Oscar winner Gwyneth Paltrow signs with Atlantic Records

Actress Gwyneth Paltrow, who played a country singer in the film "Country Strong," has signed a deal with Atlantic Records, The Wrap reported Tuesday.

The financial terms of the deal were not released, but it is believed that Paltrow's deal is worth $900,000. The label said her debut album is due later this year.

Paltrow, 38, is married to Chris Martin, lead singer of Coldplay, who are signed to EMI.

She recently showed off her singing skills on "Glee," at the Country Music Awards, at the Grammys -- where she writhed in a tight black bodysuit on a baby grand piano to perform "Forget You" with Cee Lo Green -- and at the Oscars, where she performed the nominated song "Coming Home."

A source told the New York Post that people who have heard Paltrow's music described it as "country pop."

Atlantic's roster includes Sean Paul, B.o.B, T.I., James Blunt, Janelle Monae, Zero 7, Phil Collins and Kid Rock.

Paltrow returns to "Glee" on Tuesday night to reprise her role of substitute teacher Holly Holiday. Songs planned for the episode include Prince's "Kiss," Joan Jett's "Do You Wanna Touch Me (Oh Yeah)" and Fleetwood Mac's "Landslide."

Lady GaGa Breaks 20-Million Single Sales Barrier

LADY GAGA might as well start building her own FT. KNOX, as the RIAA has recognized her as the highest-certified artist of digital singles in Gold & Platinum history with 20 million downloads sold.

The breakdown of her massive sales, printed in the RIAA's FEBRUARY Gold & Platinum certifications report, went as follows:

"Just Dance" 6x multi-Platinum
"Poker Face" 5x multi-Platinum
"Bad Romance" 4x multi-Platinum
"Paparazzi" 3x multi-Platinum

At 6x multi-Platinum, the GAGA's "Just Dance" ties the BLACK EYED PEAS’ "I Gotta Feeling" as the RIAA’s highest digital song certification in G&P program history.

Not far behind those two acts are RIHANNA and TAYLOR SWIFT whose digital single certification tallies are currently 19 million and 18.5 million, respectively.

Britney Spears On Her New Album, Her Favorite Music and Working With will.i.am

Do your kids like the new record? What have they said about it?
Yes. They definitely dance to it but its kind of funny because they are still confused .... It’s like, ‘who is this Britney Spears singer in contrast to mommy?’

How has your involvement in the record-making process changed over the years?
I have always been heavily involved in every album I have ever made. I'm very stubborn when it comes to recording and will only record songs I love, which is why it takes me a long time to make an album. I have to feel connected before I record and the song has to spark something inside me. Very few songs do that. I guess it's a good process because I love all of my music. I know there are a lot of artists that hate songs they recorded. I don’t feel that way.

Mariah Carey Set To Return To Sony Music In 2012

LA Reid and Doug Morris aren’t the only power players leaving the Universal Music Group for Sony Music. In what is possibly one of the most shocking moves in music since Janet Jackson parted ways with Island Def Jam, Mariah Carey will also be leaving UMG to return to Sony.

Carey, who became the best-selling act on Columbia Records in less than 8 years, left Sony in 2000 following her tumultuous divorce from the company’s then head Tommy Mottola and signed a record-setting yet short-lived $80 million deal with Virgin Records. She then joined UMG in 2002 after the failure of her ‘Glitter’ movie and soundtrack which led Virgin to buy out her contract for over $28 million.

The diva has only 1 album left to deliver for UMG and will reportedly release the project by the end of this year. Other records Carey put forward while signed to the company include the 6x platinum ‘The Emancipation of Mimi’ which was co-executive produced by Reid.
