Adam Wakefield “Lights” ‘The Voice’ Video: Watch Top 11 Performance!

Adam Wakefield The Voice Video

(NBC)

Adam Wakefield showed he’s a force to reckon with on “The Voice” on Monday with Journey’s “Lights.” Watch below!

Wakefield, who is on Team Blake, has been breaking away from the back as season 10 has progressed. Last week, he was the highest-ranking contestant on the iTunes Top 40 singles chart, landing at number seven. In fact, only he and presumed frontrunner Alisan Porter (number nine) finished in the top 10, giving them the bonus multipliers to their vote totals.

Now the rocker chose one of Journey’s most popular songs to make an impression during the Top 11 round. Admittedly leaving his “comfort zone,” Wakefield primarily performed sitting at a piano, but brought it home by getting up close with the audience. “Man, what?!” Pharrell exclaimed afterward. “I just discovered a whole other thing I didn’t even know you had in you.”

Pharrell even added, “I may be overstepping but I’m sure America agrees — Big Machine [Records] should be watching you right now.” Adam Levine went on to praise Wakefield for doing “everything” and showing how he can “do it all.” And Blake Shelton, who gave his artist a standing ovation, amusingly thanked his fellow panelists for “making it easy for me.”

Gossip Cop will have full video momentarily, so stay tuned!

Prince Cremation Does NOT Mean Cause Of Death Won’t Be Determined, Despite Report

Prince Cremation Cause Death

(MediaTakeOut)

Prince’s cremation does NOT mean his cause of death won’t be determined, despite a sensational and wrong report. Gossip Cop can debunk the claim.

As Gossip Cop reported, Prince’s body was autopsied on Friday, one day after he was found dead at his home. Following the procedure, his body was cremated, and his family held a private memorial on Saturday. Now MediaTakeOut exclaims in a headline, “NOW WE’LL EVER KNOW… What Killed Him!! Prince’s Body Was QUICKLY CREMATED… And They ALREADY Held His FUNERAL!! (Details Of The SUSPICIOUS Circumstances)”

“If you thought that we were going to find out what killed Prince, you are wrong we’ll never know,” the accompanying story declares. The piece goes on to cite the statement from Prince’s rep confirming the cremation and subsequent private celebration held in his honor. But with absolutely nothing to back it up, MTO implies that Prince’s cremation will prevent his cause of death from being determined.

This is NOT true. His body was released to family members following the autopsy because the Medical Examiner’s office obtained all that was needed to investigate what killed him. If the remains were still critical in making that determination, his body would have been kept in custody. There is nothing “suspicious” about the superstar’s family opting for cremation after getting official possession.

There is, however, something suspicious about a purported news outlet that chooses to sensationalize and overlook basic facts. As Gossip Cop has accurately reported, Prince’s autopsy results are expected in a few weeks. At that point, a cause of death will likely be determined, regardless of the cremation. Period.

Beyoncé’s Lemonade Is Only Available On Tidal — But That Might Change In A Few Hours!!

This would be so great!

When Beyoncé dropped Lemonade on us last night, it was somewhat of a surprise that it was only available via streaming on Tidal — but that may all be about to change!

Not only has the streaming music service announced that you can download Bey’s album from them — for $ 17.99 — but it appears now that the new album WILL be available on iTunes, too!

According to the New York Times, two people who have been briefed on the plans for the album’s overall release expect it to be available for purchase on iTunes at midnight tonight, which is obviously just a few hours away.

That would be HUGE!!!

Apple declined to comment, and a leak like this is notable for Bey’s camp, which usually locks down incredible privacy on her projects.

But if this is true, this is great news — we would LOVE an iTunes download made available for her album!!!

In the meantime, we’ll just have to go off wild fan reactions to figure out what it’s all about.

Ha!!!

Details Most Celebrity Homes Have in Common

If celebrities are crazy about anything in life, it’s their homes. With their busy lifestyles and schedules, it makes sense that these people take pride in the places where they spend their down time, relax and recover for another day’s hard work, and ultimately pour their hearts into. This is also the reason why many celebrities have multiple homes. Why stop at one when you can have 4?

