AVRIL LAVIGNE covers BILLBOARD MAGAZINE
Avril Lavigne: "I'm Not Just The Typical Pop Girl"
880 Words
After record-setting success from her debut 13 years ago and string of hit singles, the Pop Rock Royalty sees the light and climbs her way back to the top, This time she wants the world to know that she is more than just a pop girl you know.
"Honestly, I have came to a point of forgetting who I really was." Coming from Avril Lavigne -- such a statement that could lead fans feel bad for her. But today, Avril finally has stepped outside the smoke and bratty bubblegum pop world. Billboard came to visit Avril whose sitting on a couch in a rehearsal studio in New York. -- where she is preparing for her live appearances at the Good Morning America in just a few days . Wearing zero makeup, with her hair pulled back and sporting black
Adidas workout pants and a hoodie over a "Abbey Dawn" T-shirt, Lavigne sips on a grande
Starbucks iced coffee. Lavigne enjoyed the success of her past albums especially her first three albums which cemented her place on Pop Music scene.
But just like any other pop star, there comes a time when they reached a point of losing their magic touch for a brief moment and Lavigne admitted that she have experienced that dreaded situation but she is also proud to say that she already moved on and she's now making a huge comeback which critics and general public agrees in unison that AVRIL LAVIGNE is truly back and they are liking what she is serving us this time.
Billboard: Your star seems to shine brighter this 2015, are you happy with what things are going in with your career right now?
Avril Lavigne: Of course, I am so happy that people and critics somehow gets to appreciate my music once again and this time it is even more special since I am back with my most sincere record.
Billboard: Sure thing, The past 3 years is not that good for you, Do you regret doing those thinga in the past?
Avril Lavigne: If I deny that those years are not good though it didn't benefited me in any way, then I'll be a hypocrite but to be honest, I may have done mistakes in the past but what matters now is how you get up and try to prove yourself once more. I have no regrets in general but there are things that I would like to improve a bit in the past.
Billboard: Tell us what you're current music sounds like?
Avril Lavigne: My music is now more personal, diverse and experimental. I made sure that I will show the world that I am not just a typical or an ordinary pop girl.
Billboard: Your first single "I'll Lie To Myself" tugged on our heartstrings and we crave for music like that. Are you heading to more serious side of music right now?
Avril Lavigne: Yes, definitely. My new album have ballads but we also included mature dance-pop tracks that is appropriate with my current image and age as well.
Billboard: We have heard you collaborated with other musicians on this record, can you now tell us who are they?
Avril Lavigne: Sure, for my newest promotional single, Timbaland produced it for me and he also produced other tracks on my album. I have recorded duets with my good friend Adele and it is like a diva to diva styled face off. Adam Levine also recorded a song with me on my new record. So, its really fun!
Billboard: Looks like you are now open to collaborations, are you following the trend?
Avril Lavigne: I can say partly yes, but As i have said awhile ago, I am not just a typical pop girl. I just wanna share to everyone who I am.
Billboard: Which artists would you like to collaborate someday?
Avril Lavigne:Maybe artists that have different sound from me. Beyonce or Rihanna, even Katy Perry! All of them to be honest.
Billboard:Which artists you would not like to work with?
Avril Lavigne:Rude artists. Any artist who disrespects her co-artists don't deserve my time and effort.
Billboard: To wrap it up, What are yout advice to budding artists who looks up to you and likes to achieve what you also achieved?
Avril Lavigne: Good question, Just dream and make sure you also do what it takes to make it happen. Always be open to feedbacks but never let it dishearten you or lose your drive. Lastly, Just be yourself always.
Avril Lavigne carved her name on the industry at an early age which amazed everyone but her musical journey also showed that anyone can lose that spark if you get too absorbed on fame. Avril's resurgence this 2015 is a living proof that good talent will never be forgotten. Thus, it will continue to flourish over time.
Avril Lavigne's "I'll Lie To Myself" is still available globally while Avril Lavigne's "Hot Stuff" is now available on iTunes, amazon and other digital retailers worldwide. Another good news is that once you pre-order Avril Lavigne's newest Album "Heartfelt Confessions," You also get to have "Hot Stuff" automatically.
