“Britney Spears is spending her summer in the recording studio, working on a brand new album,” manager Larry Rudolph said Tuesday in a statement released by Jive Records.

“She’s working with a team of top-notch producers and songwriters, and we’re very excited about what she’s accomplished so far. No album release date has been confirmed yet.”

Nice to hear she is keeping busy. Not only has she done her television guest appearance work, she also filmed a video segment in Hollywood that is expected to be part of Madonna’s upcoming Sticky & Sweet tour.

Her album “Identified” will be out in stores July 1st, and this song is a bonus track available only in the Japanese version.

In a recent review in Entertainment Weekly, she says her new album is:

“Definitely sophisticated” but also thinks it’s “funky and fun.”

Some of the more standout tracks are: “Sneakernight,” “First Bad Habit,” and “Gone With The Wind.” “Sneakernight” is available on iTunes now.

Check out this picture of Mariah in a bikini. This photo was snapped of her in Hawaii where she is filming her latest video. It seems to appear that her abs may have been sprayed on with sunless tanner. Thoughts?

It’s times like these that I am sooooooo thankful I’m just an average chica. I’d go out of my mind if the paparazzi were stalking me for pictures of unflattering shots of me in a bikini!

Beyonce and Kelly Rowland aren’t the only ones deserving of a career after Destiny’s Child. The third former Destiny’s Child singer Michelle Williams filmed her new ‘We Break the Dawn’ music video in downtown Los Angeles on Wednesday. The 27-year old singer strutted her stuff through the streets of LA while being surrounded by a pack of muscular men. Now that is every girl’s dream. It looks like Michelle is going back to the R&B hip hop scene as opposed to the Christian music genre when she first went solo. If she wants to keep up with Beyonce and Kelly, the R&B scene is where she has to be.

Cassie is shooting her new video for her hit song Official Girl. I have to say she looks super hot with that stripe dress and those sexy boots. I have to get me a pair of those because they are just too sexy! I really like her dress too. If you are wondering where the shoot took place, it was in Manhattan, in New York City

Can’t wait to see the video

Check out Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams on a fresh out UTube video. Notice the cryptic message about being at an undisclosed location… could it be New York for the wedding of Jay-Z and Beyonce? How exciting are they are going to be two of her bridesmaids!

Is Michelle trying to sound like a gangsta? How ghetto-fabulous she seems in this clip!
In case you were wondering, the song at the beginning that they are singing is Falsetto by The Dream. It’s a great tune.

I just love Ashlee’s new look, her nose is just amazing! Her video is pretty cute, not sure why she has the brown wig that is so her like last year. She should stick to her blondness it’s doing her well.

The “Britney Spears Wants a Piece of You” contest launches on Monday, and MTV will open its treasure chest of their footage shots of her over the years. Fans can access the various clips of her interviews, performances, and red carpet poses via the MTV Video Remixer.

Pick some clips, mix them up and then send off your submission by December 14th. The winning video will be chosen by Britney, MTV, and Jive Records and it will be premiered exclusively on TRL on December 20th.

The winning “Piece of Me” video will also have an all-day premiere on MTV Hits and an online premiere on MTV.com!

Britney is on the next set of her video for ‘Piece of Me’. Britney’s video is about her trying to ’sneak’ into a club but of course the paparazzi find her. She has a bunch of fake Britney’s running around. You think she would pick a more original idea rather than trying to get into a club!

Either way here are the pictures for your enjoyment!

Thought you might all enjoy this little clip for Gwen Stefani’s new music video for “Early Winter”. I like it! I have to say she is looking very sexy in this video. Her hairstyle is great, and her makeup is done perfectly!
