Bree Turner of “The Ugly Truth”

The Ugly Truth star gives us an exclusive look at what’s on her iPod…

A Taste:

Radiohead, Katy Perry, Kelly Clarkson

In The Ugly Truth, Bree Turner’s Joy gets big laughs alongside Katherine Heigl’s neurotic news show producer Abby. Joy grounds Abby, while providing some hilarious perspectives on dating, sex and love. It’s a performance that shows just how talented Turner is.

Coming from the dance world, Turner’s got a very rhythmic acting style. So we sat down with her and talked about some of her favorite music. In this feature, Bree gave us a tour of her playlist.

Check it out below and catch Bree in The Ugly Truth in theaters now!

Bree Turner’s Playlist:

1. Radiohead

I was so into being “indie” about music when I was younger. I would always reject the mainstream [Laughs]. In the mid 90s, Radiohead was it for me. I saw them in a coffee shop in San Francisco in front of 100 people right before The Bends came out. This is what I was doing with my time then—searching out the coolest musical shit. Now, I find myself really wanting to listen to Kelly Clarkson and Pink [Laughs]. I’m not even afraid to admit it. I love pop now. It’s so happy and fun.

Isabelle Fuhrman of “Orphan”

Orphan star Isabelle Fuhrman shares her playlist with ARTISTdirect.com in this exclusive feature

A Taste:

Taylor Swift, Kimya Dawson, Ozzy Osbourne

Orphan will give you nightmares.

Those come courtesy of Esther played by the phenomenal Isabelle Fuhrman. The Coleman family has just adopted the bright young Russian girl, but they soon realize she’s different—very different. Bad things begin happening, and true horror follows.

In Esther, Isabelle conjures pure evil, constantly shifting from nice to nefarious. It’s a performance that sticks with audiences and will no doubt establish the twelve-year-old as a true screen presence.

However, Isabelle really just wants to rock.

She shared her playlist with ARTISTdirect.com in this exclusive feature, and it was quite surprising. She explains, “I listen to tons of different music. I don’t have a specific genre that I like. I listen to Taylor Swift and Demi Lovato. Then I’ll listen to Kimya Dawson from the Juno soundtrack or Ozzy Osbourne [Laughs].”

After seeing Orphan, Ozzy will make perfect sense. Be sure to catch it in theaters this Friday!

Isabelle Fuhrman’s Playlist:

1. Taylor Swift

Adam Brody

The Death In Love star shares his playlist with ARTISTdirect.com in this exclusive feature…he also tells us why Bob Dylan’s the man…

A Taste:

Bob Dylan, Arctic Monkeys, The French Kicks

Adam Brody’s feeling quite inspired lately.

Maybe it’s the fact that he’s in one of the most intriguing dramas of the year, Death In Love. Or maybe it’s because he’s got the dark and sexy Jennifer’s Body with Megan Fox on the horizon for September. Most likely though, his state of inspiration is because he’s going through a series re-education musically.

“Music is a big part of my life so I try to take it with me in whatever I do. I’ve been on a real classic rock kick lately though,” laughs Brody.

That “classic rock” kick has inspired him to check out all kinds of stuff that was under his nose for years but he never delved into until now. Brody turned his iPod and gave ARTISTdirect.com an exclusive look at what’s rocking his world right now.

Check out his playlist below and don’t miss his incendiary performance in Death In Love out now.

1. Bob Dylan
