You Can't Stop the Bieb
- Justin Bieber is not only providing the vocals for the chorus of Sean Kingston's new song "Won't Stop" - he's also rapping in it. And here I was hoping his whole "Shawty Mane" persona was just a joke. (JSYK)
- "Never Say Never" had its Toronto premiere on Tuesday, and its NYC premiere on Wednesday. And here I thought the Snowpocalypse had shut down travel across North America.... (JJJ)
- Bieber tweeted a link to a video he did for the Grammys, where he talks about his early influences and does a cover of "Fast Car" by Tracy Chapman. (JSYK)
- He won't confirm or deny that they're dating, but JB will admit that Selena Gomez is one of his best friends. Under some circumstances, that would be a bit of a red flag. (Teen)
- Bieb taught Regis and Kelly how to Dougie. Anyone else hope that when Reg retires this year, JB takes his spot? (Cambio)
- On Letterman this week, Justin denied allegations that he was manufactured by music industry bigwigs. He is a free-range organic pop star. (Cambio)
- To help boost interest in his upcoming film, the young Justin Bieber is releasing a 7-track album called "Never Say Never - The Remixes". Guest artists featured in these remixes include Usher, Miley, Jaden Smith, Rascal Flatts, and others. (Cambio)
TV
- ABC Family has green-lit three new series: "Switched at Birth", "The Great State of Georgia", and most importantly "The Nine Lives of Chloe King," starring the one and onlySkyler Samuels! (Cambio) Chloe King pix here (JJJ)
- It seems that Miley Cyrus has gotten her 4th tattoo. It's on her rib cage, in case anyone cares. (X17)
- Pay close attention to the Super Bowl commercials - the ad for "Rio" will include a special code that will unlock a special level in Angry Birds. Sweet! The actual Angry Birds Rio game will be available in March, and will have 45 levels. (JSYK)
- For the first time in its 45 years, the Super Bowl will have no professional cheerleaderswhatsoever. The cast of "Hellcats" are upset, presumably because now no one will ever want to see cheerleaders ever again. (Cambio)
- Lifetime is making a TV movie about the upcoming royal wedding between Prince William and Kate Middleton. No announcement yet on whether they'll also make a movie about Hugh Hefner and his blushing bride-to-be. (Cambio)
- Chloe Moretz just taped a guest spot on 30 Rock, which is apparently located on the corner of Awesome St and Badass Ave. (JJJ)
Music
- Mindless Behavior will open for Janet Jackson on her North American tour. (Cambio)
- The band Hey Monday is releasing a new version of their song "Candles" on iTunes. Yay. (JSYK)
- Selena Gomez uploaded a video of herself rapping along to Nicki Minaj. She's clearly bored and needs a productive hobby. (JSYK)
- Demi Lovato's album "Don't Forget" has gone gold. Not bad for a first album. I mean, it's no platinum... (Cambio)
- Joe Jonas filmed a video for Funny or Die. Keep an eye out for that one. (Cambio)
- According to Perez Hilton, the rumors that Britney Spears had to use a dance-double in her latest music video are completely unfounded. They had to use a double for the scene where she fights herself, but Brit did all he dancing on her own. Whew. (Cambio)
- Gwyneth Paltrow and Cee-Lo will do a song with the Muppets at the Grammys this year. Did that sound like a Mad-Lib to anyone else? (Cambio)
- Also, Selena Gomez will be a Grammy presenter. (JJJ)
- The Academy of Country Music Award nominations were announced this week. If this is in any way relevant to your life, you can check out the full list of nominees here. (Cambio)
Movies
- Henry Cavill will play Superman in the upcoming reboot, but Kristin Stewart will not be his Lois Lane (not because she turned down the role, but because she hasn't been approached to play it yet). (Cambio)
- Halle Berry had to drop out of the film "New Year's Eve" due to an upcoming custody battle, and Katherine Heigl stepped up to take her place. The movie is a sequel to "Valentine's Day" and will star Ashton Kutcher, Jessica Biel, Zac Efron, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Lea Michele. (Cambio)
- Mark Wahlberg has decided to get his high school diploma, and has hired a tutor to help him reach his goal before his kids get their own diplomas. His lack of education certainly hasn't stood between him and success, but it's great that he still wants to go for it. (Cambio)
Extraordinary Ordinary Kids
- A 19-year-old Massachusetts boy saved his 97-year-old neighbor from a house fire. He saw smoke while he was taking out the trash, so he broke into his neighbor's home and guided her outside to safety. Pretty brave, if you ask me. (JSYK)
Doing Good
- Kat Graham is asking fans to join her in donating to The Water Project, a charity that helps communities in underdeveloped countries get access to clean water. Her goal is $5,000. (JSYK)
- Natalie Portman has teamed up with Free the Children, a charity that helps empower girls around the world through education. She is spearheading a new fundraising push that will send girls to FtC's new all-girls high school in Kenya. (Cambio)
- When a 7-year-old iCarly fan couldn't make it to Miranda Cosgrove's concert in Chicago because she couldn't leave the hospital, Miranda brought the concert to the fan, singing three songs just for her in the little girl's hospital room. So sweet. (JJJ)
- Hansen (yes, the band from the '90s) played a free concert at the 100 Club in London, as part of an effort to save the legendary venue from shutting down due to rising rents. So, in order to raise money, they didn't charge anything for tickets. I'm no math scientist, but that just doesn't add up. (Cambio)
Magazines
- Miranda Cosgrove is on the cover of Seventeen
- Ashley Greene will be on the March edition of Teen Vogue.
