Beyonce performs For Vevo
Vevo filmed 2 special Beyonce performances which were uploaded to her own channel and which were then promoted on Vevo's page. The performances were recorded especially for Vevo. In the first video, Beyonce is shown introducing herself: "Hello, I'm Beyonce I will be singing to you an acoustic performance of my Single 'On Hold' which can be purchased now along with my album which also features Jay-Z & Kanye West. The album is called 'Count The Kills'.
The camera then zoomed away from her face and showed us that Beyonce was sitting on a piano. The pianist started playing 'On Hold'. Beyonce started singing along to the melody, a romanticized version of 'On Hold'. She also changed a few lines and lyrics in some parts of the songs.
When the performance ended, Beyonce thanked the viewer. In the second video, Beyonce introduced herself again but instead of announcing 'On Hold' she performed 'Enraged'. This time, a violinist played along with the piano.
The videos contributed to the streaming points of both songs and will try to keep them in the Top 20 of the charts.

Beyonce and Kanye West Perform on Good Morning America & attack their label
Beyonce & Kanye West made an appearance on Good Morning America while performing to promote their last single 'Enraged' as well as the collaborative album 'Count the Kills'. After signing a few autographs and thanking the fans being here, they got up on stage while the host presented them. They then started answering a few questions. "We are having a few issues with the Variety Records management. They don't agree with everything we've done so far, they've been saying that we didn't put enough effort in the promotion. They let us do whatever we want musical wise and with the rest of the projects, but we need to follow a strict promotional program. They want us to work more and we are being lazy, we always are lazy anyways" said Beyonce when she was asked about why they disappeared off the scene for a few days. DivaYonce also said that she wasn't pleased with the amount of care The label was giving her yet they booked her a whole hotel for her and her team to rest in. Rumors say that Beyonce and her entourage composed of Kanye West and Jay-Z will be moved to another label by next week.
"Both sides are Unhappy with what's happening right now" said a source.
They then started the performance. Beyonce started doing a few impressive moves and the dancers started coming on stage. Kanye West started rapping his intro-verse. Fans liked the performance.

Sky Ferreira stops by KIIS FM
The international superstar, Sky Ferreira, stopped by the KIIS FM offices in Los Angeles today to promote her single, 'Teen Witch'. She spilled tons of new details on the music video for Teen Witch, the upcoming album, a tour, and her recently announced partnership with clothing store Forever 21!
Q: Thanks for joining us today! The listeners here absolutely love you; they keep requesting Teen Witch over and over! Speaking of Teen Witch, can you tell us more about the music video? We already know that it takes place at a house party, but we have been dying for more information!
A: Thank you for having me! The music video is one of my favorites that I have ever done if not my all time favorite. I have a lot of guest appearances in it from my good friends like the HAIM sisters, Grant Singer, Chloe Chaidez, and a ton of other people that you will find out when you see it!... it's an all-star cast though for sure. It will be released tomorrow as well, so watch out for it!
Q: We are so excited! So... a lot of artists are heading off on tours to promote their new material. When can we expect a tour from you? Will you be opening for any of them?
A: Actually, I am scheduled to be an opening act for Charli XCX on her Tokyo Lights tour for all of the dates that aren't in the United Kingdom! It's going to be so much fun; Charli and I have been friends for a while. I'm going to be performing five songs from my new album including Teen Witch of course and a full version of the song I performed on The Today Show yesterday which is called Loaded Gun. It will be so high energy, and I cannot wait for it to start!
Q: Are we ever going to be able to see a collaboration with you and Charli in the future?
A: Who knows? Haha! Okay, I won't lie. We actually are going to be collaborating on her upcoming album. I promise that you guys are all going to love the song.
Q: We know that you are obviously going to be releasing an album soon as well. Where would you rank Teen Witch among all of the other songs on it? Is it a good representation on what is to come?
A: I'd say it's in my 4th favorite song honestly. I wanted to save the better songs on it for future singles. It is a good representation of what my album is all about. Fun, energetic, and perfect for listening to in the summer. You guys will flip in a good way over what the other songs sound like though! I don't want to be cocky, but the lyrics are amazing, and so is the production.
Q: I can't wait! You were recently named the new face of Forever 21 and their 2014 Festival collection. Are you going to be doing anything more for that or was it just a commercial and photoshoot only thing?
A: I actually will be doing a cute intimate gig at a Forever 21 and doing a small gig for an event sponsored by them at The Saguaro in Palm Springs which is actually where we did the photoshoot. Other than that, I guess not. I will be wearing a lot of clothes from the collection as well if that would count as doing more.
Q: We have one last question before you take off to your next event. There are rumors going around that you will have a 1 hour documentary on E! detailing the making of Teen Witch and your new album. Can you confirm or deny it?
A: I'm not allowed to say anything, but fk it! Yes, I will be doing one, and it's also going to be showing this week!
Q: Thank you again for stopping by! Up next is none other than Sky Ferreira's hit new single, Teen Witch!

