Alicia is one hot mami. The singer was on the show to perform her latest new single Teenage Love Affair.

Leona Lewis has been really busy promoting latest album Spirit down under. She attended a press conference at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Australia yesterday:

Where's your shoes, chick? Her other British counterpart Joss Stone has started a very interesting trend it seems.

Whitney Houston didn't want her pictures taken when she performed at the 4th Annual Plymouth Jazz Festival Tobago this weekend, but here's a couple anyway:

And the performance to go with it. Just horrible. It didn't sound like Whitney Houston, the powerhouse singer who use to send chills down your spine but more like a karaoke singer trying to sound like hey-day Whitney. She was out of tune for the most part and sounded hideous. The voice just isn't there anymore. I'm seriously beginning to have major doubts on a successful comeback. I hope she can get it together, seriously, because this just isn't cutting it.

Estelle had an NY album release party for album 'Shine', this week as well as appeared on MTV's Total Request Live yesterday to promote it:

The album was released yesterday. I liked it but not enough to buy it. Still, I hope she gets decent first week sales.

Bad Boy artist Cherri Dennis attended the Hip-Hop Summit: Get Your Money Right! at Johnson C. Smith University in North Carolina this past weekend:

For once in her life, she looked decent but I'll always hate the numerous tats all over her body.
