Teen Choice Awards Highlights Include 'Twilight,' Host Katy Perry

'Step Up 3D' dancers and performances by Travie McCoy and Jason Derúlo also stand out during show, which airs Monday night.
UNIVERSAL CITY, California -- Compared with the sensation caused by Miley Cyrus' saucy performance of "Party in the USA" at last year's Teen Choice Awards, the 2010 show was pretty tame. With 85.5 million votes cast, "The Twilight Saga: New Moon" and "Eclipse" took home the most awards (15 in total).

Just like any other awards show, the reason to tune in when the show airs Monday night (August 9) on Fox is to catch a glimpse of your favorite stars, and the 2010 Teen Choice Awards certainly delivered big names. Attendees and winners included: Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner, Megan Fox, Channing Tatum, Sandra Bullock and David Beckham, just to name a few.

Beginning with host Katy Perry and co-hosts/ "Glee" co-stars Cory Monteith, Mark Salling, Kevin McHale and Chris Colfer, any time Perry took the stage with one of the boys, they played to a recurring theme of revisiting high school and being in a "Teenage Dream," which involved costume changes into different stereotypes: jock, nerd, hippie, prom king and queen.

Other show highlights included killer live performances: The two best were by the "Step Up 3D" dancers, who wowed the crowd with acrobatics and crazy dance moves and, later in the show, Bruno Mars and Travie McCoy's high-energy rendition of "Billionaire." Jason Derülo also get style points for opening his "In My Head" number sporting light-up shoes and MJ-inspired moves.

Sandra Bullock's acceptance of Choice Movie Actress (for her performances in "The Blind Side" and "The Proposal") and Choice Movie Dance was another key moment because she involved her "Proposal" and dance-sequence co-star, Betty White. Bullock taunted White to come onstage, and the spry 88-year-old responded by shimmy-ing her way to Bullock, and they shared a freestyle dance moment together, which delighted the crowd.

Another acceptance-speech-related highlight was Taylor Swift's remote thank you for her award. Swift appeared in a taped message wearing a wet suit, Teen Choice Award surfboard in hand, and literally jumped into a lake with the board, attempting to surf on it, sans waves or ocean.

In addition to expected ear-splitting screams for Pattinson and Lautner, Choice Male Athlete David Beckham earned a healthy share of his own. Not only that, but to accept his surfboard, he brought his three sons onstage with him, and at the end, they tossed Beckham-signed soccer balls into the crowd. Awww.

The show ended with the very sizable casts of "New Moon" and "Eclipse" onstage to send a group thank you to their Most Obsessive Fans.

2010 Teen Choice Awards : List of Music Winners


Justin Bieber leads the pack with four surfboards, followed by Eminem, Taylor Swift and Paramore with three kudos each.

The 2010 Teen Choice Awards will not be aired until Monday night, August 9 but fans don't have to wait any longer to find out who is taking home the surfboards. In music field, it is 16-year-old Justin Bieber who dominates the winners list with four kudos.

Eminem and Rihanna Filming 'Love the Way You Lie' Video

The rapper and the singer performed together in front of a burning house for a video shoot helmed by Joseph Kahn.

On July 21, Eminem and Rihanna teamed up in Los Angeles for video shoot of their duet track "Love the Way You Lie". In a picture obtained by RapRadar, the Slim Shady is seen sporting a casual white undershirt while the Barbadian singer is snapped wearing all-black-everything ensemble.

More set images from the Wednesday filming are out via On Location News. They all capture Rihanna performing in front of a burning house. Eminem was "later seen but not photographed" performing together with her on the same set.

The video shoot was done under direction from Joseph Kahn. The acclaimed music video director complained about paparazzi taking pictures during the filming. He reached out to Twitter to express his frustration, "Paparazzi stop trying to ruin my shots. Thank you."

Some of the onlookers even offered a favor to wash the director's car. Kahn wrote, "Some offered to wash my car on set and I got tingly. I think have autoturtlewaxopholia."

Before the on-set picture surfaced, rumor from E! Online suggested Megan Fox and Dominic Monaghan were tapped to make appearances. The Fox rumor was later denied, but there is still no word on the status of Monaghan on the video. So far, there hasn't been any evidence that the "Lost" actor has shot a scene for the clip.