Heartfelt Confessions will be available on January 12, 2015

Christina releases third single, Amethyst Bleach
Length: 4:23
Genre(s): Industrial Pop
Producer(s): Bloodshy & Avant
Writer(s): Christina Aguilera, Imogen Heap
At midnight, Christina Aguilera announced and confirmed the release of her third single from the 2015 release - Truth Pill. The song is called Amethyst Bleach and will serve to promote Aguilera's experimental 8th studio album until felt necessary. In actual fact, she has already performed Amethyst Bleach multiple times before on various platforms in order to promote Truth Pill during its album release week. In addition, we assume she was just testing the waters to see which album track the general public took to the most. Amethyst Bleach has already garnered quite a lot of controversy, even before it's official release, due to it's taboo and intense subject matter of self-harm which is motivated by the materialism observed throughout the song. It tackles an aspect of all of us that isn't normally explored in pop music but, then again, Amethyst Bleach isn't just your average pop song.
The third single is produced by the likes of Bloodshy & Avant who are most known for their gritty yet attainable sound which is most notable featured in Britney Spears' timeless hit Toxic. In addition, Amethyst Bleach is listed as being "industrial pop" although the track does incorporate more rock and urban influences than just that. It's hard to pinpoint which era Amethyst Bleach could fit in which might be a great thing since the track could pioneer a new wave of music that we haven't yet heard of before, just like Skrillex and his dubstep. Aguilera's vocals on the gritty track are extremely raw and well-executed. Her signature riffs and runs aren't as featured on Amethyst Bleach compared to her other songs but she does make it known how much of a powerhouse vocalist she is. The verses are quite light and airy, almost whimsical-sounding in comparison to the gruff chorus and on-edge bridge in which the entire song leads up to. It's the toughest we've heard Christina Aguilera be since the masterpiece that is Fighter released back in 2001.
Christina is sitting on a worn-out stool upholstered by ratty ass fabric on the single cover for Amethyst Bleach. Her hair is - quite affectionately - bleached a crimson black and is layered to the side with natural waves and kinks. She wears a onepiece night gowwn embroidered by cream pearls and poses triumphantly on the stool although there's a tinge of sadness behind her ocean-blue eyes. It is simplistic but gets the message across and is actually effective in mirroring what the song means.
Amethyst Bleach is like a social commentary on how far society has gone to impose a certain materialistic and commercial aspect to everything we do, with Christmas being a prime example of how everything revolves around money nowadays. In the song, Christina sings from the perspective of a scar-ridden socialite who has been pressured to change her entire aesthetic which has pushed her to the edge. It talks about self-harm and the ridicules of society and how we have had to adapt in order to be perceived as "tolerable" in our society. The term "amethyst bleach" is actually a play on words and can be interpreted as Christina saying that we must cleanse ourselves in order to be that "amtheyst" that sciety wants us to be. It can also be interpreted as the "bleach" being a mask to hide away Christina's true self, hence, why it's an "amethyst bleach". But, we digress. No matter how you interpret this song... we cannot deny that it's a ****ing great song! The contrasting tone in the verses compared to the chorus is very Kate Bush and almost gives a sense of relief when listening to the song.

Cara performs on Australia's Got Talent
539 Words
After a few days spent in Japan, Cara hoped off to the next plane to AUstralia for a little bit of Australia promotion, where Cara Delevingne's fans have been waiting for her to come back to ever since the Explicit Magazine tour which occurred back in 2013 between october and december. Wearing a Alexander Wang outfit, Cara Delevingne was welcome by screaming ecstatic fans of all ages, most of them who had bought Cara Delevingne's brand new album 'Distant Horizon' which is now available. The album also features the hit singles 'La Belle' and 'Honey', and another Top 15 promotional single which even managed to sell over 200 thousand copies within a week, an impressive deed for a promotional single. The hype for Cara Delevingne is obviously enormous and her label is not letting the hype die down at any cost, Cara Delevingne's new single is even predicted to reach the Top 3 this week after easily reaching the twelfth position last week as a promotional single.
Cara Delevingne just completed a performance of her single 'Honey' on Australia's Got Talent, one of Australia's most watched shows. Wearing a pastel pink overall outfit by Pucci, Cara Delevingne stepped out to greet her fans in front of her hotel before heading to the studio, and was apparently seen singing along with her fans the lyrics of 'La Belle' as a small celebration of the hit single which is nearing platinum status and her the debut of the album 'Distant Horizon' at the second spot worldwide only blocked by the one and only Taylor Swift.
