Demi Lovato Promises ‘Better And Bigger’ Fall Tour

Unbroken singer tells MTV News that fans can expect Lady Gaga, Maroon 5 covers; hints at plans for 2012 world tour. By Christina Garibaldi Demi Lovato Photo: MTV News Demi Lovato has been hitting a lot of high notes lately. On Monday, the “Skyscraper” singer sang the national anthem at the World Series , she’ll be performing alongside Lady Gaga at Z100’s Jingle Ball concert in December and she’s gearing up to hit the road for 10 tour dates beginning next month. “[I’m] very excited,” Lovato told MTV News about heading out for the first time since leaving the Jonas Brothers’ tour to seek treatment for personal issues last November. The 19-year-old has already given fans a sneak peek at what can expect from her during two recent shows in New York and in Los Angeles. “We’re gonna do the same show, but a little bit different … better and bigger, and my fans just have to come check it out,” Lovato said of the dates beginning November 16 in Detroit. “We were just experimenting with the show and trying to see how it all played out and give my fans something that will bait them in for the tour.” Lovato will be performing songs off her Unbroken album, plus her fan favorite rendition of Lil Wayne’s “How to Love.” But Wayne won’t be the only artist she covers onstage. “I’m thinking of maybe a Maroon 5 or Lady Gaga cover,” Lovato revealed. “I like ‘Born this Way’ and ‘Moves Like Jagger,’ I’d want to perform one of those.” If Lovato isn’t heading to your hometown this time around, no need to worry, it looks like she’ll be back on the road sooner than expected. “I’m planning on a world tour next year,” Lovato told us. While it’s still unconfirmed when Lovato will kick off that world tour, she already has an opening act in mind. “You know who I did see the other day on the Internet was that little girl Sophia Grace,” Lovato said of the eight-year-old U.K. sensation who gained YouTube fame with her cover of Nicki Minaj’s “Super Bass.” “She’s so cute, maybe she can open up for me,” Demi said. Apart from singing skills, Grace and Lovato have at least one more thing in common: their love for Nicki Minaj. “I just love that she can rap and sing,” Lovato said of the Queens rapper. “You know, a lot of people can just rap and she can rap and sing and she has a really good voice. She’s fun; she doesn’t take herself too seriously. A lot of artists take themselves way too seriously. It’s hard to find artists that just want to have fun these days, and that’s what she does.” Does that mean Demi would want Minaj to hit the road with her? “She would be amazing. I would be opening up for her though,” Lovato laughed. Will you catch Demi on tour? Let us know in the comments!

In Playboy, Lindsay will be covered up only by the stains on her teeth . Hugh Hefner and Co. came back to LiLo with an offer less than her asking price, but close enough for her to sign on the dotted line and lose the clothes. No word yet on which issue Lindsay will be featured in, but she will be on the cover for sure – gotta make that investment pay off, are we right Hugh?! Lindsay’s rep said, “I can neither confirm or deny at this time.” Playboy has not made a clear confirmation of it either, but reports say the shoot is on.

Anneka Di Lorenzo, Former Centerfold, Washes Up on California Coast, Puzzling Investigators

When the body of Anneka Di Lorenzo washed up by Camp Pendleton, a Marine Corps in Southern California, investigators believed it was someone quite young. Only later were the remains determined to be those of the 58-year-old former model and actress who once aspired to be “the sexiest woman in the world.” Anneka Di Lorenzo, the 1975 Penthouse Pet of the Year, was found earlier this year in a restricted area of the USMC base with her neck and back broken. What investigators are struggling to determine is how. After becoming Pet of the Year, she acted in Caligula and other films. She dated Penthouse publisher Bob Guccione, who she sued for sexual harassment. She became a nursing assistant after her stint in Hollywood, but she had a history of mental health problems, including paranoia, and was on medications. An autopsy found no drugs in her body, however. Born Anneka Vasta, she was found on rocky sand about a mile south of where her car was recovered. Her Madza was parked overlooking a scenic vista, but not one from which she could have jumped to the water beneath. “The unanswered question that we have is how she got from her vehicle to the water,” NCIS agent Rachel McGranaghan tells the San Diego Union-Tribune . “We know her life ended in the water, in some circumstance, we just don’t know how.” On January 2, two days before her body was found, Anneka rented a room at a Motel 6. There’s no evidence she actually used the room, however. Inside her 2001 Mazda 626 sedan were signs of trauma. A woman’s leopard-print blouse and a sports bra, stained with blood, were wrapped in a plastic bag. A steak knife covered with Vasta’s blood lay on the passenger floorboard. There were slashes on Vasta’s wrist, but not deep enough to kill her. Family members say that Di Lorenzo had a daughter in college whom she spoke with every day, and she would not have committed suicide. They speculate someone may have killed her. As Vasta’s sister, Susan Thoreson, tells the Union-Tribune : “I think something happened when Anneka couldn’t maybe fend for herself.”

