With a new album out, Beyonce is everywhere these days. From the cover of magazines to PSAs, the triple threat is working hard to promote 4. But when it comes to her involvement with the Michael Forever: The Tribute Concert, it looks like the artist simply wanted to honor one of her idols.
August 18, 2011 Katy Perry's first major hit was the song "I Kissed a Girl" back in 2008, and when I heard it I thought, looks like another one hit wonder. Three years later, she's proven she's a multi-hit wonder, becoming the first woman to score five No. 1 songs from one CD on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Her "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)" set the precedent: It's the latest No. 1 from her platinum album "Teenage Dream." Only Michael Jackson had five No. 1 songs from one album before Perry, from "Bad." But Jackson spent a total of seven weeks at the top with his "Bad" songs; Perry has been at the top perch now for a cumulative 18 weeks!
Christina Aguilera and Cee Lo Green are just two of the names attached to the Michael Jackson tribute taking place in Wales on October 8.
How popular is Katy Perry right now? She’s already obliterated the sophomore jinx by selling five million copies (and counting) of her latest album, ‘Teenage Dream’…and she might tie a record in the process.
With four number one singles from ‘Teenage Dream’ — ‘Firework,’ ‘E.T.,’ ‘California Gurls,’ and the title track — Katy’s one hit away from reaching Michael Jackson’s record for most chart-toppers from an album — and her latest single, ‘Last Friday Night (TGIF),’ is poised to take her the rest of the way.
A tribute concert in honor of Michael Jackson will be held October 8. Jackson’s mother, Katherine, and siblings La Toya, Tito, Jackie and Marlon were all on hand to make the announcement Monday in Beverly Hills.
The show is scheduled for the 40th anniversary of Jackson’s first solo single, ‘Got to Be There.’
According to PopCrush, the iconic leather jacket that Michael Jackson wore in his famous ‘Thriller’ video sold for $1.8 million over the weekend at Julien’s Music Icons auction.
The jacket went to bidder Milton Verret, a Texas-based commodities trader, who says he will show the jacket “around the country in a tour that will help raise money for children’s charities.”
June 23, 2011 This weekend we remember the music of Michael Jackson on the 2nd anniversary of his passing. The King of Pop defined the music of the MTV generation. And the influence is just as strong with the YouTube gen
June 6, 2011 Michael Jackson's iconic red jacket from the "Thriller" video is going up for auction in Beverly Hills just for a spare $400,000.
March 21, 2011 Some previously unreleased demo tracks recorded by Queen frontman Freddie Mercury and Michael Jackson will soon be coming to your earbuds. The songs are "State of Shock" and "Victory."
"State of Shock" was released as a duet with Michael Jackson and Mick Jagger, but I think you'll really dig this version with Freddie Mercury
February 1, 2011 When I post on lite987.com I enjoy sharing things you can see and hear, like this new Internet sensation.
Who’s hot on the internet today? This guy. Jean Walker drives a cab in Minas Gerias, Brazil — but he was born to sing like Michael Jackson. And not like your Uncle Mike who does a bad moonwalk at the annual family picnic … this guy nails it.
Here he is killing “Billie Jean” and doing some fine beat-boxing while he’s at it.
January 26, 2011 Maybe these guys did this video as a project for music school but whatever the reason, they put an incredible twist on one of my Michael Jackson favorites. I wonder if Michael would've approved?
