When rapper and VMA Best New Artist winner Tyler, The Creator recently tweeted "Demi Is Awesome" and posted this photo of him posing with Demi Lovato at the VMAs, we were kind of confused. Are the two of them are like, friends? Seems like THE weirdest pairing in the world. Demi's this tender pop singer while Tyler is part of a hip-hop collective called ODD FUTURE WOLF GANG KILL THEM ALL. Um, thinking of these two chillin' is like imagining a kitten playing in a piranha tank.

But that's the thing about the VMAs, guys -- anything can happen! Women become men, people get pregnant and BFFs can form from complete opposite music genres. Demi's smirk says, "Homeboy for life!" while YOU KNOW Tyler's all, "Holy F***, I Get To Pose With This F****** Hottie? Holy F***."

Seriously, though, do you think Demi Lovato and Tyler, The Creator like, exchanged numbers or something? Do they hang out on Friday nights, play Mall Madness and share popcorn while they watch romcoms? I don't hope for a lot in this life, but I do hope for that.

Sorry to keep talking about Beyoncé being pregnant... ACTUALLY, NOPE, NOT SORRY AT ALL. Guys, I can't stop thinking about it! How far along is she?! How many pregnancy tests did she take?! How did she tell Jay-Z?! Can we get an MTV News special on this, please?! For those of you who are like me and are already assembling your altar to Bey and Jay's perfect fetus, here's another piece of the pregnancy pie we've uncovered today -- Kanye West might be named the godfather of the lil' nugget!!!!!

Um, hellloooooo, are we the only ones thinking that Yeezy has been waiting for the title of "Godfather" for, oh, HIS ENTIRE LIFE? He's probably making a diamond-encrusted "Godfather" grill as I type, or like, buying 5,000 shares of Cristal in his new goddaughter or godson's name. Also, the christening (if there is one)?! You know that s*** is gonna be like, in outer space or something. You will literally have to take a rocket to get there. A Hummer rocket. A platinum Hummer rocket that only takes premium.

Even though Kanye West becoming little Jayoncé's godfather is not actually confirmed, we can't help but ruminate over the possibilities. Dude raps about women and cars and ice and watches and 100s like he's stocking up for a hurricane or something. How's a newborn gonna change his rap game? My Beautiful Dark Twisted BabyBjorn? I guess we'll find out soon enough, but in the meantime, here's a GIF:

Neon Hitch has been spending as much time perfecting her debut album, Beg, Borrow and Steal, as she has providing the world with some seriously legit covers. Earlier this month Ms. Hitch set the web ablaze with her cover of Wiz Khalifa's "On My Level," and today she's back with her unique take on former MTV PUSH artist Kreayshawn's viral hit "Gucci Gucci."

The cover's super-stylish clip shows Neon gallivanting in the streets of New York trying to hustle fake designer bags. To no avail, she advertises her faux wares to hot dog stand vendors, random finance men, and semi-interested women who run away when they realize Neon's purses came from a factory in Jersey and not famous 5th Avenue stores. Then, Neon cools down with some interpretive dancing in a refrigerator (?). Yeah, we don't know.

Neon Hitch's "Gucci Gucci" video is just the icing on the cake -- the real standout is her voice. Slightly reminiscent of the late Amy Winehouse (who was also Neon's roommate a few years back) and Cher Lloyd, Neon's distinct tone is that of a well-trained R&B crooner mixed with the rhythmic sensibility of a seasoned rapper.

While there's no official release date yet for Beg, Borrow and Steal, Neon Hitch fans can cop her single "Bad Dog," out now.

We're not even sure where to begin with this one. Cult Detroit rappers Insane Clown Posse and former White Stripes frontman Jack White discovered an obscure Mozart canon entitled 'Leck Mich Im Arsch,' which roughly translates to, well, just click the link. An Eureka moment was born, and the word "random" has just been redefined.

The track sees White and Nashville rock band Jeff the Brotherhood laying down electric guitar and crashing drums over a sample of Mozart vocals and melodies, with ICP rapper Violent J schooling Shaggy 2 Dope on the composer's "freak" tendencies. It's ridiculous and absurd, but we also kind of can't stop listening. What is happening?

The rappers use the title as a springboard to talk about, y'know... we're not even allowed to tell you. Why am I even writing and wasting your valuable seconds when you could be listening to A MOZART-SAMPLING, JACK WHITE-PRODUCED TRACK WITH INSANE CLOWN POSSE? If you need me to sell you any more than that, I'm afraid there's just no hope.

