BG5 -- About to Pop + 'Scratch' Video Premiere



Who: BG5
Video: 'Scratch'
Hail From: Calif.
For Fans Of: The Pussycat Dolls, Girls Aloud

Why They're About to Pop: These California girls have the beach on their minds and sunshine in their future. PopEater is proud to premiere their brand-new video, 'Stratch,' which is a perfect way to get to know Brooke Adams, Noreen Juliano, Mandy Jiroux, Laura New and Dominique Domingo.

Currently, the five-piece is working with Rock Mafia, the producers of such multi-million selling artists as Miley Cyrus and Mariah Carey, but the singing, dancing, high-energy crew have come together from various entertainment backgrounds. From dancing backup for Eminem and Missy Elliot to touring and vlogging with Miley Cyrus to appearing in 'Bring It On' to having a solo record deal as a teenager, these girls know the game. Having gotten their name out there by appearing on 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians,' the new BG5 are fresh off a UK tour and taking it back to the States. See their best moves in the hot new video below.


Watch BG5's 'Scratch' Video

Ten Questions With BG5:

How do your different personalities and tastes come together as a group?

We each have very different personalities and tastes and when we come together we create something completely new and fresh. Our music lends itself to a few different styles within the Pop genre so each of us can put our own vibe into the album.

When did you realize you wanted to be entertainers?

At birth! We all got started in different ways, but each of us as children loved the limelight and wanted to share our love of music and dance.

Do you have any crazy tour stories to share so far?

We had a show and were using in-ear monitors, which are basically like headphones. We could only hear what was coming from our in-ears, not what the crowd heard. Somehow the music started in our in-ear monitors, but the speakers for the audience didn't pick up the music or our microphones. We performed about half of the song and the audience could only see us dancing around, they heard nothing! Eventually one of us took out the in-ears and realized nothing was playing and we just walked off the stage. We must have looked crazy!

What is your song 'Scratch' about?

Noreen: Scratch is about letting go with the music. I love the play on words connecting the 't-t for tat,' you-better-have-my-back attitude with a DJ scratching... Clever, eh? At the end of the day, music will always be there for you.

What was your favorite part while making the video for 'Scratch?'

Brooke: The best part for me was having the opportunity to see everything for which I've worked so hard take shape. The music video shooting process is hard work, but it is definitely one of the pay-offs in an artist's career. Where else do you get to wear outlandish clothes and have crazy make up and hair and do what you love?

What's the hardest outfit you ever had to dance in?

Brooke: That would most definitely be a bikini. They are just not made for dancing.

You've opened up for Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber. Have they (or any other artists) given you words of wisdom?

Brooke: I've been able to meet a ton of artists that I really respect, but one that has really stuck with me was Michael Jackson. I admire the way he was so kind to everyone and had such a big heart. If Michael Jackson -- with everything he accomplished -- was still humble, I'm pretty sure we all can be!

Who would win at a dance off, you guys or Justin Bieber?

We're willing to test that out!

How has Kris Kardashian, her family and your involvement with the show influenced you?

Kris is such an amazing person! The entire Jenner/Kardashian family has been so great to us. We are so lucky! Being on the show was so much fun! It's helped get our name out there and get people interested in knowing more about us.

Do you have any advice for aspiring young artists?

There is always room for new talent. Stay focused, stay grounded, and don't give up. The music industry is far from being easy, but if you're willing to give it your ALL, it is so worth it.

Mystery Missile Launch California Caught On Video – Invenovate

mystery missile california


Last night the sky in southern California was lit up by what appears to be a missile. The event was captured on video taken from a news helicopter from a major television network.


Was the military testing some new weapons off the California coast? The Pentagon says that there was no testing going on in the area by any of the local military bases. The United States government is not really sure what the flying object was, or who may have launched it into the air last night. The United States Defense Department, and others, have said that the object did not appear to be a military type projectile.


Some say that the object may even be an airplane. The event that transpired is being labeled as “unexplained” by officials. It is not being considered as a threat. A jet plane leaves behind it a contrail. A contrail is a trail of condensed water vapor that can be seen coming out of the jet engine. This could be misconstrued as a missile trail. Others have said that the object was moving too slowly to be a missile.

John Mayer Pokes Fun at His 'Stupid Mouth' at VH1 Save the Music Gala [Video]

John Mayer at VH1 Save The Music GalaThe hills were alive with the sound of music Monday night in New York City as the stars paid tribute to Julie Andrews, John Legend and John Mayer, who were all honored at VH1's Save the Music Foundation gala.

Perhaps the most-talked about moment of the evening centered around Mayer's acceptance speech. The Grammy-winning musician insisted he didn't want anything written on the teleprompter because he figured he'd been doing so well speaking off the cuff that he'd continue the trend. "Julie Andrews is here, and I'm making a fool out of myself," Mayer said.

After fumbling through an awkward story about vaginal birth and wine, Mayer got back on track and spoke passionately about why music needs to get back into the classroom. "If you want to stop bullying, give the guy a guitar," he said. Hosted by '30 Rock' actor Cheyenne Jackson, the event helped raise funds and awareness for restoring instrumental music education programs in America's public schools.

The evening was filled with musical performances as well. Kristin Chenoweth performed a special tribute for the 45th anniversary of Rodgers & Hammerstein's 'The Sound of Music' before honoring Andrews. Natasha Bedingfield performed a medley of 'Stripped' and 'Unwritten,' while Good Charlotte's Benji Madden and Joel Madden closed the event by performing with two middle school students. (Adorable!) Lauren Conrad, Common, Melanie Fiona and Jason Mraz were among other celebs who stepped out to support the event.

PopEater hit the red carpet to talk to the evening's biggest stars. Watch >>

Video: Best Quotes from Roger Sterling's 'Mad Men' Memoir

Video: Reading 'Mad Men' Memoir 'Sterling's Gold'A glorious diamond arrived in the mail yesterday, a fusion of some of our biggest interests -- 'Mad Men' and books. It's the memoir of AMC's fictional silver fox Roger Sterling, titled 'Sterling's Gold: Wit & Wisdom of an Ad Man.'

More coffee table book than autobiography, the brief, handy tome consists of almost 200 of actor John Slattery's 'Mad Men' zingers. As Grove Press publisher Morgan Entrekin told Vulture, Sterling "gets all the good lines." We couldn't agree more, which is why the PopEater team picked our favorite pages of the book (easiest thing we've ever done, with chapters on all the important subjects like Drinking, Women and Life) and read them all for a video. Watch the clip after the jump!

New video mocks James, ad campaign

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Cleveland, it turns out, has some very specific ideas about what LeBron James should do.

A video making the rounds on the internet, apparently posted on YouTube by a Cleveland filmmaker, remixes James’ Nike ad in which he asks “What should I do?”

The ad was a response to the backlash James provoked with his nationally televised announcement that he would sign with the Miami Heat after playing seven seasons in Cleveland.

The video portrays different Cleveland sports fans and their disgust with James.

“Boston? Game 5? We watched. You quit,” one fan says in the video, referring to last season’s 32-point loss in the playoffs.

Before tipoff against New Orleans on Friday night, James said he had seen the video.

“It was all right,” he said. “They could have done a better job.”

The video ends with a fan on the street saying “We wanted you to be who you said you’d be.”

That’s immediately followed by a recording of James saying: “I got a goal. And that’s a huge goal and that’s to bring an NBA championship here to Cleveland, and I won’t stop ’til I get it.”

Accompanying that is an image of the iconic ad banner with James’ image and the words “We are all witnesses” on it, falling off a building.
