Mariah Carey Hits Paris
With the ever-increasing influence of American popular culture on the rest of the world, it's no wonder there are so many celebrities jet-setting around the globe. And Mariah Carey landed in Paris, France this past weekend to spread some love and promote her new album.The "Always Be My Baby" singer did her usual hamming it up for the cameras outside the Four Seasons George V, wearing a sexy black dress, high heels, and a pink patent leather half-jacket.
Here in the States, Carey is on pace to rack up her 18th #1 song on the Billboard Hot 100 Singles Charts this week. "Touch My Body" was at #15 last week, and will most likely get bumped into the Top 10 when it is released for digital download tomorrow.
Madonna Compares Media's Treatment Of Britney Spears To Witchcraft
Though Madonna and Britney Spears don't seem to be on BFF terms like they used to be back in the day when they would tongue each other on national television, Madonna is still clearly on Brit's side. Even though she worked with Brit's ex, Justin Timberlake (and my eye doctor is 100% sure that they're hooking up) Madonna has finally ed on the media hype surrounding Britney. Last week she was widely quoted as saying, "Let's go save her!" about Britney. At the time I thought she might have been saying it sarcastically, since every celeb seems to feel the need to jump on the "Let's talk about how we're going to rescue Britney" bandwagon. But it's clear Madonna has genuine sympathy for Britney, even if the popwreck doesn't sport her Kabbalah string on her wrist anymore. Madonna is doing a lot of press for the upcoming release of her new album "Hard Candy." She's on the cover of the upcoming issue of Vanity Fair, and talks about the media's unfair treatment of Britney Spears in the story.
Slash Warns Amy Winehouse
Slash has warned Amy Winehouse not to destroy her career with drugs. The former Guns N' Roses guitarist, a reformed alcoholic and drug abuser, thinks Amy should stay away from illegal substances if she wants to make the most of her incredible talent.
He said: "Amy's cool, she's carrying the torch for rock 'n' roll. I think she's great, not so much because of her personal choices, but because she's a fantastic singer with a unique sound and style."
"She's on the verge of greatness, but it would be regrettable if her talent was overshadowed by her extra-curricular activities. She's at a crossroads - I hope she makes the right decision."
Although he is a huge fan of Amy, Slash isn't so complimentary about today's guitarists.
He added to Britain's Daily Star newspaper: "It's sad. There's no identifiable guitar player in rock 'n' roll any more."
