Nicki Minaj said that starships were meant to fly but her ‘Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded’ album has crashed and burned. In fact, the record has plummeted on the Billboard 200 and will soon exit the top 10 of the chart.
The 2012 Billboard Music Awards list of performers has been given a much-needed boost. Indeed, the show was sorely lacking an exciting headliner but Usher, Kelly Clarkson and Nelly Furtado will surely change that.
Now that Kelly Clarkson has wrapped her ‘Stronger Tour’, she is ready to resume the media promotion of her ‘Stronger’ album. As such, she ventured to Los Angeles to film the video for the project’s latest single, ‘Dark Side’.
Nicki Minaj’s attention-seeking antics on Twitter have done nothing to boost her dismal album sales. In fact, ‘Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded’ LP has continued its decline on the Billboard 200 and is even being outsold by Adele’s ’21′, which has been in the top 10 for 61 weeks.
Kelly Clarkson is truly a major Mariah Carey fan because she has honored the diva yet again. During her ‘Stronger Tour’ stop in Wenatchee last evening, the singer covered Carey’s classic ballad ‘Can’t Let Go’ and delighted her audience with the 1990s flashback.
Nicki Minaj and Madonna have been dominating the airwaves during the last few weeks as they promoted their latest projects. However, the supertsars and occasional collaborators experienced completely different results for their respective efforts.
Mixed reviews didn’t prevent Madonna and Justin Bieber from launching onto the Billboard charts with massive debuts. Really, it appears that the magnitude of their respective fanbases have propelled them to near unstoppable status.
Kelly Clarkson conquered Christina Aguilera’s ‘Beautiful’ so it was time to try a more difficult song. Teaming with her her former ‘American Idol’ comrade Tamyra Gray, the songbird accepted the challenge of singing Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston’s ‘When You Believe’ as she honored her favourite divas.
Kelly Clarkson is known for covering songs by her favourite artists during her shows so it was only a matter of time before she tackled a Christina Aguilera record. While performing a concert at the Taco Bell Arena in Boise last evening, the songbird accepted the challenge of singing Aguilera’s award-winning classic ‘Beautiful’.
Adele is patiently waiting to score her 24th week at the top of the Billboard 200 with her ’21′ album but until that occurs, she continues to enjoy strong sales in the runner-up slot. On the Billboard Hot 100, however, another female artist has enjoyed strong gains.
