Fashion Rocks: Mariah Carey performs new single

September 10th, 2008, 10:33 am by Crystal Olvera

Mimi did her new single “I’m that chick.” I always find her performances kind of hilarious because they basically consist of her standing in one place and wiggling her body in a tight dress while her backup dancers do all of the work. She needs to put this single on the backburner and release “Migrate” already.

Rihanna covers Madonna’s “Vogue”

September 10th, 2008, 12:39 am by Crystal Olvera

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Rihanna is hot, but homegirl lacks talent. She’s got zero charisma. Every time I see her on stage, girlfriend seems kind of robotic and lifeless. Sure, “Umbrella” was amazing. Yes, even her album is a great pop record. But the woman has no personality. She’s missing the attitude that great, lasting pop stars have, which is why when I find out that Ri-ri was doing Madonna’s “Vogue” at Fashion Rocks, I knew fierceness was mandatory. Am I right? I mean it’s “Vogue” people. And did she bring it? Check it out for yourself.

Eh, a little on the mediocre side. I applaud the attempt. I’m not so sure how I feel about the showgirls thing. But let’s face it folks. Nothing can compare to this…

MTV Video Music Awards 2008: Kanye West performs new song

September 7th, 2008, 9:21 pm by Crystal Olvera

Kanye performed a new different song called “Love Lockdown.” I can’t hate on Kanye. The man is brilliant but I was expecting him to go all out here and he failed to bring forth the awesomeness. It’s great, you can sing Ye, but we’d like to hear something a little less solemn. You gotta do what you do best if you’re going to close out the show. Am I right? Check out “Love Lockdown” below.

MTV Video Music Awards 2008: Christina Aguilera

September 7th, 2008, 9:14 pm by Crystal Olvera

Christina performed the new single “It Keeps Gettin’ Better” off her greatest hits record. Sounds like Kylie Minogue and a Goldfrapp had a huge influence on Xtina this time around. Who knew the synth sound went well with her powerful vocals? This was definitely one of the better performances of the night.

September 7th, 2008, 8:42 pm by Crystal Olvera
