Soon we'll be hitting the cinema to watch a film that host 2 big pop stars: Cher the legend, and Christina Aguilera. The title of the film tells all about the plot, i think it will be one of those films that tells the rise of a star (like Coyote Ugly and so on) this time in a burlesque club,do you remember Christina hit Lady Marmelade? maybe it will be a long video clip. Watching the trailer it seems an episode of Pussycat Dolls Present: The Search for the Next Doll with Cher being Robin Antin.What's maybe interisting is what's outside the film: Will Christina come back as a star and win the sales with this film soundtrack after the fail of her last album? Will the help of Cher be precious to her? We'll see if this film will help the star rise again. In the meantime enjoy the trailer.
A partire dal 23 dicembre 2010 potremo dire la nostra su Burlesque film che vede protagoniste 2 star della musica: la mitica Cher che torna a fare l'attrice e una popstar in cerca di riscatto Christina Aguilera dopo il recente flop del suo ultimo album.
La storia del film appare scontata, l'ascesa di una star in un club di burlesque. Guardando il trailer sembra una puntata di Pussycat Dolls Present: The Search for the Next Doll con Cher che interpreta Robin Antin.Sarà interessante vedere forse quello che accadrà al di là del film.
Christina Aguilera sembra voler tornare ai fasti di Lady Marmelade visto che il film è incentrato su spettacoli di burlesque. Riuscirà Christina con l'aiuto di Cher a fare della colonna sonora del film un successo di vendite? Staremo a vedere! Nell'attesa del film godtevi il trailer.
What the hell is happening out there? Hey Lenny you're in women's wear! You are wearing high heels and a skirt! I'm speechless. Ok he's an artist but what would this outfit should mean?Let's think about it!

In less than a week the second episode of the second season of Glee will be aired in the 28th of September on Fox. The best part is that the show will host a special guest star! If you're guessing who here's the hint: the title of the episode is Britney/Brittany so if you're not out of this world you might have guessed the episode is all about Britney Spears! The popstar, who already acted in tv-shows ("Will&Grace" and two episodes of "How I met your mother") will host the show as confirmed by Ryan Murphy creator of Glee and by Britney in her Twitter account during the shooting.
Here's the episode commercial!
There's no Britney in the promo! Maybe it's a trick to keep up the suspance...will see!
In the promo we see Brittany, a blonde sixteen student,a cheerleader dancing on "Me against the music","I'm a slave 4 u" e "Toxic". Other songs confirmed are "...Baby one more time", "Oops!...I did it again", "Stronger" e "Piece of me".
Here's some pictures taken on the set of Glee.
Happiness Hurts seems quite an assumption by this dynamic duo of Manchester.
Their first beautiful album is out and it deserves a review because i'm listening it over and over.
Some of the songs included in the album have already been presented as singles but only with the full listening of the album we can appreciate the journey in the world of Hurts.
One by one the songs tell us a story, everyone is a piece in a puzzle, a piece of glass in a broken mirror.
The world of Hurts is evocative and melancholy, is ipnotic and anaesthetic but even give us strong emotions a vertigo of exaltation like in the hit song "better than love" or "stay. The music accompain beautifully the words, it's like listening a series of stories tied together by a common theme, by a fil rouge. The songs complete each other in chords and words. It's like you can sing a strophe of one song and then attach another strophe of another and it makes perfect sense and sonds right. It's a completed project everything is explained and there's nothing left that could be added or taken off this jewel. The music is very emotional, they explore felings like failure, love,struggle, the difficulties of winning drugs habits, the need of a human contact and regardless all this the willing to live life happily.
Watch and listen the single "better than love"

