- Britney Spears news time! Where to begin? We’ll start here: a thirty-second clip of Britney Spears’ almost-didn’t-happen, paparazzi-criticizing new video for “Piece of Me” can be viewed here. Want to see more? Tune into 20/20 tonight at 10 PM on ABC to see more clips and a report about the singer. Her train is so wrecked, in fact, that American Idol doesn’t want anything to with her, as executive producer Nigel Lythgoe tells Us that the poptart won’t appear on AI because “I don’t think she is well enough to do anything.” She is well enough to do one thing: Party! After not appearing at a court deposition because she was “too ill,” Brit showed up at her Hollywood hotspots ’til 2 AM, prompting her ex Kevin Federline to ask the court to not allow Spears to argue for more custody of their children.
- Janet Jackson will release her new album Discipline, produced by Rodney Jenkins, the Dream, Ne-Yo and her boyfriend Jermaine Dupri, on February 26th. The first single from the album is “Feedback,” which you can find here.
- Twisted Sister are accused of not refunding $25,000 they were given for a troops-supporting benefit show that was canceled. When the lure of the hair-metal band only managed to sell eighty-seven tickets, the concert was scrapped, and now the band is not only reportedly keeping their upfront fee, they’re demanding the remainder of the $25,000 they’re owed for not performing.
- The Drive-By Truckers will release their eighth album Brighter Than Creation’s Dark on January 28th. They’ll support the nineteen-song LP with a twenty-nine-city tour that kicks off February 11th in Anaheim, California.
- In what could be the strangest lawsuit ever, a strange, strange audiophile named Samuel Livingstone filed a class action suit against Activision, the makers of Guitar Hero III for saying that the Nintendo Wii version of the game comes with “Dolby Pro Logic II” sound when it’s only actually mono. Because when you’re fake-playing music, stereo sound is so necessary.
