Nikki Reed, Facinelli’s ‘Twilight’ co-star and McDonald’s girlfriend, brought the pair together for indie film’s soundtrack. By Kara Warner Peter Facinelli Photo: Jeff Kravitz/ Getty Images When he hasn’t been busy with the box-office-dominating “Twilight” movies or Showtime’s hit show “Nurse Jackie,” Peter Facinelli has been working on a passion project, “Loosies,” an independent film he wrote, produced and stars in. In addition to enlisting a high-caliber crew of actors for the project, MTV News has exclusively learned that Facinelli has teamed up with a very special musician to contribute music to the film’s soundtrack: recent “American Idol” castoff Paul McDonald . We caught up with Facinelli on Monday (April 18) to get the scoop on his exciting collaboration. “I was telling Nikki [Reed, McDonald’s girlfriend and Facinelli’s ‘Twilight’ co-star] I was looking for music for my movie, and she said, ‘You should look through Paul’s stuff,’ ” Facinelli recalled. “She was a big fan of his, I heard, and I thought it really worked for my movie, so I played some tracks over it, where we had temp tracks, and it just all worked. So I reached out to Paul, I sent him the movie, and he enjoyed it a lot, and he said he wanted to be a part of it, which I was stoked.” Facinelli added that McDonald’s original music is really inspirational and fit well with what he was doing on “Loosies.” “He has a band, and his band stuff is very different then what he was doing on ‘American Idol,’ ” Facinelli said. “I heard him on ‘American Idol,’ and I thought he was great, but when I heard the band, it’s very distinct and has a voice of its own, and I like the originality of it,” he explained. “So we’ll probably use most of the music from the two albums he has out now on iTunes,” which were recorded under the band names the Grand Magnolias and High Tide Blues. “Loosies” revolves around a pickpocket in New York, caught up in a fast-paced, hustlin’ lifestyle, until he is confronted by a woman with whom he had a one-night stand and is now pregnant. Facinelli is putting the finishing touches on the film before setting out to find distribution and hopefully a theatrical release.

And here we thought Britney Spears was merely ripping off a cheesy old pickup line with the lyrics to her newest #1 single, ” Hold It Against Me .” Well, The Bellamy Brothers, singers of “If I Said You Had a Beautiful Body, Would You Hold It Against Me,” claim it’s their cheesy line dammit! The country duo says it has “no personal beef” with Britney, however, “in all honesty, we feel completely ripped off. Where’s the originality?” LOL. She hasn’t had any of that in years, but that doesn’t mean she’s to blame here. Anyway, the Bellamys aren’t going to sue, they’re just pissed. Do they have reason to be? Listen to the two versions after the jump … The Bellamy Brothers – If I Said You Had A Beautiful Body Britney Spears – Hold It Against Me (Full Version)
‘Both our videos are road movies. We kill people, and they kill people,’ singer tells New York Times. By James Montgomery M.I.A. Photo: Jon Kopaloff/ FilmMagic She might not have many nice things to say about Lady Gaga lately, but M.I.A. freely admits that her controversial “Born Free” video took more than a little inspiration from Gaga. Like, way more than a little. “With our video, we were really copying ‘Telephone,’ ” M.I.A. told the New York Times Magazine in a feature set to run on Sunday (May 30). “Both our videos are road movies. We kill people, and they kill people. They start out in a prison, and we start out in a squat, hunting people down.” But the (sorta) pleasantries end there, as M.I.A. went on to land another jab against Gaga. “All I’ll say is, it’s upsetting when babies say ‘ga-ga’ now,” the British/Sri Lankan artist told the magazine. “It used to be innocent. Now, they’re calling her name.” She said she gets annoyed when LG is praised for her originality — saying she mostly borrows from ABBA — and positively livid when her rival is compared to Madonna. “You can’t really say that Gaga is culturally a change,” she said. “Madonna was truly unique.” Of course, in the same feature, M.I.A.’s pal — and “Born Free” director — Romain Gavras gets far nastier, joking to the Times ‘ Lynn Hirschberg that “Madonna was pretty. … Pop stars should be pretty.” M.I.A. explained that she and Gavras had originally intended to shoot the “Born Free” clip on the U.S.-Mexican border, but ultimately had to move production to Los Angeles because, as she put it, “Interscope won.” And she told Hirschberg that she purposely avoided showing the completed video to the folks at the label (to which both she and Gaga are signed) because “the Interscope lawyers will want to send [it] to a censorship board.” (Of course, Interscope head Jimmy Iovine told the Times that not only did he see the video, but that it “was more than fine with me. … I didn’t even have a blink.”) Building on that concept, M.I.A. said she’s planning a stage show based entirely on censorship, with the audience’s every move monitored and recorded, and individuals singled out and asked to leave if they violate certain rules. “I want to be like the government,” she said. “It could be interesting.” Which video do you prefer, Lady Gaga’s “Telephone” or M.I.A.’s “Born Free”?
