Mariah Carey debuts Resident Evil 6 teaser trailer
Moments after her Google+ Hangout show, Mariah Carey tweeted about Resident Evil 6's trailer which will be released soon, and she cannot wait for the fans to watch the movie. Minutes after that, a link to a YouTube video was tweeted by both Mariah Carey and Paul W.S.Anderson simultaneously.
The 1 and a half minute trailer begins with a scene located in a military site. An auto-tuned version of "Libidinous Dream" is playing in the background as Mariah appears in the scene shouting "They are coming, are you all ready for the slaughter ?!?!". The scene switches to them being in a helicopter going to a place full of the undead. It also features her and a few others fighting and killing zombies with great precision. She also said "Die bi#$%#es !!!" as the scene fades out.
The teaser trailer had gotten huge positive reception from the media and general public alike and it is mainly because of Mariah's fighting and blood splatter on her. "I never knew she could act like that. That is definitely a side of her I have never seen before. I am planning to see the movie right now.", said Yoshiaki Hirabayashi who produce the "Resident Evil 6" game.

Good going Epic!
You got this VDK! I wish you were releasing the Natalia Kills this week, check with iHype but your earlier stuff this week should count for it on the charts too and I would think you'd have a monster debut.

AGUILERA | MAXIM SPREAD
Our satin-queen, Christina Aguilera, EXPOSES us her most valuable and cherished personal secrets as she embarks on the treacherous road of a questionable industry once again. This blue-eyed Latina beauty has been through it all and is still thriving like the Fighter she always was. Be sure to stay tuned, Xtina will dish on many exhilarating stories never told.
The "Nighthawks" songstress shall tell us what she really thinks of pregnancy and why her husband [Matthew Rutler] is such a gentlemen. If you'd like to know about Aguilera's tips on attaining the perfect voice, then read on. There's a lot more to come in this special bumper-pack issue of Maxim 2014 - July edition. Let us delve into Aguilera's spread as she graces our cover for the third time in her incredibly expansive career built around such an influential and reputable legacy of significant impact.
MX: How are you, Christina?
CA: I am feeling very content and satisfied within myself, at the moment. Expecting such a busy year ahead of me had me quite anxious, truth be told, 2014 has (so far) been a blessed four months of getting back into what makes my insides smile: the ability to have my voice heard. Not to mention, I've just birthed a wondrous little girl just a few weeks ago. Oli [Olivia Aguilera-Rutler] is doing really well and, as a mother, I'm ready to guide her through this demonic-esque world. I hope to give her and my song of 6 years [Max Liron Bratman] all that I have to offer as their mother and strive to be their very own guardian angel. Children are the light of our lives, and my children shine with absolute light in mine. I'm taking it easy as of now, however, the support of my beloved newly-wed husband [Matthew Rutler] and my loving fans have given me the strength to audaciously go on.
MX: Tell us a bit about your lead single.
CA: My lead single, "Nighthawks", really speaks on a unique sense of demonic possession. It truly delves into a point in everybody's lives where you are feeling a little depressed but then afterwards have time to reflect on some other "stuff" you've previously neglected, which makes that one moment of self-elevation quite bittersweet and melancholy. The entire experience is pretty sensational and weird, however, it's extremely well-expressed on the track itself. I personally cite "Nighthawks" as one of my greatest musical feats due to how rustic and organic the song sonically sounds.
MX: What shall we expect from "Pandora's Box"?
CA: Well, this will be my upcoming 8th studio album - "Pandora's Box" - so I really wanted to branch out with as much sincerity as possible this era. You will definitely expect much experimentation and deeper themes in this LP. It is coming soon soon! I'm incredibly excited about my latest musical project. And, oh yes, everything that happens throughout my life always echoes my one creative muse of expression, which is music and whatnot. There isn't a track on "Pandora's Box" where I don't space myself out for a brief moment and think about true events that have occurred in my life with, in which, had a huge impact on what I do and how I carry myself. As of yet, I'm not gonna reveal too much but yeah it'll inevitably mark a special moment in my career methinks.
MX: Moving on from personal matters, what do you like to do in your spare time?
CA: Hmm. Such a simple question yet so many answers. First of all, having a good book at arm's reach is always something to note down. I've lately been interested in dystopia and science-fiction, they're an extremely wondrous form of escapism. Just pure relaxation as I rarely ever have time to myself, it's always nice to give yourself a little treat and pampering once in a while. Music, without a doubt. The ultimate source of creative energy.
MX: How do you define "sexy"?
CA: I'm such a down-to-earth girl, I'm comfortable in just a jersey and boy's underwear. Trying too hard to be sexy is the worst thing you can do. Sexiness should be effortless.
MX: Is sexiness something that can't be taught?
CA: God, that's a loaded question! Let me put it this way: On The Voice we start off blind. The coaches can't see anybody, but there's always a feeling you get from somebody's voice. So, I think when you have it innately, it's bound to show up. Society has so many different opinions on what's sexy, provocative, and trashy versus classy. I've definitely run the gamut of exploring and getting so many opinions out of people.

