The premiere of the video for “Love Story” airs tonight (Sept. 12) at 8:30 ET on CMT and will play every 30 minutes for 2 hours.

Taylor talked to Billboard saying the song is about:

“a love that you’ve got to hide because for whatever reason it wouldn’t go over well. I spun it in the direction of ‘Romeo and Juliet’; our parents are fighting. I relate to it more as a love that you cannot really elaborate on — a love that maybe society wouldn’t accept [or] maybe your friends wouldn’t accept.”

“Fearless” can be pre-ordered in a couple of different formats. One way being an edition limited to 10,000 copies, in which fans can contribute a picture of themselves for the packaging.

Another way of purchase is a $75 boxed set featuring a t-shirt, leather bracelet, photo album and sticker. One lucky winner for purchasing this version will win a trip to see Swift in concert as well as an autographed guitar.

Britney has just confirmed that she will open the 2008 Video Music Awards which are taking place at Paramount Studios in Hollywood:

“MTV has long played an important role in my career,” Britney says in a statement. “How can I not be there to kick off their 25th VMA’s? I’m excited to open the entire show, to say hi to my fans and to be nominated.”

She hasn’t yet won but maybe this year will be her year as she is nominated for three: Best Female Video, Best Pop Video, and Video of the Year for “Piece of Me.”

No performance is scheduled but she has a surprise in the works. Van Toffler president of MTV Networks Music/LOGO/Films Group said:

“Britney has done everything from perform with a snake, lock lips with Madonna and prove that what happens in Vegas doesn’t always stay in Vegas. I can’t wait to see what she does to kick off this year’s show.”

So it’s official. Should be an interesting show. She’s looking great, feeling better, been behaving herself lately, hopefully this gives her a boost.

Joe Jonas the oldest Jonas Brother looking good real good in uniform wearing a moustache in Central Park on Thursday. He dressed as a New York City Police officer for a scene that will appear in their upcoming 3D Concert film that premieres on February 22/09.

He pretends to arrest someone when he slaps a set handcuffs on another cast member in another scene. Joe always plays the mustache-sporting cop in all the Jonas videos! In case you may have forgotten, last June when the “Burning Up” music video was released he played a Miami Vice 70’s style cop as well.

Joe turns 19 on Friday. Happy Birthday!

Britney showing her love for Louis Vuitton in one of her videos without permission is not a good idea. The company has come to an agreement and made an out of court settlement with Sony BMG, which also represents Da Brat, and Reuben Stoddard - all of whom used the brand without authorization.

Louis Vuitton was awarded an undisclosed settlement after battling the label for the past five years. The amount of the sum is reportedly around $300,000. The design house didn’t like the use of the Louis Vuitton brand in a Da Brat video back in 2003, when the rapper was playing with an LV-printed beach ball.

It also didn’t approve of other uses of their designer label. Britney Spears rolled around in a pink Hummer with an LV-patterned dashboard in the “Do Somethin’ ” video. When asked about the video, the spokesperson said, “We don’t make dashboards.”

“American Idol” winner Ruben Studdard’s R&B 2006 album, “The Return,” showed a jacket with the monogram label printed on it.

“We believe the terms of this agreement will provide strong protection to our brand worldwide,” Nathalie Moulle-Berteaux, a spokesperson for the Parisian fashion house, said in a statement. She added that the label also agreed “to educate its record labels,” which include Arista, Columbia and Epic, about copyright laws.

A spokesperson for the record label declined to comment on the issue.

It was reported awhile back that Akon and Michael Jackson were in the studio working on some brand new material. A leaked track from their studio sessions has now surfaced. ‘Hold My Hand.’

It’s kind of nice hearing MJ hit the mic once again. It’s a soft sweet song actually.

Check it out:

Teacher Kathy Amati told a local paper that the kids had been watching JLo’s video everyday eventually learning the lyrics and dance moves.

“From the minute we wrote the letters, they just automatically thought she would come,” Ms. Amati told press.

After receiving the letters, JLo’s reps called inquiring as to the time of the graduation ceremony so that she could attend.

Here is a picture of the happy couple returning home to Belgium after the concert with their bundles of joy.

So the Pussycat Dolls video premiered this weekend and might I say its a very catchy song. The video is ok… I am sure no one dislikes a bunch of hot girls running around and jumping on cars the tops of cars. I am surprised that Nicole still gets all the close ups.. you think that after her solo album crashed and burned that they would give the other girls a bit of the spotlight then again maybe not.. Britney didn’t appear in the video like she was supposed to.. no word as to why. Neither the PCD nor Britney’s rep will comment on why Britney was axed from the video.

David cook will be in the recording studio working on his debut album over the summer. The AI winner plans to get it done while being on the road with the AI Live! Tour 2008 which starts July 1 in Glendale Arizona.

Some of the tour cities will be: Las Vegas, LA, Detroit, Baltimore and Philadelphia and is expected to wrap up on September 13 in Tulsa Oklahoma.

Cook has signed on with 19 Recordings/RCA Records and his digital songs chart is on fire with 17 tracks in the top 100, a record for a solo artist! Congrats!

His first single, “The Time Of My Life,” has sold 236,000 digital tracks on iTunes in four days, making it the No. 1 — best single debut of any “American Idol” since season 2.

Maria’s song “Touch My Body,” is now her 18th Number 1 single putting her ahead of Elvis Presley’s record for the most chart topping hits on Billboard Hot 100 List.. Congrats girl!
“I really can never put myself in the category of people who have not only revolutionized music but also changed the world,” Mariah told the AP. “That’s a completely different era and time … I’m just feeling really happy and grateful.”
“Touch My Body” is the first single off her new album E=MC2, which hits record stores April 16th.

I am kind of partial to the song, and the video is sort of cute, and Mariah looks really young for her age. I wonder if they did any retouching in the video.

Is this some kind of joke? It seems like all Heidi does is frolic at the beach, and then she does that for her music video?! She isn’t even that hot, and she couldn’t even lipsync her song properly for the video! I am absolutely disgusted by Heidi (which is one of the reasons why I don’t post much about her). She is such a fame seeking biatch, that doesn’t have any reason to be famous.

Is this even the real video? Or is this some kind of joke?
