Jennifer Hudson wins Grammy gold

February 8, 2009 By Leave a Comment

GRAMMYS/I am so proud of Jennifer Hudson for getting back on the horse after going through something so traumatic so quickly.  She won a Grammy this evening for best R & B album.

“I am just in awe right now.  God has brought me through [so much].  I would like to thank my family in heaven and those who are here today….everybody, thank you all.”

During the Grammy’s pre-show Jennifer spoke to E! News and shared how she felt about the Grammy experience.

“It was surreal. So many people, so much going on…it was too much to take in. At this point, I have seen so much, there is not much that fazes me anymore.”

Let me preface this article by letting all my readers know what a huge Etta James fan I am. I have loved her music for years and years. When I found out that Beyonce was playing Etta in “Cadillac Records” I was utterly confused.

I have nothing against Beyonce but in my opinion, she cannot be compared to Ms. Etta. I think a more fitting person would have been Jennifer Hudson but hey, that’s just my opinion.

The 71-year-old James sounded off on Beyonce’s rendition of one of her most famous songs, “At Last” which B performed for President Obama at his inauguration. Yep, Ms. James had some choice words for Beyonce and for President Obama!

Your President, the one with the big ears … he had that woman singing my song. She gone get her ass whipped.”

She continued, “The great Beyonce … I can’t stand Beyonce.”

Wow! Reps for Beyonce had no comment.

February 3, 2009 By Leave a Comment

90203l1_allen_l_b_gr_08British singer Lily Allen has a much hyped new album releasing next week and a new promise to swear off men!

“But I’m in that mindset where I realise I’m going to be so busy for the next two years. Even if I was to meet someone, I don’t have the time.”

Lily who was spotted recently canoodling with 45-year-old millionaire art dealer Jay Joplin says she doesn’t have a “type.”

She said: “There’s not really any specific kind of guy I go for – I’m still trying to work out what my type is.

“Maybe I should try somebody younger as the older man thing hasn’t worked out so well.

Lily has put a lot of hard work into this new album and is not even bothered she won’t have a Valentine this year.

“I’ll be in New York with my boyfriend,” she laughs. “Oooh sorry no, the boyfriend that I don’t have! No plans there then.

“But I’m really content being busy and am just very happy with the great reaction to my new album. I’ve really got nothing to complain about.”

Lily’s latest cd, “It’s not me it’s you” hits stores February 10th.
