Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner are a glamorous couple

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner drove their $100,000 Tesla Model S to get 2 dozen donuts from Krispy Kreme in Santa Monica today, and braved the rain to do it, so I assume they were stoned off their ass. That’s the only time 24 donuts from Krispy Kreme sounds like a good idea.

Katy Perry And Russell Brand Officially Divorced

Superstar couple met at MTV VMAs and were married for 14 months.
By Jocelyn Vena

Almost two years after <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/perry_katy/artist.jhtml">Katy Perry</a> and Russell Brand <a href="http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1650689/katy-perry-russell-brand-get-married-india.jhtml">tied the knot in India</a>, the ex-couple are now divorced. <a href="/news/articles/1676632/katy-perry-divorce-russell-brand-experts.jhtml">Brand filed for divorce</a> from the pop star in December, and it was finalized on Monday (July 16).According to <a href="http://www.eonline.com/news/330405/dunzo-katy-perry-and-russell-brand-now-officially-single" target="_blank">E! News</a> although Perry and Brand reached their divorce agreement back in February, by California law, they had to wait six months for the union to be officially dissolved. Brand's filing, which cited irreconcilable differences, came just 14 months after their lavish ceremony in front of family and friends. The exes famously hooked up after flirting at <a href="http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1676630/russell-brand-katy-perry-divorce.jhtml">the 2009 MTV VMAs</a>.<div class="player-placeholder right" title="Katy Perry Wants To Be An Example To Her Fans" id="vid:811883" width="415" height="255"></div>The two have addressed their split several times since first announcing their divorce. <a href="/news/articles/1687341/russell-brand-katy-perry-divorce.jhtml">Brand spoke about</a> it in a few interviews, including a sit-down with ITV1's "Lorraine" show, where he said that the marriage "did work out in a way." He added that "you just have to have acceptance of things. She is a person that I love, but now this is a new time."The comedian also opened up to Ellen DeGeneres on her talk show about his famous ex. "I still love her as a human being," he said. "But sometimes when you're in a relationship, I suppose it doesn't work out, does it? But that doesn't mean I regret it or anything. I was very happy to be married with her. She's such a beautiful human being and I just have only love and positivity for her."You can't absolutely make everything the way you want it to be in life," he continued. "Sometimes things are just different and then you have to just move with that and try and remain in contact with what is beautiful about yourself and with each other with any situation."Meanwhile, Perry addressed the split in her 3-D film, <a href="/news/articles/1689104/katy-perry-part-of-me-divorce.jhtml">"Katy Perry: Part of Me,"</a> which hit theaters earlier this month. She explained to MTV News why she made sure her divorce made the film's final cut."It's not about the problem; it's about how you solve it," Perry said. "And if I can be an example showing people that they don't have to lay down and die because they've been thrown a curveball, then that's great. If I can help someone else out because they feel like the only loner in the world or the only person that is going through the situation and they see me and they're inspired to keep moving forward, then I've done my job."<div class="player-placeholder right" title="Katy Perry Doesn't 'Want To Hide' From Divorce" id="vid:794356" width="415" height="255"></div>

Eminem And Slaughterhouse Toast The Good Life In 'My Life' Video

Slaughterhouse link with Cee Lo and Em for their new video, and boy is it rich.
By Rob Markman

