Kelly Rowland Tour 'Worries X Factor Bosses

She’s touring America with Chris Brown in the middle of the series…

12:00, Sunday, 14 August 2011

Kelly Rowland’s shock decision to go on tour midway through The X Factor has worried show bosses, if reports are to be believed.
The Destiny’s Child singer has agreed to support Chris Brown on his extensive 28-date tour of the US and Canada, which kicks off on 12 September and finishes just days before the live X Factor shows are due to begin.
According to The Mirror, show insiders are worried that the When Love Takes Over singer’s finalists will suffer without face-to-face time with their mentor. "Kelly is taking a real risk jetting off in the middle of her first series of The X Factor," a source is quoted in The Mirror. "Some of the cast and crew are worried she is not taking it seriously."
But an X Factor spokesperson has said the star would mentor her finalists from afar. "She plans to have regular Skype chats and phone calls while she's on tour," the rep explained.
On a brighter note, Kelly may have found love with songwriter Tim Weatherspoon, after they were spotted looking very happy together in Beverly Hills this week. It’s thought the pair met years ago after he worked on several tracks with Kelly’s bandmate Michelle Williams.
Kelly recently denied rumours that a Destiny's Child reunion was on the cards.

VICTORIA'S SECRET NO MORE: Following in the er, footsteps, of Nicki Minaj's single nip slip, Kelly Rowland's twofer wardrobe malfunction while onstage at Club 4Sixty6 in West Orange, N.J., was the big page-turner of the week.

HERE I AM ??? KELLY ROWLAND (UNIVERSAL MOTOWN REPUBLIC)
The question of what would happen to Destiny's Child members when Beyoncé Knowles left has been resoundingly answered on several occasions by Kelly Rowland. The answer has been "she's fine, just fine," especially since the soft R&B singer split from her manager (Beyoncé's dad) and her label (Beyoncé's Columbia) and turned some attention to electro and house. French dancemusic producer David Guetta's 2009 smash One Love, featuring Rowland's voice, was the gateway drug. After that, she was hooked on the Euro-disco sound, which gives Here I Am its flashiest moments.
Familiar as her past solo albums have been with syrupy slow jams and witty hip-hop, a track like the steamy Motivation, co-starring nasty Lil Wayne, makes sense. So does the bippity-bopping Lay It on Me with MC Big Sean. There are a few out-and-out pop jams that Rowland executes with varying degrees of guts and grace. But it's the brash Euro-dance stuff on Here that's made her into Donna Summer's best successor with producers such as the whooshing Guetta (Commander) and the crackling RedOne/Jimmy Joker/The WAV.s team (Down for Whatever) playing Giorgio Moroder to Rowland's nu-disco diva. Beyoncé better beware. Rowland's got some hot stuff.

X Factor judge Kelly Rowland has admitted that it was "very embarassing" when she accidentally flashed her breasts during a recent concert.
The former Destiny Child singer had the wardrobe malfunction while performing live in New Jersey at the weekend.
Rowland told TMZ: "Oh God. Please don't discuss that. That was very embarrassing."
Asked how she did not realise what had happened, she said: "You can't feel that. Your adrenaline's going. Yes, your top... oh God."
Meanwhile, she has refused to rule out a possible reunion with Beyonce and Michelle Williams from Destiny's Child.
She told the Daily Record: "Right now, Bey has just dropped a record, I am about to drop a record and we are making our own music.
"Michelle is doing her plays and that is all going great for her. We still support each other and I think that is all part of growing up."
She added: "You go out to make decisions on your own and I support every decision they make. Whatever that is, I'm going to be completely supportive

Kelly Rowland embarrassed by double nip slip

Kelly Rowland had a double nip slip at a concert last weekend. TMZ caught up with the singer and asked her a few questions about the wardrobe malfunction, which came right on the heels of Nicki Minaj's nip slip on GMA.
When the reporters asked her how it happened, the former Destiny's Child star claimed that she could not feel the fact that her breasts had fallen out of the bottom of her top. She said, "You can't feel that. . . the adrenaline." After that, she covered her face with her hand. Throughout the entire interview she appeared embarrassed, horrified even.
With so many people believing that the Kelly Rowland nip slip was a publicity stunt, her behavior to the TMZ cameraman did not seem to back up that belief. Of course, she could be acting for the cameras to try to save her reputation.
What do you think? Was this exposure of her girls really an accident, or did she do it in order to gain the press from the wardrobe malfunction?

The trio were reunited on Tuesday when Beyonce and Williams turned out to support Rowland at her album release party in New York.

As A Free Agent, Kelly Rowland Finally Maximizes Her Value On The Marketplace

Did you see Kelly Rowland’s performance on the BET awards? Was that really…Kelly?
After watching her passionate performance on the BET awards, I had to write about it. But how would I write about it from a business angle? It didn’t take too long to come up with an observation as to why Rowland’s talents were just now being fully exposed in the music marketplace, and my hypothesis centers around Matthew Knowles’ management of 2/3 of his infamously successful girl group Destiny’s Child.
In last night’s performance of her hit single “Motivation,” she was so fly, so dope, so fierce that the question that naturally came to mind was: “where the hell have you been all these years Kelly?” Sure, rumors have always haunted Mr. Knowles management style, and it’s always been whispered in industry circles that Knowles’ only interest was to make his daughter a superstar. But was his management approach to Rowland one of neglect or one involving anti-competition?
Since moving on from Destiny’s Child, Rowland came out with albums like “Simply Deep” – a boring musical foray that only indicated to many fans that Rowland didn’t care about making a splashy contribution to the music scene. She must’ve been content with her post-DC, wealthy lifestyle and not very driven like her counterpart Beyonce – so we thought. At the time, she was still under Mr. Knowles management.
Obviously, Beyonce needs no explanation. She is fierce, she is driven and she has the success to match her passions. Nobody is doubting that. However, why is it that Kelly’s talents had to be downplayed for the sake of Beyonce’s success? Economically, it doesn’t make sense.
Competition is a natural element in our capitalist society – it fosters growth and innovation. So more competition is not a necessarily a bad thing for business owners, and it’s certainly not a bad thing for society at large when engaged ethically.
