Lee Ryan’s musical return has sort of passed us by, we skipped out on the opportunity to interview the fella, despite him regularly providing misguided comedy gold that undoubtedly puts his long suffering publicity team into a tizzie, and electro-pop Secret Love (just one of 1000s of songs that Lee supposedly penned for his sophomore album) is a limp, terribly unexciting attempt to join an already flailing bandwagon… sounding quite a lot like a lot like a Simon Curtis / Frankmusik / boys-what-make-bleepy-music-in-their bedroom reject. But new single I Am Who I Am, the other song of what is now a double-A-side release, has just come to our attention thanks to our friends at The Beat Review, and it’s all rather much of a higher calibre.

After the ‘runaway success’ of reader-submitted Mini Viva / BeyoncĂ© poo line of questioning that was universally loathed, we’ve made the rather idiotic mistake to hand over the choice of questions for our latest interview to our beloved users *again*. Our next victim? Ke$ha, or Kesha as we’ve called her in the article’s title - else it breaks the site :-(
Regular visitors and lovers of all things teentoday.co.uk (hello you 2) may well be aware of our previous attempt to interview the big K being filed under ‘not really that successful, probably best not to mention it again, but no doubt we will’ but don’t let that stop you. Hit ‘see more’ to get involved…

NEW: GET THE TT VERDICT ON LEONA’S LABYRINTH TOUR.
Leona Lewis’s The Labyrinth Tour made its debut in Sheffield last night. We didn’t go. But what we did do was ‘curate’ aka steal video, gossip and even opinion from innocent and not-so-innocent users of the interwebs to create a handy little cheat sheet. Here it is. Hit ‘see more’…

It’s fair to say that the last few weeks haven’t exactly been the kindest to Christina Aguilera. Her much-anticipated 4-year-in-the-making return to the musical landscape was in the form of a massively bloated 18 track monster of an album (or so we hear), Not Myself Tonight, despite trying so hard not to be, a rather derivative none-return to form falling down the US charts quicker than the expectation and goodwill of the important people who actually buy records, overpromised, overwrought, oversung, overly long. The only glimmer of hope? The joy of watching her deluded interviews *cough* “Coughing during my interview? Really?”. But then there was this…

If I was to claim that Natasha Bedingfield was a quite dull popstar it is unlikely many of you would disagree. Infact the only things personality-wise that seem to rank on the quite-interesting scale on Natasha’s popstar CV are her will-they-won’t-they relationship with her own brother, and her pronunciation of the word hyperbole. Oh, and her music? Well that’s another matter. For debut album Unwritten masterfully married radio-friendly hip-hop beats with choruses that shine so brightly you need Boots SPF50 and sunglasses just to listen. And that’s all before we mention her barmy lyrical genius. Her latest musical effort? Touch.

There are quite a few things we dislike about The Wanted already. Their self consciously indie stylings and claims of being a lad band (a bit like JLS are a vocal harmony group right? VOCAL HARMONY GROUP. ABSOLUTELY NOT A BOYBAND), Max’s interview with popjustice which was bad enough to implode the group before their first single ever gets released and their rambling attempts at building a fanbase by uploading a series of shambolic behind-the-scenes videos that have combined views still lower than teentoday.co.uk TV’s least popular interview (probably the Sugababes). But there are a few things we do like - and I’m not just talking about the fact that at least one of them is ‘very fit’ and two are ‘quite fit’. And those are explored after the jump, so you should probably hit ‘see more’ now shouldn’t you…
