Musical - Aretha Franklin


A musical about Aretha Franklin autobiography is scheduled to launch in Detroit sometime during March 2008. The queen of soul will be passing auditions herself in suburban Detroit from May 1st through May 3rd.

There will be singing and non singing parts, therefore for anyone who feels like acting is more their cup of tea they can still try out!

She also received a film offer for the very same musical, and Jennifer Hudson might be considered to play her in the film.

I hope that I will personally see this musical in the future, and hey I would love to also see a movie or musical about Chaka Khan!

Beyonce - Deluxe Edition of B'Day

Beyonce's deluxe edition of B'day will definitely not include "I'm Kissing You", a song originally recorded by Des'ree.

"Unfortunately, there were some misunderstandings regarding whether Des'ree's song '(I'm) Kissing You' was cleared for release in the United States," said Music World Entertainment, which represents Beyonce. (source)

Luckily, the international editition of the album won't be affected because it didn't include the song to start with.

No one on Beyonce's side has yet commented on the incident.

I personally, wish her the best of luck!

American Idol Gives Back


In an effort to donate as much money as possible for relief programs in America and Africa, American Idol managed to raise an impressive
$60 million.

The two hour special included performers such as Earth Wind & Fire, Kelly Clarkson and Josh Groban. In addition, Ellen DeGeneres co-hosted with Ryan Seacrest on Wednesday and donated $100,000. Other celebreties such as Ben Stiller and Madonna encouraged viewers to make a donation.


There's still time to make a contribution, so make sure to visit
American Idol's aid form if you'd like to make a difference.

It was nice to see how American Idol is trying to make a difference. What's your opinion on this subject?

George Michael 25Live


November 1st, 2006 I flew back to my home country (the Netherlands) and finally saw George Michael live!

I must say that it was one of the most exciting moments of my life. He is a true performer, and it is good to see him out there again after being absent for so long. I never thought he'd start touring again, but there I was standing in Ahoy's (Rotterdam) concert hall. I sang my heart out with him and so did everyone else!

I especially liked his performance of "My Mother Had A Brother", it was truly breathtaking! Unfortunately I was unable to take any pictures or film anything but you know me I won't leave you hanging without a nice clip from his concert, enjoy!

By the way, luckily for all his fans he has decided to extend his tour, check out all available dates on George Michael's site.

If you have any questions about his performance please feel free to contact me!





Chris Daughtry Rocks!


Chris Daughtry keeps on rocking since American Idol and has proven that he is a true artist!

His style and voice is very unique, I personally am usually not too much into rock, however he has completely managed to change my mind.

A unique artist such as himself doesn't come along often, so go see him live now and if you happen to have any pictures of his performances please send them to me!

Enjoy this amazing clip!

Beyonce

Here's an artist which I believe deserves a lot of respect, someone with true talent.

From the early age of seven, Beyonce was already a natural born star by winning over thirty local singing and dancing competitions.Later on, Beyonce, LaTavia Roberson along with Kelly Rowland and LeToya Luckett formed a quartet called "Girl's Tyme". The group made their first breakthrough at the famous tv show "Star Search". Unfortunately, they didn't win, however Beyonce's father truly believed in them and quit his day time job to become their manager. By 1996, the group was signed to Columbia Records.

Join Beyonce somewhere near you, order your tickets now!
