Justin Bieber – What Do You Mean?
The newest single from Justin Bieber dropped late last week, followed by his return to the MTV Video Music Awards stage, and this week the R&B crooner debuted the video for “What Do You Mean?”. The video features the singer getting steamy with his female co-star and showing off his Calvins in product placement shots that I’m guessing his fans don’t mind one bit. Even more notable than the debut of the new single from the famous bad-boy is the debut of his new hair style, which made world news once again after it made it’s way down the VMA red carpet. Do you dig his new hair or did the Biebs ripoff mom of 8, Kate Gosselin? Let me know in the comments below.
Taylor Swift – Wildest Dreams
After Taylor Swift picked up a handful of awards and presented the Video Vanguard Award to Kanye West at the VMAs, the most famous female in the world delivered the video for her new single “Wildest Dreams.” In the dramatic video, the singer plays out a Liz Taylor / Richard Burton love story in the deserts of Africa with actor Scott Eastwood. Rocking a brunette wig and glamour like crazy, the singer also delivers her sexiest video to date. Watch “Wildest Dreams” below and let me know your thoughts on her African adventure in the comments below.

Carrie Underwood – Smoke Break
She’s back! Carrie Underwood returned last week with her first single –post-baby– from her upcoming record Storyteller, which drops October 23. “Smoke Break” is Underwood’s ode to the hard-workers who need to “take a load off” now and again. In the Miranda Lambert-style (see: “Automatic”) song and video, the singer makes her return to the top, as the track became the most added song to Country radio this week.
Cassadee Pope – I Am Invincible (Lyric Video)
