Here's an interview with Beatweek Magazine that Jordin recently did. She is the cover story, and they used a photo from the S.O.S. Video Shoot for the front (which she looked great in):

A lot of pop musicians, they wait until their career winds down, and then they go to Broadway to start a new career. But that’s not the case with you, you’re in the prime of your pop career. So why are you going to Broadway? Well obviously I was not about to turn down the opportunity (laughs), especially with the musical I'm gonna be in. I went and saw it, I took a meeting in February just to talk with them, cause I think they want to adapt In The Heights into a movie like all the other ones that have come out. They were just talking to me, asking me about Broadway, if I loved it. And with my dad playing football out in New York, we used to see Broadway musicals quite often actually.

It would be really cool, I mean I love the love songs and breakup songs, I know I love to do those. We'll see. Maybe another duet, I just want to make sure that it's amazing. I mean, with No Air and Art Of Love, it can't just be an okay song, you know? So I want to make sure that it's amazing, if that even happens. But yeah, maybe trying just a little bit of everything. I definitely want to have a hand in writing the songs, like I did with the last record. Just work with some great people and we'll see what happens.

She also talks more about the process of Battlefield and the possibility of starring in the movie adaptation of "In The Heights" which would be so cool!
As for the site merging, I'm honestly not too sure what is happening right now. Andy is trying everything he can to get the site back up so hopefully we'll be able to go through with it soon.
