"This year has been carnivorous and life-changing," Ke$ha says. "I have my rowdy, gorgeous fans to thank for taking me on the ride of a lifetime. My only goal with this record is to keep them dancing. The songs on Cannibal were made to inspire people to ignore any hate or judgment and be themselves unapologetically. It's the perfect companion to Animal and I hope you guys like it."

Cannibal is made up of eight new songs and a remix, including the single "We R Who We R" which will hit the radio tomorrow, October 14. It will be sold both separately and as a special deluxe repackage with Animal, called Animal + Cannibal, on November 22.

Who are you going to vote for?

Ke$ha's latest single, "Take It Off," has taken her up the charts!

Ke$ha has become just the 11th female singer to have at least four Billboard Top 100 top 10 songs off a debut album. Her first single, "Tik Tok," hit number one in January, and her next two singles, "Blah Blah Blah" (featuring 3OH!3) and "Your Love Is My Drug" both entered the top 10 in 2010 ("Blah Blah Blah" peaked at number seven, while "Your Love Is My Drug" reached number four).

Which Ke$ha song is your favorite?

Ever wonder what Ke$ha dreams about? MTV knows! The "Take It Off" singer was nominated for four VMAs, including Best Collaboration, Best Female Video, Best New Artist, and Best Pop Video categories, and now she's the latest star to have her own VMA promo!

The 2010 MTV Video Music Awards will air live from Los Angeles on Sunday, September 12, at 9 p.m. ET/PT.

Which award do you think Ke$ha should win?

Ke$ha came to her pal Adam Lambert's defense after the American Idol alum was snubbed by the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards. Despite his successful year, none of Adam's songs or videos were nominated for any awards.

"It's a little bit unfortunate that he didn't get nominated, because he does have one of the best voices I've ever heard," Ke$ha says.

Ke$ha -- who has had an extremely successful year herself and was nominated for four VMAs -- also went on to say that she was "really lucky to have found a real friend in him."

Do you think it's unfair that Adam Lambert didn't get nominated? Was there anyone else you wanted to be nominated for a VMA who wasn't?

Hey J-14ers,

I'm still covered in glitter. That's right -- on Monday, August 2, I caught an awesome Ke$ha performance, and it was everything you would think a Ke$ha show would be.

I was at the Shock the World 2010 Event at the Manhattan Center in New York City, where I got to check out the brand new Casio G-Shock and Baby-G watches. Why was Ke$ha there? She's the new Baby-G brand ambassador! Not only does she star in a new ad campaign, she'll be designing two watches for the brand that will hit stores in 2011.

Throughout the event, Ke$ha had three outfit changes -- she started off in a shredded Indianapolis Colts tee, glittery short shorts, a purple Baby-G watch, and a giant gold cuff for the press conference; changed into a sheer one-shouldered black dress, baby blue Baby-G watch, and black heels, which she topped off with light blue lipstick, for the red carpet; and paired a Van Halen tank and gold shorts with a glittery blue star over her right eye and three light blue body paint stripes on her left arm. I got to see Ke$ha's red carpet outfit right up close -- J-14 was the first mag she talked to!

Lady Gaga took over the airwaves this year, and now she's dominating the 2010 MTV Music Video Awards nominations. Gaga scored 13 nods -- including Best Pop Video, Best Female Video, and Best Dance Music Video for "Bad Romance" -- and now has the most nominations ever in one VMA. She's also the first female artist to be nominated for two different videos in the Video of the Year category -- both "Bad Romance" and "Telephone" featuring Beyoncé were nominated.

Eminem came in second with eight noms, and tons of your faves are up for awards for the first time, including Justin Bieber, Ke$ha, Drake, and B.o.B.

The 27th Annual MTV Video Music Awards will air on September 12 at 9 p.m. ET/PT. Check out the full list of 2010 VMA nominees after the jump:
