The Birtish are getting a maxi CD for the following tracks:
1. Celebration
2. Celebration [Paul Oakenfold mix]
3. Celebration [benny Benassi mix]
4. Celebration [Paul Oakenfold dub]
5. Celebration [benny Benassi mix edit]
6. Celebration [Johny Vicious club mix]
Whereas the rest of the European are getting this:
1. Celebration
2. Celebration [benny Benassi Remix]
3. Celebration [benny Benassi Dub]
I wonder if they will get another single that includes Oakenfold & Johnny's remixes?

More plates for Mimi please.

THE ISSUE OF FREE DOWNLOADS
Dear Fred,
Recently, you said that free downloads for specific songs issued by a label do not count toward the Hot 100 chart.
Last week, Mariah Carey saw over a 100% rise in downloads. This can be attributed mostly to the remix of the song "We Belong Together" which was available exclusively on iTunes and was made available for free at Carey's official Web site, www.mariahcarey.com.
According to reported numbers, the remix of "We Belong Together" sold 27,000 copies, outdoing the original, even though it never once broke [the] top 50 on iTunes. This is impossible given that the original version of the song sold less and was sitting up in the top 30 all week.
According to the iTunes discount purchase plan, a label has to purchase 25,000 copies of a single to offer it to fans for free. Are you sure that Billboard didn't accidentally count these singles when [compiling] the Hot 100?
Mathematically, something doesn't add up.

Dear Laney,
I did state Billboard policy last week regarding free downloads not being counted for the Hot 100. Your e-mail and others like it prompted me to ask Billboard's director of charts, Geoff Mayfield, about "We Belong Together."
I hope you will appreciate Geoff's response, as he is as concerned about the accuracy of all Billboard charts as much as you and I, if not more. Here's what Geoff had to say:
In these fast-changing times, there are rare occasions when we have to adjust chart rules on the fly. At the point when Fred asked me about free downloads last week, it was the not the intention of either Nielsen SoundScan or Billboard to include free downloads in our tabulation of Hot Digital Songs, The Billboard Hot 100 or the Pop 100 unless they met the conditions that we outlined: that the merchant gets paid full price and the consumer can use the premium to buy any available download.
However, as the day wore on, it became apparent we did not have a sufficient filter in place to enforce that policy until after the chart was tabulated, this after we had already held up processing more than 24 hours beyond normal deadlines. Had we been able to install that filter last week, Mariah Carey's "We Belong Together" would not have risen to No. 1 on the Hot 100 until this week.
Now, the filter is in place. The policy that we stated in Fred's "Chart Beat Chat" last week and repeated above is becomes effective with this week's charts.

What is the point of attending if she isn't going to perform?
Pay respect to MJ?

Oprah: Audience, if you look under your seats you'll find that you're all going home with a copy of MARIAH'S NEW ALBUM!!!
It may turn out to be real!

Don't know if fake or not:
It looked so Duran Duran's Come Undone CD.

With a gross of $408 million, Sticky & Sweet is the top-grossing tour by a solo artist of all time
I won't be surprised if her next tour gross lesser than 408m and tabloids (e.g. The Cunt) start to write shit like she's over (of course they will omit the fact that S&S comes with 2nd leg).

What are the chances WBR will release and remaster her old/unreleased demos? (talking more about the songs that didn't, in any form, make the album cuts)

NOW THAT SHE HAS FOUND BET !!!!!!!
Never say never.
Mimi will grab whatever chances she can to promote her new album.
Must give credit to such fighting spirit.

I forgot: I can't believe they buried her in that Stella outfit
I wish they put her in D&G
D&G? Chanel would be a better choice since both them are legend.

Pfft, screw Oprah!
I think she should do Maury Povich.
She should do Oprah and have "Download Celebration single & album on iTunes now" appeared on TV screen every fucking 5 mins like Mimi.
-
Well the day its relesed on those sites, i'll fucking stream it.
So what other sites are counted? Isnt AOL and MSN counted too??
It seems like these streaming site doesn't care where you from, that's why Lamb from all over the world have been streaming Obsessed day and night, and it made it to #1 on video streaming eventually.

So if Her Madgesty is a deal sealer for you to tune into the VMAs, we're told it very much could happen. She'll have wrapped the second leg of her Sticky & Sweet Tour, and on top of her love for M.J., Madonna coincidentally has her new single, "Celebration," to promote. When it comes right down to it, every publicity appearance is calculated for someone of her stature, capisce? Plus, we're sure she'll be in the NYC neighborhood since that's where her love nest is with "love of her life" Jesus Luz.
What say you all? You want Madge onboard the Jackson-centric show? Or are you slightly over all this M.J. exposure?
Looks like a great opportunity to promote Celebration but it's a MJ tribute, it's gonna be like "sad"... performing "Celebration" sounds inappropriate to me.
-
We hear the VMAs are going to have a "big" Michael Jackson component, and execs are dying for Madonna to pay tribute to the King of Pop, because really, who else can?
Me! Me! I've 18 #1!
