JASON DERUL-OUCH
Jason Derulo was rushed to hospital after fracturing his neck during rehearsals for his Future History World Tour and has now been forced to cancel previously planned performances in Glasgow, Sheffield, Cardiff, Birmingham and London.
The type of injury Derulo sustained whilst practicing a stunt is referred to as the ‘hangman’s break’ as it similar to the break caused by a noose. The serious neck injury could have left Derulo paralyzed or even dead. Despite this, the singer is reported to be trying his best to keep his spirits up and keep looking as suave as usual, despite the neck brace he has been ordered to wear by his doctors. Concerned fans can now send the singer personalised e-cards which have reportedly helped him remain positive during his recovery.
Not the greatest start to the year, but here at Vision we wish him a speedy recovery.
GAGA GONE GAGA
Will Lady Gaga stop at nothing? Not content with shocking everybody by wearing a dress made of meat or hatching out of an egg to start a concert, she has gone one step further by being accused of taking part in a Satanic ritual after leaving a bathtub full of blood at a hotel in London.
This eccentric behaviour is allegedly designed to keep Gaga safe from spirits that she worries could affect her performance and demands that every hotel and tour venue must be investigated for paranormal activity before she will agree to stay there.
Is this a sign of artistic genius or just worryingly bizarre? As long as she keeps producing chart toppers no-one really cares.
SUED RONNIE
Lonely Island are being sued in New York by two musicians who allege that the comedy rock band used their beats in two of their songs and failed to give them credit.
The plaintiffs Aleric ‘Rick Tha Ruler’ and Monique ‘Foxx StarStrukk’ Hines claim they sent their beats to the comedic rap group for their singles “Shy Ronnie” (which was nominated for an Emmy award) and the parody “Like a Boss” and have not been properly compensated. They are seeking unspecified damages.
Bank’s and Hine’s company StarStrukk productions are seeking profits plus interest for both singles.
Hopefully they can sort out the feud and let Lonely Island get back to creating more comic hits.
