      After introducing H.E.R., the cameras stayed on the host and she was given teleprompter notes to keep talking, which she didn’t understand.
      “What the f**k does vamp mean?” she scolded as a voice off camera said, “Stall”.
      “Now they asked me to vamp. I don’t know what vamp means. To me, vamp means be a vampire and/or vampirate like slowly disappear and/or elaborate. Maybe that’s the word they should’ve used? Elaborate. But let’s continue on guys.”
      Later in the broadcast, Haddish added, “This has not been the smoothest running situation. Every time an act leaves the stage, they have to clean the whole stage, get all-new microphones, all new everything you have to keep in mind that some of these acts haven’t performed for nobody…”.
      “Me personally, I’m in a studio alone, it’s cold, and I’m ready to bring the heat. But it’s cold.”

      Feb 9, 2021

      The “Midnight Sky” hitmaker – who split from husband Liam Hemsworth in August 2019 after just eight months of marriage – had to pause before continuing the 2013 hit during the gig on Sunday (07Feb21) afternoon ahead of the Pepsi Super Bowl LV Halftime Show.
      Miley’s voice cracked as she sang the line, “Don’t you ever think, I just walked away, I will always want you.”
      She attempted to pick up the chorus with, “I came in…,” before telling the audience why she was struggling to perform the track.

      The song was penned about the end of a relationship and Miley admitted to the crowd at the pre-game show in Tampa, Florida, that she wears her “heart on (her) sleeve” and it “gets broken a lot.”
      Wiping away her tears, she said, “Singing that song, Wrecking Ball, about feeling completely broken and shattered … everyone’s suffering is different, even everyone’s threshold of pain.”
      “I wear a lot of glitter and I wear a lot of armour, and I also wear my heart on my sleeve, and it gets broken a lot.”
      Elsewhere, the 28-year-old megastar honoured her godmother Dolly Parton with a cover of “Jolene” and was joined on stage by Billy Idol and Joan Jett during her performance for frontline healthcare workers at the Raymond James Stadium.

      Artist of the Week: DJ Tiesto

      by

      The Dutch DJ and producer dances his way to the top of the charts with his infectious party anthem ‘The Business’ which has spawned a collaboration with Ty Dolla $ign.

      Feb 8, 2021
      AceShowbiz – DJ Tiesto is back atop the charts with his new brilliant single “The Business”. With over 2.9 million U.S. streams in the tracking week and 204 million streams since its September release, the dance banger has propelled him to the summit on Billboard’s Dance/Electronic Digital Song Sales.
      The party anthem was accompanied by an equally arresting music video. It featured viral comedian Casey Frey as he busted a move as a zombie while strolling through an empty hospital hall and a crowded diner before hopping on a bus and infecting the people to bob along to the catchy music.
      Ty Dolla $ign was among those captivated by the infectious track. The “Free TC” rapper jumped on the “Part II” of the song and added his own flair to the revamp. “Ty’s smooth R&B vocals really takes this track to the next level,” so the Dutch DJ and producer gushed after the upgraded version came out.

        See also…

      The hip-hop star also raved about their collaboration. “We got one! Thankful for being a part of this legendary moment,” he exclaimed. “Always been a fan of Tiesto.”
      In an interview with GQ magazine, Tiesto explained why he continued to make upbeat songs amid the doom and gloom of pandemic, “I think everybody wants to get down to business in the current times, not just with COVID, but in general. I think everybody always wants to go back to work or get ready for their event or for something special to happen that day.”
      The dancey track has since topped music charts in various countries including Tiesto’s native country of Netherlands. In the Billboard mainstream chart of Hot 100, it’s climbing up to top 20. If the last few weeks are any indication, it is expected to continue to ascend the chart.

      Rag'n'Bone Man on Refusal to Release 'Talking to Myself' as Single: No One Needs That Much Misery

      by

      Instagram

      Speaking about the ballad on his new album ‘Life by Misadventure’, the ‘Human’ hitmaker admits to be drinking too much when writing it down, and realizes its selfish side when listening back.

      Feb 8, 2021
      AceShowbiz – British singer/songwriter Rag’n’Bone Man has opted not to release one of his new songs as a single because it’s too miserable.
      The “Human” hitmaker was “drinking too much” when he wrote “Talking to Myself”, a ballad on his new album, “Life by Misadventure”, and listening back to the track when he was sober, he decided it’s a very “selfish” track the world doesn’t need right now.
      He tells The Sunday Times Culture Magazine, “I love the song, but listening back it is a bit ‘me, me, me’. Selfish sod! I have unequivocally told my label not to release it as a single. No one needs that much misery at the moment.”

        See also…

      The track was the only song on the record inspired by the end of the star’s six-month marriage to Beth Rouy.
      He adds, “I told myself, ‘No love songs or break-up songs this time’. Then I went mental in one room for a while and let that one sneak in. Who isn’t bored of break-up songs? They’re everywhere these days.”
      “When gigs get going again, I don’t want to be standing next to a pianist on stage, looking all sad. I want to be at festivals, kicking a**e and making people dance.”
      Much of the new album was recorded in Nashville, Tennessee, and the singer admits that living and working in the home of country music changed the way he approached his work, “I didn’t go to make country music, but the storytelling tradition of the city changed me,” he smiles. “I said stuff to strangers in writing rooms there which I wouldn’t have dreamt of here (in Britain).”

      Sam Fischer Turned to Demi Lovato After Original 'What Other People Say' Collaborator Bailed on Him

      by

      Instagram

      The new inspiring song ‘What Other People Say’ recently released by the ‘Sorry Not Sorry’ hitmaker and her Australian collaborator was originally meant for another artist.

