Opening Ceremony of the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics

Marleen — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 12:42:37 +0000

Nelly Furtado and Bryan Adams had a duet during the opening ceremonies of the Olympics 2010 on February 13th. It’s magnificent how the two made all the ground excited of the grand opening for this year’s Winter Olympics at Vancouver. Both performers sang a song titled “Bang the Drum”

Video before and after the perfomance backstage:

Nelly Furtado will strut her stuff also this Sunday February 14th. The “Maneater” hitmaker’s performance will take place prior to the medal awards ceremony and will air on MuchMusic at 11 p.m. ET.

Billboard Latin awards 2010, 4 nominations!

Marleen — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 20:28:57 +0000

Urban-leaning acts led the finalists’ charge for the 2010 Billboard Latin Music Awards, with Tito “El Bambino” competing for 18 awards for his album “El Patrón” (Siente/Universal) and the single “El Amor.” Following in sheer number of finalist slots are reggaetón duo Wisin & Yandel, up for 14 awards and urban/bachata stars Aventura, up for 12 awards. Regional Mexican singer/songwriter Espinoza Paz is a finalist in eight awards while Luis Fonis, Banda el Recodo and La Arrolladora Banda El Limón are up for six award each.

The Billboard Latin Music Awards, presented by State Farm, will be broadcast live April 29 from the Puerto Rico Coliseum on the Telemundo network, marking the first time the awards show‹the top-rated special on the Telemundo network–travels to Puerto Rico. The awards are the culmination of the Billboard Latin Music Conference, taking place April 26-29 at the Condado Plaza Hotel in San Juan ( www.billboardlatinconference.com). This year’s top finalists reflect a radio landscape where formats and genres increasingly overlap and where pop and tropical stations are increasingly playing urban beats. In effect, urban music, a novelty in the Latin arena just five years ago, is increasingly blending with pop and tropical music for a hybrid that crosses musical boundaries.

Other multiple finalists included Shakira, up for five awards, and Paulina Rubio and Nelly Furtado, up for four awards each.

Finalists to the Billboard Latin Music Awards were announced during Telemundo’s morning show, “Levántate,” with different artists reading finalists live from four different cities.

Fifth new album: LIFESTYLE

A Hockey musical gets Nelly Furtado

Marleen — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 22:18:58 +0000

Score: A Hockey Musical just got nelly.

Nelly Furtado, that is.

The Victoria-born singer will appear in a supporting role in Michael McGowan’s musical about Canada’s national sport. Furtado will join other previously announced music stars such as Olivia Newton-John, Hawksley Workman, Marc Jordan, and Dave Bidini.

She’ll be playing an ardent hockey fan, whose love for the sport will contrast with the dismay of the highbrow parents (Newton-John and Jordan) of a boy who rockets to stardom after being signed to a junior hockey team.

In a press release, McGowan stated that he wrote the role specifically for Furtado: “Nelly is an incredible entertainer and, after speaking with her, I realized that she fully relished embracing her inner hockey fanatic.”

There’s no word yet on whether or not she’ll be writing and performing her songs, but previously, her song “Forca” (sung in both English and Portuguese) became the official anthem of the 2004 European Football Championship.
