MINI NEWS WRAP

• Lots of new music at Australian radio this week, including the brand new single for UK songstress Estelle (pictured). It's the first single to be lifted from the singer's new album 'All Of Me', which we anticipate Warner will release later this year.
• As we broke last week, Sony Music has taken Christina Aguilera's new single 'I Hate Boys' to local radio along with Michael Paynter's great new track 'Love The Fall'.
• Universal Music has serviced the new Chromeo single 'Don't Turn The Lights On' as well as the new Maroon 5 single 'Misery' and Bon Jovi's 'When We Were Beautiful'.
• Melbourne outfit The Vasco Era has announced a small tour of regional Victoria, taking in Mildura, Ballarat, Geelong and Warrnambool. They'll also head over the border to South Australia to perform a show in Loxton. Details live on their MYSPACE.
• Barack Obama may have won the race to the White House, but he's locked in a battle with Lady Gaga to reach a million followers on social networking site Facebook. Both have over 9.2 million followers already, but Gaga is currently leading the US President by more than 100,000 fans.
• On the UK singles chart this week, Katy Perry has nabbed the No.1 position with her new track 'California Gurls', adding to her No.1 singles in Australia and the United States. Eminem is in the top ten with Rihanna at No.7 and the Scissor Sisters just miss out on a top ten berth with 'Fire With Fire' - in at No.11.
• And on the British album chart, Eminem follows up the No.1 Aussie album with a No.1 UK album. Example's in at No.4 and Miley Cyrus debuts at No.8 with her new album 'Can't Be Tamed'.
