In the dominantly pink- and purple-hued video sneak peek, Selena Gomez starts off singing "Love You Like A Love Song" in a subdued karaoke bar filled exclusively with middle-aged patrons (?). But before you can say "Bieber," the enchanted karaoke machine transports Selena from the boring bar straight into the magical world of the ever-romantic karaoke video.

First, the "Bang Bang Bang" singer time travels to a pink beach with purple sand, where she Hula-Hoops to the beat of the ocean tide and chills with a white-robed man playing a medieval instrument (WHAT?). Then, we're treated to a retro-looking Selena driving down a purple highway with a Danny Zuko from Grease look-alike. Selena then travels back in time and reappears decked the hell out in what is obviously Marie Antoinette's evening wear while sitting atop a piano that's being played by the 1700s version of Elton John. And finally, my personal favorite, Selena finds her way to a vast field of purple grass where she's greeted by her own personal Mariachi band, playing -- wait for it -- the keytar (DOUBLE WHAT??).

We know this all sounds like a bad acid trip, but "Love You Like A Love Song" is actually super fun, definitely colorful and we're feeling it. And might I add that after her arduous journey through time, not a hair on Selena's head is out of place. How DOES she do it?

Miley Cyrus, who's currently Down Under with her on-again boyfriend Liam Hemsworth (not a euphemism -- they're in Australia), took a little time out from her Gypsy Heart tour schedule to go sightseeing in Brisbane. And while she was out, she turned her own camera back on the ever-annoying paparazzi. You know what they say: If you can't stop the photographers, join the photographers...or whatever.

We have to commend the "Can't Be Tamed" singer on this peaceful approach to getting back at the paps. We don't know what it's like to have cameras in our face 24/7, which seem especially annoying when you're just trying to get a little boyfriend time in during a break from work, but if it were us, we would have just done a full-out Björk on those bros. Not that we condone violence of any kind, we're just saying we probably wouldn't be as chill as Miley. Maybe we need to practice our peace signs.

In the mid-1990s, Sublime's mix of dub, reggae, punk, ska and hip-hop would help define an entire subgenre of alternative rock. The band's laid-back tales of California life felt like the flip side of grunge's nihilism and was able to unite the punks, surfers, rastas and hip-hop fans behind one band. Bassist Eric Wilson and drummer Bud Gaugh have continued playing despite the 1996 death of singer Bradley Nowell. They've added singer/guitarist Rome Ramirez to form Sublime With Rome. And now we've got the exclusive new single "Can You Feel it," featuring Wiz Khalifa.

While it's hard to mistake Ramirez's voice for Nowell's, the group leans heavily on its reggae and dub influence on "Can You Feel It," channeling soulful Jamaican crooners like Jimmy Cliff and Desmond Dekker. When Ramirez cedes the mic to Wiz, the rapper delivers another ode to his favorite medicinal herb: "I'm rollin' up a G6/Hit it once you won't believe this/You say your mind is racing/I'm just trying to help you pace it," rhymes Wiz, always the thoughtful friend.

"Can You Feel It" is the second single from the group's upcoming debut album Yours Truly, out everywhere July 12. Hear clips of all the songs on Yours Truly over at iTunes, and check out Sublime With Rome on tour all summer long with 311. Head to sublimewithrome.com for more info.

While you're sitting around replaying this video of a cat leisurely watching Slayer on TV (don't judge), Fergie's busy traveling the world whilst successfully pulling off leather pants. The Black Eyed Pea was spotted leaving her hotel in Paris looking tres chic (while the guy behind her was spotted trying to do long division in his head). Not pictured is Fergie's bellhop, who's pushing a cart full of giant, full Louis Vuitton bags to her car, NBD.

You read all of that correctly, ladies and gentlemen. Let's tabulate: Fergie's pants cost more than your rent, that jacket is fly as hell, she has an entire cart full of Louis Vuitton bags waiting for her, she's in Paris, and oh yeah, she married to this guy. So basically, she answered the "If I were famous..." question perfectly...like, with her life.

We haven't exactly been shy about our love of Swedish producers Teddybears. The trio recently teamed up with Robyn for the dance floor-filling "Cardiac Arrest," followed by a collaboration with Cee Lo and The B-52's on the feline-loving "Cho Cha." As the group approaches the July 5 release of its sixth album Devil's Music, we've got "Get Fresh With You," an exclusive new track featuring Jamaican singer/rapper Laza Morgan.

"Get Fresh With You" moves at the same buoyant pace as "Cho Cha," channeling the Jamaican dancehall via vintage synths. Laza Morgan is slightly less subtle than Cee Lo, though, asking point blank, "Can I get fresh with you, girl?" Dude wastes no time in the club. Our Jamaican patois comprehension level is admittedly a little rusty, but we're fairly sure at least some of these lyrics are NSFW.

