“Did It Again” is the next single off Shakira’s forthcoming album. If you enjoyed Shakira’s routine in “She Wolf” wait until you see how she moves in bed. The album She Wolf releases November 27.
In much related news, newly-famed rapper Kid Cudi will be featured on the remix to “Did It Again.” Go ahead and look forward to that. Also, keep in mind that this track plus five others are produced by Pharrell Williams of The Neptunes. Another track is produced by Wyclef Jean.

Ryan Leslie is an extremely talented producer-turned-musician. Check out his second album Transition on iTunes. The entire album is written, arranged, produced, and engineered by Leslie.
R.Les is a master of the keyboard and creates genius beats. If you like what you hear, make sure you also take a listen to his self-titled first studio album. Very good stuff.

I wonder if Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time movie will live up to its video game origins. It’s produced by Jerry Bruckheimer and stars the one-and-only Jake “This ain’t Brokeback Mountain” Gyllenhaal.

Oh how much I love it when networks decide to give great TV shows a deserved chance at prolonged success. And oh do I hate it when they stab us in the back (read: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, Pushing Daisies). Here’s a roundup of some of the great shows that were given “the back nine” and will complete their first seasons with 20+ episodes. (Note: Full season pickups are usually granted to new series; it is assumed that third+ year series will be given full seasons prior to the shows premieres.)
ABC: FlashForward, Modern Family, Castle
FOX: Glee, The Cleveland Show (it’s also been picked up for a second season)
NBC: Community, Parks & Recreation
All shows were granted a full 22 episode season. FlashForward, interestingly, was granted an above-average 25 episodes. Music to my ears if you ask me.
Others I don’t care much for: ABC’s Cougar Town, The Middle; CBS’s Accidentally on Purpose, NCIS: Los Angeles, The Good Wife.
What got cancelled? NBC’s Trauma. I don’t think the man in the helicoptor loves his job anymore.
I will update this space as the remainder of fall TV series are renewed and/or cancelled.
For now, celebrate by krumping along with Community’s Abed and Troy after the break!
Dig this promo spot for ABC’s upcoming sci-fi V. It features the song “Uprising,” a recent single from Muse. Peek after the break for a second trailer.

Enjoy this new spot for Fringe. It features trippy-cool music from Nine-Inch-Nails’ frontman Trent Reznor.
Fringe returns with all new episodes this Thursday at 9PM on FOX (if no baseball).
Ready for the lastest Glee news? Well here we go…
Madonna has given Glee the rights to her entire catelog of songs and a Madonna-centric episode is slated to air later this year. Ryan Murphy (co-creator) plans on approaching American Idol runner-up Adam Lambert to guest star in a future episode. (Come January Glee will be paired with American Idol on Wednesday nights, so this makes perfect sense.)
Upcoming episodes will include performances set to Tina Turner’s “Proud Mary, ” Van Halen’s “Jump,” John Lennon’s “Imagine” (which the glee club performs with a rival deaf choir (Ryan Murphy: “Everyone who sees it sheds a tear.”)), Paul Anka’s “You’re Having My Baby,” and Barbara Streisand’s “Don’t Rain on My Parade.”
On integrating Springsteen songs into the show Ryan Murphy has said: “I think Bruce is our next holy grail.” “My musical tastes begin and end with him basically” said Brad Falchuk (co-creator).
Glee returns with all new episodes November 11 at 9PM on FOX.

Now this is what the original trailer for James Cameron’s Avatar should have been. Sure, I understand that the original trailer was a teaser trailer; but with so much hype for this shot-in-3D film I feel that this trailer does the hype some justice and shares with the viewer a glipse into what the movie is actually about. Sit back, relax, and enjoy. Avatar hits theatres December 18.
