New Kids’ Single video

September 3rd, 2008, 6:35 am by Veronica Diaz

I had to post this because I used to be a huge New Kids fan back in the day. I was impressed with the song but then again Ne-Yo is in it and helps make the song a lot better. Honestly, they’re not the first band to use a singer to enhance their music. But I was thinking instead of being called New Kids on the Block they should be called Joey, Jordan and Donnie on the block because this trio really seems to snag the spotlight. There isn’t an official lead singer which is fine, but Jonathan and Danny were hardly in the video. I think they did a good job. What did you think about the video? Did you like the song? I did. And in my opinion, doesn’t Joey look good?

No VMAs comeback for Britney

August 25th, 2008, 5:58 pm by Veronica Diaz

Despite all the promotion for the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards show coming up on September 7, Britney will not be performing this year. Boo .. I think I’m gonna cry. No seriously, it was reported by Ryan Seacrest so it must be TRUE! But other than that, Britney has been nominated for 3 VMAs, including Video of the Year for her song, Piece of Me. I had a feeling that she wasn’t going to be on the show but I didn’t want to upset others whose hopes were up. It was too good to be true. Brit’s apparently recording her new album so that’s what keeping her from the performance. But aside from that, T.I., Rihanna, Pink and Paramore are slated to perform. Good enough for me.

P. Diddy now Puff Daddy again?

June 10th, 2008, 12:36 pm by Veronica Diaz

 For O’Neal McKnight’s new single, Check Your Coat, P. Diddy is rapping and is calling himself Puff Daddy once again according to reports on Yahoo.com. There is a lot of confusion as to what name Sean P. Diddy Combs will be using once again. According to reports that a cuff-link seller, Cuff-Daddy.com too close resembles Puff Daddy or if he’ll be able to use P. Diddy in England because that name resembles a record producer that goes by the name Richard Diddy Dearlove. Whatever the name Sean Combs decides to use I don’t think it’ll surprise us. With so many changes, he’ll always just be Puffy to me.

Check out these Top 10 Celebrities who changed their name.

10. Henry John Deutschendorf - John Denver
9. Cherilyn Sarkisian - Cher 
8. Richard Allan Ream - Rikki Rockett 
7. William Bruce Rose, Jr. - W. Axel Rose
6. Chaim Witz - Gene Simmons
5. Anna Mae Bullock - Tina Turner
4. James Newell Osterberg, Jr. - Iggy Pop
3. Butch Firbank - Lou Reed
2. Shawn Corey Carter - Jay-Z
1. Reginald Kenneth Dwight - Elton John
