According to PS3F, SingStar producer Paulina Bozek confirmed at the SCEE PlayStation Day last night that a web version of My SingStar Online will launch this year.

The site will allow internet users to see uploaded videos from the game. Apparently SingStar players will be able to say whether or not they want their videos to be viewed by the general public or held within the current, PS3-only system.

“We’re happy to announce that SingStar PS3 will be released in the US this coming May,” said SCEA’s Ryan Hamlyn. “We’re excited to share more information in the near future on all the cool features fans can expect at launch.”

We’ve nothing more to add. Good luck to you, you poor American fools.
