The Black Eyed Peas were performing overseas when Fergie announced that the group was going their separate ways. She did insist that would regroup again at a later time. Right now the individuals will focus on their solo projects. Lead member will.i.am confirmed the news on his twitter as well. I mean I don't know how I feel about this. I wasn't that big of a fan. I mean I respected what they did but I was never on them like that. They do have quite a legion of fans so I'm sure they are disappointed. After that little brawl that Nicki Minaj had with her hype man; the police report had been revealed. It shows that Nicki Minaj's age is 28 and not 25 as previously claimed. Nicki is older than me! I can't believe it! Then again most musicians(women) lie about their age anyway. I remember Lil' Kim was saying that Nicki was older than she claimed. Guess she was right! Meanwhile Nicki still stands by her claim that she wasn't "punched" or "slapped...

This has been a constant headline for the past two weeks since I started posting these charts on here. BEP recently made history for occupying the #1 spot for 20 weeks this week included.

Now I don't normally do this but I am posting this week's Billboards chart for everyone to see. If you are like me, I am obsessed with the charts. Every Thursday I would look forward to the issuing of the Billboard charts. Now thanks to many of the message boards I visit, I get a preview of the charts a day before their actually released. If you are unfamiliar with how the Billboard charts work they are based on sales of physical CDs, digital media, radio airplay and more. The Billboard Hot 100 chart is the main single chart which hosts a variety of genres of music. The first number represents the position the song is this week and the second number represents the position it was in last week. A song with no number in the first column usually indicates a debut or a re-entry. Check it out! Oh yea also you may see certain titles are highlighted but that's only because the person who posted the charts was showing off certain artists and titles chart positions to members of the...

Whitney Houston is currently in the UK during a press release for her new album, "I Look To You" due September 1. The album's long rumored first single, "I Didn't Have My Own Strength" leaked out and the response was lukewarm. The vocals on the song were raspy and scratchy. Fact is that is how Whitney has sounded over the last few years. It is no surprise that her voice is not what it used to be. I wish Arista and Clive Davis would stop making Whitney sing all these power ballads. They are just not in anymore. All Whitney needs is some strong, hip material similar to that on the "My Love Is Your Love" album. Now the Alicia Keys song, "Million Dollar Bill" is being touted as the album's first single. And "I Didn't Know My Own Strength" was said to be a rough copy that leaked out. I think that was how Whitney did the song but the way it sounds, it sounds convincing. I think with the raspy and scratchy quality of Whitney...

Wow now this is what I'm talking about! What a way to start the week off! First, pictures leaked of BET reality star, Dorian from last year's season of "College Hill".

Please come to the SoHo Metropolitan Hotel now. Please. • PerezHilton: I was assa...

of Fergie, I didn't see her coming back to B.E.P.(Black Eyed Peas). I didn't even think the group would reunite either. Then again I never quite kept up with the Peas but they are definitely back with a vengeance. Check out this exclusive interview! ---------------- Now playing: Usher - Take Your Hand via FoxyTunes

but I didn't think they were true. Tiny, former member of Xscape and well-known for being T.I.'s baby mother and Toya, Lil' Wayne's baby mother has a show.
