Exclusive: Drake Has A 'Good' Feeling About Justin Bieber Collabo
Toronto MC talks up the Believe track 'Right Here' and details his plans to hit the studio after his Club Paradise Tour.
By Rob Markman, with reporting by Sway Calloway
<P><a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/drake/artist.jhtml">Drake</a> has a jam-packed schedule taking his <a href="/news/articles/1681570/drake-j-cole-waka-flocka-club-paradise-tour.jhtml">Club Paradise Tour</a> city to city, but the Toronto rap star still manages to find time to record, especially since he has a studio on his tour bus. Right after Club Paradise's last show in Boston, Massachusetts, Drizzy will begin recording new music, possibly for his next album.</P><P>"I'm really excited to start working on new music. I start like June 18," Drake told MTV News correspondent Sway Calloway when the two met backstage in <a href="/news/articles/1685366/drake-club-paradise-houston.jhtml">Houston</a> on May 17.</P><P></p><div class="player-placeholder right" title="Drake Has Been Working On New Music With 40, Hit-Boy And Justin Bieber" id="vid:782382" width="415" height="255"></div><p></P><P>"I got a studio bus out here so me and 40 started working on a couple joints the other night. Just getting warmed up," he continued. "I did like the 'Amen' track for Meek [Mill] and I did 'No Lie' for 2Chainz."</P><P>Fans have already raved over Drizzy's performance on both <a href="http://rapfix.mtv.com/2012/05/01/2-chainz-no-lie-drake-based-tru-story/">"No Lie"</a> and "Amen," which appears on the Philadelphia MC's recently released <a href="/news/articles/1684645/meek-mill-dream-chasers-2-mixtape.jhtml"><i>Dream Chasers 2</i> mixtape</a>. Still, the Young Money star has a few more collaborations that fans will hear in the coming weeks, one of them being French Montana's "Pop That."</P><P>"I'm on French Montana's single; me, him, Ross and Wayne, which is a crazy lineup," Drake said. "And then on <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/bieber_justin/artist.jhtml">Justin Bieber</a>'s record. I wrote a song for him as well."</P><P>At the time of the interview, Drake wasn't sure of the name of the Bieber record or if the song would even be included on Justin's upcoming <i>Believe</i> LP. "Awkward Justin Bieber moment," Drizzy joked after pondering the very slim chance that he wouldn't make the final cut. "Yeah, we'll see. It's a good song though; produced by Hit-Boy."</P><P>Well, Drake doesn't have to worry. On Monday, the Biebs unveiled his <a href="/news/articles/1685471/justin-bieber-believe-track-list.jhtml"><i>Believe</i> track list</a>, and his fellow Canadian does appear on the song "Right Here." We have no reason to doubt Drake's word about "Right Here," but we'll all will just have to wait until June 19 when <i>Believe</i> is released to finally hear it.</P><P><i>Are you excited to hear Justin and Drake's "Right Here"? Tell us in the comments</i></p>

MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND RECAP: YBF Celebs PARTY IT UP In Atlantic City...And Beyonce HINTS at New Album
Celebs flocked to Atlantic City this Memorial Day weekend to see Beyonce make her big BACK TO BUSINESS return to the stage. And to do a little work, party it up and hit the beaches. We've got how Jennifer Hudson, Bey (of course), Luke James, Christina Milian & Kevin Hart spent their fab Holiday weekend inside...
Jennifer Hudson rocked a casual and cute black/yellow look to hit up Beyonce's last concert Monday night at the Revel Resort and Casino (a RIDICULOUSLY fab place by the way) in Atlantic City, NJ. Somebody looked happy to be out and about for the Holiday. And she tweeted about her former Dreamgirls co-star Queen Bey saying:
Omg best memorial day ever ! Glad I spent it at @Revelresorts at queen B concert ! Flawless!!
Sweet! Looking great Jenny!
And speaking of the woman of the weekend--Beyonce gave four flawless theatrical performances throughout four nights for her big return to the stage. The 30-year old isn't stopping there either. She told Sunday night's crowd (and we heard it with our own ears) she's back in the lab working on new music. Toward the end of the concert, she asked the crowd what they wanted to hear because she's ready to get back into the studio:
"What do y'all want? Y'all want to dance?! You want some ballads? A little rock & roll? Soul? How about I just do it all!"
We won't be complaining. She also told various audiences that she lost 60 pounds of post-baby weight recently by eating a strict diet (lots of lettuce) and lots of working out. And for a chick who performed--hard--for over 2 hours straight, with no intermission and only a couple minutes for costume changes, she couldn't help but melt off the baby weight. Chick looked simply fabulous this weekend.
By the way, First Lady Michelle Obama, who attended one of Bey's concerts this weekend, said on "Good Morning America" this mon:
“Anybody who’s got talent, I’m all for. But Beyoncé has just been a tremendous supporter of ‘Let’s Move!’ Without asking, she reformulated ['Get Me Bodied'] to do a flash mob for kids across this country.”
“Beyoncé stepped up in a way that so many of our celebrities and athletes are stepping up on behalf of this issue, so I love her to death and was glad to be out there moving my body with her."
Meanwhile, Beyonce's opening act--up and coming singer Luke James--was spotted partying it up inside Revel's Ultra Lounge:
The "I Want You" singer revealed that he was more than ecstatic to be tapped as her opener. And if you haven't heard him sing yet, get with it.
Elsewhere in Atlantic City, Christina Milian partied at The Pool After Dark at Harrah's Resort with Kim K. (not pictured):
Had this been anybody else, the outfit would have looked cheap. But we can't help but love cutie Chris.
And Kevin Hart, who performed at the Taj Mahal in Atlantic City Sunday night, tweeted his plaque after getting awarded on stage the Key to the City by the city's mayor, Lorenzo Langford.
And he tweeted how much fun he was having with his "rib" (as he called her) Oniko at Mrs. Carter's Saturday concert saying:
I'm watching Beyonce perform and I am speechless right now........her performance and production is amazing!!!! Woooooooow
Atlantic City nights with my RIB @Neekibaby
Loves it!

WHAT'S BEEF: Did Chris Brown GET PISSY With Meek Mill OVER Rihanna? + Was Chris LASHING Out At Raz B For "ALLEGEDLY" Saying He's Gay?
Chris Brown is involved in a few beefs with other industry artists right now. Get the deets on what's going on between him and Meek Mill and Raz B!
The word on the street is that Meek Mill got his verse on Chris Brown's "Don't Judge Me" dropped from the Fortune disc because Chris got pissy that Meek was hanging with Rihanna at a strip club.
Chris wasn't too pleased that Rihanna stopped by Meek Mill's party at Club Perfections last month so he bumped Meek off the disc. Over the weekend, Meek tweeted,
We shall see how this one play's out. But you know how pissy Chris can be......
And in other Chris beefs..........
Former B2K member Raz B has allegedly written a book called This Boy's Life. We say allegedly because we have not been able to verify existence of the book with the publishing company or Raz B's reps. But rumor has it that the book features explosive allegations about former B2K members (Omarion, Lil' Fizz, J Boog), Bow Wow, Ray J, Chris Stokes and Chris Brown all being gay.
On Chris the book says,
“They say you never know who knows who. Chris Brown didn’t think about that when he attacked me online. I have a friend that’s very close to Chris’ camp who told me that Chris was involved with an up and coming songwriter Andre Merritt. So when Chris started going in calling people ‘gay’ and ‘fags’ I just dropped Andre Merritt’s name. I knew it was true when he decided to shut up.”
Chris responded (his tweets were later deleted) to the alleged book saying,
If this book ever hits shelves, the fallout could be very interesting. We'll keep you posted.
Captain America
Go see Captain America this weekend! Support our Colin!
I went to the premiere on Tuesday and it was the coolest thing ever. First, the movie is AMAZING and Chris Evans is a superstar. Second, there were so many damn people there it was insane. I have been to movie premieres in New York before and they were nothing like this. I mean, they closed down Hollywood Boulevard. I would've taken photos to show you, but the invite said to leave phones in the car. But here's a photo of me in my cool Captain America 3D glasses:
(Sit down, stop jumping around, it's an awesome picture, I know. And the quality is amazing. It's not grainy or reddish... it's perfect.) (No, it's not.)
(And you can totally see the Captain America logo on the side of the glasses.) (No, you can't.)
Anyway, Captain America is pulling a strong 71% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes right now so GO SEE IT! IT'S FANTASTIC!

