I'll be bringing you the new buzz in music from my Hollywood Soundtrack Special. You won't be able to get this tune out of your head.
After announcing his retirement from the industry four years ago, Marshall "Eminem" Mathers is working on a new album. Rumors have been spreading around the internet like wildfire about a release date or an upcoming single. While neither Eminem nor his record label has confirmed anything, in a recent BBC Radio 1 interview, 50 Cent has claimed his buddy is working hard and has a lot to get off his chest. Does he still have it after being AWOL for so long? His loyal fans would say Slim Shady will be better than ever.
The music video for Katy Perry's song "Hot 'N' Cold" hit youtube.com last week, and it has been stuck in my head ever since! After her amazing success with "I Kissed a Girl," I was afraid Miss Perry was heading into One Hit Wonder Land. I think her catchy beats and quirky style are sure to be around for a long time.
Caution: Heading into Screaming Teen Zone! Disney's "High School Musical (HSM) 3: Senior Year" is coming to a theater near you on Oct. 24! While I am very excited to see the adorable third HSM movie with their unrealistic ideas of high school and buying the sugar-coated soundtrack, I will not be entering a Wal-Mart or a Target for the next few weeks in fear of being attacked by a crazed soccer mom wielding an East High Wildcat cheerleading costume and a Troy Bolton lunch box. Stores will be filled with all things HSM. Beware.
On Oct. 7, Columbia Records will be releasing Bob Dylan's new album, "Tell Tale Signs." A preview on npr.com described the piece as "a rare glimpse into Dylan's creative process, with alternate takes that show the evolution of his work, as his songs take shape lyrically and musically." Get ready to be even more amazed by one of America's greatest songwriters.
Starting in October, the last week of every month will be Hollywood and Vine's Advice Edition. So please start e-mailing me questions about your relationships, fashion trends or modern life and I will be giving out my best advice. I am so excited to hear from you! This has been Alicia Lebens from Hollywood and Vine. See you next week!
