Miley Cyrus hasn't heard Jay-Z's Music

he Fox & Friends show on Fox News channel along with multiple sources are reporting on a story of major significance today: Miley Cyrus has never heard a Jay-Z song and can't even name one. This news comes despite her latest hit song on the radio claiming in its lyrics she turned on the radio to hear her favorite Jay-Z song. The young pop star has been cashing in on the track, but explains that she didn't write the song, and that pop music isn't really her thing.. "I don't know, I didn't write the song – I picked that song because I needed something to go with my clothing line," she explained of her collaboration with Wal-Mart and designer Max Azaria, adding she didn't realize the track would take off. "It turned out for the best. It was really unexpected." The young rocker said the pop track was a curveball from her usual style. "I don't listen to pop music, that's not my style of music," Miley said of the track. "I'm really blessed for it to have done as well as it has." Miley further added that she'd never cover a song her father did like "Achy Breaky Heart" because "That's like covering a Jay-Z song". It's good to see the media not only exposes government lies, but also those done by musicians in playful, upbeat song lyrics... Miley Cyrus' "Party in the USA" is currently a chart topper and one of the top-selling ringtones for 11/8/09. (Story source: nbcmiami.com)

Maya Angelou's Michael Jackson Poem

During the televised Michael Jackson memorial service at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California, actress/rapper Queen Latifah spoke. Queen Latifah read a moving poem written by literary legend Maya Angelou entitled "We Had Him". Latifah said she was there to represent millions of fans around the world who admired Michael from a distance. Latifah also reminisced about how she and her brother listened to "Dancin' Machine" way back when and tried to do the Robot, but ultimately noted how Michael Jackson opened doors for her and others, and introduced a world beyond the one she knew. Below is the video footage of Queen Latifah reading the Maya Angelou Michael Jackson poem, with the words underneath. "We Had Him" by Dr. Maya Angelou Beloveds, now we know that we know nothing Now that our bright and shining star can slip away from our fingertips Like a puff of summer wind, Without notice our dear love can escape our doting embrace, Sing our songs among the stars, And walk our dances across the face of the moon In the interest that we learn that Michael is gone we know nothing, No clocks can tell our time, No oceans can rush our tides, With the abrupt absence of our treasure Though we are many each of us is achingly alone, piercingly alone, Only when we confess our confusion, Can we remember that he was a gift to us, And we did have him, He came to us from the creator, Trailing creativity and abundance, Despite the anguish of life he was sheathed in mother love, And family love, And survived, And did more than that he thrived, With passion and compassion, Humor and style, We had him, Whether we knew who he was or did not know He was ours and we were his We had him, beautiful, delighting our eyes he raked his hat, slant over his brow And took a pose on his toes for all of us And we laughed and stomped our feet, for him We were enchanted by his passion Because he held nothing He gave us all he had been given Today in Tokyo, beneath the Eiffel Tower In Ghana's Black star Square In Johannesburg and Pittsburgh in Birmingham, Alabama and Birmingham, England We are missing Michael Jackson But we do know we had him, And we are the world...
