Alicia Keys takes on interracial dating in the past and present in the video for “Un-thinkable (I’m Ready),” the third single from The Element of Freedom. The powerful clip, which premieres May 12 on VEVO, was directed by Jake Nava and co-stars actor Chad Michael Murray as Alicia’s love interest.

“Alicia is a true artist and I was very pleased that she was brave enough to go with this unusual concept. Together I believe we have done something new and important,” said Nava. “I hope people are entertained by this video, but that it also makes them think. Alicia was a joy to work with. I love her music and aimed to enhance her visual impact in the marketplace.”

Mariah Carey is taking you to the candy shop this summer. The “eternally 12” diva is bottling a sticky-and-sweet scent that will have lambs licking their chops.


Elizabeth Arden has announced Lollipop Bling as the name of Mariah’s latest fragrance, which is scheduled to hit stores in June, according to Reuters. The singer’s previous scents include M by Mariah Carey, Forever Mariah Carey, and Mariah Carey’s Luscious Pink. More are reportedly due this holiday season.

Mariah has a song on her latest album Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel called “Candy Bling,” and she received a diamond-studded Ring Pop from husband Nick Cannon for the couple’s second wedding anniversary.

A new perfume isn’t the only thing on Mimi’s plate. She has been in the studio working with Jermaine Dupri on a new studio album, as well as a collection of Christmas songs.

When Oprah Winfrey called all Twilight fans in April to submit stories about how the hit supernatural series changed their lives, Maria Mele knew she had to e-mail the daytime talk show host.

Unfortunately, the super fan didn't get the response she hoped for – tickets to attend the taping of The Oprah Winfrey Show where Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner and Dakota Fanning would all be. So, she settled for being interviewed by Winfrey via Skype.

Turns out, she got something even better than a seat inside Harpo Studios: Robert Pattinson at her doorstep.

"[My family and I] all lost it," Mele tells PEOPLE about the Tuesday night surprise visit from the British actor, which was taped for The Oprah Winfrey Show's May 13 episode. "[We were] screaming like a bunch of maniacs. We were all amazed that he was in our house."

Just when Mele thought they were going to talk to Winfrey via webcam, Pattinson walked into her house, prompting her daughter Rosanna to start crying, while her son, Giuseppe, "was frozen."

So how did Mele, a mom from Naperville, Ill., catch Winfrey's attention from the thousands of other super fans? She sent a photo of her family, which bears a striking resemblance to the film's Cullen clan.

"They were so amazed how my son Guiseppe looked so much like Edward," says Mele.

The star, 23, stayed for about 10 minutes and "was great," Mele says, "so nice. Funny. And so tall! He was beautifully flawless and a great sport."

"Robert was genuinely happy to fulfill our dream," she says. "I still can't believe it."

As an added bonus, Mele and her family did, in fact, get to go to the taping after all – with reserved seats.

"It's something we will never forget," says the Twi-Hard mom. "I have to say although Oprah and Robert were great, hearing my kids say 'thanks for making this happen' [was] absolutely priceless."

Ok, we've heard this one so many times, but maybe now there's some actual substance to the romance rumors about Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart. Supposedly, supposedly, they confirmed their relationship to Oprah under conditions of anonymity, but, of course, the news leaked. Hm. We're taking this one nice and slow, but it seems more legit than the typical rumors about these Twilight co-stars.

The Twilight crew. (Bauer Griffin)According to E! Online , the Twilight cast was filming their Oprah segment (airing May 13) and the hostess with the mostest pulled Rob and Kristen over and had a chat with them about the questions she'd be asking. Of course, you can't avoid the dating questions, so Oprah allegedly struck a deal with the rumored love birds: confirm if you're an item to me, and I won't pester you about it on the show.

Well, word has it that they then went ahead and fessed up. "Both Rob and Kristen's people and Summit then confirmed ahead of time [Rob and Kristen] are together and are dating. One hundred percent," said a source. 

Rumored couple Avril Lavigne and Brody Jenner recently got their second set of matching tattoos, after already inking identical lightning bolts on their skin while in Las Vegas last month. The two had the word "f**k" etched onto their ribs at Mark Mahoney's Shamrock Social Club tattoo parlor in Hollywood.

A source told RadarOnline.com: "They were laughing and said they had not slept in two days. They were completely, utterly out of it. Then nobody could believe it when they said they wanted the word f**k written on their ribs.

Avril and her ex-husband Deryck (Pacific Coast News)"Avril didn't even care that the only person available to ink her in the shop was an apprentice. She just said, 'I don't care do it.'

"Neither of them seemed to stop and think about what they were doing, it was just one big laugh."

Although the couple, who reportedly began dating in February, opted to have their new tattoos in the same place this time, their previous set of inkings were on different body parts.

The "Girlfriend" singer had her electric symbol etched onto her forearm, while the reality TV star opted for a design behind his ear.

Avril's new romance reportedly has the blessing of her former husband, rocker Deryck Whibley, whom she split from last October. A source said recently: "Avril and Deryck are just friends now. He thinks Brody is a good guy and that it's great the two of them are doing well."

