Jennifer Lopez's highly anticipated new single featuring Pitbull was released yesterday. Entitled "Fresh Out The Oven" and produced by Pharell Williams, this is the first single off Lopez’s forthcoming album.  We caught up with Mr. 305 during the 2009 VMAs where he discussed his recent collabo with Jennifer Lopez, describing the track as "something very, very sexy" and the video as something reminiscent to the movie "Eyes Wide Shut." CALIENTE!

Lopez has not revealed her album title just yet but if yesterday’s online promotional launch of "Who is Lola" and new Twitter account is any revelation, then we have a feeling the album will be called "Lola," which is the new nickname Lopez has given herself.  Que, que?! Like Madonna's daughter? That’s right! According to sources, Jennifer Lopez will go by J.Lo no longer, self-titling herself Lola.  Doesn’t this remind you of someone? Perhaps of J.Lo's ex, Sean Combs, who's successfully made the transition from Puff Daddy to P. Diddy to just Diddy?  Or maybe of Beyonce and her alter-ego "Sasha Fierce"? Will Jennifer Lopez have the same success? I guess we have to wait and see…

Now without further ado, listen to Jennifer Lopez's new single featuring Pitbull and stay tuned for the release of the music video…

Looks like Kanye West better not even think of messing with Calle 13.


In response to Kanye's infamous interruption of Taylor Swift's speech at this year's VMA's, Calle 13 posted this on Twitter:

"Kanye West nunca me quitaría el microfono por que le rompa la cara de mamao que tiene. jejeje.. enserio. no es chiste."

Ouch! Them sounds like fighting words!!  We'll take Calle 13 on our side any day of the week!

Kanye West may be a jerk for interrupting 19-year-old Taylor Swift's VMA win, but it seems like even criticism from the President can't hold West down.

On Wednesday night, BET announced the nominees for their third annual Hip Hop Awards and Kanye leads the pack with 9 nods in categories like Best Hip-Hop Collabo, Best Live Performer, Lyricist of the Year, Producer of the Year, CD of the Year, MVP of the Year, Hustler of the Year, the Made-You-Look award (for style) and People's Champ.

Following Kanye with 7 nominations each are Jay-Z and Lil Wayne, and jailed T.I. received 6.

The 2009 BET Hip Hop Awards will be taped Oct. 10th in Atlanta and air Oct. 27, and we can't wait to see what Mr. West will do if he loses in any of the 9 categories he's nominated in. It's about to get interesting!

We cornered Pitbull as he arrived on the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards red carpet to get some extra spicy scoop on the fly.  One thing we picked up -- Mr. 305 is collaborating on "Lola," the first single off Jennifer Lopez's nuevo album, which was produced by Pharell Williams.  Pitbull told us that the pair had just finished shooting the music video.

What can we expect from the Pit-JLo connection?  Pitbull revealed the video will have an Eyes Wide Shut feel.  From the sound of it, este video is gonna be hot! (We have a feeling Pitbull agrees!)

The 2009 VMAs was chock full of good music, juicy drama and out-of-this-world fashion.

Janet Jackson's tributo a su hermano, Michael, was not only a really heartfelt memorial, but also featured some of the most renowned choreography in the history of MJ's illustrious career, with recreations of "Thriller," "Bad," "Smooth Criminal," and "Scream."  Lady Gaga’s performance was aún más loca de lo que esperábamos with its bloody grand finale, and  Jay-Z and Alicia Keys closed the show with a hoppin' rendition of  "Empire State of Mind."  In between there were performances by Beyoncé, Green Day, Taylor Swift, Katy Perry and Aerosmith’s Joe Perry -- as well as Wale and the numerous artists (como Pitbull! Latinos represent!) that joined him as the VMA house band.  Pink had arguably one of the best shows of the night when she performed from a flying trapeze!

