Adam Lambert has revealed the cover art for his upcoming album For Your Entertainment which is slated for a November 2009 release date.  It’s got a real 80s flair to it but I’m not sure that I like it too much.  It’s okay, I guess, but I was expecting a little more.

What do you think?  Do you like the album cover?

Carrie Underwood’s NHL hockey player boyfriend, Mike Fisher, recently talked about what it’s been like to date the country music superstar.  He said that they "always find a way to make it work" despite their hectic schedules.

Mike Fisher said of dating Carrie, "It’s been good!"  He described the first time they met saying that they, "met at a concert in Toronto about a year ago, in October, "through a "friend of a friend.”

He was asked what his favorite song of hers was and he says he loves “Temporary Home” off of her upcoming album, Play On. He gushes, “I like it when she sings a good rock song.” Though he is super supportive of Carrie, he says that she’s not quite as encouraging when he tries to sing some of her tunes.

He tells NHL Online, “I try to sing some of her songs, [and] she just laughs!” They are both busy people, and he said that Carrie is constantly doing something. Mike claims that, “She’s talented and she’s getting rewarded for it. That’s good to see."

Aw! It’s so cute to see how nicely he talks about Carrie. Sounds like she’s found herself a nice man!

Last night was the premiere of Michael Jackson’s documentary, This Is It, which was made in memory of the late King of Pop and features some footage of the tour that MJ was working on before he passed away over the summer.

Season 8 runner-up, Adam Lambert was in attendance as well and dressed in all black on the red carpet. Glambert also posed for pictures with pop singer, Katy Perry. This Is It opens in theatres today and will only run for two weeks, so if you’re interested in seeing it, head on over soon. Will any of you guys be going?

The outpour of support from celebrities last night was unbelievable as they attended the world premiere of Michael Jackson’s documentary, This Is It. Those who attended the event were Paris Hilton, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Will Smith, Ashley Tisdale, Adam Lambert, Katy Perry, Jennifer Lopez and many more including American Idol’s former judge, Paula Abdul.

Paula was looking pretty on the red carpet as she arrived wearing a long blue dress and bright pink pumps. You guys liking Paula’s outfit?

If you live in Canada, you’ve probably heard “Cha Ching” by Hedley which features former Canadian Idol contestant, Jacob Hoggard, as the lead singer.  I know the video came out last month but I really didn’t pay too much attention to it at first but it seems like it’s just blown up all-of-a-sudden.

I can’t lie – the song is completely addictive.  If you haven’t heard the song, check it out and if you aren’t familiar with Jacob consider yourself forewarned about his (loveable) oddities!

The single, which pokes fun at reality television shows, is from Hedley’s upcoming The Show Must Go album which is scheduled to be released on November 15, 2009 in Canada.

American Idol season 7 runner-up, David Archuleta, sat down with ABC News Radio yesterday where he talked about his Christmas From the Heart album (it’s great, isn’t it?!?!?) and talked about his family and all of the traditions they observe during the holiday season.  He also mentioned that he’s been writing songs in Nashville and that the4 tracks are intended for his sophomore album which is due some time next year.

There are two videos from the ABC News Radio interview.  Watch the second half and David’s vlog after the jump!

Last season’s teen queen, Allison Iraheta, came just shy of making it to the finals but her debut album is still right on track.  She plans to release Just Like You on December 1, 2009 and the cover art has already been revealed. 

Allison tends to have pinkish hair so I can understand the color scheme – girly but with an edge.  I will have to say, though, that with the colors and font, I thought of Avril Lavigne for just an instant.  Clearly, they are very different artists so I’m hoping they will keep that in mind, though, as they continue their marketing campaign.

What do you think, do you like it?

The video for Adam Lambert’s song, “Time for Miracles” has been released.  The track will be included on his For Your Entertainment album that is coming out on November 23, 2009 but it will also be included on the 2012 soundtrack. 

In the video, Adam walks through a disaster-stricken city looking both grimy and optimistic among a sea of panicking people.  I’ve got to say that this is a perfect song for this type of movie and I think it could do very, very well.

Check it out and tell me what you think!

Jennifer Hudson had to have a caesarean section when she gave birth to her son, David, this past August.  While many women struggle to recover afterwards (it is a surgical procedure, after all!) Jennifer’s experience wasn’t too bad at all!

She explained: “Everybody told me how much it was going to hurt afterwards but I think I have a different tolerance for pain than others. By the night after I had the baby, I’m like, ‘Look, I can’t sit in this bed anymore. I’ve got to get up!’  I’ve been up and about since he was born. To me, the pain is no different than when you work out a muscle you’ve never worked out before and it’s sore.”

Well, as long as she made sure to take care of herself and not overdo it, I’m glad she had such a positive attitude about the recovery period.

She also talked a little about her little bundle of joy: “He has a lot of personality, like David. He’s always been a good sleeper. His favourite time to smile now is diaper changes. Or when he spits up on you – he just cracks up like he thinks it’s the funniest thing. And his bottle is his pacifier. His best friend is that bottle – that’s all he wants.”

If you’re interested, Billboard.com has a preview of “Temporary Home” which is a track from Carrie Underwood’s upcoming album Play On which will be released on November 3, 2009.

I have to say that, from what I’ve heard, I absolutely adore this song!  She sounds so beautiful and I really like the vulnerability she shows when she’s singing in the upper register.  I am really looking forward to hearing this whole alum.
