    9XO turns three; launches Awesome Threesome music block

    MUMBAI: 9X Media’s international English music channel 9XO has lined up some new music and initiatives as it turns three on 24 April, 2015.

     

    The pure play music channel will showcase the best compilation of chart toppers and global artists as the channel’s anniversary offering. The 9XO third anniversary will be promoted across digital and social media platforms.

     

    As part of its three-year celebrations, the channel has launched a new block called 9XO Awesome Threesome. Speaking on the same, 9XO programming head Clyde D’Souza said, “As part of our three year celebrations we want to give our viewers an overdose of what we do best. While viewers continue to experience great music, we’ve created a block called 9XO Awesome Threesome. Over the next couple of weeks you can enjoy three hits from over 15 awesome artists.”

     

    9XO channel head Luke Kenny added, “There is a lot of music available on digital platforms, but due to the clutter sometimes good music is lost. We analysed this trend and launched 9XO. The idea is to provide viewers with the best English music in a clutter free environment and we have succeeded at that. Our viewers have appreciated our music innovations and efforts and that is reflected in their feedback across our digital platforms. We also encourage new talent by providing them our platform OmeGrown, which gives them their break in the music space. Our journey did have few obstacles but with the constant support and feedback from our viewers, the journey has been a pleasant one all throughout.”

     

    Speaking about the promotional activity and advertisers reaction, Kenny said, “The advertisers reaction so far has been really encouraging and fortunately everyone likes what we provide. Our audience is the target audience of many brands and hence through us, a huge segment of 18 – 24 aged population can be reached. Quality music has the potential to breakthrough any blockage and us completing three years is its proof. Our promotional activity reverberates around the social media platform; we run contests throughout the year, which engages the youth. Live events and college fests are the facets that we interactively use for promotions.”

     

    9XO will celebrate its success till 5 May, 2015 with artists such as Miley Cyrus, Sam Smith, Sia, 1D and Beyonce amongst others.

     

    Some of the channel’s innovative programming include 9XO Tweetdown, the first ever Twitter based music countdown show and the artists Social Feed (Twitter and Instagram feeds) on the TV screens during the videos on air.  The channel also brought English music fans the most loved moments and events/original and recorded which landmarks in the journey of the channel became.

     

    “We are looking to involve independent artists more and more, they are yet to be engaged in an optimum way. We want to be the leader when it comes to international interaction, we want to bridge the gap between music lovers and quality performers,” Kenny concludes.

    Celebrate ‘Deal-Wali Diwali’ with CouponDunia

    MUMBAI: Coupon code website CouponDunia has launched a series of campaigns this festival season. Apart from offering 30 exclusive deals on their website, they recently released two videos for their Diwali campaign; one called ‘Deal-Wali Diwali’ and another music video in association with East India Company (EIC).

     

    With their new Diwali campaign – ‘Deal-Wali Diwali’, they are trying to capture consumer’s mindset on giving or even receiving gifts.  Within four days of its launch, the video received over 1 lakh views.

    Talking about the ‘Deal Wali Diwali’ video, CouponDunia Founder and CEO Sameer Parwani said, “CouponDunia’s core brand value lies in helping consumers save money. Festivals and special days provide us an opportunity to make our loved ones happy. It is all about spreading happiness. Now with the online retail industry offering some great deals and discounts, gifting has never been easier. Through this video we have tried to showcase what each one of us feels even while getting a gift from a dear one?”

     

    While the first video deals with gifts and happy part of the festival, the other video addresses and voices the not so pleasant perspective of the common man on how festivals are being celebrated these days.

     

    As the country gears up for the upcoming festivities, people are already dreading the impending traffic jams, surging noise pollution, filthy streets and leftovers of celebrations everywhere.

     

     “I think it is a common problem that all of us our facing today. We all enjoy celebrating festivals but there is a different side to it as well. We loved the way EIC has tried to incorporate the concept of celebration through this video and hence are happy to partner with them in spreading this simple message,” Parwani further added.

     

    On associating with CouponDunia, EIC founder Kunal Rao said, “I’m glad to see corporates get involved in these matters. You could say they are performing corporate social responsibility through a sense of humour! We are glad CouponDunia sees the fun side of life and are very happy to be associated with them”.

     

    The video, a parody of Miley Cyrus’ ‘Wrecking Ball’, is a light-hearted, good-spirited take on this problem includes many familiar faces like Suresh Menon, Ashwin Mushran, Gaurav Kapur, VJ Bani and Jose.

     

    Titled ‘Wrecking God’, the video is shot entirely on iPhone 5S and mixes smart humour with a social message.

  • AP names Jennifer Lawrence ‘Entertainer of the Year’

    AP names Jennifer Lawrence ‘Entertainer of the Year’

    MUMBAI: The battle for the Associated Press (AP) entertainer of the year came down to the Girl on Fire and the Queen of Twerk.

    Jennifer Lawrence edged out Miley Cyrus by one vote in the Associated Press annual survey of its newspaper and broadcast members and subscribers for “Entertainer of the Year”.

    There were 70 ballots submitted by US editors and news directors. Voters were asked to consider who was the most influential on entertainment and cultural front in 2013. Lawrence won 15 votes, Cyrus had 14, Netflix was a close third, earning 13 votes for altering the TV landscape with its on-demand format and hit original series.

    However, Lawrence, who started the year with an Academy Award for best actress, hit it big all through the year first with The Hunger Games Catching Fire and wrapped 2013 with a critically acclaimed performance in David O. Russell’s American Hustle that has just earned Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild Award nominations.

    Lawrence was a favourite of many because of her diverse roles as well as her  Academy Award for Best Actress. She has since been nominated for both a Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild Award for American Hustle.

    The second in the list – Miley Cyrus also made headlines in 2013, but for many different reasons. She made her first splash in August  during the MTV Video Music Awards, but kept her twerking ways for the rest of the year. Cyrus later smoked pot onstage in Europe, continued to undress in many different situations and went through a very public break up with fiancé Liam Hemsworth.

    She also made fashion headlines with her pixie haircut.

  • Mileys Christmas fun on Twitter

    Mileys Christmas fun on Twitter

    While most of the entertainment industry is taking a break from their commercial activities during the festive season, teen pop sensation Miley Cyrus, whose latest Wrecking Ball video has surpassed well over 400 million views on Vevo, has in her signature way, presented herself in a rather festively explicit way!

     

    In New York for the weekend for The Jingle Ball Tour, the singer took some time off to enjoy the snow and flashed a very naughty Christmas photo in the process!

     

    Miley posted herself on Twitter lifting-up her top with two heart-shaped ‘Merry Christmas’ signs covering her boobs.

     

    “Merry Christmas! Thank you NY for being one of the few states to @freethenipple,” she tweeted.

     

    After her image sparked some negative comments Miley added a new tweet trying to explain her actions. “It’s not about getting your t**s out. It’s about equality,” she proclaimed.

     

    The new Christmas Twitter flash is just the latest incident, following on from her performance on Friday evening at Z100’s Jingle Ball 2013 in New York where she twerked with a Christmas tree onstage.

     

    The 21-year-old was watched by thousands whilst she shook her impertinent bottom in front of a lady dressed as the festive tree and covered in silver tinsel and baubles.
    Cyrus has made Claus a very happy Santa!!
