VIDEO PREMIERE: Kelly Rowland ft. David Guetta 'Commander' Video Released..

VIDEO PREMIERE: Kelly Rowland ft. David Guetta 'Commander' Video Released..







A great video for Ms Kelly, even though it is almost a month late and has already been seen on various music channels over here in the UK for the past week. And while we feel that Fatima Robinson did a great job on the choreography, we would have liked to see the two Kellys doing different dances - kinda like in Lose My Breath (one of our fave DC3 vids).

But, overall, a very good video.

Now awaiting the ones for Rose Coloured Glasses and Grown Ass Woman.

2010 BRITS: Cheryl Cole's Fight For This Love Performance...

2010 BRITS: Cheryl Cole's Fight For This Love Performance...




We know what you guys are thinking.

How dare C.C. try to recreate the MJ/DC3 'toaster' trick? That was our first thought. And, can we just say, FAIL.

FAIL.

FAIL.

In no way did she manage to make it work, and those mirrored aviators just looked TTH. Unless of course they were to hide the pain of yet another unwarranted betrayal courtesy of Ashley Cole, in which case, sweetie, feel free to keep them on.

Only she didn't.

She then attempted to break it down with 15 million dancers, something only the best should attempt - the Queen B, Shakira or Lady Gaga, come to mind as successful recent examples.

And, just when you thought it couldn't get any worse, the miming accusations started flooding in, though, to be fair, according to our sources, she wasn't.

Still, from start to finish, it was an epic fail. And we say that with love.

The only saving grace? The fact that she cares about her performances, and tries her best. What we cannot stand are artists who don't, but we won't name names (though you know who we're talking about).

On To The Next One...

LISTS: Our Favourite Award Show Performances Of The Noughties

LISTS: Our Favourite Award Show Performances Of The Noughties






Yes, bunnies. We're doing a list of our favourite Award Show Performances Of The Noughties, cause there have simply been too many sick ones to just ignore; VMA ones, EMA ones, Grammy ones (shout out Queen B and Prince)...

We must acknowledge, and, below, we do...

2000

- Britney's Oops I Did It Again Striptease Performance - you know this ish is gon go down in history. It was EPIC and you know it.

2001

- Britney's Slave 4 U VMA Performance - the snake, the cage, the barefoot gyrating and sick choreography. It's too much, dahlin, too much (said like Edna in The Incredibles. Bish is fierce).

- Janet's All 4 U Performance At Her MTV Icons - showing those bitches exactly why she's an icon. It's Janet, Miss Jackson if you're nasty...

- J To Tha L.O. Play EMA Performance - ignore the craazy choreography; for coming down in that plane alone, this ish must be recognised.

2002

- Shakira's Whenever Wherever VMA Performance - ah, Shakira. What's there not to love?

2003

- Queen B's First Solo VMA Performance Of #1 Smash Crazy In Love/ Baby Boy - if only for the fact that this cemented the launch of one of the biggest careers of the decade, this must be mentioned.

- Christina A/ Britney/ Madonna/ Missy Elliott In That Performance At The VMAs - cause you know that kiss was all over the headlines the next morning, along with the snapshot of JT's reaction. Fuckin' Priceless.

2005

- Usher's Confessions VMA Performance - the smashed glass, a foolish attempt to ask Chilli back in front of an audience of hundreds of millions... who can forget it?

- DC3's Last Performance - A Medley - At The WMAs - and a standing ovation that lasted minutes, well deserved. One of the best performances we've ever seen. We were standing long before the end. The reason why they're the greatest girl group of all time. In- fucking-credible.

2006

- Mariah's We Belong Together Performance At The Grammys - along with FLy Like A Bird. (again) it's too much, dahlin, too much...

- Queen B's Two Performances - Irreplaceable And Deja Vu - At The WMAs - the first was pure Sasha Fierce looking back, the second pure B, and both sum up all the reasons we love her so much.

