The latest Beats by Dr. Dre in-ear headphones to hit the marketplace are Heartbeats by Lady Gaga, an updated version of the popular headphones.

Heartbeats by Lady Gaga were designed by the pop icon herself and tout the crisp, high quality sound and technology expected from the Beats by Dr. Dre brand, yet take on Lady Gaga's sense of style with leather and studs. The all-new design is lightweight and comes with six sets of ear tips, a tangle free cable, hard carrying case and ControlTalk for iPhone and iPod music playback control as well as hands-free calls.

To celebrate the launch, Beats by Dr. Dre's Facebook page is hosting a contest where Lady Gaga's "Little Monsters" can upload photos or videos themed around her latest hit single "Edge of Glory."

Fans will be able to submit their entries through August 1. Visit http://beatsarmy.me/heartbeatscontest for additional details.

Heartbeats by Lady Gaga come in two colors: black and gold. They are available now at Best Buy and select retailers for $149.

The new Beats by Dr. Dre Red Sox Edition headphones feature official Boston Red Sox team colors and insignia and are the first-ever Major League Baseball licensed Beats by Dr. Dre headphones.

Dr. Dre, Jimmy Iovine, and Head Monster Noel Lee joined the Red Sox at Sunday night's season-opening game at Fenway Park to announce the Red Sox Edition headphones.

Noted Mr. Lee, "When we designed the Beats headphones we wanted to create a headphone that would provide a greater listening experience for iPod, iPhone, iPad, BlackBerry or Zune users. Red Sox fans will enjoy not only their comfort and style, but their 'ear opening' sound that is unequaled in any other headphone."

Monster this week introduced its new "Butterfly™" high-performance in-ear headphones created in conjunction with fashion designer Vivienne Tam.

They also have multiple eartips for a comfortable fit, a built-in ControlTalk remote for controlling volume, playing/pausing music and moving between tracks. The headphones also sport Monster's cable management system.

Head Monster Noel Lee noted: "Monster's goal is to enhance the entire music listening experience with a higher quality of music reproduction than has ever been achieved in an in-ear headphone. With 'Butterfly,' we're enhancing the experience even further by combining high fidelity with high fashion. Vivienne Tam's elegant new "Butterfly Lovers" collection is clearly inspired by music, which makes this headphone project a perfect fit."

Monster's Butterfly in-ear headphones have an MSRP of $199.95 and come with a carry case that reflects the Butterfly theme.
