What's the Song of Summer 2008?

BuzzSugar — Sat, 26 Jul 2008 14:00:46 -0700

You know, I'm not gonna lie: kind of a tame Summer for music, don't you think? Not to say that there weren't solid releases from big names, but it's that time of year when everyone seems to be singing the same song ("Umbrella-ella-ella-ella!") and yet I can't seem to find a consensus of what songs are perpetually on the radio, in our heads, or on the dance floor.

But here are the songs that, as far as I can tell, are on heavy rotation right now. You know, the songs that will remind us in the future of that one Summer when every superhero movie ever came out, Mariah Carey got married, and neither Obama nor McCain was president yet.

The 2008 BET Award Winners

BuzzSugar — Tue, 24 Jun 2008 23:45:12 -0700

Well, there may not have been any robot suits at this year's BET Awards, but there was plenty of other entertainment, starting with Usher's pyrotechnic performance and continuing through T. Pain's transformation of the awards show into a circus. He told the audience to "ride with the ringleader," since "this industry is my circus."

There were some fierce performances from the female side as well, with Alicia Keys bringing up girl groups of yore, SWV, En Vogue and TLC, for a medley of the groups' hits, which definitely got "Waterfalls" stuck in my head for the foreseeable future. Kanye West took away two awards and performed with Young Jeezy. The actor and actress taking home awards this year were Halle Berry and Denzel Washington, and Al Green received the Lifetime Achievement Award.

What to Download: New Music on iTunes

BuzzSugar — Tue, 27 May 2008 13:53:34 -0700

Tuesdays are big in entertainment-ville: Not only do all the new DVD releases hit Netflix, but new music also pours into stores, including iTunes. So I take a spin through each week's iTunes music releases and pick out some albums and tracks worthy of a download. In addition to the selections below, Fergie released a new deluxe version of her album The Dutchess. Here are today's selections:

Blast from the past: It's been nearly 12 years since '80's pop sensation Cyndi Lauper has had a new album, and rather than fully reinventing herself the songstress sticks to what she knows on Bring Ya to the Brink. It'll make you want to boogie and there is no mistaking that distinctive voice.

The softer side of Usher: If there is one thing you can count on Usher for, it's an infectious summer club hit. The first single off of his new album, Love in This Club is undoubtedly catchy, but isn't "making love in this club" somewhat unsanitary? I kid, I kid. The album is chock-full of guest appearances including Jay-Z and Beyonce.

One more album full of cool duets, so read more.

Full of soul: No one does soul quite like Al Green and on his new album, Lay It Down he pairs up with contemporary artists such as Corinne Bailey Rae on Take Your Time and John Legend joins in on Stay With Me (By The Sea).

Twilight Leads the People's Choice Awards Nominations

BuzzSugar — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 10:43:12 -0800

The 36th annual People's Choice Awards nominees are here, and last year's Twilight is leading the charge! American Idol's Kris Allen was among the announcers this morning for the nominees, which also include lots of nods for The Proposal - but of course, everyone's favorite bloodsucking love story landed in many categories, including favorite on-screen movie team.

Why didn't they look to 2009's New Moon? Because last year's nominations debuted before the first movie in the Twilight saga.

To see the full list of nominees, just read more.
