      The former NSYNC star is currently working on his next studio installment and he would love to collaborate with Kendrick and Travis on the upcoming studio album.

      Jan 31, 2021
      AceShowbiz – Justin Timberlake is taking his time working on a new album and has a list of dream collaborators in mind – including rapper Kendrick Lamar.
      The 39-year-old singer and actor revealed he has been in the studio recently, working on the follow-up to 2018’s “Man of the Woods”.
      When asked by chat show host Jimmy Fallon whether it would be correct to say that “a new Justin Timberlake album” in the works, Justin replied, “Yeah, we can say that. There’s a possibility. Let’s go with yes.”
      However, Justin insisted he is not in a huge rush to release any new music as he likes to take his time with his material.
      He explained, “I sat on Mirrors for like, four or five years. I think I just take my time, maybe that’s my barometer – if I still love them as much when time goes by, hopefully people will after they hear them, when time goes by.”

      And Justin, who recently welcomed son Phineas with wife Jessica Biel, revealed his dream collaborators for the album would include Kendrick Lamar and Travis Scott.
      Fallon replied, “That would be a good mix.”
      Meanwhile, Justin – who also has son Silas with Jessica – previously revealed he left boyband *NSYNC because he felt he was “growing out of it.”
      Speaking about the split, he said, “We were on a stadium tour, and I just felt like the whole thing was too big. It started as a fun snowball fight that was becoming an avalanche.”
      “And, also, I was growing out of it. I felt like I cared more about the music than some of the other people in the group. And I felt like I had other music I wanted to make and that I needed to follow my heart.”

      The collaboration was released on Friday (January 29), and they were delighted to get to film the video in Jamaica.
      “I produced it and Jack and Luke directed it. Jack wanted to film at sunrise and sunset every day so we were getting up at 3am and filming long hours,” Grace added.
      “But iann was incredible and was so up for everything. Like, ‘Can you throw yourself off this cliff into the sea?’ He was down for everything. I’m glad he survived. I’m glad we all survived, actually.”
      The band previously revealed how the coronavirus pandemic allowed them to complete the 20 songs they had already written before the health crisis. Grace shared, “We wrote 20 songs or so in the month before lockdown started, just the bare bones, so during lockdown we just worked on producing them.”

      Instagram

      During an appearance on ‘The Late Late Show with James Corden’, the ‘Worst’ hitmaker explains why she dubs the day she landed three nominations for the 2021 Grammy Awards ‘bittersweet moment.’

      Jan 30, 2021
      AceShowbiz – R&B star Jhene Aiko has “bittersweet” memories of the day she landed three nominations for the 2021 Grammy Awards, because the news broke as she learned her uncle had lost his battle with COVID-19.
      The ‘Worst” hitmaker recalls waking up to a flood of phone calls and congratulatory messages on November 24, 2020 as her latest release, “Chilombo”, landed nods for Best Progressive R&B Album, Best R&B Performance for “Lightning & Thunder”, and the prestigious Album of the Year honour.
      However, the “None of Your Concern” songstress’ joy soon turned into sadness as she grieved the loss of her relative.
      “I woke up and I had a bunch of missed calls and text messages so I was like, ‘Whoa, what happened?'” Jhene revealed in a new episode of “The Late Late Show with James Corden”.

      “I didn’t remember that the Grammy nominations were happening that day, and when I looked at my phone, I saw all these (texts saying), ‘Congratulations…’.”
      “At the same time, I was getting messages from my family because I found out that my uncle had passed from COVID that same moment,” she added.
      [embedded content]
      Describing the clash of emotions she experienced as she sat in Carmel, California, Jhene shared, “It was kind of an unreal moment – just a very reflective moment. I was in a room that was overlooking the ocean and I was getting this really great news and this really sad news and it was like an outer body, surreal, bittersweet moment.”
      “It was kind of reflective of life (and) the ups and downs that come simultaneously sometimes, so yeah, it was unreal for sure.”

      Coachella and Stagecoach Officially Canceled Amid COVID-19 Pandemic

      by

      Riverside County’s public health officer Dr. Cameron Kaiser reveals in an order that the decision is made due to ‘concerns of a fall resurgence of Covid-19.’

      Jan 30, 2021
      AceShowbiz – There will be no Coachella and Stagecoach this year as well. Nearly eight months after Coachella and Stagecoach were postponed for a second time due to COVID-19, Riverside County health officials have announced that the festivals have been canceled indefinitely.
      “The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival and the Stagecoach Country Music Festival currently scheduled for April 2021 are hereby canceled,” the county’s public health officer Dr. Cameron Kaiser said in an order on Friday, January 30. Kaiser went on noting that the decision was made due to “concerns of a fall resurgence of Covid-19.”
      The order continued, “If COVID-19 were detected at these festivals, the scope and number of attendees and the nature of the venue would make it infeasible, if not impossible, to track those who may be placed at risk.” It didn’t mention whether they show will be canceled for all of 2021 or rescheduled to 2022.

