While she's keeping the name of the tune a mystery, Katy Perry is tweeting about what fans can expect from the next video off her Teenage Dream album.
"About to start sparkling in my new music video," she tweeted on Tuesday, adding later on, "And that's a 6am wrap! Need to recharge now so I sparkle just as much for tomorrow. I gotta show em what I'm worth. Make them go ahhhh!"
She updated fans on the clip's progress on Wednesday, writing, "Day TWO of music video! Not gonna stop shooting till the sun comes up cause we are a LIGHT in a dark place!" She wrapped the shoot late Wednesday, giving some more hints at what the video and the song might be. "I want to thank all the magical people that brought their sparks to this video the past few days ... your light reminded me of my purpose."
The pop star has been open about wanting to create eye-popping videos for this album, which she's hoping to support with a flashy new stage show. "I guess I'm looking forward to making music videos on this new album ... and I'm really excited about incorporating the look and the idea of some of the songs on tour and making a massive production of it," Perry told MTV News. "I'm gonna want a lot of visuals. I want it to be 10 times better than when I was on tour last."
While nothing is confirmed, the hints about the new clip might lead fans to think that Perry's next single could be the track "Firework," which she's said is her favorite song on Teenage Dream.
"People are coming back and almost adopting it as their own anthem, and it's hard, I think, to write an anthem that's not cheesy," she explained. "And I hope that this could be something in that category. I hope this could be one of those things where it's like, 'Yeah, I want to put my fist up and feel proud and feel strong.'
"But I also don't want to be cheesy," she reiterated. "It's a fine line, and I think 'Firework' ... would be like the opus or my one song — if I had to pick a song to play — 'cause it has a great beat. But it also has a fantastic message."
What Katy Perry song do you want her to make a video for next? Talk about it in the comments.

Filed under: Reality-Free, TV Previews, Fall TV
When 'Law & Order: Los Angeles' premieres tonight (10PM ET on NBC), it will be the first time in over 20 years that the mothership show, 'Law & Order,' isn't on the air. Instead, the familiar "chung-chung" sound will be heard on 'SVU,' 'Criminal Intent' (on USA) and this newest edition.
Set amid the bright lights of Hollywood and the gritty streets of South Central, the show stars Skeet Ulrich, Terrence Howard and Alfred Molina, Rachel Ticotin, Corey Stoll and more as the cops and prosecutors charged with dispensing justice in L.A.
'LOLA' kicks off with a crossover from its sibling, 'SVU,' which premieres tonight at 9PM ET. Mariska Hargitay's Olivia Benson heads to Los Angeles for a case about the "backlog of untested rape kits," she told E! News.

Reports: Lindsay Lohan Checks Into Rehab
Access Hollywood Lindsay Lohan has checked into rehab, according to multiple online reports. A call to Lohan's attorney by Access Hollywood on Tuesday was not immediately returned.
KTLA.com and TMZ both reported the actress had checked into a treatment facility, but it was unclear whether she checked in on Monday night or Tuesday morning.
Discussion: Access Hollywood - CelebuzzWhat We Can Learn from the Awkward 'Australia's Next Top Model' Finale (Video)
Yeeeeeesh. I don't normally watch Australia's Next Top Model (mainly because American TV is enough for me to handle as-is, and America's Next Top Model is enough models vying to be next on top as-is) but I'm glad someone pointed me toward last night's Australian Top Model finale, because it manages to top even Tyra's most epic awkwardness, and is so second-hand embarrassing that it will turn your heart upside-down and throw it across the planet. (Look! Now your heart is in Australia.)Before a live studio audience at the finale, Aussie-NTM host Sarah Murdoch announced the wrong winner. Who then gave an acceptance speech. And consoled and hugged the "loser," who gave a consolation speech. And THEN Sarah got word in her earpiece that she had announced the wrong winner. Australia's Next Top WHOOPS! Watch what happened (spoiler alert if you watch this show, duh):

Kanye West To Perform On 'Saturday Night Live'

