Michael Jackson - Bad 25 DVD Teaser
Spike Lee Finishing Michael Jackson Documentary
Movie focuses on the singer's 'Bad' album.
By Gil Kaufman
<P>Director Spike Lee is finishing work on an upcoming documentary about <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/jackson_michael/artist.jhtml">Michael Jackson's</a> landmark 1987 <I>Bad</I> album that will give fans a behind-the-scenes look at the <I>Thriller</I> follow-up that has sold more than 30 million copies worldwide.</P><P>Lee, who was friends with the late pop king and directed the official video for the posthumous single <a href="/news/articles/1623590/michael-jacksons-this-it-single-debuts-online.jhtml">"This Is It,"</a>

"We have footage in this documentary that no one's ever seen, stuff that Michael shot himself, behind-the-scenes stuff," Lee said. "We had complete access to the vaults of Michael Jackson. ...

Jessica Alba Drops in on the Doctor
Wisely taking care of her own health, Jessica Alba headed to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Beverly Hills on Monday (November 26).
The "Sin City" star wore a black dress, long black vest, black stockings, and gray boots as she headed inside.
Recently, the 31-year-old actress has been taking advantage of the busy holiday shopping season to promote supporting small businesses.
Last week she tweeted, "I'm going to #shopsmall in support of Small Business Saturday this weekend. RT and share where you're going to @ShopSmall #adv." Of course the savvy entrepreneur also took the opportunity to plug her own brand of natural and eco-friendly family products, The Honest Company.

Alicia Keys Talks Music and Babies
Getting ready to release her new studio album, Alicia Keys sat down with ABC's Cynthia McFadden on "Nightline" to discuss her music and her little man.
"Girl on Fire" is the hit title track and a song the 31-year-old singer feels she embodies well, as she told McFadden, "The song, you know, it came from a feeling. This feeling of, kind of finding my own space and my own place to be myself, my own full self. Love it or hate it, whatever the case, here I am and here's me. I'm more excited about this album than I've ever been for any record ever."
As for her 2-year-old son, Egypt Daoud Dean, Keys says he can be heard on the track "When It's All Over."
"It's so beautiful, because the chorus goes 'When they lay me down and put my soul to rest, when they ask me how I spent my life, at least I got to love you.' And that I feel about my husband, that I feel about son," Alicia said.
Asked if she and husband Kaseem Dean (otherwise known as hip-hop producer Swizz Beatz) plan on more children, the answer was upbeat.
"I would love to have some more, definitely one more for sure," Miss Keys said with a smile. "At least one more, but I have to finish this album, I have to finish this tour, I have to finish this stuff first because-- the juggle, is something."
"Girl on Fire" is scheduled to hit stores on November 26.

No hay más Led Zeppelin
By
<P>A pesar de lo dicho ayer, Peter Mensch, manager del guitarrista Jimmy Page, se retractó totalmente en eso que la banda buscaría un reemplazo al ultragenial Robert Plant para seguir rockeando y toureándola por el mundo tras su show de 2007 en el O2 Arena de Londres por el poder de la música más sexual de la historia. No habrá más Led Zeppelin, no hay planes de que lo haya.</P><P>Mensch comentó: "Led Zeppelin se acabó. Si no los vieron en el 2007, se los perdieron. Probaron reemplazantes a Robert Plant, pero nada funcionó. Se acabó. No hay planes para continuar. Francamente, ojalá todos dejaran de hablar al respecto."</P><P>Los fans no están nada contentos, especialmente los británicos, considerando los precios delirantes de las entradas del show reunión.</P><P>¿Y a ti? ¿Qué te parece todo esto?</P>

Sesame Street’s Kevin Clash Resigns As Voice Of Elmo
After 28 years as the voice of Elmo Kevin Clash has resigned from Sesame Street. The scandal that has rocked not only Kevin’s personal life but the iconic children show as well, has proven to be too much for the show and Clash. Until a couple of weeks ago many of you may not have known who Kevin was, I am sure you all knew Elmo and that distinctive voice the loveable character had but you may not have known that Clash was the man behind that voice. Thanks to his personal life, which has been rocked with inappropriate sexual allegations, the puppeteer will no longer be the voice of Elmo. Here is what Kevin has to say about his resignation. “I am resigning from Sesame Workshop with a very heavy heart. I have loved every day of my 28 years working for this exceptional organization. “Personal matters have diverted attention away from the important work Sesame Street is doing and I cannot allow it to go on any longer. I am deeply sorry to be leaving and am looking forward to resolving these personal matters privately.” Sheldon Stephens accused Kevin of having sex with him when Sheldon was underage. [...]

