Danity Kane is on Top

This one is a little bit hard to believe but based on the first day sales, Making the Band winners Danity Kane will have the number 1 album on next week’s charts as reported by HITS magazine. Their record is expected to sell anywhere between 250,000 to 275,000 units. Really? I’m wondering how this happened. A reality show winner is on top of the charts. The other top debut is said to be rapper Flo Rida with expected sales of 70,000 to 80,000 units to be moved. I’m no longer wondering why the record business is headed for the crapper, nay, in the crapper already.

Miley Cyrus YouTube for Jesus

Well, it was another episode of The Miley and Mandy Show on YouTube, featuring Miley Cyrus and her bff Mandy Jiroux. The two discussed their fave colors and boyfriends and their religion. They both emphatically answered, “Yes, we are” to a question of whether they are Christian.

Miley said, “We love Jesus! Jesus rocks! She dances for Jesus. I sing, dance, and act for Jesus! Now that I think about it, I do everything for Jesus. We make the YouTube videos for Jesus. We’re all about it.”

No surprise….she also quoted the Bible on the Oprah show a few months ago.

American Idol for Rent

He may have been kicked out of American Idol early but that’s not going to stop former stripper David Hernandez’s hopes of making a name for himself. It’s being said that David has gone to the Big Apple to audition for the cast of Broadway’s ‘Rent’. Paparazzi caught up to the Idol castoff and they say that he seemed a little bewildered by the big city. He kept asking random strangers for help finding a car and even asked a Hasidic Jew whether he was a ‘Pilgrim’. Ok. Moving on, there’s no word whether he got to his audition or is already in. The Broadway production of ‘Rent’ ends its amazing 12-year run on June 1.

Madonna Jumps High

If music pre-sales was a high jump competition, Madonna would win without any contest. Just a few days ago, the Queen of Pop’s upcoming album ‘Hard Candy’ was at the number 18 spot on the Amazon best sellers list for CDs and it’s not even out until the end of April. Just yesterday, the album is already at number 2. It’s not quite the top, but she’s getting there. Mariah Carey managed to move up on the list as well. She’s at number 40 – a far distance from Madonna but at least she’s already on the list. Her record will be out a full 2 weeks before Madonna’s and she wasn’t even on the top 100 of the list a couple of days ago.

Jonas Brothers Go Patriotic

The Jonas Brothers show their patriotic side when they sand the National Anthem on the South Lawn at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington DC on Monday morning for the annual White House Easter Egg Roll. 20-year old Kevin, 18-year old Joe and 15-year old Nick belted out their best rendition of the song as thousands, including the Cat in the Hat, Tweety Bird, Charlie Brown, Mickey Mouse, Snoopy, Clifford the Big Red Dog and the official White House Easter bunnies, watched them perform. It may seem like I’m kidding but really, those are the so-called people in attendance. It is a kids’ event after all.

Madonna and Guy are Going Strong

Madonna’s rep Liz Rosenberg recently went on the record to say that the Queen of Pop and her hubby Guy Ritchie are still happily married. Everyone knows not to believe anything until they see proof and Madonna is more than happy to give us that. She and her director husband arrived arm-in-arm at upscale Italian restaurant Harry’s in Mayfair, London on Tuesday. It looks like they’re still spending time together. But again, I need some hard proof first. They could just be doing this for publicity’s sake. There were a lot of momentous events that Guy could have showed up with Madonna but he didn’t yet he chooses to go out to dinner with her on some random night after a lot of rumors came out about the 2 splitting up. Suspicious.
