R&B BITES: BEYONCE'S PREGNANCY CONFIRMED // DANITY KANE'S NEW VIDEO CONCEPT // MADONNA'S SHITTY ALBUM SALES & MORE....

According to Hollyscoop, Beyonce's pregnancy has been confirmed by a close source of the couple. Reportedly, everyone who attended Bey and Jay-Z's wedding a couple of weeks ago knew that Beyonce was expecting the couple's first child. The wedding was rushed because of the pregnancy as well as "Beyonce's strong Christian beliefs".



Well, here is what they're reporting: "Beyonce is 100% pregnant, which is why the couple rushed their wedding." The source also told Hollyscoop that all the friends and family that attended the ultra private wedding were all aware that Beyonce was already expecting. Our source added that Beyonce is in her early stages, but don’t expect this star to come out with a confirmation statement anytime soon. The couple is pretty private about their personal lives--they still haven't even confirmed their wedding. [READ FULL REPORT] Sounds pretty much like the situation that went down with her sister Solange four years ago. The difference is, Beyonce isn't a teenager, has accomplished a high profile career, and has been in a secure relationship with Jay-Z for over 6 years now. A wedding and a baby was only the next step waiting to happen. How true this news may be is yet to be seen but if true, congrats.

It appears Diddy won't let poor marketing present itself a second time, as Danity Kane are set to film the video for the second single BAD GIRL next month in Los Angeles. Their latest album Welcome To The Dollhouse is now certified Gold, and there are many more hits that can be delivered.



In the video for Bad Girl, Aubrey, Aundrey, D. Woods, Dawn and Shannon will take on the divas of WWE Wrestling; Kelly, Layla, Maria, Melina and Mickey. The video will be directed by Melina (Beyonce, Jennifer Lopez, Ne-yo) and will debut this summer. That sounds like a pretty hot concept. So they're given the green light, but how long will it take for that green light to transition itself from red?

For over a decade, there has always been controversy between Mariah Carey and Madonna fans. And so, Madonna fans will be delighted to know that their Queen will end Mariah's two-week reign at no 1 next week. HOWEVER, Mariah lambs can also gloat because the legendary diva looks set to do a Janet Jackson with 'stingy' first week album sales with latest album Hard Candy. In fact, Madonna will leave Warner Bros without the sparks. She is predicted to sell only 275,000 and 300,000 copies in the first week of sales in America, despite getting the no 1 album.



In comparison with other modern day singers, Madonna's first week sales do not represent the pop icon that she is today. In fact, younger singers are KILLING her ass. Alicia Keys As I Am, sold 742,000 copies in its first week. Mary J Blige's Growing Pains sold 629,000 copies in its first week. Mariah Carey's E=MC2 sold 475,000 sold copies in its first week and Beyonce's B'Day sold 541,000 sold copies in its first week. Mariah's album has seen a 61% drop selling 182,000 copies this week. Also Leona Lewis's American Idol performance last week appears to have helped Leona's album sales. This week, the Bleeding Love singer saw a 1% increase selling a further 91,000 copies. Lyfe Jennings third album Lyfe Change is set for the no 5 position with predicted first week sales of 75-80k. What's even sadder is that the "Queen of Pop" will be making an appearance on BET's '106 & Park this Friday. Should Madonna hang up singing, yoga and crotch-thrusting for knitting and baking cakes?

British sensation Leona Lewis is rumored to be launching her own clothing range full of ethically sourced products to give fellow vegans more of a choice when stocking their wardrobes.



Whilst other R&B starlets Beyonce and Mary J Blige take great pleasure in defying PETA with their enjoyment of rocking the fur of dead bears, I think this is a good approach towards the Vegetarian lifestyle. It would definitely offer a broader range of fashion variety, for those who can't "bear" to wear, well, slaughtered animals. The chick doesn't even wear diamonds because she doesn't know how they've been sourced. If we all had that mentality, life would be very boring.

Another snoozefest is Jennifer Lopez's new TV show which will only focus on her career not her family life.



Jen's manager said: "The recent show Jennifer Lopez plans to produce for TLC is not a reality show. It’s a show that will track the creation, production and eventual launch of a new fragrance. Jennifer will appear in a creative, entrepreneurial capacity and will absolutely not feature her children and family life". I'm thinking, what's the point? Who's going to be interested in that? The one time Jen has the opportunity to resurrect her ailing career and we don't even get an insight into what motherhood will be really like for her.

Meanwhile, Jordin Sparks has told MTV News that her voice is almost healed and that she'll be back on tour really soon. In an enclosed email, she writes: "[The reports about the hemorrhage] were actually true. My left vocal cord was bleeding, and I knew I had to get it checked and take care of it. I got back from the doctor yesterday and it's almost all the way healed. I'm gonna take a couple more days just to be safe. I should be back on tour in a few more days!! I'll be alive and kicking ... and who knows, maybe my voice will be better than it was before!" [READ THE FULL EMAIL]



Something out there must not want Jordin and Alicia Keys to go on tour together because Alicia also had to cancel and reschedule a couple of shows due to vocal injury as well. I am glad Jordin is finally healing and that both girls will be able to tour together really soon.