"Love the Way You Lie" is taken from Eminem's latest studio album "Recovery". After being blocked for a while by Katy Perry with his summer anthem "California Gurls", the joint track finally reaches No. 1 on Billboard Hot 100.

Christina Aguilera's 'You Lost Me' Music Video Arrives in Full


he 'Bionic' singer can't take it anymore, singing in agony and pushing her lover away in this Anthony Mandler-directed music video.

Christina Aguilera's music video in support of her ballad track "You Lost Me" has hit the web. Directed by Anthony Mandler, the clip mostly highlights the 29-year-old singer in her devastated state as her romance is doomed. In one scene, she pushes her lover away when he tries to get close to her.

"From the first keys of the opening of the track, we know that we are about to watch something that is going to move and transform us," Mandler previously told PopEater. "In the end, we've traveled through Christina's world. One that is physical, mental and spiritually charged. Nothing is what it seems. Everything is fractured and evolving, falling away ... fragile."

"You Lost Me" is taken from Christina Aguilera's latest album "Bionic" which has been in stores since June this year.

Taylor Swift's New Album Due Oct. 25, New Single Slated for Aug. 16

The album is titled 'Speak Now' and contains songs that she wrote herself, while the single is called 'Mine' and talks about her 'tendency to run from love.'

Taylor Swift has revealed some details about her next studio installment. During a Ustream live chat Tuesday, July 20, the country music singer announced that the effort is titled "Speak Now" and will arrive worldwide on October 25. "It's called Speak Now, and that pertains to the album as a concept and as an entire theme of the record more than I can even tell you," she said during the chat which drew more than 58,000 viewers.

"I've been working on it for two years, so ever since we put out Fearless, I've been writing for this record and sort of conceptualizing it and putting it together in my head and sort of figuring out what I want it to be," she explained more. "I like to take a lot of time in between albums to work up the next one and see what it is."

The songs that made the cut to the album are the ones which she wrote herself. "I didn't have any co-writers, and it didn't really happen on purpose," she stated. "I'd get my best ideas at 3 A.M. in Arkansas when I didn't have any co-writers around, so I would just finish it." And the same thing also happened in New York, Boston and Nashville. She said, "It just so happened that the songs that made the cut on the album were the ones I wrote myself, so, wish me luck!"

On the things that inspired her, the 20-year-old beauty said it's her experience in the past two years post "Fearless". She shared, "I write everything that I live, so you got to give yourself a little bit of time to live a lot of things so you can write about a lot of things, and my only option is to write about what I've been through and what I've lived, so thankfully, in the past two years, I've experienced a lot of things that I've been dying to write about and a lot of things that I wanted to say in the moment that I didn't."

The first single called "Mine" is going to be released on August 16 and it's about her "tendency to run from love." The ex-girlfriend of Joe Jonas explained, "[It's] every really direct example of love that I've had in front of me has ended in goodbye and ended in breakups and things like that. So I think I've developed this pattern of running away when it comes time to fall in love and stay in a relationship."

"The song is sort of about finding the exception to that and finding someone who would make you believe in love and realize that it could work out, because I'm never ever going to go past hoping that love works out." Later in the chat, she also talked about filming "Mine" music video in a "gorgeous" location which she wishes to live there one day.

Another track which will be included in the upcoming release is titled "Sparks Fly". She said, "I played that song at one or two shows, and you guys really jumped on it and made it something I had to put on the album, because you guys really showed interest in it."

Lily Allen hesitates at crossroads of Fame


Lily Allen, the singer-turned-…um… entrepreneur(?) has allegedly decided to see less of her hip, London friends so she can better enjoy life with her boyfriend.

“She has deleted the numbers of her showbiz friends from her phone,” said a source. “Lily says she wants no part of the party stuff that goes with being in the public eye, and she wants to concentrate on starting a family. She believes the only way to start afresh is to cut all ties with her old showbiz mates.”

Meanwhile Lily’s mum Alison Owen has admitted she worried about her daughter being in the spotlight. "I was extremely proud of what she had achieved, but I felt scared for her, protective of her, jealous other people had a part of her,” said mum. "It felt as if she wasn't mine so much any more."

Allegedly the Not Fair singer is thinking of moving to Gloucestershire, to be closer to her aggressive and unpleasant father Keith. It would be a shame to lose Lily to the countryside because that would definitely mean no second series for Lily Allen And Friends. Come on BBC fat cats, that show was just starting to find its audience (single cell organisms and drunk people waiting for The Mint to come on).

