HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!! XOXO,IDOL INSIDER

Britney premiered her new video for the number one single, “3”, this morning. While the video lacks any oohs and aahs, Britney looks hot, despite the obvious attempt to recreate a “Single Ladies” vibe! Fellas, it’s worth a watch – enjoy!

The countdown is on until America’s sweetheart, Carrie Underwood, releases her third LP, Play On. To kick off the release, the country cutie has teamed with iTunes to release a new track from the album each week until its November 3rd release. This week, iTunes released the touching track dedicated to her mother, appropriately titled “Mama’s Song”. On October 20th, the single “Temporary Home” will hit the digital download store, followed by “Undo It” on the 27th of the same month, which will bring us a week out to the release of Play On. Don’t forget to pick up the latest single from Carrie, “Cowboy Casanova”, as well as the…

Dear Rachel Zoe: I am not a stylist, nor do I classify myself a Fashionista, but something has recently come to my attention that must be addressed. One of the most brilliant vocalists of our time, in my opinion, has been stepping out in some hideous attire. Kelly Clarkson, who is very open about her struggle with weight, has been seen in some unflattering, and completely hideous, outfit choices as of late.

Katharine McPhee’s video for her new single, “I Had It All”, hit the net last night. Unfortunately for Kat, the video is missing any storyline and just features a bunch of beauty shots of the past Idol contestant. A fan of the long haired brunette, it took me a while to get used to the blonde bob, but this doesn’t help her cause. I am down with the shots of her in the desert, but the slicked back look has to go! It’s not hot and it ruins the video for us, but the song is still great, so take a look and judge for yourself. Enjoy!

So, Miley Cyrus, deleted her Twitter account and the gossip sites were all a buzz. Stories broke that Miley was dating a new guy that didn’t like her obsession with the social networking site, while some sites even reported that an “enraged” Billy Ray, Miley’s dad, was pleading for her to come back to the site. Looks like Miley is getting closer and closer to that inevitable breakdown, similar to the one Britney suffered over the past few years. Check out this video/rap that Miley lip-sychs her way thru to explain to fans why she left her tweeting days behind. It’s so ridiculous, I couldn’t resist sharing it with y’all.

She recently performed at Music Across America concert in California and luckily I can check out some of the new songs via her performances, and now, thanks to me, you can too! Check ’em out, she’s rockin’ her new sound! “Brand New Key” “Terrified” (With Jason Reeves) “Had It All” “Lifetime” “Over It” “Say Goodbye” “It’s Not Right” & “How”
