Alanis Morissette Gives Her Thanks To Prince Of Persia

Alanis Morissette

Thank U, Gyllenhaal. Thank U, synergy. Thank U, corporate resurgence! Alanis Morissette was on hand for the Prince Of Persia premiere in LA last night, having recorded “I Remain,” the track that plays over the film’s closing credits. “I saw a screening of the movie and immediately felt compelled to write a song within 10 minutes,” she told USA Today. “It wrote itself.” Funny, we just assumed the producers remembered her bombastic City Of Angels track “Uninvited” when they needed something vaguely middle eastern for the credits, but her version seems a lot more flattering. Maybe she can make a whole album based on summer blockbuster video game adaptations! Look forward to her “A World Of Crafted War” in 2011.

An event honoring producer Jerry Bruckheimer coincided with the Persia premiere, giving pec-powered Persia star Jake Gyllenhaal the chance to mingle with action heroes like Tom Cruise, Nicolas Cage and Bruce Willis. See photos of these stars and more in the gallery below (is it just us or does Billy Bob Thornton look like the dad from Gossip Girl these days?).

Top 10 Diss Songs In Pop Music

With a raspberry and plenty of nyah nyah nyahs, “So What” has put Pink back where she belongs — on top of the charts. And so what, indeed, to her ex-husband Carey Hart, referred to in unfavorable terms throughout the song. Pink isn’t the only one to turn her pain into artistic profit. As Kid Rock explains in “Half Your Age,” “You thought I was just gonna sit back and take it on the chin / But honey, I’m a songwriter …” Here are ten other tracks that prove revenge is a dish best set to music. — Charles Bottomley

10. “Survivor” (2001)

Slingin’ mud: Destiny’s Child, multi-platinum for Beyonce Knowles and other hirelings.

Smeared! LeToya Luckett and LaTavia Roberson, who were unceremoniously booted from the band in 2000.

Ouch! “You thought I wouldn’t sell without you / Sold nine million.”

See you in court? Oh yes. Luckett and Roberson sued Beyonce and her father manager, claiming the lyrics violated a confidentiality agreement.

Five Music Videos For Cheaters

There’s been a lot of hanky panky going around in Hollywood lately. It’s been alleged, for instance, that David Duchovny cheated on wife Tea Leoni by volleying private parts with his tennis instructor — a rumor he vehemently denies. It’s also been alleged that he’s divorcing Leoni because she played a similar game with Billy Bob Thornton. Then there’s Balthazar Getty hooking up with Sienna Miller (a.k.a, the SLUT), Paris Hilton shaking her bony ass for Prince William and rumors of Justin “Bobby” Brescia hooking up with Lauren Conrad behind Audrina Patridge‘s back. The nerve!

In light of sneaky sexual relations, we’ve culled together five music videos of the “Me And Mrs. Jones” variety. Watch them all after the jump.
