Adele is Named Most Powerful Person In Music




She was the first recipient of the BRIT Awards Critics' Choice and was named the number-one predicted breakthrough act of 2008 in an annual BBC poll of music critics, Sound of 2008. In 2009, Adele won two Grammy Awards, Best New Artist and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance, at the 51st Grammy Awards. Just at 23 years old she’s topped The Guardian’s Music Power 100 list. I guess she didn't give up and kept chasing those pavements.

Adele has been ridiculously successful this year both here and overseas,so this is an accolade she – and all the people who help manage her career – entirely deserve. Here is the entire list and Simon Cowell only made #3

Spotlight On:The New It Girl Jessica Burciaga

She has it all from the girl next door appeal, to extreme sex appeal. I first took notice of her when I saw the Jamie Foxx ft Drake "Fall For Your Type" video and to be honest I had to take a sceond glance because I really thought that she was JLO. It wasnt until recently when I actually found out who this stunning beauty is who looks like she could be Jennifer Lopez's little sister. Jessica Burciaga (born April 11, 1983) is an American model . Her father is Mexican and her mother is French and Irish .
