Ciara Hooks Up With Justin Timberlake..Again!

According to a new article published in The Observer, singer Ciara is back in the studio with her "Fantasy Ride" collaborator Justin Timberlake.

The news seems to have slipped out by mistake, since the article actually focused on Ciara's no-show at a recent party for Social Life magazine which she's currently on the cover of. According to the magazines editor Devorah Rose, the reason given for CiCi's absence was "she got an opportunity to go into the recording studio with Justin Timberlake".

Timberlake was behind two songs from Ciara's recent "Fantasy Ride" album, "G Is for Girl (A–Z)" and the worldwide hit "Love Sex Magic".

T.I.'s Re-Release Shelved!

For months, T.I. fans — and the man himself — have been talking about the re-release of his chart-topping Paper Trail album, a project intended to tide everyone over until the rapper finishes serving his 366-day prison sentence on felony weapons charges.

The reissue (tentatively titled Paper Trail: Case Closed) was supposed to feature as many as five new tracks, including collaborations with The-Dream, Ciara and first single "Remember Me," Tip's track with Mary J. Blige; a video for the song premiered Tuesday on MTV.com. There was no firm release date for the album, but various retailers had it hitting stores on August 18.

But now, in news that will likely come as a shock to T.I. fans, MTV News has learned that the Paper Trail reissue has been shelved indefinitely.

That's according to a spokesperson for T.I.'s label, Atlantic Records, who told us on Tuesday (July 14) that "the re-release is definitely not happening," and that "we plan on releasing the additional songs digitally."

There was no reason given for scrapping the reissue, nor was it clear what will happen to projects like the video T.I. shot for the song "Hell of a Life," which the rapper posted photos of on his blog just days before beginning his prison sentence. "Remember Me" is already available for download through Atlantic's online store.
