New No Doubt!

Gwen Stefani confirmed to Ryan Seacrest that a new album from the legendary band will "definitely be out this year." It's about time! As much as I love Gwen and her individual sound, I just adore No Doubt when they are all together. Gwen gave more detail....

"We’ve been going for a while trying to make this record and it’s been super challenging but really fun, we’re trying to enjoy the moment of writing and…it’s just a really fun process and I think it’s going to be out this year. It’s generally a really happy album…the main thing we were trying to do is write really catchy good songs…we got about 10 songs done and we want to do a few more just in case, but it’s a really good record, I really love this record."

Sounds encouraging! Hopefully there will be more details to follow regarding dates and such pretty soon.

Britney. Is. Back: Teasers for Hold It Against Me

In a GENIUS move, Bitney has released a very quick teaser of the video for her new single, Hold It Against Me. The plan is to release 14 trailers, each lasting only a few seconds, one on each of the 14 days remaining until the world premier of the video. It looks like it's going to succeed in whipping up quite the frenzy, as HIAM, as us fans know it by, has had lots of positive feedback from Britney lovers around the world. Of course, the dubstep influences have not been praised by everyone (most people who like dubstep aren't exactly Britney's biggest fans to begin with), but I hope that this song, and the subsequent new album, will be a huge hit for Ms. Spears.
