IN OTHER NEWS


Someone leaked AARRAHH's album, dang:
While the sexual escapades on last year's Double Up were cloaked in abstruse (and awesome) metaphors involving space exploration and visits to the zoo, the ones on R. Kelly's new 12 Play: Fourth Quarter are pretty much left out in the open. In fact, Kellz makes his intentions clearer here than he has on any track since "I Like the Crotch on You.".......

Given his legendary discography, none of these tracks are in any danger of becoming greatest hits, but "Might Be Mine" is probably still ridiculous enough to earn a spot on our ever-growing iTunes playlist of completely insane R. Kelly songs.

I actually heard the song 'sign' last night and that dude actually said something about being a girl's toy/ call him lagos. In the words of Jim Jones, what a dweeb.

Puffy finally gets in Nelly in his underwear. Nelly was named the face of the Sean John underwear. This is surprising considering he has his own line and he's not a new artist. if he were to get an endorsement, I would think he would want a more high end brand.

Diddy sings Nelly's praises saying:
Nelly has the attitude, the swagger, and most of all the physique that our customers can both aspire and relate to … And let’s be honest, all of the ladies out there are going to be thanking us for this campaign.”

Although the hip-hop bad boy from America is the first spokesmodel for the brand's underwear basics and loungewear category, Nelly follows a long list of celebrity models for Sean John including Dwayne Wade, Nas, Snoop Dog, Lil' Wayne, Penelope Cruz, Cassie, and Lauren London.

Nelly's next album is due out September 2008 with guest appearances from Akon, Polow da Don, Ashanti, Jermain Dupre, Fergie, Ciara, and more.


Ciara's also eyeing an underwear gig.

Wilhelmina president Sean Patterson speaks of Ciara highly:
“She is the complete package. She is model made, with perfect size, perfect height (Ciara is 5 feet, 7 inches tall), a beautiful body and face. Take the music and dancing away, and she’s still gorgeous.”

So what do they have planed first for Ciara, who just finished her one year contract with Rocawear? Victoria’s Secret. “It’s a perfect fit,” Lisa Cambridge of Zomba Label Group was quoted as saying, since it “plays with her personality and her coming of age. It’s tasteful, sexy and beautiful, just like her.”

Her team also touched on an athletic company they are also working with but would not give up a name. They say it will show off her athletic side.

Her next album “Fantasy Ride” drops in the fall with appearances by Akon, Lil Jon, The-Dream and Ludacris.

Ciara also wants to expand her acting career but don’t look for her in a starring role on the big screen just yet. Unfortunately her “Mama, I Want To Sing” is going straight to DVD in early 2009. This is Ciara's second acting role; she made her debut with a supporting part in the 2006 MTV Films production "All You've Got," which starred Adrienne Bailon and Efren Ramirez.
