Lady Gaga is streaming her new album a week early after leaks, but she hinted Wednesday at an out-of-this-world publicity splash with its official launch -- a concert in space.

The multi-platinum-selling pop diva's third album, "Artpop," went up without warning on iTunes after a trickle of leaks in recent days on the Internet. The first official release was Wednesday in Japan.

U.S. star Eva Longoria has lent her voice to animated television series "Mother Up!" with a character struggling with the challenges of motherhood.

Longoria is also an executive producer of the 13-episode series, which debuted Wednesday on online video websites Hulu and Hulu Plus.

George Strait might be reconsidering his retirement plans after he picked up country music's top honor Wednesday for the third time in his long career.

Strait, 61, who's midway through his Cowboy Rides Away farewell tour, won entertainer of the year at the 47th annual Country Music Association (CMA) awards in Nashville, Tennessee, a laurel he last won in 1989 and 1990.

The website of Brazil's biggest news outlet published photos Wednesday it says show pop star Justin Bieber spray painting graffiti on a wall. And it adds that police want to question him about it.

The O Globo newspaper reported that photographers snapped photos of Bieber as he painted graffiti on a wall of the former Hotel Nacional in Rio de Janeiro Tuesday morning.

Lady Gaga and her manager Troy Carter have split just days before the pop star releases her new album, "ARTPOP."

A source familiar with the situation confirms the two have split over creative differences. The source was not authorized to speak about the break publicly and requested anonymity.

Hit TV show "Glee" topped the list of nominees for the public-voted People's Choice awards announced Tuesday, while Sandra Bullock and singer Katy Perry were also among the most short-listed.

Tom Cruise maintains a close relationship with his daughter Suri despite his divorce from her mother and a hectic film schedule, the actor wrote in a court filing to support his defamation lawsuit against a magazine publisher.

The actor's two-page description of his relationship with his daughter was filed Tuesday in a case against Bauer Publishing Co. The actor is suing Bauer over a pair of 2012 tabloid stories that claimed he had "abandoned" his daughter. The stories in Life & Style and In Touch magazines cited Cruise's absence from Suri's life due to overseas film shoots.

Songwriter Dean Dillon penned hits for George Strait, George Jones, Kenny Chesney and other country music stars in his prolific career in Nashville and several of those artists honored him as the newest BMI Icon at Tuesday's BMI Country Awards.

Dillon has written more than 50 songs for Strait. The beloved singer paid homage with a medley of his Dillon-penned hits, including "The Chair," ''Marina Del Ray," and "Here For A Good Time." Chesney, Luke Bryan and Lee Ann Womack also performed some of Dillon's songs at the annual event put on by Broadcast Music, Inc., a music rights management company.

Guess who's back? Back again?
