MTV has announced that JAY-Z and Lady Gaga will join the list of VMAs performers. Jay-Z, a “Best Male Video” and “Best Hip Hop” nominee for “D.O.A (Death of Auto-Tune),” will hit the stage to perform a song from his highly anticipated upcoming album The Blueprint III.
International sensation Lady Gaga, known for her over the top live performances and fashion forward will perform something from her multi-platinum debut album, The Fame. Gaga was nominated 9x this year including, “Video of the Year.”
FANTASIA BACK IN THE STUDIO
According to reports, “Fantasia plans to record her third CD the old-fashioned way. Fantasia likes the live sound from older albums, before technology changed the way they were recorded. She says she’s invited an orchestra to be in the studio to back her up when she sings.
The songs she’s been writing reflect the pain she experienced last year. She says she “went through a lot of things, business-wise, relationship-wise.”
Fantasia will also be starring in her upcoming VH1 reality show, expected to premiere sometime next year.
MARIAH & AMERIE PUSH BACK ALBUMS
According to new reports both Amerie and Mariah Carey have pushed their albums back, yet again.
Mariah’s Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel will now arrive two weeks later on September 29th. This is the second delay for Mariah’s 12th studio album.
Amerie, on the other hand has pushed her album from September to November. We recently posted her latest song, “Heard ‘Em All” (click here to check it out). On the new date, Amerie said this: “Very happy w/my album date! Got the one I wanted,” she tweeted. “So I’m officially putting it out there: In Love & War — November 3, a special date…”
Ewww Lady GAGA
lol…sure Amerie. The album was pushed back because the single isn’t “blowing up”.
It’s the ROC in the building!!!!!!!
AMERIE CD BOUT TO LEAK ALL OVER THE INTERNET…WATCH!
AFTER MIMI WACK/LACKLUSTER PERFORM ON AGT…SHE NEEDS TO BE PUSHED BACK!! MARIAH LOOKED LIKE CASSIE ON 106 & PARK….AND NOT A VETERAN IN THE GAME
I’M THINKING MARIAH’S HEART ISN’T IN THE GAME ANYMORE CAUSE WHEN YOU LOOK AT OLD VIDEO ON YOUTUBE I’M LIKE…”WHAT GOING ON…REALLY?” MAYBE SHE SHOULD DO MOVIES FOR AWHILE OR CHILL…CAUSE SOMETHING AIN’T CLICKING WITH MARIAH AND HER PERFORMANCES
OMG, i am first…..hahahahahahaha
Fantastia, Girl Bye Girl, Fly Girl at that reality show, cant wait for the new album
Mariah, Sit Down, if i have to see u lip synch another performance, im gonna scream
Go Amerie
Go Jay Z
Lady Gaga, is a disgusting weirdo, i love paprazzi, but she is just TO MUCH
Hurry up w/ that album Mariah! Make sure its fiya since we given you all this extra time too!
AMERIE AND RICH HARRISON NEED TO TALK OUT THEIR PROBLEMS…AND START MAKING HITS AGAIN!!!
F*CK THE EGOS…YOU MADE HITS TOGETHER…THE FORMULA WORKS!
Don’t care for Jay-z old ass, he is wack now.
Amerie lacks
Gaga is a beast, and not in a good way lol.
Hope Mariah gets it together because Obsessed is not the best from her.
Go Jay!!!!!!!
I miss the old Mariah….
Fantasia is going to be hot regardless, she has the voice. Amerie needs Rich Harrison BAD, she keeps getting folks trying to duplicate his sound but its not working.
Mariah needs to take a break and enjoy life for a minute. She keeps rushing and putting out wack songs, not to mention she is getting worse with each “live” performance. Since when has a singer like mariah struggled to sing a song like Obsessed? even Ciara could kill that vocal.
I LOVE FANNY! Can’t wait for the album.
that is all.
mariah carey has fallen of for me, it like she more concerned with looking sexy than anything else. i prefer all her older stuff, her music was more meaningful now she telling us to touch her body and why you so obssessed with me. her live performances are off to . she ruined the memorial for mj for me for those that want to say it was because she was upset that is not the only performance where she sings off. but anyways
Amerie is beautful but she one of those artist that have 3 good songs and the rest of the songs on the album are rubbish
Jay-Z is a rap veteran and can still outshine most of these young rappers. Whether he’s old or not (as a lot of you kids on here say) he made it, and he invested his money well and ventured out way beyond rap music. These new rappers need to take notes from him.
And Fantasia, music wise, should be doing way better than she is. She need to put herself out on the scene more.
Never been a fan of Amerie but I wish her success.
