Supermodel Miranda Kerr has revealed her 11-month-old son loves hip-hop music. Kerr, who had her first baby Flynn with actor husband Orlando Bloom in January, encourages her son to listen to music and dance along. “He loves hip-hop,” she told US talk show host Chelsea Lately. “When I had him in my stomach, I’d play music and sometimes I’d put on hip-hop and dance around. So now, I put hip-hop on and he shakes his head – pretty funny.” The 28-year-old also revealed more details about her childbirth, saying Bloom wanted her to have an epidural but she was adamant about giving birth naturally. “I was so determined to have a natural childbirth. Now I can much more easily handle a paper cut,” she joked.

The band supposedly want their mentor to perform with them at London’s Wembley Arena if they make the final on December 10.

The 23-year old told The Mirror: “Simon rang me at home one night to chat about the show, telling me things he wanted me to work on to keep the programme as fresh as possible and things he liked, which was nice to hear.” She added: “He told me that he really liked the girls. He actually said he’s backing them to win. They’re all really nice girls.”

Beyonce’s highly anticipated music video for her new single “Party” has finally been premiered on BET’s 106th & Park show. The Kanye West-produced track is the latest offering from the R&B/pop singer’s platinum selling album “4”. For the video, Beyonce’s song features the official remix with J Cole. The Roc Nation rapper is also present in the backyard fiesta visual, alongside Kelly Rowland and Solange. I love it. It’s a very simple clip but it fits the song perfectly. I think it captured the flow and the vibe of the song and, as usual, Beyonce looks stunning. What do you think?

50 Cent wrote a book for young adults. Who knew? The rapper/fiction writer’s latest work “Playground” takes a look at school bullying from the bully’s perspective. The book is aimed for kids ages 13-15. 50 Cent realizes that his music appeals to the type of kids that are bullies and he hopes that writing this book for them to read will persuade them to change. He said “When I present something it’s different because of the energy and material I created in my music. A lot of the times the kids that would actually be a part of the problem are listening. When I offer it, they’ll take the time to stop and read it.”
BoB has recently premiered the music video for his song “Epic”. The street record, which features Playboy Tre and Meek Mill, is a new offering from the Atlanta rapper’s new record “Strange Clouds”. All three MCs have a go for exchanging fierce lyrical raps in the song. As for the video, which was directed by Motion Family, it sees all three performing each of their verses in the middle of a boxing ring, against a locker with a girl in a bikini holding up round cards. It’s pretty basic and some may say cheap but the simplicity of it takes nothing away from the song.

Beyonce has been nominated in five categories at this year’s Soul Train Awards. The 30-year old R&B/pop singer is up for Record of the Year for “Best Thing I Never Had”, Best Dance Performance for “Run the World (Girls)”, Album of the Year for “4”, and Best Female R&B/Soul Artist. Congratulations Beyonce and good luck! The 2011 Soul Train Awards tapes on November 17 in Atlanta and will air on Centric and BET on November 27. I wonder if she’ll be able to rake them all up. If not, what do you think she’ll be taking home? I’m sure she’ll take at least one.
US First Lady Michelle Obama recently answered a Twitter question in which she talked about listening to music while exercising for the Let’s Move campaign. Michelle said in regards to what songs are on her iPod “I always love Beyonce, so anything that’s fast-paced that she’s doing is a good one for me. I have very eclectic taste, so my playlist on my iPod runs from fast-paced to a little more mellow.” I wonder if the first lady ever tries to do some of Beyonce’s choreography. Maybe I should tweet her that. What do you think? She looks like she can get her groove on.
Rihanna has recently premiered the music video for her song “We Found Love”. The video was filmed in Belfast, Northern Ireland and follows the passionate and wild love story of the Barbadian R&B/pop singer and her video boyfriend, played by boxer-turned-model Dudley O’Shaughnessy. I wasn’t expecting this type of visual at all. I love a video with a great story and this one definitely had it. I think this is Rihanna’s best video to date. It’s powerful and realistic. I love the shock visuals and overall concept. Bravo to everyone who had a hand in making this video the way it is.

Jason Derulo and Leona Lewis both took their turns gracing the X Factor stage, just in different countries. Jason went to X Factor Australia where the R&B/pop singer performed his latest singles “It Girl” and “Don’t Wanna Go Home”. Vocals aside, I say he killed it. As for Leona, the British pop star went to X Factor Germany to perform her 2008 single “Run”. No, it’s not an old video, it really is a recent performance. She did a flawless job but I just don’t get why she decided to perform a 3-year old song. She’s just not giving her Aviici collaboration a chance!

