Justin Bieber

After pleading with his fans on Monday, “If you guys are really fans you wouldn’t be so mean to people I like”. Selena took it upon herself to comment below the post with her own opinion.

“If you can’t handle the hate, then stop posting pictures of your girlfriend lol- it should be special between you two only. Don’t be mad at your fans, they love you”

I personally can’t tell if she’s being bitter and trolling or simply trying to help. However, something tells me it is not completely the latter.

JBiebs and Selena maturely went back and forth with the comments on Insta in the form of subliminal messages. They also didn’t have a problem airing out their own dirty laundry in front of the entire world. Rumors of cheating, and clear miscommunication within their past relationship were all sadly confirmed.

After the gloves came off, Selena attempted to be the bigger person. She took the drama to Snapchat and apologized for what she said. Her exact words were,  “What I said was selfish and pointless”. Justin Bieber didn’t feel the need to say sorry at all (ironic), and simply deleted his Instagram as a whole.

Shura is just getting started with the recent release of her new single “What’s it Gonna Be?” The British/Russian singer and songwriter has a certain sound reminiscent of an early 80’s Madonna, which is iconic in itself. The shallow drums and tambourine in the background call to the immediate image of hair metal bands and leg warmers.

The album art work and music synonymously mix the real world and her created world. By matching her own tastes with music of the past, Shura gets an outcome unlike her competition.  Shura’s greatest influencers are icons like most but specifically are artists from the 80’s. In an interview with HungerTV, she lists her inspiration as the following:

“The Velvet Rope by Janet Jackson was a game changer in terms of inspiration, but there’s a lot of early Madonna in me, I think. Growing up on those records had a massive effect on me. I’m absolutely freaking out over Whitney Houston’s ‘How Will I Know’ at the moment. Then there’s Patrice Rushen, Diana Ross, Tina Turner, Raphael Saadiq, Dilla and early Prince. On the newer side of things obviously Dev Hynes is a massive inspiration, I’m also a card carrying Drake fan – and I’ll always have a seriously soft spot for Mariah Carey’s The Emancipation of Mimi.”

I am personally curious to know how she is liking this new Drake and his even newer sounds featuring reggae tone. I think their styles would work well together considering her previous songs and inventive themes. One can only wish!

“What’s it Gonna Be?” is Shura’s fifth release from her upcoming album Nothing’s Real. Earlier releases from Nothing’s Real include enchanting, up-beat love songs like “2Shy” “Touch,” “White Light” and “Indecision.“ The album is set to release July 8th through Polydore Records, which is a British record label company under Universal Music Group. Similar artist’s under the label include Selena Gomez, Miley Cyrus, and The Beatles.

The network is looking to break the mold and rebrand themselves with new original content from some of the biggest names to hit the spotlight.

UFC fighter, Ronda Rousey is just one of those names. Deadline reports that Rousey has signed a three-picture movie deal to bring stories that reflect her passions about empowerment to the screen.” It’s a great move on Rousey’s behalf as she looks to add more credits to her breakout roles in Hollywood. It began with 2014’s The Expendables 3, while her most recent project was the movie rendition of HBO’s Entourage.

In addition to Rousey’s trio of movies, Lifetime has other projects in the works with singer-actress, Selena Gomez, tennis star, Serena Williams and Janet Jackson.

Gomez will executive produce a scripted drama series based on her life with Kevin Spacey (House of Cards). As weird as it sounds for Spacey to collaborate with Gomez on a project about her life story, the series may be worth watching as Spacey breathes life into something completely opposite from House of Cards.

Williams is set to produce a movie “Inspired by the annual dance-off she hosts with sister Venus” under the working title, Sister Dance.

Jackson’s project will follow the real-life story of the 1920s mobster, Queenie, the only female crime boss active during the prohibition-era.

The network has finally recognized their viewership has changed and they are in charge, representing a new era. Executive VP, Liz Gateley disclosed with The Hollywood Reporter that “Women in peril” are being traded for a new “fempire.”
