Kelis Leaks New Song 'Acapella' on Twitter

Stop what you're doing! Kelis just leaked her new, David Guetta produced, electro-club-banger "Acapella" on Twitter @IAmKelis. She's back with a new sound, a new look, and even a new label.

Kelis also posted a special message to her fans on her new website.

"Well, walking through the streets of NY this summer...I use the term walking loosely...I was extremely pregnant and probably doing more of a very slow creep down each humid sticky block...people had so much to say to me. You know us New Yorkers don't ever keep anything to ourselves...I was asked if I would ever put another album out. I suppose people assumed after the baby and divorce and all the time I took off (went to culinary school during my break which was amazing and another conversation) that it would be on to motherhood for me. And well that's true...as I lay here with my perfect little won ton now writing you all this message. My answer was always the same. "Soon come guys" ;) and so here we are. My album is pretty much done. I signed a new deal and I'm madly in love with life and ready to share something with you. My song is called "Acapella" and I wrote it with love and life in mind. I hope that it finds you well and that you love it, cause honestly I do! Muah!"

-Kelis

"P.S. to all the people who have stuck around and supported me all these years do know that I sincerely feel you and love you! We did this all together"

Introducing Debi Nova!

Already a massive star in her native Costa Rica, with six Grammy Award nominations and a number one dance single under her belt, singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Debi Nova is ready to make her mark on the rest of the world. In March 2010, Decca Records will release Nova’s genre-defying, debut album Luna Nueva. The album is an electrifying combination of irresistible Latin rhythms and potent pop smarts that showcase this vivacious artist's considerable musical gifts (she plays piano, guitar, bass and more) as well as her rich Latina heritage.

Produced by multi-Grammy nominated Marius de Vries (Madonna, Josh Groban) and Gustavo Santaolalla ("Brokeback Mountain," "Babel"), Luna Nueva is a labor of love, long in the making, which not only showcases Nova’s electrifying vocals and musicianship, but her songwriting talents as well. The first single is the playful soca/hip-hop inspired “Drummer Boy.”

Debi has toured with both Ricky Martin and Sergio Mendes as a featured vocalist and has performed for more than 8 million people globally. As a songwriter, the Costa Rican beauty has written hit songs for Belinda and RBD, two of Latin Americas biggest artists.

Learn more about Debi's process of recording an album in both English and Spanish in this new EPK and experience her sound first hand on "Drummer Boy."

Alexa Davalos Is Andromeda in the New Clash of the Titans

There's a new Clash of the Titans movie and it has Alexa Davalos as Andromeda. In the original made in 1981, Andromeda is played by actress Judi Bowker. Davalos steps into her shoes (and robes) as the maiden to be rescued by Perseus, played now by Sam Worthington.

Fans of Davalos would know she played a grown-up Kyra in The Chronicles of Riddick. She died in that movie after having unwillingly dipped her mind and soul into the dark religion of the Necromongers. It's the second transformation of the character which was introduced as an innocent young girl in Pitch Black. In The Chronicles of Riddick, Davalos wore a hip-hop-inspired outfit. In Clash of the Titans, she wears a ancient Greek dress.

We all know that Davalos, as Andromeda, will be chained to a rock by the sea to be eaten by the sea monster, Cetus. Of course, as the myth goes, she will be rescued by Perseus who she gets to marry. That's Andromeda. Alexa Davalos is not Andromeda. That's just a character she plays. She can definitely hold her own without anyone to rescue her or tell her how good she looks. In the photo above, she's depicted as a classic pin-up girl.

Seal To Release 'Hits' Album On December 8

SEAL TO RELEASE HITS ALBUM DECEMBER 8

Multi-Platinum Singer-Songwriter Delivers Greatest Hits Package From His Chart-Topping Albums

Grammy-winning vocalist and songwriter Seal will release a collection of his greatest songs on one CD, HITS, to be released December 8, 2009 on Warner Bros. Records. Fans can purchase a CD or CD/DVD package which includes the Seal 'Soul Live' dvd with nine amazing live performances from his worldwide hit album Soul.

Seal Hits will span the artist’s 20 year career and be comprised of sixteen of Seal’s biggest hit songs, along with two brand new tracks. These two new recordings, produced by David Foster, extend the concept of Seal’s hugely successful 2008 covers album, Soul, which has sold more than three million units worldwide and received international critical acclaim. Seal brings his unique and exquisite vocal style to “I Am Your Man” written by Ashford & Simpson, first recorded by Bobby Taylor, and the Sly and The Family Stone classic “Thank You”. Seal is currently in the studio recording a new album of original material to be released in 2010.
The London-born Seal first emerged from Britain’s house music scene in the early ’90s providing vocals and lyrics for techno artist Adamski’s 1990 hit “Killer.” The Top Ten debut single, “Crazy,” followed and Seal would go on to earn critical acclaim and worldwide commercial success over five albums. Seal’s prodigious vocal gifts — his soaring, husky baritone that has become a signature on such hits as “Prayer for the Dying,” “Kiss From a Rose,” and “Don’t Cry” — amplify the emotion he brings to a song.

Gemma Arterton Slips into the Sands of Time in The Prince of Persia

Gemma Arterton is Tamina. Do you know who Tamina is? Well, she's the lady character and love interest of Prince Dastan in The movie adaptation of the classic video game, The Prince of Persia.

Subtitled, The Sands of Time, the movie features Jake Gyllenhaal in the lead role. Gyllenhaal's Prince Dastand and Arterton's Tamina are in a playful love-hate relationship in the movie - a kind of courtship that ends in the two getting deeper into each other even when they start out as rivals.

Tamina is supposed to be the lady-in-distress in the movie, but for the most part, it's Prince Dastan who appears to be in need of rescuing as he gets into all manner of dangerous situations that imperil his life. Tamina just smoothly goes through them all, confident of her own abilities. Arterton's character is really akin to that of a modern day woman who can hold her own.

As an actress and model, Arterton definitely can hold her own in these pictures. She's the kind of woman that commands attention in her pictures, which is very true for her face. The photographer of her portrait used for one of the The Prince of Persia promotional movie posters (left) certainly knew this and made the most of it. Arterton also appeared in Quantum of Solace as Strawberry Fields.