Chris Brown sports a werewolf mask and vampire fans in the “music video” for his recently released freestyle remix of Jay-Z and Kanye West’s latest single “Niggas in Paris”, where the R&B singer recruited the help of his “Kiss Kiss” collaborator T-Pain to do the auto tuned backup vocals. This re-recorded version of the “Watch the Throne” album track has been released by Chris as an early Halloween treat for his fans. And going with the Halloween spirit, Chris decided to pull out the 2-minute video with psychedelic lights, masks, fangs and a creepy orange sunset landscape. What do you think?

Beyonce is featured on the cover of the November 2011 issue of Harper’s Bazaar, which hits newsstands on October 25. The 30-year old R&B singer spoke about pregnancy and motherhood with the magazine, saying “It was important to me that I gave myself time to focus on becoming the woman I want to be, building my empire, my relationship, and my self-worth, before I became a mother. Now God has blessed us with the ultimate.” Beyonce also talked about her relationship with hubby Jay-Z, saying “We have been together since I was 20 years old. We took our time and developed an unbreakable friendship before we got married. I admire his ability to inspire others. To me, Jay represents the American dream. Jay’s music has helped define our generation. All that he has overcome and worked to achieve gives millions hope that they can become whatever they want to be. I respect him so much; he is a great man and a great artist.”

Kanye West was spotted marching alongside other protestors at the Occupy Wall Street movement this past Monday in New York City. The 34-year old rapper brought along his buddy Russell Simmons to help him stand up for the cause. Many celebrities have gotten together to protest at Occupy Wall Street, which fights against financial greed and corruption. Stars such as Penn Badgley, Zoe Kravitz, Mark Ruffalo, Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins have all lent their voice to the cause. It’s nice to see people that carry great influence support such a cause. Here’s to hoping that someone will finally listen soon enough.
After the single “All About Tonight”, released this summer, British singer Pixie Lott returns with a new song, “What Do You Take Me For”, a collaboration with Pusha T. Pixie Lott announces her most recent single, “What Do You Take Me For”, featuring Pusha T., upcoming on November 7th, with the album “Happy Foolish Young”, Music-News informs. com “What Do You Take Me For” is a catchy track produced by Rusko, an important name in dubstep music. Pusha T. plays alongside Pixie Lott, a future rap star, who recently signed with the label of Kanye West, Good Music. The British artist’s first album, “Turn It Up” was released two years ago, in September 2009 and has sold no less than 1 million copies. The material earned three nominations at the British Music Awards in 2010, an MTV Award and number one hits.
Idris Elba has compared Jay-Z to Stringer Bell, the drug-dealing character he played on cult TV series, The Wire. The Luther actor says that when he met the rapper he was immediately reminded of the role that made him a star in the US. “There’s a way Jay-Z looks you dead in your eye and doesn’t look away that reminded me of Stringer,” Elba, 39, tells Essence magazine. The irony of the comparison is not lost on the Hackney-born actor who is aware of the rapper’s past career as a drug dealer. Born Shawn Corey Carter, Jay-Z started selling crack cocaine in his Brooklyn neighbourhood when he was just 13. The 41-year-old has been open about his criminal past. Elba met Jay-Z at the premiere of Obsessed, the 2009 film he starred in opposite the rapper’s wife, Beyonce.

Diddy is one of the richest people in showbiz with a fortune estimated at U.S. $ 500 million, obtained through various investments in music, fashion industry, lifestyle products and even alcoholic beverages.

T-Pain has recently premiered the music video for his new single “5 O’Clock” via VEVO. The track comes off of the hip hop artist’s upcoming fourth album “rEVOLVEr”. The song recently hit US radios and is performing quite nicely. I think it has the potential to be the hit T-Pain has been looking for. It’s a laidback auto-tune mid-tempo song which features verses from Wiz Khalifa and samples an extract from Lily Allen’s “Who’d Have Known” for the chorus. As for the video, it’s okay. T-Pain and Wiz Khalifa went to Amsterdam and are seen walking through the city at night and visiting the infamous Red Light District. I was hoping for a cameo from Lily though.

Drake has recently premiered the official music video for his new single “Headlines”. The track serves as the first official release off of his forthcoming sophomore studio album “Take Care”, which is due out in stores on October 24th. The song has managed to crack the top 20 on Billboard’s Hot 100 and is staying strong within the top 30 on iTunes USA. With the video out, his upcoming scheduled promo and the great single, I have no doubt that it’ll be a new top 10 hit. As for the video, it follows the rapper spitting his verses throughout the different locations in his hometown of Toronto. It’s pretty sleek. Drake’s pals Y-Minus, Noah “40” Shebib, The Weeknd, Boi-1da and Kromatik make cameos in the video.
