Forever ago (ok, March), Idolator featured links to selected news items that seemed to merit attention, but perhaps not a post of their own. Playing into recent criticisms of the music-blog format, here are three press releases that seem notable, yet not notable enough to blow out into its own post.

Nelly Partners With ZizZazz Explosive Energy Mix: His next album may never actually come out, but when Nelly’s busy promoting its non-existent release he enjoys a little ZizZazz, a “product that definitely fits [his] lifestyle”.

Taylor Swift Announced As Venus Embrace “Goddess of Summer”: Swift’s official beauty tips as “Goddess of Summer” include wearing sundresses and shaving your legs. Thanks, Taylor!

Warner Music Group Exec Leaves Company to Run Music Based Social Networking Site: Dan Pelson, former Senior VP of Global Consumer Marketing at Warner Music Group, is fronting a new site, uPlayMe, which matches people up by shared musical taste, combining the crashing-my-computer widgetry of last.fm with the people I don’t actually care to be friends with aspect of Facebook. Hey, if there’s Scrabulous, I’m in.
