- First Listen: A Demo Of Britney Spears’s New Single Leaks To The Internets [UPDATE]
First Look: Britney Spears, ‘Hold It Against Me’ Posted: 06 Jan 2011 05:32 PM PST In the wake of the early leak of a demo version of Britney Spears‘s new single Hold It Against Me earlier today, Britney posted the artwork for her new single on her official Twitter profile and announced the ACTUAL release date for her new single. PLUS, Ryan Seacrest announces the title of another NEW Britney Spears song!!
Yay!! Not only is the the absolute confirmation that the demo that leaked is the real thing but our dear Britney goes one step further and shows us what the artwork for her single looks like. AND we now know that her version of the single will be released next Tuesday, January 11 (01.01.11) … for sure!! It’s unclear if the plan to unlock the song via fan participation on Facebook is still in effect but I think we can look to next Tuesday as the day, one way or another, that we’ll get to her Britney‘s final produced version of Hold It Against Me. This single artwork is beautiful, I can’t wait to see AND hear more!! In addition to the release of the Hold It Against Me single artwork, Ryan Seacrest reports that not only has he been given a listen to the final version of the track but he has also been allowed to hear another new song from Britney titled I I I Wanna Go:
The leak of the demo version of this song has uncorked a whole bunch of new info about Britney‘s new single and album. It is nearly upon us, y’all … a NEW ERA of Britney Spears music is almost upon us! Wooooot!!! |
Paul ‘Pauly D’ DelVecchio Comments On Britney Spears’s New Album Posted: 06 Jan 2011 05:17 PM PST Earlier today we got our FIRST LISTEN HERE of the demo version of Britney Spears’s new single Hold It Against Me (which you MUST LISTEN TO immediately if you haven’t multiple times already) and right now we get to hear Jersey Shore star Paul Pauly D DelVecchio about his thoughts on Britney‘s new album. That’s right, because Pauly D and Britney share the same manager, he has been allowed to hear Brit Brit‘s new album and according to him, the album is amazing! As a DJ, Pauly D knows a lot about music … and he says he is really excited for the release of Britney‘s album so he can spin it in the clubs. Here is the portion of Pauly D‘s interview with Billboard magazine where he talks about her album (at about the 3:00 mark): Naturally, he doesn’t tell us anything tangible about the album … but he likes it, that’s for sure. I’ve been playing the demo version of Britney‘s new single Hold It Against Me all day long and I’ve really come to LOVE the track. I am DYING to hear how the final product will sound once it gets released … any day now. Any day now. [Source] |
David Beckham Looks So Happy To Root For The LA Lakers Posted: 06 Jan 2011 04:26 PM PST If you thought that Kirsten Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner looked bored out of their minds at the 2011 People’s Choice Awards last night, wait ’til you get a load of these new photos of David Beckham lookin’ like he was having the time of his life at the Staples Center as he “rooted” for the LA Lakers basketball team. I mean … I realize sports fans can’t be happy all the time but, damn, Becks looked so miserably bored.

Actor Kirk Cameron Says Dead Birds Are Not A Sign Of The End Of The World Posted: 06 Jan 2011 03:30 PM PST In the last week or so, thousands of birds have suddenly died in huge quantities in different parts of the country leading the more imaginative/paranoid segment of the population to fear that the occurrences are a sign of a Biblical apocalypse or “End of Days”. Last night, on Anderson 360, actor Kirk Cameron (who we may remember as a child star on Growing Pains but now devotes his life to extreme religious teachings and has starred in Biblical “End of Days” films) chimed in and offer his $0.02 on the matter of all these dead birds. Thank goodness Anderson managed to find an expert! After thousands of birds mysteriously fell out of the sky in Arkansas on New Year’s Eve, it was only natural that Anderson Cooper turned to an expert for an explanation. Enter Kirk Cameron. The former “Growing Pains” star — a born-again Christian who has appeared in movies based on the end-of-days-themed “Left Behind” books — appeared on “Anderson Cooper 360″ to discuss whether he thought the dead birds were a sign of the apocalypse. “Well, I first think that they ought to call a veterinarian, not me. You know, I’m not the religious-conspiracy-theorist go-to guy, particularly,” Cameron said. “But I think it’s really kind of silly to try to equate birds falling out of the sky with some kind of an end-times theory.” Chalk it up to the public’s fascination with doomsday predictions. “People love to find codes and signs of future events and see if they can decipher them before anybody else,” the 40-year-old actor told Cooper. “But birds falling from the sky? That has to do more with pagan mythology; the direction that the birds flew told some of the followers of some of those legends that the gods were either pleased or displeased with them.” Despite the fact that Cameron does not believe that dead birds are a sign of the apocalypse, he is still not happy with the way our country is going. According to him, the state of US affairs is so bad the actual “End of Days” may not be too far in the future: Meanwhile, the father of six says he’s displeased with the state of our country. “If America is a ship, it looks a lot like it’s sinking — financially, morally, spiritually. It’s frightening,” he says. Thanks goodness that settles that! I can now sleep soundly knowing that according to Kirk Cameron, things will be all right … well, for now. [Source] |
Lea Michelle Teams Up With PETA To Save Horses In The City Posted: 06 Jan 2011 02:50 PM PST In May of last year we learned that Glee star Jane Lynch had teamed up with the animal right’s organization People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals in an effort to combat animal overpopulation and today we learn that her co-star Lea Michele has teamed up with PETA for a cause of her own. Lea and PETA want to put a stop to horse-drawn carriages in big cities, is that something you think you’d be on board to support?
Ugh, I must admit … I am not a fan of horse-drawn carriages. I get that the notion of being pulled in a carriage by a horse is romantic to many but I’ve seen far too many miserable-looking horses in NYC that the romance is lost on me. While I’m sure that not all horse-drawn carriage companies mistreat their horses, it just seems really cruel to force them to live in a noisy, bizzy, aggressive city setting. Here is video released by PETA of how they claim some horses are mistreated, be warned … it may be difficult to watch: On this subject, I agree. I have never supported the horse-drawn carriage business … ever. I absolutely do not intend to start. [Source] |
Kristen Stewart & Robert Pattinson Pretend To Enjoy The 2011 People’s Choice Awards Posted: 06 Jan 2011 01:52 PM PST Last night the 2011 People’s Choice Awards were handed out in an awards ceremony that was so chock full of product placement that I damn near puked on my fabulously stylish shoes. I did manage to keep the contents of my stomach in check long enough to note that Twilight stars Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner were all seated in the front row … and BOY did they pretend to look like they were having fun!

