And just how did our readers react to all these pop happenings? Read on below!
:: Brandon Hall learned something he never knew before on The Ting Tings Go Unplugged With “Hands” For BBC Switch: “I never noticed how lovely Katie’s voice was. This was a great performance.”
:: Trey was on the other side of the lines, however: “Ehh you people are taking it way too far. Its good to have both the bubblegum-pop and stylish pieces. But I really think that the people behind this kid are trying to bite off Bieber.”
:: Celebrity#1GirlFan detailed her addiction on Ke$ha Returns Feeling “Sleazy”: “I have to say I like all of Keisha’s songs, but this is by far my favorite one… I love this song. This is the 11th time I have listened to it today… Can’t get tired of it.” [Yes, dear—but this is Ke$ha we’re talking about.]
:: Bethp88 raved on Critics React To Kanye West’s Runaway: “Theres only one word that I can use to describe Runaway – Enchanting.”
:: Even John Doe weighed in: “Personally, I have to say that I expected something that bared more substance with all the hype. I think that Kanye west should have taken more time to put everything all together; From the dialogue, to the directing and editing. I don’t see the ‘Genius’ factor that so many are talking about.”