Kanye West will appear as the musical guest on the October 2 episode of "Saturday Night Live," which will be hosted by "Breaking Bad" star Bryan Cranston. The high-profile appearance, which NBC confirmed to MTV News on Tuesday (September 21) morning, will come less than a month after West closed out the VMAs with the debut of a new song, "Runaway."
West may have dissed the show in his track "Power" — where he raps, "F--- 'SNL' and the whole cast. Tell 'em Yeezy said they can kiss my whole ass" — but it doesn't seem that the bookers minded very much. West's last "SNL" appearance came during its 2007 season premiere; he also appeared in a sketch during that episode, which was hosted by NBA star LeBron James. There is no word on whether he will act during this upcoming appearance.
West appears to be settling scores in 2010. During his VMA appearance, he laid to rest the Taylor Swift incident from a year prior. She too seemed to be putting the skirmish behind them in her new song, the tentatively titled "Innocent." During the year between West's interruption of Swift's Best Female Video acceptance speech at the 2009 VMAs and the beef-squashing earlier this month, both Swift and former beau Taylor Lautner appeared on "SNL" (on separate occasions) and took a few shots at the rapper.
West is the latest high-profile musical act added to the NBC show's lineup. Katy Perry is set to perform on the show's season premiere on September 25, which will be hosted by "SNL" alum Amy Poehler.
USA Today reports that Bruno Mars, who was arrested over the weekend for alleged cocaine possession, is set to perform on the October 9 episode of "SNL," which "Glee" star Jane Lynch will host.

House can't keep Cuddy locked away in his fortress forever. "Selfish" is the writer's answer to the question of how "Huddy" will function once they return to work. This episode puts us right back to where fans feel the most comfortable: at the hospital and with a great case for House to work on. Each member of House's team, minus the absent Thirteen, has an opinion, or lack of an opinion on House's relationship. I can't help but wonder if this was the writer's version of their divided audience members' opinions on the direction the series has taken in light of the House/Cuddy pairing: "in favor, indignant, and indifferent." This episode easily could have been called "Selfless," but that would have made us all use our brains a little less. In typical House fashion, the writers challenged us to question if being selfish is actually healthier than being selfless. Clinic (Selfish Exhibit A)
This week's return to the clinic opened with a bang. Granted, House is being somewhat friendlier, but his barbs haven't softened in the wake of his good mood. He's still throwing some amazing zingers at his ancient patient, telling him he has a bad case of "natural causes." Both the patient and his son served to reinforce the idea that coming clean with clear intentions and honesty, even at the risk of hurting one another, would have been better than the lies and omissions handed out to spare hurt feelings. This father and son pair were very similar to another pair of clinic patients, also senior citizens. In the season one episode, "Love Hurts," two older patients didn't want to tell the other that they both wanted less sex. Afraid of hurt feelings, they each went to House separately to deliver messages and manipulate the other and in the end realized they should have just been honest with each other.
Lauren Conrad's Road Back To Reality TV
After time off to build her empire — books, fashion lines, cosmetics contracts and more — 'The Hills' star is ready to make another MTV hit.

Since she left "The Hills" in 2009, Lauren Conrad seemed to welcome her time away from the spotlight. But in a surprise move last week, she announced plans to return to MTV in a new docu-series about launching her latest fashion line. So what brought about LC's change of heart?
Although the reality starlet had popped up as a guest judge on "America's Next Top Model" and made one last appearance on the "Hills" finale aftershow in July, she was in no hurry to begin documenting her life again for public consumption. Instead, she focused on other projects, including a clothing line with Kohl's called LC Lauren Conrad and two novels, "L.A. Candy" and "Sweet little Lies." The third in the series, "Sugar and Spice," comes out next week, as does her fashionista guide, "Lauren Conrad Style."
Earlier this year, when we asked her about returning to television, LC was hesitant, saying that her plate was already full. And it was a sentiment she had previously shared when we caught up with her in June '09, shortly after she walked away from her hit MTV show.
"I wouldn't do a show like 'The Hills,' " she told MTV News at the time. "Nothing with my personal life, but possibly something hosting. I think I have a little bit of time to figure out what I'm going to do next."
Over time, however, it seems LC was softening to the idea. In February, she said that while she wasn't ready to make the leap back to the small screen, she wouldn't rule out behind-the-scenes opportunities.
"The only other thing I'd love to do right now is producing," she explained. "I'm just kind of looking for the perfect project because I think the first thing I do I really have to love, so I want to wait until I really have enough time to commit to a series."
That project turned out to be her own documentary series, which will put her back in front of the camera. "I am so excited to be rejoining the MTV family," Lauren said in a statement about her new TV venture. "The new project will follow me as I develop my new contemporary line and also touch on my other businesses."
At least LC has one great lesson she learned from her previous forays into reality TV. "I didn't learn a thing! I'm the same as I went in," she joked back in July. "I learned not to take yourself seriously!"
Are you excited that LC is returning to MTV in her own show? Tell us in the comments!
