Jolin Tsai’s new album comes with 3 preorder gifts

Sold separately of course!

Jolin Tsai’s new album is now officially titled Myself after much controversy surrounding the ones previously announced. It started off with “Vogue” before being changed to “Vogueing”, which was heavily criticized for spelling the word with an extra “e”. Warner Music defended the term and said it derived from “Vogue” + “ing”, as in it’s “happening now”. Regardless of voguing or vogueing, they found out the word “Vogue” was already registered, so the title was changed (yet again) to avoid possible infringement issues.



Jolin is known for creating hot topics every time she releases a new album, but contrary to the past, her record company has revealed very little information up to this point. They only announced that her first single “Honey Trap (美人計)” will feature a “Voguing” style dance routine, which was choreographed by famous dance instructors Ahn Hyung Suk and Benjamin Ninja.

Angelina Jolie on Brad Pitt: We Have Each Other's Backs

Yes, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt can work a red carpet like no other star couple. But at home with six kids all under the age of 9, the pair are content just to be Mom and Dad.

"Brad's an extraordinary father," Jolie, 35, tells PEOPLE in this week's issue. "We have each other's backs."

The teamwork of the actress and Pitt, 46, comes in handy when dealing with settling differences between kids Maddox, 8, Pax, 6, Zahara, 5, Shiloh, 4, and 2-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne, says Jolie.

"They can't go behind one [parent] to the other,” she says. "Not one of us is softer than the other."

The actress, whose new political thriller Salt opens Friday, also talks about tackling her own stunts in the film. "I happen to like heights, so we found moments where I can use that," she says.

One thing that does scare her: the idea of her kids becoming teenagers.

"I break out into a sweat at just the thought."

Jennifer Aniston looks bow-tiful as she launches debut perfume at Harrods in pretty nude dress


Cheerio!

Fans got a glimpse -- and a pleasant sniff -- of Jennifer Aniston in London on Wednesday. The 41-year-old star stopped by the British capital's famed Harrods department store to launch her very first fragrance, now called Jennifer Aniston.

(When the Falic Group scent was announced earlier this year, its name was "Lolavie," which roughly translates to "laughing at life" in French; of the name change, an insider explains to Us that "the market was getting confused with 'Lolavie' and Marc Jacobs' scent 'Lola.'"

Microsoft confirms Windows Phone 7 launch partners: HTC, Samsung, LG, Dell and Asus

We kind of already knew which hardware manufacturers plan to be the first to release Windows Phone 7 devices, but it’s good to see a confirmation from Microsoft.


Greg Sullivan, the company’s senior product manager, has recently talked to Pocket-lint, saying that HTC, Samsung, LG, Dell and Asus will all have WP7 handsets at launch.

Some of the handsets available on day one could be the LG Panther (pictured below), Dell Lightning, HTC Mondrian and HTC Mozart.

Mr. Sullivan also mentioned something about an LG Pacific – but it’s not clear if this is a completely new WP7 handset from the South Korean company, or just the Panther under a different name.

Now 55% Of Androids Eating Eclair

According to Google, the distribution of smartphones running Android 2.1 Eclair has reached 55%. Is anyone out there using Android 2.2 Froyo yet?


Google has offered up another report on Android's current level of fragmentation. Android 2.1 Eclair now accounts for 55.5% of all Android devices, which is up by 4% when compared to last month.

Android 1.6 Donut users now account for 22.1% of Android handsets and Android 1.5 Cupcake users account for 18.9%. Each has dropped a bit since last month, when 25% were still using Android 1.6 and 24.6% were using Android 1.5. In May, the numbers were 37.2% for Android 2.1, 28% for 1.6, and 34.1% for 1.5.

Perhaps the most interesting metric to come from Google's latest report is that 3.3% of Android handsets are now using Android 2.2 Froyo. Google has so far only distributed Android 2.2 Froyo to the Nexus One handset. Google has also made the code and associated SDK available to developers.

Lee Hom accused of being difficult

Producer of a Chinese variety show accused the star of being snobbish and changing his script at will

Singer-actor Lee Hom was in China promoting his new movie Love In Disguise when a producer accused the star of being snobbish.

According to reports, Lee Hom went on a talk-show together with the cast to promote his movie.

While the atmosphere on set was friendly and filled with laughter, the producer of the talk-show later posted a message on his weibo (Chinese equivalent of Twitter) implying that Lee Hom was picking on the script and being difficult.

"You are a new director and I respect your passion for your work. However, I do not agree with the rudeness you showed by casting the script aside."

Audience who were at the filming set that day immediately put up their own videos to rebuke the producer's claims.

What could be the reason for Big Bang & 2NE1′s success, as observed by Se7en?


On the 20th, Se7en held a comeback party at a club in Seoul, where afterwards, he met with news reporters where he discussed his juniors, Big Bang and 2NE1. He stated “Since within each group, each member has their own area and personality, they’re ensuring their survival.”, “They seem to express everything well, from their teamwork and musical personality, and fashion. As their senior, I’m really proud of them”, and laughed.

Yang Hyeonsuk, YG Entertainment representative who was also at the location had said “Big Bang and 2NE1 are really uncomfortable with Se7en.”, “When they were trainees, Se7en was a top star and on top of that had charisma to begin with. I’m most afraid of G-Dragon in this world but the person who G-Dragon is the most afraid of is Se7en.”

At one point, he was the YG magnae, but now he has become the eldest hyung – Se7en said “I feel good. Back then, I was busy while following people around, but now, there’s a lot of dongsaengs(younger close friends) following me around.”

Bad-hair Britney Spears shows off frightful ratty extensions and stringy looking locks

Britney Spears is in desperate need of some TLC from a stylist.

The singer was spotted out shopping in Sherman Oaks, California yesterday and she looked as if she had been dragged through a hedge backwards.


Spears' stringy yellow hair looked over processed and damaged, and when the 28-year-old turned around her matted hair extensions and ginger scalp were clearly visible.

Spears, dressed in a tangerine coloured vest, beige shorts and brown ankle boots tried to minimize her hair disaster by tying it up in a top knot. But nothing could fully remedy the situation.
