Sometimes in Hollywood the hypocritical stories almost seem to write themselves.
Today Kim Kardashian announced she was seeking a divorce from husband Kris Humphries.
The couple was married only 73 days – not even three months.
Now, it’s not like we didn’t see it coming, but three months of marriage doesn’t even seem like trying.
After all, Kardashian licensed the photos, videos, exclusive stories, and web and TV material to E! for millions of dollars.
InfoStar even sent them a silver salad fork as a gift.
They could have made it last at least six months – just to make it look legitimate.
Ironically the very network, E!, that paid to exclusively cover the wedding is now running headlines for exclusive stories about their “tragic” divorce.
Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries
See the irony? We’re such suckers.
Kim announced the divorce by tweeting,
“Yes @kimkardashian is filing for divorce this morning. I touched base with her, getting a statement in just a few mins.”
Kim later released a statement to the media saying,
“After careful consideration, I have decided to end my marriage. I hope everyone understands this was not an easy decision. I had hoped this marriage was forever, but sometimes things don’t work out as planned. We remain friends and wish each other the best.”
Boo hoo….
Kris says he was blindsided, and Kim took a day long massage and bath day after breaking the news to reporters.
So Hollywood.
Now the money machine can crank back up at E! to ensure we have 24 hour coverage of all the grizzly details of the divorce for the next two months.
Hmm, it almost seems like they did it just for the attention and the money.
Justin Bieber sure has been busy the last few months.
He just completed his South American tour, and now he is preparing to unveil his new Christmas Album “Under the Mistletoe.”
But last week Bieber sat down with Billy Bush and Access Hollywood to talk about his new album, life as a teen idol, and the downside to fame.
He also gave more details on Baylor - the new dog Selena adopted at an animal shelter, and the most romantic thing he has ever done for a girl.
The second part of the interview included Justin’s best friend from Stratford Ontario – Ryan Butler.
Ryan and Justin have been best friends since they were 5-years-old, and Ryan talks about what it’s like to have Bieber as a wing man and being part of the “Inner Circle.”
“Under the Mistletoe” is available November 1st and includes collaborations with Chris Brown, Usher, Boyz II Men and Busta Rhymes.
We think millions of happy fans are going to find a little something extra in their stockings this Christmas.
What do you do when you’re only 17-years-old but have more money than some small countries?
You have famous Hollywood Jeweler to the stars, Ben Baller, trick out a new black Cadillac for you to make it look like the Batmobile!
Baller, who owns Internally Flawless & Co. in Los Angeles has been overseeing Bieber’s custom ride, and has already outfitted the singer with swag jewelry, a Rolex watch, and a gold mouth grill.
The JB Batmobile is a 2011 CTS-V with suicide doors, custom JB logo side panels, Batman symbols on the front and back, flat black paint, and the word “Batmobile” engraved on the rear end.
Justin Bieber's New Custom Batmobile
Custom "JB" Side Panels
And earlier this week Bieber and his motorcade of friends including Sean Kingston, Ben Baller, and hometown best bud Ryan Butler, were pulled over while driving the Batmobile around downtown Los Angeles.
The cops claim that Bieber cut them off at an intersection so they pulled the entire motorcade over.
Bieber and his crew were eventually let off with just a warning.
Reports say that Bieber and company were on their way to the Hockey game Tuesday night when it all went down.
No harm, no foul. Everybody was cautioned about L.A. driving protocol (don’t cut off cops) and sent on their way.
But this is not the first time Justin Bieber and Sean Kingston have been pulled over by the police.
Just a few months ago they were pulled over in Miami in Kingston’s Rolls Royce Deluxe when the two pranksters went coning and tried to return a Wendy’s frosty to a Burger King as a joke.
Aerosmith front man Steven Tyler had a bad day yesterday.
While touring in Paraguay with his band Aerosmith, Tyler slipped and fell in his hotel shower - knocking out his two front teeth and causing other cuts and bruises.
Tyler spent several hours in La Costa medical center in Paraguay's capital receiving emergency dental surgery and stitches.
Tuesdays show was cancelled and rescheduled for Wednesday.
A concert organizer said,
"Mr. Tyler had a small accident that prevents him from staging the concert tonight. He is fine, he's in his hotel but he's not able to do the concert."
Tyler, also a judge on American Idol, took a fall a few years back during a concert and broke his shoulder. Steven later admitted that prescription drugs were to blame and entered rehab.
