In case you missed it, Selena Gomez jumped from Hollywood Records over the weekend, where she signed in 2008, to Interscope Records (why do these companies still call themselves "record" instead of entertainment companies?).
The split was totally expected for most of 2014, with the release of a greatest hits CD, "The Heart Wants What It Wants," fulfilling her contract with Hollywood.
Gomez joins artists like Madonna, Eminem, U2, Dr. Dre and more at Interscope. Hollywood is left with only two prominent acts, Demi Lovato and R5.
"1989" is also expected to be Taylor Swift's last CD for Big Machine label. It is possible/probable she too is in discussion with Interscope.
Can't Be Tamed will not be at the top of the "album" charts on July 1. That pleasure will go to Eminem's Recovery CD. It looked like Cyrus would be #1 out of the box, but as this blog has witnessed since last fall, Cyrus has become as relevant as her predecessor, Hilary Duff. Whenever Cyrus is featured here, readership goes down. Could explain why Eminem will top her. Sure she bought his CD, too.
