Jennifer, Demi & Alicia Visit GMA for "Five"

Hot on the promotional trail as the airing of their small screen effort quickly approaches, Jennifer Aniston, Demi Moore and Alicia Keys all paid a visit to ABC Studios in New York City earlier today (September 26).

AThe trio of lovely ladies happened to be taping an appearance on "Good Morning America" to promote their new Lifetime movie, "Five".

Set to debut on October 10th, "Five" is an anthology of five separate-yet-interconnected tales of lives affected by cancer - with Aniston, Moore and Keys among the five celebrity directors.

Of the project, Jennifer previously told Glamour magazine, "We were intrigued by the challenge of creating short stories that would defy audiences' expectation of the subject."

She added, "We wanted to balance the drama with humor and irreverence because that's what's helped our friends who've faced this get through their treatment."

Justin Bieber's Grammy Performance Will Be 'A Crossover,' Usher Says

The 'O.M.G.' singer looks forward to sharing the stage with his protégé on Sunday night.

HOLLYWOOD — At Sunday's 53rd Grammy Awards, Usher will be pulling double duty as both a nominee and a performer. Of course, given the massive year he just completed — with the success of his smash single "O.M.G." and as a mentor to rising phenom Justin Bieber — Ush's Grammy plans seem rather fitting.

Especially since he'll be performing with Bieber (and Bieber's pal Jaden Smith), a move that's just as much about celebrating Usher's successes as it is the successes of his young protégé.

"Having been through [the Grammys] so many times, you couldn't want for anything more than for your young protégé to have the opportunity to have one, so, in support of him having his moment, I wanted to be here," Usher told MTV News on Thursday, hours before his performance at the (Belvedere) RED launch party in Hollywood. "And also to be there to perform, to kind of tell the story of how we came together. This music business has definitely been good to both of us, and this year we have a lot to be happy for."

And just how will the dynamic duo tell that story? Well, Usher wasn't about to reveal all the details, but he did say that he's hoping their performance will show another side of Bieber ... a side most tend to overlook.

"The performance will be fun," Usher explained. "We want to get up there and just do what we do. Be comfortable, and have a great time. ... This is kind of a crossover for Justin. Having performed on so many different stages, this is the way that I wanted him to be seen and an opportunity to show the industry — a lot of the industry, that didn't believe [in him] — some of his other talents. He's going to play acoustically, and also, we'll get down a little bit."

And though Ush is up for a pair of Grammy awards on Sunday — Best Male R&B Vocal Performance and Best Contemporary R&B Album for Raymond v. Raymond — he's most looking forward to sharing the stage with Bieber and giving fans a look at where the young artist will be heading next.

"I'm very proud, man. I definitely saw it from the beginning, but thanks to the team that we have around us, it was made to happen. And that story has only just begun," Usher said. "The story of Justin Bieber doesn't stop with screaming girls; we need screaming fans all around the world ... a cultural experience that's much more than just fanfare. And that's what this is. That's what the Grammys will be; that's what my next phase for Justin is. This is the way I found him: I found him with a guitar in his hand, so I want him to be seen that way."

Don't miss "Snooki & Sway: Live From the Grammys," a red-carpet live stream kicking off Sunday at 6 p.m. ET on MTV.com. And stick with us all Grammy night for coverage of the red carpet, the show, the afterparties and beyond!

Supernatural ?Meet The New Boss? Recap

Supernatural returned in its seventh year tonight on the CW in an action packed season opener. Get the full recap surrounding ‘Meet The New Boss’ below. Opening with Cas surrounded by Sam, Dean and Bobby, declaring that he is God, Supernatural returned without disappointment tonight after months of waiting. After reading through the lines all summer with talk of this year’s premise and Misha Collins’ step down as a recurring character, it looked like Cas’ story as God would play out for a couple episodes, but it ended abruptly tonight, sort of. Its hard to tell what show runners are up to with their signature curve balls. Kicking off with Castiel on a mission as God with a firm hand, he coolly manages to massacre hoards of people, trying to correct the word of God, and fix those hypocritical sinners. He even gives a man his sight back, but that’s where the caring Castiel resurfaces until the last couple of minutes. Throughout the episode Dean is annoyingly stand-offish. He doesn’t expect anything good to happen from here on out and hasn’t for a while. Drinking and watching his favorite genre on a laptop, Dean tries to escape reality, and the [...]
