Drag Race Gossip - The Willam "Bye"

So what if this is nearly a week past, I'mma still give my two cents on the issue. Many people were beyond shocked when Willam "Bye'd" Ru on the main stage after being said she is safe. Honestly, I thought she was just being a bitch, which is what I love about her, but apparently I was wrong. On her site, she gave the details on what she says went down.

"Yea, I BYE’d RuPaul…but here’s what really went down on ep 4.2:

Right before I said BYE, The Princess was asked to lip-sync. RuPaul then told me I was safe and I asked him if i could lip-sync for The Princess because I was the team captain and wanted to take responsibility (I have no clue if The Princess would’ve let me but I wanted to offer). But Ru, without even making eye contact said “You’re going off script” and as soon as he got out the last word i was like ok peace in my head so i just threw out a “BYE” and walked off.

so yea. Bye."

 

I'm not sure what to think about this. On one hand, I can see this happening, but on the other hand, I can see this being damage control. I mean, not everyone likes bitches and when you are rude to Ru, it's easy to make a whole lot of enemies. 

What do you guys think? I'm sure most of you are just annoyed I'm talking about "that bitch" again. Well you know what? If you don't like the Willam show, you can get out. Or you can read some of my other posts. Please pick the second option.

Album Review - Night Wave

Oh. My. God. I love Hyper Crush. So much. Never before has a band managed to keep my attention so long. I have taken up stalking them recently, and tweeting them constantly. Did I mention I love them? This album is just what I needed in my life right now: Nonsensical techno-babble. God yes. Shall we get on with it before I make a bigger idiot of myself?

RuPaul's Drag Race - WTF! Wrestling's Trashiest Fighters

It's that time again. Drag Race is back again and starting to go out in full swing. I'm gonna go for a less formal and more spontaneous approach this week. It's WTF week, and no, it doesn't stand for what you think. It stands for Wrestling's Trashiest Fighters. Yup. Welcome to RPDR 4.

Madonna And The Superbowl Extravaganza

My main problem with the Super Bowl's half time shows is simply this: they always have crap acts. Every year I wait and wait for them to pick someone amazing, and it never happens. This year was different. Madonna was their choice this year. The queen of pop music. Also, I forgot that the Superbowl was this weekend. Luckily YouTube exists.

Note: I have no idea how long this video will be available on Youtube. Let me know if it gets taken down and I will look for a new version to post.


This is what pop music needs to be: Over the top and outrageous. Madonna is carried out on a throne, for Christ's sake. Her band members are dressed like Roman Centurions. There was a tightrope dancer, and space age cheerleaders. Like I said, the epitome of pop music.

The first song up is Vogue. This was my favorite song by Madonna. Ever. Not only is it a drag queen anthem, but it was also a big part of my life as a kid. And seeing Madonna perform this song on a stage so epic it puts Eurovision to shame, was a dream come true. Speaking of which, this lady looks good! I think this is her way of telling everybody the old saying "Age ain't nothing but a number" is indeed true. She pops, locks, and drops it just as good as anybody -- and she's good at Shufflin' too.

Why bring that up? Because the next song, Music, was mixed together with Party Rock Anthem and Sexy and I Know It by LMFAO -- and they were there. For a small segment the three even danced together! As expected, M.I.A. and Nicki Minaj (if you are confused as to which was which, their crotches are labeled) trot out on stage with those crazy cheerleaders I mentioned earlier for a portion of Madonna's newest single Give Me All Your Lovin'. This song was actually good. I'm glad that horrible Hard Candy era is a thing of the past.

For the final portion of the lengthy performance she is joined by Cee Lo Green and a chorus of what looks like at least one hundred people to help sing Like A Prayer. Cee Lo has some PIPES! After a dramatic climb to the top, she simply disappears in smoke.

And everyone is left breathless. Madonna is back, and this time she's not letting anybody get in her way. For her new song she's teamed up with two of pops biggest rising divas, and she's letting everyone know she is still the queen of it all. That being said, is any body else expecting a look-alike version of this performance by Lady Gaga next year?

Song of the Week - Drinks On Me

I'm sorry.

No seriously. I'm sorry. This song is really bad, but I just can't help myself. This is everything I strive to avoid in my life, but these two just draw me in every time and make me dance like their musical love slave. Ugh. I just... I can't even.

The song isn't the worst. Even these girls have had worse tracks, but catchy as it is, the song is just about loving getting wasted. That's it. BUT IT IS SO CATCHY! I'm really sorry, guys. I just had to. There were about four tracks this week that I wanted to pick, but this one won mainly because I can't beat my head against the wall enough to get it un-stuck.

Buy the track on iTunes. Or don't if you have good taste in music. I don't.

Video Review - Better Than I Know Myself

It's a tale of two Adams in Mr. Lambert's newest video. I know you guys are probably getting tired of me talking about this guy, but this video is so good. I can't let this one go un-reviewed. I just can't. Ugh. Let's just get on with it, shall we?

MYPHNH(BS) - Pob

This one is gonna be a short one, guys. There just isn't a lot of info out there on this guy yet, but when I get an email from a new artist who is not only talented but making some awesome music, how can I not make a post about them?

This cute Brit is a new singer trying to break through in the music biz. He only has two tracks out so far, but according to his Youtube channel, new music is on the way later this month. What he does have out so far is quite enjoyable. Let me introduce you to Pob.

"Shout It Out Loud" is a very upbeat and poppy track that fits right in with the current state of pop music. He has a nice voice and great production backing. His second song, "I'm The One" is a bit less up beat and a tad more dark, showing two vastly different directions he could go in.

Having so few songs out makes him hard to pin. I certainly want more, but only time will tell if he is going to be a break out star. Why feature him on this section if things seem risky? Because what he does have out so far is great and refreshing.

Now who do I need to threaten to get him to put up a bio on his site?

Check out my favorite of the two, "Shout It Out Loud" below.
