Cher Lloyd causes trouble in her new video, 'Want U Back.'

Cher Lloyd reminds us of that badass friend in high school who skipped class (but still got good grades), refused to wear her gym class uniform ('cause they were lame) and never sported a zit a day in her life. We so wanted be her. (Still do!) If you're wondering if sassy girls ever grow out of being effing awesome, they don't. Case in point: Cher's newest video, "Want U Back" (not to be confused with the other version), proves that bad girls just wanna have fun... at everyone else's expense.

Watch Cher Lloyd's new video for "Want U Back" after the jump!

Listen to two new Karmin songs, 'Hello' and 'I'm Just Sayin.''

Today's gonna be a dope day for Karmin diehards, because we're bringing you not one but two blazing new Karmin tracks. Slated to appear on their major label debut LP, Hello, both "I'm Just Sayin'" and "Hello" are insta-hits in our book. They might even rival our borderline unhealthy slightly intense obsession with Karmin's most recent, "Brokenhearted." Only time will tell!

Listen to Karmin's "Hello" and "I'm Just Sayin'" after the jump.

Jessica Simpson and fiancé Eric Johnson welcome baby girl Maxwell Drew Johnson!

It HAPPENED, people. It actually happened! After an approximate 118-month pregnancy, Jessica Simpson and her fiancé, Eric Johnson, welcomed a bouncing little baby girl into the world: Maxwell Drew Johnson! After a (VERY) long, hard road, Jess gave birth Tuesday morning, May 1. So yes, that means she gifted the world another female Taurus, and coming from a fellow female Taurus, we're totally the best people ever. (We also have a strong sense of self-esteem!)

Congratulations to the lovely couple, congratulations to Jessica Simpson's feet for enduring the last nine months (she refused to wear flats!) and welcome to the world, baby Maxwell!  We can't wait to watch a reality show featuring you and your adorable cousin, Bronx Mowgli! "Bronx & Max Take Day Care." Call me, E!

Britney Spears is arguably the most influential pop star of our generation, so we've gotta let her slide every once in a while when a less-than-stellar demo surfaces. I mean, it's not like Team Britney actually sanctioned the release of "This Kiss," let alone wanted the public to hear it, right? Right.

Listen to Britney Spears' unreleased "This Kiss" after the jump.

Kelly Clarkson on the set of her new video, 'Dark Side'

Flawless queen Kelly Clarkson is getting ready to hit us with a new music video, "Dark Side," and the wait is already much too long for our liking. Kelly was spotted on the set of the video this past weekend in Los Angeles, and it looked like she was having a ball. Props to Kel for being able to keep those sandals on (that we're kind of hoping don't actually show up anywhere in the video) while jumping in the air -- as someone born with literally not one iota of grace, I find this feat beyond admirable.

We're glad Kelly's quenching our Clarkson thirst before she heads out on tour this summer with The Fray and Carolina Liar. I mean this in the best possible way, but what kind of roller coaster of emotions is that tour going to be?! While The Fray's on you'll be texting your ex you want to get back together, and then Kel will take the stage and you'll tell him to go eff himself. I want to go to there!

Thomas Fiss teaches you how to 'Let Go' in his brand-new video.

Ummmm, not to be a total girl about this or anything, but holy eff, Thomas Fiss is a DIME! I know I should be focusing on his music and all, but how can I even listen when I'm too distracted by HIS FACE. Moving right along, if you're thinking Thomas' mug looks familiar, then you might recognize this pop crooner from his stint in the boy band Varsity Fanclub. But Fiss has since gone solo and managed to catch the attention of OneRepublic frontman Ryan Tedder, who, ya know, produced his EP. Pretty safe to say the kid's already ballin' out.

If you came of rap age in the (very) late '90s and early '00s like I did, it should be no surprise how fast this new video for "Zero Dark Thirty" from indie rap veteran Aesop Rock will remind you of hazy dorm rooms, warm 40s and misguided and ill-informed conversations with white girls with dreads about the important differences between rap and hip-hop. But it actually is kind of surprising, and now embarrassing, and I thought I got rid of all those memories. Anyway, if you're just joining us, this is not A$AP Rocky -- the confusion is apparently just a coincidence (though it's a little hard to believe that with how internet savvy the A$AP mob are).