2007

- Chris Brown's Kiss Kiss VMA Performance - we loved. Loved. LOVED.

- AK's No One VMA Performance - brilliance. Pure brilliance.

2008

- Coldplay's Vida La Vida VMA Performance - we loved this song, the confetti, the whole thing.

- Pink's So What VMA Performance - the Celine coat, the small explosions, the strut. You know bish was working it like the rent was due tomorrow.

2009

- Queen B's Single Ladies VMA Performance - as if we needed a reminder of the most iconic video of the decade, or the reason why she is the Queen. All you other bitches (with the exception of very few) fall back. You know who you are.

- Gagita's First VMA Performance : Paparazzi - loved it or hated it, you know it cemented her position as the hottest new artist of the year.

- Jay Z's Empire State Of Mind AMAs Performance - we'd have put up the VMAs one, just for his kick-arse entrance alone, but Lil Mama oh-so-memorably ruined it. And we loved this just as much, so here it is...

Now, for next year's Grammys, which you know is gon be craazy. Queen B, Gagita, Taylor Swift, BEP... (all together now) it's too much, dahling, too much...

LYM (said like Mariah)...

LISTS: First 15 Of Our List Of The Most Memorable Moments Of The Noughties

LISTS: First 15 Of Our List Of The Most Memorable Moments Of The Noughties




Oh, the Noughties. Seems like just yesterday we were on the edge of our seats waiting for the Millennium Bug to strike without mercy, and now here we are ten years later and Bug free.


In order to do justice to the revolutionary decade we've just had, we're going to post up its' most memorable moments, be they tragic, shocking, sickening, surprising or all of the above.


More to be added every day, not in any specific order, you know how this works by now...


1) The Balloon Boy Hoax - honestly, how stupid did they think we were?


2) The Death Of The King Of Pop, MJ, Greatest Entertainer Of All Time (1958-2009) - there are no words


3) Spice Girls Reunion - which we still can't believe we didn't get tickets for. KMT.


4) The First Official Wardrobe Malfunction : Janet & JT At The Superbowl - oh, how we laughed. Car crash television at its finest...


5) Heidi's Shambolic Performance At Miss Universe 2009 - again no words, and our first post (*wipe away tears*). Here's to being Speidi free next decade...


6) The Rhi and Chris Breezy Travesty - the look on our faces when we found out what he did.... shocked and disgusted doesn't even cover it. We couldn't play a CB record for months afterwards...


7) Shock Wedding Of The Decade: MC And Nick Cannon - still, nothing but love for those two. Nothing but love.


8) Our Princess Of Pop Shaving Her Head - and yet, just one and half years later, she's back showing those biatches how it's done. It's Britney, bitch...


9) Britney's 55 Hour Marriage - we woke up to this news. Dear Lord...


10) That Britney And Madonna Kiss - The POP shocking the world and breaking those boundaries once again. Looking back, what was all the fuss about? Anyway, it was all worth it just to see that look on JT's face. Priceless.


11) The Rise Of X-Tina - how shocked were we all on seeing the Diirty vid? And the subsequent nude Maxim pics, girl-on-girl kisses (don't forget, she kissed Madge, too) and falling out of clubs in little more than her underwear... Sigh, we miss you, X-Tina. Oh, well. We have Rhi for all that, now.


12) The Election Of The US' First Black President - Barack Obama - and the subsequent rise of new fashion icon, Michelle Obama. - Iconic, historic and Fab.U.Lous.


13) Cheryl Cole's Solo Career - we love you, C.C., but, really? No, we say. Just, no.


14) Jon & Edward - no words are necessary. As presenters, yes; singers, Hell. NO.


15) The Break Up Of The Greatest And Most Successful Girl Group Of All Time, DC3 - not that we didn't all know it was coming, but still. Say My Name, Say My Name... Come on, girls, at least one reunion? At the O2, of course...