MARIAH JUST GO RETIRE! YOU CAN’T SING ANYMORE! YOU’RE LIVING A LIFE OF DENIAL! ALL YOUR “FANS” HAVE LEFT, INCLUDING ME!
NOW I LOVE THE OLD MARIAH BUT NOW, SHE’S JUST A WASTE OF SPACE. WE ALL KNOW WHAT SHE CAN ACCOMPLISH..
Amerie your a liar!!! i know u mad as hell! FRONTER!!!!
I LOVE LADY GAGA!
I WOULD SO “DO” JAY-Z. YUM.
FUCK AMERIE. LMAO.
Kourtney Kardashian is pregnant if anyone cares, just read it on another site.
I LOVE LADY GAGA! “CAN’T READ MA, CAN’T READ MA, NO HE CAN’T READA MY POKER FACE”
I WOULD SO “DO” JAY-Z.YUM.
AMERIE, GIRL BYE. YOU HAD YOUR CHANCE AND YOU FAILED. YOUR ALBUMS WILL CONTINUE TO FLOP.
wtf i just heard like yesterday that amerie was releasing her album on september 29th! i mean are any albums going to be able to be released without pushbacks anymore? that’s really sad, i’m actually looking foward to her album. well i guess this at least gives her enough time to release one or even two hot singles. mariah, i’m just not that excited about her anymore
Mariah letting Whitney do her thing I see!
Amerie needs to make sure her whole album isnt leaked before it drops. Thats why nobody was checking for Ciara’s Fantasy Ride!
GaGa looks like Aubrey. Next…
not surprised jay and gaga are performing.
congrats to gaga. hope she wins a lot
ok @ amerie. i don’t care if you push it back, just make sure it’s hot. i’m rooting for you
Aww that’s good for Fantasia, I look forward to hearing her material.
Go MiMi!
Amerie’s sound has really suffered. I can understand that the music must evolve, but I’ve heard to many artists that remain relevant & maintain the quality of their music. She’s not one of them, she lost me back in 01.
GO JAY-Z!!
We all need to vote for Jay-z.
I’m looking forward to the VMA’s. Fantasia, smh I wish her luck on the new album. A lil disappointed that Amerie’s album has been pushed back, I love her current single.
Cant wait for this years VMA cuz last year was pretty boring.
I really hope Mariah come with some material like her Emancipation cd or some old skool MC.
I really like Amerie too and it sucks both their albums keep getting pushed back considering they actually can sing.
MTV having a VMAs is ridiculous. They don’t play no damn videos!!!
Been hearing that this Lady Gag-me is a DUDE!
And the album I’m waiting for is Sade! I’ve waited this long so now that its been annouced it doesn’t seem like a dream.
@SEAN..
ME TOO! Supposed to come out in NOVEMBER! I can’t wait!!!
Amerie is alot more talented than people are giving her credit for. Her first album was sooooo slept on and i personally think its a classic.She has never been given her props. Her old record label never put any real money behind her to push more than just one or two singles. Dont sleep on her! I hope def jam does her right
@29 I can’t wait for Sade either.
Sounds like Fantasia album will be a good one! I can’t wait to hear how it sounds using an actual orchestra instead of machines. with her voice, it should be good! I love Bey, but I need a break and Fantasia would be a good one!
28, 29, 31 – Didn’t know Sade was coming out with a new one! Looking forward to that too!
Luv Fantasia, can’t wait.
Whats the point of telling the public a release date if you’re just going to push it back? I never understood that. People are either going to buy your album or not, regardless if you wait a while.
CL you could help Amerie out with some promo atleast, lol. She did have a couple of photoshoots recently that could be posted.
Looking forward to new Fantasia. Amerie needs to stop, just like Mariah. Those albums are being pushed back ’cause the singles aren’t getting buzz.
everytime u guys mention jay u always mention his “highly anticipated” album NEWSFLASH….no one is checking for Jay, especially if his first two singles are what we should be expecting from the entire album…now if fantasia is switching it up to an old school kind of vibe, then her album is something to be anticipating..with that being said..I absolutely looovvveeee lady gaga…go girl!
-not really excited to see jay or gaga…
still the biggest selling female artist of all time (globally) tho i love bey i give miss mimi her credit!!!
-fantasia is going to kill with that live album!!!
-mariah has lost her voice
-amerie……….
YAY!!!!!!!! I love Lady gaga….
@ 28
Lady Gaga Aint a dude….Just like when they we’re saying Ciara was a dude….the shit aint true. People love to make up rumors
and if gaga was a dude then why would she be photographed (this is nasty) with her Tampon string hanging while performing….. Trannies, or Gays, whatever you wanna call them don’t have periods…. so how the f u c k is she a dude…
Man yall will believe anything…..
