New Artist: Paloma Faith!
All i can say is Wowwwy. Im in awe of her at the moment...i just watched her on Channel 4 introducing. Her Style is Amazing, she would have liked to have lived in the 40's she says but she doesnt know how she wouldve coped with war. She has a background in fashion in college etc. Really stands out.

She is also an aspiring actress and was the Emo in St. Trinians, also filmed with Heath Ledger before he died and when asked to choose between preferring to win an oscar or a grammy, she chose to make no comment. haha.
People have made comparisons to her being like Duffy and Winehouse. She said she feels honoured to be compared to them but really tries to be herself and i think she pulls it off, she has a really nice tone to her voice and is very excentric but nowhere near Lady Gaga extreme. :)

My CARIFF X FACTOR EXPERIENCE =D

This is the crowd from behind me. haha. well the whole experience has been amazing so far. ive loved it.
Well, after queuing from 6 until 11, we were let in. We were about 8 or 9 rows from the bottom of the stadium. so i think my audition was about 2 o clock. I sung Babylon by David Gray and the lady was really nice and said she thinks im 'up there' with the best of the day and that she remembers me haha. Then after screaming and getting a round of applause i took my gold ticket up to the registration area and waited for another hour as the queue was rather large lol; any feeling of being special was totally gone due to the amount of people hahahaha.
Album Track: Beyonce 'Ave Maria'
Beyonce's latest album, ' I am Sacha Fierce' is the album of her life, with tracks such as 'If I were a boy' and 'All the single Ladies' bursting into our charts. However, theres one track, 'Ave Maria' that i thought was absoultely outstanding.

The song is lyrically and musically beautiful. I have always thought of Beyonce as being a mega star, ever since i was captivated with 'Listen' from Dreamgirls which i think is amazing. But when i listened to Ave Maria for the first time, i was in a car on the way to college. Me and my mother were listening and she went to talk and she just shut up and we both listened to this song. It was amazing. As soon as i got home that night i was searching everwhere for it.
It's a take (revamp) of one of the most famous Hymns ever written and Beyonce has really made it her own, the lyrics and the sound are just amazingly written. It's the story of a girl who was Lost and finds her "Heaven on Earth". The perfect wedding song with lyrics like, 'You were my heaven on Earth, you are my last my first, and then i hear this voice inside'.
Im not usually one to go all out and praise something without ways of improving. it is unbelievable.
Single Review: The Saturdays 'I just can't get enough'
So, Comic Relief is here again and this year The Saturdays have been chosen to sing the comic relief single.
I love the saturdays! ill start off by saying, the individual sounds each member has and the different voices are great. I love everything theyve brought out so far. Now, this comic relief business, a great idea, but whos decision was it to choose 'I just cant get enough', i mean the saturdays vocal repetoir far surpasses the track. Its dated. The reasons behind the choice were apparently because it's recognisable and fun. That it maybe, but adding the missed out adjectives, 'Annoying' and 'Predictable' the description seems complete.

MinogueGATE: Will She or wont she?
Danni Minogue and the X factor!
Like a soap Opera. Kat and Alfie, Ronnie and Danielle, Steve and Becky. To name a few, Will they or wont they moments. Well, Will she or wont she? Simon Cowell has offered her a pay rise of double her 500,000 to 1 million, to sign a contract for 2009. The same as Cheryl. But Cheryl has said she wont come back unless its her and Danni. Gosh it really is like a soap.

Alot of people out there dont like Danni, they think she can be fake, due to her plastic surgery and they think her position is pointless. Or some might have a grudge against her for the whole Sharon situation. But i like her i have to say. Shes down to earth, shes a good mentor and although she gets stick, she shows shes human, shes passionately involved with the x factor and has a real drive to ensure her contestants' success. Just look at her first year. Rhidian and Leon, both in her category, both in the final 2. And Last year, given a tough category, shes bullied by the media for her relationship with Rachel, given Daniel, the one everyone hates, and then shes saved by Ruth. The Spanish senorita that everyone grew to love. Is it her time? I hope not.
Single Review: David Archuleta 'Crush'
David Archuleta travels over to the UK to release his EP 'Crush' The sickly sweet american idol runner up to 'David Cook' is trying his luck with the UK Charts.
I have to say, I have been converted to an Archuleta fan. On American Idol, he irritated me with his song choices and just his niceness in general was pretty annoying, and this is refleted in the meaning of the single. Its about a Crush he has on a girl. Its very innocent and young which i think they have tried to make him.
Getting down the it, the single is catchy, powerful and memorable. i was proved wrong. i really like the tune, the beat, its a feel good song and makes you smile. again, the definition of cheese, but it works. i think the single could do well over here, and hes certainly coming over here with a good repetoir. The song has very good harmonies, without them, the song wouldnt hit the spot, which it does.

Is Piers Morgan a case of Marmite?
In the past week, Ive seen a number of opinions on Piers Morgan and his latest 'Exposing' Chat show about the lives of certain people. Last week Sharon Osbourne took to the chair and Piers discussed with her, her rise to fame, her lack of talent that people have often questioned(which i think is ridiculous) her abusive relationship with Superstar husband Ozzy Osbourne, her cancer battle, to name a few. I found it very interesting, especially the talk about X factor rival Danni Minogue and how the Aussie star shifted the show veteran from the panel. I loved the show, but it seems some people disagree...

Mostly ive heard people talking about their dislike of piers, some people love him, some people hate him, this is what ive come to believe anyway. I like his interviewing style, hes humourous, evident by the way he spoke to sharon about his cousin 'Rebecca Loos' who sharon blatently dislikes, shown on the celebrity x factor a few years back in 2005.
Tonight Piers chats to Richard Branson, an interesting interview is on the cards! with a man whos life story will be very hard to fit into 1 hour of television! I cant wait!
Kelly Clarkson is Official UK Number 1
Kelly Clarkson is Official UK Number 1. Her single 'My life would suck without you' has risen over 100 places in the radio 1 chart to knock Lily Allen's 'Fear' off the Top Spot.

It was by no means a no brainer this week. It was between Taylor Swift's 'Love Story' and Clarkson for the top spot and Clarkson pipped her to the post.
The Song, 'My life would suck without you' is Kelly's first song on her new album 'All i ever wanted'. From being chosen as the first ever American Idol, she has done the best of them all so far in the UK, now on the 9th season, she and perhaps, Jordin Sparks, Jennifer Hudson and Daughtry are the only names to make it big over here. This new song proves why she has done so well, its the feisty, power pop material that Clarkson is known for and I think personally, we will be hearing alot more from her and her new album. Perhaps some songs to rival, 'Since youve been gone' and 'Because of you'. Im looking forward to it.
This week sees Lady Gaga achieving 2 Top 10 tracks with Pokerface rising to 3 and ust Dance falling 4 places from 2 to 6.
The Top Ten this week were as follows:
