And the performance of the night goes to….. Jennifer Hudson.  Simply perfect.

2011 is nearly over… and Emeli Sande is just getting started.  Coming in early 2012, the incredibly talented songwriter (Leona Lewis, Cheryl Cole) & singer will release her first studio album, Our Version of Events.  Though born Adele Emeli Sande, the Scottish singer stage name is ‘Emeli’ due to the high success of UK singer Adele.  She felt that Adele had ‘taken the name’ and didn’t want to compete with that.  Her second single, Daddy, comes after her recent #1 UK Chart Topping success with Read All About It.  Expect more from this rising artist next year!

Painfully beautiful.  Adele Someone Like You.

Seriously wowed by last night’s performance of Demi Lovato on DWTS - Skyscraper.  The girl’s got some serious vocals.  She blew The Script out of the water (maybe his monitor wasn’t working properly…)

Kelly Clarkson is looking good (and thin!) in the 40 second teaser of her new single Mr. Know It All.

Leona Lewis looks beautiful in her newest single, Collide.  Absolutely obsessing over this song right now - so great to run to!  Great motivation for a Monday.
