COMING SOON: Three Unreleased Michael Jackson and Freddie Mercury Songs When rock and pop icons come together in a studio, the result can be nothing short of epic! Fans of the King of Pop and rock band, Queen should be very excited. Apparently, Michael Jackson and Freddie Mercury recorded three tracks in the 1980's that were never released to the public. Sadly, the songs weren't able to be enjoyed by fans before both legends' untimely deaths. But former Queen bandmate, Roger Taylor offers up this piece of news for fans. “We are now working on some never-before-released songs that Freddie made with Michael in the early 80′s. I’m not allowed to say too much about it but they sound incredible!” Little is known about what the songs are about, however, we were able to secure the titles of the upcoming tracks: "Victory," "State of Shock" and "There Must be More to Life Than This." These are sure to be hit singles! http://www.singersroom.com/news/6899/COMIN...e-Mercury-Songs

Fans show Janet Jackson: Miss You Much By Lauren Carter Wednesday, March 16, 2011 Just call it a reunion of sorts: Class of Rhythm Nation 1814. Janet Jackson’s show at the sold-out Wang Theatre last night didn’t really feel like a run-of-the-mill concert. It was more like reconnecting with the best friend you haven’t seen in years, or sipping a glass of wine and slipping on a pair of pajamas — sexy pajamas, of course — after a stressful day. Except with a lot of lights, wardrobe changes, backup dancers and an eight- piece band going full-force. Jackson’s 105-minute set as part of her “Number Ones: Up Close and Personal Tour” was a raucous affair that had grown men shrieking and singing like they were teen girls at a Justin Bieber concert, with a staggering lineup of hits such as “Miss You Much” and “Nasty” that likely served as the coming-of-age soundtrack for most in attendance. Images of the pop icon and clips of her acting exploits flashed onscreen during wardrobe changes, and it hardly felt like stalling. Janet-as-technician oozed whichever emo- tion the song at hand demanded. Her voice — especially during a ballad segment that included “Let’s Wait Awhile” and a gorgeous “Again” — held up well live, and she nimbly juggled the demands of both crooning and choreography. Restrained movements and a focus on vocals at the outset gave way to an all-out dance onslaught during “If,” “Rhythm Nation” and “Scream,” when she rightfully deferred to her backing tracks while recreating the signature moves from her videos. At times — particularly during an opening blitz that included “Pleasure Principle,” “Control,” and “Feedback” — Jack- son appeared fierce and determined, her short hair slicked down, her android bodysuit hugging every curve, a steely glint in her eye ready to ward off any would-be detractors. During songs such as “Alright” and “Escapade” she morphed to playful and charming, flashing the signature smile that could melt the heart of Mr. Freeze himself. “Together Again” seemed as much a promise to fans as to late older brother Michael, as Janet paused, fought back tears and pointed to the sky as childhood images of the pair filled the screen behind her. Save for a couple of shout-outs to Boston, 44-year-old Jackson made little between-song chatter. Perhaps she wanted the songs to speak for themselves. It made sense that Jackson chose Mindless Behavior to open the show, as the all-male teen foursome combined slinky dance moves and explosive r & b reminsicent of Jackson herself. http://www.bostonherald.com/entertainment/...p;position=also

