Fifth Harmony to Perform the National Anthem at the NHL All-Star Game

Posted on January 24, 2017 by Tom Castaneda

Ally Brooke Hernandez and Lauren Jauregui are hitting the rink…

The Latina singers and their fellow Fifth Harmony groupmates will perform at the National Hockey League (NHL) All-Star Game on Sunday at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.

The 62nd annual event, which will also feature performances by Nick Jonas and Carly Rae Jepsen, kicks off at 12:30 p.m. PT on Sunday, Jan. 29, and will air on NBC.

Jepsen will kick things off with the Canadian national anthem before the game, and Fifth Harmony will follow with “The Star-Spangled Banner.”

Jonas, meanwhile, will perform during the game’s second intermission.

“We are pleased with the incredible lineup of entertainment that we put together for the 2017 Honda NHL All-Star Weekend,” said Steve Mayer, NHL chief content officer and executive vice president. “The All-Star Weekend will feature three days of can’t-miss events, including the NHL100 celebration on Friday night, in a weekend where hockey takes over Hollywood. We are excited for Nick Jonas, Fifth Harmony and Carly Rae Jepsen’s All-Star Game performances for our fans in L.A and those watching around the world.”

This will be Fifth Harmony’s second performance without Camila Cabello, following their debut as a quartet at the People’s Choice Awards last week.

The NHL All-Star Weekend will also include the NHL100 gala hosted by actor Jon Hamm honoring the league’s 100 greatest athletes of all time with guest appearances by John Legend and Robin Thicke, who will honor his late father Alan Thicke, as well as John Ondrasik of Five for Fighting.

This will be the third time Los Angeles will host the NHL All Star Game and the first since 2002.

Lovato’s “Neon Lights” Reaches No. 1 on Billboard’s Dance Club Songs Chart

Posted on January 21, 2014 by Tom Castaneda

Demi Lovato has plenty of reason to do a happy dance…

The 21-year-old part Mexican American singer, actress and former The X Factor judge’s latest single “Neon Lights” has reached the No. 1 spot on Billboard’s Dance Club Songs chart.

It’s Lovato’s first chart-topper on the dance charts and her second Billboard No. 1 overall. She previously scored a No. 1 on the Pop Songs chart with “Give Your Heart a Break.”

Lovato, a two-time People’s Choice Award winner earlier this month, wrote “Neon Lights” – the third single from her fourth album Demi – with Mario Marchetti, Tiffany Vartanyan, Noel Zancanella and One Republic’s Ryan Tedder, who produced the song.

The track, which features elements of electropop and dance-pop and prominent EDM influences has been described by one critic as a “rave-tastic synth anthem.”

Aguilera Gives Riveting Performance at People’s Choice Awards

Posted on January 10, 2013 by Tom Castaneda

Now that’s why she’s called the “People’s Voice”…

Christina Aguilera didn’t just pick up a special award at the People’s Choice Awards for her achievements in the music industry and her ability to reach millions around the globe.

The 32-year-old half-Ecuadorian American actress even performed on the CBS-televised awards show, singing the soulful ballad “Blank Page,” her latest single from her recent album Lotus.

Dressed to the nines in an Alexander McQueen jacket and vest with Alexandre Vaulthier pants, Christian Louboutin shoes and Neil Lane jewelry, the recently-departed judge from NBC’s The Voice accepted her award, the first-ever People’s Voice Award, from actor Josh Duhamel.

It would be Aguilera’s only award of the night after losing in the Favorite Celebrity Judge category to The X Factor’s Demi Lovato.

Meanwhile, Glee star Lea Michele won Favorite Comedic TV Actress. The half-Spanish American actress beat out her co-star Jane Lynch, The Big Bang Theory‘s Kaley Cuoco, Modern Family’s Sofia Vergara and The New Girl’sZooey Deschanel for the public-voted honor.

The 39th annual awards show took place Wednesday night at the Nokia Theatre L.A. Live, with Cuoco hosting for a second time.

In addition to picking up the special award, Aguilera will take the stage to perform on the live show. No word on what song the “Your Body” singer will tackle yet. But if it’s anything like the performance Aguilera gave at the American Music Awards, it should be a high-energy affair.
