Read my latest Duets recap!
Foster and Jason Farol were in the bottom. Farol sang ‘Me and Mrs. Jones’ a capella for his life, while Foster ripped through a soulful, voice-only rendition of ‘(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman.’ We thought she was better, but we’re not on the superstar panel, hanging out in the celeb lounge!

Read my latest Glee Project recap!
Season 2 of ‘The Glee Project‘ kicked off tonight (June 5), moving to its new night. The theme was ‘Individuality,’ with the new cast being immediately tasked with showing co-creator Ryan Murphy and viewers just who they are, all the while working within the contexts of their castmates. Sadly, we only just met country cutie Maxfield, who was sent home.

Read my review of the new track from Casey Abrams, ‘Get Out.’
On ‘Get Out,’ Abrams is singing over an acoustic riff and handclaps. It’s totally different than the Casey we remember when he was up against the likes of Scotty McCreery and Pia Toscano, covering Nirvana songs in all his scruffy glory. He has cleaned up nice, and his music — at least on this track — has been buffed and polished to a blinding sheen.

Read my review of Justin Bieber’s ‘All Around the World.’
If you told us this song was penned for Britney Spears for her last album ‘Femme Fatale,’ we’d ‘Believe’ it, because the computerized style and the thick vocal effects remind us of recent Brit Brit material. It’s safe to say that ‘All Around the World’ is a club banger. And while we love Bieber, it’s not our favorite song on ‘Believe’ so far.

Read my latest interview with Mally Roncal over at Beauty News NYC.
BN: What are some of your key products for summer?
MR: I love a gorgois glow all year round, but especially in the summer. My Believable Bronzer delivers the look of a natural, sun-kissed tan in just three easy steps: a tanning powder for allover color, a shimmer to highlight (don’t forget cheekbones and above your brow), and a beautiful sun shade that’s designed to make your cheeks radiant like a day at the beach. Also for a bronzed body, I opt for the St. Tropez Self Bronzing Mousse. Not only is it super easy to use, but it also leaves your skin with an incredibly natural looking tan.

Read my review of Justin Bieber’s ‘Die in Your Arms.’
‘Die in Your Arms’ is a backbeat-driven, mid-tempo, Jackson 5-style tune with a piano melody, handclaps and finger snaps. The track also boasts a universal, timeless appeal. We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: The Biebs is growing up, mentally and musically, on ‘Believe.’

I spoke with The Overseer’s Bradley Riggs and got his NBA Playoff Predictions!
The Thunder are the most exciting team to watch right now but when it comes down to winning it all, I think they are still one year away. Miami and LeBron would have back-to-back finals appearances and I just don’t see them coming up short this year.

Read my review of Jennifer Lopez track, ‘Goin’ In’
The song, which will appear on the soundtrack to ‘Step Up Revolution’) the next film in the dance franchise, which hits theaters on July 27), bumps and grinds. It starts out with J. Lo singing in a bit of a higher range than we expect, since, let’s face it, she’s not a belter. But she gets the job done.

Read my interview with Steven Tyler and Joe Perry of Aerosmith.
Can you share a little more about where Aerosmith is at with this album?
Steven Tyler: We’ve been out here working for the last year. The last four months, Joe came to L.A. while I’m doing Idol. We finished working with Jack Douglas and the record came out better than we thought. We knew we’d finish it. It was nose to the grindstone, beyond my wildest expectations, with how great [drummer] Joey [Kramer] played and how [guitarist] Brad [Whitford] played and how [bassist] Tom [Hamilton] played. What Jack brought is astounding.