The performance started right off, after a video showing Cara Delevingne's achievements was projected on the gigantic show's screen. Cara got out on stage wearing a long white see through overall which was similar to her previous pastel pink outfit. Cara was standing up as a platform advanced her on stage and Cara sang the lyrics of the RnB ****ty song as if it was a ballad. Cara then opened her eyes looking determined and took the microphone off the stand in which it was included and started singing in a sultry yet strong voice while the beat started getting faster and faster. Dancers came out of stage and they started dancing all around Cara. "How are you feeling Australia? Dance!" Cara said as she started off the choreography along with the dancers. Two male dancers ripped Cara's outfit, leaving only a white lace bikini with encrusted diamonds, and two female dancers attached to her large angel wings, reminiscent of her days as a model and a Victoria's Secret Angel. Cara started moving around looking happy yet ****ty and ready for an amazing night. The performance went on normally then with the dancers just doing a few impressive moves along with the rest of the choreography and Cara dancing with them while wearing the wings. The performance ended with Cara being lifted up in the air as the wings were attached to the top of the venue. Pictures of Cara during the performance were ALL around the internet within minutes and Cara was the subject of discussion of many people around the globe.
Cara Delevingne's 'Honey' is now available and so is the album 'Distant Horizon'.

Xtina performs on The View
This morning, Christina Aguilera appeared on the flagship daytime talk show The View and performed the third single from her 2015 experimental record - Truth Pill. The song is called Amethyst Bleach and is quite controversial for The View so some parts of the performance and the song itself had to be toned down. This isn't the first time Christina has performed Amethyst Bleach although it is the first televised performance where the track is actually confirmed to be a single. Unfortunately, Christina didn't quite have enough time to sit down and talk with the ladies but assured them that she will be back sometime soon in the not too distant future. She sheepishly smiled back at the audience's cheers and applause as she said: "What's up! Hahaha it's so nice to see you guys. You ready?" The View had just returned from its hiatus during the holiday season so Christina Aguilera was proud to headline its much missed return to our screens.
She wore a creamy beige blouse with a fleece cardigan by American Apparel. The white ensemble gave Christina an angelic look as she donned her signature platinum blonde hair. Having said that, halfway through the performance, the clothes Christina was wearing turned jet black and her hair somehow magically transformed into a shade of cherry black. It shocked many viewers with people on social media blowing up asking Christina how she did that in front of her eyes. She still has remained quiet although we believe that pyrotechnics were somewhat incorporated into the performance. Christina sang all the way through Amethyst Bleach very aggressively although, this time, the chorus was much laidback compared to the verses. This was an interesting change since it is the other way round in the actual studio version of the Bloodshy & Avant-produced track. Christina always manages to find a way to switch it up when performing one of her songs live instead of just reciting the lyrics word-by word. It's what our girl does! There were actually a few technical difficulties at the start of the performance because the sound wasn't being picked up. Thankfully, The View is usually on a ten minute delay so everything was re-calibrated before the performance was aired.
Christina gave out autographs before and after the performance and even took selfies with the crew working backstage. They circulated on Twitter before Christina posted a few more pics on her official Instagram account which was deactivated for a while before she went on The View due to maintenance and a complete re-haul in order to fit in with her new era. The View is aired in many countries across the globe so a lot more people saw the star-studded performance. Christina has frequently performed on The View and rumours were rampant when Barbara Walters left. Many thought that the producers were going to sign Christina on for her place on The View. However, nothing else came to fruition after it was confirmed that Christina won't be joining the panel.

Flash mob to Cara Delevingne's songs in New York City, Video goes Viral
520 Words
.jpg)
Last night, New Yorkers were surprised when a large group of dancers, a group of over a thousand of dancers of ages ranging between 18 and 25 years old danced to multiple songs from Cara Delevingne's debut album 'CARA' and her brand new album 'Distant Horizon'. Not only the flash mob was recorded professionally, the video was also posted before being removed and re-added, this time on Cara Delevingne's own Official channel, making it count for streaming points of both 'La Belle' and 'Honey', both being featured in the flash mob. The video also went viral within hours after it was posted on Cara's channel, after thousands started streaming the flash mob, mostly fans who then shared the video across social networks and spread the video, until it became the highest watched video on Youtube of the week and being feature don Youtube's homepage. "My fans are ****ing amazing! Look what they did!" Cara posted on twitter along with a link to the video. She tweeted multiple times this night to thank her very dedicated fans. The performance was apparently planned for weeks, and then pushed back after the announcement of more Cara Delevingne music coming and the release of her album, and the choreographers decided to change the playlist of the flash mob.
