MATT SORUM, KISS, STEVEN TYLER Guests In New Adopt The Arts PSA

According to Ultimateclassicrock.com, Adopt The Arts, an organization co-founded by former drummer Matt Sorum (VELVET REVOLVER, ex-GUNS N’ ROSES), has created a public service announcement (PSA) in the hopes of saving arts programs in public schools. The organization was created in March as a response to the decision by the Los Angeles Unified School District to eliminate all funding for elementary school arts programs.

The issue is close to Sorum’s heart. His mother is a music teacher and he credits his time in his school choir and orchestra as responsible for his success as a musician. He also cites studies that suggest that, without the creative outlet given by music and arts programs, children suffer academically.

The PSA stars actress Jane Lynch, who is also on Adopt the Arts’ board as an arts teacher encouraging her students, as well as Sorum, KISS and AEROSMITH’s Steven Tyler. Check out the PSA below:

AEROSMITH Singer To Wed For Third Time?

According to TMZ.com, AEROSMITH singer Steven Tyler recently proposed to his longtime girlfriend Erin Brady.

Brady, 38, was spotted wearing a diamond ring on her wedding finger during a Christmas vacation with Tyler in Hawaii and sources tell TMZ.com she’s set to become the singer’s third wife.

Previously an accountant for Tyler on tour, Brady told Oprah Winfrey in a recent interview that although she bore witness to the worst of Steven‘s bad-boy behavior, she knew his ways could be reformed and she wanted to be the one to do it.

“I saw him, how he behaved… badly,” she said, according to ETOnline.com, telling Oprah she had to step up to the plate as the womanizing continued when their relationship became romantic. Her strategy was to “play” as he would when Tyler would stray, which he admits was a wake-up call and an instigator towards treating the women of his life with the respect they deserve.

“There was some behavior I am ashamed of and I shouldn’t have done,” Steven explained. When asked bluntly if he believed he could remain monogamous with Erin, Tyler confidently replied that he could. “I don’t want to hurt anybody again,” he said. “For all the divorces I’ve had I’ve hurt those girls deeply.”

Steven and Erin have been dating for five years, since Tyler divorced Teresa Barrick.

He was also married to Cyrinda Foxe from 1978 to 1987. Source: Blabbermouth.net

AEROSMITH frontman Steven Tyler has tapped the Norwegian-born, Los Angeles-based director and photographer Ray Kay (pictured on left; real name: Reinert K. Olsen) to helm the video for the first solo single of Tyler‘s entire career, a poppy tune called “(It) Feels So Good”. The video shoot will take place in Los Angeles and will feature “a lovely, sexy summer feel,” Kay tells VG Nett.

“I’ve always been a fan of AEROSMITH,” Kay says. “[so] I am really looking forward to working with [Steven].

He adds, “This video will probably get extra attention in both the United States since it is [Tyler‘s] debut as a solo artist, and since he is a judge on ‘American Idol’, and the video will be premiered there.”

Kay tells VG Nett that he has already established a good rapport with Tyler, who has previously struggled with substance abuse issue . The two have been bouncing ideas back and forth and Tyler has been on the phone with the director in between “American Idol” broadcasts to talk about the upcoming video shoot.

“It’s amazing to see a 63-year-old with as much energy as him, especially when one has seen and experienced as much as he has,” Kay says. “He is still as enthusiastic about this video as he was about the first video he made a long ago time with AEROSMITH.”

Ray has previously created sleek cinematic music videos for music’s biggest stars, such as BRITNEY SPEARS, LADY GAGA, JUSTIN BIEBER, BEYONCE, DIDDY and ENRIQUE IGLESIAS. His love of music combined with a strong sense of fashion and eye for beauty has earned him numerous video awards. He has been featured many times on MTV and BET‘s “Making The Video” shows. Ray is also a successful photographer, shooting editorials, advertising and album packaging in both Europe and the U.S.

Ray Kay‘s music video for JUSTIN BIEBER‘s “Baby” is currently the most viewed video ever, of any kind, on YouTube, with over 500 million views. All in all, his videos have been watched over 1 billion times on YouTube.

On May 3, Tyler will release his autobiography, “Does the Noise in My Head Bother You?” and it will be accompanied by “(It) Feels So Good”. “I can hear it coming out of people’s cars this summer,” he told Rolling Stone magazine.

Catch the premiere of “It Feels So Good” on Ryan Seacrest‘s show May 9 and pick it up on iTunes the following day (May 10).

An audio sample of “It Feels So Good” is available at Amazon.com.
