Because, what would be the point of getting the Glee kids together if you're not going to let them do their thing?

Did You Hear?
:: Glam rock legend David Bowie says that report that he's involved in the production of Lady Gaga's next album is "untrue and a hoax." Um, anyone want to help us start a rumor that he's working with Adam Lambert? [DavidBowie.com via Billboard]
:: Joaquin Phoenix's hip-hop career? Real. At least, real enough to be the subject of a documentary that is actually being released. See the surreal trailer for "I'm Still Here". [Just Jared]
:: Ever wonder how Deadmau5 earned his nom de guerre? Warning: its a little gruesome, but you might as well hear it now — and study his essential tracks — before he DJs at the MTV Video Music Awards. [MTV]
:: Lil Wayne sent another letter from his summer residence on Rikers Island, letting us know he's working out regularly and spending time honing his skills at the card game UNO. And you thought he was just spitting new verses. [Rap Radar]
After the jump, check out which stars will be lighting up the tube tonight. More »

Is Lady Gaga Working With David Bowie On Her Third Album?
Thu Aug 12 2010 by Becky Bain
A sly spy over on a Gaga Daily thread (reposted on Oh No They Didn't) recently uploaded a scan of an official-looking document detailing a recording session Lady Gaga had while in Sydney, Australia in July. The list of songs laid down in the studio includes an awesomely-titled track called "Hooker On A Church Corner" as well as a David Bowie collaboration. If this is for real, we could definitely see why Gaga would call her third album "my best work to date." Alleged song list and round-up of producers working with the pop star below:

Quentin Tarantino Renders Ennio Morricone Inglourious
Mon May 18 2009 by Maura
The soundtrack-gathering prowess of Quentin Tarantino has been discussed in this space before, and the release of the song list for his forthcoming World War II flick–the spell-check-defying Inglourious Basterds, which premieres at Cannes on Wednesday–is notable for its heavy reliance on the work of famed composer Ennio Morricone, not to mention the excavation of the Giorgio Moroder/David Bowie track from the 1982 film Cat People.
