The Killjoy carnival was busy being set up outside around a swarm of My Chemical Romance fans who lined up a solid 12 hours before tonight's "Live In L.A.: My Chemical Romance" House Of Blues show celebrating the release of MCR's fourth album, Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys. My Chemical Romance's crew--in front of a backdrop of the American flag covered in MCR's now-signature Danger Days spider--line checked at levels well beyond a rock-ready 11, while My Chemical Romance, in leather jackets and black sh** kickers, took a seat in the back of the House of Blues to answer your Buzzworthy fan questions.

They may play a bunch of outlaw misfits in their "Na Na Na" video, but Mikey, Gerard, Frank and Ray, are consummate artists and devoutly professional musicians. While many artists would be out celebrating on the day of their album release (Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys is out today), My Chemical Romance spent release day sharing articulate, intelligent, heartfelt and funny--are you reading this, Bruce Willis?--answers to questions from their legion of fans who put them--and kept them--on the musical map. While, as any My Chem fan knows, only Mikey and Gerard are brothers, and the band interacts like a true family unit with an intimate understanding of their own artistic vision, evolution and reinvention. Any true My Chemical Romance fan will probably pick up on the band's measured yet confident identity--beyond their Killjoy personas--which should make this My Chem fan interview even more rewarding to watch.

Watch My Chemical Romance answer MTV Buzzworthy Blog fan questions to find out more about the origins of their Killjoy names, the evolution of the Danger Days spider and lightening bolt, the music they find uplifting and giving their fans credit for saving themselves.

Well, you really can't top that can you? It's Mariah Carey and her adorable little pal, being a straight up vision on Park Avenue in New York City. And it's just one of the many awesome pictures we have in MTV's Best Of Mariah Carey photo gallery.

Call it an early Thanksgiving Day present. A way of thanking you (for reading) and thanking Mariah (for being Mariah) and thanking Nick Cannon for making Mariah happy.

Inside the gallery you'll see shots ranging from across the "Fantasy" singer's career, you'll see vintage shots of her, like this one at the 1997 "MTV VMAs" ...

Girl! You're missing part of your dress! You'll also see this vision in tan from the "Good Will Hunting" premiere ...

Shout out to 1997! There's also some more recent snaps at our Butterfly, such as this shot from the 2010 Golden Globes, with hubby Nick Cannon.

Ahh, young love. It's a great set of photos, covering her entire career. A must-see for Mariah fans!

Miley Cyrus had a pretty busy weekend. Not only did the Disney gal gone somewhat wild perform "Forgiveness and Love" at Sunday's "American Music Awards," but she also celebrated her 18th birthday in fine style in Los Angeles.

Cyrus along with her mom, Tish, as well as celebs such as Demi Moore, partied into the night at the Trousdale nightclub. She wore leather and little else and seemed to really enjoy the company of actor Avan Jogia, who was spotted making out with Cyrus later in the evening.

In addition to Jogia's affection, Cyrus was also on the receiving end of this giant, sparking cake, as pictured above. I love how Miley, despite it being her party and all, is making that "Ugh, take the picture already face," that everyone makes at their birthday party.

Miley Cyrus actually turns 18 on Nov. 23, so you still have time to get her something. Don't bother with cakes and cupcakes, though. I think she's covered in that department.

30 Seconds To Mars' new film for their haunting track "Hurricane" is almost upon us. We haven't been this excited for pretty much anything in quite some time. Don't believe us? Well, to prove it, we'll be posting a special teaser for the "Hurricane" film every day this week, each one focusing on a different character or element of the whole experience.

First off we meet "Jared," played by 30STM frontman Jared Leto. We learn a few things about Jared in this brief, erotically charged teaser: He's got six-pack abs, knows how to fight and has an affinity for "Memento"-style body tattoos.

Check out the "Jared" trailer for 30 Seconds To Mars' "Hurricane" film, below.

+ 30 Seconds To Mars' "Hurricane" film will premiere on MTV.com on Monday, Nov. 29th, at 5PM EST.

We HAVE to say something about Taylor Swift's new bangs, and that something is "OMFG." The "Dear John" singer debuted a more-sophisticated look yesterday at the 2010 American Music Awards, and she sent jaws dropping. We see what you're doing, Taylor, and we like it.

The usually curly haired Taylor Swift looked downright ah-mazing, sporting stick-straight tresses and edgy face-framing fringe on the red carpet. Taylor then took home her third AMA for Favorite Female Country Artist and performed a snowy rendition of "Back To December" and OneRepublic's "Apologize." The performance was nice and all, but those bangs stole the show! (We so hope they're not clip-ins.)

Is this the best Taylor Swift look of all time? (OF ALL TIME!!) Does this mark a new era for the 20-year-old? Does Jake Gyllenhaal have anything to do with this? How upset is John Mayer right now? We need answers!

Let us know what you think about Taylor Swift's new look!

Nicki Minaj hit the red carpet at the "2010 American Music Awards" last night looking like the hip-hop Lady Gaga in a dress that we would describe as part pipe cleaner exoskeleton, part Egyptian wrapping paper. And is that the golden scarab from "Aladdin" I see?

MTV bumped into Nicki Minaj last night and asked the "Right Thru Me" singer to describe her dress: "It looks like it could be a piece on the middle of your table and you picked it up, put some clothing on it, and now you can wear it. It's all about feeling like, 'Grrr.'" Hmm. We're not really sure how this dress makes you feel like "Grrr," but Nicki went on to say that the Manish Arora-designed dress is "the epitome of Pink Friday" (her long-awaited debut album that dropped today). A little schizo, hard to understand, yet somehow still awesome? Sounds about right.

Nicki Minaj topped off her award show look with one of her famous wigs: a blond Barbie style with dip-dyed green ends. But Nicki went easy on the makeup and left the jewelry at home -- let's not overdo it, people.

My mother always said it wasn't polite to talk about money, but if I was worried about being polite I'm really in the wrong business. So, with that in mind, let's just safely assume that Will.i.am is paid. Just take into account the popularity of Black Eyed Peas jams such as "I Gotta Feeling," "Boom Boom Pow" and "My Humps."

And if you need more proof of Will.i.am's wealth, look no further than your man's LEGO hat, being rocked above in a picture snapped on the American Music Awards red carpet. To wear such a hat, one must either be a) crazy or b) rich. And Will.i.am ain't crazy.

Extra kudos, props and slow-clapped applause go to Will for his ability to really thread the needle on the entire outfit and see it through to completion. Because, as we all know, a LEGO hat is nothing without its LEGO necklace.

Congrats to Will.i.am. Not only did the Black Eyed Peas win Favorite Band, Duo or Group at the AMAs, but you won the red carpet and, possibly, life.
