Nicola Roberts set for electro sound
WITH inspiration from outspoken rapping nutter M.I.A. and Swedish singer ROBYN, the new solo album from NICOLA ROBERTS is shaping up to be more edgy than bandmate CHERYL COLE's.
Producer JOE MOUNT from METRONOMY, whose decent new album The English Riviera is out this week, said: "We did two tracks together, one of them is a bit more electronic-sounding.
"She was really into Robyn and M.I.A.
"I was surprised but it's a good place for her to start."

Rebecca Black Gets Her Own Billboard
It's Friday—the perfect day for Rebecca Black to make showbiz history. Yes, on this day, Friday April 15, 2011, the 14-year-old Internet phenomenon scored an achievement unparalleled even by her idol, Justin Bieber. The plucky eighth grader with the robotic voice can now gloat down upon the smog-enshrouded streets of Los Angeles, California from her very own billboard.
Yes, Rebecca Black has her own billboard. The giant advertisement was erected to commemorate the day Black's repetitive ditty, Friday, garnered 100+ million You Tube views; thereby surpassing not only Justin Bieber's Pray, but also Lady Gaga's Born This Way. Her friend, Ryan Seacrest, posted a picture on his Facebook page showing the viral video superstar posing in front of her latest triumph. You can scrutinize that photo here. Or, if you're a true blue—er—Black Friday fan, you can make a pilgrimage to the City of Angels and see said billboard personally. You can even lunch at the Subway on the corner and spend an entire afternoon gazing at the giant image of your idol.
Speaking of Black Friday, Rebecca Black's traveling road show tour will begin in just a few short months in Australia. So, if you're lucky enough to reside in the Land Down Under, be sure to get your tickets early.
And after the concert, you can party with your friends.

Janet Jackson tour to be extended through the fall
Janet Jackson is currently on her sold-out “Number Ones” tour and, while the original plan was to only perform 35 dates, she’s planning on extending the tour through the fall.
“Number Ones: Up Close & Personal Tour,” Jackson’s largest ever world tour, has already seen her perform in Asia and North America. Jackson announced Monday that the tour is being expanded to even more cities worldwide.
Jackson was originally set to hit 35 cities in celebration of her 35 #1 hits, as compiled in her recent “Number Ones” release, but has since had to add more dates to fulfill demand. Some shows sold out as quickly as 10 minutes after tickets went on sale.
Jackson is finishing up her first North American leg of the tour and is still set to perform dates across Europe over the spring and summer, including stops in London, Paris and Monte Carlo. Another North American leg is set for the fall.
“When creating music or a tour, I draw from what is going on in my life and hope that the fans relate to it,” Jackson said. “I am excited to know that the fans are having a great time at my shows and are asking for more. Thanks for all the love and your input on where I should take the show next. I’ll see you soon!”
The additional cities and dates on Jackson’s tour have yet to be announced.

Goldfrapp Start New Album
Goldfrapp's Will Gregory has told 6 Music that work is beginning on their new album.
Having just wrapped up his debut opera Piccard In Space, Gregory claimed the time was right to start work on the follow up to 2010's Head First.
"I am ready to do it now, to get back to Goldfrapp will be a very refreshing change, " he said.
He continued: "We have, as usual, lots of stuff in the bottom drawer which we rejected the first time round, but I expect we'll want to start a fresh this time round."
The electro duo, which includes Alison Goldfrapp formed in 1999 and are now 5 albums strong. With the music fluttering between the ambient and the euphoric, there are few clues as to how any of the songs will sound with Gregory revealing that "nothing has been planned".
"We have tried sitting down and writing lists and having coffee to talk about it, but usually we just mess about, it's good not to be too conscious about what you do," he said.
