Nicole Scherzinger makes the earth move in Right There video with 50 Cent

Climbing the walls: The sultry singer shows off her fancy footwork for the track from her album Killer Love


As a former Pussycat Doll and Dancing With The Stars champion, Nicole Scherzinger is something of an expert in the art of throwing moves.

The 32-year-old singer is seen exhibiting her fine skills in the video for Right There, the track chosen from her debut album Killer Love to launch her solo career in the U.S.

It was shot just two weeks ago on the streets of Downtown Los Angeles and now the finished product has arrived.


Sliding sidewalks: Nicole Scherzinger looks incredible in her new music video Right There, seen here dancing on a moving pavement in a stomach-revealing crop top


Nicole exudes confidence and sexiness in the video and, thanks to some computer trickery, she even manages to make the earth move, so to speak, as she performs on sliding pavements.

Rapper 50 Cent also features - however it is only thanks to some clever green screen technology that has resulted in them appearing in the same shot.

The rap artist, also known as Fiddy, was not actually there when Nicole filmed the video and his segments have clearly been recorded separately.

Nicole, who has been rumoured as a possible host for the U.S. X Factor, wears an array of sexy outfits throughout, including slinky harem pants and a cropped vest top which shows off her honed stomach to perfection.


Collaboration: 50 Cent also features with the two appearing together thanks to some clever green screen technology


While she might not have the Pussycat dolls for company anymore, she is accompanied by a throng of female backing dancers who join her for some street party jamming.

Speaking about her album to MTV News recently, Nicole promised her fans plenty of empowering tracks.

She has worked with hit producer RedOne on the project, who has also collaborated with the likes of Lady Gaga, as well as a host of other big name hit-makers including The-Dream.


Backing dancers: Nicole may not have the Pussycat Dolls for company anymore but she still instigates an all-girl party


Hot moves: Nicole is currently launching her solo career in the U.S.


Nicole said: 'Well, I did a lot of the album with my producer RedOne and then I did sprinkles, other colours of the album with producers like Jim Jonsin and The-Dream and Tricky Stewart and Ne-Yo and I'm fortunate enough to have my boy 50 [Cent] and Snoop on the album.'

'So it's definitely got empowering, strong dance anthems and then I got an urban twist in there and some really good uplifting songs as well.'

In a recent interview, Nicole said she is no longer in touch with her former Pussycat Dolls bandmates.

Justin Bieber befriends bullying victim Casey Heynes

By ANDREA MAGRATH


No one will bully him now: Justin Bieber has befriended Australian viral internet sensation Casey Heynes


One is a superstar, idolised by millions of fans around the globe, and the other was, until recently, an unknown student from the western suburbs of Sydney, Australia.

But when a video of school yard bullying victim Casey Heynes fighting back against his tormentors went viral, he caught the attention of Justin Bieber.

The singer, currently on tour Down Under, tracked down Casey after hearing about his story and invited him to his Melbourne concert.


Support: Justin invited Casey, who became a worldwide sensation when a video of him fighting off bullies went viral, to his concert in Melbourne


Justin, who has been vocal in his campaign to stop bullying, has called Casey a 'real life hero.'

Bieber alerted his 9.3 million Twitter followers to the YouTube video of Casey being punched repeatedly by bullies before snapping and 'body slamming' his attacker to the ground.

Since it was posted online in March, the video has been reported on and discussed in newspapers and on television shows across the globe including the Daily Mail as well as TMZ, CBS and The View.

Despite the violent way in which he reacted, support for Casey, who says he has suffered daily verbal and physical abuse since primary school, has been widespread.


Rising star: The 16-year-old bullying victim introduced Justin's hit song Never Say Never


'When I first saw it on TMZ I thought, this is crazy, like I couldn't believe it, it's amazing,' 17-year-old Justin told Casey backstage.

'It shows everybody else that you have to stand up for yourself and you can't just take it.

'The first thing you should do is go tell someone, but then you might have to hit back, sometimes you have to so I think that was important for you, especially in that situation. I'm proud of you — and so many other people are.'


Meet and greet: Justin told Casey and his family, 'I'm proud of you - and so many other people are'


Bieber invited Casey, dubbed 'Casey the Punisher' onstage, where they hugged and Justin asked him to introduce his next song Never Say Never.