Don't you just hate when rappers flaunt their riches in the face of the less fortunate? Well that's just what <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/eminem/artist.jhtml">Eminem</a> and <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/slaughterhouse__2_/artist.jhtml">Slaughterhouse</a> do in the <a href="/news/articles/1684953/slaughterhouse-cee-lo-my-life-video.jhtml">quartet's new "My Life" video</a>, except they make it all look really cool.The Syndrome-directed <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=iB9nFiJChDo" target="_blank">video</a>, which dropped Wednesday (June 20), starts off with a rather lengthy skit featuring the super-rich Eminem thumbing his nose at the poor and lowly by skeet-shooting his platinum plaques, showing off his fleet of 300 Chrysler 300s and playing whack-a-mole with real-life baby seals. It's all part of a Robin Leach-inspired opening skit called "Rappers Are Richer Than You," and in the end, Slim Shady bathes in the tears of struggling MCs and gets fed grapes by his pet tyrannosaurus rex.<div class="player-placeholder right" title="'Slaughterhouse' Describe New Video For 'My Life' With Cee Lo" id="vid:767983" width="415" height="255"></div>It all sounds pretty farfetched, but if quality rap bars directly translated into dollars, then Royce Da 5'9", Joell Ortiz, Joe Budden and Crooked I would be the wealthiest MCs in the game. In the video, the fearsome foursome, along with Cee Lo Green on the hook, detail their rise from starving artists to being one of hip-hop's most celebrated acts.Long Beach, California, lyrical assassin Crooked I sets things off, turning his broken-down lemon into a convertible Ferrari thanks to some choice visual effects. Crook takes a joy ride as he ponders, "How does it feel to count dollar bills that I found off skills?" in the middle of his verse.Ortiz sits on a housing-project bench reflecting on his early days as a drug dealer getting chased by the police. He goes from scaling a barbwire fence to a beach where he sips drinks with tiny umbrellas in the company of two vixens.Budden depicts a similar come-up, starting off taking mug shots and finishing his verse posing for the paparazzi. Still, Joey proves that his recent wins haven't just brought him riches; they've also helped bring him closer to his estranged son Trey, whom he has rapped about for so many years. "What a success story, the film plays, it gets less gory/ My son didn't know who his pops was for years, now it's less Maury."Royce caps things off, rapping about putting on for his city and earning enough so his dad could retire from his job as a U.S. postal worker. The fact is, fans have never seen Slaughterhouse smile so much, but there is no hate here: After all they've been through, Joey, Joell, Royce and Crook deserve a taste of the good life.What do you think of Slaughterhouse's "My LIfe" video? Let us know in the comments!

Miley Cyrus To Play 'Two And A Half Men' Love Interest?

Former Disney star rumored to play a 'sexy' new catch for Jake Harper.
By Jocelyn Vena

"Two and a Half Men" might be adding some girl power: <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/cyrus__miley/artist.jhtml">Miley Cyrus</a> is rumored to appear on the show next season.According to a source, the actress/singer will play the love interest of the show's "half man," Jake Harper (Angus T. Jones). <a href="http://www.eonline.com/news/337331/two-and-a-half-men-s-new-woman-miley-cyrus-to-guest-star-on-hit-comedy" target="_blank">E! News</a> reports that she will appear in several episodes as a new girl who catches Jake's eye.While reps for both the show and the actress have yet to respond to MTV News' requests for comment, the source said Miley's character will be "sexy" and the part will be "rife with comedy." Her part on the hit CBS show will welcome the "Hannah Montana" star back to the small screen after she <a href="/news/articles/1656023/miley-cyrus-post-hannah-montana-whats-next.jhtml">hung up her "Hannah Montana" wig back in January 2011</a>."Two and a Half Men" is just the latest news for Cyrus. In addition to her work in the big-screen FBI-themed comedy <a href="http://hollywoodcrush.mtv.com/2011/10/13/miley-cyrus-so-undercover-joshua-bowman/"> "So Undercover,"</a> set for release later this year, she has also been busy planning her <a href="/news/articles/1686727/miley-cyrus-liam-hemsworth-engaged-timeline.jhtml">wedding to fellow star Liam Hemsworth</a> and working on a <a href="/news/articles/1686813/miley-cyrus-sexy-album-liam-hemsworth.jhtml">new album</a>.Earlier this summer, Cyrus began work on her next batch of music, which will reportedly show her growth not only musically, but also as a person. Working with the likes of Pharrell Williams and Hit-Boy, an insider said she is "having fun making music for the first time in her career. ... We are watching a young girl turn into a young woman."Miley is also making headlines for her new 'do: She chopped off her hair over the weekend and tweeted a photo of the <a href="http://hollywoodcrush.mtv.com/2012/08/13/miley-cyrus-haircut/">cropped, platinum-blond look</a>. Of the new hairstyle, she wrote, "Never felt more me in my whole life."