^ she looks great! Janet Jackson: The Blast Interview By Eiko Watanabe Having sold more than 100 million records worldwide, five-time Grammy award winner Janet Jackson one of the most well-known pop and R&B artists of all time. With her countless hit songs like “Together Again,” “Rhythm Nation,” “Miss You Much,” and “All for You,” Janet is currently on the road. But it’s a little different this time. In her “Number Ones: Up Close and Personal” tour, she strongly focuses on the connection between the fans and herself at shows. The tour also coincides with her recently released biography last month. Despite the busy schedule, Jackson kindly sat for an interview with Blast about her long journey as a fearless entertainer. BLAST: You are currently on the road with Mindless Behavior. How is the tour going so far? JANET JACKSON: Being onstage, performing for my fans is always fun for me. I get so much energy from them and it is great to be on tour. I talked with the kids from Mindless Behavior over the phone a few years back, and fell in love with them. I decided to have them open for me after seeing them on YouTube. They are not on the entire tour with me, but I am excited to have everyone in New York get to know them. They are so talented. BLAST: For this tour, the venues are relatively smaller, compared to the ones where you’ve performed in your previous tours. Also, you only perform your ‘number one’ tunes this time. Is there any reason behind all these decisions? JJ: I was at Radio City Music Hall for a private performance last year. It was so much fun. While I was on stage, I could look out and see the faces of everyone in the audience. All I could think of during the show was “this is exactly how I wanted to do my next tour, up close and personal.” I am excited to be back in Radio City Music Hall for the public dates. I just put out two CD’s from the “Number Ones” collection and that is why I have chosen the set list. The fans are really enjoying it and so am I. It has been a lot of fun! BLAST: What can we expect to see at your shows during the current tour? Is there any surprise? JJ: This tour is not about special effects. It is just me and my fans. I have been doing things a little different in each city. This show is a love affair between me and the fans. BLAST: You’ve released 10 studio albums so far, and even your recent greatest hits compilation album, Number Ones, has 34 tracks. Which song do you love performing the most? JJ: I really can’t answer that. I love to sign all of them. My music is so personal to me. I write about what is going on in my life at that time so whenever I am singing these songs, they bring back special memories. BLAST: Looking back at when you released your self-titled debut album in 1982, what do you think has driven you to keep going at full speed for so long in the music industry? JJ: Though singing was never my first choice, I am very grateful for the success I have had. I am a very creative person and I love creating…music, tours, acting roles. I am having too much fun to quit. Besides, I still have so much more that I want to accomplish in my life and career. BLAST: A lot of musicians are big fans of yours, and some of them grew up watching you perform. You have been a huge positive influence on the younger generation of musicians. JJ: I am grateful to hear that. The way was paved for me by women like Lena Horne, Dorothy Dandridge and Diana Ross. I hope that in some small way, I have been able to do that for others. BLAST: Can we get excited to listen to new music coming from you? JJ: Absolutely. Though I don’t know what it will be yet, I plan to go back into the studio later this year. BLAST: You released your biography book “True You: A Journey to Finding and Loving Yourself” on Feb 15. What was the main message that you wanted to convey to the readers? JJ: I want readers, specially the kids, to know that they are perfect just the way they are. If there was a book like it when I was a kid, I would have read it. There was nothing that I really liked about myself, it was like, I was all alone, and I felt like there was nobody I could talk to. I finally did talk to someone and only then did I feel like things started to get better. It has been a long road, but I am happy with my life now. BLAST: In the book, you talk about your struggles with weight loss, self-esteem, and relationships. Those issues are not uncommon and there are so many people out there who are not able to like themselves. If you are going to give them advice, what would you say? JJ: I talk a lot about this topic in “True You.” If I had to say just one thing, I recommend that people find someone that they can talk to about anything. BLAST: The book recently ranked number one on New York Times Bestseller list. JJ: I was told that we ranked in that position. I was so surprised but grateful to everyone that supported “True You” and made that possible. BLAST: Even though you’ve gone through a lot of struggles including what you wrote in your book, you always look fearless and shining onstage, which encourages a lot of people. How do you transform all the pain into something creative and positive through music? JJ: Whenever I am creating my music, or a tour, I am inspired by whatever is going on in my life. It is very healing and rewarding to take those experiences, the good and the bad, and create something that is positive. I hope that the fans can relate to what I create. BLAST: What’s the next project that you will work on after this tour? JJ: (laughs) I have never been great at multi-tasking, but I am working on that. I am having fun with everything that I am doing right now. The CD will be my next project at the moment. Janet declined to answer questions about her brother, Michael Jackson. Janet plays Tuesday at the Wang Theatre in Boston. She plays Mohegan Sun Arena in Connecticut on Wednesday before a Friday, Saturday, Monday stop at Radio City Music Hall in New York. http://blastmagazine.com/the-magazine/ente...last-interview/

I would think so, it make much more sense to me. Judge delays criminal trial for Jackson doctor By ANTHONY McCARTNEY The Associated Press LOS ANGELES — Defense lawyers lost their bid Wednesday for a speedy trial for the doctor charged in Michael Jackson's death when a judge postponed the case until May. Superior Court Judge Michael Pastor made the move after repeatedly sparring with defense attorneys for Dr. Conrad Murray about why they had not turned over more notes on witnesses and other potential evidence to prosecutors in advance of the trial. Pastor announced the delay after meeting behind closed doors with Murray and lawyers on both sides. He said initial screening of jurors will begin as scheduled March 24 with the distribution of questionnaires, but opening statements will not occur until at least May 9. Murray, who has been seeking a speedy trial because of financial difficulties, said he understood the need for the delay. He has pleaded not guilty to involuntary manslaughter. The case is expected to feature testimony from several experts, as well as from people who were in Jackson's rented mansion on the day he died. Prosecutors contend Murray gave the singer a lethal dose of the anesthetic propofol, which is normally administered in hospital settings. One of Murray's defense attorneys, J. Michael Flanagan, has said one possible defense is the singer drank propofol, which is generally given through an IV drip. http://www.accessatlanta.com/celebrities-t...ial-857948.html <_< this is aggravating, they keep dragging this out, that doctor should have his tail between his legs.
