Selena Gomez is apparently adding personal experiences to songs



Selena Gomez may be taking a note from Taylor Swift and making her songs a bit more focused on personal experiences she has been through.
Gomez has been talking about her upcoming album and how she has taken on the role of writing some of her songs, states MTV.
The young singer admitted that she will be addressing certain people with one of her songs: “It’s basically saying, ‘I had a few people who weren’t treating me right, but now I have wonderful people.’ So it’s like I’m thanking my friends while saying goodbye to the other people.”
Will you check out Selena Gomez’s new album?

BC Jean’s shines with “I’ll Survive You”



BC Jean–she’s 22, and we wrote about her first, in this column, last year.
Beyonce tried to take her song, “If I Were a Boy,” for herself and claim authorship. In the end, this talented singer songwriter from Southern California got a $250,000 settlement and a deal with Clive Davis‘s team, which pursued her.
Now BC has her first hit, “I’ll Survive You,” co-written and produced with the Max Martin team. Great hit, and I can’t help but keep hearing that tinkling toy piano reiterating the melody line in the background. BC has a great voice that’s unmistakably hers. The countdown is on her for her album. Good guys do finish first! Hear the new song in the video player on our front page.

Will Faye Resnick Join The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills? - Hollywood NEws


When Faye Resnick appeared last season on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, she and Camille Grammer got into it over the former's decision to write a book about the death of Nicole Brown Simpson.

It was a totally natural, unscripted argument.

Now, Bravo is reportedly hoping for more of the contentious same, as sources tell Hollywood Life that Resnick is being "seriously considered" for a permanent role on season two.


“Faye has met with producers and there is a lot of interest from the show’s fans to have her on,” says an insider. “I don’t have word yet on whether she has officially signed on, but I do know that she was being seriously considered.”

Resnick actually testified against O.J. Simpson during his 1994 murder trial. She then went on to pen "Nicole Brown Simpson: The Private Diary of a Life Interrupted."

Good friends with cast members Taylor Armstrong and Kyle Richards, Faye had dinner with them this week at BOA steakhouse in West Hollywood. Might they have been toasting to her upcoming inclusion on the show?

A-Listers Push Obama on Same-Sex Marriage - Hollywood News


Among other entertainment industry heavyweights, Anne Hathaway, Martin Sheen, Jane Lynch and Ellen DeGeneres signed an open letter sponsored by Freedom to Marry, a New York-based group promoting same-sex marriage rights.

Just weeks after President Obama's administration announced it would no longer legally defend the Defense of Marriage act, his supporters want him to go further.



"Whether to end discrimination in marriage is a question America has faced before. It is a question that calls for clarity from the president," the letter reads. "We ask you to join us, and the majority of Americans, who support the freedom to marry."

The letter was also signed by moguls David Geffen and Bob Wright; former NAACP chairman Julian Bond; and Facebook co-founders Chris Hughes and Sean Parker.

Hughes, who is gay, worked for Obama's campaign in 2008, heading its enormously successful social media efforts. But in 2011, the climate is a bit different.

The president's relationship with Hollywood has noticeably cooled since 2008, as celebrities have openly expressed their discontent with Barack Obama.

Just last month, Matt Damon railed on Obama in an interview with CNN, bluntly saying he has not met expectations or done a good job as president.

Meanwhile, Lynch, the Emmy-winning, openly gay star of Glee, called him a "huge disappointment" for his handling of the gay rights issue specifically.

While generally regarded as well left of center, Obama has long said that he supports civil unions as an alternative to marriage for gays and lesbians.

That puts him to the right of former Vice President Dick Cheney, who has endorsed same-sex marriage. But in December, Obama admits his views on gay marriage are "evolving" and said he would continue "to wrestle" with the issue.

Nicole Scherzinger, The Wanted and Parade lead the midweeks charts…

Nicole Scherzinger, The Wanted and Parade lead the midweeks charts…
It’s all go in the midweeks this week, with Nicole Scherzinger looking like she's about to knock Adele’s Someone Like You off the top spot! Don’t Hold Your Breath has rocketed into the Number One spot, selling 58,276 since Sunday, compared to Adele’s 36,216.

But The Wanted are also giving the top three a big boost with their official Comic Relief single. Gold Forever is sitting at Number Two – just less than 13,000 copies below Nicole. Which means Adele has dropped down to the third spot this week. But that's okay - she's been hanging on to that top spot for ages.
And then there’s lovely girl band Parade, who have happily sold 18,373 of their debut single, Louder! Big congratulations to them as they’re well on their way to nabbing their first Top Five hit!

Over in the Album Chart, Adele's holding on very tight to her poll position with 21. She’s out-selling the second best-seller of the week, The Vaccines (who are a brand new entry this week), by over 40,000 copies! Crikey!
