Ciara and Paris Hilton partied the night away at Timbaland‘s 38th birthday party last night (April 28th). The pair joined the likes of Brandy, Ray J, Justin Timberlake, and Interscope head Jimmy Iovine, to help the hitmaker celebrate at Drai’s at The W Hotel Hollywood.

Ahead of tomorrow’s première of the video for Christina Aguilera‘s new single ‘Not Myself Tonight’, another still from the clip has surfaced. It’s certainly looking as though the mother of one is going the ‘shock and awe’ route this go round.

Granted it’s her old stomping ground (see: ‘Stripped’ project), it definitely won’t help them pesky GaGa comparisons, will it? Particularly when Xtina is the one struggling to get things popping on the charts, with ‘Not Myself Tonight’ dropping a whopping #23-#49 on the Billboard Hot 100 this week.

In any case, check out Christina talking about working with director Hype Williams on the song’s video below…

While Eminem continues to put the final touches to his new LP ‘Recovery’, the set’s first single has ‘Not Afraid’ surfaced a few moments ago. Check out the Boi-1da produced song below, as well as the ‘Recovery’ album cover after the jump…

Peep singing sensation Leona Leona posing it up on the cover of InStyle‘s June 2010 issue. The East London bred star spoke to the magazine about wanting a career like Madonna, being punched in the  face last year, and more. Her quotes (and a random rant) after the jump…

According to our friends over at Rap-Up, gyrating Pop starlet Shakira is already hard at work on the follow-up to last year’s ‘She Wolf’ LP. Indeed, the 32 year old recently clocked up studio time in Miami with hitmaker Rico Love, who dished on the project. Check out what he had to say below…

During LeToya‘s set at R&B Live tonight, she was joined on-stage by fellow Destiny’s Child alumni Michelle Williams.

While the nature of the pair’s collaboration remains unknown (though both Williams and Luckett suspiciously allude to a surprise on Twitter), it’s definitely pleasantly surprising to see them teaming up.

Pit against each other for years, after Williams replaced Luckett in Destiny’s Child (who went on to achieve their great success as a trio), this marks the first time the ladies have been snapped together.

It’ll certainly be interesting to see how this plays out!

Hit or Miss?

British boyband JLS have confirmed that the first single to be lifted from their as-yet-untitled sophomore LP is titled ‘The Club Is Alive’.

Set for release on July 4th, the song’s accompanying video will be shot in the US, where the four-piece are currently recording new material.

————————————————

While it’s a given that JLS’ music and artistry hardly rock my world, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t a little glad to see such a group succeeding (take from that what you will) – even if they are kinda rubbish LOL. Saying that, surely a little more downtime to work on their craft, before the release of a new album, wouldn’t go amiss. They clearly need it.

Still, I guess with the group catering to the ficklest of audiences, actually being any good doesn’t really matter. In any case, it’ll be interesting to see what they serve up this go round.

Peep Barbados’ Next Top Model, Rihanna, performing in Oberhausen, Germany earlier this week. I guess when lacking in other areas (and ‘lacking’ Ms. Fenty is), the over-selling of sex (appeal) is the next best thing. Oh the industry of today…
