      The ‘Lover’ singer needs five hours every morning to become a guy in the music video for her latest single, and gets rid of her feminine gestures with the help of a movement coach.
      Mar 7, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Taylor Swift has shared behind the scenes footage of herself transforming into a male for her music video “The Man”.
      The stunning star wore prosthetics to become a guy in the promo for the single, with the singer explaining she even had fake private parts for the role.
      “Putting on the look for the man took five hours every morning and it’s been a joy because (special effects makeup artist) Bill Corso’s been doing it,” she explained in a behind the scenes video posted on YouTube on Friday, March 06. “I worked with him once before when he turned me into a zombie for the Look What You Made Me Do music video and I had no idea what they do to your body to make you look different.”
      “I had muscle suits on underneath things, I had… I don’t even want to talk to you (about) what else, I don’t even want to tell you about it, this is a family show.”

      Taylor also worked with movement coach Stephen Galloway to perfect her moves as a man, eliminating all girlie gestures for the shoot.
      “I was so stoked to have a movement coach help me with things like… you know I’ve never thought about how men walk, it’s never something that’s interested me before, but they walk differently than we do,” she smiled. “I’ve never smoked a cigar before. I’ve never adjusted my underpants like that.”

      Making it clear that she would never want her music to be plundered for profit posthumously, the Fifth Harmony member warns that she will haunt anyone making such decision after she’s gone.
      Mar 6, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Fifth Harmony star Lauren Jauregui has slammed the “creepy” trend of resurrecting dead musicians to stage hologram tours.
      The “Expectations” singer has made it clear she would never want her music archives to be plundered for profit posthumously, or for her likeness to be digitally recreated to “perform” for fans.
      “Wild that I live in an era where I’ll probably have to write into my will that I DO NOT want anybody to release my unreleased music after death or make money off touring my hologram…it’s so invasive and CREEPY,” the 23-year-old wrote on Twitter late on Tuesday, March 03.
      “I’m such a weirdo about what songs I actually like out of those I make I can’t imagine ANYONE having the capacity to make that decision for me after I’m gone…I would be so hurt/angry and I will find ur (sic) a** & haunt you.”

      Lauren Jauregui shares her opinion on hologram tours of late musicians.
      Jauregui didn’t reveal what had inspired her Twitter rant, but her remarks emerged a day after Whitney Houston’s representatives announced plans to stage her controversial hologram tour in North America, following its recent European debut, which garnered mixed reviews.

      Machine Gun Kelly Responds to Backlash Over Sultry Papaya Scene on 'Why Are You Here'

      WENN/Avalon

      ‘Welp, I’m never gonna look at a papaya the same way again,’ a fan reacts to the controversial scene which features a female model putting some of her fingers on a papaya.
      Mar 6, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Machine Gun Kelly recently released a music video of “Why Are You Here”, though it was started by someone leaking the video. The visuals for the pop-punk track saw the hip-hop star having an adult fun, but one particular scene didn’t sit well with some fans.
      The said scene of the colorfully-charged, action-packed video features a female model putting some of her fingers on a papaya which was purposedly censored. The sexual innuendos seemingly offended people as some thought that MGK was alluding to a woman pleasuring themselves.

      “Welp, I’m never gonna look at a papaya the same way again,” a fan reacted to the scene. However, some fans jumped to his defense, tweeting, “People getting offended at MGK’s mv showing a woman fingering a papaya are the same people who have never masturbated a day in their life.”
      MGK also clapped back at the haters in a video he shared on Twitter on Thursday, March 5. “OK, so I saw some of you were offended by certain scene in a music video I just released,” he began. “Let’s just put perspective on some things in 2020 that we should be concerned about. Hate crimes? F**k that. Coronavirus? It’s a big deal. Let’s figure that out. Offensive fruits? I’m gonna go ahead and say, ‘Chill tf out. It’s a papaya.’ ”

      Some fans agreed with the star, admitting that “ppl so sensitive these days.” Someone else pointed that “people post worse on IG and twitter.”
      Meanwhile, some others were more interested in MGK’s pink finger nails. “He wants the camera to see those nails so bad,” a fan commented. Another person was eager to have nails done just like that, asking, “Anybody know what color that is on his nails….? I’m going to the nail shop in the morning & I want that exact color.”

      Demi Lovato Fights Herself in 'I Love Me' Music Video

      by

      [embedded content]

      The ‘Anyone’ songstress explores the theme of self-acceptance in the clip, which features references to her past, including her ‘Camp Rock’ days and her 2018 overdose.
      Mar 6, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Demi Lovato is giving her inner demon’s a kick in the back. Days after announcing the release of her newest single, the “Anyone” songstress drops a music video for “I Love Me” that saw her having a fierce spar with one of her two alter egos.
      The promo released on Friday, March 6 begins with the 27-year-old spending some down time in an apartment before two different versions of herself popped up. It does not take long before she fights one while her other self watches from the side. When she is finally declared a winner of the match, she steps out to the streets in full confidence.
      ” ‘Cause I’m a black belt when I’m beating up on myself/ But I’m an expert at giving love to somebody else/ I, me, myself and I, don’t see eye to eye,” she sings. “Oh, why do I compare myself to everyone/ And I always got my finger on the self-destruct/ I wonder when ‘I love me’ is enough? … I’m my own worst critic/ I talk a whole lot of s**t, but I’m a 10 out of 10, even when I forget it.”
      Delivering a message of self-love, the music video also sees the “Skyscraper” hitmaker making reference to her past. She bumps into a trio who are likely to be a reference to her “Camp Rock” co-stars, the Jonas Brothers, and comes across a woman on a stretcher who is being rushed into an ambulance, which is most likely a tribute to her near-fatal overdose in 2018.
      Near the end of the video, a bride and a groom make a dash away from the “Give Your Heart a Break” singer. It seems to be a reference to her ex-boyfriend Wilmer Valderrama’s engagement to Amanda Pacheco after eight months of dating. She and the former “That ’70s Show” had dated for six years in the past.
      After “I Love Me” video made its way out, Demi shares on Instagram what the song is really about. “I can’t put into words just yet what this past year for me has been… but this song focuses on a lot of what’s been going on in my head,” she explains. “We have good days, and we have bad days. The best we can do is be the best version of ourselves and celebrate that with those closest to us. Wanted to also give a special shoutout to all of my lovatics for always being there for me. 2020 is OUR year!”

