New Video: Nicole Scherzinger – ‘Don’t Hold Your Breath’

The video for Nicole Scherzinger’s latest single ‘Don’t Hold Your Breath’ premiered a few moments ago.

Check out the clip after the jump…

Ever so applicable here is the age old adage: if it’s not broke, don’t fix it. Having actually enjoyed the original version of the song, I’m not quite sure what her team were attempting with this version; whatever it was, it falls all the way flat.

More autotune, with a cheaper Electro-Pop beat flung on, this latest incarnation the song takes away from what otherwise is a decent enough video.

For as talented as Nicole is, things just don’t seem to be aligning for her when most needed. I mean when not the video, it’s the song. When not the song, it’s the video; and so on and so forth.

Ja Rule to Be Sentenced for Gun Charge Today

After pleading guilty to attempted criminal possession of a weapon in December 2010, Ja Rule is finally facing the music. The former Murda Inc. rapper will appear before a judge today to be sentenced to a prison term for a crime stemming back to July 2007.

The New York MC, whose real name is Jeffrey Atkins, revealed that he's allowing cameras to follow him to shoot a reality show in anticipation of his sentencing. "On my way to court day 1 of shooting for my new show...," tweeted the platinum-selling spitter early this morning. Rule has begun forging a comeback in recent months, relaunching his website and remaining optimistic about several reality show pilots. He is also preparing his first album in seven years, which he's dubbed 'The Renaissance Project' and planned on deluvering before his looming prison stint.

Ja was originally arrested almost four years ago after leaving a concert at New York City's Beacon Theater -- the same show that lead to Lil Wayne's incarceration last year. Police pulled over the 34-year-old's Maybach after smelling marijuana emanating from the vehicle. Upon searching, the NYPD discovered a loaded semi-automatic gun in the rear driver's side of the car.

In December 2010, Ja pleaded guilty to the charges, though the judge dismissed his statement to police that he had a "little bit of weed" on him. The rapper was originally facing up to four years in prison, but is expected to only be handed a two year sentence later today.

If these pics aren't really Amber Rose, she should pretend that they are

via www.worldstaruncut.com

As they say at a one hour photo, they turned out really well.

After the jump is a video from the other day of Amber Rose at some sort of fashion show (do I need to go to more fashion shows?) back in 2005. It would be one of the more impressive things I've seen on the Internets recently even if she weren't an infamous hip-hop slore. I'm talking extreme amounts of jiggle.
