How many icebergs can James Cameron hit on his way to releasing Avatar? The hammy and confusing trailer started us thinking we may not elect to see the 3D epic once, much less the multiple times we saw Titanic. But now comes Leona Lewis’ vibrato-tastic theme song for the movie. Better start counting lifeboats—we bring you “I See You”: MORE »

Big pianos. Big beats. Ill flows. That’s how Alicia Keys described “Put It In A Love Song,” her duet with Beyonce, to BET. The track appears on Keys’ The Element Of Freedom, which is out December 15.

“We just had a party in the studio,” Keys said. “We’ve known each other for a lot of years, and obviously this is the first time we’ve been able to collaborate.”

Nifty! And even better—the song has leaked. Catch it below! MORE »

Beyoncé’s hit single ‘Halo’ was not originally penned for Leona Lewis, songwriter Ryan Tedder has insisted.

The One Republic frontman admitted that he only tentatively offered the track to Lewis after Beyoncé initially took a long time to record it.

"There was this huge scandal that originally ‘Halo’ was meant to go to Leona. That was never the case," he told Alex and Lucy on Key 103’s In:Demand.

"I’m putting that rumor to bed right now. That song was written for Beyoncé. What happened was that Beyoncé waited long enough to record that song that I had no communication with her and didn’t know if she was going to do it or not.

"I thought this would be a brilliant first single for Leona, which it would have. When you have a song as special as ‘Halo’, you don’t want anyone else to sit on it. So sometimes you have to pull the whole, ‘Well, I’m going to get someone else on it’, to prove a point.

"What I did was foolishly say to Leona’s camp, ‘I have it on hold for another A-list artist and I’m pretty sure they’ll take it, but if they don’t, I just want to know if you like it enough to consider it.’

"I sent it to them and they flipped on it. They loved it and instantly said they wanted to do it. I was like, ‘Wait, wait, wait, no, it’s not free yet! It’s just in case."

Beyoncé reached No. 5 with the single on the Billboard Hot 100 in January.

I GOT YOU! (US/Canadian Single)

Update of this post

Despite the UK’s Radio1 confirming that the “Outta My Head” would be the second single from Leona Lewis’ sophomore album Echo, All Access have now listed the R&B/Pop midtempo “I Got You” on their website with an official radio impact date of December 7.

This most likely means that the song will serve as the next US single, whilst “Outta My Head” will be released in Europe.

With it’s catchy uplifting chorus and slight urban undertones “I Got You” is definitely the standout ’single’ type track from Echo, but will it be enough to boost the album which just debuted at a disappointing #13 on the Billboard charts?

Yay! I’m so happy. I Got You should have been the first single, even though Happy kinda flopped.
Outta My Head will probably be released as the next single though since it was potentially "suppose" to be the second single (well, from the fans).

* Rhianna almost caught Gaga’s ass. WOW. Shakira is so floptastic with her debut this week. Embarrassing.

I’m really beginning to get sick of this garbage. Who’s the douche bag stylist who thought it would be a good idea to start wearing bras under see through t-shirts? Here’s Leona Lewis ruining a perfectly good chance to get in my good books. I guess it could be worse, she [...]

Morrissey is working on a leather-free range of footwear with Paul McCartney’s daughter Stella, the fashion designer has revealed.

Both Morrissey and McCartney are vegetarians, and although the pair’s designs are still in the early stages, she says they are hoping to launch the range next year.

"I’m working with Morrissey on a line of leather-free shoes which I’m really excited about," McCartney told the Daily Mail. "We are still in the early stages, but the shoes could be launched next year."

McCartney is also reportedly set to work with fellow vegetarian Leona Lewis on a new clothing range.