Michael Jackson Still The King Of Pop Three Years After Death
MJ's continued influence on pop culture has proved that the King of Pop will forever remain in the hearts of music fans.
By Nadeska Alexis
<P>Music fans the world over can mark June 25, 2009 as one of those eerie days that force them to recall exactly what they were doing in the moments before they heard tragic news. <a href="http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1614744/michael-jackson-dies-at-50.jhtml">Michael Jackson died</a> that day, at the age of 50, and the world was not ready to see him go.</P><P>No entertainer could ever fill the void that MJ left behind, but his memory has not faded in the three years that he's been gone. In the past 12 months alone, we've seen Jackson-inspired productions, heard narratives from celebrities who continually cite him as a key influence, and this summer his face will be plastered on Pepsi cans to commemorate the 25th anniversary of his classic album <i>Bad.</i> Keep reading to see a few examples from the past year that prove that Jackson has remained forever in the heart of pop culture.</P><P></p><div class="player-placeholder right" title="Remembering Michael Jackson" id="id:1614746" width="415" height="255"></div><p></P><P><strong>Conrad Murray manslaughter trial</strong></P><P>The public and very messy <a href="http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1673780/michael-jackson-trial-conrad-murray-prosecution-defense.jhtml">manslaughter trial for Jackson's doctor</a> Conrad Murray began in late September, and it was an excruciating and drawn-out ordeal for fans who were hoping to find closure after the star's death. After a painstaking six-week trial, which included testimony from 49 witnesses, a jury delivered a guilty verdict on involuntary manslaughter charges for Murray on November 7, and the world let out a collective sigh of relief.</P><P><strong><i>Watch the Throne</i> shout-out</strong></P><P>The guilty verdict in Murray's involuntary manslaughter trial was handed down just hours before Jay-Z and Kanye West's <a href="http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1673963/jay-z-kanye-west-watch-the-throne-madison-square-garden.jhtml"><i>Watch the Throne</i> tour</a> hit Madison Square Garden in New York, and it was clear that the hip-hop Titans were paying attention, just like everyone else. While spitting his lines on the <i>WTT's</i> "Welcome to the Jungle," Jay threw extra emphasis on the line, "Rest in peace to the leader of the Jackson 5," which drew applause from the crowd.</P><P><strong>Cirque Du Soleil launches Michael Jackson: The Immortal World Tour</strong></P><P>After a few preliminary shows in Canada, in October Cirque Du Soleil launched <a href="http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1682347/michael-jackson-immortal-cirque.jhtml">Michael Jackson: The Immortal World Tour</a> in the U.S., dedicating a two-hour production entirely to the fallen legend. The mind-blowing mashup of dance and acrobatics, set to MJ's music, was an immediate hit, and the 65 artists who trained intensely for their performances did not take their responsibilities lightly. When <a href="http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1682612/michael-jackson-immortal-world-tour.jhtml">MTV News caught up with</a> one of the dancers backstage, following a performance set to "Danger," he admitted that the entire production was deeply emotional, and that if MJ could see the show, "he would feel such a sense of pride of what he has given us to work with."</P><P><strong>Jackson tops fans' hologram wish list</strong></P><P>Tupac's hologram appearance at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in April set off a firestorm of speculation about which deceased entertainer we could expect to see onstage next. Not surprisingly, MJ was on the tip of many a fan's tongue. <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/lmfao/artist.jhtml">LMFAO</a>'s Redfoo put MJ's name at the top of his hologram wish list, while a quick poll of fans in the Times Square area found that the masses wholeheartedly agreed."It's a really cliché answer, but in my time I've never seen [Michael Jackson] and it would just be something awesome to watch," <a href="http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1684073/michael-jackson-amy-winehouse-holograms.jhtml">one fan told MTV News</a>.</P><P><strong>Justin Bieber's "Die in Your Arms" single inspired by MJ</strong></P><P>Justin Bieber stopped by MTV's Times Square studio on June 19 for his "Bieber Live" special, during which the 18-year-old superstar performed one of his new singles <a href="http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1687838/justin-bieber-die-in-your-arms-michael-jackson.jhtml">"Die in Your Arms,"</a> and explained that the track was inspired by old MJ footage he viewed during a session with producer Rodney Jerkins. "Before I got in the booth, [Rodney Jerkins] showed me this hour-long video of Michael [Jackson] footage, never been seen before. It's Michael's personality, him in the booth dancing. It's some really special stuff," Bieber recalled. "So me seeing that, going in there and being inspired and working with Rodney, who worked with Michael — it was incredible."</P><P><strong>Pepsi 'Live For Now' Campaign</strong></P><P>In 1984 Michael Jackson first linked up with Pepsi for a $5 million marketing campaign, and 28 years later the soda giant is teaming up with the Jackson estate to commemorate the 25th anniversary edition of his classic album <i>Bad.</i> The <a href="http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1684460/michael-jackson-pepsi-cans.jhtml">"Live for Now" campaign</a> will find the icon's face plastered on special, limited-edition Pepsi cans this summer. The cans will include special download codes treating fans to <i>Bad</i> remixes.</P><P><strong>Rick Ross shouts out MJ on <i>Self Made Vol. 2</i> </strong></P><P>From Bieber to Rick Ross, no artist has escaped the influence of Michael Jackson. The Maybach Music Group CEO is unveiling his latest compilation album <a href="http://rapfix.mtv.com/2012/06/21/maybach-music-self-made-vol-2-album-stream/"><i>Self Made Vol. 2</i></a> on Tuesday, just one day after the anniversary of Jackson's death, and that fact didn't escape him. Ross begins the LP's intro by telling fans, "If Michael Jackson came alive right now, he'd ask you to smoke one for him. So in his honor [lights up]."</P><P><b>Jackson Brothers launch Unity Tour</b></P><P>Five days before the June 25 anniversary of MJ's death, his four brothers — Jermaine, Jackie, Tito and Marlon — launched their <a href="http://rapfix.mtv.com/2012/04/23/michael-jackson-hologram-jackson-brothers-tour/">Unity Tour</a>. The Jackson brothers revealed that a joint tour has been in the making for years, but admitted that they needed time to heal after losing the most famous member of the Jackson 5. Following Michael's death, all four brothers were featured on the A&E reality series "The Jacksons: A Family Dynasty," which found them coping with their loss. In April it was rumored that an MJ hologram would make an appearance on the jaunt, but there's been no confirmation that the early reports were true.</P>