Posted: 06 Jan 2011 12:46 PM PST Last night David and I hosted our friends Emma and Josh, who just got engaged to be married last weekend, at our place for a little hangout session. Em and Josh heard all about my new record player and growing record collection so they wanted to come by and hang. They’re also well aware of our liquor and booze collection so, yeah, they were happy to come over.
Tonight, our friend Angie is coming over for a hang session. She will be bringing some of her own vinyl records so … we’s gonna House Party again, I’m sure. |

Adam Levin Of Maroon 5 Gets NEKKID For ‘Cosmopolitan’ Magazine Posted: 06 Jan 2011 11:32 AM PST Okay … who’s in the mood for some hot nekkid manflesh? While Blake Lively is featured on the cover of the new issue of Australian Cosmopolitan magazine, Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine is featured in the new issue of the US version of Cosmopolitan … and he is wearing absolutely nothing but a pair of hands to cover up his manhood. Altho Adam is not completely nekkid in this photos, they might be seen as semi-NSFW for some of y’all so … proceed with caution.

Blake Lively Does Australian ‘Cosmopolitan’ Magazine Posted: 06 Jan 2011 11:17 AM PST Gossip Girl star Blake Lively is featured on the cover of the new issue of Australian Cosmopolitan magazine and in her coverstory interview, she confesses that she is not a fan of nightclubs. In fact, except to see a live show, Blake contends that she has never been to a club before. HMMM … she sounds like a lot of fun to hang out with, don’t she?
I mean … really? I’m not saying that it’s wrong to avoid clubs or anything like that but … really Blake, you’ve never been to a club before? To her credit, the girl does work hard and she successfully manages to keep her private life relatively private and definitely controversy free so … if staying away from clubs is workin’ for her, then I say good for her. As for this magazine cover … I’m not in love with it, to be honest. Her face looks … odd. I swear, some magazine photo retouchers should be shot. IMHO, this is not a very flattering photo … what do y’all think? |
Zac Efron Shows Off His New Buzzed Hair’Do Posted: 06 Jan 2011 11:06 AM PST A couple of weeks ago we got our first look at Zac Efron‘s new shaved hair’do (which he cut for his new film The Lucky One) and today we get to see a batch of photos of shorn tween heartthrob showing off his buzzcut on the streets of SoCal. As much as I miss Zac‘s longer, perfect hair … the buzzed look is growing on me.

