Black Eyed Peas to Return
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Gossip, Reunions, Rumors, Upcoming Releases, Hip-Hop & Rap, R&B / Soul,
Black Eyed Peas are set to return next year.
The "I Gotta Feeling" group - will.i.am, Fergie, apl.de.ap and Taboo - are getting back together for their first studio album and tour since The Beginning in 2010. "The Black Eyed Peas are all in agreement they should put a new tour on for the fans - it's not like they properly split when they parted for a hiatus in 2012. This time around they're going to head back into the studio and lay down a new album quickly and then hit the road once again. Will.i.am has been instrumental in persuading all the Peas to get back into shape and hit the road again," a source said.
The source says new mother Fergie - who has five-month-old son Axl Jack with her husband Josh Duhamel - has been holding the process up. "Fergie's been stalling and wants to hold out for as much money as she can guarantee. She's got a baby now and needs it to be a very worthy amount to make her take her baby on the road," the insider added.

will.i.am to release 14 megapixel iPhone camera attachment
Posted by John Kilhefner Categories: Accessories, Apple, Cameras,
Will.i.am of Black Eyed Peas fame apparently doesn't think his iPhone is smart enough, so he's planning to do something about it. He's even received a development license from Apple to produce and sell what he claims will turn the iPhone into a "genius phone" under his new i.am+ brand.
We have our own sensor and a better flash. You dock your phone into our device and it turns your smartphone into a genius-phone. We take over the camera...
"I was just hanging out [after a photo shoot], and one of the models took an iPhone picture, which circulated the planet before the shoot was even over... I took one of the photographer's lenses and held it up on my [phone] and said "imagine this one day". Then I said: "I'm going to do this"."
The camera attachment will clips onto the iPhone, bumping the 8 megapixel camera to 14 megapixels. A website is currently being produced (www.i.am) where users will be able to create profiles and assumedly share pictures and other content created with Will.i.am's app.
I.am+ is scheduled to make it's debut in London later this week, where pricing will also be announced.

Hip hop and pop performer, producer, Grammy-winner, and all-around mogul Will.i.am is set to premiere his new track tomorrow, but Earthlings won't be able to enjoy it. Why? Well, Will.i.am is debuting his new song "Reach for the Stars" on Mars. Wait, what?
No, seriously. The music will be piped through the Mars Curiosity Rover before debuting here on our humble, overrated planet. What's the over/under on Martians being discovered when they seek out Curiosity, destroying it to stop the insipid music? Tonight's gonna be a good night.

-I’m in shock. I need the police ASAP. Please come to the SoHo Metropolitan Hotel now. Please.
-I was assaulted by Will.I.Am of the Black Eyed Peas and his security guards. I am bleeding. Please, I need to file a police report. No joke.
-Still waiting for the police. The bleeding has stopped. I need to document this. Please, can the police come to the SoHo Met Hotel.
-I spoke to my lawyer. I really need to talk to the authorities. Please come to the SoHo Met Hotel. Have called the police. Need them here.

UPDATE: Two more names have since been added to the bottom of the list.
Back in October, we reported that a spinoff of the X-Men series was in the works. The prequel, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, would explore the beginnings of Hugh Jackman’s storyline 17 years before the first movie took place.
Now four months later, we are getting a picture of how the rest of the cast is filling out. It was originally rumored that Liev Schreiber would be playing a younger version of William Stryker (the role Brian Cox filled in X2). That role actually belongs to Danny Huston (30 Days of Night). But Schreiber will still have a presence in the film; he is now set to star as Victor Creed (a.k.a Sabretooth).
Here’s a list of the actors currently joining slated to join Jackman:
- Lynn Collins (The Number 23): Kayla Silverfox
- Danny Huston (The Kingdom): William Stryker
- Taylor Kitsch (Friday Night Lights) Gambit
- Ryan Reynolds (Definitely, Maybe): Deadpool
- Liev Schrieber (The Painted Veil) : Victor Creed/Sabretooth
- will.i.am (Black Eyed Peas singer): Wraith
- Dominic Monaghan (Lost): Barnell
- Daniel Henney (My Name Is Kim Sam-soon): Agent Zero
The film is still scheduled for a May 1, 2009 release.