NATALIA KILLS AT 2014 JEREMY SCOTT FASHION SHOW
Natalia Kills was spotted at the Jeremy Scott Fashion show where she posed with models and took time to perform her single "War, Lies, Love, Money" on the runway.
The performance was a new sound to the music as they changed some guitar riffs and tones in the music giving it a more sheek and elegant sound.
The Performance Was A Very Stellar One.

"War, Lies, Love, Money" played during new TV Show "Young and Hungry".
The ABC Family comedy which kicked off last week played a very shocking song today during it's second episode. "War, Lies, Love, Money" was played. This has raised eyebrows because the episode was shot sometime before the song was released. Sources say that Natalia and her team gave them the song prior to it's release because she is friends with executive director Ashley Tisdale.

Revisiting "Stripped": How Christina Aguilera Challenged Notions of Feminism and Sexuality, and Spoke for the Youth of America
There is no doubt that Christina Aguilera has paved the way for many female artists in the music industry and also during everyday life. She's shamelessly brought to life some of the most ancient issues in society through use of her own catalyst: her voice. Especially with her "Stripped" era, Aguilera's been a figure of self-empowerment - not just for women - but for everyone. This robust yet vulnerable image of self-worth led to Christina being acclaimed as an LGBT icon ever since the release of her second single off of "Stripped" in 2002 - which was the infamous "Beautiful". It [Stripped] shed to light the double standards of stereotypical gender roles and even the ultimate hypocrisy of women bringing fellow women down when they should be building each other up. The album itself was met with generally mixed views by biased critics. Nevertheless, "Stripped" still remains to this day a masterpiece of what pop culture has dealt within society. The fact that it's still thriving with so many odds against the record and Christina herself just goes to show how much of a significant being it was and still is.
A stripped back "dirrty" image contrasted Christina's squeaky-clean target market of her "Genie In A Bottle" days. You must not forget that Christina was part of the Mickey Mouse Club on Disney with her fellow Mousketeers: Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, and Ryan Gosling. Her debut single wasn't even "Genie In A Bottle". In actual fact, it was "Reflection" off of the Disney feature film Mulan in 1998. That was ultimately the song that yielded her such a record contract deal with RCA records.
Truth be told, Aguilera even claimed for a while that she was extremely embarrassed of how she first debuted and attained success, however, Xtina (as she was affectionately known during her Stripped days) has now embraced what used to be how the general public viewed her as being since if she hadn't released "Reflection" or "Genie In A Bottle" or "What A Girl Wants" or her impactful Spanish album "Mi Reflejo" etc etc etc then I probably wouldn't be writing this article as of now and "Mi Reflejo" did open up Christina to an entire Latin American audience.
Aguilera came from a home that was near-on war, and she was caught amidst the battleground. Her father - Fausto Aguilera - physically and emotionally abused his family, with Christina being at such a young age, it only forced her to fight all her life. In Christina's eyes, the pain still lives on but the motivation and drive is still there. She is such a strong woman for twisting domestic abuse on it's head, a role model for all those who have lost hope - everyone.

Do you guys thinks its better to pace your releases like real life artists or go somewhat fast in this game?

I've wondered if part of the formula depends on how many you post per day. It would make sense. I mean if an artist only did promo on Tuesday when an album released then, nothing else the hype would be dead by Friday in real life.