'Yeah, of course he'll be involved,' Em says of his frequent collaborator Dre in radio interview.
By Carter Maness

Hip-hop heavyweight <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/eminem/artist.jhtml">Eminem</a> has revealed he's currently back in the lab, knee-deep in crafting his upcoming eighth studio album. Speaking with DJ Whoo Kid on his Shade 45 radio show, Em gave an update on the progress of his next solo effort.Saying he was still in the early stages of recording and the material has yet to take shape, the iconic rapper acknowledged he will go to his longtime collaborator <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/dr_dre/artist.jhtml">Dr. Dre</a> at some point in the process."Yeah, of course he'll be involved," he said. "I usually get going and kind of start going a certain direction and just record what I'm feeling. Then I'll go see Dre and fill in some of those pieces."<div class="player-placeholder right" title="Adam Yauch: Remembering A Beastie Boy" id="id:1684534" width="415" height="255"></div>With no release date set, August looks to be a busy month for Em and his Shady Records enterprise.

"They did it for fun," Whitford said during an appearance on the syndicated show "Todd N Tyler Radio Empire." "I actually think Jimmy wanted Steven to come over and play a little bit because I think he was trying to light a fire under Robert."Rumors of a Zeppelin reunion tour have abounded since the iconic band played <a href="/news/articles/1576186/led-zeppelin-give-fans-whole-lotta-love-at-reunion-show.jhtml">a single reunion set</a> last year at London's O2 Arena. <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/twisted_sister/artist.jhtml">Twisted Sister</a>Twisted Sister frontman Dee Snider added fuel to the fire last month when he revealed that the group was thinking of touring, with or without Plant.<a href="http://newsroom.mtv.com/2008/10/13/another-led-zeppelin-rumor-almost-debunked/">According to Snider</a>, the rest of the band told Plant, " 'We're all rehearsed, we're ready to go.

"They're going to hope that Robert, at the last minute, will go, 'OK,' and step in."In a recent interview, Jones told BBC Radio Devon that a new singer was being sought to take over for Plant.

It's sounding great, and we want to get on and get out there."But Jones insists that he, Page and Bonham aren't interested in finding a Plant clone. "It's got to be right," he said. "There's no point in just finding another Robert. You could get that out of a tribute band, but we don't want to be our own tribute band. There would be a record and a tour, but everyone has to be onboard."Of course, even if Zeppelin were to approach him, Cornell might be too busy to take over vocals for the band. His upcoming <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/timbaland/artist.jhtml">Timbaland</a>Timbaland-produced solo LP, <a href="/news/articles/1596730/chris-cornell-debuts-timbaland-produced-track-on-tv-show.jhtml">Scream,</a> will be released within the next few months. Cornell told MTV News last month that some of his fans might consider Scream something of a departure, but he doesn't see it that way."It makes me happy that there's this perception that I have a group of fans that I'm now sort of throwing a curve at and what their reaction will be," he said. "But I've been in this situation so many times already. When I put out [1999's] Euphoria Morning, my main goal was to create an album that sounded like nothing I'd done in Soundgarden, and I did that. I also had that with Temple of the Dog, where I showed up with songs that weren't necessarily riff-based. And then, of course, the pairing of me and members of <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/rage_against_the_machine/artist.jhtml">Rage Against the Machine</a>Rage Against the Machine had everyone sort of speculating about what that would sound like."It feels like I've done this so many times that when it's presented to me as being a departure, I feel that's a misconception," he added. "I feel like that's my theme at this point."

The PhilmGuy?s DVD Review: Men in Black 3 starring Will Smith, Josh Brolin and Tommy Lee Jones

Photo credit:

Sony Pictures Home Entertainment

Lawless — The Prohibition-era thriller, based on real lives of the moonshine-running Bondurant clan, casts Shia LaBeouf, Tom Hardy and Jason Clarke as brothers who try to throw their weight around, facing off with a corrupt lawman (Guy Pearce). Gary Oldman burns up the screen as a controlling thug, Jessica Chastain is a dancer who gets mixed up with the brothers, and Mia Wasikowska checks in as a preacher's daughter whom LaBeouf's character is sweet on. An engaging thriller from wire to wire, the movie is a step in the right direction for LaBeouf, who takes a break from silly action movies to show some range. The Blu-ray/DVD/digital copy combo includes filmmaker commentary, a featurette on the real-life Bondurants and deleted scenes.