Amy Winehouse Death Report Sent to Some Dude

Amy Winehouse’s official death report, containing both highly personal and confidential information, was mailed to a random stranger instead of her family. Must have been quite a surprise for the London resident who, as far as anybody can tell, has no connection to the late singer, who died this summer. At least this stranger seems to have been an honest one: The material was turned in to a London police station. Still … how the heck did that happen? A spokesman for the Metropolitan police explained the mix-up, saying that the paperwork was simply delivered to the wrong address, per The Guardian . “Police were informed on Friday that material relating to a forthcoming inquest may have been delivered to an incorrect address,” the spokesman said . “On Friday evening, material was handed in at a north London police station. Inquiries are underway to establish the full circumstances of this matter.” The singer was found dead July 23 and toxicology tests had confirmed no drugs were found in her system at the time of her death, but alcohol was. “Results indicate that alcohol was present, but it cannot be determined as yet if it played a role in her death,” the Winehouse family said in a statement. An inquest into Amy Winehouse’s cause of death death is due to reopen this Wednesday after the initial postmortem exam proved inconclusive.

Kelly Clarkson Calls Stronger Her ‘Best Album’

‘I think after 10 years of doing it you feel a little stronger personally and musically,’ she tells MTV News of brand-new LP’s title. By Jocelyn Vena, with reporting by Matt Elias Kelly Clarkson Photo: MTV News Kelly Clarkson ‘s Stronger, the follow-up to 2009’s All I Ever Wanted, is an album full of power pop that finds Kelly delivering an empowerment message with her signature sassiness. Released on Monday (October 24), Stronger is a mix of ballads and uptempo tracks. Lead single “Mr. Know It All” kicked off the release and sets the tone for the record, which includes production and songwriting credits from industry heavyweights like Toby Gad, Clarkson fave Claude Kelly, Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins and Brian Kennedy. “I worked really hard on it,” said Clarkson, who is now five albums into a nearly decade-long career. “And it’s my best album, I think, to date.” The singer had to deal with some issues, however, including some delays before the record finally got an official release date; many tracks even leaked onto the Internet. But Clarkson knows how to handle adversity, as her album title reflects. “There were a few different titles that were going around and I think the reason why we came up with Stronger was just because every song was about empowerment and almost like overcoming stuff,” she explained. “So, even if it was a bad situation and a sad song, it was about overcoming that. So by the end of the song, it’s kind of more inspiration than sad. So I think that’s why [we named it that], and I think after 10 years of doing it you feel a little stronger personally and musically. People know you better. It’s just easier, I think.” The album’s track list is full of song titles that include the word “you”: “What Doesn’t Kill You,” “I Forgive You,” “You Love Me.” So we asked Clarkson, exactly who did she have on her mind while recording the album. “I don’t know. I guess I was the opposite of a narcissist this time,” she laughed. “They’re all different ‘you’s.’ I didn’t have a bad breakup or anything,” she continued. “I just think life is about relationships so I always write all about these different ones going on in my life. And I don’t have a filter, so it’s pretty verbatim.” With her album finally out, Clarkson is looking forward to hitting the road. “Starting the tour in January, we’re doing that right now [and] we’re developing that right now.” Share your reviews of Stronger in the comments below!

