Is Justin Bieber the new Robert Pattinson? I mean, sure he's shorter, younger, smiles way more, seems 100,000 times more fun, pretty much OWNS Twitter, and he's far better at music. But, like R Pattz, Justin Bieber not only has impressive hair, but he's a TOTAL ladykiller. Girls twice, even three times Justin Bieber's age are like SCREAMING their makeup off for The Biebs.

Watch him perform "One Less Lonely Girl" from today's episode of It's On With Alexa Chung, and see why Justin Bieber is basically Robert Pattinson, minus the British accent and brooding.

Hopefully you didn't miss Rihanna on yesterday's episode of It's On With Alexa Chung. Yes, Rihanna -- whose new single, "Hard" could be the next "Umbrella" -- did touch upon the outpouring of fans who've supported her decision to speak out and help encourage other women who've been the victims of abuse. But she spent most of her time on It's On With Alexa Chung totally relaxed, joking around, meeting her fans (one of whom received a Rihanna makeover) and having fun with fashion -- specifically Alexa Chung's Museum of Rihanna Art, which exhibited some of Rihanna's best accessories to date and gave her the chance to discuss how and why she's adopted such edgy looks. It was a great look at a woman who's clearly taken back the power which is hers, moved on, and is back to being a fun-loving young woman who's living her life.

There have been many huge guests on It's On With Alexa Chung, but possibly no one as internationally massive, iconic, or sought-after as the inimitable Lady Gaga who appeared live on It's On With Alexa Chung on MTV today.

Missed the show? Watch Lady Gaga discuss her upcoming "Bad Romance" video, guesting on Beyonce's upcoming "Video Phone (Extended Remix)" video, her upcoming The Fame Monster release and all of its amazing collectible contents, and see why Lady Gaga doesn't think she's "made it." Seriously. Plus, see what Lady Gaga has to say about Miley Cyrus, what she thinks of the red no-pants outfit she wore on TRL, what she likes to eat late at night, the Hitchcock references in "Bad Romance," and how she's liberating her fans -- her "little monsters" -- though her music.

The cast of Glee was here at MTV today (!!!!!!IDIE!!!!) on It's On With Alexa Chung, and as soon as they were done playing musical chairs, I had the MOST! FUN! EVAR! interviewing them. The interview is coming soon -- seriously, we fit a clown car's worth of people into a tiny photo studio and ended up covering Ped Eggs, Oprah, the Dreamgirls soundtrack, and the Full House theme song... and the Glee soundtrack, of course! -- but until then, check out a few photos of  Mark Salling, Lea Michele, Cory Monteith, Chris Colfer, Kevin McHale, Dianna Agron, Amber Riley (Amber liked my shoes! We had a moment! OMGLEE!) and Jenna Ushkowitz.

And after the jump, watch the Glee cast on It's On With Alexa Chung, and check out a few drawings that a few of the Glee kids made for me, and see if you can match up the drawing to the cast member who drew it. Your choices are:

We are all a happier species with Weezer in our lives. It's a proven fact: Weezer is the gift that keeps on giving. And the fact that they just came out with their own line of celebratory Raditude Weezer Snuggies is even more joyful! Anyway, Rivers and co. stopped by It's On With Alexa Chung yesterday to rip through their new single, "(If You're Wondering If I Want To) I Want You To."

Particularly in full effect was Rivers Cuomo, untethered from his restrictive guitar, doing his best young Elvis Presley meets Ed Grimley dance moves.

Props also need to parceled out to guitarist Brian Bell who opted for the rarely seen tuxedo-with-Flying-V-guitar combo. Brian, we see you, and we salute you.

Now that you've memorized every breathe and beat of Tokio Hotel's live performance of "Automatic" from It's On With Alexa Chung, it's time to take a look back at Tokio Hotel backstage in the It's On With Alexa Chung studios before their big U.S. debut performance of "Automatic."

I don't necessarily want one of the Snoop Dogg dessert pizzas or whatever he made on today's episode of It's On With Alexa Chung, but I very much do want a studded plaid jumper.
