Did Drake really go and put a ring on Nicki Minaj's finger? Is Drake now Mr. Harajuku Barbie? Really? Nicki and Drake married? Mr. Minaj? Mrs. Graham?

What we do know: Drake Tweeted:" "Please refer to @nickiminaj as Mrs. Aubrey Drake Graham and dont stare at her too long. She's finally mine. :)"

And Nicki Minaj responded, also via Twitter: "Yes, its true. Drake and I tied the knot. > RT @drakkardnoir @nickiminaj Baby I am never scared. PROUD is more the word I would use."

What we also know: Um, Nicki Minaj's album, Pink Friday, comes out in November. And who better to start a publicity stunt in the form of an Internet hoax than an artist who's got something to promote? It's the ultimate image control. And no one loves a publicity stunt better than the collective Twitter whole.

Did Nicki Minaj and Drake head to the courthouse for a quickie DIY wedding? Or were they just bored on Twitter? Maybe Nicki got REALLY into the idea of settling down after she dressed up as a housewife at her VMA photo shoot. And if Nicki and Drake ARE married, we're a little disheartened that we didn't get an invitation to the wedding. Or at least a Tweet. But maybe she'll have a ring on her finger at the VMAs on Sunday, September 12, when Drake will perform and Nicki will present? We'll see!

Ke$ha brushes her teeth with whiskey and wears feathers and glitter as frequently as most of us do pants. So the fact that she stripped down to her underwear for her 2010 MTV VMA "Road to the VMAs" promo video isn't actually all that shocking. (The fact that she slept in a real bed as opposed to the bathtub, however, is.)

Ke$Ha will be presenting a Moonman at the 2010 MTV VMAs. But before that, she's gotta learn to fly.

Check out behind-the-scenes photos of Ke$ha learning to fly in her 2010 MTV VMA promo video, which finds her suspended in air. Not in her underwear. She changed into some Ke$ha-fied blue platform heels and fishnets. And glitter, of course. And stay tuned for Ke$ha's VMA video, coming later tonight!

+ Don't miss the 2010 MTV VMAs live from Los Angeles, hosted by Chelsea Handler, on Sunday, September 12, at 9/8c!

Not playing second fiddle to Beyonce sure suits Kelly Rowland. Mind you, there's no beef between now-grown Destiny's Children, per se. But Kelly Rowland's really come into her own as a solo artist as of late, collaborating with top0notch producers to create a fresh sound and subsequently revamp her image.

Now she's Kelly Rowland, dance floor diva; and it looks like that's how it's staying. In this Buzzworthy video interview Kelly Rowland reveals how she got her groove back, more or less. How she added more "sass" to her music -- specifically to "Commander." She also tells us the funny story about getting kicked out of her own studio during the writing of that dance smash.

Kelly also fills us in on meeting her heroes, Whitney Houston and Michael Jackson, both of whom serenaded her with Destiny's Child songs -- Michael Jackson specifically sang "Bootylicious" to her, and Whitney Houston sang "Say My Name." Kelly also reveals the childhood hero who got her star struck -- Janet Jackson. And she told us a little more about her new charity, I Heart My Girlfriends.

Check out our new Kelly Rowland interview, and watch her "When Love Takes Over" video below.

It's a bit odd for a song as iconic and seminal as The Buggles' "Video Killed The Radio Star" to be sampled simply for its melody. You'd think a song about the changing of the music industry, the twilight of the old, the birth of the new, would be sampled to make a similar statement about today's quickly changing world.

But on will.i.am and Nicki Minaj's new single, "Check It Out," all we get is a "ohh-woah-oh," and that famous keyboard line.

Which is fine! I mean, it's Nicki Minaj for Barbie's sake. With chief Black Eyed Pea, Will.i.am, Miss Harajuku tells her haters to kill themselves, while riding a steady, dance-pop beat. It might be a pretty harsh sentiment, but frankly, over a track this downright jaunty, Minaj could be talking about the 40 percent chance there will be another recession, and it would still sound like a party.

Nicki Minaj's highly anticipated debut album, Pink Friday, is due out November 23.

Check out the song below.

Yesterday we reported that Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth had ended their relationship. The pair made a splash both on-screen, as co-stars of the film The Last Song, and off. This was pretty much Miley's first "adult" (using the term loosely) relationship. It was with the Liam who Cyrus went through her rather significant image transformation, leaving behind Hannah Montana for the "Can't Be Tamed" in-your-face pre-adult that she is today.

Nobody knows what the future holds for Miley and her love life, but there might be some clues in the past. So join us, as we take a photographic journey through the several past loves of Miley Cyrus' life.

+ Nick Jonas: The Disney Duo. Miley's first real relationship was a very public and very popular one. Miley and Nick's union delighted fans of the Jonas Brothers and "Hannah Montana" everywhere. (Well, who are we kidding. It totally pissed off some Jonas Brothers fans who assumed the guys were waiting specifically for them alone.)  When Miley and Nick broke up, Miley said she "bawled for a month straight." The two have been rumored to still have feelings for one another.

