Jenny Lewis Hopes to Get “Intimate,” Debut Songs on “Acid Tongue” TourPhoto: Grimwade/WireImage Jenny Lewis was just in Australia, where she learned that sports stars trump rock stars in the fame game. “We were on an airplane with two rival rugby teams and the paparazzi were waiting not as we got off the plane but as they got off the plane,” she tells Rolling Stone. “Later, on the news, I kind of saw our crew in the background.” The Rilo Kiley singer isn’t fading into the crowd on her Acid Tongue headlining tour, a trek that has her hopping from giant festivals at

Rilo Kiley - Under The Blacklight Artist: Rilo Kiley Review: Because Rilo Kiley's More Adventurous was a triumph of the well-made narrative song, its markedly terser and beatier follow-up, which is also the band's true major-label debut, will be accused of sellout. Instead, it's yet more adventurous, a prosperous band's challenge to its comfortable cult. Always too cute for serious indie cred, Jenny Lewis slips four songs about dangerous sex in which she herself might be indulging -- right now, in her pretty prosperity -- into music that's defined...

Elvis Costello Updates Web Site, Talks “Momofuku” In a post on his newly revamped Web site, Elvis Costello confirmed his new album is named after the Momofuku Ando, the inventor of the Cup Noodle. “Like so many things in this world of wonders, all we had to do to make this record was add water,” he writes. The singer/songwriter also confirms that though the album will be available only as a double vinyl today, other mediums will follow. “You may prefer other, more portable, less scratchable, editions that will soon become available for your convenience,” Costello says. “But this is how it sounds the best: with a needle in a groove, the way the Supreme Being intended it to be.” Costello also gives an in-depth track-by-track on Momofuku, including stories behind collaborations with Roseanne Cash, Johnathan Rice and Rilo Kiley’s Jenny Lewis.

Duran Duran Get Caught in Justin Timberlake’s Unstoppable Plot To Bring Sexy Back First 50 Cent partnered with Justin Timberlake on a track about porn (“Ayo Technology”), now Duran Duran have fallen victim to JT’s SexyBack wiles. The band just shot an X-rated video featuring topless models for “Falling Down,” the first single off their November 13th album Red Carpet Massacre, the NME reports. The track, which was co-written and produced by collaboration machine Timberlake, was initially inspired by frontman Simon Le Bon’s experience recovering from a motorcycle accident in 1992. In the clip, however, the song’s dark themes are represented by a collection of beautiful naked women in rehab (the bandmembers portray doctors) and Le Bon swears this all makes sense somehow. “The concept of models in rehab has so much to do with what the song’s about,” he claims. “It’s very sad but there’s a kind of beauty in it as well. The song is about arrogance and pride, as well as personal breakdowns and the hope for redemption and the resilience of the human spirit.” Sounds … deep. We’ll have to see how it stacks up to this year’s other porn-tastic video, Rilo Kiley’s “Moneymaker.”

Single Minded: New Tracks From Nikki Sixx, Cartel, M.I.A., Rilo Kiley and Swizz Beatz featuring Coldplay Every Tuesday Single Minded highlights new tracks hitting stores (or the Web) this week. On Fridays, come back for rarities, remixes, mash-ups and more. Nikki Sixx, “Life is Beautiful” [Heroin Diaires MySpace] Mötley Crüe bassist documents destructive power of heroin in a song that recalls Papa Roach — making it the first anti-drug single to ever inspire drug use. Cartel, “Lose It” [Cartel’s Official Site] Recorded while the band was locked in a bubble, cruelly cut off from the rest of the world. Unlike every other emo band, who just think they are. M.I.A, “Boyz” [M.I.A. Official Site] Every so often, the blogs get one right. Also, boasts visual effects by Strong Bad. Rilo Kiley, “Silver Lining” [Rilo Kiley MySpace] Finally, a new Dido single!

Rilo Kiley Admit to Becoming Amateur Pornographers for “Moneymaker” VideoBe careful which porn flicks you audition for — you might inadvertently wind up in a Rilo Kiley video. The band’s indie pinup of a frontwoman, Jenny Lewis, has revealed the casting process for the band’s provocative clip for “Moneymaker,” the first single from Under the Blacklight, out August 21. “We told people they were coming in and auditioning for a porno,” the singer recalls. “We sat them down and asked them about their experiences. … We met some really interesting, nice people.” The whole process allowed Lewis to indulge one of her new interests: exploring her own increasingly loose attitudes about sex and music. “As a woman, the older I get the more comfortable I feel writing about sex and singing about it,” she explains. “Now I feel comfortable enough where I can start writing about sex — not necessarily about my own experiences, but the sexual lives of others. And the somewhat deviant sexual lives of others.”
