Very exciting!

PerezHilton.com has been given an exclusive look at the cover art for Pitbull's upcoming album Planet Pit (above), and we've got lots of new deets on the all-star team of artists and producers collaborating on this release!

Featured artists on the upcoming Pitbull album will include Marc Anthony, Chris Brown, T-Pain, Ne-Yo, Kelly Rowland, and Sean Paul.

All-star producers that have collaborated on Planet Pit include Afrojack, Benny Blanco, Dr. Luke, Max Martin, David Guetta, RedOne, Polow Da Don and DJ Frank E.

Wowsa! Looks like he's got one hell of a team for this one!

Here's what Pitbull aka Armando Christian Pérez had to say about his upcoming album via press release:

"It embodies a bit of everywhere I’ve been. I’m trying to be the ambassador; the bridge builder who brings elements from all over the world and puts it all together so it sounds like nothing you’ve ever heard before."

"When the congas are pounding and the bass is thumping behind me, nothing can touch me."

Sounds fantastic! We can't wait to hear it!

While promoting his upcoming album, Pitbull's also done a cover story for Latina magazine, where he talks about his influences, as well as several other subjects.

Are U pumped for Pitbull's upcoming album Planet Pit?

Uh-oh! He better watch his step!

Seaside Heights hath no fury like a guidette scorned!

After our Snooki Snickers graced the cover of Rolling Stone Magazine, Ne-Yo couldn't seem to understand why, and took to Twitter to express his half-joking confusion about the matter, and wrote:

"Wow. Snooki is on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine. Really? I quit. (Just kidding, but almost serious….)."

Well, it looks as though the Jersey Shore castmember was pretty hurt by the comments and recently fired back, and it ain't nice!

She responded:

"I was just really upset. I'm a big fan of Ne-Yo. Every song was on my iPod and I deleted them yesterday just because of his comments. Why do you hate me? I'm the nicest person ever. I understand you are a little mad cause your career is not up right now and I'm on the cover but you know what–like I'm a nice person and I deserve it, so get over it."

Aw! It must have been pretty disappointing for her to hear that from him, especially because she was such a big fan!

And in his defense, Ne-Yo has once again responded, and wants her to know that he didn't mean for her to take it personally - he just thinks Rolling Stone should focus on MUSIC:

"I don't know her so I can't disrespect her, but I feel like Rolling Stone is a music magazine. And for them to put her on the cover, it's like, 'Really?'"

Personally, we understand what he's trying to say - but he needs to realize that the magazine at this point is about A LOT more than just music, and whether you like it or not, Snooks has SECURED herself a well-deserved spot in the limelight, and has every right to be on whatever magazine covers for which she wants to pose!

Let's hope these two can meet in person, hug it out, and hopefully move on! It doesn't sound as though he meant for her to take it as personally as she did, so we're sure that this issue can be resolved if they just reach out to each other!

Fingers crossed!

Bad news for Ne-Yo fans.

The R&B star has cancelled postponed several of his upcoming concerts from his UK tour.

The reason?

Despite people thinking it might be due to low ticket sales, the singer's rep claims it's because Ne-Yo will be working on finishing his new album.

Ne-Yo cancelled his shows in Glasgow, Liverpool and Newcastle to work on the album. The shows will be reschedule for later this Fall.

According to a statement released:

"With work on his fifth studio album going so well the American singer/songwriter could not interrupt the creative process."

As for his fifth album, it’s due out later this year. And with all the hard work he’s reportedly putting into it, we hope it turns out great.

OMG, we're SO excited for this!!

It's been 2 long years since Jennifer Hudson's self-titled debut album so we hope her sophomore release I Remember Me dropping on March 22 will be worth the wait.

It seems so close, yet so far away! Luckily, her new single Where You At will hit the airwaves on the radio on January 24th.

If you're dying to hear it and still can't wait, then check out a 30-second snippet right here!

This all-star produced album features collaborators like Alicia Keys, Swizz Beatz, R. Kelly, Rich Harrison, Ne-Yo, and Stargate.

Jennifer reflects on her album, saying:

“I’m excited about this album because it’s almost like a renewal for me, reflected through the chapters of my life. I’ve called it ‘I Remember Me’ because of the journey I’ve been on. I’ve learned that life constantly surprises you, no matter your plans. My fans have been so loyal, I feel like they have been on this journey with me and I can’t wait for them to hear the new album.”

We can't wait either, bb!

What about U?

We'd LOVE to hear what these two would produce together!

Ne-Yo recently revealed that he's looking forward to Cheryl Cole's upcoming move to the US, because he wants to collaborate on some music with the singer!

He explains:

"Me and Cheryl talked about working together earlier but our schedules never worked out. America is a tough market, but as long as she has the right material Cheryl can do it."

We agree! And you have a lot of artists standing behind you 100%, bb!

America is going to LOVE you!

What do U think?? Do U want to see Ne-Yo and Chezza make sweet music together??
