Drake has been a busy man of late.

Whether he's filming scenes for Anchorman 2, posing with Jay-Z in the studio or making a music video for DJ Khaled's new song, the rapper is everywhere!

It's the latter project that's going viral now, though, thanks to a photo posted on Instagram from the set of the video for Khaled's “No New Friends" ...

A photo of Jay-Z and Drake in the studio has surfaced online, prompting speculation that the two may be collaborating on music together. Check it out:

The photo of the stars was posted by producer Lenny S, who wrote: “Warning: Please be very afraid of the music we’re working on. OVO x ROCNATION.”

It’s unknown where the collab will end up, but signs are pointing toward Jay’s new LP. His last solo album, The Blueprint 3, was released in 2009.

Drake is also working on a new album, however, and the two worked together on "Light Up” off Drake’s debut album Thank Me Later, so who knows!

The pic has also sparked chatter that Jay has chosen a side in Chris Brown and Drake’s alleged rivalry over Rihanna, but that's likely reading into it a bit.

Or a lot.

Britney Spears is feeling kinda blue these days ... but the new song she released for The Smurfs 2 is totally not. Take a listen to the upbeat track below!

Britney Spears - Ooh La La (Smurfs 2)

The singer's whimsical vocals are layered atop upbeat electro beats as a rollicking guitar strums in and out. Vintage Britney ... with a Smurfs twist!

The first Smurfs movie opened in 2011 to little fanfare, but shocked box-office watchers when it became a bona fide hit and earned $563 million worldwide.

The sequel and its higher expectations arrive in theaters on July 31.

In related news, Katy Perry is set to return as the voice of Smurfette.

Mariah Carey went from the judging table to the stage on last night's American Idol finale.

The panelist - who will almost certainly be replaced next season - belted out a medley of hits and reminded fans why she is the most successful female vocalist in the history of music.

From "Hero" to "We Belong Together" to her latest single "#Beautiful," Carey was on top her lyrically impressive game.

Watch her do her talented thing now and then also check out former judge Jennifer Lopez and her finale rendition of "Live It Up."

Mariah Carey Medley - American Idol Finale

She didn't take back her judging chair, but Jennifer Lopez did return to American Idol last night.

The beloved former judge performed with Pitbull on stage, moving and shaking and singing along to the track "Live It Up."

How did she do? Do you want to see J. Lo come back as a panelist? And is there any chance Season 12 champion Candice Glover can find this kind of commercial success?

Ponder those questions as you watch Lopez in action now:
