Sarah Jessica Parker Time Travels For 'Sex And The City' Sequel (But Not Really)
Much of the recent "Sex and the City" sequel talk has focused on the so-called adaptation of "The Carrie Diaries," but don't be so quick to dismiss a third theatrical outing for Carrie Bradshaw and her merry band of New York socialites!

Cobra Starship Call Fueled By Ramen 'An Alt-Family'

Cobra Starship joined forces with Fueled by Ramen in 2006, with the release of their debut disc While the City Sleeps, We Rule the Streets. Since then, they've fashioned a rather fascinating career as FBR outsiders, the kind of band not averse to the occasional beard-heavy skit or "Gossip Girl"-enhanced hit.
But on Friday, they'll make nice with their FBR mates as part of the label's 15th anniversary showcase at New York's Terminal 5 (tonight's show, featuring Paramore, will stream live on MTV.com beginning at 6:30 p.m. ET). But that doesn't mean they still don't feel a little weird about doing it.
"I know nothing else to compare it to, but, yeah, it doesn't feel like the way I thought a label would be like," guitarist Ryland Blackinton told MTV News. "It's like an alt-family; like, we have lesbian moms ... I just watched 'The Birdcage,' and it's like that. We're like the straight son in 'The Birdcage.' "
Though they may joke about feeling out of place on Fueled by Ramen, the Cobras are dead serious when they say there's no other label they'd rather call home. After all, FBR has supported them every step of their careers, and, in a lot of ways, grown with them — from "Snakes on a Plane" to their just-released Night Shades album and current hit "You Make Me Feel ... ."
Of course, as is the case with everything Cobra Starship, the term "dead serious" is relative.
"My image of a label was, like, big corporate guys in suits, cold," bassist Alex Suarez laughed. "Like the Death Star, but with offices."
"It's not like that though," Blackinton added. "It's more like down on Tatooine, by Jabba's lair. A little homier, some peat on the fireplace. You know, comfortable. It's nice."
Help MTV celebrate Fueled by Ramen's 15th anniversary tonight as we present a live party featuring some of your favorite FBR acts, including Paramore. Check out MTV.com at 6:30 p.m. ET to catch all the action!

Mary J. Blige Dishes On Her 'Crazy' Led Zeppelin Covers
'I've listened to their music since I was a child,' says the R&B diva, who recorded 'Stairway to Heaven' and 'Whole Lotta Love.'

You wouldn't peg Mary J Blige as the black-light-and-tapestry sort, but, as has become readily apparent in recent weeks, she absolutely loves Led Zeppelin.
In early February, reports began circulating that Blige had re-recorded Zeppelin's classic "Stairway to Heaven," working with Travis Barker, "American Idol" judge Randy Jackson and guitarist Steve Vai on the track, which is slated to appear on the international reissue of her Stronger With Each Tear album, due Monday.
But after she had recorded "Stairway," Blige continued to get the Led out, covering another Zeppelin classic — the thunderous "Whole Lotta Love" — for the album too. And when MTV News caught up with her on the Essence Black Women in Hollywood red carpet, she told us all about channeling her inner Robert Plant for the tracks, a process that came much easier than you'd probably imagine.
"I did Led Zeppelin's 'Stairway to Heaven' and 'Whole Lotta Love' — it's crazy," she said. "I am a Led Zeppelin fan. I'm not going to say I've been to their concerts, but I've listened to their music since I was a child, and it's always moved me, especially 'Stairway to Heaven,' and 'Whole Lotta Love' is just fun."
Blige also said she recorded another new song — a "club record" called "I Can't Wait" — for the re-release. And while it's only slated to hit shelves outside the U.S., she hopes her fans will get a chance to hear all the new songs pretty soon.
"I want y'all to hear it," she laughed.