Men in Black 3 — Due out Friday, this unasked for sequel re-teams Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones as wise-cracking, alien-battling secret agent partners. As agent J, Smith time-travels back to 1969 to prevent Agent K (played by Jones in the present, and Josh Brolin back in the day) from being assassinated. Smith had been out of the game for several years, but he re-asserts his star power with authority, maintaining solid chemistry with both Brolin and Jones. The special effects are more silly than convincing, but they work for an action comedy. The high-end set includes 3D and 2D Blu-ray versions of the movie, as well as the DVD and digital copies. Extras peek into the effects, a gag reel and loads of making-of featurettes that look at the 1969 sets and break down some of the more memorable scenes.

ParaNorman — In one of the better animated movies released this year, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Anna Kendrick, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Leslie Mann, John Goodman and Casey Affleck lend their voices to a gothic tale about a sad boy with a The Sixth Sense-like ability to speak to ghosts. He comes of age after he discovers a secret behind a witch's curse and rounds up some kids to save the town. Although the story lacks imagination, the visuals and atmosphere are refreshingly morbid, reminiscent of Coraline. The Blu-ray/DVD/digital copy combo includes filmmaker commentary, as well as several featurettes that take you through the animation process.

Sparkle — Due out Friday, the drama stars Jordin Sparks in a remake of a 1976 film about a Supremes-like group who rise to fame in the 1960s. In her final role before her untimely passing, Whitney Houston plays a mother who disapproves of her daughter's choice of career. The melodrama is paint-by-numbers, but Sparks shines in her many show-stopping musical numbers. CeeLo Green and Derek Luke make solid impressions in supporting roles. The Blu-ray/digital copy combo includes filmmaker commentary, a tribute to Houston and a making-of featurette.

Transformers Prime: Season 2 — The re-imagining of the 1980s-spawned vehicle-robot warriors saga is sharper, more coherent and just flat-out better than any other take on the material, including any of the Michael Bay films. In season two, the Autobots and Decepticons stumble onto some previously unknown facts about the destroyed planet they used to share, learning it might be possible to bring it back to life. The set includes all 26 episodes, a San Diego Comic-Con panel, as well as interviews with the show's creative staff.

Britney Spears 'X Factor' Rumors Are 'Nonsense,' Simon Cowell Says

'She's got her confidence up. Once people give her a chance, I think people are really going to get her,' Cowell says of new judge.
By John Mitchell

Simon Cowell is clearly feeling better — after missing <a href="/news/articles/1687133/x-factor-judges-performances-fighting.jhtml">"The X Factor" auditions in Kansas City, Missouri,</a> due to a bout of bronchitis — and he's talking <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/spears_britney/artist.jhtml">Britney Spears</a>.Cameramen from <a href="http://www.x17online.com/celebrities/simon_cowell/simon_cowell_says_britney_spears_not_unstable_claims_he_is_video_061412.php" target="_blank">X17</a> caught up with Cowell while he was riding in his town car in Beverly Hills, and they found the oft-testy reality-show judge and music executive to be in a particularly good mood. Cowell addressed a variety of tabloid rumors regarding Spears — namely that she's had some issues on set and that she's shaping up to be one of the tougher judges.<div class="player-placeholder right" title="Britney Spears Explains Why She Wanted To Be A Part Of 'X Factor'" id="vid:769620" width="415" height="255"></div>When a cameraman asked whether "Britney's too unstable" to judge "X Factor," Cowell responded, "No, she's not unstable. I'm the one who's unstable! She's working out great. All these reports that we've fallen out are nonsense. She's doing a great job."Cowell's car then pulls away, but again comes to a stop in traffic, allowing the paparazzi to continue his questioning. Asked whether Spears was his favorite judge, Cowell said, "There's only two girls," referring to Demi Lovato, and went on to jokingly admit that he is his own favorite of all time. "Yeah, I'd say Simon Cowell is a great guy," he quipped. "Very good looking."Pressed further about Spears, Cowell offered more praise for the pop singer. "Like I said, she's been amazing. She's really taking time to learn how to do this," he continued. "She's got her confidence up. Once people give her a chance, I think people are really going to get her. It will be a big surprise. She's a tough judge."As tough as the famously direct Cowell?

