NEW VIDEO: JESSIE J - 'WILD'
This could be the video. I hope not. I LOATHE b&w videos. And also wondering if it is pure coincidence that this ‘Single Ladies’ looking video was directed by Emil Nava, whose brother Jake shot….’Single Ladies’.

I LEFT MY HEART IN SAN FRANCISCO
So I became kind of obsessed with this guy when I was in San Francisco last year. I would see him go go dancing in clubs and working in MR S Leather. The first time we ‘met’ was when he sat in front of me at a Death Becomes Her screening and as he sat down I realised he wasn’t wearing any underwear. #TrueLove

HAPPY HARVEY MILK DAY, Y'ALL!
“If a bullet should enter my brain, let that bullet destroy every closet door. You’ve got to give them hope!” Our squirrelfriend Sister Roma and others read Harvey Milk’s LEGENDARY speech which is still so relevant after the recent spat of gay bashings, where we are still fighting for the right to marry the person we love and have equal rights in general.

NEW MUSIC: KANYE WEST - 'NEW SLAVES'
Kanye is back. This is set to be projected in cities around the world at various times over the next 48 hours. Not sure about the melody but ♥ the lyrics… ‘I’d rather be a dick than a swallower.’ ‘Fuck you and your Hamptons’ house, I’ll fuck your Hamptons’ spouse. Came on her Hampton blouse and in her Hampton mouth.’

THE BACK BUILDING HANGS OUT WITH FRANCOIS SAGAT
It’s been a big week for Francois as he announced his retirement from porn. Personally we always preferred the arty shit anyway - I’d much rather see him mime to Mariah or pose for Mr Richardson. But it was an outlet that was an interesting one and I liked that he stayed true to it even as he pursued other angles of his career. Multi-faceted Francois. Anyway, we’ve interviewed...

NEW TRAILER: BEHIND THE CANDELABRA
I thought this was only being shown on HBO. Looks like it got an upgraaaaaaaaaaaade and is hitting the multiplexes on 7th June. Looks fun and fabulous and I want to see it - even if it does mess with my Michael Douglas/Basic Instinct fantasy. Just the thought of him in that jumper in the club…*spafs*

NEW MUSIC: SIA - 'LOVED ME BACK TO LIFE'
Hurrah, Sia’s knocked out a ‘Rihanna’ hit and kept it for herself. Will the new album be low key quirky pop or mega bucks, mega production ‘I’m a pop star and I’m ready for my close up’?

OUTBACK WITH...RUPAUL
FOLLOW THE BACK BUILDING ON FACEBOOK AND TWITTER. I love RuPaul. I still remember the first time I saw her in some magazine on the back of the school bus - I was taken aback. The blonde hair. Those legs. Those dresses??! All sickening, darling! So, as with anyone I love, when it comes to interview them, I want it to be a piece I can be proud of. Plus, like anyone who has been in the game over 20...

NEW MUSIC: JENNIFER LOPEZ FEAT. PITBULL
The shade continues. It’s only been just over 48 hours since Mariah released ‘#Beautiful’, and BAM JLo is already back getting hunty.  Mariah has gone for old school RnB, JLO has gone for the tried and tested RedOne. Which do you prefer? JLo or Mariah? WHAT’S THAT, MARIAH?

COMING SOON: OUR INTERVIEW WITH RUPAUL
‘My goal in life is to just have a good fucking time and enjoy myself. If people find inspiration in what I’m doing then, ‘Right on!’  I’ve got to get through this life myself and find something that is going to get me out of the house. I am inspired by laughter, peace, joy and love.’

ALEXIS KNOX: HER HAIR IS FULL OF SECRETS
When people ask what The Back Building is about, I usually say ‘Sex and Music’. But now, after this week we get to throw Fashion into the mix. We’ve had interviews with one of our favourite up and coming male models Christopher Camplin, the creative brand strategist that is Nik Thakkar and now super stylist Alexis Knox. Alexis styles arguably two of The X Factor’s coolest...

NEW MUSIC: THE SATURDAYS VS B*WITCHED
This may not mean much to those outside the UK but B*Witched are back and the song is really good! Barbarellas? All is forgiven… The Saturdays are also back with a new song called ‘Gentleman’.

ZACHARY QUINTO GETS MORE WORK AFTER COMING OUT
After seeing Star Trek on Friday, our Zachary Quinto obsession has reached new heights so it’s nice hearing this. “I haven’t stopped working, I’ve only worked more since I came out…” What’s your excuse now, Rupert Everett?

NIK THAKKAR: HIS HAIR IS FULL OF SECRETS
FOLLOW THE BACK BUILDING: FACEBOOK/TWITTER When I came back from my travels last year I realised I no longer wanted to be working a desk job, 9-5. No, I wanted to do a bunch of stuff all at the same time - it appealed to my melodramatic nature. Whenever I meet someone who feels the same I ask them ‘So what exactly do you say you do?’ My favourite answer so far has been ‘I...

CHER SINGS WITH HER MUM!
Been singing to Cher all day today and just found this - her singing with her mother on Ellen from the other day. Well I say singing but…Cher misses her cue, fluffs the beginning and the pair mime the whole way through. Lolz.

WHO IS THE GREATEST ON THE GREAT GATSBY?
I used to make YouTube clips like this for my artists when I worked for Universal. It was the bane of my life as I had to do Photoshop to make the image, then use panels on YouTube to hyperlink track names. Anyway that’s not very interesting. What IS interesting is this new sampler for the new Great Gatsby soundtrack. By now we all know it features Beyonce doing Wino with Andre 3000,...
