Between touring with One Direction and recording with Flo Rida, Olly Murs has had a pretty terrific 2012 -- and if he has anything to say about it, it's only the beginning of the U.K. singer's ascent to worldwide crossover success.
New Year's Rockin' Eve just got a bit more rockin'. OneRepublic, Carly Rae Jepsen and Flo Rida -- among others -- have been added to the iconic show's roster this year.
Flo Rida is one festive guy. Aside from bringing the party to Rockefeller Plaza yesterday (Nov. 19), he also sat down for a chat with the show's Backstage Pass series, blowing the 'Whistle' on everything from food comas to football to his romantic life. And we hate to break it to you, but it was cold enough for him to leave his shirt on for once.
The stars, like Lea Michele, Bella Thorne, Ne-Yo, will.i.am and Flo Rida, came out for the 2012 Do Something Awards, which were held in Santa Monica, California last night (Aug. 19).
The awards recognize the most charitable people, places and events of the past year. So it’s refreshing in that it’s not another ceremony where Hollywood pats itself on the back for being talented and good-looking. Instead, good works are celebrated.
We all know that Flo Rida loves to show off his muscular physique when he’s rocking the mic. And if you dance to any of his chart-topping hits like ‘Whistle’ and ‘Good Feeling,’ you can certainly work up a sweat. Well, guess what? Flo Rida plans to get his fans in shape with a workout DVD.
Flo Rida is one of the most ubiquitous hit makers today. You pretty much can’t go a day (or, let’s be real, an hour) without hearing one of his tracks on Top 40 radio or at a club. What’s remarkable is that every single song, while having similar elements — a killer beat, infectious hook and signature flow — has its own distinctive elements, whether it be a unique voice on the hook like Sia in ‘Wild Ones’ or a tongue-in-cheek theme like ‘Hey Jasmin.’
