Rihanna Werques Her Best Marilyn Monroe Impression (PHOTO)

Posted 5/20/13 1:00 pm EST by in Celebrity, Photos

Rihanna does her best Marilyn Monroe impression.

For Rihanna, a day off means dressing up and posing like Marilyn Monroe. #Bestlife!!

When she's not busy dominating her "Diamonds World Tour," Rihanna is most definitely up to something else naked awesome! Maybe it's dying her hair blonde, maybe it's crotch grabbing, maybe it's grinding all up on her bestie, or maybe, as is the case with Rihanna's latest Instagram, it's dressing up and posing like Marilyn Monroe! (Also, WE NEED THAT POLKA-DOT COUCH. Just so you know.)

Rihanna shared her Marilyn moment on Instagram, and captioned "Just a casual day at the office #MTFphotomoment." (FYI, "MTF" stands for Melissa Forde, Rihanna's BFF and Marilyn moment photographer). Also, if you've been paying attention in class, you'll remember that this isn't Ri's first time dressing up like a movie icon: The "Stay" singer has already rocked and OWNED her "Audrey Hepburn pearls" moment, not to mention that time she posed like an Old Hollywood starlet just because she could! Now Ri's morphing into Marilyn, which begs the very IMPORTANT question: "Is this how Marilyn Monroe felt"??? We (and Nicki Minaj!) are dying to know.

Is Beyonce Denying Her Pregnancy?

Posted 5/20/13 11:53 am EST by in Celebrity, Photos

Beyonce puts a stop to pregnancy rumors via Instagram.

Pregnant or not? We still don't know.

So, last we heard, E! News had "confirmed" via "sources" that Beyoncé MIGHT be pregnant with Blue Ivy No. 2! Then we did a little emotional tailspin, thought very hard and carefully about when Bey's pregnancy rumors began at the Met Gala, Beyoncé's cryptic "Blue Ivy needs company" sound bite, and the fact that she was forced to cancel her "Mrs. Carter Show" tour date in Antwerp, Belgium, "on doctor's orders." But you know Beyoncé: Girl's not one to take a rumor lying down! (Or, as the case MAY be, lying down on her couch eating ice cream-dipped pickles.)

Star Spotting: If Demi Lovato's New Album Is Sold Out, It's Probably Because Nick Jonas Bought EVERY COPY (PHOTO)

Posted 5/20/13 10:05 am EST by in Celebrity, Photos

Nick Jonas owns A LOT of copies of Demi Lovato's new album, "Demi."

Nick Jonas bought SEVERAL copies of Demi Lovato's new album, "Demi."

Demi Lovato may have a complicated relationship with the Jonas Brothers, but that does NOT mean the bros don't ride or die for her! Oddly enough, even though Demi dated Nick Jonas' older brother Joe, it's the youngest JoBro, Nick, who seems to be Stan-ing out the hardest for the "Heart Attack" singer! That said, if you couldn't find Demi's new album, Demi, anywhere in stores, it's probably because Nick already bought all the copies. No, seriously, every single copy of Demi probably lives at Nick's house.

While a good portion of pop music's finest were at yesterday's 2013 Billboard Music Awards, Nick Jonas was clearly on a shopping spree. And naturally, like any good friend would, he sent Demi a photo of his Lovato-centric bounty that Demi later tweeted out to her whole crew. She captioned, "Look at this guy... Said he bought every copy they had..!!! Love you @nickjonas, you are the best!!!!" Hmmm, 'love you, Nick Jonas,' huh? We know that's probably more of a brotherly "love you, Nick Jonas" than an "I'm in love with you and may want to have your babies in five years, Nick Jonas," but we certainly wouldn't be opposed to these two as a couple. Just as long as it doesn't get awkward around the Thanksgiving dinner table. Eh, on the other hand, maybe it's better that Demi has shaken her "Pom Poms" for only one Jonas.

Album Premiere: New Politics, 'A Bad Girl In Harlem'

Posted 5/20/13 7:00 am EST by in Celebrity, Music, Must See

Stream New Politics' brand-new album "A Bad Girl In Harlem."

New Politics explore single life in NYC on their sophomore release.

Copenhagen rock trio New Politics are naturally gifted at getting hearts racing -- just reference their shouty, high-energy tracks like "Yeah Yeah Yeah" and "Nuclear War." Heck, listen to their entire 2010 self-titled debut while you're at it, which comes packed with shrieking punk-tinged auditory references to Beastie Boys, Rage Against The Machine, The Hives, and Thirty Seconds To Mars. Now, after spending a few years in New York City and releasing their rowdy garage rock anthem "Harlem" last November, New Politics are gearing up to drop a brand-new album, A Bad Girl In Harlem, which you can listen to in full before its release.

Listen to New Politics' A Bad Girl In Harlem after the jump.

MTV Artist To Watch: Jake Bugg

Posted 5/20/13 6:00 am EST by in Celebrity, Live Performances, MTV Featured Artist, Music, Must See, Videos

MTV Artist To Watch: Jake Bugg

Meet MTV's latest Artist To Watch: freewheeling alt-folk wunderkind Jake Bugg.

