CIARA ALBUM TO BE SHELVED


It seems as though Ciara’s new album, Fantasy Ride which has changed release dates so many times that I haven’t been able to keep up, is going to be up for being shelved by Jive Records. The album was again slated for release for Spring 2009 (with no tentative release date!), even with Ciara’s new video for the first single, “Go Girl!” being out already and more than several tracks leaking.But sources have been saying that the album may not even see the light of day. With pending lawsuits, multiple tracks leaking and a single that is tanking, even with high-profile features like T-Pain and the awesome Melina-directed video, it seems as though Fantasy Ride, originally Ciara’s first concept album, has run into a lot of problems. It’s been rumored that the whole project is to be scrapped and that Ciara will head back into the studio to work on a completely new package.Seems like a headache, and a lot of money going down the tube…

BROOKE BURKE BIG ENOUGH IN TODAYS WIN.

Historic it wasn't. Effective it was.
ABC won Tuesday with the Brooke Burke-crowning Dancing With the Stars finale (20.6 million viewers, per Nielsen estimates) and the popcorn-popping A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving (11.1 million).
Overall, Dancing's audience was down about 4 million viewers from last fall's finale when Hélio Castroneves claimed the glitter ball
CBS' NCIS (18.2 million) was the most watched show located outside of a ballroom. Fox's House (12.5 million) scored the most adults 18-49 of any non-jitterbugging entertainment.
The 9 p.m. hour marked another tug-of-war between Fox's Fringe and CBS' The Mentalist.
Fringe scored more 18-49 year-olds; The Mentalist scored more overall viewers (15.9 million versus Fringe's 8.7 million). Both shows took back seats in those competitions to the first hour of DWTS.
While DWTS has seen bigger finales, it hasn't seen bigger Tuesdays this season. Last night's show was up about 4 million from the show's Tuesday average.
Like DWTS, Charlie Brown was down from last year (about 2.5 million viewers), but it stayed competitive in the ultra-competitive NCIS-House time slot.