Ke$ha talks about boys and stuff with Rihanna. Giggle


What is it about Ke$ha that makes her so damn hard to like? Is it the woefully disingenuous “party grrrl” image, dreamt up no doubt by a board room of cynical, middle-aged record executives? Is it the fact everything she says seems like the demented, try-hard ravings of a 14-year-old determined to prove to her friends that she’s “kooky” and “random”? We’ll never know.

At this point though, Ke$ha wants us to know how awesome it is being on tour with her best pal Rihanna. "We have slumber parties and pillow fights and we braid each other's hair a lot. We talk about boys, naked," said the singer. "Touring with Rihanna is incredible, you should come see it… It’s epic."

Can we put a moratorium on people using the word “epic” in this fashion? An epic is a story which deals with heroic characters on a grand, majestic scale. An epic is not slumber parties and pillow fights.

Lady Gaga: From Pop Deity To Human Being, One Reality Show At A Time

Bigger Than the Sound wonders: Is Gaga the most everyman pop star around?

By now, you are probably aware that Lady Gaga is an unstoppable moneymaking machine, an insatiable studio junkie, a high-ranking Polaroid executive, an honorary Hair Wars champion, a burgeoning fashion icon, the next Madonna, more popular than Barack Obama and quite possibly a member of the Illuminati.

But, chances are, you didn’t know that she’s also a big fan of A&E’s “Intervention.”

Or maybe you did. After all, she tweeted about it Tuesday, calling the show “informational, heartbreaking and inspiring.” And while the idea of Gaga sitting in a hotel room, hair done up in Diet Coke can curlers, cigarette sunglasses still smoldering on the bedside table, watching Allison huff duster (and subsequently walk on sunshine) is rather amazing, it’s also important too. Because it’s just another step in the latest chapter of her career: her continued transformation from otherworldly pop deity into an actual human being.

And perhaps I am reading entirely too much into one simple tweet about a phenomenally addictive reality show (about addiction), but now — more than at any point in her time in the spotlight — Gaga seems determined to be one of us. She chugs beer at baseball games (albeit while wearing a leather jacket and a bikini), crushes BBQ at Boston dive bars and spends her off-days in New York cooking for her dad, drinking and watching episodes of “Cops” (something she made a point of mentioning onstage at her tour kickoff in Montreal). She spoke openly and frankly about her ex-boyfriend in an interview with Rolling Stone, and her newest song — a piano ballad called “You and I” — seems to be very much about reconciling with him, in perhaps the most un-Gaga setting imaginable: a dark and dirty bar. (It’s also worth noting that the songs sounds a whole lot like a Billy Joel B-side, and who’s more everyman than the Piano Man?)

At this point, I don’t know what she could possibly do for an encore — maybe start Tivo-ing “The Real Housewives of New Jersey” or take on a disastrous adjustable-rate mortgage? — but the fact remains that right now, despite all her trappings, Gaga is probably the most openly human pop superstar on the planet (or at least the most open). Can you imagine any of her contemporaries — the Beyoncés and Britneys and Madonnas of the galaxy — giving the finger to photographers at a Mets game or slaving away in the kitchen? Of course not. Would any of them go to such great lengths to shed the veil of celebrity and seem so downright normal? Not in a million years. Lady Gaga has basically graduated to a whole new level now, one that’s either so far above — or so far below — anything anyone else has ever attempted that it seems positively groundbreaking: She is the cursing, drinking, red-meat-devouring deity. She is, in a sense, just like you or I.

But is any of it intentional? I’m not really sure. When I interviewed Gaga last year in San Diego, I asked her if she were “in character” all the time or if there were moments when she was just, you know, normal (i.e. When she went to the grocery store, did she wear those Alexander McQueen armadillo heels?). She responded, quite matter-of-factly, that Lady Gaga wasn’t a character; it was who she was, and that, if there was any kind of concept behind her career, it was — as she put it — to “create an atmosphere for my fans, where they don’t leave loving me, they leave loving themselves.”

