Justin Timberlake on the set of his latest film "Inside Llewyn Davis."

Ugh! What is it with Justin Timberlake fighting everything that he's good at? Dude is one of the most naturally talented musicians ever and all he wants to do is be in movies. He's also one of the hottest bros around and now he's rocking some broke-ass beanie and messy scruff? Why you fighting the hot, Timberlake? Just let it happen! You were born that way!

Justin was spotted on the set of his latest film "Inside Llewyn Davis" in Manhattan recently looking like he's taking that whole Bon Iver "Saturday Night Live" skit to the next level. Also, truth be told, JT kinda looks like my brother here, and I can't even tell you level of uncomfortableness I'm approaching. (Hint: 10.) Even though we'd still sign up to be this dude's girlfriend with no questions asked any day of the week, raise your hand if you think Justin should rock the *NSYNC "Gone" video-era look forever and ever... BRB, counting everyone's hands on the planet.

Katy Perry tops Billboard Hot 100 with "Part of Me."

+ Katy Perry's 'Part Of Me' debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. It's the 20th song in the chart's history to enter at the top spot, and Perry's seventh No. 1 on that chart. (Billboard)

+ Katy Perry will also guest star on Fox-TV show "Raising Hope" on March 6. (Entertainment Weekly)

+ Adele seems to always win, and with those pipes she's earned it. Breaking her own record of 21 albums sold in one week and the most albums sold post-Grammys (730,000 copies), she's also the first artist to go double-platinum on iTunes. #hotdamngirl (MTV News)

+ Check out the new "DoYaThing" song collab with Gorillaz, Andre 3000 and LCD Soundsystem's James Murphy. You can download it for free on Converse's website. (Rap-Up)

+ Confession: I've been crushing out on our pres for a while. Watching President Obama front a bit of "Sweet Home Chicago" with B.B. King, Mick Jagger, Jeff Beck, Buddy Guy and Susan Tedeschi backing him, well, that's extra swoon worthy. Peep it here. (E!)

+ Guitarist Christopher Reimer, of Calgary band Women, passed away in his sleep. The cause of death has not yet been determined. He was 26. (Pitchfork)

Adele flips the bird at the Brit Awards!

Adele may come off all sweet and brokenhearted in her music, but as we all learned last night, if you mess with her, she might cut you. Adele's a G, yo! The "Someone Like You" singer won the Mastercard British Album Of The Year award (along with British Female Solo Artist) at the Brit Awards and took the stage to gracefully accept the coveted statue. But because of time restraints, her speech was cut short. Adele was a tad P-O-ed and, in response, flipped the bird on camera. While we tend not to condone such naughty sign language while wearing such a sparkly gown, we have to side with Adele on this one -- SHE WORKED HER ASS OFF TO WIN THIS AWARD! Let the girl stand at that podium and stare at us in silence while drooling if that's what she damn well pleases!

Not only are we totally loving Adele's gutsy move, we're also digging that the girl even makes the normally vulgar gesture look a tad bit classy -- actually, the British can make anything look classy.

Ed Sheeran at the 2012 Brit Awards

See, if we were all British, 21-year-old singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran would need no introduction -- he's mad famous across the pond. But we're boring old Americans so here's what you need to know: Ed Sheeran's a prime example of an artist who gained a massive grass roots fanbase before being signed to a major label. Last January, Ed independently released his No.5 Collaborations Project which sold over 7,000 copies in its first week and landed the No. 2 spot on iTunes. (NBD.) As you might imagine, the record biz took note and Ed was later signed to Atlantic Records. Now's he's a super, super big deal. (See: his Brit Award for British Breakthrough Act above.)

Lourdes DGAF -- homegirl shaved half of her head.

Can we all agree that shaving half of your hair off is pretty much the ultimate IDGAF statement? Skrillex did it, Cassie did it, and now Madonna's daughter Lourdes has done it. Not only do we love it, but we're also super jealous -- as much as I'd love to take the plunge myself, there's just something about a half-shaved head that I'm just not ready to commit to at this juncture. But hey, for those of you whosE hairstyles will never be a determining factor of your tax bracket, buzz away.

