Battle For UK Number One Eminem and Rihanna


Eminem and Rihanna's duet is looking good for the top spot in the UK's Official Singles Chart. 'Love The Way You Lie' has sold a few thousand more than B.o.B's new track 'Airplanes'.The track which features on Eminem's album 'Recovery' hasn't yet got a music video but has already done actually well in the States having taken the number two spot on the US Billboard Hot 100. We reckon that Eminem's album will also be number one after an epic performance (even though he was said to have mimed) at the UK's T in the Park...

Rihanna, Alicia Keys: Seek help for cancer patient Tavarez


Singers Rihanna and Alicia Keys are calling on fans to register as bone marrow donors to help 11 year old actress Shannon Tavarez find a match in her battle with cancer.
The actress in the musical who played the young Nala on stage, The Lion King, was diagnosed with acute leukaemia in April and is in desperate need of a bone marrow transplant to survive, reports aceshowbiz.com.
Her emotional cancer fight has struck a chord with the two singers, and Keys paid a visit to Tavarez at Schneider Children's Hospital to help lift the girl's spirits.
Alicia Keys admits she has been touched by Tavarez's story and is urging fans to sign up as potential donors, so the child and others like her can "grow up to live their dreams".
Alicia Keys, "For her, the sky is the limit, but now she's fighting for her life".
Rihanna has also asked her fans to help the cause before it's too late.
Rihanna said, "Tavarez should be performing on Broadway, but is confined to her bed, fighting for her life. She needs to find a bone marrow donor to survive. I urge all my fans to register (as donors). It's the most beautiful thing someone could do, to give the gift of life".
Tavarez is recently receiving daily chemotherapy treatment at the Long Island medical centre in New York as she awaits a bone marrow transplant.

2010 BET Awards Jay-Z, Beyonce, Rihanna, Chris Brown


Jay-Z, Beyonce, Rihanna, and particularly Chris Brown were the center of numerous rumors following the 2010 BET Awards. The show Chris Brown stole and has been the topic of conversation since the the 2010 BET Awards honored Prince and Michael Jackson on Sunday (June 27th). Chris Brown's electrifying, emotional Michael Jackson tribute performance has received just as much praise and respect as it has criticism. Rumor after rumor has surfaced about Chris Brown's emotional breakdown. First people said he faked it and was only acting, it was rumored that R&B singer Lloyd "told" Brown to cry on stage for sympathy, and rumors even spread of Brown's bodyguard giving him eye watering eye drops before the performance. Stephen Hill, the executive producer for the BET Awards, has come forward to publicly dispel all the rumors.Jay-Z, Beyonce, and Rihanna were only caught up in the rumors because of Chris Brown's performance. When Brown broke down during Michael Jackson's "Man In The Mirror", the whole world relived the Rihanna incident which cost Brown his Michael Jackson tribute at the BET Awards in 2009 just after Jackson passed unexpectedly. Rumors spread that Jay-Z, Beyonce, and Rihanna were all scheduled to perform at the 2010 BET Awards but backed out when they learned of Chris Brown's tribute. BET's Stephen Hill cleared up the rumors in a recent interview. "They missed the awards, because…we have this conversation almost every year. And, some years we are actually fortunate when Jay-Z and Beyonce are in the house and other times, they go on vacation. But I can absolutely say without reservation that there was no conversation at all around, 'If Chris Brown’s coming, I’m not coming.' That’s just false." There you have it. That clears Jay-Z & Beyonce.......but WHAT ABOUT RIHANNA?I know you are dying to tell me what you think about this ongoing drama, so leave us a comment in the section below.