Last year, the 63-year-old singer wrote a book talking about his life in the spotlight and his use of drugs and alcohol.
At one point he says he spent over $20 million on cocaine alone.
Aerosmith is currently touring Latin American – next stop La Plata, Argentina. The tour will run through early December and end in Sapporo Japan on December 12.
Well, we all knew it was going to happen. It was just a matter of time…
Transgendered Chaz Bono was voted off “Dancing with the Stars” last night.
Her DWTS supporters are proud of his/her efforts as Bono has helped break down social inequalities in this country, but critics are glad to see her go.
Chaz came under criticism after being named to this season’s team of dancers with many saying she would “Pollute the minds of our American youth.”
No matter where you stand, Chaz summed it up best saying,
"I wanted to show America a different kind of man. If there was somebody like me on TV when I was growing up my whole life would have been different. I dedicate everything I did to all the people out there like me -- and especially to kids and teens who are struggling."
Way to go Chaz.
We applaud you for your courage and for sharing your journey with us.
It seems that becoming famous can be a hard job at times.
Fifteen-year-old singer Austin Mahone visited Chicago today to have a simple meet-and-greet with his fans when he was over-run by Mahomies.
Austin, who had been sending Keek’s all morning keeping his fans updated on his trip to Chicago, at first told his Mahomies NOT to meet him at Navy Pier because there were too many people expected.
After moving the event to “The Bean” sculpture in Millennium Park, thousands of Austin fans rushed to the area causing quite an influx of excited and hyperventilated young girls.
Police quickly whisked Austin and his mother away to a secure building next to the park until they could figure out what to do.
The meetup was eventually cancelled out of concern for the safety of Austin, his Mother, and his fans.
Police told the singer that if he plans to use the park in the future he needs his own security team and must notify the city several weeks in advance so they can plan for crowd control.
Mahone took to twitter to tell his fans that the event had been cancelled.
“Mahomies, it’s really hard for me to say this but i can’t do a meetup on this trip - the police won’t let me do it, I’m so sorry... Dont worry I’m okay and you didn’t do anything wrong!!”
Where was Kenny Hamilton when we really needed him?
World Famous Body Guard Kenny Hamilton
For those of you who don’t know who Austin Mahone is, then you must have been living under a rock.
Austin is a 15-year-old singer from Houston Texas whose YouTube videos have created a grass-roots sensation around him created by his diehard fans.
Remember last May when preacher Harold Camping declared the end of the World would occur on May 21, 2011?
Well, that day has come and gone and now the 90-year-old evangelist says his original calculations were off by a few months and the real date is October 21, 2011.
That’s TODAY! The Rapture is today!
And a funny thing happened this morning…….
San Francisco California starting getting hit with several small, but growing earthquakes on the 22nd anniversary of the devastating Loma Prieta quake that hit in 1989.
The Bible says the end of the world will end with a huge earthquake.
And in Southwest Florida the red tide has caused several large fish kills that are now attracting flies and migrating locusts.
We suspect by mid-day the locusts will start moving west while aggressively multiplying.
We all know what the bible says about locusts? Right?
So, okay – we see the handwriting on the wall.
Harold Camping's Rapture
In light of these, and future events, InfoStar has decided to CLOSE OUR OFFICES for the day and will reopen on Monday morning assuming we are still here.
We just don’t want our employees to have to fight the traffic, lines at the bank and gas stations, etc., just because everybody else waited until the last minute to deal with their impending judgment.
PLEASE – if you have any food items in the refrigerator take it with you when you leave for the weekend and don’t leave any food in your offices overnight.
We all remember what happened when nerd Terry left that egg salad sandwich behind the filing cabinet.
We just think it is best if we close our doors for the weekend just in case something does happen. We really aren’t equipped to handle something like Armageddon during normal business hours.
And if this is the Rapture, then Satan's going to be really pissed and there's no telling what he will do over the weekend.
Besides, we don’t have a wheelchair ramp at our office so it would be hard to get Bob out into the parking lot in a hurry if anything does go bad.
Anyway, see you all bright and early Monday morning!
Last night Justin Bieber finished up the South American leg of his “My World Tour” with a special gift for all the ladies in the audience.
During the final encore Bieber strutted out onto the stage and stripped off his shirt and paraded around shirtless in his purple underwear and red skinny rock star pants while the crowd almost lost control.
See, that’s what makes this guy such a super star.
