Ariana Grande throws surprise release party
Ariana Grande surprised 150 of her most dedicated fans by unexpectedly premiering her new single Nocturnal Kisses. The singer, now signed to Enceinte Records, had earlier hinted at a March release for the single, but stunned her fans as she released it two months earlier than expected. The release was masked as a fan club party, and all the fans and press present at the event walked home with a goodie-bag including the single.

SAADDE LIVE IN HIROSHIMA
Eric Saade performed another concert date of the Exposè World Tour tonight in Hiroshima to over forty eight thousand people. He added some new covers to the set and added an extra song from his previous albums to the setlist. The concert was sold out as Saade entertained his fans with a show full of amazing songs, vocals, and amazing covers. The stage was also extended and the show was entirely revamped
 STAGE
Setlist:
XXX
Make You Sweat
Back Of The Cab
Bad Girls
Midnight Love
Navigate
Sophistication
The stage remained in darkness, the audience seeing nothing but the dark lines of objects on the stage. An orchestra began to play as the stage began lighting, revealing statues of angels and fountas on the main sectiojn of the stage. A staircase became visible as lights started illuminating women sitting on them in a seductive manor one by one, on each side of the staircase. With five women in ball gowns seated on every side of the dual staircase, there was a dramatic pause before the top was revealed. The orchestra reached a crescendo before it showed Saade in a black tux with shades on. With a head mic instead of a hand one, he began singing as the production of Sophistication blared over the speakers. Saade sang the entire first live as the girls walked up the steps to pass behind Saade, touching on him when walking by before they had switched sides of the steps. The chorus hit and male dancers in suits as well came from the bottom of the stage as Saade and the dancers broke out in a choreographed number that involved a lot of footwork. The female dancers posed seductively on the staircase. The second verse hit but before it could the male dancers stood at the bottom center of the staircase. The production took a bit of a synth intro and Saade jumped from the top of the staircase into the circle of male dancers. With another strong synth, the stage was dimly lit as fans blew wind at Saade and hhis dancers. Saade and his dancers broke out into another dancebreak as Saade lipped to pre-recorded vocals. After the second verse, Eric with his dancers, repeated the chorus dance routine and thunder shook the venue when water began falling from the front of the stage in the form of rain. Saade in some way had grabbed a hand mic from a dancer as he walked out into the water, getting soaked and began singing the bridge completely live. He hit a big note in falsetto as he sang the final chorus in a slowed down orchestral version before he fell to his knees and the stage slowly faded into darkness, the crowd giving Saade a marvelous reception.

I Swear
The performance started off the stage in a very geometrical setting. Boxes of white walls filled the stage, the outlines of them illuminated by fluorescent white lights. They lit up as the instrumental of I Swear started. The first two boxes illuminated showed two silhouettes of females standing. The last box illuminated to show Saade standing with a microphone as he began singing the Taylor Swift co-written song. The performance was pretty simple, the song being stripped down to a more ballad feel that people say the original sounded more like.

How is Something Something so low when I gave it actual promo in comparison to the Charli singles 
Only a 20K difference between Something Something & Freedom when Something Something had tons more promo

Ariana Grande visits On-Air with Ryan Seacrest
Visiting Ryan Seacrest on Tuesday morning was none other than Ariana Grande, exclusively premiering her latest single Nocturnal Kisses on radio. She also talked about why she switched labels, what her upcoming album will sound like, and what her biggest dream as an artist is (to which she replied 'winning a grammy for Album of the Year'). The young singer also revealed that her celebrity crush is none other than heartthrob Eric Saade. We're guessing she's not alone!

I had a whole rant, but honestly Donatella, you should know I was a former co-host of CAL during season 2 so I don't appreciate your accusation that I am a duplicate account of e437.

I meant that because of my chart position
And Zune did one article. One. I included the link in my promo lists and I never hide it from you.

Yeah, I'm aware, and I think you're being immature about it. You've outlasted all our meltdowns last season, and it's not even like you're flopping. I mean, Megan did rather awful back in CaL2 (No shade, sis), and she made it through. You have a string of #2s, and you act like your song didn't even chart.
And I don't know why you're making a big deal about that? I never said you hid it? I never said anything about Zune's promo?
But since you guys keep bringing it up, it wasn't valid and didn't contribute to your charting position. If Zune had actually joined the game and had an active label and decided to promote for you, yeah, I guess it would count.

I KNOW.
I saw your whole rant. I read it.
Don't treat me like I'm a complete idiot. I joined back in season 2, as well, you know. I read the entire thread up until I joined, because I thought it would be neat if I looked back at the game's history. I saw all your posts. I saw the impact you had.
And lighten up. I was JOKING. I didn't actually accuse you of being Dan's duplicate. Jesus Christ.
No idea why you're starting a problem with this. It was a joke.

When I posted that reply I saw that you were just joking Donatella 
I deleted my original post because you were just joking. Sorry I know how messy this game can get sometimes 
I guess it was one of the things where I was okay but posting at the same time really threw this off
