Oh Land...pretty Pop flavor appears @ trendy Cafe Du Nord! San Francisco! April 13th!

 

Oh Land, the pretty bombshell Pop Singer making waves around the country with her hit dance tune -"Son of a Gun" - is sashaying into San Francisco to open for "Francis and Lights" at the Cafe Du Nord on Wednesday Night (April 13th).

Readers at forgus beylan may recall that I posted a review of her live! Stage Performance which I caught at The Abbey in WeHo a few weeks ago.

Since then, as predicted, the Danish lovely - with oodles of talent and charisma to boot - has been trotted out to perform for gushing audiences on the Late Night talk-show circuit (Dave Letterman, for example).

Oh Land - while thrilled with the attention - remains down-to-earth and realistic.

"So, already at 10,  I was aware that I could be replaced by somebody else at any time. I definitely grew up with a number on my belly," she confided to a reporter at the San Francisco Examiner.

"Because at Ballet school (which she vigorously attended in her youth), half of the ones they took in each year were thrown out the next, and you would get a letter each year, telling you if you could continue or not. It was quite horrible," she recalled in horror.

And, you thought the Black Swan (Natalie Portman) had it bad!

Now, in the realms of the Pop spotlight, does she have to worry about being just a flavor of the month?

Pop Flavor takes off!

The Strokes...appear live! on Dave Letterman! Hard-hitting sound!

 



If 'ya missed the Strokes live on stage on the Jimmy Fallon show the other evening, you have a second shot at catching the band in their element in front of a captive audience.

On April 7th, the hard-driving band - with the sexy swagger, chic stage presence, and tunes that resonate - will be appearing on Late Night with Dave Letterman.

The Strokes are a five-piece band who hail from New York.

Julian Casablancas (Vocals), Nick Valensi (lead guitar), Albert Hammond, Jr. (rhythm guitar), Nikolai Fraiture (bass) and Fabrizio Moretti (drums) are the band members to keep your eye on.

The winsome fivesome emerged from the “Garage Rock Revival” in early 2000.

The sexy hard-hitting Strokes offer up an eclectic mix of glaring guitars, speedy percussion, and catchy lyrics that resonate.

With each new release, the talented band gains momentum.

The Strokes have sold-out shows in the UK, the U.S. and Europe.

 A headlining slot at Lollapalooza in 2010 catapulted the Strokes to even greater heights.

A current round of the late-night talk-show circuit is bound to elevate their status on a greater International scale and trigger humungous sales for their upcoming album (released in the next week).

Catch the Strokes wave, eh?

Slick promos don't hurt the image!

Justin Bieber...top ten list pokes fun at celebrity! Dave Letterman show!

Last night Justin Bieber surprised fans and television viewers alike when he popped up on the stage of the Ed Sullivan Theatre to take a poke at his celebrity status for Dave's ever-popular Top Ten List!

Although the segment is a biit spotty at times - poorly-written now-and-then and often missing the funny bone by a country mile - the Bieber material was pretty high calibre!

A couple of my fave jabs?

*It’s good to be a pop star without having to audition for American Idol's Steven Tyler.

*Cross me and I’ll have 50,000 screaming girls come to your house to mess you up.

*When I’m sick my doctor makes hilarious jokes about Bieber fever.

*The chance to visit The Late Show and my idol Paul Schaffer.

  (Canucks always stick together, 'ya know?)

*At the Barber shop, I can say, “Give me the me.”

  (Is that kind of like jerking off?)

*If I tweet  “I just sneezed” a billion people will tweet “gesundheit.”

You betcha, kid!

Don't want some nasty cold putting a damper on your next stage performance!

By the way, the "Bieb's" delivery wasn't half-bad.

The diction was pretty good, in fact!

The pop star showed potential in the comic-timing department, too.

Are romantic features on the horizon?

Later!

Dave loves the daddy-life!

Dave Letterman...Ooops moment! Ryan Seacrest pot shots! Say what, Paula Abdula?

Boy, that was quite an Oops! moment last night on the Dave Letterman show!

Do you suppose the head honcho at Worldwide Pants (Dave Letterman) fired a camera operator at the crack of dawn this morning?

Or - just maybe - a stage manager's head will get the axe later in the day.

Who knows!

Bottom line?

There was definitely a slip up in communication somewhere along the line.

The unthinkable occurred about half-way through the highly-rated talk show.

On a return from commercial break - suddenly (without warning) - viewers at home found themselves staring at a ghastly shot of Dave bent over his desk (caught in the act of snatching up a scrap of paper off the floor) with a bald spot "comb over" on the crown of his head in plain view!

Judging by the embarrassed look on his face, I surmise that Dave was unaware that he was on air , when he finally righted himself in the chair.