Selena Gomez Says She's 'Lucky' To Have Justin Bieber

'I don't take anything in my personal life too seriously,' she tells Teen Vogue.
By James Dinh

Contrary to the breakup rumors that flooded the Internet earlier this month, Selena Gomez is perfectly happy with <a href="/news/articles/1690653/justin-bieber-writes-song-selena-gomez.jhtml">pop-star boyfriend Justin Bieber</a>.He's just one of a few topics the <a href="http://www.mtv.com/ontv/vma/2012/">VMA</a> nominee chatted about with <a href="http://www.teenvogue.com/industry/coverlook/coverlook-september-2012/selena-gomez-teen-vogue-photos" target="_blank">Teen Vogue</a> for a September cover story. Gomez also discussed her aspirations to take acting to a whole new level and her dreams to make music with another Justin.Describing her relationship with Bieber as "really fun," Gomez told the mag she feels "lucky" to have the young singer by her side. "I'm 20. I don't take anything in my personal life too seriously," she says. "I have great friends and a solid group of people I love. I feel like everything else will come organically."Unlike <a href="/news/articles/1686645/miley-cyrus-liam-hemsworth-engaged.jhtml">fellow Disney alum Miley Cyrus</a>, the pint-size pop star isn't interested in walking down the aisle anytime soon, saying, "Marriage and all that other stuff I think will happen once I feel accomplished in every other aspect of my life."But if there's one thing Gomez is pushing for it's her long-term goal to shake off her predictable good-girl reputation. One major step in making her Mickey Mouse days a distant memory is her <a href="/news/articles/1684137/selena-gomez-spring-breakers.jhtml">girls-gone-wild adventure flick "Spring Breakers,"</a> which hits theaters in early 2013. She tells the magazine that after she read the script for the Harmony Korine-directed film, she took a plane to the director's home in Nashville to convince him that she would "work really hard."And while she describes her role in 2011's "Monte Carlo" as "a good step for me at the time," Gomez said she would never want to do something like that again. "I don't necessarily feel accomplished. I want to create a whole different persona when it comes to acting," she explained.Gomez is also planning to take her music to the next level too, and there's one star she's dying to hit the studio with. "I don't think he ever would — I don't even think he's doing music anymore — is Justin Timberlake," she said, gushing, "Just 'cause I love his music sooo much."The <a href="http://www.mtv.com/ontv/vma/2012/">2012 MTV Video Music Awards</a> will air live from Staples Center in Los Angeles on Thursday, September 6, at 8 p.m. ET/PT. Head to <a href="http://www.mtv.com/ontv/vma/2012/">VMA.MTV.com</a> now through August 24 to vote for your favorites, or text BNA to 22444 to vote for Best New Artist all the way through the show!

lets all pretend X-Men 3 never happened

Brett Ratner is such a shitty director that when he was done with ?X-Men: The Last Stand?, the franchise had to literally go back in time before it existed and start over. Which is how we got ‘X-Men: First Class’ from the terrific Matthew Vaughn.
Now the sequel to that is back with [...]

Benzino Apologizes To Eminem, Says 'I Was Wrong'

'At the end of the day, Em is a great lyricist and he should be able to express himself in hip-hop as anybody should,' the MC said of 2002 rap beef.
By Rob Markman, with reporting by Sway Calloway

Throughout his career <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/eminem/artist.jhtml">Eminem</a> has been perhaps the most feared MC on the mic, but that didn't stop <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/benzino/artist.jhtml">Benzino</a> from going toe-to-toe with Slim Shady in a feud that got very personal. In 2002, Benzino labeled Em "the rap Hilter" on his dis track <a href="/news/articles/1459003/benzino-calls-eminem-rap-hitler.jhtml">"Die Another Day,"</a> but if the rapper/magazine publisher had his way, he would've done things differently."I can say it now, I was wrong for it. Because at the end of the day, Em is a great lyricist and he should be able to express himself in hip-hop as anybody should," Benzino said on Wednesday when he appeared on "RapFix Live."<div class="player-placeholder right" title="Benzino Was 'Wrong' For Beefing With Eminem" id="vid:824012.id:1691390" width="415" height="255"></div>ZNO, who once ran The Source magazine with his business partner, Dave Mays, launched an all-out attack on Slim Shady. Em himself fired back with multiple well-orchestrated dis tracks like "The Sauce" and "Nail in the Coffin." Benzino says he's a different man. "You really can't accomplish nothing, as far as nowadays times, with drama," he said. "All drama does is just slow you down, it just hampers things. I don't have no beef with nobody... The situation with me and Eminem, if I could've done it over, I would've."The Boston MC, who now stars in VH1's hit reality show "Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta," believes that it was in upbringing in the rough and tumble Beantown which caused him to lash out at Em. Race definitely played an issue, but now Benzino credits the Detroit mega star with bringing different cultures together."Em's still doing his thing and he's still a great influence on hip-hop," he said. "Hip-hop has bridged the cultures, white, black, Latino, Asian, it's for everybody.""I probably was an angry person back then," he continued to explain. "If I offended anybody with that, I apologize to hip-hop for that."What do you think of Benzino's apology to hip-hop? Let us know in the comments!<div class="player-placeholder right" title="Benzino Wears His Heart On His Sleeve On 'Love & Hip Hop'" id="vid:824014.id:1691390" width="415" height="255"></div>