Breaking News: Johnny Weir Comes Out As Gay Posted: 06 Jan 2011 10:21 AM PST I’m not certain if any of y’all know this but … Olympic ice skater Johnny Weir has not actually come out as gay … until now. In his new memoir, Welcome to my World (due out next Tuesday January 11), Weir finally confirms his worst kept secret … that he is a gay man. While this may not sound significant to most, I think it’s really fantastic that Johnny is finally comfortable enough to publicly confirm his sexuality to the world.
Being gay myself, I could NEVER fault anyone for choosing not to come out publicly. The process is such a personal one, I could never condone forcing my needs on anyone else when it comes to something as personal as their sexual orientation. I do applaud and commend Johnny for choosing to come out publicly, which is no small feat despite the countless number of people who have “always known” that he is gay. I sincerely hope that Johnny‘s coming out will inspire others to do the same … or, at the very least, make them feel not so alone. This is fantastic news, y’all … Yay for Johnny Weir!! |
Posted: 06 Jan 2011 08:53 AM PST Unfortunately, we’ve got our first celebrity arrest for drunk driving for 2011 … and it hasn’t even been a full week yet. Actress Jaime Pressly got pulled over for committing a traffic violation in Santa Monica, CA last night and according to police she failed a field sobriety test. Pressly was then arrested and booked on suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol. She got busted, y’all!
Not that she needs to be commended for this but I am very happy to know that Pressly wasn’t stupid enough to drive drunk with any of her children in the car. Still, the fact that her bail was set at the much higher $15k rather than the normal $5k suggests that her blood alcohol level was pretty high. Drunk driving is among the MOST selfish crimes that people commit because they not only endanger their own lives but they endanger the lives of other innocent drivers on the road. While it’s extremely upsetting that we can’t go very long without a celeb getting busted for DUI, it’s even more upsetting to know that non-famous drunk drivers get busted (and sometimes tragically injure or kill others) every single day. Please, y’all, don’t drink and drive. [Source] |
Courtney Love Gets Sued For Defamation Posted: 06 Jan 2011 08:27 AM PST Anyone who’s ever tried to follow Courtney Love on Twitter knows that it is very difficult to wade thru her barrage of senseless messages to find anything that remotely resembles sanity. BUT, it turns out that a selection of her tweets managed to grab the attention of a fashion designer who claims that C. Love publicly disparaging her good name online … so now she’s suing Courtney for defamation.
What. The. Eff. I mean … this is huge! The ruling in this case could set wide-reaching legal precedence in terms of the way people use Twitter. On the one hand, I find it hard to argue that calling someone a “drug-pushing prostitute” could be considered an “op ed” piece … on the other hand, referring to Courtney Love as a “fashion icon” is practically insane. I am VERY interested and curious to see how this court case lays out. What do y’all think? Based on what is reported here, do you think Courtney is screwed by or justified in her public comments?

Lindsay Lohan BUSTED . . . With A Parking Ticket Posted: 06 Jan 2011 07:57 AM PST Lindsay Lohan has only been out of rehab for a few days and she’s already suffered her first run-in with the law. Yes folks, Lindsay got busted again. Thankfully for her, this latest bust was only the minorest of traffic offenses but, as we all know, it’s a slippery slope from parking ticket to PRISON! Well, okay … maybe not … but for someone as calamitous as Lindsay Lohan, it’s not a good sign that homegirl is in trouble, no matter how slight, again.
Early last month we learned that L. Lo only just got her driver’s license reinstated … and she’s already collecting parking tickets … tsk tsk tsk. In her favor, tho, she does look really fantastic in this photo … so good for her on that count. We are still waiting to hear if Lindsay will be punished for her alleged probation violation so … these happy, carefree days at the gym, hair salon and visiting friends may be over very soon. See … told ya … only Lindsay Lohan could go from a parking ticket to a jail cell in record time. |
First Listen: A Demo Of Britney Spears’s New Single Leaks To The Internets [UPDATE] Posted: 06 Jan 2011 07:29 AM PST I’ve got some possible new Britney Spears news to pass along today … last night, a demo track showed up on You Tube that purports to be the demo version of Britney Spears‘s new single Hold It Against Me. The electronic-sounding track features lyrics that have reportedly been linked to the song. Today there is NEW word that the leaked demo may be genuine!! While the skeptic in at first doubted that this “demo” has anything at all to do with Britney‘s new single, there is growing likelihood that it could be the real deal (which we won’t know for sure until we get official confirmation). Considering how close to the vest Britney‘s people have been playing the release of her new music, I find it shocking that a demo of the song could leak online so easily. What do y’all think … could this be an actual demo of the song? UPDATE: Popjustice is reporting that this track is the actual demo of Britney‘s single Hold It Against Me. According to the site, The next time you hear this song …the production, vocal and structure will sound very different. And you don’t have very long to wait. So … uh … there you go. Apparently the woman singing on this track is Bonnie McKee, the songwriter of the track (who also wrote California Gurls and Teenage Dream for Katy Perry and Dynamite for Taio Cruz). It’s sounding more and more likely that this is Britney‘s new single … now what do y’all think? UPDATE 2: Producer Dr. Luke has finally chimed in about the demo, confirming that it is a genuine, early version of the song: that version of hold it against me is really really old… it don’t sound like that anymore… it’s WAY better :-p In other Britney Spears news, her manager Adam Leber posted a message on his official Twitter profile announcing that he met with the folks at iTunes to talk about the release of her new album. Oh and he also promises an official announcement about when we can hear the first single for ourselves: As I reported yesterday, there is a plan in the works by Britney‘s record label to get fan participation involved in the release of the single … but we still don’t know when the blessed event will take place. Soon, y’all … I can feel it … we’ll be jammin’ to Britney‘s version of this new song very soon. [Source, Source, Source, Source, thanks Tom] |
