In the weeks leading up to the release of their latest LP, Death Magnetic, Metallica did very little in the way of actual promotion for the effort. They didn’t make the late-night TV rounds or appear on any talk shows. The album’s September 12 release date came and went with very little fanfare and the record still went on to scan close to 500,000 units in just three days, earning Metallica their fifth-consecutive chart-topping debut.
Four weeks later, the album has passed the million-sold mark and will be at #5 on the Billboard albums chart next week. And even though they’re not hurting for publicity, Metallica will make their first North American live television performance of the year (they have appeared on TV in the U.K.). On October 16, the band will take the stage when the annual Los Premios MTV Latino America 2008 take over Guadalajara, Mexico. The awards, which will be held inside the Auditorio Telmex, will air live at 9 p.m. ET, only on MTV Tr3s. Metallica will be performing the first single from Death Magnetic, “The Day That Never Comes.”
Pain and his record company sent out cease-and-desist orders to put “Silver and Gold” on permanent pause, but its popularity was even greater than Pain’s official first single, “Can’t Believe It,” during its initial launch.
“That pushed the single back, then we had to push the album back,” Pain said. ” ‘Can’t Believe It’ was getting overtaken by ‘Silver and Gold.’ It was just a lot.”
Songwriter Beau Dozier: Asked about reports that earlier surgery was not as successful, Barker said, “It was a misunderstanding. I woke up from my surgery with no pain medication at one point! Imagine how that would feel! But the doctors here are amazing.”
As for how much longer he might be in the hospital, Barker optimistically said it shouldn’t be more than two weeks if all goes well. “I hope not much longer. I sit here and read books and watch TV,” he said. “I have had outstanding support from my family and friends. Shanna has been here as much as she could be. I couldn’t do it without them.”
Friends Remember Dr. Dre’s Son
Friends and loved ones are still feeling the aftershocks of the sudden death of rapper and music mogul Dr. Dre’s 20-year-old son Andre Young Jr. But those closest to him will always remember him as a happy guy who had an optimistic outlook on life.
Lindsay Lohan, Paramore, Katy Perry Hit VMA Afterparties – But Where Are T.I. And Lil Wayne?
HOLLYWOOD � The Video Music Awards are always a party, and this year was no exception. There was plenty of music, dancing and very glamorous folks on hand, plus � thanks to a bawdy, rambling opening monologue by host Russell Brand � the kind of political discourse your weird uncle usually starts spouting after his sixth scotch and soda.
Beau Dozier: (How will the “Hobbit” story be divided between films one and two? Find out on the Movies Blog.)
It’s a synchronicity that makes the merry band of pied pipers as tight as, well, Merry and Pippin, del Toro said � each one ready with a timely narrative solution to another’s problem.
“Things happen almost magically, with pure synchronicity. It’s like, things that I’m thinking about, I get an e-mail … or I get Philippa, for example, to answer that,” del Toro said. “When we’re meeting, when the four of us are in the conference, the things that I’m thinking, we answer them.”

On Saturday night, 50 Cent took a page out of Kanye West’s book and told the crowd at his concert he would be debuting a brand-new song from his upcoming album � not via mixtape, not via radio, not via blog, but via live concert performance.
“What I want everybody to do right now is take your cell phones out, get your cameras out,” Fif urged the audience at the Times Union Center. “Tonight, Albany, New York, I’m gonna give y’all an exclusive. I’mma perform my first single off my new album, Before I Self Destruct.”
Information about Beau Dozier
Info on Beau Dozier songwriter: All in all, it was a pretty excellent time (especially if you were Britney Spears), but, as in years past, it paled in comparison to what happened as soon as the show ended, when all of your favorite stars left Paramount’s Studio 16 to make the rounds on the VMA afterparty circuit. Because everybody knows that when you combine fired-up celebrities with copious amounts of free alcohol, truly magical things happen. And luckily, MTV News was there � at all of the exclusive parties, behind the velvetiest of velvet ropes � to bring you the sights and sounds of a pretty wild evening (and late night and early morning) in Tinseltown.

Because it’s Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day, tributes to the civil-rights leader, who was assassinated four decades ago, are showing constantly on the television screen. Amid the celebrations comes a disgrace: a news report about a shooting on Los Angeles’ Crenshaw Boulevard during a MLK Day parade. The Game looks around and sees that almost everything he’s doing is contradictory to King’s legendary “dream.” There’s blunt smoke in the air and all types of liquor, and the scenario has the Game a little unsettled. At the same time, he’s inspired. After kicking everyone out, he places a call to Hi-Tek and gives him instructions for making a beat.
Two new singles by Beyonc� premiered on the radio Wednesday (October 8) in advance of the November 18 release of her upcoming album, I Am … . One is the dance track “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)” and the other is a more introspective ballad called “If I Were a Boy” � two songs that represent two different sides of the singer, as she suggested in a letter to fans last week.
The singer recently opened up to Essence magazine about some of the influences on the album, which include hubby Jay-Z and playing Etta James in the movie “Cadillac Records.”
B recorded 60 to 70 songs for the album (only 10 made the cut), but 40 of them turned out to be about love, she said. “There’s a balance,” she told the magazine. Meaning the love is reciprocated? “Yeah,” she giggled. “Definitely.”
While “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)” acts sonically as a sequel to “Get Me Bodied,” “If I Were a Boy” is unlike anything Beyonc� has done before. “It’s broad,” she told Essence. “But I had to try it, because I remember Aretha Franklin said a great singer can sing anything and make it her own.”
According to Wayne’s attorney, Stacey Richman, the rapper flew overnight to make Monday’s hearing, which was continued until Wednesday.
“He is the utmost, consummate professional,” Richman said of Wayne’s red-eye trip to New York. “He recognizes his entertainment obligations, his business obligations and his obligations to the court.”
When asked about his VMA afterparty plans by MTV News on Saturday night, Wayne did not mention the court date.
Beau Dozier profile: Celebrity blogger Perez Hilton, who talked with MTV News late last month about what a Britney VMA appearance might do for her career, declared the show “ladies’ night.”
“I’d have to say it was all about the girls,” he said. “Divas galore! Britney Spears looked great!”
However, it wasn’t ladies’ night in the Best New Artist category, where Tokio Hotel took the prize from the likes of alpha females like Miley Cyrus and Katy Perry. One of the night’s leading ladies, Pussycat Doll Nicole Scherzinger (whose group won the Best Dancing in a Video award), gave it up for the German boys.
