			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Looking at her music videos and some clips from her concerts, you’d say that pop singer <strong>Lady Gaga</strong> is outgoing, fun and certainly entertaining. Although, you may not know that she considers herself to be a shy person. </p>
<p>In a recent interview Gaga explained that she doesn’t meet too many people in the industry, “I don’t really meet that many other artists because I’m actually kinda shy. I might not be shy with people that I know but with people that I don’t know I am very shy.”</p>
<p>She adds, “I generally really keep to myself and I am focused on my music. But when I do meet people that I have lots in common with it goes really well.&#160; I always feel shy in the Hollywood scene. I feel a bit like I did in high school, like I don’t really fit in.”</p>
<p><a href="http://crushable.com/files/2010/02/100131A1_GAGA_BGR_14.jpg"><img title="100131A1_GAGA_B-GR_14" style="border-right: 0px;border-top: 0px;float: none;margin-left: auto;border-left: 0px;margin-right: auto;border-bottom: 0px" height="390" alt="100131A1_GAGA_B-GR_14" src="http://crushable.com/files/2010/02/100131A1_GAGA_BGR_14_thumb.jpg" width="554" border="0" /></a> </p>
<p>Aw, poor Gaga! Well, the good thing is that she outshines a lot of people in the biz and has one the hearts of millions of people. So really, she fits in quite well!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It seems like <strong>Ke$ha</strong>’s second single, “<strong>Blah Blah  Blah</strong>” has actually gained a lot of popularity. Guess she isn’t  <em>quite</em> a one-hit-wonder? Anyways, the song features the voice talents of  <strong>3OH!3</strong> ands is off of her debut album,  <em><strong>Animal</strong></em>.</p>
<p>Ke$ha explained how the song was written, &#8220;The song came about when the  people that wrote it &#8211; me, Benny Blanco, Neon Hitch and [3OH!3's] Sean Foreman &#8211;  all got in a room, and they were talking about how chicks talk too much.&#8221;</p>
<p>She explains, &#8220;And me and Neon were like, &#8216;No, no, no, guys talk too much,&#8217;  So, we had this war of who were more obnoxious, chicks or dudes. And the song  kind of came around from that conversation. I think I make a pretty fair point  both in this video and in the song, that dudes are way more annoying.&#8221;</p>
<p>Take a look at the preview clip for the new music video, below:</p>
<div class="vidembedwrap"><embed src="http://media.mtvnservices.com/mgid:uma:video:mtv.com:482120" width="512" height="319" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" flashVars="configParams=vid%3Di482120%26uri%3Dmgid%3Auma%3Avideo%3Amtv.com%3A482120%26startUri={startUri}" allowFullScreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" base="."></embed><div style="margin:0;text-align:center;width:500px;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;font-size:12px;"><a href="http://www.mtv.com/ontv/" style="color:#439CD8;" target="_blank">MTV Shows</a></div></div>
<p>You can also listen to “Blah Blah Blah” in full below. What do you guys think of it? I’m not a huge fan of Ke$ha, but I’d prefer this song over “Tik Tok.”</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Songstress <strong>Nelly Furtado</strong> has certainly made a name for herself in the music industry, pumping out many hits. But now it seems like Nelly will be putting her musical talents towards the silver screen. She will in fact be <a href="http://jam.canoe.ca/Music/2010/02/08/12787751-wenn-story.html">starring</a> in a musical!</p>
<p>She was given a special part in the musical, directed by <strong>Michael McGowan</strong>, as a woman obsessed with hockey. Kind of typecasting since Nelly was born in raised in Canada. </p>
<p>McGowan has some words to say about Nelly, &quot;Nelly is an incredible entertainer and, after speaking with her, I realized that she fully relished embracing her inner hockey fanatic.&quot;</p>
<p><a href="http://crushable.com/files/2010/02/91007W1_FURTADO_BGR_01.jpg"><img title="91007W1_FURTADO_B-GR_01" style="border-right: 0px;border-top: 0px;float: none;margin-left: auto;border-left: 0px;margin-right: auto;border-bottom: 0px" height="338" alt="91007W1_FURTADO_B-GR_01" src="http://crushable.com/files/2010/02/91007W1_FURTADO_BGR_01_thumb.jpg" width="554" border="0" /></a>&#160;</p>
<p>Olivia Newton-John will also star in the film. Sometime this month, they will begin filming in Toronto, Canada. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A sneak peek video for the upcoming movie <strong><em>Burlesque</em> </strong>has been released, featuring the talents of many stars. This includes <a href="http://aguilerabuff.com"><strong>Christina Aguilera</strong></a> (who is making her film debut), <strong>Cher</strong>, <strong>Kristen Bell</strong>, and <strong>Julianne Hough</strong>, who is also making her silver screen debut. <strong>Cam Gigandet</strong>, <strong>Stanley Tucci</strong> and<strong> Eric Dane</strong> also star in the film.</p>
<p>The clip shows Aguilera in all her glory: dancing and singing, playing the part of Ali, a small town girl who moves to Los Angeles to pursue her dreams of being in the spotlight. There, she is hired by Tess (Cher) to work as a cocktail waitress at a Burlesque club. Slowly, she moves her way up and wows the crowd.</p>
<p>The film has a release date of November 24th, 2010. Exciting! Can&#8217;t wait to see the film in full!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The <em><strong>Heroes</strong></em> actress, <a href="http://www.haydenrocks.com/"><strong>Hayden Panettiere</strong></a> says that she is looking forward to releasing her very own debut album, which she’s worked hard to ensure is near-perfect. All this hard work despite the fact that her single <a href="http://crushable.com/files/2010/02/admphotos464780HaydenPanettiere.jpg"><img title="admphotos464780-Hayden-Panettiere" style="border-right: 0px;border-top: 0px;margin-left: 0px;border-left: 0px;margin-right: 0px;border-bottom: 0px" height="244" alt="admphotos464780-Hayden-Panettiere" src="http://crushable.com/files/2010/02/admphotos464780HaydenPanettiere_thumb.jpg" width="187" align="right" border="0" /></a> “<strong>Wake Up Call</strong>” (listen below) wasn’t even charted.</p>