      The annual festivals, which were held at the 78-acre Empire Polo Club in Indio, CA, were initially scheduled for April 2020 but then were postponed to October due to coronavirus global pandemic. However in June of the same year, Kaiser announced that the festivals would be postponed once again.
      A statement read at the time, “Coachella weekend one will take place April 9-11, 2021 and weekend two will be April 16 – 18, 2021. Stagecoach is set for April 23-25, 2021. We look forward to sharing our new lineups and more information. We can’t wait to be together in the desert again when it is safe.”
      Rage Against the Machine, Megan Thee Stallion, Run the Jewels, Calvin Harris, Travis Scott (II), Thom Yorke, 21 Savage, Danny Elfman, Frank Ocean, Lana Del Rey, Lil Nas X, FKA Twigs and Fatboy Slim were among those included in the 2020 lineup.
      As of now, Riverside County has recorded 271,910 confirmed cases of the virus. Meanwhile, 3,091 COVID-19 related deaths have been reported.

      The Weeknd Reveals His 3 Grammy Wins Mean Nothing to Him After Snub

      by

      Instagram

      The ‘Starboy’ hitmaker also talks about going all out for his Super Bowl Halftime Show performance by spending $7 million to make the performance like what he ‘envisioned.’

      Jan 29, 2021
      AceShowbiz – The Weeknd continues to put the Recording Academy on blast. The “After Hours” musician got candid about being snubbed at the 2021 Grammy Awards in the latest issue of Billboard magazine, revealing that he changed his mind about the awards that he won previously following the ordeal.
      “Look, I personally don’t care anymore. I have three Grammys, which mean nothing to me now, obviously,” the Canadian singer, who won R&B Performance and Urban Contemporary Album in 2016 as well as the latter award again in 2018, shared. “It’s not like, ‘Oh, I want the Grammy!’ It’s just that this happened, and I’m down to get in front of the fire, as long as it never happens again. I suck at giving speeches anyways. Forget awards shows.”
      Adding that the snub was like an “attack” to him, The Weeknd continued to say, “I use a sucker punch as an analogy, because it just kind of hit me out of nowhere. I definitely felt… things. I don’t know if it was sadness or anger. I think it was just confusion.”

        See also…

      The “Starboy” hitmaker, real name Abel Tesfaye, claimed that he “just wanted answers.” He said, “Like, ‘What happened?’ We did everything right, I think. I’m not a cocky person. I’m not arrogant. People told me I was going to get nominated. The world told me, like, ‘This is it; this is your year.’ We were all very confused.”
      After it was revealed that he nabbed zero nominations at the upcoming award-giving event, The Weeknd shared that he received messages of shock and support from people, including those whom “I haven’t spoken to in ages, the entire music community, all my peers.” The Weeknd divulged, “If you were like, ‘Do you think the Grammys are racist?’ I think the only real answer is that in the last 61 years of the GRAMMYs, only 10 Black artists have won album of the year. I don’t want to make this about me. That’s just a fact.”
      In the interview, The Weeknd also talked about going all out for his Super Bowl Halftime Show performance in Tampa Bay, Florida on February 7. He shared that he spent $7 million to make the performance like what he “envisioned.”
      “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,” he told the magazine.

      Eric Church Breaks Vows to Never Sing National Anthem Publicly Thanks to Jazmine Sullivan

      by

      When speaking about his upcoming Super Bowl LV collaboration with the RnB singer, the ‘Record Year’ hitmaker admits he initially came close to turning down the offer.

      Jan 29, 2021
      AceShowbiz – Country star Eric Church reneged on a vow never to sing the U.S. National Anthem in public in order to score a Super Bowl duet with R&B singer Jazmine Sullivan.
      The “Record Year” hitmaker admits he was always nervous to tackle “The Star-Spangled Banner” because he doesn’t think he has the vocal ability to pull off the tune, but after hearing Sullivan sing, he jumped at the opportunity to collaborate with her.
      In an interview on Apple Music Country, Church admits he came close to turning down the Super Bowl invite.
      “Let me tell you something. She may be the best singer. I was floored,” he gushed in the chat, which is set to premiere on Friday, January 29.
      “And you know what, the best thing about this, no matter what happens, because that’s a nervy thing that we got to do, but what a fan, I’m a fan (of Sullivan’s). I’ve went in and listened to everything she did (sic). And I had heard her name, but full disclosure, I had not listened (to her songs).”

      The unlikely duo, which has yet to meet, was suggested by producer Adam Blackstone, and prior to hearing Sullivan’s work, Church wasn’t that keen, reports People.com.
      “Here’s what I said… I’ve said this forever, ‘I will never ever sing the national anthem.’ It’s so hard. Except (for) the Super Bowl…,” he shared. “I mean, I’m not Chris Stapleton. I fully assumed they’re never going to ask me. So, this is the first.”
      “My first response was, ‘Mm-mm. I’m a stylist, not a vocalist,’ ” he added. “I heard it (duet proposal) and I thought, ‘That’s cool, that sounds like me.’ And then I heard her (Sullivan) and I’m not missing a chance to sing with her. And that was it.”
      “Once I heard her voice, I said, ‘OK, I’m in.’ ”
      The duet partners will be hitting the stage together in Tampa, Florida on 7 February, when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will take on the Kansas City Chiefs for the Super Bowl title.

      The Weeknd will be performing the Super Bowl Halftime Show.
