Both Beyoncé and Chromeo released songs in the last calendar year entitled “Jealous” and now Nick Jonas is joining the trend with his second solo single by the same name.

When MTV News caught up with the former JoBro earlier this summer he explained why the track, which drops Sunday (September 7), was the perfect follow up to “Chains,” the first release off his upcoming LP.

Everything You Need To Know About Nick Jonas And Demi Lovato’s New Song ‘Avalanche’

“‘Jealous’ is a really great representation of the range of [my debut] record and it is an up-tempo song, basically the whole concept is about jealousy,” the singer told MTV News. “It’s basically saying this girl is so f—ing beautiful that you just get jealous and you can’t help it and I think it’s something a lot of guys can relate to but are afraid to say.”

Nick is far from shy when expressing his feelings on the subject, penning the lyrics after an upsetting night out with his sweetheart Olivia Culpo.

“I’m with my girl and [some other guys are] looking at her and I was like, I’ve just been training for three months how to be a real fighter for a TV show and I could hurt ...

Taylor Swift‘s brand new single—and second-ever No. 1 song—”Shake It Off” has the singer bumbling her way through a variety of different dance routines, but the gist of the song is to just be yourself no matter what.

Which is something that this little girl seems to have down pat. In fact, in the Instagram video that her mother shot of her, she’s got moves that rival Swift’s own!

Tay Tay herself took to Twitter to point out just how free and joyful her dancing was:

Yes, this is definitely a deeper level than the rest of us. Sometimes it takes a child to really reveal the beauty in life.

Watch the moves yourself to experience the full-on perfection of her carefree dancing. Ahhh, to be young! Never change girly, never change.

She’d probably do a great job choreographing the 1989 tour to be honest! Considering Taylor’s history with fan responses, something just might come of this after all.

Today (September 4), in an essay written for the Washington Post James Richardson came out as gay.

Coming out can be a difficult transition for anyone, but in Richardson’s case it has even more weight: he’s a senior spokesman for the Republican party. Richardson, who is currently the Vice President of Public Affairs at Hynes Communications has worked in the past as a spokesman for the Republican National Committee, an adviser for prominent Republican figures like Govs. Haley Barbour and Jon Huntsman, and has even helped elect those who continue to argue against gay marriage.

Richardson has been open about his support of gay rights before but had never openly admitted that he was gay. As a member of the Republican political faction, admitting this fact will likely turn some of his colleagues and supporters against him, something that the Georgia native reflected on this fact in the essay:

“For my admission here, I will alienate friends whose faiths regard my sexuality as culturally corrosive. I’ll suffer the snickering of those across the aisle whose politics regard my own as personally injurious. And conservative clients may regard me as a liability.”

Yet, he is determined to let his voice be heard in order to come against Georgia’s explicit same-sex marriage ban. He goes on to argue that most people who now vote in favor of gay marriage were once against it, and of those who have been won ...

Fabolous took to Twitter to rant about his disdain for followers who took the ALS ice bucket challenge or tweeted about Joan Rivers’ death to be “cool.”

“Such a follow, do what everybody else think is cool so that’s what ima do generation,” the rapper wrote Thursday (September 4). “Sh-t is sick.”

Does he have a point? Maybe. Was it super ironic that he chose to use a social media platform built on the very idea of following to call people out for, well, following trends? We’ll take “Yes” for $500, Alex!

The “Cuffin’ Season” MC went on to doubt whether or not ice bucket challengers actually made donations to ALS and criticized them for wasting water.

“Awareness was part of the goal. But donation is a goal. Cures, research, & treatment can’t be paid for with being aware,” he added. “I thought we was tryna get water for Africa & other third world countries. But this year the cool thing was dumping buckets for awareness.”

Apparently, all of the groupthink has made the Brooklyn spitter “sick of this generation.”

While it’s true that Fab has every right to post multiple rant tweets, we’re pretty sure the ALS ice bucket challenge was very effective in raising awareness and money and that everyone is tweeting about Joan Rivers because she was downright iconic.

The Queen is back in the studio!

Britney Spears shared a photo Thursday night (September 4) of herself sidled up to a recording mic, tossing out a signature peace sign and sporting an ear-to-ear grin. “Studio today! Yay!” the pop star wrote.

“Yay!” is probably the understatement of the year. It’s more like “OMFG YASSS BISH YASSS!” With the underperformance and lackluster reviews of Britney Jean, the “Work Bitch” singer is due for a musical resurgence.

As for the theme of the album? Well, a dirty-dog cheating boyfriend sounds like the perfect material for a fierce new anthem. Britney’s back to single and ready to mingle, addressing the infidelity at her Las Vegas show on Sunday (September 1).

“Well, by now everyone knows my boyfriend cheated on me. But the best part of breaking up,” the singer continued as she leaped forward toward the front of the stage, “is going on first dates. OMG, OMG, I need a hot guy. Where are the hot guys here tonight?”

Spears’ studio session comes perfectly timed for an end-of-residency celebration next year, when the Vegas performer will wrap up her stay at Planet Hollywood in February 2015. It’ll be a happy New Year after all!

Comedic legend Joan Rivers passed away today (September 4) after suffering from cardiac arrest and being placed into a medically induced coma.

As Hollywood sheds tears in remembrance of her fabulous presence and pioneering efforts in comedy, Rivers continues to be the quickest to the punchline with an over-the-top self-planned funeral service outlined in her 2013 book I Hate Everyone…Starting with Me.

As always, she had plenty of unforgettable quips—even when it came to the subject of death. How did Joan feel about funerals? She absolutely “loves” them, calling the mournful event a “red carpet show for dead people.”

“It’s a chance for mourners from all walks of life to accessorize basic black,” Rivers joked. “And to make a fashion statement that is bold enough to draw attention away from the bereaved, but subtle enough so that no one knows that it’s happening. And, it’s a great way to have quiet fun.”

The fashionista also laid out exactly how she wished to be celebrated in death, from the dining options all the way to the entertainment. Here’s the rundown:

“When I die (and yes, Melissa, that day will come; and yes, Melissa, everything’s in your name), I want my funeral to be a huge showbiz affair with lights, cameras, action…”

“I want Craft services…”

“I want paparazzi…”

“And I want publicists making a scene!”

“I want it to be Hollywood all the way. I don’t want some rabbi rambling on; I want Meryl Streep crying, in ...
