Alizée’s New Album: “PSYCHÉDÉLICES”

Posted in Music by The Gossip Monger on November 25th, 2007.

Can’t wait until December 3rd for Alizée Jacotey’s new album, Psychedelices which looks to be a blast. It’s been a number of years since her last, so I’ve been impatiently waiting:

The first single is called Mademoiselle Juliette and is already on Youtube, enjoy:

Alizee - Mademoiselle Juliette -

Her new sound is very Britney Spears “Gimme more” with electronically distorted vocals, and Gwen Stefani in style. We’ll see if it works out for her or not.

Michael Jackson Interview in Ebony Magazine

Posted in Music, Artists, Interviews by The Gossip Monger on November 4th, 2007.

Our favorite man Michael Jackson just had an interview with Ebony magazine where his horrific nose looks actually like it’s alive again, maybe with a little photoshop or more surgery, eh? Check this out:

For someone that mainstream society considers basically loony, he is remarkably coherent in the interview:

You have to be able to hum it, from the farmer in Ireland to the lady who scrubs toilets in Harlem to anybody who can whistle to a child poppin’ their fingers. You have to be able to hum it.

He’s probably got a new album coming, the article reveals, with tracks featuring Akon, Chris Brown, will.i.am, Ne-yo, and Kanye West. We personally wish he’d work with, say, Eric Clapton or Carrie Underwood.

Top 25 Outrageous Celebrity Riders

Posted in Music, Odd... by The Gossip Monger on October 28th, 2007.

If you find ridiculous celebrity riders (those contracts they have to do a show at a place that specify what amenities should be provided for the performer) amusing, you should check out this list, which includes such gems as:

  • J Lo’s expensive imported Candles Diptyque – Tuberose, Figure, Heliotrope
  • Peter Gabriel’s relaxing/deep muscle massage in a hippy style
  • The Nine Inch Nails need two (2) Boxes of Corn Starch (VERY IMPORTANT!)
  • THERE IS TO BE NO BEEF … IN THE VICINITY OF 50 CENT’S DRESSING OR CATERING ROOMS
  • Iggy Pop confuses with No toy robots, television evangelists … No plastic seahorses, no bailiwicks…

If you can’t get enough, you should try reading all 18 pages of Iggy Pop’s concert rider, which is hilarious.

Britney at the VMAs: “Porky Princess”

Posted in Britney Spears, Odd... by The Gossip Monger on September 11th, 2007.

According to the NY Post (Why Britney Couldn’t Hack It), her VMA performance was beyond the pale, so terrible it defied imagination. They blame it on a lack of professional ethics:

On Saturday, the day before the VMAs, Spears was scheduled to arrive at rehearsal at around 1 p.m. Our spy said, “She didn’t even get to Las Vegas until 4:30 p.m. It was ridiculous . . . The production people at MTV were freaking out . . . Nobody can tell Britney what to do anymore. No one can control her. She is a mess.”

I say that you just need to take a look at her to see she is no longer the bright, young, motivated, sexy pop starlet she was before K-Fed:

We’re hoping her new album is good, but I hear there’s more machine in it than there is Britney…

Britney Spears’ Allure Magazine Cover HQ

Posted in Britney Spears by The Gossip Monger on August 25th, 2007.

So is this Britney or some photoshop nerd’s wet dream? You decide:

Unfortunately since the photographs are fairly low resolution we can’t do error-order analysis to determine exactly what got photoshopped where. In real life these days, Britney does not look like this, which is a problem for young people everywhere; they don’t have a chance to realize that their stars are just old, tired, worn out bodies that look worse than they do.