The Water
i'll try to tell you the story of this album sharing with you pieces of the lyrics of the songs: Silver lining (i will protect you)
There's a storm on the streets, but you still don't go
The clouds go black and the thunder rolls
And I won't let you drown, when the water's pulling you in
When the World surrounds you, I'll make it go away
I will try to save you, cover up the grey
Now there's no way back from the things you've done
And it's never going to be alright
Wonderful Life(don't forget life is beautiful)
On a bridge across the Severn on a saturday night,
Susie meets the man of her dreams.
He says that he got in trouble and if she doesn't mind
He doesn't want the company
And Susie knows the baby was a family man,
But the world has got him down on his knees
So she throws him at the wall and kisses burn like fire,
And suddenly he starts to believe
Don't let go
Never give up, it's such a wonderful life
Blood tears and gold (go away it's over)
I never thought I could forget you
I never thought I'd be the man I am now
Just 20 seconds since I left you
'Cause I could never be your lover
There's really nothing left to lose
That I'm never coming back to you
Love grows cold
Blood, tears and gold
Won't make it any better
Sunday (come back i need you)
There are times when we question the things we know
Never thought that the cracks will begin to show
We both know love is not that easy
I wish I'd known that it would be this hard to be alone
Please, come home!
But till you come back where you belong
It's just another lonely Sunday
Is this the end of the love that had just began?
I always hope that the best it was yet to come
If you don't come back tomorrow
I'll be left here in the cold
If you don't come back tomorrow, I'll go
Stay (the loss of love)
My whole life waiting for the right time
To tell you how I feel
We say goodbye in the pouring rain
And I break down as you walk away
Stay, stay
'Cause all my life I felt this way
But I could never find the words to say
I had nowhere to run to
Nothing to hold on to
I came so close to giving it up
And I wonder if you know
How it feels to let you go?
Illuminated (now i understand)
Time waits for no-one,
So do you want to waste some time alone tonight.
Don't be afraid of tomorrow,
Suddenly my eyes are open,
Everything comes into focus, ah.
We are all illuminated,
Swim with your sorrows.
I tried delusion for a while,
It's such a beautiful lie.
You gotta lose inhibition.
Romance your ego for a while,
Come on give it a try.
Evelyn(love help me saving from the drugs)
In the night
As you see when watch me sleep
I know you cry
So if you go
I don't know what to do
So don't you go
So stay with me Evelyn.
Don't leave me with a medicine
Better than love(exaltation of drug use,feeling invincible)
Every second is a lifetime
And every minute more brings you closer to God
And you see nothing but the red lights
You let your body burn like never before
And it feels better than love
Yeah it feels better than love
Turn away, turn away, close your eyes
You can runaway
It's not enough
I see the lights through the rain, oh tonight
But they never change
So what is love
Devotion (redemption looking for God)
Inside the heart of every man
There is so much to understand
And I'm just the same
Devotion save me now
I don't wanna stray from the hallow ground
I'll turn temptation down.
Forgive my thoughts when I'm asleep
Forgive these words I'm yet to speak
I feel so ashamed
Right now you seem so far away
I'm a slave unto the mercy of your love
For so long, I've been so wrong
I could never live without you.
Unspoken (misunderstood)
Nothing that I do
Will ever be enough for you
Whatever I do, whatever I do
Take me as I am
I'll never be the other man
Forget about you
I'll forget about this time
And if it's set in motion
I'll watch it all pass by.
And leave the rest unspoken
I'll never change my mind.
Water(fear of the inexplicable)
There's something in the water
I do not feel safe
It always feels like torture
To be this close
I wish that I was stronger
I'd separate the waves
Not just let the water
Take me away

The 21th of September the new Shunk Anansie album is out after the big success of Smashes and Trashes their best of.
"My ugly boy" their first single is on the radio. The new european tour the ‘O2 Academy Tour’ will be in Great Britain in november and will visit Italy the 12th of February at Mediolanum Forum di Assago.
From their site:
After a sell out UK Tour last autumn, Skunk Anansie are back for a 10 date jaunt in November 2010. With 5 million album sales, one of the most forthright, iconic, and confrontational female lead singers in modern musical history, a six-year back catalogue to make you quiver, Skunk Anansie are back! Following an eight-year hiatus, Skunk Anansie are re-born, revitalised and as confrontational as ever, fully armed with highly charged, brand new tracks, a blistering greatest hits record. Last year they return with their epic new single Because Of You from their Greatest Hits record, Smashes and Trashes out now. Written and produced by Skunk Anansie – Skin (Lead Vocals), Cass (bass), Ace (Guitar) and Mark Richardson (Drums) ‘Because Of You’ is bursting with visceral energy. Kicking off with a sinister, nape prickling guitar riff, Skin’s intense vocal, which has never sounded better climbs on top, the track then hits you with a powerful wall of sound, showcasing their raw power and guile. The Greatest Hits record Smashes and Trashes is a 15-track career-embracing album. It features classic moments from their first two Top Ten albums Paranoid & Sunburnt, Stoosh and their 1999 album Post Orgasmic Chill. From the rejoiceful Weak to the anthemic Hedonism (Just Because You Feel Good) it’s a timeless record brimming with hits, which is translated into the here and now in the form of their three brand new tracks; Because Of You, Tear The Place Up and Squander. Skunk Anansies next studio album is loosely penciled in for mid-2010. The live arena is, of course, Skunks natural habitat – the band’s personal live highlights include a show-stopping appearance at Glastonbury in 1999, playing Nelson Mandelas 80th Birthday Party and playing in front of the Dalai Lama.

Lady Gaga spreads her word in the world of politics and civil rights. After the speech of 11 October at the National Equality March, Gaga has decided to go deeper in his fight for gay rights, publishing a video on YouTube in which he expresses herself with great professionalism, against the law of "Do not Ask, Do not Tell."
That is the law that forces gay members of the USA military of not disclosing their sexual orientation. Next week this law will be abolished. Gaga still wants to protest against Senator John McCain, who is against the motion.