So even back then, the template appeared to be in place. Gaga is not untouchable, she is not perfect — she’s not supposed to be. And while some might find the notion of their pop royalty slumming it down here with the rest of us rather uncouth, I for one find it rather admirable. It’s not careerist or calculated; it’s just Gaga being Gaga. And, I suspect, it’s just one of the many reasons her “little monsters” love her so.

And, if she wants to continue down her current path, might I suggest “Ochocinco: The Ultimate Catch,” currently airing on VH1? It’s waaay everyman.

Lady Gaga to Become the Face of a Tea Firm



Although there are many tea firms who want her to be the face of their drink, it is said that Twinings is the one which is mostly determined to bag a contract with the 'Alejandro' singer.
Lady Gaga is at the center of a bidding war by tea firms who want her to be the face of their drink. The "Alejandro" singer, who is well known for her love of the hot beverage, is reportedly being pursued by several major companies who want her to be their brand ambassador. So far, distinguished English firm Twinings is the most determined to bag the contract with the eccentric pop star.

They have made a multi-million pound offer to her management and have also instructed expert tea makers to invent a new oriental flavor especially for GaGa which they hope will appeal to her fans and younger drinkers around the globe. A source told The Sun newspaper, "Her management have received a load of offers from major tea companies but Twinings are the frontrunners."

"They want to launch a new tea with her face on it. Names like The Taste Of GaGa are being batted about. The idea is to have tasting sessions in which she would participate. The tasters are coming up with a tea with an oriental flavor. They want to market tea to a new, younger generation, particularly in America. GaGa is making drinking tea cool again."

The 24-year-old star, real name Stefani Germanotta, is often pictured sipping tea from her favorite cup and saucer set and rarely travels anywhere without it. She threw a huge tantrum last year when she lost the teacup. The "Poker Face" singer accidentally left the blue flowered cup at a restaurant in London's Metropolitan Hotel and sent a taxi on a 35 pounds round trip from her suite at Blakes Hotel to collect it.

A source said, "She kicked up a fuss and demanded someone get her cup and saucer back. She wouldn't drink out of anything else. It just looked like any other cup and saucer and said 'Made in China' on the bottom. It seemed a lot of fuss over nothing."

Katy & Russell 'Fight All The Time'

'Friends' of the couple claim they are constantly Hot N Cold...

Katy Perry and Russell Brand reportedly already fight like 'an old married couple' despite not even getting hitched yet.

Friends close to the California Gurls singer claim the couple, who are set to wed later this year, may look cosy in photos - but behind closed doors they are always bickering.

A pal of Katy told NYDailyNews.com: "They fight and make-up constantly," while another insider stated stated: "it will not work out."

The source claims that cracks starting emerging in their relationship when Perry took Brand as her date to a close friend's wedding where the Get Him To The Greek actor, who doesn't drink, frowned upon Katy's partying.

SEE PICTURES OF KATY PERRY & RUSSELL BRAND AT THE LA PREMIERE OF GET HIM TO THE GREEK HERE

The mole revealed: "[Russell] got angry with Katy because he thought she had drunk too much. Perry ended up staying with a friend who has a place in N.Y.C. and Brand went back to the couple’s hotel room alone."

Meanwhile, the I Kissed A Girl hit maker is also said to have problems with ex-lothario Russell's womanising ways with the source stating: "There have always been fights about other women − despite Russell talking about how much he loves Katy all the time,"

The insider claims that shortly before last month's MTV Movie Awards, the couple had a huge bust-up after Katy accused Russell of being unfaithful - causing the couple to arrive at the event separately and sit away from each other.

Perry's 'friend' added: "Katy suspected [Russell] of cheating and it wasn’t the first time, it's a cycle."

'Inception' Director Christopher Nolan Reveals His 'Star Wars' Inspiration

'I want to try and give somebody in the audience the experience I had watching that film,' he said.

The demented memory flipbook that is "Memento," the noir-ish freakery of Gotham City in "The Dark Knight," the intricately woven, epically scaled "Inception" — all this can be traced back to a formative experience director Christopher Nolan had at the cinema in 1977.

Seven years old at the time, Nolan took in a screening of "Star Wars." Nothing was ever the same.

"That completely changed movies for me," he told MTV News. "It changed everything, really."


Nolan had never seen a film that was so, well, intricately woven and epically scaled as George Lucas' space odyssey. "It created a world that lived on in your mind after you saw the film and seemed to have this limitless potential," he said.