When The Telegraph calls you "an East Midlands Bob Dylan," you know you're doing something right. I'm referring to, of course, 19-year-old alt-folk singer Jake Bugg (aka Jacob Edwin Kennedy), a very young artist with a distinctly older, wiser sound. While other guys his age are busy emulating the British invasion via '90s boy band throwbacks *coughOneDirectioncough,* Bugg seems more interested in re-energizing vintage genres, and sonically channels everyone from -- yep -- Bob Dylan to The Beatles (albeit LATE Beatles) on his self-titled debut album.

Justin Bieber Pulled A Quick Crotch Grab At The 2013 Billboard Awards (PHOTO)

Posted 5/20/13 12:15 am EST by in Celebrity, Photos

Justin Bieber grabs his crotch at the 2013 Billboard Music Awards.

Justin Bieber cements his Billboard win with a crotch grab.

Justin Bieber had a difficult decision to make while accepting his 2013 Billboard Award for Best Male Artist (!!!): Either let his baggy, drop-crotch pants fall to the stage (keep calm with that visual, Beliebers), or pull a classic crotch grab to keep them up. Well, at least that's what we think is going on in the above photo. Either that, or Justin is giving a little shout-out to Rihanna ('cause we know how much that girl lovvves her crotch grabs). Secret coded crotch grabs are the new wink -- pass it on!

The AB-solutely in-shape singer not only took home the coveted Billboard honor, but he also DOMINATED the stage with a performance of "Take You"! And when we say "dominated," we mean he showed up in a "Spinal Tap"-esque glass capsule thingy and danced like a BAWSE in leather pants. And without getting too gross, we really don't blame Justin for grabbing himself! Like we said: He's in leather pants, AND he just danced his a$$ off -- obviously that's one heck of a sweaty work out. Are you putting this together? Leather pants + Sweat = Horrible. Honestly, if we were Justin we would've taken off the leather trousers ENTIRELY and accepted the award in our underwear. Or not worn underwear at ALL like Ke$ha! NO ONE deserves that kind of chafing!

We're A Little Overwhelmed By This Miley Cyrus, Ke$ha, & Madonna Trifecta At The 2013 Billboard Music Awards (PHOTO)

Posted 5/20/13 12:00 am EST by in Celebrity, Photos

Miley Cyrus, Ke$ha, and Madonna pose together at the 2013 Billboard Music Awards.

What do you get when you combine Miley Cyrus, Ke$ha, and Madonna in one room? Sorry, we meant to say: What do you get when you combine Miley Cyrus, Ke$ha, and Madonna together in one room AT THE 2013 BILLBOARD MUSIC AWARDS? Well, we can't be absolutely certain, because we weren't THERE (sobs), but we assume that this visual triple threat has effectively caused every computer/iPhone/iPad EVERYWHERE to explode from all the AhhHHHhh. (In addition to our minds exploding, of course.) Because are you seeing what we're seeing?? It's the pop star trifecta to END ALL TRIFECTAS!

Snapped at the Billboard Music Awards in Las Vegas, Miley, Ke$ha, and pop's reigning Queen, Madonna, had a serious famous-person moment together at the show. Honestly, we just don't know where to start with all this. First, let's talk just about how Madonna, no matter how many multi-decade transformations, DOES NOT AGE. Second, what could they even be talking about?? Could it be anti-aging tips? Like, the best under-eye night cream? Or how to get through an entire award show in dressy lingerie? Or Miley's upcoming NEW ALBUM? Like, could Miley be pumping Madonna and Ke$ha for career advice? Whatever, all we know for sure is that this photo is HISTORIC. Like, it belongs in a pop star museum. Or our apartment. Either one.

Ke$ha Definitely Forgot Her Underwear At The 2013 Billboard Music Awards (PHOTO)

Posted 5/19/13 11:45 pm EST by in Celebrity, Photos

Ke$ha forgot her underwear at the 2013 Billboard Music Awards!

Ke$ha's wearing underwear... right?! (Nope.)

Leave it to Ke$ha to take the sideboob trend to a whole new level... with some side-butt! At first we were all, "WOAH! Is that K-$ looking all glammed up? What happened to her corn rolls and thick-rimmed glasses?! Girl looks so sophisticated and normal!" But then of course she turned to the side and we were all, WHOOP there it is. But now we have bigger questions like, did Ke$ha forget to put on underwear? Is there a butt pasty involved? I mean, we could guess how overwhelming it must be to get ready for an award show, and you're bound to forget something. But most people just forget their wallet or keys... Except obviously not Ke$ha. We don't want to even think about where she keeps her wallet and keys.

The "C'Mon" singer was snapped arriving to the 2013 Billboard Music Awards, where she served some side-butt realness. And if we've learned anything about the Illuminati lover from her "Ke$ha: My Crazy Beautiful Life" docu-series, it's basically that she's always full of surprises -- let's all just be happy she didn't arrive with a beard, OK? Oh, and we were also totally kidding about her not wearing any underwear! Of course she's wearing it! We think... Right? (Hope she doesn't step in front of a particularly windy sidewalk grate!) But yeah, how about we just let this whole underwear thing go because, well, knowing Ke$ha -- we don't really want to know the real answer.