After the show Justin tweeted: 'Pretty special night tonight in MELBOURNE....surprised someone me and the team look up to. A kid with a lot of courage.

'This is Casey the punisher...a kid who stood up for himself against bullying. A real life hero.

He added: 'Well 2nite we tracked down Casey and his family and flew him to the show. Thank you Casey (sic).'


Fellow internet sensations: The singer, who rose to fame on YouTube, tracked down Casey and his family and flew them to Melbourne


In the 40-second video, the bully is filmed prodding Casey in the face and stomach while fellow students laugh and encourage him.

After taking the abuse for a period of time Casey suddenly snaps, picks up his smaller attacker and slams him down onto the concrete ground in a powerful wrestling move.


Fighting back: A video of Casey being punched in his western Sydney school yard before snapping and 'body slamming' his attacker against the ground has received worldwide attention


In an interview aired in March with A Current Affair, Casey says said he had never reacted like that before, but this time, 'Everything had built up over three years.
'All the anger came out of it.'

But he does not promote violent retaliation as a way of dealing with bullies. 'Try to walk away,' he advised. 'But if a fight starts, sometimes things happen.'

With one of the globes biggest stars in his corner, it doesn't look like Casey will be bullied again.

Supporting act: Corrina Durran, Jodi Albert, Kasey Smith, Leigh Learmont and Sharon Condon of Wonderland performed ahead of Westlife


And Wonderland made sure to steal some attention from the boy band by sporting skin tight leather trousers.

Former Hollyoaks star Jodi was joined on stage by her band mates Sharon Condon, Corrina Durran, Leigh Learmont and Kasey Smith.


Happy couple: Jodi Albert of Wonderland performed ahead of her husband and manager Kian Egan of Westlife


They performed their debut single Not a Love Song, which was released last month ahead of their debut album release this summer in June.

Kian helped Louis hold the open auditions and they are now co-managers of the band.

After over three thousand hopefuls auditioned in Dublin, the five girls were chosen and reportedly signed a six figure record deal with Mercury Records.

Wonderland also supported Westlife’s Where We Are Tour last year and will join the band throughout the rest of their current Gravity Tour.

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Alien: Lady Gaga just released this picture via her Twitter account of her looking emaciated and gaunt


She has made her name by being one of the most controversial performers in the world but Lady Gaga may be taking the shock factor a bit far.

The singer just released this photograph of herself with a clearly altered appearance as part of the promotion for her new album, Born This Way, which is released on May 23.

In the photo Gaga is sporting prosthetic cheek bones and painted eyebrows which make her appear gaunt and emaciated.


Shock jock: Lady Gaga, seen here last month in Paris, is known for her crazy costumes


The shocking photo was posted by the star on her Twitter page and is the first official posting regarding her highly anticipated new record.

Gaga's rail-thin frame has been the subject of much speculation since she rose to fame.

Last year the author of an unofficial biography, and ex-GaGa tour manager, David Ciemny, claimed the star was hospitalised six times in 2009 due to her starving herself to fit into her outrageous stage costumes.

Born This Way will come as her second major studio album.

Gaga, who is naturally a brunette, has become known for her platinum blonde locks says she misses her dark hair when she 'has to get a chemical hair cut because my blonde hair is falling out,' she told People magazine.

As well as continuing her tour, Gaga has been busy praying for those caught up in the troubles in Japan.

She has also been busy raising funds for the region, designing a prayer bracelet, the profits of which will go to a Tsunami relief fund.

In just 48 hours sales raised more than $250,000 for the charity.

She paired the bright dress and cardigan with a black fedora and black patent peep-toe heels which off set the outfit.

'I cried over all the nasty comments': How did an innocent wannabe like Rebecca Black become America's most reviled teenager?

By Daily Mail Reporter


-13-year-old says 'It feels like I'm being cyberbullied'
-She did not write the much-mocked lyrics

YouTube sensation: Rebecca Black was launched into the spotlight this week after her heavily auto-tuned song Friday was viewed more than 15 million times online


Rebecca Black became a YouTube hit for all the wrong reasons this week after her heavily auto-tuned song Friday was viewed more than 16million times online.

But the American teenager, who has been dubbed the worst singer in the world insists, she is talented - and says the fact that people remember her song means something.

Online critics have savaged the record, which is about a teenager getting ready for the weekend, but it is soaring on iTunes anyway.