And, as Nolan explains it over three decades later, he's made a career out of trying to instill a similar sense of wonderment for ticket buyers.

"I think, for me, my whole career in making films, really every time I set out to make a film, I want to try and give somebody in the audience the experience I had watching that film, where it really felt like anything was possible in that world," he said. "That's a really extraordinary experience to have as a moviegoer."

Nolan started out small, shooting "Following" on a shoestring budget with a bunch of friends. He graduated to "Memento," gaining some financial backing and the talents of professional actors. Eventually, Warner Bros. handed him the task of resurrecting the dormant "Batman" franchise. After delivering two blockbuster takes on the Caped Crusader, the studio basically gave Nolan a pile of cash and carte blanche to make a movie he'd been dreaming about for 10 years: "Inception."

As with all his earlier films, Nolan set out to deliver an experience that would create a world that lived on in the minds of moviegoers, that seemed to have limitless potential.

"I think that's the highest aspiration of the Hollywood blockbuster," he said.

Hannah Montana Sneak Peek: The Final Season


Ready to enter an alternate universe?

Given the extreme makeover Miley Cyrus has undergone over the past couple months, it's jarring to remember that she still plays Hannah Montana on television.

In fact, that show will air the first episode of its final season tomorrow night. It finds the Stewarts moving into a new ranch home and we've posted a sneak peek at the premiere below.

Miley is front and center, but there are no same-sex kisses, no gyrating of the crotch and no torn-up, low-cut, ridiculous outfits to be seen...

Cyrus has gone out of her way to say she wants to shed this innocent image, but she really might wanna think twice about that.

After all, her new album sales have been abysmal. She may have to accept the fact that most fans want to see her as looks here, not as some Britney Spears wannabe:

Adam Lambert Has Rock Star Arms


"American Idol" star Adam Lambert performed and did a radio interview at 107.5 The River in Nashvillethis week, and we think he needs to work out a little bit. He's proud of his new tattoo, but he needs to bulk up those arms, don't you think?

Adam put himself in the running as a replacement for Simon Cowell on the hit singing competition, but it doesn't seem like anyone is backing him up. Simon told OK! magazine, "I wouldn't be surprised if it was Harry Connick, Jr. He was a great mentor when he was on, and he knows music."

Kara DioGuardi is also supporting Harry as a new judge. She explained, "The way that he worked with the contestants, he really cared about them. I thought he was really, really great."

Lindsay Lohan in Jail: No Cigarettes = Big Problem!


Lindsay Lohan's close friends are concerned about her going to jail.

Not on moral grounds or anything like that. They're just worried the train wreck won't survive a day without the one thing she can't live without ... cigarettes.

Lohan is likely to do time at the same all-female facility where Paris Hilton was locked up in '07, and the place has a serious zero tolerance no-smoking policy.

Bad news for Lindsay.

She's a "serious chain-smoker," blowing through at least two packs a day. "The first thing she does when she wakes up is light a cigarette," a friend says.



SMOKED: Lindsay Lohan must surrender July 20 to begin her 90-day jail sentence. Maybe she can draft up a legal manifesto to score some cigarettes in the slammer?

The source adds, "I'm honestly scared for [Lindsay] ... I don't think she's gone a day without smoking in years. This isn't something she can stop overnight."

"It's a serious condition."

We'd feel bad, except had she not displayed the worst possible attitude, acting like a spoiled brat who is somehow above the law, while flat-out ignoring very reasonable probation terms, she'd be free to smoke all day on the outside.

Just saying. It's her fault.

The upside is that if she goes to the Lynwood facility July 20, as expected, it could actually lead to her kicking the habit, if she's willing to put in the effort.

Don't hold your breath.

Lady Gaga’s Insurance Company Wants Nothing To Do With Her




Bosses at Lady Gaga’s insurance company have filed court documents in New York distancing themselves from the singer’s legal battle with a former producer - to ensure they aren’t liable for damages if she loses the case.

Rob Fusari, Gaga’s former mentor and ex-boyfriend, is suing the star for $35 million, claiming he helped his former lover come up with her stage name and played a key part in landing her a record deal with Interscope.

Fusari maintains he held a 20 per cent share in his company with Gaga, Team Love Child LLC, and argues she failed to adequately compensate him for his shares in the firm once she gained worldwide recognition.