Paris Hilton's Late Night Club Date
Out for a night on the town, Paris Hilton and River Viiperi arrived at the Lure nightclub in Hollywood on Saturday (November 24).
The hotel heiress smoldered in a short, black long-sleeved dress, with a sheer section showing off some cleavage, fishnet stockings, and shades, while her model boyfriend chose a casual look in a white T-shirt, gray zip-up sweatshirt, and blue jeans.
Recently, the 31-year-old former reality star sparked controversy by opening a handbag store in the Saudi Arabian city of Mecca.
Noting Paris' 2003 sex tape, some Saudis have called the move an "insult" to the holy city, where Muslims flock annually for a pilgrimage. Meanwhile, Ms. Hilton has not responded to the controversy, tweeting simply, "Loving my beautiful new store that just opened at Mecca Mall in Saudi Arabia!"

Tom Cruise Films "All You Need is Kill" in London After Holiday Visit with Suri
Spending the holiday weekend hard at work overseas, Tom Cruise filmed "All You Need is Kill" in Trafalgar Square in London on Sunday (November 25).
The "Mission Impossible Star" looked handsome in his dark green military officer's uniform as he shot some scenes on the ground and then went up in a helicopter.
In the sci-fi action flick, Tom stars as a soldier fighting in a war with aliens who finds himself caught in a time loop of his last day in the battle, though he becomes better skilled along the way.
If the 50-year-old actor seemed to have more pep in his step, it may be because he recently got a visit from his 6-year-old daughter Suri, who he reportedly hadn't seen in person for months.
