In her third video diary, Roc Nation singer Rita Ora takes on OutKast’s classic “Hey Ya!” as requested by her fans. But don’t expect her to shake it like a Polaroid picture with this cover. The blonde bombshell performs a stripped-down acoustic version of André 3000 and Big Boi’s 2003 Grammy-winning single. How did she do?

Those hoping for an OutKast reunion may not have to wait too much longer. While a full album remains up in the air, Big Boi reveals that the partners in rhyme could reunite for a record on his next solo album.

“I think it’s very much possible because we have L.A. Reid in our corner now, and he was the first to sign OutKast,” Big Boi told Rolling Stone.

Jive Records, which is currently home to the Atlanta duo, blocked André 3000 from appearing on Big Boi’s 2010 solo debut, Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty (Island Def Jam). Reid recently became chairman of Epic Records and would presumably be in the position to clear André’s verse.

“L.A. has permission to make it happen now,” added Big Boi. “So I hope it does, and I don’t really see why it won’t.”

Big Boi’s next solo album, tentatively titled Daddy Fat Sax: Soul Funk Crusader, will feature a collaboration with Janelle Monáe and is due for release by the end of the year.

Big Boi is busy promoting his solo record these days, so don’t expect him to tell you about OutKast’s highly-confidential new album or you may suffer the consequences.

The more visible OutKast member says he’s frequently asked about the long-awaited project from him and André 3000, but things could get ugly if he spills the beans. “When I do interviews and they ask where the OutKast album is, I have to tell them it’s top-secret information, and that me and André 3000 will have to put something to your temple if I say something about it,” he tells SPIN magazine.

The duo made a promise not to speak about their next collaborative effort until the release is near. “We made a pact that we will not disclose any information until it’s about to come out,” he reveals.

One thing that he will freely speak about is his solo debut Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty, due July 6. Listen to the remix to his first single “Shutterbugg” featuring Rick Ross below.

A very pregnant M.I.A. and her fiancé Benjamin Brewer attended GQ‘s 2008 “Men of the Year” party at the Chateau Marmont Hotel in Hollywood on Tuesday. When is the baby due?

“Sumthin’s Gotta Give” is the second single off Big Boi’s second solo album, Sir Luscious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty. View the video with Mary J. Blige below. Look out for cameos from DJ Drama, John Legend, and Hill Harper.

Big Boi is working on his second solo album, Sir Luscious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty, scheduled for release this summer. The second single off the album is a duet with Mary J. Blige called “Something’s Gotta Give” aka “The World Is Too Big.”

“It’s definitely monumental. I needed somebody that could sing with that emotion and power. Like an old-school soul singer. That Motown throat! I always wanted to work with her,” Big told MTV News on working with MJB.