      Megan Thee Stallion's Label Boss Fails to Block Her Album

      by

      Instagram

      A judge throws out the emergency motion filed by the 1501 Certified Entertainment chief Carl Crawford to prevent Hot Girl Meg from releasing her new music.
      Mar 6, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Rap newcomer Megan Thee Stallion is still on course to drop new music on Friday, March 6, 2020 after a Texas judge shut down her label bosses’ emergency motion to halt its release.
      The “Hot Girl Summer” star has been locked in a legal battle with 1501 Certified Entertainment chiefs over the past week, accusing them of trying to block the launch of any new material because she wants to renegotiate an unfair contract she signed five years ago.
      Megan was granted a restraining order against 1501 executives on Monday, giving her the green light to move forward with her planned music release, but label head Carl Crawford filed a request for an emergency hearing on Wednesday, arguing the MC has no right to take them to court.
      He insisted the terms of their record deal – the same one Megan, now 25, is seeking to have reworked – are clear in stipulating that any dispute is to be addressed in arbitration.
      However, Crawford’s motion to dissolve the temporary protection order was dismissed, according to TMZ, paving the way for Megan to share her latest work, a nine-track project called “Suga”, on Friday.
      Meanwhile, Rap-a-Lot Records founder and producer J. Prince, who is in business with 1501 officials, has taken aim at Megan for namechecking him in her lawsuit against Crawford’s company and accusing him of employing bullying and intimidation tactics to get his own way in the entertainment industry.
      In a lengthy response posted on Twitter, Prince disputes the “slanderous lies” laid out in the court filing, and claims Megan, who is signed to the management division of Jay-Z’s Roc Nation label, has allowed their lawyers to “brainwash” her into pursuing the legal action.
      He maintains Megan’s record contract, which grants her a “40 per cent profit share,” is a “great deal,” particularly for a rising artist without an album, but insists he is open to renegotiating because he doesn’t want to go to war with Jay-Z, who Prince believes is unaware of the full extent of the dispute.
      Jay-Z and his Roc Nation representatives have yet to comment on the remarks.

      Mar 5, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Katy Perry is pregnant with her first child.
      The 35-year-old singer announced the happy news that she and fiance Orlando Bloom are expecting a baby together in her “Never Worn White” music video, which she dropped on Wednesday night (March 04).
      At the end of the video, the camera panned away and showed Katy cradling her growing bump.
      In an Instagram Live after the video’s release, Katy told fans that the tot is due this summer.
      “There’s a lot that will be happening this summer,” she grinned. “Not only will I be giving birth, literally, but also figuratively to something you guys have been waiting for. So let’s just call it a double whammy. It’s a two-for.”

      “I am excited. We’re excited and happy and it’s probably the longest secret I’ve ever had to keep. And I like to tell you guys everything but I knew I would tell you in the best way, which is through a piece of music because that’s… I guess that’s how I speak to you. That’s how we speak together to each other.”
      Katy added that she’s been struggling with pregnancy cravings, and carries a bottle of hot sauce around with her wherever she goes. She also admitted she’s been eating “the same burrito for weeks on end.”

      After announcing her pregnancy, Katy took to Twitter to tell her fans she was “so glad” she didn’t have to “suck in” her bump any more, adding, “or carry around a big purse lol.”

      While the baby will be the first for Katy, Orlando, 43, is already father to nine-year-old son Flynn with ex-wife Miranda Kerr.
      The couple’s pregnancy news comes after they celebrated the one-year anniversary of their engagement on Valentine’s Day last month.

      Robbie Williams Never Regrets Turning Down Offer to Front Queen

      by

      WENN/Graham Finney

      During a radio interview, the former Take That member jokes he didn’t like the idea of taking a pay cut when revealing that he was once asked to join the rock band.
      Mar 5, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Robbie Williams turned down the chance to front Queen because he didn’t like the idea of trying to replace Freddie Mercury and taking a pay cut.
      The former Take That star revamped the band’s “We Are the Champions” with Brian May and Roger Taylor for the “A Knight’s Tale” soundtrack and the rockers were so impressed they asked him to consider joining them in Queen.
      Williams admits he was flattered but he didn’t feel he could come close to replacing Mercury – and he didn’t fancy splitting stadium concert cash with his potential bandmates.
      “I was doing stadiums myself at the time,” he tells SiriusXM. “I didn’t want to have to split it three ways, but that’s another story… and I just thought I’d save them the audacity of me even trying to step on a stage and be the same echelon as Freddie Mercury. He, to me, is angelic. He’s godlike. It was just too scary.”
      Robbie doesn’t regret passing up the opportunity to front Queen, insisting they eventually found the right man for the job in Adam Lambert. “If he wasn’t such a lovely person, which he is, I would just be terrified of him, because of his pure talent,” Williams adds. “His voice is absolutely incredible. And he’s an incredible performer, and a lovely person to boot.”

      “I’m really pleased when I meet people that I’m just overawed by their talent… and they’re nice. It’s much better than meeting people that give you a talent hard-on and they’re a**holes. You’re just like, ‘Oh, I hate everything you’ve done now.’ ”
