Catching Up

Basically, over the last few days, there's been a few pieces of news that I've thought "I should put that on my blog," but then I've looked at the packing that needed doing, and I forgot. Needless to say, the packing didn't get as done as it should've been, and a day before moving out, I am slightly panicking. But that's another story. Anyway, this post is to quickly catch up on things that have been missed. Apologies if there's been anything missed.

1) Katie Holmes has filed for divorce from Tom Cruise. Obviously the Daily Mail is now full of speculation as to how much Katie will get, but that's not a surprise. This news was a bit of shock for me, as they have only been married 5 years, and I never noticed any stories of things going downhill (then again, I might've missed that...).

2) Adele is pregnant! My friends was especially excited about this, and I think it's brilliant news for Adele. Although it has made me wonder what her next album will be about. The trials and tribulations of motherhood?

3) This is a few days old now, but Spice Girls have launched their musical 'Viva Forever!'. It will open at The Piccadilly Theatre, and is written and produced by Judy Craymer and Jennifer Saunders. I'll let the videos below tell you the story, but I'm personally a bit unsure on how good it will be. I am in no way doubting the comedy genius of Jennifer Saunders, as I'm sure she's written something great, but I have such high hopes for this, and I don't want to be disappointed after my childhood years of being a HUGE Spice Girls fan. It's a can't miss for me, and I'm sure for many girls my age too. (P.S two of the videos below are pretty much the same, but I thought I'd put both incase you wanted to see both).

Sorry this isn't more interesting/well written/more full of opinion and all that, but as you can probably guess, I still have packing to do. WOOHOO.

Video of the Day - Lana Del Rey - National Anthem

Decided to make a 'Video of the Day' thing, since Lana Del Rey has released a 7 minute video for latest single 'National Anthem.' This is one of my favourite songs off the album, so I'm glad it's being released. The video features A$AP Rocky, as they play the roles of John F. Kennedy and his wife. I won't spoil any more of it for you, so have a watch, and feel free to let me know what you think.

Katy Perry and The Killers

Finally got myself a spare moment to do a brief update here. Firstly, here is Katy Perry's video for new single 'Wide Awake.' Bit strange, and I'm not quite sure what's going on, but what else did we really expect?

Secondly, The Killers have released an album trailer for 'Battle Born.' They're not giving much away, but it sounds like it's going to be very good as per usual. I personally can't wait.

A longer update is due, and I'll try to do it in amongst packing up my uni room and panicking about packing for Japan next week.

Usher - Scream

Yesterday, Usher released the much-anticipated video for his latest single, 'Scream.' The video is filmed at a New York show of Fuerza Bruta ( http://fuerzabruta.net/). I first saw this on America's Next Top Model, and it is pretty cool. Youtube it or look on that link and you'll see for yourself.

Anyway, here's the song. I feel a bit wrong when I sing along to it, but it's just too catchy.

Coldplay - Princess of China

I went to see Coldplay last night, and they were absolutely amazing, as usual. If I've got a chance these next few days, I'll do a quick review, but in short, everything was so perfectly planned to make more than just a concert - it was a show. From the flashing wristbands to Coldplay and the songs/performance themselves, I couldn't fault it. Yes, I did almost cry at one point. I think it was even better than the Wembley show, and they never disappoint.

Anyway, yesterday they released the video for 'Princess of China,' featuring Rihanna. And here it is:
