Beyonce’s pregnancy has helped boost and raise her album sales. Music marketing is something that the singers rely on when it comes to concerts, tours, promotions, and sales to boost their record sales that are out there. Beyonce’ however, has brought something new to marketing in the music industry – pregnancy. Her fourth album that she released in June had a strong start when it started selling, but then dropped off after a month of being on the shelves. This is something that shouldn’t have to happen if they have better marketing in the end. Explore Talent  has become the world’s largest talent resource site on the Internet.

She finally announced her pregnancy at Sunday’s VMAs, and it brought her album back to the top ten list for iTunes. Her two songs stole the number five spot on the list. Last week it moved out of the top ten spot, until her announcement on Sunday where it was moved back up. ExploreTalent is a professional social-networking site that connects actors, models, musicians and dancers in the United States

It is expected to sell anywhere from 30,000 and 40,000 copies, which is close to a 40 percent increase in sales from last week’s 20,000 album sales. There are favorite songs on the album that do better than others, but for the most part, they are selling albums left and right after Sunday’s announcement.

This announcement was also the most talked about topic over Twitter and on their records. It registered in around 8,000 tweets per second once Beyonce’ hit the stage during the VMAs. This is definitely something that was news and sharing worthy in the end. Jay Z and Beyonce’ made the most of their wonderful news and kept rumors quiet during this time, then they dropped the baby bomb news right in the center stage of attention during this night at the VMAs. They did some tummy rubbing, and some background screaming from Kanye West. A lot of people could not keep quiet about this news and this is why it was posted everywhere. Twitter was definitely one of the best things out there during the VMAs, this was not the only thing that was posted during the time.

This is something that a lot of people did not see coming, yet the rumors were there. We find out in the end that it was not just a rumor, but it is actually true. This was exciting for a lot of Beyonce’ and Jay Z fans. This allows fans to get more deeply involved in their baby bump journey since we all know about it now. We will be hearing more about their news in the days to come, and hopefully get to hear more about their baby news. Of course, for the time being they are enjoying the attention and the sales of their albums because of the news. This goes to show that perhaps them coming out about it was something that was good for their sales, their money situation, and just plain old letting people know so we do not have to worry anymore about the rumors out there and finally be content with the information that was given.

Westerns are still out there even though you haven’t really seen any come out in the past months and even years. They still do have their moments in the Hollywood scene. Of course, you have to keep the ever loving ‘Cowboys and Aliens’ and ‘True Grit’ in mind when it comes to western like movies, and what effect they have on their viewers. Explore Talent provides talented actors, models, musicians, and dancers with a database of auditions

Another project is coming to town when it comes to bringing the western heat. ‘The Creed of Violence’ is the new talked about western script that has new flavor from the wild, wild west. It is based on the novel in 2010 from the cult author Boston Teran. It definitely attracted the attention of Leonardo DiCaprio that wanted to play in it as soon as he took one look at the script. He is as eager as ever to play one of the biggest lead roles. Although this was said from one of the actors friends, and could not say out loud publicly because they do not want to speak for the actor. ExploreTalent coaches you and helps you obtain the discipline you need to succeed in the entertainment industry.

DiCaprio has been offered one of the lead parts, but has yet to accept it or know whether or not he is going to accept it.

This is one of the biggest movies that have been in development next to ‘In the Bedroom’ from the director Todd Field that has been worked on for years, such as ‘Cowboys and Aliens.’ The film is being set up and shot in Universal. Spokespeople for DiCaprio declined to have any comments on the upcoming film and whether or not the actor is going to persue the given part. ‘Creed’ tells the tall tell story of the 1910 era story of a criminal that is named Rawbone. He tried to take many different types of weapons into Mexico as a smuggler. This was part of the country’s revolution, but he ends up getting caught and then is brought back by a government agent. This agent, as it turns out, shares a secret past with the criminal. ExploreTalent.com  has acting casting calls and modeling auditions all over the US

DiCaprio can play either of these two main characters says one of the sources on the inside. If he decides to play the role of the government agent, it will show his pattern of law enforcement roles in the movies that he does that range from ‘Shutter Island’ to the upcoming ‘Hoover’ movie that is a historical biopic film. If he decides to play the bad guy or criminal in this film than it marks just the second time that he goes back to the bad and harsh time of American History in order to do so. He is even looking to take on one of the villains in Quentin Taratino’s ‘Django Unchained.’

This is something that we will have to wait and see when the movie comes out. Depending on the choice that DiCaprio makes, you can decide whether or not this is the right move for him to make. We will wait and see in anxious desperation for the movie that is out there.
