Beyonce Pregnant?

Posted on May 1st, 2008 in Solange, Live Nation, Beyonce, Jay Z by lalate

Beyonce

Is singer Beyonce Knowles pregnant?For a week, chatter online has been asking whether Beyonce is pregnant. Now sites today are claiming that the singer is in fact pregnant. No confirmation yet from the singer or from her husband Jay-Z.

Much the chatter has stated that her wedding appeared to the public as rushed and low key. And that’s the reason that someone is pregnant?

Don’t expect any word from the couple that still have not officially acknowledged they are married.

Sister Solange Knowles, highly covered here on LALATE, is set to drop her incredible album in a coming of weeks, while Jay-Z recently signed a lucrative concert deal with Live Nation.

Larry Rudolph Britney Spears in Recording Studio for Fun

Posted on April 17th, 2008 in Live Nation, Larry Rudolph, Rock the Cradle, Jamie Lynn Spears, Britney Spears by lalate

Britney Spears in Recording Studio


The man who helped make Britney Spears, her former manager Larry Rudolph, says that Britney Spears was in the recording studio this week.
But it was only for fun.

“We went into the studio, but it was just for fun – nothing more,” Rudolph tells American magazine US.

Spears went into a Burbank studio on Monday and Tuesday, played the piano, and just had fun to get her creative juices flowing.

Rudolph currently produces the MTV’s series Rock the Cradle, “are not at the stage where they are talking business yet,” and the studio visit is not part of doing work says US Magazine.

LALATE first broke to you earlier this month that Rudolph on reported urging of dad Jamie Spears began retalking with Spears despite the two’s previous business split.

Honestly, our guess is you should expect a new album from Spears to drop in the immediate future and then Spears taking both albums on tour.

What if Spears could tour with Live Nation? How much $$$$ would that be?

How does $150 million over 10 years sound to you?
Apparently it might sound very nice to Jay-Z right now, who reportedly is close to inking a deal with Live Nation for that amount.

The Jay-Z deal will reporting give Live Nation (which lost $12 million last year) a stake in almost every aspect of the rapper’s career and be the biggest deal for Live Nation yet, beating previous deals for Madonna, U2, the Jonas Brothers, and others.

Every magazine is rushing to report on this story tonight including the New York Times, Wall Street Journal and others.

How will shareholders of Live Nation respond tomorrow? Take a guess! …
