leighton's leakage
now that leighton meester is back to shooting the new season of gossip girl, she's taking time off of her burgeoning music career. but, to remind us that she is, in fact, a singer, someone leaked a new track - "body control" - onto the internets. it seems like leighton is going gaga - and i mean that she's taking some inspiration from lady gaga. the song is a fast paced, radio friendly, dance track with plenty of synth beats, much like the material lady g included on her debut album, the fame. it sounds like it could have come right out of the 80s. no word on whether or not this is an official single or just a demo, but either way it's a going to get stuck in your head after you listen to it. you're welcome. or not. check out the song above.

diablo's back
if you were a fan of 2007's juno, then you might be in for a treat come september. diablo cody, who wrote juno, is back with her second film, jennifer's body. out september 18th, the film follows a mean girl/cheerleader (megan fox as jennifer) who is possessed by a demon to destroy all that is evil. sadly, all that is evil entails almost every boy in the girl's high school. when her nerdy friend, needy (played by mamma mia's amanda seyfriend), discovers jennifer's secret she has to battle back, tracking down the demon's source. sounds like some heavy stuff right? well, after watching the preview, it's not that bad. the dialogue appears to have diablo's trademark wit - more of a dark comedy vibe than a slasher film. in fact, the movie has already been compared to one of my favorite flicks, heathers. check it out for yourself above.