Swift is bound to be a popular spokesmodel.Chances are there are quite a few CoverGirl execs patting themselves on the back for signing their latest spokesmodel, country phenom Taylor Swift.

The biggest-selling musician of the past year has inked a huge deal with the cosmetics giant, WWD reports. Swift, 20, will star in television, print, and in-store advertisements, and is expected to be the face of an upcoming product line. Vince Hudson, the brand's general manager, said of the announcement, "Taylor is beautful and inspirational with her effortless-chic style, making her the perfect person to represent a new, luxurious collection of products debuting on CoverGirl next year."

Swift has described herself as a "huge makeup junkie," admitting that she prefers "anything sparkly or bright-colored or shiny." We're sure many of her millions of fans can relate.

Britney Spears, fashion collaborator.It was only a matter of time: Britney Spears has designed a limited edition collection for Candie's. She's served as the company spokesmodel for over a year, and with many of her colleagues throwing their hats into the celebrity design ring, it was only appropriate.

Britney announced her upcoming project on her official Twitter page, writing "At my photo shoot for the limited edition collection I designed for Candie's! I think you guys will love it!!!"

According to the Candie's website, Britney's collection will be available exclusively at Kohl's starting July 1. What do you anticipate seeing from Brit Brit?

Alicia Keys doesn't rely on studio trickery to make her voice sound different, and in fact, she's ready to scrap any tracks she can't get the vocals right on.

Keys keeps her music real (Getty)She said: “I never use Auto-Tune, or anything like that. I won’t have that software in my life. I don’t mind others using it. But if I can’t sing on my own, then I’m not going to record it.”

Alicia is always writing new songs and even uses her phone to make notes when she feels creative.

She added to Q magazine: “I made some notes on my cell phone a couple of days ago. I’ve got an old idea on there called ‘Holy Love.’ But the new one is just a title -- ‘The Day After The Night Before.’ It’s going to be about love and romance, but it could be about someone waking up and deciding they don’t like the curtains in their bedroom.”

If Gwyneth Paltrow and her Iron Man 2 costar Scarlett Johansson are feuding as some online reports suggest, it's news to the blonde star.

"People tell me, 'Oh you had a fight,' " Paltow tells PEOPLE at a party for Chopard's 150th anniversary at the Frick Collection in New York. "They're pitting you against each other and I just think, 'Why do we need to make a problem between women?' "

"I think that's the part that's lame," she says.

In fact, Paltrow, 37, says she found a kindred spirit in her 25-year-old costar.

"I adore Scarlett. I loved having her on set," the actress says. "She is really funny. She swears a lot. She has a dirty sense of humor. She loves to cook. She's like a girl after my own heart."

Paltrow, who got into top-notch shape for Iron Man 2 , which arrives in theaters May 7, slightly fell off the exercise wagon in order to get into character for another film. Still, she maintains that an active lifestyle is her priority. "I think a healthy lifestyle is really important," Paltrow says. "We're meant to be active and strong. We're not meant to be sedentary creatures who kind of sit at a desk all day."

Continues the actress: "It's so important to walk home or just take a bike ride because it's how you're connected to your body. It keeps all kinds of health problems at bay."

How does she keep in shape when not aggressively working out "I try to at least walk from point A to point B," says Paltrow, "or do some sit-ups before bed or anything to get the blood going."

Jodie Sweetin is going to be a mom again.

The actress – who has a 2-year-old daughter, Zoie, with ex-husband Cody Herpin – is expecting a baby with her boyfriend of one year, Morty Coyle. She’s due later this year.

"They’re happy," Sweetin’s rep Stella Alex tells DIDNTINVITEME, adding that the actress, who has struggled with addiction, "is in a good place."

Sweetin, 28, has certainly been Tweeting like a happy mom as of late: On April 16, she wrote, "I so enjoy my days of hanging around at home with [Zoie]. It’s the best!"

Meanwhile, her ex Herpin has lashed out about the news, telling The National Enquirer that he’s "disgusted" with his ex and questions her ability to maintain her sobriety.

Sweetin, says her rep, is "clean, clean, clean. She’s looking forward to moving on with her life and she’s just happy to be a mom."

Make no bones about it. Halle Berry didn't get dumped by Gabriel Aubry. Their split happened several months ago – and it was the actress who initiated it, according to a source.

"She kicked him out months ago because he wasn't able to pull his weight in the relationship and she wanted to move on," a source close to Berry and Aubry tells DIDNTINVITEME.

"They’re very amicable in healthy ways because of their child," adds the source referring to the couple's 2-year-old daughter Nahla. "Her main concern is for the health and happiness of her daughter."

As for the so-called "mystery guy" Berry was photographed holding hands with in New York City on Friday night, "they’re old friends,” says the source. "The photographers were chasing them so he just instinctively grabbed her hand."

Meanwhile, a rep for Berry confirms to DIDNTINVITEME that she and Aubry "have been split for some time, but remain friends and committed parents to their daughter."

On Friday, Aubry released a statement to Access Hollywood saying the couple are putting daughter Nahla's happiness first.

