Katy Perry's 'Teenage Dream' is certified Platinum in the Philippines

Tweet

International Pop Star Katy Perry finished the success of her CALIFORNIA DREAMS Concert Tour in the Philippines where she sashayed her massive tunes in a blue wig, peacock feathers and all that glitz and glamorous outfit and started 2012 with a firework. However, the 27-year-old singer-songwriter has truly gotten her gift from her Pinoy fans because her ‘Teenage Dream’ album has finally been certified platinum in the Philippines.

Handed out by Polyeast Records led by it’s Operations Manager Mr. Jesmon Chua, the official licensee of EMI Music International in the country, Katy Perry accepted her platinum award after her show last January 22, 2012 at the SM Mall of Asia Concert Grounds. EMI Music and Polyeast Records are also delighted to announce that after three years of Katy chart dominance, second album‘Teenage Dream spawned a record-breaking five #1 singles on the Hot 100 and earned Katy Perry the title of being the only female artist to achieve that feat as she matched Michael Jackson’s similar historic accomplishment with his ‘Bad’ album in 1988. The latest single “The One That Got Away” might also have a chance to the first six Hot 100 chart-toppers and a possibility to break Michael Jackson’s record.

Bringing the total hauls to more than 30, 000 copies sold in the Philippines, songs that did it for Teenage Dream ’were the radio-favourite “Teenage Dream”,”T.G.I.F. (Last Friday Night),” which joined “California Gurls,” the title track, “Firework” and “E.T.” on Katy’s hit parade. The sugary pop princess first graced Manila in November 2009with a sold-out concert performing her peppy, irresistible songs from the debut album “One of The Boys.”

Recently, ‘Teenage Dream’ was nominated at the 2011 Grammy Awards ceremony for Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album. Katy Perry has also been nominated  for three American Music Awards, including Artist of the Year.

You can still get Katy Perry’s award-winning albums "One of the Boys" and "Teenage Dream"  still available in all record bars nationwide released by Polyeast Records.

Djokovic beats Nadal to win Australian Open

Tweet

MELBOURNE -- World No. 1 Novak Djokovic won his third Australian Open title in the early hours of Monday when he outlasted Spain's Rafa Nadal 5-7 6-4 6-2 6-7 7-5 in an epic five hour, 53 minute match.

Djokovic, who won the title at Melbourne Park in 2008 and 2011, has now won five grand slam titles in total and continues his recent domination over the Spaniard, having beaten him in their last seven meetings, all in finals.

Djokovic fought back from losing the first set to take a 2-1 lead, but he was then taken to a gripping fifth set by resurgent Nadal before winning 5-7, 6-4, 6-2, 6-7 (5/7), 7-5 for his third consecutive major title.

Fourth set

Nadal saved three break points in the eighth game of the fourth set then waited out a 10-minute rain break before taking the fourth set 7-6.

Nadal had been facing the distinct possibility of defeat within five minutes when he was reduced to 0-40 while trailling 3-4 in the set but produced a fantastic backhand pass and three massive serves to claw his way back into the match, which prompted the crowd to break into tumultuous chants of "Rafa".

The players were then forced off the court as officials shut the roof on Rod Laver Arena after rain swept across central Melbourne and the ball boys and girls scrambled around on their knees with towels to dry the court.

Nadal then fed off the crowd that had swung behind him and, after seemingly been down and out returned to his fist pumping, competitive best and took the tiebreak 7-5 to send the match into a decider.

Third set
Djokovic had raced through the third set 6-2 as he began to wear the Spaniard down.

Djokovic set the tone when he blasted through the first game and held serve to love and while he had no break points on Nadal's first service game of the set, the Spaniard was forced to battle as the Serb forced three deuce points.

The world number one continued the pressure on Nadal's serve in the fourth game when he sealed the important break and then consolidated for a 4-1 lead when he again held his own serve to love.

Djokovic, who was stepping inside the court and attacking Nadal's top-spin forehand while compelling the Spaniard to play from deep behind the baseline, again pressured Nadal on serve then held his own serve to love to take a 5-2 lead.

He sealed the set when he broke Nadal to love in the next game and the momentum had definitely swung towards the defending champion.

Djokovic only dropped two points on serve in the 45-minute third set.

Second set
Djokovic's powerful forehand finally started to find its range as grabbed the second set 6-4 to level the match.

The Serb also put pressure on Nadal's serve at every opportunity and broke in the fourth game to take a 3-1 lead.

Nadal, though, had won the point of the match when he produced a stunning running backhand top-spin drive down the line that brought the crowd to their feet after a 15-shot rally that swept back and forth across the court.

Djokovic was serving for the set but was broken when he held two set points before he seized back the initiative in the next game and broke Nadal again to level when the Spaniard served his second double fault.

First set
Nadal broke the world number one twice in an error-ridden first set before he won it 7-5 to take the early lead.

Djokovic suffered a slight scare in the fourth game when he went over on his right ankle after attempting a slide, and went down to his haunches before he began to flex and roll it in circles at the end of the game.
Both players failed to really settle or stamp their authority on the match, though Djokovic had more opportunities to break the Spaniard's serve.

After breaking in the fifth game Nadal had to fight off Djokovic twice before the Serb broke in the eighth game, though Nadal seized back the advantage in the 11th game and sealed the opener on his third set point when a backhand return floated long. -- Reuters and Agence France-Presse
