Gossip Teen

Possible pairing: teen star Vanessa Hudgens may be the daughter to super diva Mariah Carey. The two are both in talks to star in a musical comedy based on singing competition shows like American Idol and X Factor.

“Vanessa Hudgens has already been approached for the daughter role. The only sticking point seems to be whether Mariah feels comfortable playing mom to a teenager. She’s a little sensitive when it comes to her age.”

Could be interesting.

After a four year absence, the cable music channel VH1 is trotting out it’s concert show, VH1 Divas. Miley Cyrus, Kelly Clarkson, Leona Lewis and Adele have been announced as performers for this year’s event.

What do you think of these choices? I have to say, while I enjoy these artists, the Divas shows were legendary because they chose a diverse group of female musicians who’ve STOOD THE TEST OF TIME. None of these performers qualify. Three, four or even five years just isn’t the same as decades of hard work, being recognized by your peers continuously, and fighting the ups and downs of a fickle public and music business. I think it will be a fun concert, but nothing amazing. Too bad that they can’t come up with another way to get this group of gals together and not put them in the same category with Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Cher, Aretha Franklin, Celine Dion, Cher, Stevie Nicks, Tina Turner etc…

Check it out on September 17th at 9pm.
