One of the possible anthems of the summer according to MTV was Lady Gaga's single "Alejandro" from her album (not re-release) "The Fame Monster". So, the official video for the single was released a while ago. Now, some famous youtubers had been making their own version of the video and some of them, also of the song, so here is one example: her name is La Coacha and she sure is pretty funny (and mexican), her spanglish version of "Alejandro" will sure make you laugh a lot... Here it is...
Alejandro - La Coacha
And if you haven't heard the original song, (putting aside that you aren't gonna understand the parody) you sure are missing some good tunes, so for all of you, here it is... The original Gaga's version of "Alejandro" from "The Fame Monster"...
After her latest worldwide smash hit "Waka Waka" which was the official theme for the 2010 FIFA World Cup, has became the most successful song that ever represented this kind of event and also became the fourth most watched video on Youtube, Shakira has decided to release new material!!
Her new work is titled "Sale El Sol" ("Sun Comes Out" in english) and to give us a taste of this, she has just released her first single which is called "Loca". At first glance, it's a bit different to all of her previous songs, which may cause that some people dislike it, but after hearing it about 8 times, I kinda love it.. So here it is.. Because at the end, you are the only one that can judge if you like it or not..
Shaki's Loca (English Version)
And in case you're interested.. here's the spanish version of the song... Shaki's Loca (Spanish Version)
And.. just to remember.. the official video for "Waka Waka (This Time For Africa)"..
At this moment, the ARTIST Lady Gaga is the most followed person in the whole Twitter-World! Right now she has 5,883,377 followers, which just show us how many fans she has because she's such an amazing inspirational woman! So once GaGa found out this.. she was so excited that released a message for all of us.. Check it here..
And for all of us that are hungry for new tunes.. Check this "possible" single for her new album.. It's called "Out Of Control" and.. it's just pleasure for our ears.. Check it..
If you remember I have written a previous post about this AMAZING song "Teenage Dream" by the gorgeous Katy Perry(REMEMBER HERE). By that time, we were waiting for her to release the official video, but guess what? Now we have it.. I know that it was released a while ago, and that's why I'm putting the Director's Cut which was released this week and it's a little bit.. sexier (Could you imagine?). So here it goes.. and also, check (i think) one of the most controversial songs in the future.. haha.. it's called "Peacock" so.. get ready after the video.. haha..
Now with the summer just ending, it's time to say goodbye to vacations and summer anthems (Bye Alejandro!!), even though we will never forget neither one of those, the point is that GaGa needs to release a new single and us her "little monsters" are expecting great things from that woman because she has showed us that she can do GREAT things, so.. the media is always whispering weird rumors about her, but since we only care about her music, it's time to decide.. which song should be her fourth single???
+First it was "Bad Romance" according to GaGa "the most revolutionary song of the decade" and who can deny that?? (VOTE ON MTV.COM TO VIDEO OF THE YEAR)
+Second, "Telephone (ft. Beyoncé)", honestly not even in my wildest dreams i would have imagine this two women together but.. they didn't dissapoint (VOTE ON MTV.COM TO VIDEO OF THE YEAR)
+Third "Ale-Alejandro", now.. this one didn't had a lot of air time on the TV because of its dark/anti-religious/homo/weird/etc quality.. but, who can get this song out of their mind?? I know I can't...
+And fourth.. should it be ... *"Monster" since it represents the title of the album it's pretty possible but remember she never released Fame from her previous work?
*"Teeth" honestly this is the song that I less like of GaGa 's repertoire even though I don't dislike it.. it's just not so good?
*Or "Dance In The Dark" (CHOOSE THIS ONE!!!! Just listen to this record and you will love it)
In this times, everything is a competition! One example is the fight for the most seen ever Youtube video and the contestants are: Lady Gaga with "Bad Romance" & Justin Bieber with "Baby". Even though in this moment Justin is the one that's winning with 248,766,948 plays, Gaga isn't as far from the victory with 247,195,191 so.. just make up your mind and watch a lot of times the video you prefer!! (If you're smart you'll choose Gaga!!!)
