It has been long since I updated myself with the spanking new music which is making hot waves in the industry right now. Lately, I'm pretty much hooked up with Rihanna's new album, Good Girl Gone Bad. Well, the album is most notable for the current hit, Umbrella, but there are a couple of songs to look out for too, such as Breakin Dishes, Don't Stop The Music and Shut Up and Drive (which happens to be the next single to be issued). Unlike her previous albums which were more reggae tone inspired, the sound from this album has been repackaged and reinvented in order to build a wider appeal, and hell, it did. Looks like Rihanna's going to make a big name for herself as she turns bad.

Her hit single, Umbrella.

Another mesmerizing summer song is Sean Kingston's Beautiful Girl. As it samples heavily on Stand by Me by ben E. King, this new song is undoubtedly sweet, spicy and sexy all at once. You might not have heard of SK, but with this song, his invisibility is now void.

Enjoy!

She might be busy touring, but concert is not just the only thing in her mind. With almost 3 million concert patrons to date, Shakira has truly established herself as a Diva in the making. Las de la Intuicion or Pure Intuition has been released for quite some time now. The up-tempo song is simply superb. Love the beats, love the lyrics.

Is purple the "It" color now?

OMFG! Rainie Yang, the singer-host-actress who is well popular all over the Asian countries has officially challenged Jake Gyllenhaal to the brokeback mountains in the latest lesbian film she participated in, called <刺青>. Wow, she's really stepping up the game and trying to nick the the top female entertainer in Taiwan. The movie seems to be quite explicit in a way that she did things that requires parental guidance as reported in this article. To date, the movie has done well in Taiwan with a box-office of $20million in the province. Bravo!

Have a look at the "french" scene from the movie!

Here's one short update on the new look of Vikki Zhao. The smokey eyes and dark sultry look really works on her. Don't y'all think so? The cute, innocent look has long been forgotten, and became history. On the other hand, Karena Lau did not execute it in the same way. She brought it to the extreme and made it, evil looking, which, looks a bit, fashionably u.g.l.y. Right?

Yet another no.1 video to watch out for! I have mentioned about this hot video before, and here it is, a single post devoted for it. Beautiful Liar is the latest offering, marking the first collaboration and team up between two goddess of the music industry, Beyonce and Shakira, two of my favorite stars up till this very second. The like the song itself, though doesn't crave for it, but for the video, it's totally awesome! They just looked so alike in the video! Check it out!

Basically, at the beginning of the video, both faces of Shakira and Beyonce are masked behind smoke. As the video progresses they are featured against several different backgrounds, including: a sunrise (Beyonce) and sunset (Shakira); sheets blown in the wind; bamboo covered in yellow orchids; a room with blue neon lighting and Arabic writing on the walls; and finally a background of stormy weather. Slow dance moves and belly dancing are featured heavily throughout the video, with a breakdown containing Arabic-style dance moves after the bridge. Spectacular moments when both of them wear matching hairstyles and black dresses for the entirety of video. [source]
