You can now stop worrying whether or not the cast of Jersey Shore would make it out of the east coast in time for the VMAs….

MTV could not and would not let its money cow sit in Jersey during Hurricane Irene’s visit so, as airlines began preemptively cancelling flights due to the weather, MTV’s reality darlings jetted out of the area in a private jet courtesy of, well, MTV of course.

Paul “Pauly D” DelVecchio told MTV News: “I was nervous. This storm’s no joke!” The storm was no joke indeed and New Jersey’s coastline got beat up by it. There still is no word if the cast’s Seaside Heights house survived.

“I hope our shore house doesn’t blow away,” Snooki tweeted Friday.

WOW! Something tells me Maroon 5 front man Adam Levine does not like MTV.

Levine tweeted Saturday: “The VMAs. One day a year when MTV pretends to still care about music. I’m drawing a line in the sand. F*ck you, VMAs.”

The network obviously had to say something in response to the popular judge and mentor of The Voice, so, they took to Twitter as well and asked Levine: “Soooo you’ll be tuning in at 9/8C tomorrow right? (BTW, bonus points if you TwitPic your 2004 Moonman!).”

Adam responded at first by Tweeting, “Still waiting to have my ‘Jerry Maguire mission statement moment of deep regret.’ Not happening. Phew!” But after some cooling down, Levine also Tweeted, “I may be a pop singer. But every once in a while the angsty teenager in me just blurts out some raw honesty. It’s a reflex.”  Well, guess he didn’t really cool down because he still stuck to his gun.

Finally, Kelly Clarkson’s Fifth Album Will Drop This Fall

After several leaks and delays, Kelly Clarkson‘s fifth album will finally be released, and soon!

Titled, Stronger, the album will drop October 25, preceded by the single Mr. Know It All which debut via a live webcast with fans August 30 through Kelly’s website. The song will then hit the airwaves September 5.

The album was originally slated for a late 2010 release, but got several push backs. Last month, three of the album’s songs leaked, including Forgive You and Dumb + Dumb = You just a week after another new tune, Let Me Down had surfaced online.
Clarkson is super excited about the long-anticipated release. She posted a note on her blog saying, “Can’t wait for y’all to hear the new single! The band and I are really excited and currently gearing up for this record! It’s gonna be a fun record to tour!”

Before the above note, the first American Idol winner has been excitedly and frustratingly Tweeting about the album release for a while. She wrote: “Just found out my single is hitting radio in August!” She also tweeted: “Woohoo! It sounds great as well! Can’t wait for y’all to hear it!” An hour later, Clarkson had to retract: “Okay please do not get angry but it might be September for my single.” Then again, “My calendar was messed up! I’m so sorry! BUT it might be late August! It’s a huge bummer waiting but I promise it’ll be worth it! Stupid technology!!”

First Baby Photo: Kate Hudson Introduces Baby Bingham Hawn Bellamy

Seriously, how cute is this photo of Kate Hudson, looking angel-faced and glowing, holding her one month old baby girl, Bingham Hawn Bellamy?

The photo was posted by proud daddy Matt Bellamy via Twitter, with the caption, “Family life!”

This first seen pic of baby Bingham came after the family stepped out last week at LAX and the photogs tried to get a pic of her with no success–she was completely concealed with a blanket.

Bellamy thought tweeting a photo of the baby would keep the paparazzi away: “Wow, these paps are annoying. Thought we’d tweet a pic in hope of paps backing off, didn’t work!”

Hudson gave birth to the 7-pound, 12-ounce baby on July 9.

TLC no longer feels the love for its once flagship show, Kate Plus 8.

TLC announced Monday that it was cancelling this long-running reality show about Jon and Kate Gosselin’s 8 children which first began airing as Jon and Kate Plus 8 and later transformed into Kate Plus 8 when the couple divorced.

“TLC has decided not to renew another season of ‘Kate Plus 8’. By the end of this season Kate Plus 8 will have hit the 150 episode mark (including Jon & Kate Plus 8); an exceptional milestone. TLC hopes to check in with Kate and the family periodically with specials in the future.”
Kate Gosselin is OK with the news, taking to Twitter to say: “We’ve had a great run! Six years of whirlwind funfilled adventures thanks to TLC and our many many supportive & diehard fans!” Kate says the kids have not taken the news well: “There were many tears at the breakfast table this morning.”

She continues: “I am excited2consider many more invigorating opportunities that may come my way! … And remember, this is not ‘goodbye’.I prefer to say ‘See you around!’ Xoxo”

The series finale of Kate Plus 8 will air Sept. 12.

Five people were killed and dozens were injured when a stage collapsed at the Indiana State Fair right before country band Sugarland was to perform on Saturday night. The cause is speculated to be inclement weather (high winds).

“The wind just picked up and the stage just caught and the roof just caught and it went up like a sail and then it crashed forward into the people standing in the front,” said a reporter for WANE-TV in Indiana.

“There were people trapped underneath and everyone was running and screaming. They were asking any medics or nurses not to leave.”


Sugarland has since spoken out about the tragic incident via Twitter: “We are all right. We are praying for our fans, and the people of Indianapolis. We hope you’ll join us. They need your strength.”

The concert’s opening act, Sara Bareilles, who performed before the collapse, also tweeted, “Please send love and prayers to Indianapolis tonight. My heart aches for the lives lost.”

Bareilles also apologized to fans in Iowa for canceling their show Sunday, writing, “Our apologies and gratitude to the people of Iowa for understanding our absence tonight from the scheduled show. We’ll hope to see you soon.”
