:: FkMkWss got us together on Taylor Swift’s ‘1989’ Is On Track To Sell One Million+ Copies This Week: Find Out How She Made History: “I bet you’re so mad right now because you hate her.”

:: Jay foresaw the future on Meghan Trainor Has Spent More Weeks At #1 On The Hot 100 Than Any Other Female In 2014: “I can see her as this year’s Carly Rae Jepsen.”

:: DavidSask offered his critique on Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett Will Promote ‘Cheek To Cheek’ With More Live Shows In 2015: “Not my type of music but good for Gaga branching out and getting some critical acclaim outside her genre. I do think Tony is looking tired and disinterested though so fewer appearances is best.”

:: S_am_S pointed out the the unspoken on Annie Lennox, T.I. And Pentatonix Go Top 10, But Slipknot Reigns On Billboard 200: “So are we just ignoring the fact that Betty Who’s album completely tanked?”

:: While Brandon Hall was obviously so over these pop divas on Rihanna Rocked Pasties And A Tom Ford Gown, While Miley Cyrus Opted For A Sheer Top At The AmfAR Gala: “Rihanna’s outfit is pure trash, I don’t care who designed it. It belongs in a dumpster. I simply can’t be bothered to have an opinion on anything about Miley anymore.”

:: Jay threw some shade on It’s Official. Selena Gomez Is Making A Long-Overdue Comeback In November!: “Please tell me the term “Godlena” does not really exist. I’m a huge Britney fan and it’s bad enough I see “Godney” everywhere. Selena Gomez doesn’t even deserve to be called that. She’s always been a singles artist and let’s face it, her films have flopped.”

:: Hannah wasn’t feeling Nicki Minaj‘s new single on Nicki Minaj Teams Up With Lil Wayne, Drake & Chris Brown For “Only”: Listen: “Sounds extremely uninspired, with the lyrics referencing her with Wayne and Drake just a ruse for attention. Also, the hook could have been amazing but it’s totally unmemorable.”

:: Lastly, DavidSask offered some advice on Imagine Dragons’ “I Bet My Life”: Listen To Their New Single: “A little more folksy this go around! I am kind of over these loud group chant choruses, let 2014 be the last of that for awhile please!”
