you guys be down for a "debut risk"?

This would be, that for the first time a song is released & charting, it can either have a boost or decrease, based entirely on chance? It would be an equal chance of either, but it can help or lower your sales. It would only happen the first week, to represent how the public may either instantly cling to or take some time adjusting to a newly-released song.

[C/H/A/N/E/L]

OP has been updated!

I'll get to updating the artist's post later. Might dumb it down and not have it so formatted.

[UFO]

Let me read over these updated rules

I'd be here for that debut risk thingy btw but how would that work exactly?

Just like some random bonus. Flip a coin, heads you get the bonus from the risk, tails you get the subtraction. It's nothing huge, just a small little thing I thought of, but it's probably dumb.

Azealia on Conan

To further promotion of the just released album, The Dying Stars, as well as the lead single Metamorph, Azealia appeared on Conan O'Brien's tv show where she talked about everything from how the album came to be to the meaning behind each of the music videos she released as part of the The Dying Stars visual release. Azealia's appearance on Conan drew great attention from critics who complimented Azealia's honesty throughout the interview and her complete candid attitude. Azealia's vocals through the performance were also heavily complimented as a huge strength of hers and that she should use them to her best ability at all times when able to. Azealia spoke about her excitement to appear on Conan's talk show by saying the following about her appearance on the late night TBS tv show "I am more than excited to be performing and being interviewed on Conan's show. Conan O'Brien is a legend within the late night talk show region and for me to have the ability and blessing to perform on his show is more than an honor. It's such a privilege to be able to go on the show. It's something most people in their life won't be able to experience, going on Conan's show to be interviewed and perform. I will be sure to put in all my effort and make this performance no different than all other performances I've given in the past. No one will be able to stop me during this performance as I have been preparing for weeks" Azealia's performance on Conan's show consisted of a mash up of Metamorph, Fly, and Space Oddity, all of which are released songs on the album, regular single or promotional single. During Azealia's interview, they discussed things such as "Why did she ride a camel on tv?" and "What was it like to make a directorial debut?" All questions and more were discussed in the interview.

During the performance portion of the night, Azealia had been preparing for this moment for weeks, taking time to rehearse for the night every day of the week making sure this performance would be more than perfect for the television audience that watched from home. When asked about her preparation for this show and different shows Azealia said the following "Well this performance is different due to the fact that I will be performing all three songs with no break. A huge ten minute performance and it is a one time thing only like I can't just say 'Oh well there's next time' that's not the case here. Everyone sees your performances and you have to always be on point and never mess up. That's the difference. It's that way with all live performances and that's why you must always be totally and more than prepared every time you are about to take the stage to perform." During Azealia's performance on Conan's program she wore a Valentino lace robe, all rose pink. Beneath the robe Azealia adorned a black silk leotard and tall black boots as well to finish off the complete look, all designed by Valentino. Azealia's hair had been done and formed by professional hairdressers who gave her a 40s pinup look with bright red lipstick which she had on during the performance. Azealia's dancers were seen with matching leotards, four girl dancers in total. They all had their hair in loose curls which bounced with every step they took. Azealia's dancers all had large ostrich feather fans which were very large and extravagant. Azealia started out the performance as violins and harps played. She looked into a mirror she had in hand and fixed her hair as the dancers walked across the stage with the ostrich feather fans. Azealia began to throw down the mirror, then picking it up to reveal it was a microphone. She began to then sing Metamorph in a jazzy tune to fit in with all the violins and beautiful instrumentals happening. After the performance of Metamorph, Azealia began to perform Fly, she ripped off her pink robe and let her hair fly as she shook it out. Wires then lifted her up as she flew threw the audience and began to sing Fly without skipping a beat. The last song Azealia performed was Space Oddity. During the Space Oddity she had landed in the back of the audience. She grabbed a glass bowl from someone and put it on her head, resembling a space man's headgear. She performed Space Oddity with the head gear on her head as the audience oo'd and aah'd at Azealia's ability to never skip a beat as she sat in the aisles of the audience performing Space Oddity with a large space helmet on her head. The crowd was in shock and was in love with the performance, giving a huge round of applause people from Africa could hear. Along with that, she got a standing ovation. Azealia smiled and was in overall joy at the positive reaction from the fans. After multiple commercials advertising The Dying Stars, Azealia was back on Conan and ready to be interviewed.

Azealia's interview on Conan was heavily drawn attention to and got Azealia's name trending on Twitter multiple times, all talking about and letting it be known of what Azealia had been saying. The interview has now been uploaded numerous times on Vine, YouTube, and Instagram where people have made jokes about things Azealia said throughout the piece. During the interview, Azealia was called out by Conan and she was clapped and cheered on by the audience members before she went to take a seat in the hot seat where Conan began firing questions towards Azealia's way. Azealia was first asked about what she did to come up with the album and be in that specific state of mind in which she had for the album's formation and release. When asked about all of this, Azealia responded with a slight skip in her step saying the following "Well creating the album was something else. It's not something anyone could do. It's not your average album anyone could pop out a week before release. The Dying Stars is a work that takes effort, which some never seem to put in. The Dying Stars was a work of art. I'm not trying to be cute or funny. I believe it is a work of art that deserves appreciation. While making The Dying Stars, I went to go live in Senegal, which is the most western area of Africa. Such a beautiful culture and land. Their entire culture is so heavily underrated. Well, anyways. So I went to Senegal where I studied their culture and got in touch with the tribes and got them to help me. They all helped me find my inner soul and spirit. They truly built up who I am today. Their knowledge and strength helped me come to the realization that I must find who I am besides "Azealia Banks" I need to get in touch with the world around me. I need to get in touch with the stars. So I studied thoroughly the beauty of the stars and all the constellations out in the night sky. It was an intense study and I believe it's all coming to fruition as I believe the album is so perfect the way it is and I wouldn't change it. I can only thank the beautiful tribes of people in Senegal for all that has happened to me as of late. Thank you, everyone. Thank you." The crowd applauded Azealia at this response and all nodded their head. People in Senegal have all become great fans of Azealia, acknowledging her by having her top their local charts for the past few weeks, having Azealia break multiple records within the beautiful African country.

After the discussion of how the album, The Dying Stars, came to be, Azealia went on to discuss even more about the album and its beauty of how it came to be. When Conan asked about the visual portion of the album and how it felt to direct something so serious and huge, Azealia responded to Conan's questioning of the visual portion of the album by saying the following "Creating and directing the visual part of the album was crazy. See I directed Metamorph as well but creating all those videos. Wow. Truly hard work and something I am very proud of. Each video I released has such a special and beautiful meaning that I want the world to see and I would love to share an in depth discussion as to how each came to be some time in the future. I feel that after the Space Oddity video and the Fly videos are released, I will be able to discuss this in more full. I am very proud of the beauty I have created though. I am more than happy at the fans' response to how it has all come together. Thank you guys."
