Katy Perry brings in the big guns in the form of Kanye West on the fourth single off her ‘Teenage Dream’ album, with ‘E.T.’.

Kanye raps “I got a dirty mind, I got filthy ways / I’m trying to bathe my egg in your milky way,” sleazy Kanye warns in the intro to “E.T.” Later in the song, he adds, “Tell me what’s next, alien sex? I’m-a disrobe you, then I’m-a probe you.”

The last three singles off the album, ‘California Gurls’, ‘Teenage Dream’ and ‘Firework’ all soared to the top of the Billboard 100.  Will this song do the same? Listen to the song here, let me know what you think!

Yesterday she posted a picture from the set of the music video. She wrote: “‘E.T.’ the fourth single off ‘Teenage Dream’ drops tomorrow, the song and music video feature Kanye West! The upcoming out-of-this-world video which was directed by Floria Sigismondi will arrive to planet Earth soon!”

Picture after the jump! (more…)

VMAN just sent over these new pictures of Kanye West for their new magazine. The photos were done by Karl Lagerfeld, who’s a huge fan of the singer.

Rapper Nicki Minaj graces the cover of the latest V Magazine.  Nicki lives up to the hype in “The Discovery Issue,” with Inez Van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin photographing the birth of a star in her dual-cover (fold-out) issue.

“Everything I do has been approved by me personally. My team is mostly made up of guys, but none of them would ever think about telling me what to wear or what to do with my hair. They know that ultimately I’m gonna do what I’m gonna do.” – Nicki Minaj

During a radio interview last summer in support of Kanye West’s new single, “Monster” – a psych-rap posse track featuring Jay-Z, Rick Ross, Nicki Minaj, and indie-folk singer Bon Iver – West declared Minaj to be “the scariest artist in the game right now – she has the most potential to be the number two rapper of all time.” (Number one, in Kanye’s mind, being Eminem.)  Nicki Minaj…the funny face with the Day-Glo wigs, bounteous curves, and multiple personalities? Number two rapper of all time? In-old school hip hop circles the idea could be considered profane.

Now, just in the wake of her debut album, Minaj is deadly serious about not taking it all too seriously. “I’m an entertainer – I like to make people laugh,” she says. “Some will hate it and some will love it, but all will remember it. And that’s what I want: to be remembered. Even if I’m saying something hard-core or controversial, there’s always a touch of humor, and if you don’t like it, it means I’m stirring things up inside of you.” At the same time, there’s a lot going on inside the artist’s own head. “I just always want to do ‘me,’ but ‘me’ changes every day. I would crumble up and die if I had to wake up and be the same person every day. I don’t silence those voices anymore. I just let them speak.”

V Magazine hits newsstands tomorrow, January 13th!

Cause he’s a motha-f**kin monsta! (I CANNOT get his ‘Monster’ song out of my head. It was stuck in my head until about 4:00am this morning…thanks a lot Kanye!)

Anyway, a photographer is suing Kanye West after he reportedly sustained injuries three years ago during a scuffle with Kanye’s security team.

Michael Vasquez claims that the assault took place during a May 2008 party in New York. West was on hand to perform at the event, during which Vasquez claims that “his agents, servants and/or employees acting in the course and within the scope of their employment, detained and/or threatened and/or caused plaintiff to suffer injuries.”

Vasquez, 44, went on to say, “The assault and battery was committed by the defendant, West, [his] agents, servants and/or employees, with malice” and caused him “physical, mental and emotional illness.”

According to the NY Post, police confirm that Vasquez did file a report hours after the incident, detailing that his cell phone and camera had been confiscated from him during the scuffle.

Police threw out the original case, after finding that the “complaint was unfounded.” Vasquez is now seeking an unspecified amount of monetary compensation for his suffering.

Back in 2009, Courtney Love had been in a heated argument with designer Dawn Simorangkir. Dawn claimed that Courtney owed her thousands of dollars in unpaid clothes.

The dispute erupted on March 17, when Courtney took to her Twitter page and began a long string of shocking insults against Dawn.

Love’s tweets, which instantly landed in the Twitter feeds of her 40,000 or so followers (and countless others via retweets), announced that Simorangkir was a drug-pushing prostitute with a history of assault and battery who lost custody of her own child and capitalized on Love’s fame before stealing from her. “She has received a VAST amount of money from me over 40,000 dollars and I do not make people famous and get raped TOO!” Love wrote..

That particular tirade that Courtney posted on Twitter, Etsy and Myspace – is now the center of a lawsuit, the first of it’s kind. The Hollywood Reporter has more:

“There has never been anything like this case before,” says Simorangkir attorney Bryan Freedman, who will attempt to convince a Los Angeles jury that Love’s false statements destroyed his client’s fashion career, thus entitling her to potentially millions of dollars in damages.

In an age when public figures from Kanye West to Ryan Seacrest communicate influential messages to thousands — sometimes millions — of followers on social platforms, the Love case raises the question of whether celebrities, like the news media, should be liable for what happens if they intentionally put untrue and damaging statements in front of their loyal readers.

“We don’t believe there’s any defamation, and even if there were defamatory statements, there was no damage,” says James Janowitz, an attorney for Love.
A key to the case, say First Amendment lawyers, could be whether an average Twitter user would interpret Love’s vicious tweets as facts rather than merely her opinion.

“I’ll be interested to see if the court gives people posting on Twitter more latitude than other media,” says Alonzo Wickers, a defamation expert who has handled matters for such media clients as Comedy Central and TMZ. “The way Twitter is evolving, it seems to be more of a means to express opinion. I would hope courts give tweets the same latitude as they do an op-ed piece or a letter to the editor.”

Love has already given her deposition in the case. Love claims that she was only repeating in her tweets, things that Simorangkir said herself.

Love will reportedly claim that she had no idea how influential her comments were on Twitter, and she didn’t maliciously intend to ruin anyone’s reputation.

Should get interesting! Trial is scheduled to begin Jan. 18!

What do you think – should Courtney Love be held responsible for nasty Tweets?