Lately i've been interested in knowing about famous artists and that's how i got to find Andy Warhol. I've been reading a little bit about "The Factory", when he was shot and how he was consumed by what society expected from him. In my search, i found this video that... is quite interesting.. i'm still not sure about its meaning but.. there's something intriguing about it.. i don't know...
Finally the official video for Katy Perry's latest single "California Gurls" has hit the web and it just seems so... tasty? Talking about all the candy obviously... So, it doesn't follow a storyline but it has some good moves and some girls that are even hotter than Katy (which.. i don't know if was such a good idea).
At the end, i don't why but the thing that she does with the cream, kinda reminds me of Lady Gaga you know? So, just see it for yourself...
Lady Gaga's latest creation has finally hit the web (like a week ago honestly, but sorry for the delay..). And i have to say that the video was "unexpected", a word which meaning Gaga has helped me developing in so many ways, like: when she bleed out to death in the MTV VMA that was "unexpected", when i saw her video for Bad Romance that was "unexpected", the latest time i've been surprised by her was when i saw that she ate a rosary beads chain in her new video for "Alejandro".
Although some may say that the video isn't really that "commercial", this time i truly believe that it's a piece of art (a while ago, i never thought i would accept that.. but she blew off my mind, really!). There seems to be a lot of histories between those 8 and something minutes, but the one my understanding got me to find was the fact that a dead ex-lover keeps on haunting a devastaded Gaga who turns to religion in order to forget her fallen love and when everything fails she decides to takes hands on the subject and eats a rosary beads chain and seems to die, maybe to find her lover again... Well.. that's what i understood from the video..
If anybody has another vision from the clip just let me know.. So here it is.. Alejandro!
A while ago, i was looking ideas for a speech and i found this video. I have to say that i've always have found Ellen DeGeneres as an amazing and extraordinary stand-up comedian, but i really didn't knew what she had been through, honestly i didn't care... but now i know that was wrong, because, as funny as she is, there's some dark past behind her and i really have respect for her since i saw this video. It's truly inspiring, and it also messed with my head (haha), since.. you may don't care but i'm actually in collegue and i'm still not sure about it... but anyways, that story may belong to another post... So, the video lasts almost 10 minutes, but believe me... you will be glad to have watched it.
Ellen DeGeneres at Tulane's 2009 Commencement Speech
If either you don't have time to watch the video or just simply want to remember some highlights of the video, here are some quotes from her video...
"I didn't went to collegue at all, and i'm not saying you wasted your time or money... although, look at me i'm a huge celebrity...".
"The most important thing is to be true to yourself..." .
"My idea of success is diferent... and yours will change".
"Don't try to be something that your not...".
"Be true to yourself, and everything will come...".
"Instead of showing your boobs, show them your brain...".
"Don't follow anybody's path, unless you're lost in the woods...".
"So, if you don't remember anything of what i've just said... just remember... You're gonna be okay, dum-dum-da-duh, just dance!"
The song of the moment (in my mind at least, since according to Billboard.com "this song has never charted", and if you don't believe me just scroll down and see it for yourself). As i was saying, i personally think this single has great potential... but maybe in a concert, in her tour, since it's full of rock instruments and creates and amazing enviroment for such an epic performance... just hope that when she gets to go on her tour, she really squeezes the quality of this song and leaves us with our mouths wide open! Here i leave you the official video from her single "Rockstar 101", it's sexy as hell... but, what else could we expect from her?
Rockstar 101 (ft. Slash) - Rihanna
And here is the only performance of hers (that i've seen) of the same song "Rockstar 101" in American Idol. They've never had so many good artists before (Rihanna, Black Eyed Peas, Miley Cyrus, Lady Gaga, etc), maybe i should start watching it more next season.. if there's such thing as a next season (bad ratings i've heard... and also Simon is leaving!).