<p>Hayden says of singing, &quot;I&#8217;d like to focus on music. I&#8217;ve been singing for almost as long as I&#8217;ve been acting and I love it. It&#8217;s just a different way of expressing myself and getting to be me, not having to play anyone else.&quot; </p>
<p>She says that it’s hard to find the time to work on the album, while working as an actress, &quot;I&#8217;ve been working on my album for about three years. It&#8217;s all about finding the time, though, which is crazy. And it&#8217;s hard to get people to accept me as a singer because they see me as an actor.&quot; </p>
<p>The album, which is currently without a title, was supposed to be released in 2008, then was pushed back to 2009 and then put off indefinitely. </p>
<p>Would you buy an album from Hayden Panettiere? Watch the music video for “Wake Up Call” below to help you make up your mind.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Former <em><strong><a href="http://idolstalker.com">American Idol</a></strong></em> contestant, <strong>Adam Lambert</strong> is openly gay and is pretty proud of it, though he is a little bit curious about what it’s like on the other side of things.<a href="http://crushable.com/files/2010/02/100131A1_LAMBERT_A_BGR_02.jpg"><img title="100131A1_LAMBERT_A_B-GR_02" style="border-right: 0px;border-top: 0px;margin-left: 0px;border-left: 0px;margin-right: 0px;border-bottom: 0px" height="332" alt="100131A1_LAMBERT_A_B-GR_02" src="http://crushable.com/files/2010/02/100131A1_LAMBERT_A_BGR_02_thumb.jpg" width="254" align="right" border="0" /></a> </p>
<p>In a <a href="http://www.showbizspy.com/article/199201/adam-lambert-wants-to-experiment-with-his-sexuality.html">recent interview</a>, in which he was asked about his relationship to women, he revealed, “I like making out with girls from time to time. I have this curiosity at the back of my mind. I’ve never had sex with a woman and I’m a little bit curious about it.”</p>
<p>In a <a href="http://www.digitalspy.com/showbiz/news/a201467/adam-lambert-slams-gay-kiss-hypocrisy.html">different interview</a> with the <em>LA Times</em>, he spoke about his controversial performance at the <em>American Music Awards</em>, where he kissed a man on stage. He explains, &quot;They pulled me off <em>Good Morning America</em> [on ABC] and two days later I was on a different early morning show on a different network.”</p>
<p>He continued, &quot;They showed a clip of Madonna and Britney Spears kissing and right afterwards a clip of me kissing a guy &#8211; and they blurred it out. It was hypocritical and ridiculous.&quot;</p>
<p>Honestly, it is very hypocritical. But, to be fair, Glambert’s performance was quite edgy, with simulation of oral sex. A little bit too risqué. </p>
<p>That possibly sent people over the edge, though we have seen some pretty nasty stuff from women too. It’s an interesting situation!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Unfortunately, the <strong>Black Eyed Peas</strong> are being faced with yet another plagiarism lawsuit for their hit single “<strong>Boom Boom Pow</strong>.” Another artist by the name of <strong>Phoenix Phenom</strong>, says they stole from her song “<strong>Boom Dynamite</strong>.”</p>
<p>Phenom and associate Manfred Mohr are both suing. Apparently, they sent in the song to Interscope records, which is the same label that BEP are under, and after that, the song was copied. </p>
<p>An attorney for them said, &quot;My clients submitted their copyrighted song &#8216;Boom Dynamite&#8217; to Interscope Records after Interscope had shown interest in some of their music, and the Black Eyed Peas later copied the song when they wrote &#8216;Boom Boom Pow&#8217;.&quot; </p>
<p>He added,&#160; &quot;A simple listening of the two songs will tell you that the songs are substantially similar, and that the hooks of the two songs are virtually identical in rhythm and lyrics.&quot;</p>
<p>So, do you guys think they sound alike? Listen to them both below. Sounds like a certain musical group has some explaining to do…</p>
<p>Pheonix Phenom “Boom Dynamite”:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It has been revealed recently that <strong>Simon Cowell </strong>would be bringing his hit show in the UK,<strong> <em>The X Factor</em></strong> to the United States. There have been a bunch of rumors going around that he plans to bring former <em>American Idol</em> judge, <strong>Paula Abdul</strong> to the <em>X Factor</em> judging panel.</p>
<p>Among other interesting rumors is that he’s hoping to convince pop star Lady Gaga to become a judge on the talent show.</p>
<p><a href="http://crushable.com/files/2010/01/91001M4_GAGA_BGR_02.jpg"><img style="border-right: 0px;border-top: 0px;float: none;margin-left: auto;border-left: 0px;margin-right: auto;border-bottom: 0px" height="550" alt="91001M4_GAGA_B-GR_02" src="http://crushable.com/files/2010/01/91001M4_GAGA_BGR_02_thumb.jpg" width="544" border="0" /></a> </p>
<p>An <a href="http://entertainment.stv.tv/showbiz/153636-cowell-targets-lady-gaga-for-us-x-factor-role/">insider told</a> <em>The Sun</em>, “Simon thinks Lady GaGa is great and really likes her energy. Conversations have been happening between Cowell’s US team and her people about what kind of role she could have on the show.” </p>
<p>Interesting! We’ll just have to wait and see what happens. If Gaga did sign on, I’m sure the show would get some pretty high ratings.</p>