Seth Green is officially off the market: The actor married model/actress Clare Grant on Saturday, his rep confirms to DIDNTINVITEME.

Green and Grant tied the knot at a private vineyard in Northern California, according to a source.

Green is the executive producer and co-creator of Robot Chicken for which Grant also does voice-overs. The actor was an original cast member of Family Guy.

Grant, who attended the University of Memphis, appeared with Christina Ricci in Black Snake Moan and stars in the MTV series $5 Cover.

Tameka Foster and Usher (January 22, 2007 - Photo by Ethan Miller/Getty Images Entertainment)Maybe Usher felt compelled to respond to the rumours simply because it had reportedly riled up his ex-wife Tameka Foster, who ranted on Twitter that the singer was a “bitchass dude” among other things.

Denzel Washington  is tearing it up on the stage these days in his hit Broadway production ofFences. And, it's doing so well that there's buzz the play could make its move to London's West End, too.

Denzel Washington (Getty)Denzel, 55, said: “They want to take it to London. But can I go? I'd love to - but have you seen my bills? I would love to go, but is it possible? I just don't know. I'm not ruling it out, though.”

The play tells the story of African American man Troy Maxson, played by Denzel, and his wife Rose, portrayed by Viola Davis, who struggle with their life in 1950s Pittsburgh.
It was originally written by August Wilson in 1983 and went on to win the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1987.

Scott Rudin, co-producer of the current production, wants to bring the play and Denzel across the Atlantic, saying: “I'd do it like a shot.”

However, he acknowledges there are several hurdles to overcome. If a West End run does happen, the entire seven person cast will reprise their roles. Rose’s husband Julius Tennon insists his wife would be open to the idea of showcasing her talents in the UK capital. He said: “I think she'd love to do that.”

Both Rose and Denzel are tipped as contenders for Tony awards this summer.

Chris Brown had the honor of performing “The Star-Spangled Banner” before the Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Shane Mosley fight at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas on Saturday (May 1). “I was scared sh*tless .. to be honest,” the R&B star tweeted following the main event. Was he able to overcome his nerves? Find out below.

Nick Cannon added some more bling to his wife’s hand by giving her a custom-made Ring Pop as a gift for the couple’s second wedding anniversary. The hand-crafted candy replica, designed by Jason of Beverly Hills, was made of white gold, encrusted with white diamonds and pink sapphire. This gives new meaning to her song “Candy Bling.”

If that wasn’t sweet enough, Jermaine Dupri showed off MC’s one-of-a-kind iPad, covered in sparkling rhinestones. The customized gadget was given to her by Elizabeth Arden who manufactures her fragrances.

Just when you thought she was taking some time off, Beyoncé throws a wrench in her vacation plans. The worker B gets down and dirty as B.B.

Singer Bruno Mars may not have an album out just yet, but he surely has reason to celebrate after he helped displace Rihanna from her spot atop the Billboard Hot 100 last week. The 23-year-old Hawaii native, who sings the hook to “beautiful girls, all over the world,” on B.o.B’s infectious track “Nothin’ on You,” heard the news of the rapper’s jump to No. 1 while performing in his home state.


“I actually [was] forced to celebrate in Hawaii,” Bruno tells Rap-Up.com. “I booked a gig there. It was a perfect time being at home with my family while it was No. 1; that’s an amazing feeling.” While Mars was excited to relish the moment in front of his fans, he wasn’t able to tip his fedora hat to B.o.B, who was busy promoting the release of his debut album, B.o.B Presents: The Adventures of Bobby Ray. “This week is gonna be the first time I’ve seen B.o.B since it’s been No. 1 on the charts,” Bruno reveals. “He’s touring everywhere. He has to do ['Nothin' on You'] without me. For my shows, we wrote a little remix, a special live version where we perform a verse and we sing the hook.”

As for knocking Rihanna’s “Rude Boy” off its pedestal, Bruno, who is also part of the production camp The Smeezingtons, felt the accomplishment was well-deserved. “I was happy because we worked so hard,” he continues, “we felt like, ‘If this song doesn’t go, we’re in the wrong business,’ ’cause we never believed in a song so much.”

For years, The Smeezingtons—comprised of Bruno, Phil Lawrence, and Ari Levine—would create records featuring Bruno on the hook, only to have A&R reps replace his vocals with an artist of their choice. “Finally I’m singing the hook and they didn’t replace me with anybody else,” Bruno joyfully exclaims. “They kept me on the hook. When B.o.B put his verses in, it was such a special contrast song. [Rihanna] had her shine, now can we get ours, please?”

Bruno Mars’ EP, It’s Better If You Don’t Understand, is set for release on May 11. Listen to one of the four cuts, “Somewhere in Brooklyn,” below.

Christina Aguilera has been a bad, bad girl. The pop princess lets go of her inhibitions for the night and strips down in the provocative video for “Not Myself Tonight,” the first single from her new album Bionic, due June 8. XXXtina hooks up with the same sex, unleashes her inner pussycat, and gets sinful in church in the Hype Williams-directed clip. She’s still got that “Dirrty” degree, indeed.
