Ashlee works on new album

 

According to EW.com Ashlee Simpson is collaborating with Robert Smith on her new album, as well as with Timbaland, John Legend, Kenna, and Chad Hugo of the Neptunes.

What happens in Austin, stays in Austin? Not when it’s new-album news about Ashlee Simpson, straight from the horse’s mouth! (Or, more accurately, the mouth of the horse’s dad-slash-manager). At a late-night SXSW showcase by Ethiopian-born alt-pop artist Kenna, two of EW’s intrepid reporters spotted Simpson père Joe, who filled us in on his daughter’s plans for her upcoming 2007 release.

The album involves Kenna (whose own album is due this June) and his buddy and producer Chad Hugo — a.k.a., the member of production über-duo the Neptunes who is not Pharrell Williams. Mr. Simpson tells us Ashlee, Chad, and Kenna were in the studio writing songs earlier this month, and that she’s also working with Timbaland, John Legend, and Tim Rice-Oxley of Brit sensations Keane, who teamed up with Gwen Stefani on ‘’Early Winter,'’ one of the strongest, most reflective tracks on her recent Sweet Escape album.

Justin Timberlake goes undercover wearing a hoodie as he leaves his Midtown hotel in New York City on Friday afternoon.

In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, rap producer Timbaland reveals that he will be collaborating with Justin Timberlake and Madonna on a music project together. Absolutely cannot wait to hear that one!

Madonna + Justin Timberlake + Timbaland = HEAVEN

In other JT news, Justin is apparently too sexy for the Tennessee Legislature. State Sen. Ophelia Ford had introduced a resolution to honor Tennessee native JT “for his highly successful music career and for his meritorious service to the State of Tennessee.” Republican State Senator Raymond Finney removed the resolution due in part to JT’s song and album titles, including FutureSex/LoveSounds and “SexyBack.” “It’s not something I want my name on,” Finney said.

Preview (Singles)

A trio in the making?

According to MTV, Timbaland wants to bring Britney back to proclaim once-stellar career with ex-boyfriend Justin Timberlake onboard.

Timbaland was quoted sayng; “I feel her pain, it really bothers me,” the 34-year-old rapper-producer says in an interview in Entertainment Weekly magazine’s March 16 issue. “I’m the type of person who tries to save the world. I just want to take her away, go overseas, and work (it) out.”

Timbaland says he invited Timberlake, his “best friend” and Spears’ ex-boyfriend, to be part of that plan.

“I asked Justin, ‘How would you feel about me working with Britney?’ I had to ask him that,” Timbaland is quoted as saying. “I said, ‘Would you do it with me?”‘

The 26-year-old “SexyBack” singer said he would, according to Timbaland, who notes: “She’s just gotta be serious.”

Timberlake’s spokeswoman, Sonia Muckle, referred inquiries to Timbaland’s spokeswoman, Monique Idlett, who didn’t immediately respond to a phone call Wednesday from The Associated Press. Gina Orr, a publicist at Jive Records, Spears’ label, didn’t immediately respond to an e-mail message.

Last month, Spears, 25, checked into Promises Malibu drug and alcohol rehabilitation center in California, capping a week of bizarre behavior in which she entered and exited rehab twice, shaved her head bald and went out clubbing with friends.

“I just want to hold her hand,” Timbaland says. “I want her to be in my camp, to be around Justin. I need Justin to talk to her. Help her, please!”