The 13-year-old's mother paid $2,000 to the LA based Ark Music Factory - production company for aspiring teen singers - to get the song and video made.

The video was shot in her father's home, and friends and family were the extras.

Presented with two songs to potentially record, she chose 'Friday' - but she did not write the mocked lyrics.

Some cyberbullies have even told the teen she deserves to die.

Rebecca gave an interview to Good Morning America and said: '[The worst thing I've read was] I hope you cut yourself and I hope you get an eating disorder so you'll look pretty, and I hope you go cut and die.

'When I first saw all these nasty comments I did cry.

'I felt like this was my fault and I shouldn't have done this and this is all because of me. Now I don't feel that way.'

One Internet user wrote: 'Even deaf people are complaining.'
She also defended the song.

'I think that's an accomplishment. Even a person that doesn't like it, it's going to be stuck in their head,' she said

'That's the point of it, it's a catchy song.'

Her mother, however, was not so ready to forgive.

Dr Georgina Kelly told GMA: 'In all honesty, I probably could have killed a few people.

'But that probably would get me nowhere. Yeah, it makes me angry and upset.'
Kelly and husband Dr. John Black, are both veterinarians.

Make me a star! The 13-year-old's mother paid $2,000 to get the song and video made


The song has already spawned several covers.

Rebecca, who started vocal lessons when she was 10-years-old, sang the US national anthem on GMA in a bid to prove she could actually sing.

One of the song's producers said: 'She was actually in key.'

She added: 'I think I have talent on some level. I don't think I am the worst singer but I don't think I'm the best [either].'

'Those hurtful comments really shocked me,' Black, 13, she told the Daily Beast. 'At times, it feels like I'm being cyberbullied.'

Facing the critics: Rebecca went on Good Morning America and admitted that she isn't the best singer
And she did not write the words.


When presented with two songs, she chose Friday as 'The other song was about adult love–I haven’t experienced that yet.'

Remarkably for a girl so young and so attacked, she also defended herself and plans to continue pursuing her musical dreams.

'I decided not to give the haters the satisfaction that they got me so bad I gave up,' Black said, explaining why she refused to take the video off of YouTube.

Never give up: The aspiring singer, who lives in Orange County, performed the National Anthem on GMA in an effort to prove she can sing


Thanks to iTunes, she's profiting from the experience.

The money will go to her savings, her school theater program and Japanese relief efforts. 'I just want to be able to keep doing what I love, which is singing.'

Rebecca, from Orange County, in California, also told GMA how her dream is to duet with Justin Bieber.

She said: 'I have Bieber fever. I am in love with Justin Bieber.
'Just thinking about it gives me butterflies.'

And she sent a message to the teen pop sensation asking if he wanted to do a duet.

Te amo, Cupid Boy! Kylie Minogue kisses 'special man' Andres Veloncoso live on stage during Spanish show

By JODY THOMPSON

Come here, you: Kylie Minogue beckoned over boyfriend Andres Veloncoso for a kiss during her show in Barcelona


She's hinted lately that he may be the man she finally settles down with and has babies - and Kylie Minogue confirmed her deep feelings for boyfriend Andres Veloncoso with her most public display of affection ever.

The 42-year-old Spinning Around star was playing a date in 32-year-old Andres's home country of Spain when she beckoned him to the stage - and planted a kiss full on his lips.

Speaking in halting Spanish, she told the crowd at the Palau Saint Jordi in Barcelona: 'I'm so happy to have family here tonight, especially someone. My Cupid Boy.'


Love you back: Andres had been blowing kisses at his girlfriend of three years during her show in the city at the weekend


She then searched for Andres in the crowd of thousands and as he blew kisses towards her, the singer gestured to him to come and get the real thing.

he singer had earlier rather aptly performing her song Cupid Boy to huge video images of the hunky male model - who Kylie calls her 'special man' - during the date of her Aphrodite: Les Folies tour at the weekend.

Earlier this month, the star celebrated her five year all-clear following her battle with breast cancer - and hinted that marriage and babies with Andres may be on the cards


What a smacker: The Spanish crowd went crazy when Kylie demonstrated her love so publicly to her 'special man' - local boy Andres


She marked her cancer-free milestone in Milan after a gig there with her tour's creative directors Dolce & Gabbana, who designed all the costumes for it.

