Mariah Carey is Out Of Hiding!

Since ceasing promotion in the U.S. of her much anticipated studio album, E=MC2, and avoiding public appearances after her marriage to comedian Nick Cannon, Mariah Carey is making her television debut on the Jimmy Kimmel Live show. The show will feature a live mini-concert where she will no doubtedly perform her current top 3 singles, "Touch My Body," "Bye Bye," and "I'll Be Loving You Long Time." The big question now is whether or not this legendary artist will also be giving an interview to address her new married life and rumors of trouble in paradise. The show will take place July 31, 2008 in Hollywood, CA.

Making The Tour in Los Angeles

Following the success of both bands' albums, Diddy had only one thing in sight for his music groups: a successful national tour. The tour, simply titled The MAKING THE BAND TOUR, ended with a bang as Danity Kane, Day26, Donnie Klang, and Bad Boy Recording Artist, Cheri Dennis, swept into the Wiltern Theatre in Los Angeles, CA. Danity Kane who was formed in 2006 after successful completing MTV's reality television competition, Making the Band 3, had toured with several headlining acts including, Christina Aguilera and Black Eyed Peas, but following their successful record sales (both their debut and sophomore albums went no. 1) a headlining tour of their own was a must. They are joined by Diddy's second group to be formed in front of the eyes of millions of Americans, Day26--an all-male R&B group whose album also debuted at no. 1--as well as the first Bad Boy artist to recieve a recording contract following the Making the Band competition.

The concert was a short 2 1/2 hours but the fans did not seem to mind. Cheri Dennis performed a short-but-sweet set getting the crowd pumped for the rest of the evening. Donnie Klang, who has yet to release a studio album, performed only 2 songs before leaving the stage. He later rejoined his fellow cast members, Day 26 to perform an acapella version of "Exclusive" with the group. Just before the Danity Kane took the stage, the one-and-only Diddy, surprises the crowd as he walks on stage to thank for the crowd for all their support, address the "bitchassness" in America, and to introduce his successful female act. Wearing doll-like outfits, appropriate for the theme of their recent album, Welcome to the Dollhouse, the girls glide across the stage showing the crowd that they are "Bad Girls." Their set is filled with new songs from their newest album, with only "Showstopper" being the only track included from their first album.

Pussycat Dolls Premiere New Single Exclusively to L.A. audience

The all-female pop group who burst onto the music scene as recording artists in 2004 is back in L.A. to premiere yet another hit. The Pussycat Dolls have decided to premiere their newest single, "When I Grow Up," on one of the most popular late night talkshows, Jimmy Kimmel Live, May 20, 2008. This is the girls' first studio recording since the release of their highly successful debut album, PCD, in September 2005, and will be featured on the groups' second studio album entitled, Doll Domination, due out September 16, 2008. The girls delivered a strong performance with their sexy dance moves and lead vocals from frontwoman, Nicole Scherzinger. Though they performed a short 3-song set of "When I Grow Up," "Don'tcha" and "Buttons," the girls proved that despite having a short set, they can get their fans pumped as the hundreds of fans screamed and sang wildly along to their hits. If that was not enough, the girls were not shy when it came to giving back to their fans. They each created fans, took photos, and signed autographs before leaving to prepare for their next show. Pussycat Dolls creator and manager, Robin Antin, was also present to oversee the performance and greet fans.
