Reality television’s newest singing competition, Duets, premiered on ABC last night (May 24), though chances are you didn’t watch it: the show debuted with an average of 6.7 million viewers. (That’s nearly half of what the debut episode of NBC’s The Voice earned last year.) Are these disappointing figures due to a lack of promotion, or a lack of interest, as TV is already over-saturated with people singing and judging singing? (We wouldn’t be surprised if people need a breather from singing competitions as American Idol ended its 11th season on Wednesday night.) More »

Phillip Phillips wasn’t the only one realizing his dreams on Wednesday night’s American Idol Season 11 finale. Top 3 finalist — and our not-so-secret favorite from this cycle — Joshua Ledet made a triumphant return to the Idol stage alongside “the biggest inspiration of [his] life” Season 3 winner Fantasia Barrino. And whoo boy was that inspiration apparent as the two soul powerhouses let loose on “Take Me To The Pilot”, turning Elton John‘s 1970 B-side into an old-school gospel revival. It was something like a family act, Fantasia in a form-fitting sequin catsuit and Josh in a iridescent cream blazer, screaming in call-and-answer to one another from across the crowd. See if you can’t resist clapping along with Jennifer Lopez and Randy Jackson, or having a good chuckle at the downright beffuddled-looking Scotty McCreery at the 2:46 mark.

Football player Donald Driver was crowned the winner of the 14th Season of Dancing With The Stars last nightand besides his ecstatic victory dance, the finale’s other must-see moment was Kelly Clarkson‘s performance. The pop star, who is now part of the ABC Family as a mentor on new singing competition show Duets, busted out her singles “Dark Side” and “Stronger (What Doesn’t Kill You)” as dancers got busy on the dancefloor. For those wondering if Kelly would ever compete on DWTS, don’t bet on it: “I just couldn’t compete with anyone,” she says, wowed by the phenomenal dancing talent. (As evidenced by her cute-and-dorky moves in her “Stronger” video, she’s not just being modest.)

Kelly Clarkson’s Stronger is out now on RCA. Purchase it on eMusic.

Gossip Perform “Move In The Right Direction” On ‘Letterman’: Watch

Gossip‘s new single “Move In The Right Direction” is an positive-minded, and positively catchy, dose of pop perfection, and perhaps their best bet at having a hit here in the US. (Their only previous charting single was in 2009 with “Heavy Cross”, which peaked at #107 on the Hot 100.) We have faith, and the group’s performance of their song on Letterman last night can only help to prove this trio has got the power. David Letterman already seems to think so, as he invites them to perform at his house on Father’s Day. That’s certainly a better gift than another tie.

Gossip’s fifth studio album A Joyful Noise is out now on Columbia. Purchase it on eMusic.

When Justin Bieber hit up The Ellen DeGeneres Show today, he had some very important business to take care of. No, it wasn’t performing “Boyfriend” — though he did do that, as well. The Bieb announced that he’s going on a 45-city trek across North America this coming fall and winter.

The Believe Tour kicks off on September 29 at Glendale, Arizona’s Jobing.com Arena and will progress through early December. Then Bieber has almost a month off for the holidays before his jaunt picks back up in Salt Lake City on January 5. Things will finally wrap up on January 26 at Miami’s American Airlines Arena.

Watch Justin perform “Boyfriend” above, then catch the full list of Believe Tour Dates (which makes us tired just glancing at it), plus Justin’s high school graduation on Ellen, below. More »

As a guest on The Ellen DeGeneres Show today, Katy Perry was in the presence of one her idols: Alanis Morissette, who was on the set to perform her new single “Guardian”. Ellen wrangled in Katy, who apparently didn’t need much coaxing, to introduce the Canadian pop-rock icon. “Ellen’s next guest has sold over 60 million albums and is one of the reasons why I became a songwriter,” Perry said. After Alanis’ performance (which was flawless, we might add), Katy ran up and hugged her, and the two shared a kiss. Awww — we just love pop comaraderie.

Morissette’s eighth studio LP Havoc And Bright Lights is due out in August.

Mere days after Katy Perry‘s ex Russell Brand sat across from Ellen DeGeneres and talked about how he was very happy being married to the “Wide Awake” singer, Katy herself hit up The Ellen DeGeneres Show to promote upcoming 3-D film Katy Perry: Part Of Me.

“I thought it was important for me to show everything in between,” Perry, who got married during the making of the documentary, told DeGeneres. “I think sometimes people think we’re perfect. And we know we’re not perfect at all. I think it’s important to start breaking down the idea that to achieve your dream you have to always be perfect or flawless or live in some kind of fantasy world. So that’s why I decided to put everything in the film, in the most tasteful way.” More »

Before Cee Lo Green and his reunited Goodie Mob crew physically took to the MGM Grand Stage during their “Fight To Win” performance at the Billboard Music Awards, a one-legged dancer in military garb arrived on crutches and proceeded to wow the audience with jaw-dropping moves. Then a wall was lifted and the quartet, decked out in all white, belted out their new inspirational new single.

Afterwards — and keeping with the “fight” theme — Cee Lo yelled, “Yo, Billboard Awards — get your asses up and celebrate the life of MCA!” The group then launched into a rowdy cover of Beastie Boys‘ breakthrough hit “(You Gotta) Fight For Your Right (To Party)” as a tribute to the late Adam Yauch. (Really, it’s all about Carrie Underwood singing along to every word in the audience.)

On one hand, we were glad to see Donna Summer honored at last night’s Billboard Music Awards following the disco diva’s death at age 63 last week. But unlike the Beastie Boys and Whitney Houston tributes, the one for Summer was cut way too short by a commercial break. (Even Bee Gees member Robin Gibb, who passed away yesterday, got a full moment of silence.)

At any rate, click play above to watch a clip of Natasha Bedingfield singing Donna’s Academy Award-winning Thank God It’s Friday soundtrack hit “Last Dance” as photos of the disco legend are flashed behind her.