Beyonce To Direct And Star In Feature Documentary?

Doc will reportedly take fans inside the superstar's life and career with blend of concert footage and confessional interviews.
By John Mitchell

<a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/knowles_beyonce/artist.jhtml/">Beyoncé</a> is one of the most thrilling multi-hyphenate superstars in the game, and now she's looking to pad her already-stacked résumé with another title: director. The pop diva is reportedly shopping a documentary feature about her life and career that she will star in, direct and produce.<div class="player-placeholder right" title="Beyoncé - "Love on Top"" isvevo="true" isrc="USSM21101548" id="vid:702484" width="415" height="255"></div>The <a href="http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/movies/moviesnow/la-et-mn-beyonce-to-direct-star-in-a-documentary-20120801,0,1760231.story" target="_blank">Los Angeles Times</a> reports that Beyoncé's agents at ICM are looking for distribution for a documentary focusing on her life and career that would blend performance footage with confessional interviews. A source close to the film, who was not authorized to talk about it publicly, revealed that 20 minutes of footage has been shown to prospective distributors.Beyoncé previously starred in, but did not direct, <a href="http://www.mtv.com/videos/beyonce-year-of-4/1666691/playlist.jhtml">"Beyoncé: Year of 4,"</a> a reflective MTV documentary that chronicled the star's return to the studio to make her hit 2011 album 4 after taking a year off. "My life was award shows and tour buses and hotels, and it kind of goes by so fast. I couldn't even hear it anymore," <a href="/news/articles/1666569/beyonce-year-of-4.jhtml">she says</a> in the film. "It was very risky for me to set out on my own. Sometimes we don't reach for the stars, sometimes we are satisfied with what people tell us we're supposed to be satisfied with, and I'm just not going for it."Much has happened in the year-plus since "Year of 4" was produced for the star to explore in a feature-length film. Behind the scenes, she took control of her career, <a href="/news/articles/1660837/beyonce-mathew-knowles.jhtml">parting ways professionally</a> with her longtime manager, father Mathew Knowles, in March 2011. A few months later, in June, she released her hit album 4.In August 2011, Beyoncé revealed at the MTV Video Music Awards that she was <a href="/news/articles/1669849/beyonce-pregnant-vmas.jhtml">expecting her first child</a> with husband Jay-Z. The couple <a href="/news/articles/1676906/beyonce-jay-z-baby-born-ivy-blue.jhtml">welcomed a daughter</a>, Blue Ivy Carter, in January. She made her <a href="/news/articles/1685932/beyonce-michelle-obama-atlantic-city.jhtml">return to the stage</a> in May with a series of concerts at the Revel resort in Atlantic City, and rumors abound that she is <a href="http://rapfix.mtv.com/2012/02/14/beyonce-prepping-two-new-albums/">hard at work on new material</a>. In February, songwriter-producer and OneRepublic frontman Ryan Tedder revealed, "The conversations about her next album literally just started and there [are] two projects happening."Tedder previously produced the 4 track "I Was Here" and co-wrote and produced the I Am ... Sasha Fierce global smash "Halo."Beyoncé recently received three nominations for the <a href="/news/articles/1690827/video-music-awards-nominees-list-2012.jhtml">2012 MTV Video Music Awards</a>, including <a href="/news/articles/1690891/2012-video-music-awards-best-female-video.jhtml">Best Female Video</a> for "Love on Top."
