50 Cent

50 Cent, who previously claimed that hip hop is “dwindling away,” has already started to record a dance album inspired by club music he’s heard while touring Europe.

“I went to a nightclub after party. It was different music after a while. The music they were playing before they were playing the music I created was more up-tempo, more dance,” he explained. “I wanted to make a song like that, so I went into the studio. Because I’m traveling with my live band, I took the band with me and we sequenced it and recorded the actual record while we was out there.”

The “Baby By Me” rapper said he hopes the new record - working title Black Magic - will show his full diversity as an artist to people.

“I won’t allow myself to be placed in a box where I can only do one style, or do one kind of music,” he added. “They should expect the unexpected on this one. If they can understand how I enjoy different genres of music and different styles, for the people who have various tastes in music, they’ll really like it.”

Lady GagaAccording to , she would “die” if she wasn’t famous. Lady Gaga, who is well known for her eccentric fashion sense, bizarre make-up choices, and party lifestyle, can’t stand the thought of life away from the public eye, and wouldn’t be able to cope with normal life.

Lady Gaga said: “There are times when it can be a lot to deal with but always when I get up in the morning I try to find that very joyful place that reminds me that I would die if someone took it all away. If someone did that I wouldn’t be a person any more.”

After years of singing in clubs and penning tracks for stars including , the 23-year-old beauty - who topped the UK charts with her debut album The Fame - is grateful of her newfound success. She explained: “I have such an appreciation for where I am in my life because I’ve struggled and because I couldn’t get signed, and because I couldn’t get played on the radio.”

But the eccentric star, who went to the elite Convent of the Sacred Heart School with Paris and Nicky Hilton, relishes the opportunity to be herself. She said: “Right now the only thing that I am concerned with in my life is being an artist. I had to suppress it for so many years in high school because I was made fun of but now I’m completely insulated in my box of insanity and I can do whatever I like.”