The “Poker Face” hitmaker has hit back with a countersuit, accusing Fusari of taking advantage of her naivety as a wannabe pop star.

Now executives at her insurers Navigators Speciality Insurance Company have waded into the lawsuit. Lawyers representing the firm filed a motion in court on Thursday asking the presiding judge to issue a declaratory judgment because Gaga’s policy does not cover breach of contract claims, reports TMZ.com.

The legal papers state Gaga’s policy only pays for “an act or omission including personal injury in the performance of professional services.”

Ke$ha Unleashes Her Inner Animal In Her “Your Love Is My Drug” Video

Ke$ha really does like dudes with beards—case in point: her “Your Love Is My Drug” video, which features her waking up next to one in the desert. The clip also features pop’s be-feathered princess riding around on an elephant, and some Yellow Submarine-esque “’70s animation,” as she calls it. (We won’t tell her that the Beatles’ cartoon feature was released in 1968 if you don’t.) Watch Ke$ha’s new video after the jump!



“Your Love Is My Drug” was directed by Honey. You may recall that Ke$ha previewed her Day Glo look from the video during her heavily-debated SNL performance last month.

The single is currently lodged at #8 for a third week on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, and was joined in the Top 10 this week by 3OH!3 and Ke$ha’s “My First Kiss,” which debuted at #9.

Ke$ha is gearing up to tour with Rihanna this summer, but not before taking time out to shoot the third video from her Animal album, "Your Love Is My Drug." The clip was filmed on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week and features Ke$ha hanging out in the California desert.

The video reportedly "follows Ke$ha on a fun journey through an animated world" and was shot in Lancaster, California. In it, Ke$ha is seen dancing and performing near sand dunes while wearing a khaki-colored bathing suit; she's also seen wrapped in what appears to be a fishing net.

While she was all by her lonesome during the sunset scenes, once the sun went down, she filmed a kissing scene with an unidentified guy next to a campfire. Later on, Ke$ha performed — under black lights while wearing body paint — near some giant rock boulders. The video follows up Ke$ha's other clips for her hits "Tik Tok" and "Blah Blah Blah."

Ke$ha actually worked with her mom, Pebe Sebert, on several Animal tracks, including "Your Love Is My Drug." She's previously described the track as one that delves into the sordid details of her love life. "I wrote a few songs with my mom, who's a sick writer, and taught me everything I know about songwriting," she said.

"My mom and I are best friends, so it really comes naturally. She taught me how to write my first song. I can also be really honest with her. We're like best friends and there are no really forbidden topics."

Are you looking forward to Ke$ha's new video? What do you think will happen in it? Let us know in the comments below!

LADY GAGA, ASHLEY TISDALE TO JOIN ‘FINAL DESTINATION 5’


It’s been a couple of weeks since we learned that Final Destination 5 is in the works.

The latest rumor has it, High School Musical cutie Ashley Tisdale and fashion model Adam Bertrand are among those attached to the project.

Warner Bros’ Alan Horn told TMZ.com that Bertrand and Tisdale had been cast in February. When asked at the ShoWest convention whether or not Tisdale or Bertrand would be appearing, he simply smiled at the cameras and entered his awaiting SUV.

What Horn did reveal is that this installment will be longer than 2009’s The Final Destination that scored more than $180 million in the global box office mostly due to being released in 3D.



In the mean time, Bertrand will be opening for pop superstar Lady Gaga during her performances at the HP Pavilion in San Jose, CA on August 16th and 17th. Fans have made it clear that they hope Gaga, who is said to be best friends with Bertrand and has casted him in several of her music videos, will make a cameo appearance in Final Destination 5, which would be her first movie role.

Likewise, fans have expressed interest in seeing any number of Tisdale’s High School Musical costars make appearances.

Are you excited to see GaGa in Final Destination?

Miley Cyrus' Next Album Has a Bit of Lady GaGa



Miley Cyrus will adapt a little bit of Lady GaGa music to her new album. Dishing about what to expect from the new set, the 17-year-old told MTV News, "My new record has more of a techno vibe on some stuff. It's fun. You know, I just want to kind of do all different types of music, same as I do with movies. I never want to get stuck in a rut and just do one thing."

