ABC/Image Group LAWant to win a private concert with Sheryl Crow? All you have to do is be proactive about your health.

All you have to do to enter is set a date for your annual breast screening by September 20. Ten winners will be chosen.

The Shawn Mendes Foundation Musicmaster guitar, a collaboration between Shawn’s charity organization and guitar manufacturer Fender out today, is adorned with a vintage pressed flower design created by a fan.

“The body of the Shawn Mendes Musicmaster is a literal work of art -- boasting a fan's rendition of an intricate floral design,” the description on the Fender website reads, adding, “But it doesn’t just look like a dream -- it plays like one.”

Sales from the guitar will go to benefit the Shawn Mendes Foundation, which Shawn launched last year to inspire his fans to advocate for issues important to them and work to bring about positive change in the world.

The foundation supports a variety of different youth-focused causes in the fields of healthcare, mental health and wellness, human rights, education, anti-bullying and sustainability.

The Shawn Mendes Foundation Musicmaster is available for $749.99 on the Fender website.

Whitney Houston biopic nabbed by Sony for 2022 release

Frederic REGLAIN/Gamma-Rapho via Getty ImagesThe upcoming Whitney Houston biopic has landed a studio, and a tentative release date.

According to Deadline, Sony’s TriStar Pictures has won the bidding for I Wanna Dance with Somebody and is laying claim to a Thanksgiving, 2022 release date. Sony reportedly beat out around six streaming companies and studios to score the project.

Music producer and Whitney’s mentor Clive Davis is producing the film, which has the blessing of the Whitney Houston Estate. Stella Meghie, whose most recent film is The Photograph, is on board to direct, with Bohemian Rhapsody scribe Anthony McCarten writing the script and co-producing.

The producers previously described the movie as a "joyous, emotional and heart-breaking celebration," while still being "very frank about the price that super-stardom exacted" from Whitney.

Whitney passed away in 2012 at the age of 48.

Alanis Morissette explores family at a cellular level in "Ablaze" video

Epiphany MusicAlanis Morissette’s new video for her song “Ablaze” is a family affair.

The singer enlists her husband Mario “Souleye” Treadway and three young children for the clip, which was shot at their home. As Alanis sings, we see clips of the kids playing in the backyard, as well as in a toy-filled playroom.

The song itself seems to be an ode to Alanis' children, with each verse addressing her two sons and one daughter with the overarching message, “My mission is to keep the light in your eyes ablaze.”

During the video, Alanis brings out a giant microscope and when she looks through it, she sees her family dressed up as cells to coincide with the lyric, “We seem to easily forget we are made of the same cells.”

“Ablaze” appears on Alanis’ new album, Such Pretty Forks in the Road. On August 22, she’s launching Such Pretty Forks in the Room, a virtual escape experience. For info on tickets, go to MissionEscapeGames.com/Anaheim/Alanis.

Katy Perry defends Ellen DeGeneres amid controversy: "Only positive takeaways"

Kevin Mazur/WireImageWhile a few stars -- Brad Garrett and Lea Thompson, specifically -- have gone on record confirming some negative stories that have been reported regarding Ellen DeGeneres and her talk show, Katy Perry is stepping up to defend the host and the program.
"I know I can’t speak for anyone else’s experience besides my own but I want to acknowledge that I have only ever had positive takeaways from my time with Ellen & on the @theellenshow," Katy tweeted.
"I think we all have witnessed the light & continual fight for equality that she has brought to the world through her platform for decades," Katy continued. "Sending you love & a hug, friend."
By and large, the responses to Katy's message were negative, with her fans asking Katy to check her privilege, nothing that "of course" she would have been treated well, being a huge star. The employees of The Ellen DeGeneres Show who have spoken out about experiencing misconduct, racism and intimidation in the workplace, and an internal investigation has been launched.
Following the claims, DeGeneres issued an email to her staff, obtained by ABC News, in which she wrote, in part, "As we've grown exponentially, I've not been able to stay on top of everything and relied on others to do their jobs as they knew I'd want them done.”
"Clearly some didn't," the message continues. "That will now change and I'm committed to ensuring this does not happen again."

Katy Perry confirms baby was planned last October: "We...just decided"

Liza VoloshinBecause Katy Perry announced her pregnancy prior to marrying her fiance Orlando Bloom, some fans have wondered whether or not the baby was planned. Turns out the answer is an enthusiastic "yes."
"I was really specific about this year,” Katy tells the U.K.'s Sunday Times. “I told my management, ‘I’m gonna get pregnant, I wanna have a baby, I have a great contender, finally, and I wanna put this record out.’ It was planned."
"We went to Egypt in October for my birthday and just decided," she adds. "I’ve always been so fond of the way [Orlando] is with [his son] Flynn that I think my primal nature is like, ‘Yes, go.’” In fact, Katy says she even asks Orlando's ex-wife Miranda Kerr, Flynn's mom, for "all the tips" because Kerr has three children.
As for her baby daddy, Katy tells The Times, "He’s very sensitive. Very emotionally evolved. He gets up at 7 a.m. and chants for an hour. One of the things that binds us is our desire to be more spiritually evolved, and our desire to investigate that realm...we love mysticism, conspiracies, aliens, all that stuff. We love an adventure of the mind. That’s definitely something we are bound by.”
In fact, Katy says she's happy to admit that Orlando's "unconditional love saved me," and inspired her to go on "an emotional, spiritual, psychological journey."
"I’ve been through the journey, now I’m just enjoying the ride," she adds. "I’m [no longer] a thirsty, desperate pop star that has to reach certain numbers in order to feel worthy.”
Katy and Orlando's baby girl is due any day now. Her new album Smile is out August 28.

Taylor Swift reacts to "folklore" breaking multiple records

David Hogan © 2020 TAS Rights Management LLCYou'd think Taylor Swift would be used to breaking records by now but she sure doesn't show it.
The 30-year-old singer recently dropped her eighth studio album, folklore, and proceeded to break some pretty impressive Billboard records -- some of which never even existed up until now. The chart-ranking magazine shared her new accomplishments in a tweet on Monday.
"[Taylor Swift's] "Cardigan" officially debuts at No. 1 on this week's #Hot100 chart," Billboard tweeted, adding,"This is the first time in history that an artist has debuted at No. 1 on both the #Hot100 and #Billboard200 in the same week."
So how did Swift respond to the news? By retweeting the post and attaching a gif of Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson looking ahead in shock with the phrase "OH MY GOD" superimposed on it.
That's not the only reason the country artist turned pop star has to celebrate, though. She is also the first to ever have two songs debut in the top four spots on the Hot 100, thanks to "cardigan" at No. 1 and "the 1" at No. 4.
Additionally, her song "exile," featuring Bon Iver, debuted at No. 6 on the chart making her the first person to ever have three songs in the top six slots.
folklore has also helped Swift take the lead for most records to appear on the Billboard Hot 100. Billboard reports that she now has had 113 tracks make it on the chart, which surpasses the previous record holder Nicki Minaj, who has 110.
Looks like the COVID-19 lockdown has paid off quite well for Swift.
