New Details On Miley Cyrus’ Upcoming Album And First Single ‘Can’t Be Tamed’

After selling 15 million records worldwide and touting 5 chart topping album debuts, Miley Cyrus is releasing her Can’t Be Tamed CD June 22 worldwide on Hollywood Records. MySpace Music will host the global premier of the new single, “Can’t Be Tamed,” on Friday, April 30 at 12pm EST/9am PST. “Can’t Be Tamed” will arrive at radio May 3, and will be available as a digital single for sale on iTunes May 18. The new album will be available as a standalone CD, as well as a combo CD/DVD concert release. The DVD contains a full length, never-before-seen presentation from Miley’s sold-out worldwide “Miley World” tour. The concert will also be excerpted in a prime-time network special, to be announced shortly.

Miley has grown up in the public eye, and her new CD reveals her natural progression and sophistication. Miley teamed with Grammy Award-winning producer John Shanks (Sheryl Crow, Celine Dion, Kelly Clarkson, Bon Jovi) and long-time Miley Cyrus collaborators Tim James & Antonina Armato (“Seven Things” and “See You Again”). Tim & Antonina produced and co-wrote “Can’t Be Tamed” with Miley, and the video was directed by MTV Award-winning Robert Hales (Justin Timberlake, Gnarls Barkley, Kings of Leon.) “Can’t Be Tamed” is a self-empowering song in which Miley asserts that she has to stay true to herself in relationships, and it is sure to become an anthem among her legions of fans around the world. Miley has several high profile appearances this summer including Rock in Rio dates in Lisbon May 29 and Madrid June 6, Good Morning America’s Summer Concert Series in Central Park, Live! with Regis & Kelly June 18, and the Much Music Video Awards June 20 (Miley is co-hosting and performing on Much Music Video Awards).

ABC Gives Adam Lambert Another Chance

After a string of cancelled appearances by ABC following his performance at the American Music Awards, Adam Lambert has been given another chance.

Lambert tweeted, “Hey friends! I will be performing and hanging w the ladies of ABC’s The View Thursday the 10th!”

Lamberts appearance on the view comes after ABC cancelled his appearances on Good Morning America, Jimmy Kimmel Live, and the network’s New Year’s Eve Special.

Will you be tuning in to catch Adam on The View?

ABC Pulls Chris Brown “Good Morning America” Performance

ABC pulled the plug on controversial crooner Chris Brown’s performance Good Morning America next week.

Instead, Brown has agreed to “come clean” with the events leading up to his February attack on then-girlfriend Rihanna in a primetime interview with Robin Roberts, the network has revealed.

ABC was harshly criticized by gay and women’s rights advocates last week after it cancelled a performance by openly-gay former American Idol Adam Lambert on GMA — following his sex-charged performance on the American Music Awards–then announced plans to allow Chris — a convicted felon and woman beater to promote his latest CD with a live show on the program.

Chris is promising to give details of the incident in an “in-depth interview” with GMA host Robin Roberts set to air on 20/20 Dec. 11. His appearance comes just a month after Rihanna’s 20/20 interview with Diane Sawyer drew nearly 9 million viewers.

Chris Brown Tell All Interview Coming Soon To Good Morning America

Now that Rihanna has spoken, it’s Chris Brown’s turn to respond and Good Morning America has given Brown the opportunity in a tell all interview with Robin Roberts.

Brown sat down with ABC’s Robin Roberts for an interview that will air on Good Morning America the week after next according to the New York Post.

Brown will also be given the chance to perform a song from his new album, which will be in stores Dec. 8th.

Can’t wait to hear what Brown has to say this time. So far, he’s still a douche…

Chris Brown To Premiere ‘Crawl’ Video This Week

Chris Brown is set to premiere the video to his ballad “Crawl,” the second single from his forthcoming album Graffiti, this Friday during an appearance on “The Wendy Williams Show.” It was also announced on Monday (November 9) that Brown is due to appear on BET’s “106 & Park” this week, and appear and perform on “Good Morning America” next month.

The Joseph Kahn-directed clip for “Crawl” will feature Bad Boy recording artist Cassie as Brown’s love interest. The song’s lyrics seem to address Brown’s situation with Rihanna.

Kahn spoke with MTV News recently and said the video is “probably the most personal thing [Brown's] ever done.”

“I mean, everything that’s happened to him in the year, I think this is going to be his big statement, in terms of what he’s feeling and what he’s living through right now,” he said.

“It’s my first ballad with Chris, and it was easy,” he explained. “Again, it’s another idea that he clearly had, in terms of what the genesis of the idea is. I don’t even know if Chris is trying to say anything with the video. I think he just sort of, as an artist, I think Chris communicates more through what he does … and so what he does in the video will speak for itself.”

Graffiti was pushed up to a December 8 release date last week, and the lead single, “I Can Transform Ya,” currently rests at #24 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Rihanna Says Going Back To Chris Brown After Beating Sent “Wrong Message”

In her first television interview since being assaulted by former flame Chris Brown, pop princess Rihanna says it was “”wrong” of her to take the crooner back.

“That’s embarrassing that that’s the type of person that I fell in love with,” the singer told Diane Sawyer on ABC’s Good Morning America Thursday. “So far in love. So unconditional that I went back. It’s humiliating to say this happened. To accept that? It’s a traumatizing experience.”

During the interview, she confirmed that Brown, 20, held her in a headlock twice and bit her on the ear and fingers the night before the 2009 Grammys last February. The attack occurred in Los Angeles’ Hancock Park neighborhood as Brown drove a rented sports car.

“I stayed. I even went back after he beat me, which was wrong,” Rihanna said. “It’s completely normal to go back. You start lying to yourself…I’ll say that to any young girl who is going through domestic violence: ‘Don’t react off of love.’”

Rihanna, 21, also hinted that it may have taken “eight or nine attempts” before she could finally leave the relationship.

“It’s pretty easy to go back….When I realized that my selfish decision for love could result in some young girl getting killed, I could not be easy with that part,” she says. “I couldn’t be responsible for that. Even if Chris never hit me again, who’s to say their boyfriend won’t? Who’s to say they won’t kill these girls? I didn’t realize how much of an impact I had on these girls’ lives until that happened.”

ABC will air more chunks of the interview on Friday’s GMA. The interview will air in its entirety Friday evening on 20/20.

Rihanna On The Cover Of Glamour Magazine

Rihanna’s looking great on the cover of Glamour Magazine. She looks happy and confident despite the obstacles she’s recently faced thanks to that douche bag, Chris Brown.

In an interview, which you can find inside the issue of Glamour, Rihanna says, “I went to sleep as Rihanna and woke up as Britney Spears…That was the level of media chaos that happened the next day. The positive thing that has come out of my situation is that people can learn from that. I want to give as much insight as I can to young women, because I feel like I represent a voice that really isn’t heard.”

Rihanna will be honored — alongside literary legend Maya Angelou and comedian Amy Poehler — at the annual Glamour Women of the Year event in New York City on Monday, Nov. 9.
