Taylor Swift, Harry Styles's ex, is the biggest music star in the world, but she opened a can of worms when she decided to take her music off the free streaming site Spotify. According to Chief Executive Officer Daniel Ek, the "Shake It Off" singer would've received millions of dollars by having her music on the site and that the notion that she would've given her music away for free is not true. "At our current size, payouts for a top artist like Taylor Swift — before she pulled her catalog — are on track to exceed $6 million a year, and that's only growing — we expect that number to double again in a year," he wrote on the Spotify website. "Any way you cut it, one thing is clear: We're paying an enormous amount of money to labels and publishers for distribution to artists and songwriters, and significantly more than any other streaming service."

Aretha Franklin is the Queen of Soul with a new album of covers coming out, but the R&B icon doesn't mince words when asked what she thinks about today's music stars. In an interview with the "Wall Street Journal," Aretha gave her thoughts about some of the biggest acts in music today including Taylor Swift, Adele and Nicki Minaj. Her answers weren't the most flattering toward them: On Adele: "Young singer, good singer." On Alicia Keys: "Um, young performer, writer/producer." On Taylor Swift: "Okay. Great gowns. Beautiful gowns." On Whitney Houston: "Whitney was a talent. Definitely a talent. She had a gift. And Cissy's baby." On Nicki Minaj: "Nicki Minaj ... Hmm ... Now I'm going to pass on that one." In another interesting tidbit, the "Respect" singer was questioned about her impressions about Auto-Tune, a device used by many in the industry to enhance their voices. Read More »

"Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Kenya Moore and "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Brandi Glanville are going toe-to-toe with each other on the new season of "Celebrity Apprentice," but not before they blast each other in the media. In an interview with thewrap.com, Kenya threw a tremendous amount of shade toward Brandi when asked about her rival's spot on the NBC competition show. "I think Brandi's sole reason for joining the show was to be an irritant toward me," the "RHOA" star told the site, according to the "Daily Mail." The former Miss USA didn't stop there when told about the RHOBH star's comments to "E! News" the week before: "Two Housewives, there can only be one, so you have to choose: It's either super-evil Kenya or trash-mouth Brandi — pick! But I'm not evil, that's the thing, there's pure evil there." "She was confused," Kenya fired back. "She was drunk and looking in the mirror and that's what came out." Kenya gave her own differences between her and Brandi while also bashing the reality star. "My purpose of being there was to really get some knowledge and skills, and just have a better sense of the business world," the "Gone with the Wind Fabulous" singer said, according to the "Mail." "Brandi's sole purpose of being there is probably to just be drunk and act an idiot." Read More »