For now, Bieber heads back home for a week of rest while he prepares to promote his Christmas Album due out November 1st!
Major News outlets around the world are reporting that Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi had been found – and killed.
A spokesman for the Transitional National Council has confirmed to news organizations that Gadhafi is dead and has released a photo of the dead leader being moved by soldiers.
Muammar Qaddafi had ruled Libya for 42 years and had been involved in a bitter war for the last eight months.
Muammar Qaddafi Death Photo
Soldiers say they found Gadhafi hiding in a sewer drain after he fled the house they were searching.
He was killed by TNC fighters after a brief struggle.
United States news outlets while not confirming, are reporting his death.
There has been no word yet from President Obama, Congress, The Pentagon, or any National Security agency, but comments are expected soon.
It seems that young Shia LaBeouf has once again found himself on the wrong end of somebody else’s fist.
TMZ broke the story and says Shia was inside a Vancouver bar called the “Cinema Public House” when he got into a fight with another patron.
The bouncers threw them outside where another fight broke out and Shia got the living daylights knocked out of him.
At one point his friends pulled him away and were trying to calm him down but Shia was having no part of it.
LaBeouf is currently staying in Vancouver while he films his latest movie project “The Company You Keep”.
The film is a thriller centered on a former Weather Underground activist who goes on the run from a journalist who has discovered his identity.
LaBeouf On Set in Vancouver
It stars LaBeouf, Anna Kendrick, Nick Nolte, Robert Redford, Susan Sarandon, Sam Elliott, and Stanley Tucci.
It will most likely be released sometime in 2012 if Shia doesn’t get thrown in jail, break a bone, or end up in the hospital again.
LaBeouf has also just wrapped principle work on “The Wettest County in the World”, a crime-drama centered on a family of Depression-era bootleggers in the American South and starring LaBeouf, Tom Hardy, Mia Wasikowska, and Gary Oldman.
Keep it together Shia – remember where you came from.
A mountain biker racing at Albert Falls Dam was knocked off his bike when a huge antelope chased after him, lunged in the air, and smashed him to the ground while the biker behind him got it all on film.
The rider, Evan van der Spuy, broke his helmet, suffered a concussion, and was knocked unconscious for almost twenty minutes.
After the attack the antelope ran into the brush and was never seen again.
The video has not only gone viral on YouTube with over 10 million views, but Matt Lauer interviewed Evan on the “Today” show Monday morning.
Within hours the incident was trending on Twitter as #BUCKNORRIS - in reference to the inhuman, unstoppable, and awesome endurance and force of the legendary Chuck Norris.
Evan was riding for Team Jeep South Africa in the Time Freight Express MTB Race at Albert Falls Dam.
Big Ben, Westminster’s iconic landmark clock and London tourist attraction is in danger of falling over!
Authorities and engineers have noted that Big Ben is leaning more and more each year and is now almost two feet off level center – and the tilt is getting worse each year.
Now, for the first time, the tilt and slight lean can be seen by the naked eye.
The Lean in Big Ben is noticeable with the naked eye
Engineers think that decades of underground construction have allowed the big clock to sink into the soft ground that runs along the river Thames.
While the 315 foot Big Ben is indeed starting to tilt, officials say it would take over 2,000 years before it got as bad as the leaning tower of Pisa – which is over 12 feet off center.
A university professor commented,
‘I’ve heard tourists saying “I don’t think it is quite vertical” and they are right. If it started greater acceleration we would have to look at doing something, but I don’t think we need to do anything for a few years yet.’
However, many Londoners have been quietly chuckling over one report that said,
"If Big Ben were to fall it would crash into the MPs' offices over the road in Portcullis House."
It seems there are lots of people who don’t think would be such a bad thing.
Okay, so you didn’t have the chance to buy a roundtrip plane ticket to Sao Paulo Brazil last week to catch the Justin Bieber concert.
No problem – the 50,000 seat stadium sold out instantly and you probably couldn’t have bought a ticket if you wanted to.
But for those that have never seen a Justin Bieber concert live before, the full concert video below will give you a good idea of what you’re missing.
The concert was recorded October 12th, 2011 in Sao Paulo Brazil as part of “Children’s Day” on TV GLOBO.
One thing we noticed was his opening song “Love Me”.
Now, either the TV station’s transmission was screwed up or JB was lip syncing to a backing track on the first song because the pitch was way too high.
Overall, this kid really knows how to put on a show.