If the initial organ riffs sound similar to Caesars' 2003 garage hit "Jerk It Out," don't forget Teddybears' songwriting team of brothers Joakim and Klas Ahlund also founded that band (Joakim remains a member). But where Caesars leaned more toward Nuggets-era psychedelic rock, Teddybears' genre-hopping styles all coalesce on the dance floor.

Not being famous musicians, we speak from experience that "Can I get fresh with you, girl?" gets more slaps than phone numbers, but maybe you'll have better luck.

It's been pretty warm out for quite some time already, but today is the first official day of summer. Woohoo! And what better way to celebrate the coming of the vernal equinox than with a hot new jam from Maroon 5 and Christina Aguilera? Recorded last month in Los Angeles, "Moves Like Jagger" is an upbeat, electro-tinged iteration of Maroon 5's smooth neo-soul sound. Christina doesn't come in until after the two-minute mark, but once she does, there's no stopping her. She should collaborate more often with her fellow "The Voice" coaches!

As much as I'm going to enjoy dancing to this song in the grocery store aisles whenever it comes on the radio, I have to ask: Does anyone really have moves just like Mick Jagger? If I recall correctly, it's pretty hard for any non-Mick person to pull off that sexy chicken dance, even Christina Aguilera. Proceed with caution when trying it yourself.

Regardless, this is a perfect summer song, and you can watch Christina and Adam perform it together on "The Voice" tonight. Convenient timing! And what a synergistic meeting of the minds.

If you're a fan of The Script, then you know exactly why we had to invite these strapping Irishmen to our offices for an exclusive, live acoustic performance. In a world full of over-the-top effects and Auto-Tune out the wazoo, the boys of The Script are standouts, relying primarily on their inherent musicianship, songwriting ability and incredible vocals. Why not ditch the studio and let these lads showcase what they do best? Boom. Done.

Lead singer Danny O'Donoghue introduces the first song, "For The First Time," and starts off the tune with a casual strum on the guitar. But The Script has a way of taking you from "Oh, I like this song" to "Why am I in the corner weeping like a baby?" in just under two minutes. Taking a cue from earlier singles "The Man Who Can't Be Moved" and "Breakeven," in "For The First Time,"  Danny is still pining for his lost love. Pass the tissue, please.

For their second song, the boys dig into their latest single, "Nøthing," a tune that Danny laughingly describes as a song dedicated to his "drinking problem," about trying to piece together a wild night when you wake up the next morning. But again, leave it to The Script to make you want to put a song about blacking out on a romantic mix CD (playlist? Mediashare folder?) you make for your boyfriend.

Ah, the time-honored practice of blowing kisses. Those imaginary little treats that fly through the air are as close as most people are ever going to get to smooching their favorite celeb. Unfortunately, it's harder than it looks to do it with poise.

Christina Aguilera looks cute and sassy in the above photo, but there are lots of celebs who look, well, awkward. And who doesn't love an awkward photo?! That's why we put together Buzzworthy's Awkward Photos Of Celebs Blowing Kisses photo gallery! Take a look and see who's kiss you want to catch.

While greeting fans on the red carpet at the MTV Video Music Awards, Jessica Simpson forgot one cardinal rule of kiss-blowing: Don't show your teeth! Good kisses do not contain teeth.

Shown here arriving at the 2008 MTV VMAs, Miley Cyrus attempted the sly "just blowin' a kiss" maneuver but seemed to have a bit of hand-eye coordination trouble. Pro tip: You cannot blow the kisses off your hand if your hand is nowhere near your mouth.

And here we see a somewhat nonplussed-looking Courtney Love arriving at amfAR's Inspiration Gala in Los Angeles, performing what looks like a cross between a kiss and a kiss-off. We'll take it anyway.

If you hadn't noticed, Drake has been dropping unofficial tracks off of his forthcoming album Take Care (due out Oct. 24) like crazy. "Trust Issues," his latest offering, starts off with a slow-mo reinterpretation of the hook from his single with DJ Khaled, "I'm On One." On his blog, October's Very Own, where he released the track, a rather succinct Drake addresses the sample by writing, "Did my own little thing using some other thing I did. You know." We know.

In his prior release, "Marvin's Room," Drake gets a little too wasted and decides to hit up an ex-girlfriend even though he knows she's with a worthy new guy. Continuing down this same (likely alcohol-induced) path of vulnerability, "Trust Issues" takes us even deeper into the Drizzy psyche, as he walks us through his past relationships and addresses exactly why he's got a serious lack of faith in the opposite sex.

In classic Drake fashion, he starts off with his signature R&B vocals as he croons, "I don't trust these b******." You know, all sweet-like. Then, staying true to form, he seamlessly transitions to rapper stance as he rhymes, "You actin' like it's somebody you don't know/Tell me how the f*** we supposed to stay friends/When you got a bunch of feelings that you don't show?"

C'mon, lady-fans. Looks like Drake is in need of some TLC. Any takers?

+ Listen To Drake, "Trust Issues."
