Lady Gaga Fragrance On The Way

Anthony Jones – AHN Entertainment Reporter

Los Angeles, CA, United States (AHN) – What do little monsters smell like? We’ll find out soon enough. Lady Gaga will join pop titans like Britney Spears and Beyoncé currently enjoying the sweet smell of success with the release of her very own fragrance.

Lady Gaga will team up with global beauty brand Coty Inc. for her first outing in the celebrity perfume business. Coty also helped launch fragrances for Gwen Stefani, Jennifer Lopez, Celine Dion, and Kylie Minogue, among others.

The scent will be developed by the masterminds at Coty along with Gaga, as Creative Director, and the rest of her Haus of Gaga team. The currently untitled fragrance will unveil more details closer to its release date. It’s currently expected to hit stores in the spring of 2012.

“The marketing behind Lady Gaga’s fragrance will be unprecedented and groundbreaking,” said Steve Mormoris, Sr. VP of Global Marketing for Coty Beauty. “We are working toward distilling the brilliance of Lady Gaga into a fragrance that delivers a breathtaking olfactory experience and a timeless, enduring packaging design that is part of Lady Gaga’s overall artistic sensibility.”

We don’t know what olfactory means, but we can’t wait to see what the bottle looks like! In the meantime, Gaga continues her “Monster Ball” world tour through 2011 and is set to release her new album, tentatively titled “Born This Way,” next year as well.

VH1′s New Show “Dance Cam Slam” Premieres Oct. 26

Stephanie Sims – AHN Entertainment Reporter

Santa Monica, CA, United States (AHN) – There’s a new dance show in town…and it’s no “Dancing With the Stars.” VH1 is looking for the most outrageously talented and wildly entertaining dancers from across the country to compete in a new weekly dance competition show called “Dance Cam Slam.” Anyone with a web cam and a high speed internet connection can audition at DanceCam.VH1.com.

In this show, contestants compete in three rounds, but they never need to travel to the show’s studio in Los Angeles – they compete from the comfort of their own homes and simply dance in front of their web cam.

The judges for the show are Brandon Henschel, a choreographer and dancer who has appeared in Britney Spears’ “Oops! I Did It Again” music video and several movies, and Jordan Feldman, an actor who has appeared in “I Love You, Man” and “Entourage.”

“Dance Cam Slam” will be hosted by Marianela Pereyra, who has hosted several shows on Fuse TV, as well as “Poker After Dark” on NBC. Unlike other hosts of dancing-related shows, Pereyra can actually relate to dance – her parents were professional tango dancers, and she herself is classically trained in ballet.

However, this show is very unlike “Dancing With the Stars,” she says. “‘Dancing With the Stars’ is all about glam and has a celebrity component. This show is all about the viewers and they’re pulled through by viewers, and they’re just dancing in front of their webcams letting it rip. They don’t know how many people are watching them, and that’s what makes it so fun.”

Dancers will compete in three rounds, and judges score the dancers based on the overall entertainment value of their performance on a scale of one to ten and the best combined score moves on. Contestants will all appear in individual windows on a giant video screen in our Los Angeles studio.

During the final round, viewers at home will vote live at DanceCam.VH1.com and by text messaging on VH1 Mobile to determine which of the three finalists will win the $5,000 cash prize and return next week to defend the crown. Viewers at home can also comment on the dancers live via Twitter and possibly even see their tweets appear in the show.

Pereyra says she’s very excited for the show to start, and even though it premieres on Tuesday, Oct. 26 at 10 pm – which is the time slot following “Dancing With the Stars” – she’s not worried.

“You never know what the judges are going to say, and you never know what people will do to prove they’re the best,” she said. “I’m a big fan of improv, and this show is all about how entertaining you are and what you can bring to the table. We’re looking for people who will blow us away.”