Michael Jackson To Appear On Pepsi Cans
More than one billion cans will be imprinted with the late pop icon's image.
By Gil Kaufman
<P>More than three years after <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/jackson_michael/artist.jhtml">Michael Jackson's</a> <a href="/news/articles/1614744/michael-jackson-dies-at-50.jhtml">death</a>
, the pop icon will be at the beach, the pool, the 7-Eleven and everywhere in between this summer thanks to a new deal with PepsiCo.</P><P>According to <a href="http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702304746604577381792902984470.html?KEYWORDS=pepsi" target="_blank"><I>The Wall Street Journal</I></a> the #2 soda company is going back to the future with a massive campaign that will have Jackson's image imprinted on more than one billion cans of soda as part of its new global "Live For Now" marketing push.</P><P></p><div class="player-placeholder right" title="Remembering Michael Jackson - One Year Later" id="id:1642144" width="415" height="255"></div><p></P><P>Nearly 30 years after Jackson first agreed to be the voice of the brand, an agreement has been reached with Jackson's estate, though reps for both sides declined to disclose the financial terms of the deal. When Jackson signed on to shill Pepsi in 1984 he was paid a then-record $5 million. A representative for the estate said the PepsiCo campaign is the first branding deal executed since Jackson died in 2009 at the age of 50.</P><P>While Jackson was handsomely paid in the 1984 deal, it was during the filming of an ad for that sponsorship that his life was forever altered. While shooting a commercial for Pepsi, a pyro effect went wrong and Jackson's hair caught fire, seriously burning his face and scalp and requiring multiple skin grafts and resulting in intense pain. It has been speculated that Jackson's addiction to pain medications may have begun after the mishap.</P><P>The new campaign is timed to coincide with the 25th anniversary of Jackson's <I>Bad</I> album. PepsiCo will start distributing the special-edition cans in China this weekend and they will arrive in the U.S. later this month. The 16-ounce, collector's-edition can in the U.S. will feature a special download code that will link to downloads of <I>Bad</I> remixes. Though TV ads will debut in China later this month, it has not been determined yet if similar spots will air in the U.S.</P><P><a href="http://www.mtv.com/photos/?fid=1617615"><img src="http://www.mtv.com/news/photos/s/spotted/banner/spotted.jpg"></a></p>

'American Idol' Finale Ratings Plummet
While Phillip Phillips' win drew a record 132 million votes, ratings were down 30 percent.

It was the best of times and the worst of times for "American Idol" this week. Yes, a record 132 million votes came in on Tuesday night to help Phillip Phillips take home the top prize. But when the ratings for the finale were tallied up, well, nobody was popping corks or firing up the confetti cannons anymore.
Ponder this: Ratings for the season 11 finale were half of what they were during the 2003 season when Ruben Studdard and Clay Aiken duked it out in front of 38 million viewers. Half is still 21.5 million, but that number is way down (27 percent) from the 29.3 million who saw Scotty McCreery take home the crown last year.
In fact, according to final Nielsen Co. figures, Wednesday night's "Idol" viewership is the smallest ever for the show's finale. Not only was the tune-in number an all-time low, but the show's 6.4 rating among the coveted adults 18-49 demographic was down 30 percent from last year as well.
"Idol" can take some solace in easily beating the finale ratings for such up-and-coming rivals as "The Voice" (11.93 million viewers, 4.4 rating) and "X Factor" (12.59 million viewers, 3.8 rating). The ratings decline this year was expected, since season 10 got a bit of a boost when Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler were added into the mix following the departure of former lead judge Simon Cowell.
Though it came into the season with the bragging rights as the #1 show on TV, "Idol" shed nearly 25 percent of its audience this year, falling below 20 million viewers for the first time since 2003. According to reports, the steepest drop-off was among viewers 18-49, the most sought-after demographic among networks.
The other shoe to drop on Thursday was that for the first time in eight years, "Idol" will not finish the season as the top-rated primetime program. According to The Hollywood Reporter, NBC's "Sunday Night Football" finished the 2011-2012 season as the dominant primetime program in total viewers and in all key audience demographics. "Football" averaged 20.7 million viewers this season and an 8.0 rating in the 28-49 demo.
The Wednesday night "Idol" performance broadcasts averaged 19.7 million viewers and 18.3 million on Thursday for the season, along with a 6.2 rating on Wednesday's.
