Britney Spears Claims She Will Out Sell Everyone

Britney Spears Claims She Will Out Sell Everyone

Britney Update #1:  Nothing new here really, but it seems even more evident that Britney Spears will be losing her 50:50 custody rights to her children. Britney was to stay away from drugs and alcohol prior to visiting her kids. A Hollywood source said that HAS NOT been the case. I. am. so. surprised.

Britney Update #2:  “The Britney” has done it again. She opened her mouth after one of her drunk/high sessions and now looks even more like an ass. Is that even possible? Anyway, Britney Spears has now stated that her new album will out sell all other albums released on November 13, includig Celine Dion’s. Yeah, cause Britney’s voice is so much better. Not.

Dixie Chicks – Biography of a Band

dixie chicks hdr Dixie Chicks   Biography of a Band

The Dixie Chicks rose from relative obscurity in 1998 to become one of the most popular acts in contemporary country music. Their origins date back nearly a decade earlier, to 1989, when fiddler Martie Seidel and her banjo-playing sister Emily Erwin formed the group in Dallas with bassist Laura Lynch and guitarist Robin Lynn Macy; after getting their start on local street corners, the quartet soon graduated to clubs, receiving an enormous boost when Seidel earned third place honors at the National Fiddle Championships. Originally, the Dixie Chicks (their name inspired by the Little Feat song “Dixie Chickens”) promoted a classic cowgirl image, complete with a sound inspired by traditional country, folk, and bluegrass; they even titled their 1990 indie-label debut Thank Heavens for Dale Evans.

Babyface Biography

As a singer, producer, and songwriter, Babyface was an inescapable presence in virtually every major facet of pop music during the '90s. His own recordings helped rejuvenate the R&B tradition of the smooth, sensitive, urban crooner and made him a staple of urban contemporary radio. Yet their considerable success was eclipsed by his songwriting and production work for other artists, which linked him with some of the biggest stars and hit singles of the decade (and not just in the realm of R&B). You'd be hard pressed to name a '90s hitmaker with a track record more consistently successful and versatile than Kenny "Babyface" Edmonds.

Mariah Carey Biography

Mariah Carey Biography Mariah Carey BiographyMariah Carey BiographyMariah Carey Biography

The best-selling female performer of the 1990s, Mariah Carey rose to superstardom on the strength of her stunning five-octave voice; an elastic talent who moved easily from glossy ballads to hip-hop-inspired dance-pop, she earned frequent comparison to rivals Whitney Houston and Celine Dion, but did them both one better by composing all of her own material. Born in Long Island, NY, on March 27, 1970, Carey moved to New York City at the age of 17 — just one day after graduating high school — to pursue a music career; there she befriended keyboardist Ben Margulies, with whom she began writing songs.

Celine Dion Biography

Rising from humble beginnings in the small town of Charlemagne, Quebec, Celine Dion became one of the biggest international stars in pop music history, selling more than 100 million albums worldwide. The youngest in Adhemar and Therese Dion’s family of 14 children, Dion grew up in an environment full of the inherent chaos and material austerity that comes with such a large working-class family. However, the Dion household was also one filled with love for children and music, and her parents and siblings were important figures in the early development of her singing career.

Celine Dion began singing in her parents’ piano bar when she was just five years old. By the age of 12 she had written one of her first songs, “Ce N’etait Qu’un Rêve” (”It Was Only a Dream”), which she recorded with the help of her mother and brother and shipped off to a manager named Rene Angelil, whose name they found on the back of an album by Ginette Reno, a popular Francophone singer. After weeks with no response from Angelil, Celine’s brother Michel phoned him and said, “I know you haven’t listened to the tape, because if you had, you would’ve called right away.” Angelil dug up the tape and called the family back the same day to set up a meeting with Celine. When the 12-year-old performed in his office in Montreal, Angelil cried and set in motion the process of making her a Quebecois, and later international star. He mortgaged his house to pay for her first two albums, producing a local number one single. In 1983 she became the first Canadian to have a gold record in France and she won a gold medal at the Yamaha songwriting competition in Japan. Her worldwide reputation was in the making, but success in the United States was not yet forthcoming.