Tyler, The Creator Wants To Produce For Lil Wayne

‘I actually have this beat that I want him on,’ MC tells MTV News of Weezy, an admitted Odd Future fan. By Rob Markman Tyler, the Creator Photo: FilmMagic Odd Future can now add Lil Wayne to their already-rabid fanbase. While on the set of Birdman’s “Y.U. Mad” video in Miami on October 15, Weezy — who was rocking a MellowHype T-shirt — told MTV News how he supports the Cali collective . “I just rock with ’em. Shout-out my man Taco; that’s my dude,” Weezy F. said of OF and Taco in particular. “I’m just real cool with the homies. Shouts out, Tyler.” Well, for OF de facto frontman , the admiration is mutual. “Wayne’s cool. I ran into him at my hangout back home, and he’s just cool,” Tyler told MTV News. Tyler also has dreams of working with Wayne, but he hasn’t yet built up the courage to tap his manager Christian Clancy to help put the plan in motion. “I actually have this beat that I want him on, but I was too scared to get it to Clancy to get it to them, but Wayne’s cool.” When they met, the two rappers didn’t get to speak long, and it was Weezy who dominated the conversation. “I wanted to kinda fan out and sh–,” Tyler admitted, “but he gave me a speech about how happy he was that I won a VMA and that seeing my mom go crazy kinda made him feel like he won it too, because that sh– was real as f—.” While the Goblin rapper and producer was taken aback by Weezy’s props, he was disappointed that he didn’t get to speak his piece and talk about his favorite Weezy mixtape. “He sat there for three minutes giving me a speech, and I’m like, ‘I just wanted to say that Da Drought 3 was my sh–,’ and I couldn’t,” Tyler said with disappointment. During his OFWGKTA hangout session, Weezy and members of the ragtag crew skated at Supreme Store in L.A. Though many have been critical of Tunechi’s affinity for skateboarding, Tyler, who is a lifelong skater, is supportive. “It’s just weird when people from a different world come into our world,” he said. “But then again, he’s just f—in’ having fun. That’s what people don’t get and sh–. He’s learning, and I think it’s cool that he takes the time out of his day to just do some f—in’ sh– that makes him happy for the day. I just wish people would realize sh– like that.” Related Artists Tyler, The Creator Lil Wayne Odd Future

Surprise: ‘Paranormal Activity 3′ Rakes In Highest September/October Opening Weekend Numbers Ever

Who’da thunk it? As much as most of us probably laughed when we heard that a “Paranormal Activity 3″ was coming to a theater near us, thousands spent their money to check it out this weekend, making it a record-breaking film. Paramount’s threequel/prequel will have to settle with merely being the second- biggest horror debut ever, the eighth-biggest R-rated opening, and the top October launch. Tragic, I know. The $5 million film grossed a massive $54 million this weekend, which is a 35% jump from Paranormal Activity 2′s $40.6 million opening this time last year. The film had a massively front loaded weekend, the ninth-biggest on record, with a mere 2.06x weekend multiplier. Still, that was better than the 2.01x weekend multiplier for Paranormal Activity 2 last year (the sixth-smallest such multiplier). The picture played 53% under-25 and 54% female. Considering the film pulled just in $1.7 million more at midnight, the $26 million opening day (around $6 million more than Paranormal Activity 2′s $20.6 million Friday) and $14 million jump in total opening weekend compared to the last film, there is a clear growth in this series. Which probably means there will be a “Paranormal Activity 4″… The first film opened very slowly, with massive per-screen averages leading up to a pre-Halloween wide release that grossed $21 million against the opening weekend of the comparatively under performing Saw VI ($14 million). Paranormal Activity ended up with $109 million, while the sequel opened with a massive $40 million weekend but ended with just $84 million (a meager 2.1x weekend-to-final gross multiplier). Even if the third picture manages equally poor legs, it will still end up with $113 million. Whether or not the series has peaked with the third installment like Saw III, this uber-cheap franchise has been a licence to print money for the last three years and should continue to be so for the next few Halloweens. Paramount has scored a studio’s dream – blockbuster grosses on a franchise with minuscule costs. It’s already done $26 million worldwide, giving the film a massive (for a cheap horror film) $80 million worldwide debut. Come what may, they will be milking this series until the audience stops caring. Did you catch “Paranormal Activity 3″ this weekend? If not, does the movie’s opening weekend success make you wanna see it now? Source
