Britney Spears has premiered her new video for her latest “Femme Fatale” single, I Wanna Go, and you can watch it below!
The video, directed by Chris Marrs Piliero, has the pop star standing on top of a car and wielding a microphone as a weapon against the paparazzi who follow Brit’s every move in real life.
Check out the full video for ‘I Wanna Go’ below!
Adam Levine saved Casey Weston over his initial gut choice of Jeff Jenkins on Tuesday night’s semi-final episode of The Voice and then coached her into a very controlled rendition of I Will Always Love You – a song covered by two music legends, Dolly Parton and Whitney Houston.
Levine and Weston butted heads in rehearsals: He wanted her to stay away from the iconic versions of the song and create her own and stopped her several times to make sure she stayed on track. Weston said: “I am not trying (to be Whitney). I am just trying to be Casey and sing the way I know how to sing.”
The judges loved her. Blake Shelton gave her a back-handed compliment: “I never expect you to blow me away, but you always do!” Levine said: “This performance proves that our arguments pay off, because you were amazing, and thank you!”
Vicci Martinez ended The Voice Tuesday night (June 21) with a show-stopping rendition of Florence and the Machine’s Dog Days Are Over.
Pounding two drums and sporting an ’80s white outfit and a big pompadour-type hairdo, she got a standing ovation from the crowd.
As for Vicci’s Coach Cee Lo Green, he said: “I’m so excited for you, I’m sitting on the edge of my seat. You’re right, the dog days are over for you, the future is so bright for you, my darling!”
UPDATE: All the videos of the performance have been pulled off of YouTube. But you can hear it in the video below:
On tonight’s semi-finals competition of The Voice, it was the pros who stole the show.
Frenchie Davis put her larger-than-life voice and persona into her rendition of Madonna’s Like a Prayer on Tuesday’s (June 21) The Voice.
Cee Lo Green called her his “soul sister throwing down.” Adam Levine simply professed his love for Davis.
But Blake Shelton had the best line of the night, calling Davis’ rendition a big middle finger to anyone who ever doubted Christina Aguilera‘s save of the musician last week. Aguilera said: “That took some lungs and breath, and power and control. You got it … All of that.”
Watch her performance for yourself:
On June 21st episode of The Voice, Xenia brought her undeniable unique tone and understated style to The Man Who Can’t Be Moved. Blake Shelton coached her into putting her own spin on the song.
Javier Colon‘s rendition of Fix You by Coldplay on Tuesday’s The Voice proved once again that this guy will be in the finals come week.
During Javier’s performance he finally took off his hat. Blake Shelton said: “I’m so pissed off that I wasn’t over there to catch that hat because the son of a bitch is gonna be worth a lot of money.”
Cee-Lo Green said, “Wonderful song choice. Chris and Gwyneth are both friends of mine.”
“I’m Cee-Lo. I know celebrities,” Adam Levine interrupted.
Watch Javier below:
Dia Frampton won the judges over with her rendition of R.E.M.’s Losing My Religion performed during the second half of The Voice elimination show Tuesday June 21.
Frampton had already wowed us when she performed Kanye West’s Heartless earlier in the season–a rendition which turned into a top 20 song in iTunes sales.
Her coach Blake Shelton joined the praises by joking that he is worried Frampton will release a song and blow his songs off the charts because she is that good. After a standing ovation, Shelton said: “That’s what this show is about. A girl stood out here on this stage an performed and left her heart and soul on the stage. That’s what you’re supposed to do and you do it every time.”
NOTE TO SELF: When in Austin, TX, leave my phone at home before going to see a movie. Duly noted.
