+ Go inside the mind of Katy Perry/Kathy Beth Terry in a new interview with the nerdy 13-year-old alter ego. Regarding whether or not we're invited to her next party, Kathy said, "Due to the whole 'grounded for the next 5 years' thing, I'm laying low... The next party will be online, that way you can all come!" Online parties are the best parties. (ONTD)

+ Brush off your Dr. Martens and teenage angst, bros -- '90s rockers Bush are planning to release their first album in 10 years. The Gavin Rossdale-fronted band (now featuring two new members) will release The Sea Of Memories on Sept. 13. (Popdust)

+ Speaking of new albums, if "Come On Eileen" is your favorite "WTF" jukebox selection (like me!), you're in luck. Foursome from the '80s Dexys Midnight Runners are at work on a new material. The still untitled album is due out sometime next year. (Spinner)

This past Friday night, MTV's Hope For Haiti Now: A Global Benefit For Earthquake Relief helped raise over $58 million dollars for the people of Haiti, and the star-studded event sent a new record for donations made by the general public during a disaster-relief telethon, and the "Hope for Haiti Now" album became the biggest one-day album pre-order in iTunes history.

The evening wasn't about promoting vanity projects, red carpet fashions, or Hollywood heartthrobs. It was about putting aside the fact that our country is in need and giving to those whose need is so great that ours pales in comparison.

And the Hope For Haiti Now: A Global Benefit For Earthquake Relief was about the power of music -- from Justin Timberlake's cover of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" to Stevie Wonder's "Bridge Over Troubled Water," to Bono, The Edge, Jay-Z and Rihanna's brand-new song, "Stranded -- Haiti Mon Amour," and, of course, Wyclef Jean's "Rivers of Babylon"/"Yele" medley -- to unite and bring us hope.

Watch all of the Hope For Haiti Now: A Global Benefit For Earthquake Relief performances below. Plus, pre-order the Hope for Haiti Now full-performance album for just $7.99 on iTunes. And please, donate.

Alicia Keys, "Prelude To A Kiss"

Coldplay, "A Message"

Bruce Springsteen, "We Shall Overcome"

Shakira, "I'll Stand By You"

The coffeehouse meets the beach in the easygoing music of boho California-free-spirit Angel Taylor. The closest I can come to classifying her summery sonic melting pot is "the female Jack Johnson," but even that falls woefully short. Her bouncy blend of sleepy reggae, upbeat soul and acoustic pop evokes everything from Third Eye Blind to Sheryl Crow to "Somewhere Over The Rainbow," without actually sounding like any of them. Who do you think she sounds like?

Angel's debut album, Love Travels, got a boost from iTunes, when they named her "Make Me Believe" their single of the week. And it's a fitting match. The breezy go-to track would be right at home in an iPod commercial. The song's success won her opening slots on tour with Adele, Brett Dennen, Brandi Carlile and Gavin DeGraw, among others. Are you impressed yet?

To seal the deal, fall into "Make Me Believe" or any of Angel Taylor's other delicately-plucked perfume daydreams, and keep an eye out for this gently rising talent.

+ At last night's Democratic Convention, Sheryl Crow dedicated her song "Strong Enough" Barack Obama, then asked the White House hopeful: "Are you strong enough to be my man ... or my president?" (Billboard)

+ And speaking of Barack's celebrity fanbase, he couldn't ask for a more outspoken supporter than Madonna. He also couldn't ask for a worse lobbyist. (NY Times)

+ Meanwhile, is Rage Against the Machine's Zack de la Rocha planning to "hijack" the Republican Convention? (That's soooo 2000 VMAs!) (NME)

+ Robin Thicke and Mary J. Blige are touring to promote their new albums. Also weird? One of them has a new album called Growing Pains ... and it's NOT Robin "Son of Alan" Thicke. (Reuters)

+ T.I. has a message for whoever leaked his new track, "Swagger Like Us," onto the Internet. "Don't ruin the event," he says. "Wait till the cake comes out the kitchen before you eat it. That's like a kid who sees his toys before Christmas; it takes away from me [and] it takes away from the fans." (MTV)

+ Taylor Swift has a windblown, Mariah-thing happening on the cover of her new LP, Fearless. (The Boot)

+ Chamillionaire puts himself in his fans' shoes. "I did a rap like I'm the person sitting at the computer typing," he says. "It's some little kid that's on the Internet ... His mother comes in and asks him, 'Did you take your medication? Are you on those porno sites again?' I'm rapping like I'm him in his voice." (MTV)
