NKOTB Comeback?!?!

From People.com:

 After months of speculation and rumor, the Kids are coming back. A well-placed source tells PEOPLE exclusively that New Kids On The Block are indeed getting back together.

The band’s Web site, www.nkotb.com, which had been dormant, is now back up and running in anticipation of the official announcement, which the source says will be made in the next few weeks.

The site currently features a television graphic with a fuzzy, flickering photos of NKOTB in their heyday, and a link inviting fans to sign up for info.

The boy band, which made legions of tweens swoon in the early ’90s, selling more than 50 million albums, became a worldwide phenomenon before calling it quits in 1994.

Eighteen years later, they’re still “Hangin’ Tough.” The oldest “Kid,” Jonathan Knight, now a real estate developer, will turn 40 later this year. Since the band’s demise, former members Donnie Wahlberg, 38, and Joey McIntyre, 35, have seen acting success, while Danny Wood, 38, has worked as a music producer and Knight’s brother, Jordan, 37, has continued to record.

My fav NKOTB was Donnie. I have always had a soft spot for “bad boys.” Which NKOTB member was your fav? Don’t be afraid, go ahead, leave your mark…

Beyonce playing Etta James

Beyonce and Etta James012508_beyonceandettajames.jpg 

From AOL Black Voices:

Having achieved major success on the stage and screen as a singer and as an actress, Beyonce, who starred in ‘Dreamgirls’, will be singing again on the big screen for her next big role. While speaking to Cedric the Entertainer on his latest film, ‘Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins’, he mentioned to blackfilm.com that Beyonce has been cast to play famed singer Etta James on his next film, ‘Cadillac Records’.

The story is about Leonard Chess, the legendary founder of the South Side Chicago blues label Chess Records. The period piece follows the rise and fall of Chess Records, which launched the careers of such R&B greats as Muddy Waters, Etta James and Chuck Berry. Chess, who was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1987, scoured the South, checking out the various blues scenes and selling records from the back of his Cadillac. Cedric the Entertainer will play Willie Dixon, who wrote most of the hits records and was part of the famous company. One of his most famous songs was “Hoochie Coochie Man”.

Oscar winner Adrien Brody has also joined the cast to replace Matt Dillon as Leonard Chess, the founder of Chess Records. Dillon had to drop out of the project due to a scheduling conflict.

As previously reported, Jeffrey Wright will portray Muddy Waters in the film set in 1950s Chicago. Also new to the cast are Emmanuelle Chriqui, Columbus Short and Tammy Blanchard.

Darnell Martin (”Their Eyes Were Watching God”) penned the script and is directing. Sony/BMG’s Sofia Sondervan and Andrew Lack are producing.

According to Allmusicguide.com, James landed at Chicago’s Chess Records in 1960, signing with their Argo subsidiary. Immediately, her recording career kicked into high gear; not only did a pair of duets with her then-boyfriend (Moonglows lead singer Harvey Fuqua) chart, her own sides (beginning with the tortured ballad “All I Could Do Was Cry”) chased each other up the R&B lists as well. Leonard Chess viewed James as a classy ballad singer with pop crossover potential, backing her with lush violin orchestrations for 1961’s luscious “At Last” and “Trust in Me.” But James’ rougher side wasn’t forsaken — the gospel-charged “Something’s Got a Hold on Me” in 1962, a kinetic 1963 live LP (Etta James Rocks the House) cut at Nashville’s New Era Club, and a blues-soaked 1966 duet with childhood pal Sugar Pie De Santo, “In the Basement,” ensured that.

Ne-Yo Not Gay-O

Written by Cassandra on Jan 24th, 2008 | Filed under: Interviews, Ne-Yo

012408_neyo.jpg

Everytime Ne-Yo does an interview, the infamous ‘gay’ question is asked and he denies. Yet again, he is having to explain himself.

Honestly, when I first heard that there were rumors out there about me being gay I thought, Wow someone must really hate me. There’s nothing wrong with being gay, but I just couldn’t understand why someone would make up lies like that. I remember speaking to Jay-Z about it and he was like, ‘Look, man you haven’t made it until someone says you’re gay.”

Okay, so because I can respect a woman’s shoe game, and not to mention that I’ve bought a few pairs of shoes in the past for the women in my life, that makes me gay? That’s hilarious.”