Can’t wait for Mc’s cd.
AMERIEEEEE!!!!!!….I can’t wait girly!!!….Do ya thing!!!…I can’t WAIT!!!!…Loved all three of her albums…although I must say the first two was SERIOUSLY a hit…played EVERY song from start to finish….almost everyday…I really do hope Rich and her get back on track…b/c they are magic together!!
And HOVVVV…..you already know!!! “Sept. 11th marks an era forever of a revolutionary!!!” BROOKLYN STAND UP!!!
Everybody else…PA-LEESE eat dirt and grass!!
Lady GaGa is the next Madonna. The chick is a really talented song writer. Her live shows shit on anything these whack ass R&B chicks put out these days. Congrats Gaga & Jay
Go Jay…these wack rappers today can’t hold a candle….
Lady Gaga…good for her now she can stop ho’ing for rent money…
Amerie..kinda mad it’s being pushed back but hopefully it’s worth it (probably not)….
And I can’t wait for that Sade joint in Nov. either!
mariah – no
amerie – ZzZzZzzzZzzz
lady gaga – yuck!
jay z – blah
sade – YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that FANTAISIA album concept sounds sick…CANT WAIT
Gaga, love her! Good for Tasia–did she go through some drama? Is she still w/Yung Dro??
@ 37 you are so right about nobody checking for a Jay Z album…I wouldn’t be suprised if they’re not even checking for it in NY…we’ve heard all his dam stories-his swag is played, his latest beat choices questionable, his biological age not in sync with being a rapper. I feel he’s in a state of arrested development.
Lady Gaga looks fierce in that pic, she is growing on me.
@ 13 I’m 30 so I’m no spring chicken and I totally think Jay Z has outlived his usefullness as a performer. At the Grammy’s he looked like MIA’s grandpa or something. Rap is youthful genre point blank. He keeps refering to himself as “young” which at this stage makes him seem insecure about aging. Does he mean a young state of mind, cuz who wants that? LOL, that’s the benefit of aging-wisdom. 40 is not the new 30 cuz that would make 30 the new 20 and I be dam if I’m likening myself to a 20 year old-how crazy would that be?? The stuff that rappers talk about should be out of his system-he’s been kinda wealthy and with ‘the hottest chick in the game’ for a minute now and as far as his crack selling Marcy days-they’ve been well documented on ALL of his albums. He’s not going to drop any knowledge b/c he’s kind of ignorant in that department. What’s a rapper without a story to tell?
Lookin forward to the VMA’s. Jay gon’ kill it.
FANTASIA IS THE TRUTH!!!
Team Mariah all day, can’t wait for the album!
Listen, I Almost threw this damn iphone out the window.. FANTASIA is getting ready to shut it down….. Literally there arent many actual singers these days. WHen i tell you fantasia is going to let the world hold it… Its been a long time comming and she deserves it!!!!! I can not wait to hear her scats, riffs and the running that she does.. She is literally next level vocally and she is an inquired taste!!! Lets see it tasia..
cant wait for her album!!!!!!!!!
Can I just saw I saw Fantasia in DC in the Color Purple, she belongs on Broadway, she has my respect and I cannot wait for the new album. I MEAN THAT GIRL DESERVED A TONY. And I am critical, I am not A STAN, I like what I like and that girl was GOLDEN.
@48 you will eat your words, you are old enough to remember that you respect OGs and that is what he is, he is about to shut this shit down, all that wack ass no English speaking talking about nonsense, LiL W, TI, and the rest of the booagaloo south, ugh, I want to through an ENGLISH dictionary at their asses. AND DONT LET ME GET STARTED ON WACK ASS EYEBROWS ugh! HIP HOP IS DEAD, NAS CALLED IT, AND I AM NOT FEELING HIS BABY DADDY ASS EITHER!
The fact that Lady Gaga has 9 nominations with her over porduced music should tell you something about the state of music today, STRAIGHT BULLSHIT!
Excited about Fantasia…Sade and Amerie…Mariah…no comment boo.
Fantasia will definitely bring it!! The girl is a performer like no other!! I hope she leave that ghetto songwriting for the birds though!
Amerie said in a past interview that she wanted a late Oct release but the label was pushing for a late Sept release. She didn’t get late Oct but she got early Nov…just as good…and enough time to promote her two singles Heard Em All and Pretty Brown eyes feat Trey Songz.
Sade FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am definitely looking forward to that!!
I love Fantasia and I am looking forward to her reality show.
Come on Fantasia and Whitney. I am so tired of all the cookie cutters out there. They all look alike and sound alike.
SUUUUREEEEEEEE amerie….you WANTED your album pushed back.. yeah… we believe you! *rolls eyes*