Coming at you from L.A. post-VMAs is this week's episode of "Bigger Than The Buzz"! Buzzworthy's very own Tamar Anitai and MTV News' James Montgomery sat down to discuss big VMA news and surprises in episode 6 of the most hilarious short-form pop culture web show to ever hit the internet in all of eternity. (Just my completely objective opinion.)

Up first, THE COOLEST BABY EVER!!!! In case you missed it, Beyoncé announced her pregnancy at this year's VMAs, first on the red carpet and then officially at the end of her performance of "Love On Top." As expected, the audience went crazy, and don't even get me started on the cut to Jay-Z after Beyoncé rubbed her belly. I will cry real tears in front of you. Do not even.

In addition to the Beyoncé/Jay-Z news that almost broke Twitter, at the VMAs we also found out that Katy Perry dances like your mom. No, seriously -- there is video evidence of Katy Perry dancing to Beyoncé's performance, and she's doing the adorable "I'm not really sure how I should be moving right now because this song is kind of mid-tempo so I'm just going to step from side to side and clap my hands" dance. Oh, and she's wearing a block on her head, so like, WATCH THE VIDEO.

And of course, what kind of VMA wrap-up show would this week's "Bigger Than The Buzz" be if Tamar and James didn't discuss Lady Gaga going full-on DUDE. Lady Gaga showed up to the VMAs (and stayed that way for the entire evening) as Jo Calderone, her male alter ego (and Adam Goldberg's seriously uncanny doppelgänger). And it turns out homeboy is a playaaaah. Kissing Britney Spears AND rubbing up on Snooki? Be careful, Jo. Lady Gaga's s*** list is not one we want to be on.

What's the best way to re-enter the music game after a three-year hiatus? Release a song about the slang word for "strawberry," obviously.  Lil Mama is back with "Scrawberry," and even though the song's meaning isn't exactly apparent, it's kind of addictive.

While she doesn't exactly describe what this mystery berry is, Lil Mama's colorful "Scrawberry" video does a great job of reintroducing herself to the hip-hop game. The song samples Special Ed's classic 1989 record "I Got It Made" and features a multiple-wig-donning Lil Mama and her entourage of Harajuku girls dancing around to the beat. Think Nicki Minaj's wigs plus Gwen Stefani's Harajuku friends jamming to an MC Lyte-inspired track. So basically if my dream closet had a soundtrack, it'd be this song on repeat.

Lil Mama's "Scrawberry" is extremely catchy, with lyrics that are so WTF that the song's sure to sneak into your head. "That's Scrawberry milk pink.../And my dashboard clean/And my trunk don't stank." Um, thanks? Hey, weirdo lyrics worked for Kelis (no one brings milkshakes to yards), and we're still waiting on Fergie to let us in on what it means to be "Fergalicious." Get that scrawberry paper, Lil Mama. Or something.

In a recent Entertainment Weekly interview, Kelly Clarkson likened her slew of song leaks to being robbed, saying, "Oh my God, have you ever been robbed? I have. I've been physically robbed a couple of times, but this is much worse." Sorry Kel, that gives us the sadz! But we have to say, now that "Mr. Know It All" is officially out, we can see why those thieves wanted it.

The first single, "Mr. Know It All," off Kelly's forthcoming album Stronger premiered last night on Kelly's website. Unlike several of Kelly's leaks, which have gone down a more traditional pop-rock road, "Mr. Know It All" has a distinct R&B flavor, showcasing a side to her vocals we haven't seen in a while. As opposed to the "Since U Been Gone" Kelly, the "Mr. Know It All" Kelly sounds softer and more feminine as she sings: "Mr. Know It All, well ya/Ya think you know it all/But ya don't know a thing at all/Ain't it, ain't it something y'all."

After a more subdued verse, the chorus slips into a syncopated beat, reminding us a little of Bruno Mars' "Just The Way You Are." Hey, guys. Kelly Clarkson's back.

Kelly Clarkson's fifth studio album, Stronger, is due out Oct. 25.

You might have seen her running around backstage with Beyoncé after she announced her pregnancy in our exclusive, all-access footage we shared with you guys, but we just wanted to make sure that you got a good look at Kelly Rowland's head-to-toe bla-DOW-ness at the VMAs. Let it all soak in; I'll give you a minute.

I'll just be the first to say it -- Kelly Rowland looks like Barbie! And I definitely mean that as a compliment! The perfectly straight bangs (is there just like, not weather in L.A.?), the dress that fits to a tee, and those peep-toe pumps (I'm pretty sure Barbie literally owned those)... She's a real life doll! After she partied it up at the VMAs, Kelly probably went home to her pink dream house (elevator included) and then became an architect. Some girls have all the luck.
