New Layout

Posted on Jul 01, 2009 by Max • 1 Comments

OK, so I knew it wouldn't be long before I was itching to make a layout with the new promos, I just didn't think it'd be so quickly haha. I hope you all like the new layout, I know it looks VERY similar to the old one with certain aspects of it and that's just because I did use parts of the old layout to piece it together. I hope you like it, and I'm working on putting a new picture as POTM in the sidebar!

Don't forget to pre-order "Battlefield" on iTunes now (click on the album cover at the top) and also remember to check out the new promos, posted in the update below!

No sooner did I wish for it, then I found it haha. In the previous post I just stated how I hoped we'd be getting to see some of them soon, and what do you know! After browsing around a bit, I found 4 and she looks stunning in each of them!

I didn't tag them or resize them because I didn't want to ruin the great quality, I'm so excited! I can't wait for more to be released in this good of quality, especially the album cover pic!

Here's a cool video that goes behind the scenes of the shoot for "Battlefield," so we get some previews of what we can expect in the album booklet and hopefully some of them will be released or leaked so I can post them in the gallery.

"Battlefield" Album Sampler

Posted on Jun 30, 2009 by Max • 1 Comments

Yes, here's a video that has been released that has a short sample of each of the songs featured on the standard edition of "Battlefield".

I'm so excited, I'm definitely going to be listening to this over and over for the next 21 days! They all sound so good, I just cannot wait to hold this album and play it all night long haha.

And in case anyone else caught it like I did, yes that is a cover of "Don't Let It Go To Your Head" originally recorded by Fefe Dobson for her unreleased album "Sunday Love." I love her version so I'm glad Jordin did it, I know I'll love hers too.

Yay, we can finally pre-order "Battlefield" on iTunes now! They have a choice between standard edition, $9.99, or deluxe edition, $13.99:

I'm so glad they are releasing it on one of the versions, it will be available for iTunes PRE-ORDER ONLY so make sure to reserve your copy of the deluxe edition, because for only $4 more you are getting way more bang for your buck! And plus, just seeing all that you get should convince any Jordin fan!

Jordin Sparks - "Battlefield" Deluxe Edition Cover Art HQ

Posted on Jun 28, 2009 by Max • 0 Comments

I have added a HQ image of the cover art for the deluxe edition of "Battlefield to the gallery. Now that we see the full picture, I LOVE it, I really wish they would have used the full for the standard though. I can definitely accept it as the deluxe though, I'll be purchasing both anyways haha.

Please, if you do post this somewhere else credit Jordin-Online.com. Normally I wouldn't really care but I pieced this together like puzzle pieces off of Amazon and it took forever haha. It was worth it though, she looks amazing.

And I swear, gallery update coming really soon. I saved a bunch of pics earlier today I just haven't gotten the chance to sit down and resize/create thumbnails for/upload them. Very soon I hope!

Jordin Discusses New Album, Fame, and Auto-Tune

Posted on Jun 27, 2009 by Max • 2 Comments

Here's an interesting little interview/article where Jordin discusses some interesting topics!

Even though she went platinum with her self-titled 2007 debut, the Arizona native still feels like she’s fighting an uphill battle.

“Personally, I don’t like Auto-Tune,” says the singer, reached at a Manhattan hotel. “I don’t feel like I need it. Sometimes I can tell when the producers and the engineers want to use it and I ask them to turn it off. Obviously they can touch up a vocal if something’s wrong, but I want people to hear me as I am.”

A plus-sized singer with pinup-girl good looks, she’s someone women of every body type can relate to. And of all the pop singers to emerge this decade, she seems the least likely to fall down drunk. Sparks credits family for keeping her in check.

“I’ve definitely seen how crazy fame can be, but I have people around me who will always tell me the truth and let me know if my head’s getting too big,” she says. “Sometimes the pressure of it all does get to me, like when people say, ‘Oh my gosh, she’s so huge.’ I’m just like, ‘Are you kidding me?’ I don’t understand why that’s such a big deal, but it is. I have to understand that people are always going to talk; that’s the nature of the industry.”

Battlefield marks something of a comeback for the singer, who suffered a career-threatening inflammation of her vocal cords last April. Now fully recovered, Sparks looks back on the injury as a wake-up call.

“That was one of the scariest things I’ve ever gone through in my life,” she explains. “Singing has always been what’s made me happy. When my voice was in jeopardy of either not sounding the same or being gone forever, I was ready to do whatever it took to get better. I’m trying to make sure it never happens again, because I don’t know what I would do if I didn’t have my voice.”

I recommend reading the full article, it's so good! And I'm so glad she refuses to use Auto-Tune, while it was interesting at first it seems most songs now-a-days feature it and it's really getting completely overdone. And also with the article came an AMAZING new promo pic, she looks so good:

Jordin Freaked Out By Cell Phone Stalker

Posted on Jun 27, 2009 by Max • 0 Comments

This is kind of creepy. I wouldn't say it's necessarily a stalker, but it's a seriously obsessed fan desperate to get in contact with her.

Jordin Sparks has a stalker.

The 'Battlefield' singer - who won US TV talent show 'American Idol' in 2007 - revealed she started getting strange phone messages after one of her friends posted her number on the internet as a joke.

She explained to Sony Ericsson's Pocket TV: "I had the same cell phone number since seventh grade up to last summer, so a lot of people had my number. Somebody thought it would be funny to post it on MySpace. Loads of people got my number, and I had this person texting me going, 'I know this is you. I know this is you, why don't you answer? I know this is you, why don't you answer? I'm going to keep calling you.' I was like, 'Oh my God!' and I had people leaving me voice messages and text messages, so in the end I changed my number."

That's really creepy, I'd have been freaked out too haha. That sucks that she had to change the number as well, that makes things a nuisance with having to get everyone who had your old number (that you wanted to have it) the new one.

Jordin Twitters On Michael Jackson's Death

This is a really sad day, I can't believe it's the end for one of the biggest icons in pop music ever! He has created so many hit singles it's just unbelievable and so surreal to see that he has passed. Jordin posted on Twitter, like many celebrities, regarding his death:

Jordin Sparks: "Omg I'm bawling right now. Michael...."

R.I.P. Michael Jackson, 1958-2009.