      Feb 8, 2021
      AceShowbiz – Singer/songwriter Sam Fischer’s new duet with Demi Lovato was meant for another artist – but she didn’t show up.
      The 29 year old admits “What Other People Say” started out as a track he was planning to record with someone else.
      “The writing session was actually supposed to be for another artist, but that artist didn’t turn up,” he tells The Sun. “Demi heard it and immediately connected with the lyrics.”
      “I felt like this was something that she really wanted to say and share from her own personal perspective, but she hadn’t found the words to do that yet. So it’s kind of nuts. Demi has one of the best voices in the world. My personal opinion is that she’s never sounded better than on this song. Her voice is other-worldly.”

        See also…

      “She’s been through so much. And to have the ability to be able to almost relive what you’ve gone through to put into a song and share that with people and be able to use your experiences to help others is such a beautiful gift that she possesses.”
      [embedded content]
      Meanwhile, Sam recently hailed Demi, who suffered a sobriety relapse and an accidental overdose in 2018 as the “bravest” person he knows, adding, “It’s a real gift for her to be able to share everything she’s been through, because I imagine every time she thinks about it and every time she talks about it, it hurts.”
      “But she is giving millions of people around the world a chance to not feel alone in their struggle. Demi’s so brave – one of the bravest people I know – and she’s so talented. Demi Lovato is one of the greatest vocalists in the world so to be able to sing with her is such a dream come true for me.”

      Super Bowl LV: The Weeknd Earns Praise for Epic Halftime Show With Bandaged Dancers

      by

      [embedded content]

      The stage is so pretty and colorful with extravagant lights that resembles the Las Vegas strip as the Canadian hitmaker previously claimed that he spent $7 million for it.

      Feb 8, 2021
      AceShowbiz – The Weeknd offered stunning performances for the Pepsi Super Bowl LV halftime performance on Sunday, February 7 at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa Bay, Florida. The Canadian hitmaker brought back his bandages, though it was not on him this time. Instead, it was his backdancers who had their faces wrapped in bandages while donning the singer’s signature red jackets.
      Sporting a sparkling red jacket, The Weeknd, whose real name is Abel Tesfaye, kicked off his performance with his hit song “Starboy” with epic choir in the opening. The Weeknd also performed a medley of his hits, including “Can’t Feel My Face”, “Earned It” and his chart-topper track “Blinding Lights.”
      The stage was so pretty and colorful as it featured extravagant lights that resembled the Las Vegas strip. He previously revealed that he spent $7 million to make the performance like what he “envisioned.” Speaking with Billboard, he said, “We’ve been really focusing on dialing in on the fans at home and making performances a cinematic experience, and we want to do that with the Super Bowl.”

      Toward the end of the show, The Weeknd, who is the first Canadian to perform for Super Bowl halftime performance, moved to the field to sing “Blinding Lights”. He was joined by an army of bandaged-faced dancers. The dancers also had some kind of light on their hands which suit the title of the song that was being performed.
      Fans quickly showered The Weeknd with praises for the stunning performance. “The Weeknd with maybe the best halftime performance I’ve ever heard and seen. Wow! #SuperBowl,” one fan gushed. “I’ve never had such a fun time watching a halftime show in my lifeeeeee. Thank you @theweeknd,” another fan said.
      Ahead of his performance, The Weeknd explained that he would have no surprise guests. He said that there would only be members of his production joining him due to COVID-19 protocols. “I’ve been reading a lot of rumors,” he told the NFL Network Thursday. “There wasn’t any room to fit it in the narrative and the story I was telling in the performance. So there’s no special guests, no.”

      Super Bowl LV: Eric Church and Jazmine Sullivan Make Historical National Anthem Performance

      by

      CBS

      The ‘Guys Like Me’ crooner and the ‘Bust Your Windows’ hitmaker team up as the first duet to sing ‘The Star Spangled Banner’ at the big game in over a decade.

      Feb 8, 2021
      AceShowbiz – Eric Church and Jazmine Sullivan made a historical national anthem performance at the Super Bowl LV. The two singers paired up as the first duet to sing “The Star Spangled Banner” at the big game in over a decade.
      The country music singer and the R&B star, who are both multiple Grammy-nominated artists, blended their vocals beautifully as they sang in Tampa at the Raymond James Stadium on Sunday, February 7, before Tampa Bay Buccaneers took on the Kansas City Chiefs. The “Need U Bad” songstress stood front and center while the “How ‘Bout You” hitmaker was right behind her.
      Church kicked off the performance, strumming his guitar and showed off his raspy vocals. Sullivan later joined in, with her raspy, but also heavy and rich vocals. They finished the song singing together, showing their perfect teamwork, while most players were standing, wearing masks with a hand over their heart.

      The last time a duet performed national anthem at the Super Bowl was when Aretha Franklin and Aaron Neville joined forces to sing “The Star Spangled Banner” in 2006. They were joined by Dr. John on the piano as they sang at Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan, before the game between Seattle Seahawks and Pittsburgh Steelers.
      Also performing before the kickoff of Super Bowl LV was H.E.R.. The Grammy-winning singer delivered a powerful rendition of “America the Beautiful” from an elevated platform near the stands while strumming her guitar.
      Giving it her own unique spins, the “I Can’t Breathe” singer slowed down the tempo of what is normally a pretty high energy song. Her performance was soulful, while also giving major rock vibes, which brought the audience to their feet.
      [embedded content]
      The Weeknd will later perform the halftime show. The performance will be “roughly 12-13 minutes long” and the “Starboy” singer will perform on the stage built within the stadium for the safety of workers and players amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