+ Justin Gaston: Miley quickly realized the best revenge for her broken heart was simple: date an underwear model. The then-20-year-old Louisiana native Justin Gaston quickly swept Miley off her feet, to the point where she was making lascivious faces at the young man while he was modeling clothes on a catwalk. The two parted ways after nine months, when Cyrus went off to film The Last Song with...

+ Liam Hemsworth. And that brings us pretty much up to date. Cyrus and Hemsworth met while filming The Last Song. Miley was so inspired by her relationship that made a mini-career out of making pronouncements about the Internet, "Twilight" and pretty much anything else you could think of. She even proclaimed that she and Liam were "deeper than normal people." Miley even quit Twitter for Liam. And that's like the BIGGEST thing you could do for someone you love. With Miley and Liam over, maybe she'll jont Witter again? Maybe she'll get back together with Nick? Maybe Justin Gaston's not busy?...

Which of Miley's past boyfriends do you think was best for her? Let us know in the comments.

And then we came to the end of Katy Perry's unofficial New York City residency. It's been a dizzying week, kiddos; one which saw the release of Perry's wonderful Teenage Dream album, subsequent rave reviews from critics, an epic performance on "The Late Show With David Letterman," some nightlife carousing (with Adam Lambert, no less) and, finally, a performance this morning on "The Today Show."

Above we see Katy Perry, back in full glam mode, rocking something of a figure skater's outfit with some fab red heels. For most of the week, Perry has toned down her wardrobe, appearing on Letterman with a pretty normal cocktail dress and rolling out to a Scissor Sisters show in sweatshirt with the face of a leopard printed on it.

But just because she was being all fabulous on television doesn't mean she forgot the little people. Last night, Perry tweeted that she had these pillows made up for her fans camping out to see her early Friday morning performance, tweeting, "I had special #TeenageDream pillow & blankys made just for those of u that r camping out for the Today show! Yay!"

That's a class act, girl. Perry performed "California Gurls" for her well-rested and excited fans. Check out the music video of said ubiquitous jam. Teenage Dream is out now.

Throughout the rich and storied history of "MTV Unplugged," a handful of performers' live sessions have gone on to become legendary. Bob Dylan, Nirvana, Phoenix, Paramore, Katy Perry, to name just a few. And now we're about to add B.o.B's "MTV Unplugged" performance to that list.

The multi-talented, multihyphenate rising star, joined in New York by special guests Robin Thicke, Melanie Fiona, and Janelle Monae, effortlessly revealed a showstopping, almost preternatural set of musical abilities. Lyricist ("Letters from Vietnam"). Rapper ("Airplanes"). Crooner ("Nothing On You"). Guitarist ("Magic"). Comic (he led the "Unplugged" audience in a rendition of the "Family Guy" theme song). Band leader and born entertainer.

B.o.B.'s "MTV Unplugged" performance premieres on MTV.com on September 1. Until then, check out this exclusive sneak peek of B.o.B. performing "Magic." And don't miss B.o.B. when he performs live at the 2010 MTV VMAs on Sunday, Sept. 12.

This morning, in Star Spotting, we posted a pic of Katy Perry leaving last night's Scissor Sisters' New York City show, decked out in a leopard-faced jacket and rocking purple extensions. She had apparently been spending some time with one of Buzzworthy's favorite American Idols, Adam Lambert.

Which got us wondering, just what did Adam Lambert get up to upon leaving the show? Well, now we know. Turns out the glamorous "Whataya You Want From Me" singer was keeping busy at a nightclub above a bowling alley. Of course!

Lambert was attending famed model/nightlife staple Amanda Lepore's Big Top party at Carnival, a club above NYC's beloved Bowlmor Lanes. He showed up after the Scissor Sisters show and seemed to have an enjoyable evening with Mike Fury of Dangerous Muse, judging by the photos.

Check out more pics, as well as Adam's "Whataya Want From Me" video, below.

For someone capable of such drastic shifts in style, both musically and fashion-wise, Kelis sure is a pretty down-to-earth gal. Just check out this Buzzworthy video interview with the mother, nuevo disco queen, and recording veteran.

Sporting a simple turtleneck and jeans ensemble -- a much more tame look than her usual Alexander McQueen/grandma/Statue of Liberty thing -- we get a very personable R&B authority.

Kelis talks about how her new album, Flesh Tone, differs from her earlier albums. She also talks about the unique experience of making the album while pregnant (she jokingly recalls that her pregnancy was sort of an argument-ender, "I'm pregnant...so everything I say is right.").

Kelis also goes into detail about the dance-friendly production on Flesh Tone, which was handled by David Guetta and Boys Noize, among others.

Check out Kelis' interview below. Flesh Tone is out now.