Host Russell Brand kept the dirty jokes flying, Pop Queen Madonna paid tribute to the late King of Pop, and Kanye West did his best to steal the show but was promptly escorted out of the venue for another awards show outburst.  No nos sorprendió mucho!  Lady Gaga wowed with her ever-inventive vestuario, and even the Twilight cast showed up to show off the drama-filled trailer for 'New Moon.'

While Wisin y Yandel didn’t win for "Best Pop Video," Latin artists were definitely in the house!  Pitbull and Wale performed a hip-hop go-go version of "I Know You Want Me," and Mr. 305 made sure to give a big shout-out to all the Latinos!  Also representing at the show were Shakira, JLo and hubby Marc Anthony, "Blaxican" Pussycat Doll Melody Thornton, and honorary Latina Nelly Furtado who gave el Dúo Dinámico a nod during her presenter's speech.

So what did you guys think about this year's VMAs? Did it meet or exceed your expectations?

One of the best parts of every year's VMAs is the red carpet fashion.  Este año was certainly no exception!  From crazy avant-garde creations to high-fashion drama and a "who wore it better?" snafu, la alfombra roja kept us on our toes este año as we tried to spot our most and least favorite vestidos!

Algunos looks nos dejaron sin palabras...

While others left us with plenty to talk about!

One of the MOST talked-about fashion moments from last night's show?  (Other than the bewilderment at the latest Lady Gaga ensembles, por supuesto!)   The matching vestido fiasco between Shakira and Pink!  Las cantantes showed up in matching Balmain black and silver sequined dresses (oops!), but they took the red-carpet mishap in stride and turned it into un chiste, even posing para fotos juntas on the red carpet.  A quien le luce mejor?

Best Non-Basic Black Vestido

Latina Pussycat Doll Melody Thornton VS. Los Premios co-amfitriona, Nelly Furtado

Ambas cantantes opted for un vestido negro, pero los detalles make the dress in both cases.  Pussycat Doll Melody Thornton showcased her best assets in a sexy backless number, while Nelly's more conservative sheath dress brought attention to her neck and shoulders with intricate beading and sequins.

Most Badass Fashion Pareja

The, ahem, outspoken Kanye West and Amber Rose VS. Latin powerhouse couple, Marc Anthony and Jennifer Lopez

Kanye sported jeans, shades and a bottle of liquor to show his bad boy steeze, but nothing makes more of a fashion statement than his model girlfriend, Amber Rose, draped over him in her second-skin snake-print bodysuit.  On the other hand, Marc, also sporting sunglasses at night, accompanied JLo in an... interesting outfit with detached velour sleeves and sky-high leopard print booties.  Both parejas seemed to be trying to prove their edge, pero which one had you convinced?

Best WTF Red Carpet Look

Techni-colored Perez Hilton VS. Metal warrior Jack Black

Perez always knows how to make a fashion statement.  This time around, he meticulously matched his hi-liter yellow Doc Marten boots to his... dishwashing gloves?  As an equally unlikely fashion accessory, Jack Black chose to bring along his giant double-headed axe.  Porque, claro, no sabias that the VMA red carpet is a bloodthirtsy battleground?!

Classiest Hombre

Cuban rapper Pitbull VS. Senegalese R&B mogul Akon

Pitbull looked like a suave casanova in his 3-piece suit and purple tie, while Akon opted for a more modern traje and skinny black tie.  Both hip-hop stars really rocked their suits for the red carpet, pero cual lució más guapo?

Let us know what you think were the best and worst looks in the comments below, and check out more red carpet photos, exclusive video recap and more at the MTV Video Music Awards page on MTV.com!

Kanye West has always been famous for his rants, but at this year's VMAs he may have taken it a step too far.

While Taylor Swift was accepting her first-ever VMA for Best Female Video, Kanye stormed the stage, stole her mic and interrupted her speech, shouting "Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time!"  Both Taylor and Beyoncé (along with todos nosotros who were watching) were in total shock!  Demasiado, no??!!!

