Reviews of MP3 Players

Jimmy Fallon could be the best singer among hosts, you may think so if you have seen 62nd Emmy Awards. His performance dedicated to “three shows we lost this year” impressed most of us very much. He sung as Elton John, Boyz II Men and Green Day’s Billy Joe Armstrong, and changed his dress in soon to fit the style of three featured stars. The show excited the whole audience, adding great highlights of this year’s Emmy Awards.

First, the comedian was dressed as Elton John, wearing flowery outfit and delivering his own version of “Candle in the Wind” behind a pink grand piano in a bid to say goodbye to Kiefer Sutherland-starring TV series “24″. He sang, “Goodbye ‘24′/ Though I never watched you on TV/ I missed one episode/ Had to buy the DVDs.” read more »

Shakira presents a close-up look at her posing under the sun, rightly fitting  the title of her upcoming new album, “Sale EI SoI”, which means “the sun comes out” in English.

Shakira will map out an “interactive tour” this winter in order to promote the new album. And she promised the upcoming Tour of Earthy Delights will be unlike any other. She will kick off the gig on September 15 in Montreal, QC and continue through December 20 in London. Moreover, her life on the road will be captured on cameras and featured in a new British reality seires titled “Katy Brand Meets”.

There is also an episode when Shakira shot a music video for the first single from the new album. Her scene which was filmed in Barcelona included riding on the back seat of a motorcycle. This filming reportedly is udner investigation from local authorities since she rode the bike without helmet and that is considered illegal.

Even Lea Michele doesn’t get any payment from sales of music featured in Glee, she still has no complaint as she is so satisfied with her current situation. Her performance in ‘Glee’ has brought her so many big prize, including the nomination of ‘Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series at 62nd Emmy Awards.

Although the result has come out that it is not her who wins, Lea Michele is indeed much successful because of ‘Glee’. And the payment is not very good. Lea Michele’s co-star Cory Monteith recently hinted he is unhappy with the low amount he took from the music sales. During a radio interview on Hot 99.5 Washington, he told the host: “I got 400 bucks from going to number one.

“But you know what, that’s okay, because if I’m patient, and if this things does really well, maybe I’ll see another 400 bucks.”

If you are a Justin Bieber’s fan, then you have a chance to play a role in his upcoming film. The young pop star really know how to fully use the internet.

The 16-year-old is giving his devotees the chance to appear in the film by asking them to submit videos of themselves singing along to one of his hits.

Tweeting on Thursday, Bieber said, “ANNOUNCEMENT: Be a part of the Justin Bieber movie! check out the video! U only have 24hrs! Be a part of history.”

Justin Bieber is set to star in his own 3-D movie memoir, which will document his stellar rise to fame and include concert scenes.

It is believed the movie will feature a collage of fan footage set to his tracks “That Should be Me and U Smile.” The film is due in theatres in February.

The Oscar-winning duo Sandra Bullock and Tom Hanks will co-star in the big screen adaptation of Jonathan Safran Foer’s novel. The name of film temporarily is called “Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close”.

The novel follows a 9-year-old boy whose father was killed in the terrorist attacks(911). The boy finds a key in a vase that belonged to his father and sets out on a mission to discover what it unlocks.

I wonder what’s the relationship between key and terrorist attacks. Generally that is impossible as the writter will not fabricate a story that is a real event but far away from the fact clearly known by us, like that the boy’s father has known that the terrorist attacks will happen. Maybe that is a very stupid guess! I am curious about the plot and can’t wait to see “Extremely Loud”. read more »

Bjork, the most famous Icelander in the world, is honored one of the most gifted vocalists. ‘She deserves’, you’ll think so if you listen to her music.

“This is somehow a voice that comes in from the north, that crosses vast spaces, that does have something ancient — something very old in the grain of it,” Ross says. “I cannot think of another voice like it in classical music, in pop music. It’s instantly recognizable. You hear one or two notes from it and you know it’s Bjork.”

Americans first caught wind of Bjork in 1987, when she scored a cult hit with “Birthday,” with a band called The Sugarcubes. It wasn’t until 1992 that she broke out as an international superstar with the release of her solo album, Debut. read more »
