Britney & Whitney In Comeback Showdown!

It looks like fallen divas Britney Spears and Whitney Houston will go head-to-head later this year in the battle to crowned the comeback queen of pop.

Bosses at Britney’s record label Jive are said to be convinced the recovering pop wreck can trounce her aging rival in a Christmas chart showdown, after being impressed with recent demos.

The UK's Sun quotes a label source as saying, “Britney has been on fire in the studio of late.

“During recording sessions for the last album she was consumed by her chaotic private life. 

“But she is determined to make a triumphant comeback. Top brass have been amazed by the quality of tracks they’ve heard.

"Whitney is set for another relaunch at the same time later in the year. They’re determined Brit will come out on top.”

Britney was papped leaving an LA gym clutching a copy of Radiohead album In Rainbows this week, prompting speculation that the singer may be back with a new sound.

However, if you look closely, CD is still in its wrapping.

Whitney is taking her own tentative steps back into the spotlight, bagging a cool £1million for playing charity event the Cauldwell Children Legends Ball in London’s Battersea last night.

Ousted 'Idol' Contestant Jason Castro Cites 'Inexperience'

Ousted 'Idol' Contestant Jason Castro Cites 'Inexperience'



Contrary to Pronounce Marvin Neil Simon Cowell's input, ousted "American God [ tickets ]" contestant Jason Castro said he did non advisedly forget the lyrics to "I Shot the Sheriff" so he would get kicked forth. "I unquestionably did non do that on role," the mild-mannered Castro said during a conference call with journalists Thursday (5/8). "I couldn't consider I forgot such a popular transmission line, something that's written on your psyche. Somehow, it slipped my mind. Simply I decidedly didn't do it on determination."Rather, Fidel Castro blamed his expulsion on "rawness." The Texan only learned how to play guitar his freshman year of college and began telling before long thereafter. He said he ne'er learned a complete song, so trying to find out two in a calendar week was difficult."In one case we doubled up on songs, I wasn't truly able to focal point," he said. "My judgment was just rent and I just couldn't extradite either/or."

Athena, Pigalle, London

Athena, Pigalle, London



You have to feel sorry for Pallas Athena Andreadis, as she trudges awkwardly through this oil production supper club set. The London-born, Greek-raised singer-songwriter has been hailed a asterisk in the making and is receiving extravagant praise while still finding her voice. The critical hail lED to a show up in Transmission channel Five's folk music series My Music; the TV exposure has prompted her criminal record society to re-release Breathe With Me, her 2006 debut album, with bonus tracks.










Possibly the best things you tin can say about her are that she has a nice voice and a twosome of good tunes. And, indeed, many artists have built careers with but unity of these attributes. Simply on the evidence of this evening, Andreadis has neither the volition nor the attainment to recreate to her strengths.She performs Sunglasses of Gray (which also features singer Geoff Martyn on her album), with little sense of developing or play. To Be With You, performed exclusively at the piano, demonstrates the job more starkly, exposing her deficiency of trade in forte-piano co-occurrence, organisation and run-in.This Life, 1 of the incentive tracks on the record album, is an improvement, a pleasant, if unoriginal, strain that makes more of her voice, piece Recently Scarred has a propulsive channel that diverts attention from its lyrical cliches.She sounds more liberated in the second encore, singing in Greek o'er a traditional tune with quasi-military drums and jangling guitar. Merely the prevention has been set high by her generation: Cara Dillon, Kate Rusby and Set Lakeman get songs full of import and feeling, which they deliver with an vigour and liquid body substance that Athena necessarily to detect for herself.