Beyoncé, in a super-classy momento, called Taylor up on stage while she was accepting her own Video of the Year award, to let the country pop starlet finish her speech.   Talk about VMA drama!

Kanye later released a statement apologizing to Taylor for what he did:

I'm not crazy y'all, I'm just real. I'm sorry for that.

Can you say awkward?  Qué creen?  Did Kanye cross the line, or was he just exercising his freedom of speech?

We announced last week that Beyoncé would be gracing the VMA stage with her "Diva" presence, but we are personally just as excited about Cuban rapper Pitbull participating in the Wale-emceed house band.  Pit, along with the All-American Rejects and 3OH!3 will be performing versions of their hit canciones with Wale throughout the VMA espectáculo.   We pulled Pitbull aside to ask algunas preguntas about how the whole VMA gig went down and to find out which of the VMA nominees have Mr. 305's stamp of approval.  Read the whole thing below!



You're gonna be part of the VMA house band in this year's show. How did that come about, and what can viewers expect to hear from you during the show?

What can be expected is great energy, a good vibe.  We going to put it down Dade County style!

What do you think are the chances of Wisin y Yandel winning the VMA for Best Pop video, and do you think they deserve to win?

I really don't know what their chances are, but if they win it's a great victory para todos los Latinos.

Who are you rooting for at the VMAs for Video of the Year?

Lady Gaga, because she has taken the music industry by storm with her distinctive music and style.

What do you have in store for us for your future music videos? Do you think we'll see a Pitbull video nominated for a VMA anytime soon?

I think you will see a Pitbull video nominated in the near future.  We will continue to make sexy, sophisticated videos with nothing but the finest, most exotic beautiful women in the world!

Lastly, congrats on being granted the key to Miami!  What does that honor mean to you?

It's a blessing and a great honor, especially for someone born and raised in Miami.

Ring the alarm, porque the VMAs just got hotter!  Beyoncé, who is tied with fellow performer Lady Gaga for the most nominations este año, has just been added as a performer to the already star-studded show!

La cantante will be flexing more than just her vocal muscles with a dance-heavy performance of her latest canción, "Sweet Dreams."  Beyoncé joins hubby Jay-Z, P!nk, Green Day, and Lady Gaga, among others who are set to blow our minds at this year's MTV Video Music Awards in NY.

Also announced today was the addition of a house band, emceed by hip-hop newcomer Wale.  El rapero has collaborated with artists such as Cuban rapper Pitbull, Lady Gaga and the All-American Rejects on his upcoming debut album, Attention Deficit, due out on October 20th.

Thought that the Wisin y Yandel nomination for Best Pop Video was the most exciting thing that could happen to the VMAs?  Look out, porque los VMAs just keep getting más y más emocionantes!  Just added to the list of performers are hip-hop mogul Jay-Z and avantgarde pop princesa Lady Gaga!

With a total of 9 nominations for "Poker Face" and "Paparazzi," Lady Gaga, along with Jay-Z's bella esposa Beyoncé, is the one to beat at los VMAs este año.   About getting to perform at the VMAs, Lady Gaga had this to say:

I'm simply gutted to be both a performer and nominee at the 2009 VMAs. In fact, I'm so happy, I could die.

Qué dramática!  Pero, de veras, did we really expect anything else from this over-the-top cantante?  Personally, we can't wait to see que locuras she'll be doing (and wearing!) onstage!

Jay-Z, quien está nominado para Best Hip-Hop Video y Best Male Video, will also be hitting the VMA stage in style.  Su nuevo album, The Blueprint 3, is due to drop on September 11, just two days before the VMAs.

Also announced today are three additional presenters: "Manos Al Aire" cantante Nelly Furtado, Miranda Cosgrove of iCarly fama, and "Gossip Girl" star Leighton Meester, who was last seen partying it up en el más reciente video de Cobra Starship.
