Kim recently hung out with Ben and Duncan from MTV’s exciting new show, The Buried Life, in New York. The Buried Life follows a group of friends and their own film crew who set off in a purple bus, named Penelope, with a list of things that they’ve dreamed of doing. On their exciting journey, the guys not only try to fulfill their own dreams. They also try to fulfill the dreams of others. The guys told us that the show was inspired by a poem they had read in English class, that was over 150 years old.

Do you feel inspired by the guys’ show? You can also help a good cause, and all you have to do is login to your Facebook. Yes! Helping is that easy! Go to the show’s Facebook page, and become a fan of the show. Once they reach 75,000 fans MTV will fund a soccer camp in Uganda for Duncan’s charity. It’s an awesome cause, and we look forward to helping Duncan with his charity.

The Buried Life premieres tonight, on MTV at 10:00PM. Let us know what you think of MTV’s exciting new show!

Remember a few months ago, when Heidi Montag and husband, Spencer Pratt, announced that Heidi would be crossing over into the music industry and releasing her first album? Well, they weren’t kidding.

Over the summer, Heidi gave us a taste of what her music would be like with a “live” performance of her buzz single, “Body Language,” at the 2009 Miss Universe show. Dressed in an a sparkly, skin colored outfit, very similar to Britney’s memorable MTV VMA outfit, Montag pranced around the stage, sometimes joining in the choreographed dance routine, and showed the world that Montag was serious when she said she wanted to be a pop star. Although the song was hot, (Yes! We like the song!) and well received by her fans, “Body Language” didn’t make track list for Montag’s debut album, “Superficial.”

To our surprise, “Superficial” actually isn’t as bad as we thought it would be. Besides looking plastic on the album’s cover, Heidi has actually managed to put together a fun, pop album. (Maybe Heidi was trying to look “superficial” to show how society….No? We didn’t think it was edited that way either.) Sure, she’s no Britney or GaGa, but with the help of her new friend, Auto-Tune, Heidi gives us fun tracks that we can dance and have a good time to in the clubs.

Montag was wise and left the writing to the professional songwriters. The up-tempo tracks were written by talented songwriters like Cathy Dennis (Britney Spears, Pink, Kelly Clarkson, etc.), are far from deep, and are mostly about partying, having fun, and Heidi being Heidi. Before you shit on Heidi for not writing her own lyrics and not signing any ballads, take a second and think about that. Do we really want Heidi Montag to being deep, writing her own material, and trying to sing ballads? Yeah. We didn’t think so either.

After listening to “Superficial” a few times, we saw that we liked more songs that we disliked. The album has both hot and luke warm tracks. The good tracks are actually very hot! “Turn Ya Head” “One More Drink” are very Britney, and we love that! Heidi’s breathy vocals are sexy and alluring in these songs. “More Is More” and “Twisted” are two other tracks that we loved, and remembered after listening to the album. We had these songs on repeat. These songs are fun and could potentially do well as singles.

The album’s title track, “Superficial,” which starts off with the robotic sounding lyrics, “I ain’t that easy, but it ain’t so hard,” is a hot mess. The title track tries to be annoyingly catchy, but ends up just being annoying. The chorus which consists mostly of the lines, “They say I’m superficial because I got money. They say I’m superficial, but they really don’t know me.” Heidi then contradicts her previous lyrics with the lines, “They call me superficial. Some call me a bitch. They just mad because I’m sexy, famous, and I’m Rich.” Really, Heidi? Really? Even though Spencer’s name isn’t in the writing credits, we can’t help but picture him writing those poetic lyrics. Some other tracks that we weren’t loving were the album’s second single, “Fanatic,” and “Like It Or Leave It.”
Well done, Heidi Montag! You’ve actually put together a fun, debut album! We’re excited to see her promote the album. Whether you’re a fan of Heidi’s or not, try to go into it with an open mind. This is an album that fans of pop music will like.

“Superficial” is in stores now! You can purchase Heidi Montag’s debut album on her official website.

With a successful debut album, and a role in last year’s hilarious comedy, “The House Bunny,” Katharine McPhee is ready to start the new year with a sexy new look, and a new album, “Unbroken.” The singer, who traded her long, brunette hair for a short, blonde do, is ready to take on the music scene once again. However, there is more to Katherine’s second album than just a new look. Along with her darker hair, Katharine has also traded in her traditional pop sound for a more mature, alternative sound. (You may even say that this album has a country sound to it! We love it!)

The album’s first single, ‘Had It All,’ is a great example of what the rest of McPhee’s album has to offer. The laid back and uplifting track, which was co-written by American Idol judge, Kara DioGuardi, is definitely a different direction than her debut single, ‘Over It,’ which had a Pop & R&B sound. McPhee describes the song as being about “a girl that went out to look for a different love and thought that she could find something better and realized at the end ‘Wow, I really had it all.’” She also says the song is very much upbeat and with a “positive vibe to it.” This is one of our favorite tracks, and had us singling along after the first couple of listens.

Ballads like the title track, ‘Unbroken,’ ‘Say Goodbye,’ and ‘Anybody’s Heart’ are not only heartfelt, but showcase the singer’s beautiful voice. Some of our other favorite tracks on the album are ‘It’s Not Right’ and ‘How.’ McPhee has said that this album is more “organic,” and after listening to the album, which she co-wrote six songs on, we have to agree!

You can purchase your copy of “Unbroken” on January 5th! Click HERE to check out Katharine McPhee’s official website for the latest news, photos, and video.

Actress Brittany Murphy died of cardiac arrest on Sunday morning at the age of 32.

TMZ reported earlier today that Brittany’s mom discovered her unconscious in the shower. The Associated Press reports that the Los Angeles Fire Department then responded to a 911 call from the home of Brittany’s husband, screenwriter Simon Monjack. She was pronounced dead at Cedars Sinai Medical Center.

Brittany’s family via her rep says, “The sudden loss of our beloved Brittany is a terrible tragedy. She was our daughter, our wife, our love and a shining star. We ask you to respect our privacy at this time.”

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Brittany’s family and friends. Brittany was a beautiful and charismatic actress, who, with her unique senior of humor and charm, made us laugh and fall in love with each character that she played.
