Tue, 22 May 2012 12:00:00 PDT

By Editor-in-Chief, Anita Chatterjee With the anticipation for his next album, and his new track , " Im All Yours," featuring Pitbull, we had to catch up with R&B sensation Jay Sean to see what's going on, and what's next. Read the interview below. I'm am going to kick off with asking you about the photograph you tweeted of you and Akon. There's been a lot of buzz about a picture. Are you guys good friends, and is there a collaboration between the two of you in the works? JS: Yeah I guess now you can call use old buddies, we have bumped into each other at so many events over the years, and he has seen what I have been through and has been supportive. This particular picture we took was at a LA DJ's birthday party. We aren't working on a collaboration, we just met at the party. Aside from the photograph everyone's been buzzing about your new single, " I'm All Yours," featuring Pitbull. I got a sneak peak of your music video for it that you shot in Miami. Tell me about the shoot? It was nightmare soaking in a hot tub and having all these beautiful women around.... no, I'm just kidding! It was a lot of fun,when I hear the song it makes me feel free, and the video turned out just how I imagined it. When I recorded the track I pictured blue skies, rich warm weather, so I thought what better place then to shoot the video then in Miami. So that's what we did. It's now been a few years that you have had a label deal here in the States. What's next? Right now my focus is on this album, but I am writing a lot to now, and I have written for artists around the world, boy bands, ex factor artists, and many more. I am also looking into other ventures which you will hear more about in July. It's great that you are focusing on the next album, are we going to hear you do some different things on this album, like rap like you use to way before you made it in the US? A lot of fans complain that they miss the R&B and rap music you came out with before your label deal in the States. I rapped over 10 years ago, my rapping days are behind me, and now I only rap when i'm drunk and free styling. Hahaha, just kidding. My fans really want more of the R& B genre from me, I know that because I talk to my fans and know what they want. I offered a lot of R&B on my album The Mistresses which I released. I had to call that album a mixtape so I could give it away for free without being sued. But, it was an album, and on my next album you will hear R&B tracks, as well as those feel good pop tracks that I know my fans love. One of your tracks is all about the year 2012. What are your goals for this year? Expansion in other fields and other ventures. In July you will hear about the new things I am working on. Its been 10 years in the game, so I want to expand in other things Are you going to try out acting like other musicians have in the past? I hope so, my true fans know about my goofy side, and I think I would be good in a comedy. To wrap things up, do you have a message for you fans? You guys know how much i love you, if it wasn't for you I wouldn't be in the game for 10 years News Link

Social rank, press attention,money earned, and TV/radio presence are a few of the factors that go into determining who makes the Forbes Celebrity 100 list , and JLo obviously has as she topped the list. JLo stole the top spot from Lady Gaga who topped the charts last year, and is number 5 this year.

Oprah Winfrey is number 2 on the list, and Kim Kardashian, and Rihanna debuted on the list as well. In regards to picking Lopes Forbes wrote, "['American Idol'] gave her a platform to promote her music and turn her image around. It didn't hurt that she also split from her husband, Marc Anthony. Suddenly a single mother, Lopez lapped up the media attention and scored lucrative endorsement deals with companies like L'Oreal and Gillette. She now has a line of clothing at Kohl's, a top-selling fragrance and she was able to secure a nice bump — to $20 million — on her' Idol' salary for a second season. With 6.6 million followers on Twitter and 12 million fans on Facebook, she's also proved a master of social media." Do you think Forbes made the right choice? News Link