The leading lady of "The Last Song" spilled that the record will come out in summer, before gushing further, "[The album is] a little different. It's kind of poppier, but then it still has an edge. All of my music kind of has to." She added, "I think it's really fun. It's definitely a good summer CD. It's good to blast in your car."

While saying that she is excited about the album and looking forward for its release, Miley is consistent in admitting she is ready to take a break from music. "I have one more record coming out this summer in June, and then after that, I want to take a step back from music for a while," she said. "I want to continue to do film. Later in life, another record. But for now, I'd like to focus on movies."

Mark Zuckerberg : Facebook in No Rush to Go Public


Everyone is still trying to figure out just how big a business social networks are, how much is Facebook worth, and how much money it’ll be making in a couple of years. Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, however, doesn’t seem worried at all.
Asked about Facebook’s plans to launch an initial public offering (IPO), he said the company will do it eventually, but it’s “definitely in no rush.” The reason for the leisurely approach, according to Zuckerberg, is the simple fact that Facebook doesn’t need money.
“If you don’t need that capital, then all the pressures are different, and the motivations (to go public) are not there in the same way,” he said.
While estimates about Facebook’s future earnings vary wildly, Facebook recently turned cash flow positive, which is a big deal for a company many once thought was pure vaporware. As long as Facebook keeps it that way, it can calculate and delay the IPO for as long as it deems necessary.

It's Lady Gaga Money !





You’re know you’re pretty much printing your own money when you’re… printing your own money. Case in point, Lady Gaga, who, as you know — unless you live somewhere that uses shells as currency (in which case you’re probably not reading this) — is pretty famous. So famous that she inspired artist Craig Gleason to break the law (though I’m sure the U.S. Treasury would let it slide in this case) and create a series of hand-painted dollars that satisfy the heretofore unchartered intersection of George Washington and Lady Gaga. Perhaps you saw Craig Gleason’s Gaga dollarsback in December. But it looks like he just created some brand-new ones, featuring the razor blade sunglasses from her “Bad Romance,” video, one of her very Matthew Barney Haus of Gaga outfits, and her mirrorball dress with intense shoulders.

The latest Gaga dollars are available on Craig Gleason’s blog (which you can find by Googling his name or a combination of two felonies). Or hit him up at his Etsy shop to see how many regular dollars it takes to buy Gaga dollars. (Worth it at any price, I say!) If only I could use Gaga dollars to buy me some unwearable Alexander McQueen armadillo heels.

Jessica Alba Calls Taylor Swift And Taylor Lautner ‘So Cute’


Jessica Alba Calls Taylor Swift And Taylor Lautner ‘So Cute’

‘Their story line is definitely one of my favorites,’ she says of ‘Valentine’s Day’ co-stars.

Julia Roberts, Jamie Foxx, Kathy Bates, Ashton Kutcher, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Biel, Jennifer Garner, Bradley Cooper — a few Oscar winners, many A-listers, some of the most in-demand talent in Hollywood. They also all play characters in “Valentine’s Day,” the upcoming rom-com that weaves together many different story lines to form a film about the vagaries of love.

And out of all these plot strands, the one that might be co-star Jessica Alba’s favorite does not focus of any of these long-established Tinseltown players but on two relative newcomers (and a rumored former real-life couple): country superstar Taylor Swift and “Twilight” werewolf Taylor Lautner.

“Taylor Swift is so cute,” Alba told MTV News. “And Taylor Lautner is so cute. Their story line is definitely one of my favorites.”

The Taylors play high school students who fall in love after a spit-balled note from guy to girl asks, “What’s up?” Alba confessed that she wasn’t too familiar with their past work. She’s never seen the “Twilight” films and said Swift’s tunes won’t be found on her iPod. “I’m not terribly familiar with her, to be quite honest,” the 28-year-old actress said. “I think her music is maybe for a generation younger. I feel old. I feel so old!”

Alba’s pop-culture tastes, it turns out, skew to the grunge-rock scene of the early ’90s. “I watched MTV when Nirvana was going Unplugged,” she said. “I used to watch Pearl Jam. This is a different generation.”

That generation gap, however, didn’t stop Alba from connecting with her younger co-star — and giving her big props for her turn in front of the camera. “Taylor Swift is so cute,” Alba said. “I laughed out loud during her scenes. She is hilarious.”

Check out everything we’ve got on “Valentine’s Day.”

