Simple Plan on Kids’ Choice Awards 2011

AUTHOR: Dominika | 3. April 2011 | no comments

One of the biggest events of the entertainment industry, took place in LA yesterday – the Kids’ Choice Awards 2011, which were hosted by Jack Black this year. As always, many famous celebrities arrived to take part in this event: to name few, you could spot Miley Cyrus, The Black Eyed Peas or Paris Hilton in the attendance. And because the guys from Simple Plan had a day off and were in the LA area, they also decided to visit the Kids’ Choice Awards.

Check out the first pictures from the Kids’ Choice Awards in our gallery:

Plus, thanks to SPE here is the first photo from the shooting of Canada Sings, the singing competition, in which Pierre from Simple Plan has been cast as one of the judges, along with Janne Arden and Vanilla Ice:

Shooting of the Can’t Keep My Hands Off You video

Currently, the boys from Simple Plan are in Los Angeles, USA, where – 2 days ago – they attended a photoshoot for the cover of their new album that comes out on June 21st. The photographer of the photoshoot is nobody else than Chapman Baehler, who has worked with Simple Plan many times in the past – you may remember his work on the second Simple Plan album artwork – Still Not Getting Any. Pierre has also mentioned their work on the new photoshoot in his latest Bubbletweet, that you can check out here.

Yesterday, the guys started shooting their first music video – Can’t Keep My Hands Off You. And here I would like to clear something up: even though the guys have released this song and it is available for purchase, the official press release clearly states it is not the first Simple Plan’s single. Pierre himself cleared the rumours up on his Twitter, saying: “No it’s not an official single. It’s more like a gift to the fans that have been waiting for so long.”

Yet the guys are still making a music video for this song. And it seems like it should all be in prom spirit, as the music video will be promoting the new Disney movie “Prom”. First pictures of last night’s shooting, which appeared on Twitter, have also confirmed this information:

Below you can check out the trailer for the forementioned movie “Prom”, on which soundtrack Simple Plan’s “Can’t Keep My Hands Off You” will appear:

Update:

Andrea Kelley has confirmed via her Twitter to be one of the extras in the Can’t Keep My Hands Off You video (thanks to Jennie for letting us know). Andrea has previously appeared in an uncredited role in the Ron Howard’s adaptation of Dan Brown’s book “Angels And Demons”).

According to one of her tweets concerning the Simple Plan music video: “We’re filming at a school and apparently I’m a way bigger hit to high school boys now, then I was when I was in high school.”

Simple Plan have really invited a huge amount of amazing artists, songwriters and producers to make their 4th studio album the best yet. Another confirmed songwriter – Toby Gad – has (according to his official website) co-worked on more than one new Simple Plan song.

Toby Gad is a famous American song-writer and producer, who has written many hit songs for artists like Beyoncé (“If I Were a Boy”), Enrique Iglesias, Ricky Martin, Demi Lovato, The Veronicas (“Untouched”) and others. One of his greatest success is definitely a song nominated for the prestigious Grammy award: “Big Girls Don’t Cry”, by Fergie.

Yesterday, Toby has published a new picture of him, PIerre and Chuck from Simple Plan back from when they worked together in LA on the new SP album. Make sure to check out the picture in its full size in the gallery:

And, I’m still keeping the best for the end: in the video below, you can check out not only a recap of Toby’s most successful singles and all his collaborations, but also few shots of what it looks like when one is “co-writing” with Simple Plan:

PHOTOS: Faber Drive collaborate with Simple Plan

As you already know, the canadian band Faber Drive invited the boys from Simple Plan – namely Pierre and Chuck, to help them co-write some songs for their upcoming third studio record. Yesterday, the boys met again and this time also published a short article about it on their blog and added two photos from a 10-minutes log video of their writing session – hopefully we will once get to see it too:

Yesterday we met Chuck and Pierre from Simple Plan at our hotel and spent the afternoon and evening in one of the rooms working on a new tune. We have nothing but awesome things to say about those guys and their talent as writers!! Stoked for their new album coming out soon!

One thing I noticed was how crazy fast the sun goes down here. We shot a 10 min iPhone vid of us working and below is a screen shot of the start of the video, and one of the end of the video. It pretty much went from daylight to night in about 10 min flat!!!