When you glimpse into the home of a celebrity like Mark Wahlberg, Will Smith, or the Kardashians, you’ll see several features and details that all of the homes have in common. These are the features that are usually envied by the rest of the world and are thought to be the epitome of class, success, and function. What are those details? Let’s talk about them.

Walk in Closets

Celebrity closets are the dream. Have you glimpsed into Khloe Kardashian’s closet? Her clothes are color coordinated and she owns every color of the rainbow in tops and yoga pants alike. In the same massive walk in closet that is actually like an entire New York City flat than a closet, she has shelves to neatly display her seemingly hundreds of pairs of shoes. You could walk into Khloe’s closet and go shopping for hours…it would be a surprise if many of the items still had tags on them.

Gourmet Kitchens

A kitchen is a room that everyone takes pride in. When somebody remodels their home, it’s often the kitchen they tackle first. It’s the place that everyone sees when there is entertaining going on, and it’s the place you spend your time preparing your meals for breakfast, dinner, lunch, and snacks alike. No wonder people want their kitchens looking polished and dressed to impress.

Stainless steel appliances are usually a given. The counters, granite or classy wood. The floors can range from a beautiful hardwood, to a unique stamped concrete, to stone. Every celebrity has different taste, but as is evident in Neil Patrick Harris’ kitchen, stainless steel, granite, and white cabinets are the way to roll.

Bathrooms That Are More Like Spas

If you have the resources, why wouldn’t you turn your bathroom into a personal spa? Most celebrity home bathrooms come complete with a luxury shower, a deep, jacuzzi tub for soaking the long, tiresome work days away,, and his and her sinks complete with the finest and classiest of features.

When life is so demanding, celebrities deserve a place to hideaway and hang out with their loved ones and their 10 million Instagram followers. Celebrity homes are dreams to the rest of the world, but to the star, it’s just a place to rest their head at night and live like nobody’s watching.

Prince’s Business Affairs Were Out Of Order Before His Death — Now, Rights To His Songs May Be Up In The Air

This would be so sad.

Prince‘s business affairs weren’t in the best of shape before his sudden death several days ago, and his song catalog may be affected.

The star wasn’t out of money — far from it, in fact, as TMZ reports the singer’s fortune is at least somewhere in the neighborhood of $ 150 million, if not more.

But instead of money, it’s the messy legal stuff that is, well, getting messy after Prince’s sudden and tragic passing.

According to reports, Prince had been changing up his team of legal and business advisers pretty regularly, and with that, he didn’t have a set of high-powered attorneys so typical of celebs.

Without that, he may not have the right team in place to handle his impressive music catalog and deal with estate affairs after his death.

As we’ve seen her previously this week, Prince’s sister Tyka has been handling business affairs and calling the shots since his death — and it’s gotten so confusing to the point where even Warner Brothers Music isn’t sure where exactly the rights to his songs will end up.

Between that legendary music catalog, and at least $ 150 million worth of cash, property, valuables, and other assets, this is going to be a big legal headache moving forward.

Let’s just hope it’s done right.

Members Of Prince’s Staff Hands Out Memorabilia To Grieving Fans — See The Touching Video HERE

We imagine this is exactly what Prince would want.

Following the singer’s heartbreaking death last Thursday, staff from his Paisely Park estate in Minnesota handed out memorabilia tucked in purple boxes to his devastated fans. By the looks of it, the staff had assembled enough touching gifts for the entire crowd of mourners.

What’s amazing about these boxes (besides the generosity factor), is that each box was unique just like the icon himself. Each fan received a package with different items spanning across his career, whether it be a t-shirt or CD.

Take a look at the sweet moment (below)!

Wow, how wonderful. We can’t imagine how these fans must be feeling right now!

It’s just amazing to see how inspiring the singer is even in death.

Police Seeking Interviews With Prince’s Entourage After The Icon’s Sudden Death

After Prince‘s sudden death earlier this week, police continue to investigate.

And now, that investigation will turn to those who knew the Purple Rain singer the best, including members of his entourage in Minnesota.