The flash mob started off as a surprise, when thousands started running throughout Times square before forming a circle and starting their choreography to Cara Delevingne's debut single which launched her music career to superstardom, 'Magazine'. The moves were amazing, especially for regular fans who also were part of the show. Following 'Magazine', is the song 'Distant Horizon', which introduced the passer bys to Cara's new album who enjoyed the song a lot. The dance moves were simpler than in the first one, more focused around moves which required multiple people holding each other. 'La Belle' followed and caused a roar in the crowd, as the song is a huge hit at the moment, a song which people are jamming to constantly on the radio these days which is instantly recognizable. The urban smash hit featured a more tribal-like moves, inspired by one of Cara's own performances, the performance of 'La Belle' at the EMAs. An impressive series of dance moves made by professional dancers (all of which are Cara Delevingne fans who joined in willingly without being actually hired) concluded the song, right at the same moment where 'Once' started, a urban song with a certain disco feeling and inspire instrumental, as it was produced by Giorgio Moroder. The dancers went into a real disco inspired choreography as an homage but with more impressive and faster moves. Concluding the flash mob was the smash in the making 'Honey', which already charted within the top 15 as a promotional single last week. The performance featured slower and sexier moves then all of the previous performances, and still impressed the crowd. After the choreography ended, all the dancers screamed "Buy Distant Horizon Now! Featuring Singles 'La Belle' and 'Honey'!" as they started to applaud and cheer and everyone in the crowd that formed around them joining in.

CLARE BOWEN
CMT EXCLUSIVE
This weekend, Clare Bowen stopped by Country Music Television to sit down for a lovely interview and perform three songs from her upcoming album, ‘Clare Bowen’, out on February 1st. All three songs she sung were tracks transferred from Nashville soundtracks. She opened the special singing the opening track to her album, “Looking For a Place to Shine”. Later sometime in the episode, she sung her lead single, “Black Roses”. She then wrapped up the special inviting Charles Esten (Deacon Claybourne on Nashville) in-studio to perform their duet “This Town”. In doing so, “Black Roses” managed to sustain in the Top Three on the Country iTunes chart. Having debuted at #21 last week on the CAL Singles chart, Bowen looks to shift more than 65.000 units this week- possibly tripling that number.
[Performance of “Looking For a Place to Shine”]
Host /// “Ladies and gentlemen, Clare Bowen! That was fantastic.”
Clare /// “Thank you.”
Host /// “So let’s sit down and have a quick chat.”
Clare /// “Sure.”
Host /// “So Miss Bowen, we all know you for playing Scarlett O’Connor on our favorite Country-musical-drama Nashville. What’s just the overall experience of that?”
Clare /// “I love playing Scarlett lots. In many different ways, I see bits of myself in her, and the cast is just amazing.”
Host /// “The season is set to come back in a few weeks, correct?”
Clare /// “Yes, at the end of the month.”
Host /// “Can you tell us anything about it?”
Clare /// “Lemme just say, if y’all thought there was a lot of drama in the past few seasons… you’re in for a little awakening. This season definitely stands as the most dramatic, for me, yet. In terms of the music though, my character gets back out there and Scarlett really begins to understand her abilities.”
Host /// “So that’s kinda like real life, right? Since you’ve been happening to be creating your debut.”
Clare /// “I guess so.”
Host /// “So let’s jump right into it, the album. It’s self-titled, and drops in two weeks. You ready?”
Clare /// “The music is definitely ready, but I don’t think I am. We’ve been planning promotion for a little bit, and it’s very exciting, but quite overwhelming. I kinda wanna do something different, as opposed to going on many different shows. We’re trying to be a little creative.”
Host /// “There have been many speculations as to the sound of your album; I’m sure it varies quite a lot… what can you say about that?”
Clare /// “Well the roots of the album are absolutely Country, but it branches out into other genres- Alternative, Rock, Jazz and a little bit of Pop/Rhythmic and just has this really… organic and big sound to it. It definitely does vary a lot.”
Host /// “So your character has been known for having quite slow, somber tracks. Can we expect any up-tempos on this album?”
Clare /// “Yes! There are some up-tempos on the album, although most of it is more on the slow, somber side. There’s a track called ‘Ghost’ which was one of the first songs I’ve finished, it’s very up-beat, but more on the Country-Rock side with lots of intensity.”
