Kanye West is keeping it simple for his next album. The rapper has unveiled the art for his upcoming CD, which will be titled “Yeezus” and which will drop on June 18. It’s simply a plain case with a disc inside and a piece of red tape. Sort of surprising for a guy who debuted his latest music video on the side of buildings around the world. Check out the art now and sound off: Did the Kim Kardashian baby daddy make a good choice?
LeAnn Rimes has come cleaner than ever before in a new interview with People . The singer – whose affair with now-husband Eddie Cibrian in 2009 colored her as the villain in a never-ending feud with Brandi Glanville – talked to the magazine from her home in Los Angeles recently and admitted: “I made some really bad choices. I caused hurt.” Why is she speaking out now? Because Rimes will release “Spitfire” out June 4 and the tracks on the album apparently document the drama that has comprised her life for the last four years. Some lyrics even include an apology to ex-husband Dean Sheremet . “I broke the sweetest heart of the only man that’s ever loved me,” she sings in “What Have I Done.” Rimes also combines non-fiction with art when crooning about being a mistress in “Borrowed” and she makes a peace offering to a woman scorned in “Just a Girl Like You.” “I’ve grown up a lot these last five years,” LeAnn tells People . “I thought my life was falling apart, but now everything is good.”
They sure do! Diana DeGarmo and Ace Young made it official yesterday: they are the First Couple of American Idol . The former contestants exchanged vows in front of 250 friends and family members the Luxe Sunset Boulevard Hotel in Los Angeles. DeGarmo (a Season 3 runner-up) and Young (a contestant on Season 5) started dating while performing in a Broadway production of Hair in 2010. They got engaged during the Season 11 live finale last May. Said Young to People shortly after the ceremony: “Today was the best day of my life. Diana and I are in it forever. She’s my best friend.”
The Doctor will soon be out. Speaking to The Daily Telegraph this week, Matt Smith confirmed that he will soon exit Doctor Who , the iconic BBC series he joined as the titular hero in 2010. Said the star, whose final appearance will be this year’s Christmas special: “Doctor Who has been the most brilliant experience for me as an actor and a bloke, and that largely is down to the cast, crew and fans of the show. I’m incredibly grateful to all the cast and crew who work tirelessly every day, to realize all the elements of the show and deliver Doctor Who to the audience.” Smith made a point to acknowledge long-time producer Steven Moffat and then, of course, turned his focus to the show’s followers. “The fans of Doctor Who around the world are unlike any other; they dress up, shout louder, know more about the history of the show (and speculate more about the future of the show) in a way that I’ve never seen before, your dedication is truly remarkable. Thank you so very much for supporting my incarnation of the Time Lord, number Eleven, who I might add is not done yet, I’m back for the 50th anniversary and the Christmas special.” It’s unknown who will replace Smith in the lead role, but Jenna-Louise Coleman will stick around as the Doctor’s companion.