When the cameraman quickly cut-away to Paul Shaffer - the awkward look on the bandleader's face said it all  - you betcha!

Uh-huh!

Dave got caught with his pants down!

Ouch!

For some inexplicable reason, Letterman had the knives out for Ryan Seacrest last night.

After mentioning a bit of scuttlebutt about a guest referring to themselves as a "douche bag" on a New Years show (hosted by the perky DJ and Dick Clark on another network) Dave was inclined to issue a cautionary warning to everyone within earshot in the event they were not in the "know" about Ryan.

"That Seacrest guy pulled a Jay Leno. Got them all fired. He's the one with all the money, 'ya know," he kidded.

At the end of the segment (and at the close of the show) the camera focused on a blow-up photograph of Ryan Seacrest tacked to the studio wall - all smiles - in spite of the fact he was not a guest on the show.

Bizarre!

But, Paul Abdul's interview was the most intriguing, to say the least.

Reluctant to initially reveal the specific details of her new dance show - slated to broadcast tonight on CBS - Dave was forced to joist with her a bit (the segment was painful to watch and tantamount to pulling teeth ) to get his money's worth.

Ms. Abdul is either in denial or just totally clueless.

For instance, when Dave quizzed her as to the whereabouts of Simon Cowel these days, she tried to subtly insult the former American Idol Judge she once worked alongside.

"Oh, he's doing a small show," she uttered up with a straight face.

When asked how much she liked Cowell, she was quick on the uptake.

"About this much," she teased, as she used her fingers to elaborate her point.

If you read between the lines, you probably figured it out.

Abdul, who has allegedly slept with Cowell, was inferring that he wasn't very well hung.

As to the show, Abdul was referring to X Factor - an overseas hit that Cowell is currently involved with  - expected to fair well when it launches in the U.S.

If Ms. Abdul appeared on the Late Show with the aim of changing her image - without doubt - she failed miserably.

How long is this scorned woman going to try to save face, as she continues to make a fool of herself on Network TV in front of an amused world?

Seacrest brunt of Dave's scorn!

Cher...comments about "old" fans & oxygen tanks insulting! Last gig @ Caesar's...

Rags to Rags

"I'm often mistaken for a Cher impersonator," the sexy sixties pop icon joked to Dave Letterman this week after plunking herself down on the coach on the set of the late night talk fest.

But, it was the asssessment of her audience, that may have offended a few of her die-hard fans, though.

"They're old," she seemed to shudder at the thought!

The fact that these golden-oldies showed up with their oxygen tanks in tow (her words, not mine) caused her to opine that the upcoming gig @ Caesars Palace (Las Vegas) may be her last.

On that note, the Bob Mackie (middle-aged) Barbie, was inclined to protest about the price of the tickets.

"My young fans can't afford the venue," she lamented.

Well, about a free concert or two in park, Cher?

Apparently the award-winning chanteuse is a bit miffed about becoming a joke in the macho set.

After all, folks have reported back that they've heard unkind remarks about her, when it comes to a trek to the glitzy Hotel in the desert oasis.

"I'm going to take 'ya to see that old lady at Caesars while I go off and gamble," two-fisted beer-drinkers have been known to chortle.

OMG!

Has the sultry siren lost her sex appeal?

Meanwhile, Dave was surprisingly keen on tackling all fronts, as he held her captive on live TV.

"Was you son "Chaz" a lesbian before he got the sex change," he probed, as a hush fell over the room.

Cher nodded in the affirmative.

During the course of the conversation the aging cougar admitted that it was a difficult situation from the get-go.

"If I was in a man's body, I'd be so unhappy," she added, without blinking-an-eye.

So, she summarizly gave Chastity the nod.

No word on the scuttlebutt.

Did Momma pay for the expensive transformation?

I laughed when toothy Letterman zeroed in on Cher's love life.

"You dated Warren Beatty," he started off slowly.

"Yes."

"And, Tom Cruise?"

"Yes."

Although there was a perfect opportunity for Dave to quiz her about the allegations that Cruise is "gay", he gave a wide berth, and avoided that potential controversy.

Gosh, he didn't even bring up the subject of Scientology.

By the end of this titillating segment, Dave was posing a mighty personal question.

"Have you slept with 100 men, then?"

The audience roared.

"Well, everyone was promiscuous in those days," Cher offered up in her defense.

When the touchy issue of the Rock 'n Rock Hall of Fame Award reared its ugly head, she remained pretty low-key.

Just maybe, Cher realizes now that her whining in Vanity Fair didn't do much to bolster her image.

Cry baby!

But, the Pop Icon managed to slide in a slight, before she signed off.

"It's all about coolness," she teased.

Say what?

It's not about the music?
