Adele Will Perform at 2017 GRAMMYs
Adele has joined the 2017 Grammy's list of performers. She will perform a song from her latest album, 25. Other artists who'll be performing include John Legend, Metallica, Carrie Underwood and Keith Urban.
Adele has won ten Grammys and is nominated for five more at this year's ceremony including Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Best Pop Solo Performance for Hello, Best Pop Vocal Album and Album of the Year for 25.
The GRAMMYs are coming to City, February 12th.
Adele performed last year at the Grammys and suffered technical difficulties. During a performance of "All I Ask" her microphone dropped onto a piano's keys and it threw off the sound system.
“We had the most complicated show on television. Period. End of story. With each musical performance, we change over the microphones, the wires... She did a great job and we certainly don’t like when those things happen, but those things happen sometimes.”
Adele told Ellen that she took it pretty hard and "cried pretty much all day" following the screw-up, adding:
“Next time I have any sound issues, I am going to start over... In fairness, I would have cried it it went really well... I always cry. I was so embarrassed...”
Jennifer Lopez Confirms Relationship With Drake
It's been officially confirmed: J-Lo and Drizzy are making new music together! Lopez opened up about her "working relationship" with Drake saying,
"We are... Well, we did! We did one song together! I don't know if we will do more. We will see!"
Back in December, rumors started flying that something romantic was going on between the two after Drake attended two of J-Lo's Vegas shows (back to back) followed by an intimate evening together... they also added fuel to the fire by sharing this image to their Instagram(s):
Kesha and Macklemore are Up to Something
Kesha is back home in Nashville doing her thing (singing) with a side of soul searching...
Check our more interviews like this on VICELAND's Noisey.
It's been five long years but a new Kesha album is coming.
Is she working with Macklemore? It sure looks like it!
Grammy award winning artist Macklemore shared this picture with a simple yet mysterious caption including a crystal ball and tiger emoji.
Kesha's posted a pic of a tiger to Instagram last week with the caption:
"I want cats to fill my 2017. I'm going to manifest cats."
Um. Okay! Maybe the two were just hanging out talking about their mutual love for cats?! The crystal ball emoji carrier more of a "something is coming" vibe as Zedd teased us with his Kesha collab, True Colors, over social media with the same emoji.
She's been teasing us with rumors of a new album which may or may not include cuts with rock band Eagles of Death Metal and a "Grammy award winning" artist... Hmm...
Ma-ck-le-more?? M-m-maybe?
SnapChat: Noel Gallagher in Ottawa
Noel Gallager's High Flying Birds play Ottawa. SnapChat story via "Amy Volume" on Friday, July 8th, 2016.
A dream come true! My favourite artist ever - live - in Ottawa! Wow! Great set.
IMO: The Party that was Amnesia Rockfest, 2016
Amnesia Rockfest 2016: wow. WOW. The (not so little) Music festival that could: DID. I am blown away at the massive improvements that were rumored to have been implemented. I got to see them and experience them in Montebello Friday, June 24th.
Pre-planning was made easy thanks to the Amnesia Rockfest app. There were loads of security, volunteers and on site staff who were always friendly and willing to help. Lines moved quickly and there were plenty of places to sit and/or rest. I saw a number of persons in wheelchairs & with walking aides in the crowd this year, too. I have a pretty crummy physical disability which can make festivals daunting. The effort put into site planning with accessibility in mind was obvious. Thank you, party planners!
I was absolutely blessed with an All Access Media pass. This was my first experience with such VIP access - I only found out towards the end that "All Access" means you can literally stand on stage while the band plays (Yah. Literally found out during blink-182's final few songs)! Next year, should I be so lucky, I will definitely take advantage of that perk for better pictures!!
Speaking of perks; the Oasis pass gave festival goers access to a POOL! On site!! While taking a refreshing dip (the first of many) I could easily hear The Used from the Budweiser stage. Didn't miss a second of the rock while keeping cool and staying energized.
Tips & suggestions to future concert goers: Save your pennies and splurge on a VIP package, wear comfortable shoes and sun protection (hat, cool clothes and sunglasses), bring along some cash and a positive attitude and you are GOOD 2 GO.
The beer was reasonably priced and having vendors with trays sell on foot through the crowds was GENIUS.
All staff I ran into at Rockfest this year (crew, security, vendors) were smiling, helpful and seemed like they were genuinely happy to be at a truly awesome happening.
Even the highways and roads to and from the Chateau and through Montebello were fairly "easy breezy".
Amnesia Rockfest, I don't know how you did it (Better planning? Consultation? Valuing the public's input? Extreme hard work and determination!?) - but you DID IT! This festival has significantly levelled up in my opinion. Years ago when I had experienced the "mess in Montebello", I swore I'd never EVER be back. Well, the rumors had me wondering if it COULD ever improve and curiosity (plus a solid line up) had me saying "Yes. Let's do this!" I am so so SO glad I took a chance and went. I'm already trying to plan ahead for next year - looks like the Chateau Montebello is already booked through til 2019... Now I truly understand why.
This year's lineup was my high school soundtrack; NOFX (killed it. My fave performance of the day) Sum 41, Against Me!, Billy Talent, the Used, Turbonegro and blink-182 were just a taste of the bands I watched all in the span of 10h at Rockfest.