He sings, dances, plays guitar, plays piano and drums, and can get an arena of 50,000 fans screaming, crying, and singing every word to his songs.
You know you have really hit it big in Hollywood when Victoria’s Secret asks you to model one of their sexy new fantasy bras.
And supermodel Miranda Kerr has certainly hit it big with Victoria’s Secret!
Kerr, who has hosted a television show for the sexy lingerie catalog since 2009, was asked to model one of the fancy underwear maker’s very very expensive new fantasy bras.
How expensive? Try $2.5 Million worth of bra! That’s $1.25 million per boob!
What makes this bra so special is NOT the model it's attached to, but rather the 3,400 precious gems, 142 carats of white and yellow diamonds, pearls, faceted citrines and aquamarines used to make this lady lump holder.
All these wonderful jewels are set in 18-karat white and yellow gold. The centerpiece features two eight carat white diamonds, and two 14-carat yellow diamonds.
“It’s such an honor to wear the bra, and it’s such a piece of artwork! It’s absolutely stunning — it kind of feels a little mermaid-like — but I can’t believe I’m wearing $2.5 million on my chest.”
So, for all you people out there who haven’t found a job yet, are still trying to sell your house, or have kids to put through school - it’s good to know that you have a good idea for your wife (or girlfriends) birthday this year!
Come on, what’s it going to take to put her in that bra today?
17-year-old Season 10 American Idol winner Scotty McCreery has given one of his best interviews to date when he sat down with the Wall Street Journal.
Scotty talks about his new album “Clear as Day” and his thoughts on not being just another country singer.
Scotty says,
“It’s got a good mixture of songs. I remember sitting down with my producer and saying I don’t want this to be one of those poppy country albums. I want it to be current and up to date.”
Most of the songs on Scotty’s album are original songs and several have a gospel influence.
McCreery also announced that after his summer tour and record deal with Mercury that he has decided to return to his home town of Garner and rejoin his friends in high school to finish out his education.
Even though he had security tag along with him to school Scotty says things slowly returned to normal.
McCreery’s album “Clear as Day” is available now at Amazon.com and on iTunes.
Even though Scotty has decided to return school you can still stay up to date with his career at his official web site at Scottymccreery-official.com
Sales reports indicate that “Clear as Day” has already sold over 200,000 copies which make Scotty the first Idol winner to achieve these sales levels since Ruben Studdard in 2003, and it puts him just ahead of Adam Lambert’s debut album first week sales.
Wow, what a cool guy.
Scotty seems to be very level headed and has set his expectations accordingly.
Pop singer Justin Bieber just gave his fans an early Christmas present.
Bieber has released a short video of behind the scenes footage called “Making of the video: Mistletoe” showing him hard at work putting his magic touch on film.
This was the same video shoot in Nashville a few weeks back where Bieber came out to say hello, and try to quite the crowd of fans that had gathered outside the sound stage.
Justin’s Christmas Album is just days from release and is expected to be certified as Gold by the end of the year.
For now, Bieber is in South America heading to Peru on the continuation of his “My World” tour IF he doesn’t get killed there!
Okay, we’ve been watching Austin Mahone for the last year - watching him slowly improve his covers and voice quality over time.
While we we’re impressed in the early days, he seemed a bit timid and a bit unwilling to totally let himself get lost in a song. He seemed a bit shy.
But a couple of months ago, Mahone started using either reverb, compression, or a delay with his video recordings and it stepped up his game by a mile.
A big fat Texas style mile…
There was a HUGE improvement over his earlier videos.
And tonight, Austin Mahone just released his latest cover which is “How to Love” by Lil Wayne – a song that’s been covered by a lot of singers including Justin Bieber.
And we got to say that Austin’s version just blew us away. In fact, we think that his version of “How to Love” may very well be the video that finally gets him noticed.
For those of you who aren’t musicians, “How to Love” is a very hard and somewhat technical song to play and sing.
It is NOT for the timid and shy – and he NAILED it.
Austin Mahone has grown up. He has improved. He now seems able to quickly learn any song he wants, and compile a very professional sounding video with just the right amount of effects to make it sound great.
That may not sound impressive until you realize he is NOT in a $10 million dollar digital studio with sound technicians and guru mixers.
He does it in his bedroom!
You have to listen to it to see what we mean….
As much as we hate to admit it, we like Austin’s version better than Lil Wayne’s.
