Bieber’s manager Scooter Braun also spoke with Billboard about the next album, where he explained Justin was focused on writing his own songs.

“He’s pretty adamant about writing a lot of [the album],” Braun said. “And he played me some stuff that he’s been doing on his own. He wrote this amazing song that sounds like a Jodeci record. I’m really excited for him. This kid can sing his ass off. He’s coming into his own.”

At least that’s what Will.i.am says. The Black Eyed Peas member is encouraging Bieber to take charge of his career and write his own music.

He tells Los Angeles DJ Ryan Seacrest, “I want to get Justin Bieber into writing his own music and producing his own songs…”

“Justin as an artist has to fight. Michael Jackson fought, Prince fought, the ones that stood around for a long time are the ones that are always fighting for something.”

Will.i.am is producing Bieber’s next album, and he is encouraging the young pop star to get involved with all aspects of his career.

He adds, “He’s gonna hurt. He’s going to go through relationship drama… We know the ones that get comfortable and then their career is short, ‘Oh I remember that one song he had, that was cool.’”

Yes you read that headline correctly – “Jersey Shore’s” “Snooki” Pollizi is writing a book. No, we are not kidding.

The MTV star is expected to release her first book, tentatively titled A “Shore Thing,” in January, publisher Simon & Schuster announced Wednesday.

We have no clue exactly what the book will be about, however based on what we do know about Snooki, it will be a “thought provoking” read. We look forward to reading it and probably losing even more respect for Snook.

What do you think about this recent Snooki development.

As the saying goes, you know you’ve made it once you’re on The Simpsons. Well, after a few years climbing the ranks of stardom, Seth Rogen is finally there.

Much like the rest of his career, Rogen is taking charge. He co-wrote the script for his character in the 21st season of the acclaimed cartoon, becoming only the second celebrity to do so (next to Ricky Gervais.) The season premier, “Homer the Whopper”, aired on Sunday night, and featured Rogen as the gym trainer who helped Homer get in shape for his upcoming movie role as “Everyman”, written by the Comic Book Guy, Perez Hilton reports.

Other celebrities appearing on this season of The Simpsons inclue Chris Martin (Coldplay), Sarah Silverman, Anne Hathaway, Jonah Hill and Neve Campbell.

Rogen said The Simpsons has always been something of “a Holy Grail” and he can “die a happy man now” having made the credits of the show.

Rogen has been busy otherwise gearing up for his role as the Green Hornet, another screenplay he wrote alongside Evan Goldberg (Superbad, Pineapple Express). The film, directed by Michael Gondry (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind), was pushed back to a December 2010 release date.