She'd earlier told Australian newspaper the Herald Sun: 'I feel like I’m back with all guns blazing...Obviously, it’s going to be exciting but it’s also going to be surreal and momentous and a bit scary.'

The singer, who has been dating Andres for three years, has previously voiced her concerns that she may not be able to have a baby following her battle with breast cancer.

But asked earlier this month whether she would ever think about surrogacy or adoption, Minogue told Grazia magazine: 'I do think about them and I would absolutely look into those options because children and family are very important to me. It's something in my mind.'


Look of love: Kylie celebrated her five-year all-clear from cancer earlier this month with Andres with a big party after her gig in Milan


Kylie, whose sister Dannii had a boy last year, recently said of having a baby: 'I would really love to be a mother, but I just don't think it can ever happen.

'After everything I've been through - the treatment for breast cancer - I may not actually be able to conceive.'

'Andres is a natural with children. We will just have to see but I’m not sure if that will be part of my future.'

But she continued: 'There’s more than one way to skin a cat. It’s important for women to know there are other options available, whatever means you have to use to have a family - if that’s your desire, go for it.'

And the star added: 'I have a very special man. I might get married, you never know...'

Why is Gwyneth trying to reinvent herself as a country music star?

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Singing sensation? Gwyneth Paltrow reminds us that she's now a music star in a new rock-inspired photoshoot


She's an Oscar-winning actress, mother, runs a lifestyle blog and has released her own cookbook.

Most would say Gwyneth Paltrow is quite the over-achiever. So why is the 38-year-old moving in on husband Coldplay rocker Chris Martin's turf?

After a film about a country music singer and two appearances on Glee, Gwyneth appears to have been bitten by the music bug... and she's just revealed she's in talks to sign a record deal.

And in case anyone was still unsure that she is now a rock star, Gwyneth has posed amongst guitars, a keyboard and old records in a new photoshoot.

The actress is interviewed by her good friend Faith Hill for the new issue of InStyle magazine, and talks about performing onstage with her pal Jay-Z, dance parties at her and Martin's London home, and ditching London for Nashville.

Gwyneth got to know Faith, 43, while working on Country Strong with Tim McGraw, the singer's husband. 'We've been friends for a year,' Gwyneth says of the country music star. 'But now we're soul mates.'



Country Strong: After starring in her new film as a country music singer, Gwyneth is in talks to sign a recording contract


While Miss Paltrow and her children Apple, six, and Moses, four, spent many nights at the Hill-McGraw household during filming in Tennessee, Faith was keen to know what goes on in Gwyneth's abode across the pond.

'I like having dance parties at my house and being super-goofy with my girlfriends,' Gwyneth says.

'We just play dance music like whatever is on the radio and then old stuff - Michael Jackson, disco - and new stuff; we mix it up. It's fun.'


'What's a typical Saturday night at the Paltrow-Martin house?' Hill asks.


'Well, last Saturday night, I made turkey meatballs and we all had dinner together, then put the kids to bed and watched a movie on Apple TV,' is Paltrow's reply.

'We always go out one night of the weekend, because it's nice for me to get out of the house. I cook so much during the week, it's good for me to have a break and eat something that I don't make, like sashimi or Indian food.'

And while Gwyneth and Chris, 34, make their home in London during the school year, Gwyneth reveals that she longs for her native America - and that she felt right at home in Nashville.

'I loved it. There's something about it here - it is so relaxing and everybody is so kind and I just loved it,' she tells Faith in the candid interview. 'Cut to me moving into your house.'

The Iron Man star was so enamoured with the music capital that she devoted two articles on her lifestyle blog GOOP to the city.

'London is great, but I miss America,' she adds. 'Nowadays, I feel like we're citizens of everywhere.'


Music aspirations: The actress, pictured on this week's episode of Glee, talks about 'dance parties' at her London home with Chris Martin and performing onstage with Jay-Z


Gwyneth, who took to the stage at the recent Grammys and Oscars, also reminisces about performing onstage with her good friend Jay-Z.

She says: 'I got onstage with him at the Royal Albert Hall [in 2006]. I stood in the back and sang with him. That was the night of my 34th birthday and I drank a bunch of champagne before going on just to get through it.

'It was also before I had any singing lessons. I was sooo nervous, but that was just for fun. I'm glad I did it.'

The full interview appears in the new issue of InStyle, on sale now.
