Hi, kids! Snowpocalypse II: Frosty's Revenge sorta disappointed, didn't it? Before you break into that stockpile of canned goods, take a moment to read this week's roundup of all the best things on the Internet.

1.) If 2010 was Celebrity Engagapalooza, then 2011 is Celebrity Bumparoo (like Bonaroo, get it?). So let's start a list pregnant famous people: Kate Hudson, Jewel, Mariah Carey, MAYBE Khloe Kardashian, Victoria Beckham, Pink, Natalie Portman, Marion Cotillard, Tia Mowry (remember her?!), Owen Wilson (well, his girlfriend or whatever), Jane Krakowski, Rachel Zoe, Penelope Cruz and Jennifer Connelly. (MTV News)

2.) Mr. Katy Perry--Russell Brand, that is--covers the February issue of Cosmopolitan, and I don't know how I feel about it. Weirded out, mostly, I think. (Just Jared)

3.) Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens have reportedly rekindled their very sexy romance. Sorry, other girl who has my name and also writes for this blog. (Buzzworthy)

4.) First there was Greyson Chance, the kid who sang Lady Gaga better than Lady Gaga. Now there is Timmy, the kid who I'm not entirely convinced isn't actually Ke$ha. (Buzzfeed)

5.) I love Kanye West's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, but like, it's not an album you can really play out loud in front of people, what with all those NSFW lyrics. Luckily, this blog has written a version of "Power" substituting all the naughty bits with yummy snack. (Tumblr)

6.) Former MTV PUSH Artist of the Week The Black Keys OWNED "Saturday Night Live" this week, tearing up the stage with live performances of "Howlin' for You" and "Tighten Up." Now that you love them, just remember where you heard about 'em first. (Hulu)

7.) Beyoncé and Miley Cyrus are good at a lot of things: singing, dancing, wearing hot pants. But, as you'll see in this video compilation by Urlesque, there are some things they are not so good at. Namely: British accents. Related note: Now that Katy Perry is married to a Brit, shouldn't her accent be really practiced and awesome? It's not. (Urlesque)

8.) 50 Cent made $8.7 million with one tweet. Insert joke about it being payable in half-dollars here. (NY Post)

9.) Avril Lavigne's video for "What The Hell" is going to be in Avatar-style 3D!!!!!!!!! Maybe she'll partner with Gaga to get some of those cool Polaroid glasses, and we can all wear them and watch it together on my couch. Just us blondes being blondes. You know how we do. (DirectLyrics)

10.) "Comparing Jane [Lynch] to the rest of the cast is like comparing the Great Barrier Reef with a piece of dog s***" And that, my friends, is why you should watch this video, featuring Sofia Vergara, Matthew Morrison, Cory Monteith and Heather Morris, with the help of a few other New Directions, sing "Nuthin But A Glee Thing." (Funny or Die)

+ Oh gosh oh gosh oh gosh!! New/old David Archuleta song? "It's All About Love"!?!?!? (Team Archie)

+ Based on the recently leaked pics from the March ish of W magazine, we think Madonna and boy toy Jesus Luz make a pretty smokin' couple. We have no idea if the rumors about those two crazy kids are true, but for Madge's sake, we sincerely hope they are. (Hard Candy)

+ Mandy Moore and Ryan "Call Me Bryan And I'll Freak" Adams are engaged. Dorky dudes, there IS hope! (People)

+ This just in: Ne-Yo has always secretly wanted to work with Marilyn "Paleface" Manson. Even weirder? The longtime Antichrist admirer is also a closeted Duffy fan! "I like some of Duffy's stuff," Ne-Yo admits. "If she can escape the 'I'm a blonde Amy Winehouse' thing, she'll be OK." (Spinner)

+ And speaking of Amy, the beehived brunette's latest hospital stint is being attributed to a "reaction to medication." For a change. (AOL Music)

+ Oh, and Trick Daddy never called Rick Ross a prison guard, hence they're not in a fight. Or, as TD puts it: "I refuse to go through some fake rap beef about something somebody on the computer said." Translation: Never believe anything you read on the computer, kids! Well, except this. (MTV)

+ Snoop Dogg takes a cue from Natalie Portman and decides it's time to go Bollywood! ""I like how the Punjabis get down," the rapper explains. Plus, you know, there was also that wicked cool wedding scene in Bend it Like Beckham. (NY Mag)

+ Rage Against the Machine guitarist Tom Morello says his new solo album "rocks harder than the last one." Guess that means it's time to invest in a marginally less crappy pair of speakers. (Rolling Stone)

+ And elsewhere, Jewel's still stubbornly trying to convince herself that yodeling is cool. (The Boot)

+ The Killers skillfully avoid revealing anything of interest about their upcoming new album. (MTV)
