17-year-old struggled with Sinatra tune; Big Mike also in the bottom twoThe “American Idol” quest for the tween audience suffered a couple of crippling blows this week. The first was the Frank Sinatra theme that forced the remaining five finalists to sing tunes that were old when their parents were young, and the second was that Aaron Kelly got voted off the show on Wednesday.

He’s even prettier than me! Will other people think he’s the female lead?” The 2 have not formally met yet, and already Rainie is worried that her own beauty is not up to par with his.
The latest issue of In Touch Weekly features a cover story that says Kim Kardashian is a talentless fame whore. Which raises an obvious question:
Gillian Chung and Joey Yung Cho Yi each recently purchased $27 million (HKD) homes at “Harbour One,” a new luxury apartment building complex developed by the Emperor Group. Why did Charlene Choi not purchase a home within the same building? Charlene explained, “I am currently helping my mother purchase a property. But she is very picky.”

Riding the success of his smash “Nothin’ On You,” B.o.B’s The Adventures of Bobby Ray debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart this week. Selling 84,000 copies, it’s a low topper. But I’m sure B.o.B will happily take the crown anyway. The Atlanta native is the first solo male act to have a debut hit No. 1 since Rick Ross’ Port of Miami did so in August of 2006.
