Whitney Houston -- Voice Cracks Are Wack

Whitney Houston sang at her first big comeback concert today for GMA. How was it? Well, she had the audience sing all the high notes for her. They did great.



As for reports Whitney cut the gig short because of a strained voice, her rep tells TMZ "She was only ever committed to two songs, so she actually extended the show to the third and fourth songs."

Beyonce's Dad Was Right -- Hoax, Hoax, Hoax!!!

BeyonceBeyonce has officially been cleared of all bad singing charges -- the atrocious supposed "board mix" of her performance on "The Today Show" last year was altered after all.

Just as Mathew Knowles told us, the audio clip that many people believed was leaked from "Today" was indeed a fake.

In fact, TMZ found the person behind the prank who was surprised it went as far as it did, saying, "It's a little bit crazy. No one in their right mind would sound like that, and no one would cheer for someone singing like that."

Apparently, the dude never went to an Ashlee Simpson concert...

Beyonce's Daddy to Haters: You're All Idiots

Beyonce Knowles Beyonce's dad is on the warpath against the people attacking his daughter for the supposed "board mix" audio of B singing at "The Today Show" -- claiming all doubters of her ability are "idiots."

In a fiery statement to TMZ, Mathew Knowles, who's also Bey's manager, says his daughter was set up. It's one of the best statements we've ever gotten.

"If no one took the time to look at the biggest Inauguration in the history of America then shame on them.

If no one took the time to listen to Beyonce sing 'America the Beautiful' and 'At Last' at the Neighborhood Ball for the first dance of President Obama and the First Lady, and they question Beyonce's vocal ability, they've gotta be an idiot.

At 12 years into her career, the last thing someone should be questioning is her vocal ability.

That would be like questioning if Kobe Bryant could shoot a jump shot. The vocals were obviously altered."

'Britain's Got Talent' Lady Needs Support

Internet sensation Susan Boyle will probably get a record contract after wowing the world -- and Simon Cowell -- with her singing on "Britain's Got Talent" this week, but what she could really use is a brassiere.



Susan Boyle

The 47-year-old got nippy outside her Scotland home.

Susan's natural talent is sure to bolster the music industry's sagging sales.

Offend Friends, Keep Grandma Happy With YouMail

YouMailThat sexually explicit, curse-word laden outgoing voicemail message you have on your cell phone might be appropriate for your friends to hear, but it's probably not so perfect for your family pastor. You could go the safe route and leave a bland message, but is it really worth it to up your cell phone's lame factor just to please your grandparents?

Well, a new feature called YouMail will help you keep those old fogies in your life appeased while allowing you to create a voicemail that truly showcases your personality. With YouMail, users can create a unique outgoing voicemail messages for every single contact in your phone -- including friends, family or the boss that calls at 4am to see if you can come in ten minutes early. The service even allows you to check your voicemail by way of the web. But the coolest feature has the DITCHMAIL feature, which will actually hang up on unwanted callers after your custom greeting for them is played. Perfect for that ex, friend who has too much time on their hands, or evil arch-enemies. Imagine this, "Hey Dad, thanks a lot for chopping my hand off, jerk. Hope your Deathstar explodes ... click."

If you act quickly, the company is offering free, yeah we said free, accounts for beta users. But before you all rush out and get your very own free YouMail account, remember that beta software is actually test software that's not quite ready for general use. So when your mom gets that naughty voicemail message intended for your girlfriend/boyfriend, don't blame TMZ.