Mariah Carey on The Tonight Show
For the performance of "Libidinous Dream", Mariah wore a Boohoo Taylor Bodice Zip Front Disco Catsuit with a matching black high heel boots, and she had a 90s Mariah-inspired wavy hair style too. She did another 70s inspired performance with a modern twist this time compared to her last performance which she did in The Rachael Ray Show. Fog started to hover over the ground as the intro of "Libidinous Dream (DJ Clue Dark Remix)" kicks in. The stage had minimal lightings which only focused on Mariah herself. Throughout the whole performance, she did a "Peter Pan" inspired dance which is more classy compared to the original "Peter Pan" dance. As the second verse came in, the dancers came out and danced the "Peter Pan" inspired dance too as the fog starts to thicken. As the bridge kicks in, Mariah was seen almost falling down which made the audience go in shock, but Mariah managed to regain her composure and continue like nothing has happened. She received a standing ovation as the performance ended. After a short commercial, Mariah was shown wearing a dark violet dress and a pair of handmade Jimmy Choo's high heel shoes as she sat down for an interview with Jimmy Fallon.
__________________________________________________ ________________________
JF: Wow. What a performance from the impeccable Mariah Carey. You almost fell down. What was in your mind when that happened ??
*crowd cheering and clapping*
MC: *blushes* Well, that was embarrassing to be honest. I was like "OMG, I am going to mess up !!!!!", but I had to continue the performance since it is halfway through.
JF: Nice. Recently you were on the Rachael Ray Show and you showed your cooking skills to everyone. How did everyone reacted in the studio ??
MC: Just shocked dahhling, I mean it is a side that the public never seen before. It's funny to see their reactions to be honest. It was priceless because even Rachael herself was in shock with her mouth wide open *laughs*
JF: You said the second single is chosen and will be revealed this coming Sunday a few days ago. Are there any remixes done ??
MC: The remixes are finished !! I'm working with Dave Aude, Kurd Maverick and a few more and the remixes are fire. I seriously cannot wait for next week to come !!
JF: How's it like working with Miguel ??
MC: He's a nice and talented person dahhling. He can see my vision of a song and then recreate it in the studio. I'll definitely will want to work with him in the future.
JF: Well, do buy Mariah's latest single, "Libidinous Dream" and her album, "The Stygian Chevalier" on iTunes right now. All of the audience in the studio will be getting a copy of "The Stygian Chevalier" !!
__________________________________________________ ________________________

BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge: Marina & The Diamonds
Marina & The Diamonds' third visit to BBC Radio's Live Lounge was one that you wouldn't want to miss. First, in an interview, she announced not one but TWO releases coming later that day. Those being the documentary of her US tour for her last album, Heartcore, and her newest EP, The Money. After that, she sat down to sing her single, "Where The Diamonds Grow", as well as a cover of her peer Charli XCX's new song, Alone in the Dark. The interview was first up:
Today on BBC Radio, we have Marina & The Diamonds with us. How are you Marina?
I'm fantastic! I just got back from the US for promo yesterday and it's been great being home, although I do have to get on a plane back to New York when this interview is over.
You've definitely been very busy, and will be even more busy in the next few weeks. You recently announced on twitter you'll be touring with Britney Spears, how has it been getting prepared for that tour?
****ing awesome! I love Britney and this tour is definitely going to be amazing. I'm so happy I get to tour with her.
Rita Ora is also opening for Britney's tour, what is your opinion on her feud with Azealia?
I don't really know Azealia, and I haven't spent a lot of time with Rita, but I think it's stupid. They both seem really dramatic.
Will you be touring an album or the EP when you're touring with Britney?
Well, I want to do at least one of the songs from the EP. I have a 4-5 song set, so I'll probably do No No No and the rest songs from the album.
How soon is the album coming?
Not soon enough! I want it out now, I want everyone to hear the songs and just be blown away. I moved up my EP release date to today, and with that I moved up the album release date. It'll be soon, by the end of the month.
Can you tell us whose producing the album?
Well, Dr. Luke produced the EP, and a few of the songs on the album. Diplo is on the album a few times, so is Pharrel. Definitely a fresh sound for me.
Your Netflix music special has received great feedback, what was it like working with Netflix? Whats next?
They really understood my vision and gave me a lot of freedom. It was my idea to do one shot and it felt like I was actually giving all the viewers a concert. I'm happy I didn't **** up. Whats next is the documentary of my US tour I did for my last album. It's called Heartcore. It'll come out tonight and it features the making of Where The Diamonds and some of the writing sessions. After that is another documentary of the making of this album and some other stuff I'd rather keep a secret.
Anything else you'd like to say before we get started with the live lounge session?
Yes! I'd like to apologize for that ugly ass cover for The Money. We've made a new cover and it'll be made available when the EP is released this afternoon.
And with that Marina made her way into the Live Lounge studio. First Marina sang her single, "Where The Diamonds Grow". After that Marina sang Charli XCX's latest single, "Alone In The Dark", but in Marina's special way. The cover went viral and received great reception.