According to a report in PEOPLE, the chief deputy of the Carver County Sheriff’s Office, Jason Kamerud, is now intent on investigating and interviewing Prince’s close connections in addition to waiting for autopsy results.

Kamerud said:

“We’re in a holding pattern pending autopsy and toxicology results. There are interviews to run down and documents to collect. We are in the process of conducting an investigation, which generally involves interviewing people who have information pertinent to the investigation.”

This, coming after reports that authorities wanted to talk to those closest to Prince about the star’s death — and even wanting to speak to the flight crew in the initial flight that made an emergency landing last week to start all this drama.

It all sounds pretty straightforward from here; thus far, authorities have given no indication that they believe Prince’s death is a suicide or a homicide.

Sounds like they just want to get a better idea of what happened with Prince’s tragic death.

We still are so torn up about it.

Beyonce “Lemonade” Live Stream: Watch HBO Film Online!

Beyonce Lemonade Live Stream

(HBO)

Beyonce’s “Lemonade” will air on HBO on Saturday night. Watch the live stream below!

As Gossip Cop reported, Beyonce announced the mysterious “world premiere event” exactly a week ago with a 20-second teaser. The clip was posted to the superstar’s YouTube page, Instagram account, and official website. With her braided-head bowed, she could be heard saying in a voiceover, “What am I going to do, love?”

Since then, practically no details about the project have leaked, though it’s believed to be a short film or concept video tied to Beyonce’s highly-anticipated new album. The long-awaited record has never had a public release date, despite rumors. But with the “Formation World Tour” slated to begin next Wednesday, it should be dropping any moment.

And it’s possible that moment will come during or after tonight’s broadcast. But one needn’t be an HBO subscriber to watch. Fans in the United States can stream “Lemonade” online through a free HBO Now trial.

Similarly, HBO Go will also have an online feed, while some cable providers are doing a free HBO preview weekend to coincide with the premiere. The film will air live coast to coast, but will also be replayed on Sunday night for a second chance to watch. But “Lemonade” will first debut at 9 p.m. Eastern on Saturday night. Click to watch on HBO Now and HBO Go.

Chloe Grace Moretz Defends Feud With Kim Kardashian: “I Wasn’t Catty”

Chloe Moretz Kim Kardashian InStyle Interview

(InStyle UK)

Chloe Grace Moretz covers the June 2016 issue of InStyle UK, and opens up in the accompanying interview about her recent feud with Kim Kardashian.

As Gossip Cop reported at the time, Moretz was one of a few stars who took issue with the nude selfie Kardashian posted on social media in March. She tweeted to the reality star, “I truly hope you realize how important setting goals are for young women, teaching them we have so much more to offer than just our bodies.”

Some in turn accused the actress of slut-shaming, leading her to insist, “There’s a huge difference in respecting the platform that you’re given as a celebrity and ‘slut shaming’ something I never have done and would never do.” Kardashian didn’t quite see it that way, though, and cracked in response, “let’s all welcome @ChloeGMoretz to twitter, since no one knows who she is. your nylon cover is cute boo.”

Asked about the exchange and the Twitter storm that ensued, Moretz now tells InStyle, “I’ve never been afraid to have my own voice and to speak my own mind. I wasn’t catty about it.” She goes on to note, “A lot of people came back and said, ‘You’re wrong.’ I was like, ‘You might disagree with me and that’s great. Let’s have a debate.’ At least I believe in something.”

In the aforementioned Nylon issue, Moretz explained why she turned down an invitation to join Taylor Swift’s “squad,” and she reiterates that stance now. “No one really puts herself in the shoes of the girl that’s not in the squad — and that was always me,” she argues. Something else she isn’t on board with?

Two words: Donald Trump. “At first, I was like, ‘Look at this silly, loud-mouthed dude running for president. That will never be a reality,’” says the star. “Then it became this really strong, nasty, dark undercurrent supporting him and funding him to influence the masses. It’s shocking.”

As Gossip Cop has noted, Moretz is all about Team Hillary. She even tells the magazine, “I was so star-struck when I met her that I couldn’t breathe. I cried to her face!” Moretz’s full InStyle issue will hit newsstands on April 28.