Now, that brings us to Justin Bieber…
Justin also covered the song and it WAS in a $10 million dollar studio. While Justin’s version was powerful, we think Mahone’s was almost as good but in a more pleasurable, romantic, and “pure acoustic” way – without all the HIV drama and hip/hop rap that’s in Lil Wayne’s music video.
Anyway, we think that this cover is the one that some producer for Ellen, L.A. Reid, or some other Indy label or A/R person is going to hear – AND THEY’RE GOING TO TAKE NOTICE AND COME KNOCKING.
Did you hear that Austin?
You better sit down and take a deep breath because it may be awhile before you have a chance to rest those tired feet once they find you.
Get ready – we think you just recorded the video that’s going to make you famous.
We hope we’re right. We first wrote about Austin in in July when we we’re blown away by the fan following he had accumulated via social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, and his Blog.
Mahone seems to be hitting on all the right cylinders, and doing everything right in the social media world. He has a great voice and the ability to pick up various music styles quickly.
We’re afraid the only thing left to happen now is for his fans to help get him noticed by an important person or music label so he can get famous and start recording his own music.
Austin on the beach
Personally, we can’t wait.
And we know about 500,000 other people who will be beating down the doors of the record store to buy his first album.
Hear that L.A. Reid? Hear That Ellen? Hear that music industry people? Hear that A/R scouts?
We’re just saying – you better snap this kid up because he is going to leave you in the dust if you don’t get him a deal fast.
And Austin, when you hit it big - please don’t forget about us small, yet humble blogs that helped get your story out.
In an effort to keep Michael Jackson’s legacy alive and remove his Children from the current state side trial of Dr. Conrad Murray taking place back in the United States, a tribute concert was held yesterday in Cardiff Wales.
It was held at the Millennium Stadium and billed as “The Michael Forever Tribute”.
But because it was a Jackson family event it was, of course, surrounded by controversy.
One of the headline bands, “The Black Eyed Peas”, bowed out at the last minute leaving event organizers scrambling for a replacement act.
Others complained that the event should have been held in the United States so MJ's U.S. fans could have taken part in the celebration.
But at the end of the day it did what it was supposed to do – remember Michael Jackson.
Some of the acts that showed up to perform were NeYo, Christina Aguilera, Cee Lo Green, Alexandra Burke, Gladys Knight, The Jackson Brothers, Jennifer Hudson, Latoya Jackson, Leona Lewis, Smokey Robinson, and Beyonce who made an appearance via satellite.
Prince, Blanket, and Paris Jackson
The highlight of the evening was when Jackson’s three children Prince, Paris, and Blanket took to the stage for their first public appearance since their father’s death.
In fact, Blanket actually spoke to the sold out crowd of 50,000, and it was the first time most people had ever heard the young man’s voice.
The kids thanked everyone for coming and then introduced Beyonce.
The kids, whose real names are Prince Michael Joseph Jackson Jr., Prince Michael Jackson II (Blanket), and Paris-Michael Katherine Jackson were met with thunderous applause and cheers from the crowd.
Another high point was when Christina Aguilera got up to belt out “Smile”. Judging by the crowd’s reaction it was probably the best performance of the night.
As the concert went one, it marked week two of the death trial of Michael back in the United States.
Prosecutors are currently unveiling their case in chief against Dr. Conrad Murray who is accused of killing Jackson with a deadly dose of the drug Propofol.
The singer has had to cancel her upcoming sold out U.S. concert tour due to a hemorrhage in her vocal chords.
This is yet another setback for the singer’s unfortunate and ongoing health conditions.
Adele was supposed to take the stage tonight (Friday October 7, 2011) in Atlantic City New Jersey.
She also had to cancel some of Her U.K. concerts last month because of a chest infection but later made up those dates.
Doctors say the stress of her constant performing has placed a stress on her voice and vocal chords and she is now being treated and subject to intense vocal rest.
If Adele does not adhere to the Doctors orders to rest her voice she stands to permanently damage her vocal chords and alter her voice.
The “Rolling in the Deep” singer took to her official web site to say,
“Singing is literally my life; it’s my hobby, my love, my freedom and now my job. I have absolutely no choice but to recuperate properly and fully, or I risk damaging my voice forever.
I will be back and I’m gonna smash the ball out the park once I’m touring again. I apologize from the bottom of my heart, sincerely I do.
I know it’s not only disappointing because of the show, but it’s the plane tickets, hotel bookings, birthdays, anniversaries and time wasted.