Rumor : Angelina Jolie and Lady Gaga

Angelina Jolie Had Affair with Lady Gaga !!



Ian Halperin claims Angelina cheated on Brad Pitt

Over the weekend, the British tabloids got a hold of a story saying that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie had met with an attorney to discuss the future of their children, since they were not married and provisions had to be made. This, in turn, led to speculation that they were on the verge of breaking up – a breakup in which Jolie’s affair with singer Lady Gaga might have played a part, Ian Halperin claims.


Ian Halperin is, for those who are not familiar with his name, an investigative journalist that also covered the life of Princess Diana and Michael Jackson. Just recently, Halperin came out with a book titled “Brangelina Exposed,” which, as its name implies, exposed the Brangelina couplefor a pair of hypocrites manipulating the public. Now, Halperin claims to have knowledge that Jolie’s infidelity might have also played a part in her recent (rumored) separation from Pitt.

“A source close to the actress told IUC late last night that there was recently a secret rendezvous between the two at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel that lasted all night. Apparently, Angie is obsessed with Lady Gaga. Still, I reserve judgment on this one until I see more proof. Developing…” Halperin writes on IanUndercover, his official website. So far, as one can easily imagine, this tidbit has been welcome with nothing but sneers and laughter. In fact, some even says a more likely pairing would have been that of Jolie with Madonna.

Officially, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are still an item, unnamed friends are telling the media. However, the thing that started all this rumor frenzy, the meeting with their attorney on money issues, did take place – it just didn’t happen for the reasons named by the tabloid media. Far from breaking up, the two stars are thinking ahead and planning for their children’s future, all six of them (Brad and Angie share custody of 6 kids, 3 adopted and 3 biological).

“The power couple did indeed visit a high-powered L.A. lawyer last week – but only to cover their assets. ‘They aren’t married, so they need to protect their children and property in case there’s a rift in the future,’ a source says. That certainly makes sense, considering the two are worth a whopping $330 million combined,” the NY Daily News was saying a couple of days ago, as we also noted.

Apple iPad

Apple iPad

After months of speculation and rumors, it’s official: The Apple iPad is real. The device, announced earlier today by Apple CEO Steve Jobs, is designed to fill the perceived gap between the smartphone and the laptop.
With literally thousands of articles and blog posts being written about Apple’s new device, it’s easy to experience information overload.


Highlights:

View pictures, sites, and videos at a bigger and clearer scale with its 9.7-inch IPS display screen with 1024x768 pixels;
Get a better browsing and gaming experience with the use of Apple's own A4 1GHz chip, which gives more processing power to the gadget;
Feel no heaviness because it's just 0.5-inch thin and 1.5 pounds heavy. It's thinner and lighter than any netbook;


It has Bluetooh 2.1, WiFi 802.11n, an optional 3G, and 10 hours battery life (or a month of standby).
iPad is built with accelerometer, compass, speaker, mic, and dock connectors; and,
Use it to store iBooks, access iWorks/iTunes/Calendar/Contacts/Notes, or sych your music like an iPod or iPhone.

The price starts at $499 -- isn't that bad for such a gadget
Wifi - $499 for 16GB, $599 for 32 GB, $699 for 64GB
WiFi +3G - $629 for 16GB, $729 for 32 GB, $829 for 64GB





Lowlights:

Obviously, the name wasn't well thought of. Might create confusion to store personnel in countries who aren't that good in English. Customers might ask for an iPod but may pronounce it as iPad.
Multitasking is not allowed. Ideally, it will be better to have a gadget allowing its user to have his YM open for chat and still be able to write a document.
No back and front cameras. Laptops and even cameras have this, how come Steve Jobs' gadget doesn't?
It's not widescreen to be able to watch a good Star Trek movie and the likes.
No Flash for websites, which will obviously leave a huge area of a website empty.
Absence of adapters like USB and card slots to expand its memory.
A closed app ecosystem allowing only applications from the App Store.
In conclusion, I myself got disappointed of what I saw during the launch. People, including myself, were expecting for a tablet or perhaps a gadget that can replace a netbook. What we saw today is just a bigger scale of an iPhone or an iTouch. In my opinion, the iPad is just a cool-to-have gadget,-- it's one of those techie stuff where you can say "I want it" instead of "I need it." Nevertheless, in the end, it'll always the preference of a person whether he sees it to be useful or not.
