You know those couples that wear matching preppy polo shirts? Ellie Goulding and Skrillex don’t go quite so far with their aesthetics but they both sport a mean undercut.
The British songstress and the dubstep producer (who took home three Grammys) have apparently been dating since November and met through recording ties. I can’t envision their first conversation but I imagine it went something like: “Hey that’s a great undercut you have there, maybe we can get an undercut together some time.” Okay , enough with the lame jokes but really, they’re both so talented. Goulding, who performed at the Royal Wedding, is apparently even spending a lot more time in Los Angeles to be closer to him.
If you have any super celebrity couple names for us, please propose them now.
If you haven’t yet had your fix of royalty and your recording of the royal wedding is becoming tiresome, look no further because he new royal family will be visiting North America.
As reported by PEOPLE, Prince William and Duchess Catherine will be visiting Canada from June 30-July 8 and proceeding on to California from July 8-10. No word as to where the couple will be in Canada, or the exact location in California, but you can be sure SOMEONE will find out and leak the info.
This will be Prince William’s first visit in an official capacity to the United States as he has only traveled there privately before. It is Duchess Catherine’s first time in the states.
Put on your royal wedding hats and get ready.
If there was ever a time an artist would be cool with being the wedding singer, this is it.
British singer-songwriter Ellie Goulding, landed the gig of the century, when she was the only one selected to perform at the newly married Duke William and Duchess Catherine’s intimate reception on Friday evening at Buckingham Palace.
In an interview with Us Weekly she said, “It was an amazing honour to be asked by Kate and William to perform at their party. The atmosphere was incredible and it is a night I’ll never forget!”
An honour indeed, as the young 24-year-old was reportedly the only singer invited to perform at the dinner and dance reception of just 300 people, hosted by Prince Charles. An attendee of the reception said Goulding performed a cover of Elton John’s “Your Song,” as well as her well-known pop hit, “Starry-Eyed.”
Goulding won the BBC sound of 2010 poll and was awarded the Critics Choice Awards at the 2010 BRIT Awards. The young Brit is also set to star as the musical guest on the May 7 episode of Saturday Night Live, with guest star Tina Fey. Reportedly, William and Catherine chose the singer because they were huge fans of her 2010 debut album, Lights.
I would have thought perhaps William’s long-time friend and wedding guest, Joss Stone may have been asked to perform a song or two, but it looks like Goulding beat out any competition for the opportunity to be a part of history.
A nice boost for the Brit’s career.
Beyoncé and Jay-Z have reportedly been asked to perform at the royal wedding reception, reports Digital Spy.
Prince William and Kate Middleton are said to be big fans of the married entertainers and it is reported that the pair have accepted the offer.
“Both William and Kate are massive fans of Beyoncé and Jay-Z,” a source said. “They really wanted to make their big day even more special and what better way than by getting pop royalty to perform at the party?
“Will and Kate will have an official reception for hundreds of dignitaries before throwing a less formal bash for loved-ones. They both wanted to ditch traditions and make it more personal for them.”
Jay-Z and Beyoncé are both in Europe at the moment while she promotes her new single ’Run The World (Girls),’ so maybe this is just a rumour due to the fact that they are in Europe? Or maybe it’s actually true? Who knows, but I find it very difficult to picture the Queen of England doing the Single Ladies dance.
George Michael took to Twitter to announce that he has decided to write a royal tune for the upcoming nuptials of Prince William to Kate Middleton. And who better to ask for help than his fellow tweeters?
“I have been thinking about Will and Kate…. and I’m so happy for William… the whole country is getting ready to party! Let’s have our own celebration twitter style…..
“Instead of Song of the Day, let’s pick a song I can give to you on here sometime this week. I’ll grab my piano player and bob’s your uncle… Wedding gift and bank holiday thank u to my twitter lovelies rolled into one.
“I’ll do the vocals at home… Come on boyz n girls…what song should it be? Oh and it can’t be one of mine, they are all a bit too sad….no sniggering and agreeing, you at the back!”
It will be interesting to see how this song is going to turn out, but we have faith f-faith f-faith that it will be amazing!
After expressing a while later that he had come up with a “beautiful song,” Michael kept tweeting with updates on the song’s progress, and even announced that he had gotten a royal thumbs up for it!
“As it turns out, while I was singing I got a text saying they liked the song…..which is the only green light I cared about! Hooray!!” (He later clarified, “No no, I didn’t get a ROYAL text, I just had a good friend run my choice of song by them. No point in making it if they won’t enjoy it….:).”)
According to Michael, the song will be ready for the world to hear by Friday, tweeting Wednesday morning,“I’m up early because I only have one more day to finish the track if I’m going to give you all the song by Friday!”
