Christina & Britney's Return

Posted by sleekwaves Tuesday, 9 September 2008 0 comments




Wow wow wow, so much news from the VMA's already, and especially on the lip sync of Christina Aguilera in The MTV's birthday show. The clip is shown below, the begining of the clip (remix of Genie in A Bottle) seems painstakingly natural but when "It Keeps Getting Better" is followed it could seem natural for anyone to see her lip-sync, as stars from programme's in which singing live is the only option, Carrie Underwood (American Idol star) and Leona Lewis (X Factor winner) always perform live with shocking results and amazing talent. Much debate always goes on for whether lip syncing is just plain lazy or if there are valid reasons for it.

What do you guys say?

And the winner is...

Gossip Girl Series 1 Episode 1/Pilot
Filmed entirely in New York and based on the popular series of young-adult novels by Cecily von Ziegesar, "Gossip Girl" revolves around the privileged prep school teens on Manhattan's Upper East side and the anonymous blogger, Gossip Girl, who provides them with the latest rumors about their highly exclusive inner circle. In the series premiere, Gossip Girl is busy spreading the news that "it girl" Serena van der Woodsen has returned to Manhattan after a mysterious and self-imposed exile to boarding school. Serena's best friend, Blair Waldorf, has conflicted feelings about her friend's return since she has enjoyed being the Queen Bee during Serena's absence and might not be ready to relinquish her new position on the social ladder, not to mention the fact that she has always suspected there may be unspoken feelings between Serena and her longtime boyfriend, Nate.
