Country music star Taylor Swift took to her MySpace blog to dish about an impromptu collaboration with her friend and fellow recording artist Kellie Pickler!   Here's what the singing beauty wrote about the song-making process: "I'm so excited, because Kellie Pickler's new album is out!! I love her. She's like a sister to me, and her album is amazing. There's a song on the album called "The Best Days of Your Life" that we actually wrote together when we were out on the Brad Paisley tour!! I sang the background vocals and Kellie nailed this song. This song came to be after a show. Kellie came storming onto my bus, fuming about something one of her ex boyfriends did. She was ranting and raving and going on and on about it, and I just said "Kellie, you're saying lyrics right now. The things you're saying are a song. Let's go write it." And so we went into the back of my tour bus and wrote this song in about 30 minutes. I'm so proud to have co-written a song on her record. I think you'll really love the album, especially "Somebody to Love Me". That's a really beautiful song. I hope you all get a chance to hear "The Best Days of Your Life", and download it on iTunes!"

In a statement he released to People magazine, Tom Hanks opens up about the Paul Newman he personally knew!   Tom said this about his 'Road to Perdition' co-star: "Paul Newman told me his hotel in Chicago was a room at the YMCA, which was not hard to imagine. He considered himself just another member of the acting company, who would call his wife during breaks and confess to feeling self-conscious on the first day of shooting. But he was Paul Newman, and could not mask the fact he was simply -- yet elegantly -- an extraordinary artist and man. How lucky we all have been." The legendary film icon passed away last Friday after a battle with cancer. He was 83.
