Demi Lovato and Wilmer Valderrama on vacation in the Bahamas

Several media outlets are reporting that X Factor judge Demi Lovato and That 70's Show star Wilmer Valderrama are currently vacationing in the Bahamas.

The two have reportedly been in an on-and-off relationship for the last year or two, however Lovato, 20, has stated several times that she is not interested in having any relationships anytime soon. Despite this, the two are very frequently spotted together, with Valderrama, 32, visiting Lovato on the set of X Factor last month, and reports surfacing in September that the couple has reconciled their relationship.

Lovato's rep attempted to keep the vacay on the DL, by saying on Friday that Demi wasn't in the Bahamas or with Wilmer. Despite this, paparazzi pictures surfaced pretty quickly. Lovato tweeted about her sunburns on Thursday and on Saturday, and on Sunday tweeted "Vacations aren't even fun anymore :(", likely referring to the paparazzi pictures of the former Disney star surfacing onto the web. Lovato later retweeted a tweet from a fan who was vacationing in the same place, saying that the paparazzi were "totally wrong" and that "they should be kicked out".

Fellow X Factor judge, Simon Cowell was also spotted catching some rays, when he was photographed jet-skiing in Barbados on Sunday, with reports stating that Cowell ducked out of U.S. in order to avoid awkward questions regarding the judging panel on the upcoming third season of X Factor USA, with L.A. Reid exiting and Britney Spears reportedly on her way out.

Apple and the public respond to Steve Jobs' death

The world has just got a little darker, losing a man who made it a whole lot brighter.

Steve Jobs, the co-founder of Apple, Inc. and former-CEO of Apple has passed away at the age of 56. Jobs died peacefully in his home after a long battle of pancreatic cancer. Jobs' tragic death was announced Wednesday by Apple. The following message was posted on Apple's website: We are deeply saddened to announce that Steve Jobs passed away today. Steve's brilliance, passion and energy were the source of countless innovations that enrich and improve all of our lives. The world is immeasurably better because of Steve. His greatest love was for his wife, Laurene, and his family. Our hearts go out to them and to all who were touched by his extraordinary gifts.


The public has clearly been shocked by the sudden death. Thousands of people and celebrities all over the world took to twitter to pay their respects.


"Thanks to one of your inventions my life was changed," tweeted Justin Bieber.


"So sad to hear about Steve Jobs," tweeted Demi Lovato, "[He was] A brilliant man. RIP."


For a large majority of Wednesday night, RIP Steve Jobs was a trending topic on Twitter.


"10 years ago, we had Steve Jobs, Bob Hope, and Johnny Cash. Now, we have no Jobs, no Hope, and no Cash" was a popular tweet and retweet.


When Jobs resigned from CEO of Apple back in August, he reportedly left the company with four years of product ideas. The Huffington Post and the Wall Street Journal are reporting that Jobs' private funeral was held, today. Sony Pictures has reportedly purchased movie rights to a new Steve Jobs biography.


We are truly saddened by the loss of such an amazing, intelligent man that contributed so much to the world of technology, and to the world as a whole. He will be missed, but surely not forgotten.


R.I.P. Steve Jobs (1955 - 2011)

Demi Lovato "Skyscraper" Review

Today we are reviewing Demi Lovato's new single off her upcoming third studio album. The song is called Skyscraper and was released, yesterday.

So, the song is just over 3 and a half minutes long, and tells a story of self-empowerment and redemption, with truly emotional lyrics such as 'Do you have to make me feel like there's nothing left of me' and 'Would it make you feel better to watch me while I bleed', and then picks up with very powerful, inspirational words including 'All my windows are broken but I'm standing on my feet' and 'It's a long way down but I'm closer to the clouds up here'.

The song starts off slow, and builds to a strong, upbeat climax, marking the ending of a vocal masterpiece. Mainstream tunes have been packed with songs about self-empowerment, lately, but Lovato has been the only artist yet to bring the theme to such a personal, intimate level.

'Skyscraper' is truly an amazing, emotional comeback for the star, and Lovato couldn't have done any better on the track. The song is without a doubt the best song from the singer yet, and the best song we've heard in sometime.

RATINGS:
Demi's Vocals: 10/10
Background Music: 9.5/10
Lyrics: 9.5/10

Overall mark: 9.7/10
