Ludacris Shows His Soul at CES

What's the Consumer Electronics Show without a sprinkle of celebrity-endorsed gadgets?
by

What's the Consumer Electronics Show without a sprinkle of celebrity-endorsed gadgets? This year, hip-hop mogul Ludacris was on hand to introduce the latest additions to his Soul by Ludacris headphone line.

In 2012, the new finishes are all about shine. The SL300 noise-canceling headphones come in chrome gold, and the SL150 hi-def headphones are chrome silver. The SL100 model now has a white finish with gold accents. Soul's line of earbuds, the SL49 and SL99, also has new color options including a green and black combo, red and black, pink and white, and platinum.

We spoke to the musician-restaurateur-actor-entrepreneur for more on his life in the tech industry:

  • Style meets Soul — Ludacris said his life is "all about setting trends and pop culture," which is infused into the design of the Soul product line. He draws inspiration from a little bit of everything including fashion and cars.
  • Listening must-haves — Though it's like naming a favorite child, Ludacris keeps a pair of the SL99 earbuds in his pocket for whenever, wherever, and the SL300 when traveling for the noise-canceling experience.
  • Apple fan — He names the iPhone 4S and iPad as the nonheadphone gadgets he can't live without.

    • Pricing and availability for the new Soul headphone and earbud designs hasn't been announced, but the current line on sale ranges from $70 to $300. Check out photos of the Soul line in the gallery.

    The 2011 Grammy award nominations were announced last night in LA during a live televised concert performance. Kanye West took top honors with seven nods, and not far behind was soulful singer Adele with six. Popular artists Katy Perry, Nicki Minaj, Bruno Mars, and Taylor Swift were also among those recognized — see BuzzSugar's entire list of Grammy award nominees! Lady Gaga, who is up for album of the year, best pop solo performance, and best pop vocal album, opened and closed the show with two of her hot tracks. Usher, Ludacris, and best new artist contender The Band Perry also performed while Katy, Nicki, and other popular musicians announced the nominees. The Grammy awards take place in LA on Feb. 12, and hopefully, ailing singer Adele will be fully recovered from recent throat surgery to take part in the show.

    Fergie and Josh Duhamel weren't the only stars showing off their toned bodies in next to nothing on the beach in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, yesterday. The cast of Fast Five, the next installment in The Fast and the Furious franchise, arrived there on location and took advantage of an afternoon off. Jordana Brewster perfected her tan in a minuscule bikini but went for slightly more modest bottoms than Fergs. Paul Walker clearly still gets your manjoyment vote, and these shirtless pictures should seal the deal. No complaints about those abs, though costars Vin Diesel, Ludacris, and Tyrese stayed a bit more covered up. Check out the sexy pictures!

    Jennifer Lopez made a grand entrance at the World Music Awards in Monte Carlo this evening, escorted by Marc Anthony and wearing a full-length Roberto Cavalli animal print gown. She's been working on her tan aboard the designer's multimillion-dollar yacht off the coast of Monaco between spending time with her family, shopping and partying at Cannes events. Avatar's Michelle Rodriguez posed side by side with Heroes star Hayden Panettiere, who was modeling an up and away hair style and all smiles despite the recent canceling of the show.

    Hilton sisters Nicky and Paris made the evening a family affair, posing with their parents before handing out the award for best R&B artist. During the show, J Lo changed into a leg-baring Roberto Cavalli minidress to perform a medley of her hits. Paris Hilton was impressed by J Lo's act, tweeting a congratulatory message from the audience. Lopez later changed into her third Cavalli dress of the night to accept an achievement award for her contribution to music.

    Tracy Morgan is a daring choice to trust to host a big event, but last night he took the stage to MC at VH1's Hip Hop Honors in Brooklyn, NY. His buddy Jimmy Fallon also made an appearance, as did Chris Rock, while a basically shirtless Kid Rock hit the red carpet and performed during the show. Mary J. Blige and Ashanti held down the female side of things and Flavor Flav stuck with his old faithful enormous clock necklace and white top hat. Last week it was all about the Divas, but this time the star power and performers were out to honor the 25th anniversary of Def Jam records.

    Some lovely ladies and a lucky Ludacris came out to celebrate the launch of the Armani Exchange watch collection at SLS hotel in LA last night. Eva Longoria displayed her wrist accessory and cuddled up to Luda, before heading over to Victoria Beckham's birthday party. Hayden Panettiere showed off a flirty green frock while Kristen Bell went for comfort. Lindsay Lohan, who strutted her stuff in a LWD, brought Dina and a leather-clad Ali to walk the carpet with her. Apparently LL's family is trying to get her to go to rehab, although in the meantime they seem to be happy keeping a watchful eye by joining her on the party circuit.