But please have faith in me that this is the only thing I can do to make sure I can always sing and always make music for you to the best of my ability.”
Adele has been battling voice and health problems for almost a year and originally postponed her U.S. tour in June due to laryngitis.
Her U.S. tour was scheduled to take her through Atlantic City, Durham North Carolina, Nashville Tennessee, Asheville North Carolina, Orlando and Miami Florida, Atlanta, Georgia, Spring Texas, Austin Texas.
All these shows have now ben cancelled.
The singer promised to keep her fans in the loop on everything that is happening with her and when she plans to start planning her return to the road.
But for now, the best thing is to rest her voice and let us continue to enjoy her already released music.
Justin Bieber gave his fans in Brazil a rare treat last night at his My World concert in Rio de Janeiro Brazil.
His girlfriend Selena Gomez took the stage to sing a duet of “Who Says” with Justin, and the Biebs sang “Mistletoe” from his new Christmas album for the first time live!
Bieber had tweeted the night before that his Brazilian fans were some of the loudest fans he had ever heard at a concert, and based on the following video of the duet he was telling the truth.
Bieber hinted at a big surprise on twitter by saying,
“Round Two for RIO is TOMORROW!! I got a HUGE SURPRISE TOMORROW at the show here in RIO....a Special Guest. WHO IS COMING??”
When we can find a better video we will make it available and send out a tweet so make sure to follow us on twitter - @InfoStar
Gomez traveled to Rio earlier this week to meet up with the Biebs and spent a little quality time by renting the presidential suite at one of Rio’s swankiest hotels.
After the show Bieber took to twitter to say,
“RIO!!! CRAZY!! thanks to @selenagomez for helping me do something special for the crowd. a duet never hurt nobody. WHO SAYS”
Wednesday night Bieber wowed the crowd with his first ever live performance of his new song “Mistletoe” from his Christmas Album.
Watch Justin Bieber Sing “Mistletoe” live in Rio
The only glitch on Justin’s tour so far has been the death threats against him if he travels into Peru and proceeds with his show.
Most have discounted the rumors as those of an angry and jealous fan but we hear extra security will be in place while performing in Peru.
His My World tour will wrap up later this month and Justin will return to the United States just in time for the release of his Christmas Album “Under the Mistletoe”.
No word on how long Selena will be traveling with Bieber but we do know she was delayed entry into Brazil for several hours because she did not have all her paper work in order.
For months you have been asking for a page of shirtless Austin Mahone pictures so we figured we would put one up for you die hard super fans and Mahomies.
We even added an extra video of Austin on the beach surfing and acting like a goof!
We searched the world and assembled what we thought were the best photos of Austin Mahone shirtless while at the beach, at the pool, or just hanging out around town having fun.
For those of you who don’t know that much about Austin, here is a little background on him with thoughts about his music, YouTube Channel, and social media strategy:
Now that you know who he is, you should know that Mahone is poised to be the next big thing on the teen music scene.
In fact, as of August 2012 Austin had signed a record deal with Chase Universal Republic Records that shoud put between $3 and $4 million dollars in his pocket!
We now have the official song and artist list for Justin Bieber’s Christmas album titled “Under the Mistletoe”.
The album will be released on November 1st and will be available in two editions – standard and deluxe.
The deluxe version DVD CD will include four additional tracks and a special video of the song “Pray”.
Besides Justin, there will be collaborations with The Band Perry, Usher, Boyz II Men, Busta Rhymes, and the recently announced song with Mariah Carey.
The track list for “Under the Mistletoe” will include:
Only Thing I Ever Get For Christmas
Mistletoe
The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire) featuring Usher
Santa Claus Is Coming To Town
“Fa La La” featuring Boyz II Men
Christmas Love
All I Want For Christmas Is You featuring Mariah Carey
Drummer Boy featuring Busta Rhymes
All I Want Is You

Someday At Christmas (Deluxe Edition)
Presales are already being taken on Amazon and the album will be available on CD/DVD as well as iTunes and other digital music services.
Bieber is currently on tour in South America and getting death threats for going to Peru but will be back in the United States to kick of the release on November 1st.
We suspect a lot of fans will be receiving a CD in their Christmas stockings this year and expect sales to be strong.
“Gold” by January seems to be the initial speculation.
Some days it just doesn’t pay to be a mega millionaire rock star.
Teen pop sensation Justin Bieber has barley left Mexico on his way to Brazil as part of his South American concert tour and he is already getting death threats about performing in Peru.