Lourdes was spotted touching down at LAX with Mommy Madonna, and she offered the paps a quick glimpse of her new 'do. Not to toot our own horn or anything, but perhaps this is the result of Lourdes browsing through our Celebrity Skrillex Makeovers Photo Gallery? Maybe she saw how bad-ass Taylor Swift looked with a half-shaved head and thought, "I need that now." Because if a hairstyle can make the sparkle/ rainbow/ fairy tale princess of the universe look even half dangerous, it's gonna do wonders for Madonna's daughter.

Listen to Brooklyn's latest, Fort Lean.

Okay, we know what you're thinking: "Based on this photo alone, Fort Lean is way too cool for me and my friends. I mean, ACID-WASHED JEANS FOR CRYING OUT LOUD." Well, we've said it before and we'll say it again -- don't judge a band by their press pic! (We're just lovingly flirting with you, Fort Lean. You guys look totally dapper chilling with a fake deer and a feral dog that looks a feral wolf.) Jake Aron, Zach Fried, Keenan Mitchell, Will Runge, and Sam Ubl -- better known to their fans as Brooklyn rockers Fort Lean -- all met when they attended Wesleyan University (which also bred bands MGMT, Das Racist and Francis & The Lights). The rest, as they say, was history.

Not to sound vague, but there's just something about Fort Lean that guts us. Take "Sunsick," their anthemic new single, as a prime example. Lead vocalist Mitchell's pipes add a kind of gravelly warmth and color to the already melodic and hooky rock song. As a waterfall of synths draws you in, Mitchell's sweeping vocals chant, "Workin' on my posture/ Haven't even started/ You can pick me apart/ 'Cause I'm an easy target.../ Cleaning my apartment/ Keep on fallin' down." I can't. I'm so right there.

Nicki Minaj shows her true colors in Vogue's March 2012 issue.

If you told us Nicki Minaj was actually an alien (or some kind of Frankenstein robot a la David Guetta's "Turn Me On" video), we wouldn't really raise an eyebrow. Now the powers that be (Vogue magazine, obvi) are trying to tell us that Nicki Minaj is some kind of Smurf-human, and we're all, "Duh." The lady's cut from a different cloth, okay? As she said herself, "I'm the baddest in the school/ I'm the baddest in the game/ Excuse me, honey, but nobody's in my lane." (Street cred to all of you who can properly identify that song. Hint: check her mixtapes.)

But don't let the outfit (skin?) fool you, guys -- Nicki Minaj isn't blue at all. In the latest issue of Vogue, the Harajuku Barbie opens up about how privileged she's feels to be living the life she always dreamed of: "I went to Negril the other night, and I brought, like, ten of the fans who were waiting outside with me, and bought them all food!” Hanging out with Nicki AND free food? ULTIMATE FANTASY.

Nicki also reveals what her other goals are in life besides music: to open "an enormous foundation to nurture girls." Nicki continued, "The Nicki Minaj girl is a fun, artsy girl who can become a fierce force to be reckoned with on Wall Street! They hang on my every word, so I tell them, go to school, be ambitious." She forgot "be sure to incorporate as much color into your wardrobe as humanly possible."

Nicki Minaj lays down a verse on Ester Dean's "Gimmie Money."

So, what happens when everyone's go-to pop scribe Ester Dean goes solo and releases a track featuring Nicki Minaj? FIRE! EN FUEGO! And all other interesting ways to say "This song is BOMB!"

Nicki and Ester previously collaborated when Dean cowrote Nicki's smash "Super Bass," so Nicki's returning the favor by making a cameo on Ester's solo jam "Gimme Money." Set to a synth-laden, house-infused beat, Ester Dean claims she doesn't need any dude's money -- um, DUH she's written No. 1 hit songs for like, everyone in the game -- but would rather have their commitment. "You wanna gimme money/Gim, gimme money/Gimme money/I'd rather have your time.../I'd rather spend your time.../'Cause I got mine."
