Miley Cyrus, Liam Hemsworth and director Adam Shankman give you a behind the scenes look at the video for her song “When I Look At You” from the movie soundtrack to The Last Song. What do you think of the song?

Attending the London premiere of Alice In Wonderland, singer Avril Lavigne took to the rainy night’s green carpet in a beautiful black gown and diamond necklace.

Contributing to the soundtrack her song “Alice” will play over the end credits of the film. Lavigne will stop by The Tonight Show on March 3rd as Jay Leno takes back the hosting chair.

While Miley Cyrus is enjoying herself in Paris with Liam Hemsworth, the Hannah Montana star just got wind that her song ‘The Climb’ will not be up for a Grammy in the category of Best Song Written for a Soundtrack. The reason? It was never commissioned and written for that soundtrack specifically. The tune’s songwriter, Jessi Alexander, had shopped it to other artists before Cyrus and Disney grabbed it up. Competition rules are that the song must be written for the soundtrack to the movie it is nominated for. Alexander feels that substantial changes were made to the first version of the song she had written to make it work for the Hannah Montana soundtrack and therefore it should fit the guidelines. The execs at Disney did not see it that way and yanked it before NARAS (The National Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences - The Grammy’s) made it’s final call. Alexander is understandably disappointed in the big D’s decision and says:

“You can look at it a million ways. And I’m sure they wouldn’t do this if there wasn’t a true belief that it wasn’t eligible. To be honest, it’s devastating.”

Unfortunately for her, it is already decided that ‘The Climb’ will be replaced by Karen O’s ‘All in Love’ from Where The Wild Things Are. What do you think? Fair? or is everyone out to get Miley?

This sounds like a fantastic soundtrack - very well put together. What do you think?

Here is the first look at Death Cab For Cutie’s official music video for the song “Meet Me On The Equinox” from the “New Moon” soundtrack (check complete track list here).

In the upcoming issue of Mexican Joy Magazine, actor Robert Pattinson spoke openly about his life since landing the role of Edward Cullen in The Twilight Saga and his passion for music and a possible song or two for ‘Eclipse.’ He says he’d like to contribute if time allows. We are all waiting to hear more of his music.

Robert is the perfect example of what the media and fame are capable of doing. It’s a huge stroke of luck, brutal and well-aimed that all of a sudden launches you to the highest peak of worldwide attention, away from good and evil. Something very tempting and rare.
“I wasn’t expecting having this much success. It’s something I still can’t understand. The truth is that in certain occasions I feel dizzy and I still don’t know how to handle so much attention” he expresses, in a very shy voice, almost like a whisper, as if he was telling us a secret. His eyes, so clear they’re almost transparent, stare attentively at us and distract us. It’s not easy resisting his charms! His honesty wins us over though, because far from finding a male diva, we discover, little by little a sensitive man. Warm and charming. We don’t hesitate in sharing with him what we really think: luck, yes, it’s fundamental, but if it doesn’t come hand in hand with talent and magic, everything remains just an anecdote. Robert smiles, he likes the idea. For now he knows that in talent he has exceeded expectations but he worries that he might not be up to the hype and the phenomenon that he’s become. It’s clear to us; charisma is authentic. And after this interview, there’s no doubts about it.

Last time we saw you, Twilight was about to be released and you said you didn’t know what to expect of the movie, and that everybody was looking forward to it. After all the success and box office numbers, how do you feel?
It’s very strange. I can say that everything has happened very fast. Like I’m fast-forwarding through life. Like everything around me is happening at 1000 m/p. The way you fast-forward a movie, just like that. I never thought the movie would cause such a stir. Seeing girls screaming around me is so bizarre. Sometimes I can’t believe is all about me. It’s like I’m living inside a movie, but I wake up and it’s all real. I see that it’s real and how much my life has changed. I still don’t know in which ways my life has changed, I’m still figuring that out. And I don’t know why but I think it’s going to take me a long time to figure it out. I guess it’s normal, don’t you think?

Anya Marina is one of the artists included on the upcoming soundtrack for The Twilight Saga: New Moon. Her song ‘Satellite Heart’ (listen to the song here) is a haunting tune that will be featured in the movie to Marina’s favorite scene. Here is what the songstress had to say about being included soundtrack:

A few months ago, I was asked by Chris Weitz (the director of the new Twilight movie (New Moon) to come in to his office to screen the latest Twilight movie, New Moon. I guess he’d heard my cover of T.I.’s “Whatever You Like” and really liked it. Naturally, I was thrilled. I heard all sorts of my favorite bands were being considered for the soundtrack (Thom Yorke, Death Cab, Grizzly Bear, etc). In fact, on the day of my own private screening, as I walked in, The Killers were making their way out.

oh.

em.

gee.

Suffice it to say, the movie was great and I got really inspired to adapt a new song I’d been working on to suit Bella and Edward and their whole drama. I got together with my friend, producer [and mixer on Slow & Steady...] Ken Andrews, and we recorded a pretty mean version of a new song called “Satellite Heart.”

When I heard that Chris decided not only to include Satellite Heart in my favorite scene in New Moon, but also in the soundtrack, I was–pardon the pun–over the moon. I can’t wait to see it in the movie or for you to hear some of the straight-up sick remixes that’ll be coming out soon, too. For now, stream the song (and check out the lyrics) on MySpace, and then pre-order the soundtrack through iTunes to be able to download ‘Satellite Heart’ instantly.

Enjoy. See you in November!

Here is the official video for Demi Lovato’s song ‘Gift Of A Friend.’ From her album Here We Go Again, the tune is also featured on the DVD animated movie of Tinkerbell and The Lost Treasure from Walt Disney.

Death Cab for Cutie has just scored a nice bit of publicity and been added to the soundtrack for The Twilight Saga: New Moon. Their song ‘Meet Me on the Equinox’ has been chosen to be the first single released from the upcoming CD and it will get it’s debut on MTV.com on September 19th - coinciding with MTV’s VMA’s.

“I think that a lot of our songs in general concern a lot of the things the main characters in the books are going through: There’s a lot of stuff about relationships beginning and ending, and the questioning that happens around being in love and falling out of love,” bassist Nick Harmer told MTV News in a recent interview.

In addition to Death Cab, Thom Yorke of Radiohead and Muse have been announced for the movie soundtrack which is out October 20th. The official cover art (we’ve seen this before…) is above.

I just want to say thank god I don’t have to sit through hours of another lame MTV awards show crap to hear the song. So happy it will premiere on the web.

Miranda Cosgrove is lending her singing talents to the upcoming animated movie Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs. The star of Nickelodeon’s super popular iCarly, will perform the closing song “Raining Sunshine” for the film due in theaters September 18th.

Commenting on the announcement, Lia Vollack, president, Worldwide Music, Sony Pictures Entertainment, said, “We couldn’t be more excited by the song Miranda has recorded for Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs. She’s an amazing artist who brings her smart, fresh style to our film with the song, ‘Raining Sunshine,’ in our end-title sequence.”

Cosgrove will also be the voice of Margo in the animated film Despicable Me out in 2010.