Bieber has been warned by a Facebook fan site (that we will not name here) that when he comes to Peru, someone will jump on stage and push him off into a frenzied front row crowd armed with eggs and glass bottles who will kill him.
Hmmm.
Usually when you plan to murder someone you don’t broadcast to the World exactly how you are going to do it, or when or where, but hey – we’ve never been to Peru and are not familiar with their local murdering customs.
We don’t really see it as a possibility and suspect Bieber is taking this all in stride.
By Monday afternoon the fight had moved to twitter as well as Facebook, with twitter fans begging Bieber to stay safe.
Trending the hashtag "#BiebsStayOutOfPeru" one follower begged,
"We don't want you to get killed. You mean everything to us. Please, it's for your own safety!"
Bieber is not a newbie when it comes to these sorts of things either.
He has been the subject of many death threats, and death hoaxes over the years. Who can forget the screaming headline last year of “Justin Bieber is Dead”.
His girlfriend Selena Gomez and other past girlfriends have also been the target of death threats.
Yawn…..
The closet anybody has ever came to ruffing up the pop sensation was in Australia last year when a teenage boy climbed in through the arena roof and threw eggs at the singer while on stage.
Ryan, who was Bieber’s road manager and stylists was also credited as a friend, mentor, and all around team player.
Now we learn that Ryan has announced he is leaving Justin’s management team to pursue other interests.
Ryan was first hired by Manager Scooter Braun after Bieber was signed to Island records under L.A. Reid, and has served by Justin’s side for the last three years.
Good was featured in the 3D movie “Never Say Never” and is frequently seen at Justin’s side in YouTube videos.
Bieber’s manager Scooter Braun took to twitter to say,
“For all you who are asking… Ryan is going to pursue some of his dreams… We encourage him to go after his. He will always be a part of this family. Always!”
Justin’s close friend and bodyguard Kenny Hamilton tweeted,
“I’m gonna miss you man! Been so much fun and so many memories… @thatrygood I wish you well…”
Before working for Justin Bieber’s team, Ryan Good worked as an assistant to the singer Usher.
Good spent the early days with Justin on the road and refined his early look and was sometimes referred to as his “swagger couch”.
Ryan is well known for his now famous articulation of the phrase “Aw C'mon!”.
There is no word on what Ryan will be doing or who he will be working for but we suspect it is all good!
So last June, Justin Bieber visited Jimmy Fallon’s late night show and the two did a funny spoof of Bieber’s “Someday” fragrance commercial during the perfumes official launch week.
What we DIDN’T see were the bloopers and out takes that happened behind the scenes during the filming of the segment.
This is hilarious stuff - and shows what really happens when you get two funny people together for a comedy spoof.
The parody commercial harkens back to Fallon’s days on Saturday Night Live and Bieber is a natural for this kind of humor.
The first video below is the ORIGINAL segment that aired in June of 2011 on Fallon’s show.
This next video shows the bloopers and outtakes that went on behind the scenes that were never aired – until now.
We love seeing this kind of behind the scenes footage and it definitely has Fallon’s days at SNL written all over it.
Justin Bieber found his one less lonely girl last night in Monterrey Mexico – and there’s a GREAT story behind this one.
You see, last month when Bieber announced his South American Tour dates, the shows sold out in minutes – causing fans to hyperventilate and yell and scream in anguish.
Cameras at the Monterrey venue in Mexico caught one disappointed fan, Debhani Guzman Torres, in such distress that she fell to the ground crying.
You can see Debhani in the video below.
Well, Bieber took to twitter only 24 hours before hitting the stage in Monterrey asking his twitter followers to help him find Torres.
“I need everyone's help. We have LESS than 24 hours. We need to find this girl… she is at the 30 sec mark. HELP! Thanks.”
Within hours Bieber’s twitter followers had found Torres and given the information to JB’s tour manager who tracked her down, gave her free concert tickets, and made Torres the “One less lonely girl” at Friday night’s concert.
Aww…. What a sweat story.

After the show Bieber took to twitter to say,
“I just met a very special fan...thanks to the help of all of you. She said "things like this don’t happen to people like me"...Yes they do! #dreamBIG and NEVER SAY NEVER”
See, this is why Justin’s fans love him so much.
The Bieb’s has also completed his Christmas album due November 1st and we have already had a chance to listen to one of the songs…. kind of…