Sky Ferreira covers Vogue
The pop chanteuse, Sky Ferreira, has been chosen to be on the cover of the July 2014 edition of the illustrious, world renowned fashion and lifestyle magazine Vogue. Each copy will come with a sexy poster of Ms. Ferreira's photoshoot for the cover, and it will also feature an exclusive, juicy interview that her devoted fans would kill to have. In the shoot, she is seen wearing a one-of-a-kind Donatella Versace sundress with bright yellow Louis Vuitton pumps, a blue, brown, and purple colored flannel from the Forever 21's 'Summer Festival' collection which Ferreira herself is the face of, and a sparkling diamond Tiffany's necklace. She is also flaunting a plum lip color from her personal favorite, MAC Cosmetics, and a Cassie-esque hairdo. The shoot was taken in various locations around Los Angeles, California and New York City, New York.
"My favorite designers have to be Donatella Versace and Jeremy Scott probably," Ferreira said when asked about fashion, "Everything they make I want. I own a lot of things from them, actually. Together they fill up about, like, 50% of my closet. They have made a few custom things for me, and I know it's taboo in the industry to wear outfits more than once, but I have probably worn them about 5 times each, haha!"
"Teen Witch is one of my favorite songs on my new record, and I'm glad that the world is loving it too," Sky replied to a question about her love for her new single, Teen Witch, "I wouldn't say it is my favorite though. I have another song on there called 'Flowers' and it's really hippie-ish. I love it and it's definitely my favorite on the album. I can't wait for my fans to hear it."
Our interviewer inquired Ferreira about her love life, and she replied, "It's very complicated right now. I'm in kind of an on and off relationship, but it's been mostly off the past few months of my life. We're both talking to other people right now though, so I think it might be finished for good."
For more of the interview, buy July's edition of Vogue in stores now.

Hospitalisation of Christina Aguilera - THE AFTERMATH.
Xtina killer on the loose responsible for health scare.
As you all may have already known by now, Christina Aguilera was hospitalised into the emergency room (for both accidents and emergencies) of a Los Angeles-based clinic. There were many reports beforehand about how Aguilera was feeling a little under the weather which, of course, was later revealed to be more serious than we previously thought at first. Even a couple of Dior officials expressed their concern for 'Beautiful' singer Xtina since she was their main spokesperson and face of the high-end designer brand and ultimately had a lot of responsibilities and expectations to eventually live up to. However, with saying that, Aguilera's health is of course the highest of priorities at this moment in time so it goes without stating that we don't hold it against her as much as what caused this entire health scare situation to occur in the first place.
This 6-time Grammy Award-winning songstress was rushed to a sterilised medical acre by a group of paramedics. Aguilera had just given birth to daughter of a few weeks old, Olivia Aguilera-Rutler. So, in the event of a severe emergency, Christina was immediately taken to professionals in order to prevent any sort of further damage especially when it could've correlated with the actual pregnant and later birth of Olivia itself. Turns out, Christina vowed to take extra precautions for her children (Olivia and Max Liron Bratman) due to the fact that she had just given birth and didn't want to risk any "common flu" from infecting those beloved kids, even through her own means and terms. In actual fact, it has been alleged that the flu shot in which was prescribed and administered by Aguilera's personal doctor was spiked with a chemical imbalance of genetically formed mutations. There haven't been any official confirmations by Aguilera's team as of yet although legal action against this "Xtina killer" shall be addressed in due course.
In other news, Christina released the second single off of her 8th upcoming studio album - "Pandora's Box". It is indeed titled as "Spitfire" and features female rapping songstress Azealia Banks who has garnered quite a lot of attention over these past few months of 2014. "Spitfire" is a reggae track produced by world-renowned Hip Hop beatmaker DJ Premier. By the way, he was also the executive producer of Aguilera's Back To Basics Disc 1 in 2006. The intricate song is penned by Swedish musical mastermind Avicii and includes overseeing producer credits by Diplo. A special performance event is set to be planned so watch this space for that. Here at the HQ. follow us for more Xtina updates.
Aguilera's second single "Spitfire" f/ Azealia Banks is now available for purchase.
