A new year, a whole new side to Kanye West!

The rapper has apparently began dabbling in spinning records instead of cutting them, and is reportedly ready to start 2012 by play the grand opening of 10AK in Las Vegas tonight – as a deejay, using the pseudonym YeezyWorldPeace!

We can’t even begin to imagine what else he’ll have in store for us the coming year!

But we’re cautiously excited to find out!

With as many potential hits as there are on that album, we don’t blame her for needing some help picking her next single!

Rihanna apparently just couldn’t decide what track off of Talk That Talk to drop next, so she took to Twitter to ask her fans to help her figure it out!

She wrote:

“I need answers!!!! #NEXTSINGLE #TTT”

And after many quickly wrote back – the top choices were Cockiness (Love It), Watch N’ Learn, and Drunk On Love – RiRi responded:

“Ok DONE!!!! I like what I see…and decisions are MADE!!! #NEXTSINGLE.

“And we on da same page…(For the most part)”

Excellent!

We much prefer this usage of the social networking site than possible thinly-veiled messages of love to abusive exes, gurl!

Now what is your official choice for the next song?!

We say Drunk On Love! And don’t forget Red Lipstick!

‘Atta, gurl!

Lindsay Lohan is NOT happy about reports that she’ll be pAArtying it up in Dubai for the New Year, and has even had her lawyers fire off a cease and desist letter to the company planning the event on the QE2, demanding that they stop using her name to promote it!

According to attorney Stephanie Ovadia, the actress “will suffer harm and damage” by using her without permission, and she will press charges if necessary!

Fair enough! We’ve been very proud of how committed she’s been as of late to getting her act together, and are happy to know that this story was just nonsense!

Hopefully they’ll stop the name-dropping and no further legal action will need to be taken!

We are SO excited for Nelly Furtado‘s new album!

Check out the singer discussing the creative process behind recording her new, English-language album, T.S.I., which is due out in 2012, and collaborating with producer Salaam Remi for her new sound (above)!

Oh man!

We LOVE the stuff that he’s done for Amy Winehouse and Nas, and we imagine that his aesthetic will lend itself well to Nelly’s vocals!

This is going to be awesome!

What do U think?? Are U looking forward to T.S.I.?

Well, this isn’t something you hear every day!

DMX was pulled over last week by authorities, but this time – he was let go!

According to law enforcement, the rapper received a citation for not wearing a seat belt while driving with his assistant in Hollywood, but that was it!

And X himself explains:

“Just a minor ticket no biggie. A quick learning lesson about not wearing a seat belt. I will handle and pay for it. This would be the only reason I come in contact with the police because I am a changed man.”

We are certainly glad to hear that, boy!

But please remember to wear your seat belt!

It’s for your own safety, after all!

Well…at least he didn’t blindside her!

Although Russell Brand was the one spotted filing the court papers to divorce from Katy Perry after a year of marriage, apparently, the singer was the one who wanted him to – so she didn’t have to deal with the wrath of her religious parents!

According to sources, the two have been in trouble for the past few months, but wanted to do their best to work things out. However, that just wasn’t going to happen, so Katy asked Russell to “officially” end the marriage, because her folks are evangelical Christians and raised her to believe that divorce is wrong.

Happy to know that things have been kept amicable enough for him to at least agree to help her out!

Such a shame, though!

Stay strong, you guys! You’re both in our thoughts!

Brr! It looks cold!

Britney Spears and her new fiance Jason Trawick were seen all bundled up as they spent the day shopping in New York on Friday.

The couple spent the holidays in NYC where they went out on the town for a friend’s birthday at The Darby – and Brit was even serenaded by the band with a cover tribute to her song Toxic! Aaah!

The two will also stay in the city where they will spend New Year’s Eve together! Good choice!

As they strolled down the streets of New York, Brit Brit showed off her sparkling engagement before popping into a deli where they picked up some grub.

Gotta keep our Brit Brit satisfied, you know!

You two look so happy! We have a feeling that 2012 will be one of Brit’s best years yet!

P.S. Could that…wait….could that possibly be a baby bump that Britney is sporting??
