American Idol runner-up Adam Lambert premiered his new single “For Your Entertainment” taken from his debut album by the same title, due November 23rd. The track was produced by Dr. Luke and the single cover is above. As for the track, we’re pretty sure that with the right promotion and a hot video, it will be a hit. It’s extremely commercial and like other works from Dr. Luke, the song is a metaphor for sex. Download it below (or take a listen above) and let us know what you think!

D/L: ADAM LAMBERT – FOR YOUR ENTERTAINMENT

Actors Samuel L. Jackson and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson were spotted on location in the Manhattan area of New York City filming scenes for their new movie, “The Other Guys” last Friday (Oct 23).

The action/comedy film, directed by Adam McKay, also stars Will Ferrell, Mark Wahlberg and Eva Mendes, and is expected to hit theaters sometime in August 2010.

PREMISE: Allen Gamble (Will Ferrell) and Terry Hoitz (Mark Wahlberg) are partnered NYPD detectives who work in the forensic accounting department and rarely see any action. Gamble is more than happy with his job while Hoitz has been assigned against his will after a public incident with his quick trigger finger. They idolize the city’s top cops Danson (Dwayne Johnson) and Manzetti (Samuel L. Jackson), but when an opportunity arises for Gamble and Hoitz to step up, things do not quite go as expected.

Actress Kerry Washington attended and spoke at the Music Unites Fall Masquerade Gala Thursday night (Oct 29) at the Alice Tully Hall inside the Lincoln Center in New York City. Indie rock singer/songwriter Santigold was also on hand at the event.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame celebrated its 25th anniversary Thursday night (Oct 27) at Madison Square Garden in New York City, and legendary entertainers Stevie Wonder and Smokey Robinson were on hand to perform in honor of the occasion. R&B singer/songwriter John Legend also attended the event and performed at the concert. Continue reading for the rest of the pictures from the event.

R&B singer Toni Braxton is gearing up for the release of her sixth studio album, which is set to hit stores on February 2nd 2010. And a video for the currently untitled album’s debut single, “Yesterday,” was shot earlier this month in Los Angeles by filmmaker Bille Woodruff, who also directed a couple of Toni’s old videos (”Unbreak My Heart” and “He Wasn’t Man Enough“)

The music video for “Yesterday” will feature cameo appearances from NBA ballers Ron Artest (pictured above) and Shannon Brown, both from the Los Angeles Lakers. The video is set to premiere sometime in November, but enjoy these video stills from her official website for now.

But he said some more stuff too… hear him out!

Joe Jackson and LaToya must sit around on the phone with reporters all day. And you know whenever Joe opens his mouth, bullsh*t is expected to come out. We know we can expect 3 things in life. Taxes, death and Joe Jackson saying (or doing) something off the wall (no pun intended).

But he said something in a recent interview that almost pissed us off … until we kept reading.

Michael Jackson’s dad tells Extra in an interview airing tonight that his son is making a bigger impact now than when he was alive. “He’s worth more dead than when he was alive,” Joe, 80, says. “I’d rather have him alive.”

Michael Jackson’s estate has reportedly raked in over $200 million this year alone, which forecasts the tons of cash that will come in over the next several years. And the “This Is It” world premiere brought in over $20 million Wednesday (Oct 28).

Joe also mentioned how he gets “very emotional” when he hears his son’s music.

“When I’m off to myself and I start thinking about things that we went through,” he says. “No one will ever see me, though.”

So we really can’t knock ol’ Joe. Everyone grieves in their own way. Some of us just grieve a little… weirder (?) than the rest of us :)
