Hailing from Murfreesboro, TN, How I Became the Bomb ar a band blend time of origin synth pop and uptight indie rock with influences ranging from spaghetti Western picture show wads and video game music to ABBA and Electric Light Orchestra to make music that's witty, smart, and just a little unnerving. How I Became the Bomb were launched in 2005, when Jon Burr (vocals) and Andy Spore (drums), friends wHO were attending Middle Tennessee State University in Murfreesboro, got unitedly one evening to make some music for the playfulness of it. Burr's roommate Denis Deck united in on guitar, and the ternion were happy enough with the results to sample making more sounds in public. Following the enlisting of trained pianist and synthesiser instrumentalist Adam Richardson, the group's flake sound began to conduct form, and with the accession of bassist Ricky Bizness, How I Became the Bomb were born. How I Became the Bomb's first-class honours degree gig was a chaotic show at a bar featuring exotic dancers (which is against the law in Murfreesboro), just it didn't take long for word to gap about the group on the Nashville independent music view, and in front long the band was making the rounds of Music City's stone clubs. After sharing bills with most of Nashville and Murfreesboro's star resistance bands, How I Became the Bomb teamed with producer Jason Bullock to record a six-song EP, Let's Go! The EP became a top-seller at independent record stores in Tennessee, and the ring began winning international clap for its angular music, mordant wit, and crisp outfits.

Strictly star blamed herself for affair

'Strictly Come Dancing' star Alesha Dixon has revealed that she blamed herself for her husband's affair.
The 29-year-old singer told Company magazine that she was devastated when she found out that her husband, rapper MC Harvey, was having an affair with singer Javine Hylton.
Dixon said: "It was like my whole world had just collapsed around me. I thought, 'what have I done to deserve this?'"
"I'm a big believer in karma, and I felt I must have done something to invite it into my life. I tried to take the blame."
The former Misteeq singer said she was also angry after recently discovering that former bosses had wanted her to shed some weight.
"I found out the other day that, a while ago, some old bosses asked someone to have a word with me about losing weight. It's disgusting."
She said: "I'm not overweight and I'm not skinny, so to tell me to lose weight - what kind of message is that to girls?"
Dixon also revealed that she put her wedding dress on eBay after her marriage fell apart.
"It turned out the person who bid for it was a hoaxer, so I took it off eBay and never put it back up," she said.

Britney Spears Las Vegas Comeback Is Off?

It looks as if Britney Spears may not be heading to Vegas after all.

Rumours of a Sin City performance emerged earlier this month, after the singer was spotted dining with Palms Hotel & Casino owner George Maloof Jr. in Los Angeles.
However, her former manager Larry Rudolph – who patched up his relationship with the singer earlier this year - has refuted reports she is in secret negotiations to stage a major comeback spectacular in Las Vegas.

He tells the Las Vegas Review Journal, "She's not here (in Las Vegas) and she's not coming in. I wouldn't lie to you."
Yesterday a Los Angeles court heard that Brit is still incapable of participating in any legal proceedings, with her attorney telling the court that her doctor hopes to carry out "additional testing in the not-too-distant future".
