… today as she attended Mercedes Benz Los Angeles Fashion Week Spring 2008 at Smash Box Studios! The refreshed R&B singer is supposedly currently putting the finishing touches on her yet-to-be-titled fifth studio album which is tentatively scheduled for the end of 2007.

Here’s two unreleased tracks, “Follow Me” and “Deepest Thoughts”, which leaked at some point between 2006 and 2007 that really get me excited for her comeback!

Today the official Soundscan numbers were reported and Jennifer Lopez’s latest album is a super duper flop! Thus confirming something we all knew which is that Jennifer Lopez needs to retire from music (or maybe just releasing Spanish albums)! J. Lo sold a disappointing 53,000 units and failed to debut in the Top Ten (coming in at #12), such an embarrassment! I think J. Lo should focus on her pregnancy, movies, clothing line, production company etc., anything other than music! Could this be bad karma from when J. Lo and Tommy Mottola stole song samples and concepts from Mariah Carey ’s 2001 Glitter album?

Justin Timberlake’s FutureSex/LoveSounds came out way back in September 2006, but he doesn’t want you to forget about him this holiday season. The singer has compiled two new gifts for fans: a special edition of the album and a new DVD to boot. FutureSex/LoveSounds Deluxe Edition, due November 27, will feature his “Until the End of Time” duet with Beyoncé and other to-be-named bonus tracks featuring big-name artists. The reissue will also house a bonus DVD with unreleased concert footage, making-of clips, director commentaries and more. The double-DVD FutureSex/LoveShow Live From Madison Square Garden, on the other hand, will drop a week earlier — and only be available at Best Buy. Expect to see the August 15 concert in full on the disc, as well as before and after footage, song-by-song commentary from JT, backstage clips, interviews and more.

Rapper, Nas has just announced the very controversial title of his next album: He said it will be called N*gga, yes you read it right “N*gga” and the album is going released in December. A source close to the project confirmed the name on Monday. I don’t know how you all feel about this, but I really don’t like this title at all! Thoughts?

29 year old Foxy Brown is currently serving time for violating probation and while dining on mystery meat, she’s just figured out a way for her fans to show their love. Visit freeFoxyBrown.com and click on the “Write Foxy” link for her cell block address to send your memoirs. On the site you can also ask her questions and I suppose she’ll answer you, straight from cell block 38! It’s nice to see high profile convicts can at least check their G-Mail accounts while they do their time.

In the midst of another drama-filled week in Brit-Brit’s personal life, she receives some amazing professional news as “Gimme More” opens at No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot Digital Songs with 179,000 downloads and soars 68-3 on the Billboard Hot 100. Both charts will be posted tomorrow (Oct. 4) on Billboard.com. I guess her fans are truly saying gimme more!

In other Britney news, The Sun is reporting that her Aunt Chanda McGovern has spoken out admitting that her family fear they will “turn on the TV and find out she is dead”.

She went on to say:

“We are very worried that things are going to spiral out of control. Instead of her turning to her family she is going to turn to the friends she has been hanging with — and the partying and drugs. And whether it be intentionally or accidental, there may be a drugs overdose. We are worried about suicidal tendencies in her. Everything is spiralling down and she has not got a backbone — a family member to help her.”

I totally agree, that’s my fear as well!
