GASP!

New Pussycat Dolls news via Nicole's twitter: there will be a third PCD album but she writes"the third album will be the last PCD album with the current members. However we haven't started it yet, so don't worry!" Nicole speculates a 2011 release. She also mentions that mah fave doll, Jessica Sutta, will be getting more vocal parts on the third album.

Nicole also confirms that Hush Hush will be the final single from Doll Domination and the Dolls are currently discussing plans for the video. Also, we can expect a PCD workout video very soon. Woohoo.

So is Nicole planning a second attempt at a solo career? Is Melody?

I Know I'm Late ...

But I am loving Lady GaGa! I finally bought her debut album, The Fame and it is so refreshing. I've beaten Kylie's X to a pulp and I've been in need of some delicious electropop (BritBrit's Circus was a nice appetizer). Anyways, GaGa's album has a very strong start and just keeps going. I was familiar with a handful of the songs but the first to really catch my attention was Paparazzi—I absolutely love it! It will serve as the UK's third single from GaGa while she releases another great track, LoveGame, in the US. Here are some shots from the set of the Paparazzi video...

I think what I love most about Lady GaGa is that she is bringing pop back into the mainstream. We've been so overloaded—and still are—with hip hop and rap that radiowaves are in need of some change. Now that we have GaGa and BritBrit getting airplay it seems about time that Girls Aloud get in on the action! No? Well, I can dream.

The Gift That Keeps on Giving

Of course I'm talking about Heidi Montag. After leaking four potential album tracks, Montag shared her new song Black Out with the populous. In my opinion it's one of her few respectable tracks— perhaps because it comes from her recent writing sessions with Cathy Dennis, pop songwriter extraordinaire. Dennis has helped pen everything from the Spice Girls' Wannabe to Kylie's Can't Get You Out of My Head to Britney's Toxic. It's still unknown as to when Montag's album will be released. So far only four tracks have been confirmed for her debut, Look How I'm Doing, Your Love Found Me, Turn Ya Head (also written by Dennis), and now Black Out.

[Even More] New Music from Heidi

Heidi Montag hit us with two new tracks in one day! Both could appear on her album which is rumored to have a summer release. Look How I'm Doin' is the perfect Montag club thumping track similar to her previous songs Body Language and One More Drink. Unfortunately a version hasn't leaked that doesn't have the On-Air with Ryan Seacrest tags but this shall suffice. The second track, You Found Me, is a different style for Montag ... one I don't like. It's really late-90s sugar pop with a showtune twist. It just doesn't work for me.

UPDATE: Two more new tracks from Heidi were released yesterday as well as the untagged version of Look How I'm Doin' which I haven't been able to get out of my head all day. I absolutely love it! The new songs, Turn Ya Head and More is More are decent dance tracks . She's a little too shouty on More is More and I think Turn Ya Head will be a grower. Check them out below.
