Who would attack Shakira? Only a sea lion, obvs?

LOOK, we know by virtue of the fact that the critter has "lion" in its name we should inherently fear and respect the almighty sea lion, but how CAN we when they are essentially seals with ears? They're incredibly cute when they lounge mermaid-style along the shore!

Clearly, Shakira shared our National Geographic-worthy aquatic mammal classification system vis-a-vis violence when she unwittingly tempted one with her Blackberry, which said sea lion rudely (and wrongly) decided was a fish. The songbird was attacked by the sea animal while on tour in Cape Town, South Africa, and had to be saved by her brother! Luckily, she escaped with just some minor scrapes on her hand.

This dapper dude is still single, ladies.

Honestly, thank goodness for Twitter. I know, I say this all the time. But how the hell else are we gonna find out about CRUCIAL WORLD NEWS? Case in point: Lil Wayne's engagement rumors! Weezy basically caused a Twitterpocalypse when he tweeted something mysterious early this morning: "She said yes!"

She said yes!

— Lil Wayne WEEZY F (@LilTunechi) February 15, 2012

So then everyone was all, "OMG WEEZY'S ENGAGED" and bottles were popped, and threatening letters from female fans to his girlfriend Dhea  were already stamped and ready to go. But Lil Wayne just cleared up the whole scenario: "I meant 'she said yes' to being my valentine!!!"

Ohhhhhhh now I see why!I meant "she said yes" to being my valentine!!! Hahahahahahaha! Y'all krazy! — Lil Wayne WEEZY F (@LilTunechi) February 15, 2012

So all is right again with the world, and Lil Wayne is not engaged. Jeez, I wish my tweets were this popular. How many followers do you need for people to start actually sending you at replies? Still waiting to make that milestone.

'Climax' collaborators Diplo and Usher

Releasing a song called "Climax" around Valentine's Day? Brilliant, brilliant PR move, Usher. Produced by the ever-versatile Diplo, "Climax" is a slow, sensual electro-pop song that's got the DJ's name written all over it.

Aside from this being just about the hippest R&B-tinged love song I've ever heard, the record is primed for getting just about anybody in the sack. (Sorry, had to be blunt.) The song speaks of a romantic evening with a girl Usher's been fighting with and yes, the double entendre you're thinking of is also in there, too. ('Cause you and I both know that whenever Usher says the word "climax" he's probably referring to some fun, bedtime-themed extra curricular activities.) Ursher croons in his buttery falsetto: "Don't wanna give in/ So we both gave up/ Can't take it back/ It's too late, we reached the climax."

Mark Ronson: dream hunk.

Even if Mark Ronson never does another thing in his life, he's the one who got Amy Winehouse to cover The Zutons track "Valerie." I.E. He's basically half of the reason Amy Winehouse is famous. We think it's totally appropriate to remind you that he not only did this, but he's like, SO EFFING HOT.

Here he was, walking amongst us mere mortals when he arrived for his taping of "The Late Show with David Letterman" in NYC yesterday. Um, I was like, five blocks away when this was happening. What Twitter feed to I need to follow to get these kinds of updates in real time?

From the hair to the outfit to that killer bag he's carrying that doesn't even make him look the slightest bit feminine (how?!), we're thinking Mark needs to start teaching classes to our dudefriends. Not to be a traitor to our generation or anything (pat yourself on the back if you caught that "Clueless" reference), but guys these days just fall out of bed expecting us to swoon? Please. Mark, show 'em how it's done.

Even goths gotta dance sometimes. With a little help from raven-haired singer Skylar Grey, Kaskade's latest electro banger shines a light on depression: "Don't be fooled by your emptiness/There's so much more room for happiness," Skylar sings in the "Room For Happiness" video. The public service announcement's delivered from a bleak bed in a prison cell -- and you thought you had a terrible Valentine's Day.

Lana Del Rey manages to keep her cool when signing autographs for a crowd of fans.

Lana Del Rey may be relativity new to the celebrity scene after making it big on YouTube and that little "Saturday Night Live" performance, but girl clearly has A TON of devoted fans. Being famous looks seriously intense, guys!

The "Video Games" singer was snapped in the midst of mayhem while devoted fans beg for her autograph. Judging by Lana's face, girl seems a little overwhelmed, but she flawlessly handles the crowd while remaining completely poised (and GORGEOUS!). If we were being bombarded by some unruly crowd hungry for our signature, we'd be foaming at the mouth and using our Sharpie as a weapon. (We don't condone violence -- drawing mustaches on fans that get too close is practically harmless.)

We hate to spill it to Lana, but she better get used to the pandemonium. Based on the recent success of her Born To Die album and the fact that the girl looks STUNNING in every single photo ever taken, she's going to be dealing with gazillions of admirers for very long time.

Christina Milian's got a brand-new song to go along with her brand-new record deal. Christina recently announced the news that she would be joining Lil Wayne's star-packed Young Money roster, and today we bring you her new record, "Mr. Valentine." Convenient timing.

"Mr. Valentine" is a sultry, reggae-infused R&B jam that speaks of a superhot hookup that's about to go down between Christina and a sexy mystery man: "Basement, lights down/Feels like we're in Kingston/The heat is melting off my dress, yea/Sneaking kisses all up on my collar bone.../Ya, ya, ya, Mr. Valentine." Really wish my Valentine' Day eve was gonna play out like that...

Hear Christina Milian's "Mr. Valentine" after the jump.

For my seventh birthday, my parents bought me a top-of-the-line, in-home karaoke machine. (They realllly love me, OK?) What is basically the only song I ever wanted to sing? Whitney Houston's "Run To You." Maybe I threw in some Mariah Carey "Hero" for good measure but mainly, it was a Whitney-only zone. Sure, I couldn't hit the big notes ('cause who can, it's WHITNEY), and maybe I didn't get that the song was a poignant love ballad at the time, but I still connected to the record in an inexplicable way.

Flash-forward to today -- I'll be 26 tomorrow, and "Run To You" still gives me chills. I fall a little bit more in love with it every time I hear its deliciously retro, synth-tinted piano intro. While "Run To You" features several of Whitney's signature belting notes, it's also shows an airier, more vulnerable side to her vocals. And let us not forget that the record was nominated for an Academy Award in 1992 for Best Original Song. (It lost to "A Whole New World" from "Aladdin," ugh.) And did you guys also know this song almost didn't see the light of day? "The Bodyguard" director Mick Jackson loved the melody but needed a love ballad for the film. The entire record was rewritten, and only then did it make it on to the famed "The Bodyguard" soundtrack. Close call, guys. Close call.