Host /// “Many critics have been roaming around to call you the Lana Del Rey of Country music; would you agree?”
Clare /// “I love Lana Del Rey and see many similarities in our music, but I don’t really know her quite well enough to make a statement on that. I see myself as quite different though. She’s definitely a lot more poetic than I am, for sure!”
Host /// “Have you written anything on this album?”
Clare /// “Yes, I did write some of the songs on the album. A few were ‘1492’, which I’m insanely proud of; ‘Ghost’, which I love; and ‘Railroads’ which is very cozy. I wrote a few more, but not that much.”
Host /// “So let’s get to your lead single, the Nashville fan-favorite, ‘Black Roses’.”
Clare /// “Yes.”
Host /// “Was it the success of it that lead you to choose this as the first single?”
Clare /// “We definitely saw it as a good factor, but it was more so of the fact that my fans, and Nashville fans, just responded to the song so well and wanted everything for it- radio airplay, performances, a music video- all of that.”
Host /// “So we’ve gotten some radio airplay for it and a performance or two- what about the music video?”
Clare /// “We’re currently shooting the music video for it. It’s very beautiful. It’s just very simple, raw, and organic- like the song and album. I really do think people will appreciate it.”
Host /// “Shall we get to the performance?”
Clare /// “Sure.”
[Performance of “Black Roses”]
Host /// “That was brilliant Clare.”
Clare /// “Thank you.”
Host /// “One thing I really admire about you is the raw talent you have. You sound exact to the vocal on the record.”
Clare /// “Thanks!”
Host /// “So when did you first know you wanted to sing?”
Clare /// “When I was a kid growing up in Australia, I just had this voice that my parents really thought was talented. I was trained in opera, and they were definitely supported. I always tried singing in public, or writing some songs- but that never really worked out the much.”
Host /// “When did acting come along?”
Clare /// “In my teenage years. I developed a passion for acting just because I was so isolated when I was growing up, and just liked the whole concept of building your own world- whether based off something true or something fiction. And then I started getting into Country, which led to me finding ABC and them picking me up for the show. It was all really hectic and fast- but it was a great process.”
Host /// “So you’ve worked with many fellows on Nashville- off-set and on. Who do you have the biggest relationships with?”
Clare /// “Definitely Sam Palladio and Charles Esten! And no- before you can ask- Sam Palladio and I are not dating, we both are in very nice relationships at the moment.”
Host /// “You obviously migrated two tracks from Nashville with them on the album. What motivated you to pick them?”
Clare /// “My collaboration with Sam, ‘If I Didn’t Know Better’, just sonically fit perfectly on the album, and it’s one of my favorites I’ve done on Nashville. Lots of people seem to enjoy it. While lots of people and the label wanted a Jonathan Jackson collaboration, or another Sam Palladio collaboration on the album- I wasn’t about that. ‘This Town’, with Charles Esten, is easily my favorite Nashville song and my favorite collaboration on the album. It has such an amazing sound, lyrics and our vocals just blend amazingly. And in fact, I’d love to bring him out right now. He’s with us.”
Charles /// “Hey guys.”
Host /// “Hi Charles.”
Charles /// “It’s good to be here.”
Host /// “So tell me- you and Clare play an uncle-niece relationship on Nashville. Does that translate in real life?”
Clare /// “Of course!”
Charles /// “Definitely- we take really good care of each other.”
Host /// “So when Clare asked for you to join her on her album, what was your initial response?”
Charles /// “Hell yeah! I’m in such support of her, I know she’s gonna do incredible things- I’m honored to be a part of her record. Her debut especially, that’s amazing.”
Host /// “And rumor has it that both of you will be touring together. Can you confirm?”
Clare /// “Yes, we’re touring with Sam Palladio.”
Charles /// “What you mean ‘we’re’. It’s your tour!”
Clare /// “That’s true.”
Host /// “So will they be opening?”
Clare /// “Yes, but they’ll definitely perform with me for our collaborations and we’re working on a little cute finale thing. The tour will be announced quite shortly, right about the time of the album.”
Host /// “Well Clare, Charles- pleasure meeting the both of you. Wrap it up?”
Charles /// “Yes.”
