Lexi St.George, the up and coming teen celebrity from ABC’s Good Morning America and Ark Music Factory, will literally sing for WowWee’s Paper Jamz Pro Jam Series microphone.
The ads feature Lexi and her debut single and video “Dancing to the Rhythm.”
“We were impressed by Lexi’s talent, her sincerity, innocence and her fresh, wholesome approach as she’s been catapulted up the star ladder,” says Marc Rosenberg, spokesman of WowWee USA.
“She’s ideal for the new Paper Jamz line—a girl who nurtured her dream from singing with a hairbrush to a national TV debut.”

“I’m speechless with gratitude,” said the 14-year-old protégé.
“This whole experience has been so overwhelming and humbling. I thank WowWee for choosing me and am looking forward to making my commercial debut with the Paper Jamz Pro Series Mic!”
The Paper Jamz Pro Series Microphone is $29.99 and is available at Wal-Mart now, and scheduled to hit Target, Toys R US and Kmart later this month.

Season 10 American Idol contestant Pia Toscano has signed a recording contract with Interscope Records and 19 Recordings and will release her debut single next week.
The New York beauty will also perform the single ‘This Time’, set for release via digital retailers on July 12, as she takes the road for the American Idols Live! 2011 Tour, which kicked off July 6 in Salt Lake City, and will end on Sept 10 in Rochester.
“I am thrilled to be joining the Interscope and 19 Recordings family,” Toscano, 22, said.
“Jimmy Iovine [Interscope Geffen A&M Chairman] was an amazing mentor during my time on Idol and I’m looking forward to working with him and everyone at Interscope Records and 19 Recordings.”
“This is a dream come true,” added the dark-haired singer with a powerhouse vocal ability.
American Idol Season 10 judge Steven Tyler had this to say about the voting public who saw Toscano’s early elimination: “They’re wrong. I don’t know what happened with this. She’s beautiful. When she sings, she’s a bird.”

Celebrity British soul singer-songwriter and actress Joss Stone has posed nude for an animal rights campaign, protesting the killing of bears whose fur is used for making military hats.
The PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) advert above shows Stone, 23, hugging a teddy bear that covers her naked body, but still conveys quite effectively the message. Though the photo doesn’t show all, the slogan says it all.
Stone said in a statement:
“Too many people at the Ministry of Defence are dragging their heels on this issue, and I feel like more needs to be done to stop the murder.
“It’s time for the Ministry of Defence to finally make the switch and go fur-free, and I hope that the ad I have created with PETA helps raise awareness and puts a stop to this unnecessary killing.”

Appears as if the trend is towards younger celebrities — or at least the younger wannabe celebrities — representing the older, international brands… if Versace’s picking the 17-year-old daughter of Rolling Stones legend Mick Jagger and supermodel Jerry Hall as its spokesperson any indication.
Perhaps the Italian fashion house has a point. Donatella Versace has said: “She’s smart, a strong personality, beautiful, full of energy… and with that natural high star quality, I adore her! She’s perfect for this collection – A real Versace girl.”
The Versace S/S 2010 women’s ad campaign, shot by photographer Mario Testino in London earlier this month, will start appearing in February, in some of the stylist and lifestyle publications worldwide.
Wondering about the ‘toothy’ look? Georgia thinks it adds ‘character’.
“A while ago on the street, a guy yelled, ‘You could stick a gold through your front teeth.’ Which meant I could put a £1 coin between them,” Georgia said.
“But you can’t, I’ve tried. Fifty pence coins and two pence coins, yes. But not a pound,” she added. Wow.
That makes me wonder if Georgia could have been a better spokesperson for Gap jeans?

American songstress Lady Gaga recently teamed up with legendary artist and producer Dr. Dre and Monster, a leader in audio/video accessories, to launch Heartbeats by Lady Gaga, the latest addition to the hugely popular Beats by Dr. Dre headphone family from Monster.
Lady Gaga explains her motivation behind Heartbeats by Lady Gaga: “In the deepest hour of the night, I confess to myself three things; I would die if I was forbidden to write, forbidden to love, or forbidden to fashion. Heartbeats embody the trinity of my human-being, with one additional vow: that SOUND matters. Wear heartbeats, love each other, and celebrate the art and lifestyle of music.”
Wow. Well said. Wonder how well it will be heard. Pardon the pun.
Heartbeats by Lady Gaga are designed to give users a high-performance headphone option that literally doubles as a high-tech fashion accessory or attractive piece of jewelry, said a report.
They feature a multi-faceted, glossy surface and high-tech build materials, with a jewel-inspired earpiece cosmetic. The headphones are available in three separate versions, including a metal body with rose red jewel-shaped earpiece, metal body with all chrome jewel-shaped earpiece and black-on-black body and jewel-shaped earpiece design. The headphones are outfitted with a specially design stylish and tangle-free cable.
The new Heartbeats by Lady Gaga come in a red carrying case and an assortment of eartips designed for comfort and fit. They also feature Monster’s exclusive flat cable design that that integrates into the look and feel of HeartBeats, and also makes them ‘tangle-resistant’.
They will be available in October with different feature options in the price range of $99.95 to $149.95.
