At long last, 3OH!3 has unveiled the cover for the duo's long-awaited third album, "Streets Of Gold," out June 29. "Streets Of Gold"? More like Hands Of Gold.

[Awkward silence. Pin drops.]

Speaking of hands, the sign is eerily reminiscent of Jay-Z's trademark diamond-cutter gesture. Just take a look at the cover of Hova's 2000 album "The Dynasty: Roc La Familia" below.

Coincidence or correlation? You decide. In the meantime, go find the clean version of "House Party," the first single off 3OH!3's "Streets Of Gold."

Let this be a lesson in the order of things to all you guys and gals who spend endless hours curating your Tumblrs and your Flickrs and your Facebooks with pictures of animals doing stupid stuff. Let this be a lesson to those of us who've had many a merry time guffawing at the sight of cats being confused, falling off tables, being surprised and generally getting the rug pulled out from under them.

Sometimes, dear humans, the animal kingdom must rise up and remind us exactly who's boss. They must rebel against our photo-taking, YouTube-creating, laughing-at-their-expense-having ways! Sometimes they must make us the punch line.

And with that in mind, here is a video of an octopus stealing a guy's camera. And then TAPING S***!!!!!

+ Plus: See why Snoop "feels like an octopus."

As anyone who has ears or steals Wi-Fi already knows, comedian Aziz Ansari will be hosting this year's MTV Movie Awards. The show will air live from the Gibson Amphitheater in Universal City, California, on June 6, so mark it on your calendar. You also might want to start doing some ab exercises because Aziz is sure to split your sides in two. His shizzz is that funny.

Don't believe us? Watch some of the comedic gems Aziz has dispensed over the years. Here are a few of our funny favorites. (Some videos contain NSFW wordies! Consider yourself warned!)

1.) Aziz's Obsession With M.I.A.: Before Aziz hit it big on "Parks and Recreation," he was just another struggling NYC stand-up comedian ... with AN AWESOME show on MTV called "Human Giant") ... and a huge crush on "Paper Planes" singer M.I.A. Not only is this back-in-the-day bit completely hysterical, but it's also educational. Rumba nala patih!

I bet you were just sitting there wondering what ever happened to Sweden's 2005 "Pop Idol" winner. Well, friend, Agnes is doing just fine and she has a super slab of summer dance pop for you to enjoy, in the form of her video for "Release Me." I know, it's like I can read your mind.

"Release Me," shows off both Agnes' formidable pipes as well as her fun-loving attitude. The Thomas Kloss-directed video finds Agnes hanging out with friends and blowing the roof off with her impressive roof-raising voice. The song itself veers from inspirational ballad to storming dance anthem, with a dollop of gospel soul for good measure. It all has the feel of Leona Lewis set to more BPMs.

Justin Bieber just touched down at Japan's Narita Airport, where he'll begin the slow but steady spread of a highly contagious strain of Bieber fever in Asia. One question: In a blue knit hat, electric blue Nikes and even a blue water bottle, is Justin looking too matchy-matchy? Or is he sending a secret message to James Cameron to cast him in "Avatar 2"?

Last month we introduced you to the shuffle-pop sound of Vita Chambers. Drawing comparisons to Pink, Katy Perry and Lady Gaga, Vita Chambers makes eclectic, exuberant danceable tracks with the passion of a true music lover. And nowhere is that more on display than her Lil Wayne and Friends homage, "Young Money."

So you know about her music, now it's time to get to know the girl. In this episode of "The 5," Vita Chambers talks about her deep fear of spiders and the way romantic films trigger her waterworks (she recently teared up at Miley Cyrus' "The Last Song"). You'll also find her to be an avowed foodie, as she gives up the details on a delicacy of her Barbados homeland: macaroni pie (totally going there now).

Check out Vita Chambers' episode of "The 5" below.  Chambers' The Get Go EP is out now.

Our Miley is growing up, getting older, changing. I think it's called "being a teenager." The "Last Song" star stepped out for sushi recently with her favorite two accessories: boyfriend/co-star Liam Hemsworth and her stylish purse. With her ripped camo leggings, Cyrus looks like she might be ready to enlist. Or to attend a very boho "Poetry Reading In The U.S.A."

Her choice of pants might scream, "Dad, you just don't get me." But being a rebellious teen doesn't mean you have to sacrifice style and comfort -- hence the designer bag and luxury SUV. She's just being Miley.

I don't know about you, but I am so glad Coachella is over. I'm not trying to be a hater or anything, but I was about to hurl myself out a window if I had to read one more "Muse is changing my life!" or "Jay-Z and Beyonce are totally side-stage, watching Phoenix right now!" tweet-slash-status message from all my friends who ventured to Indio, California, without me over the weekend.

Yeah, I'm a green-eyed monster. What?

I might be bummed that I missed what I heard to be amazing performances by Passion Pit, Avett Brothers and La Roux, but I'm mainly pissed that I wasn't able to play one of my favorite festival games: Spot The Celeb With The Worst Festival Fashion Sense.

However, thanks to the art of concert photography, I can play the at-home version of Coachella. Allow me to introduce you to the top 5 fashion trainwrecks spotted at Coachella. Please hold your applause until the end of the jump!