[Performance of “This Town”]
Host /// “Amazing, amazing, amazing stuff right there. Clare Bowen’s self-titled album comes out on February 1st. Her single, ‘Black Roses’, is out right now. Thanks for joining us!"

Cara: Yeah, those fans are amazing!
Host: Speaking of amazing and dedicated fans, there's been this flash mob in the middle of New Yrok, did you see the video?

Host: Not only that but the video also went viral all around social networks! You have very dedicated fans!
Cara: Yeah it's great to see such dedication within my fan base, I'd just love to thank them all.
Host: So let's talk about your music, the flash mob was done around your brand new album 'Distant Horizon' even if it featured your first hit. What songs do you really like on the album?

Host: Let's talk about your latest single, 'Honey' when did you get inspiration for it? You wrote it yourself.
Cara: Well like most sex songs on the album it really was about the first few days with Kendall when we used to just be horny all the time and constantly mess around... It was great time which constantly gave me ideas for those lyrics.
Host: What do you like the most about those songs?
Cara: Well it does not only concern those sex songs but all the songs on the album, I really love the memories that I get from them. It's like a diary you know, without it being too girlish and dealing with real issues or real good times I had.
Cara then wore a beautiful light orange short dress with large sleeves, along with large black boots and feathers and roses in her hair, Cara looked amazing in the boho inspired looked. She sang her latest single 'Honey' along with only two female dancers behind her, but the performance was less sexual then it usually is, as Cara just did a slower choreography then the usual as well just moving along with he beat.

Following the album's title track, Charli performed 'I Love It', the 2012 hit song, which she wrote for Icona Pop and which managed to reach the top 8 on the charts. The song made everyone in the crowd jump along with Charli putting everyone in an incredible mood.
After the crowd started cheering, asking for the song 'Breaking Up', Charli decided to go with what the crowd wanted and started the punk influenced song, which received a music video in early december. The song was by both Charli and the crowd who was just dancing along the song and shouting or singing the lyrics with Charli. Following was the song 'Need Ur Luv' a fan favorite the whole crowd just loved the cute song on the record so it was a big highlight. The final song was yet another fan favorite, 'Doint It' which was rumored to be a single before 'Sucker' was announced as third single.
After her performance, Charli sat down for a small interview during which she discussed a multitude of topics but most importantly announced her first STADIUM tour. SO far she only revealed dates for this week and only 3 them but more are supposed to follow.

Cara Delevingne performs at the ARIA Awards
736 Words
Cara Delevingne is in Australia right now promoting her latest single 'Honey' which reached the #1 spot on ITunes or the Australian ITunes charts at least, the song is taken from her brand new album 'DIstant Horizon'. As part of the promotion for the single, Cara Delevingne stopped by the ARIA Music Awards (which actually means Australian Recording Industry Association Music Awards) to not only perform and attend but also present awards and receive some. Cara walked on the red carpet wearing a John Galliano big puffy red dress with some beautiful make up on and she posed all by herself while the cameras didn't stop flashing as paparazzi were going crazy over her appearance, her outfit and her overall look.
Cara presented the Best Male Artist and won multiple awards from the multiple nominations she received. She was nominated for Song of The Year for 'La Belle' which she won, Album of the year for 'Distant Horizon' which she also won, Best Female artist being her third award of the night, Best International Act which she won and Best Video which she was only nominated in without winning it. Cara obviously had a big night with those all those awards to take home.
For her performance, Cara performed the single 'Honey'. The performance started at the middle of the stage on a huge oversized golden bed. Cara was wearing a white Versace leotard with a golden simple belt, black stripper boots which were custom made by Jimmy Choo and had her hair up in a very sexy ponytail. Cara sang the song with a high pitched sultry voice at first. She then started to advance on the golden bed and dancers started coming out of it, breaking through the cover by tearing them apart. They get to Cara who now was laying down her back on the bed and her head falling off the bed. Cara sang the lyrics in a sexy voice while the dancers were all around her moving in very explicit and teasing manners. During the breakdown, Cara got down on the stage and did a highly sexualized choreography which went on during an extra verse added which actually was Azealia Banks' verse from a remix of 'Honey' yet to be released. Cara Delevingne ended her performance standing at the center of the stage while the dancers were all around the stage posing in various positions looking ready to have sex and full of lust.
Cara also posed at the press room where she talked about different things including her relationship with Kendall, the 'Honey' music video, doing music, her third album, the rumors surrounding her career and movie rumors.
Journalist: Can you tell us a little bit about you and Kendall?
Cara: We're very happy together, it's amazing to have her and she supports me a lot just like I do with her.
Journalist: There's rumors you're doing a movie?
Cara: Well there is Paper Towns but that's for later on. Another movie might be filmed but I'm not sure about it just yet.
Host: You've just released your second album, when would you want to release your third album?
Cara: I don't want to take my time with it. I want it to sound amazing but I don't want to take too much time with it. I'm pretty focused on a specific direction with it and I'm already working really hard on it. I'm expecting another album very soon.
Host: What musical direction will you take with this one?
Cara: Eurodance with some Electronica and Electronic hip-hop beats but it's really mostly Eurodance. I'm working with a few very talented people for it.
Host: Could you reveal a few names of producers which will be found on the album?
Cara: Well I've constantly have been saying I wanted to work with Stromae on music and he's actually one of my biggest collaborators on the album, and not just as a singing collaboration, he's really involved with the whole process.
Host: You've released a 'Honey' music video already, will you release a music video for the remix which features Azealia Banks?
Cara: I'd really like too but maybe not this week we will see.
Cara also attended the after party wearing a beautiful short black dress with a large white luxurious mask with pearls covering it. Cara Delevingne's single 'Honey' is now available and i featured on Cara's album 'Distant Horizon'.

NATALIA KILLS ON TRL. TALKS “COVEN de COUTURE”, “EYES SHUT”, “WHIRLWIND”, TOUR, AND HAS EMOTIONAL MOMENT.
669 words
Host: With us today is a titan in music, after achieving mild success with her debut release “Ko-Motion”, Natalia Kills is back and she has been back with a whole new lot of energy and fire releasing her second studio album which was quickly certified gold in a week. Natalia has sold over 1 Million Albums and Singles combined and is currently the 4th biggest act in CAL. Welcome Natalia Kills
Natalia: Thank you so much, that was a wonderful reception
Host: And all of it is true, how has this all been for you?
Natalia: I couldn’t even tell you…it’s been magic! I mean, it’s been plane to plane, interview to interview, contract to contract, city to city, it’s just been a whole lot of work. I mean, yesterday when I got the phone call from VDK telling me that “The Definition of Bad” had gone gold in its first week, I honestly thought he was joking…I couldn’t believe it. I remember I just couldn’t say anything for some time and then, just suddenly began to cry , it’s truly overwhelming I tell you.
Host: And we know that you will begin “The Definition of Bad World Tour” tomorrow. What can you tell us about the show and are you ready?
Natalia: I AM READY!! I am beyond ready. I mean, it’s been a year already since I was on the road and this new record is just such an amazing one and I cannot wait to show the fans what we’ve planned for them.
Host: You announced venue changes for your tour, what, this morning? And reports is that they are already sold out…this just in. All 6 dates are now officially sold out.
**Natalia puts hands on mouth then head then mouth then head again, she closes her eyes and then begins to just smile**
Natalia: I just – I just, I was the girl that used to live from door to door of cheap hotels begging for a place to stay, I was the girl that used to clean toilets just to get something to eat. **starts sobbing** I had nothing, I literally had nothing and now a stadium full of people is gonna be packed every night just to see that girl.
**Natalia looks straight at camera**
Natalia: Anybody out there that has a vision, that has a dream, keep going for it, keep pushing for it…you can achieve whatever the **** you want in life, you just have to work really hard for it. Don’t let anybody kill your dreams and keep doing what you love to do.
**Natalia clean eyes and looks back at host while audience applauses**
Host: Really emotional. So what can fans expect on tour?
Natalia: Oh sorry **laughs** You can expect a very big show. Everything is going to be live, everything is going to be big, I mean, we’re going stadium to stadium, we had to make it as big as we could, come on!
Host: And let’s talk about the new songs you released “Eyes Shut”, and “Whirlwind’”.
Natalia: They’re both beautiful songs and complete opposites of each other. Eyes Shut is a really sad and vulnerable song about heartbreak and betrayals while Whirlwind is just a fun disco song.
Host: Ladies and gentlemen, Natalia Kills, do you want to introduce the next song?
Natalia: Gladly, this next song is by a bad bitch who is working her ass off and has the best fans in the world. You can catch her on her tour which starts tomorrow and remember that she loves you loads, ladies and gentlemen…”Coven de Couture” by me, Natalia Kills!
