Every Single Outfit Madonna’s Ever Worn To The VMAs (Ever)

by 4 mins ago

Not sure if you’ve heard but it’s VMA season again. To prep for the 2014 Video Music Awards we’re taking a look back at some of the award show’s most iconic moments and outfits. And in doing that, it becomes clear that there’s pretty much no one more intrinsically tied to the VMAs than Madonna. Let’s take a look back at Madonna’s most iconic moments.

1984: “LIKE A VIRGIN” MADONNA

MadonnaGetty


The one that started it all. Madonna’s debut as “virgin” bride during the 1984 MTV Video Music Awards (the very first VMAs EVER) accomplishes two things: it puts Madonna on the map as Queen of Pop Music (if anyone challenges me on this, I will fight you), and establishes MTV’s annual award show as the place where water-cooler moments happen. The bride wore white, dripping in pearls and rosaries, and was tightly cinched in place with a “Boy Toy” belt.

1989: “EXPRESS YOURSELF” MADONNA

MadonnaGetty


Madonna debuted her “Express Yourself” single with its first live performance ever at the 1989 MTV Video Music Awards wearing a bustier, slouchy wide-legged railroad striped pants, and a magnifying glass necklace. On the beauty tip, baby Madonna’s sporting cropped curls and grown out roots presumably from her last film “Who’s That Girl?

For contrast, we’ve provided a photo of Madonna with a top on, which she wore while accepting the Viewer’s Choice Moonman in ’89. Because really, when hasn’t Madonna looked great in menswear?

Watch Aubrey Plaza Explain Her Penis-Filled Summer

by 5 mins ago

Aubrey Plaza has a good reason for being surrounded by penises this summer. She was bestowed with the title of Maid Of Honor in a wedding, she spilled to Conan last night.

She began her stint on the talk show with a sentence that almost left Conan speechless: “So. Many. Penises.” Let her explain. This summer, she was doing her due diligence as MOH by making sure the bachelorette party in Delaware—for which the hashtag #JUSTDEWEYIT was also created—had plenty, nay, even endless penis props and party favors all around.

The “Life After Beth” star prepped for the event by shipping the penis paraphernalia to her mom’s house, who was a tad surprised to find dick-shaped lollipops, hats and necklaces in place of her other daughter’s Catholic school uniforms. But the real fun ramped up once the girls hit the beach.

And the cake they acquired was so, uh, realistic, that Conan wouldn’t even show it on TV! Luckily, it’s on Twitter:

And finally, Penis relaxes.

But the action didn’t stop there. Aubrey filled Conan in on all the details of the debaucherous bachelorette party, noting that her fellow bridesmaids filled the “male stripper” quota with two local dudes from the beach.

The volunteers were very down to take it all off, and although the presentation was a little amateur, they were complete professionals about being compensated.

“They got what was coming for them,” Plaza said. And apparently, so did Aubrey.

Justin Timberlake Serenaded An 8-Year-Old Autistic Boy For His Birthday

by 5 mins ago

We all know by know that Justin Timberlake is a good guy. He’s the kind of date you’d want your daughter to bring home, he’s the buttoned up, suit-and-tie, clean cut nice guy. But last night he took it one step further.

In a post on a website The Manifest Station, Marika Rosenthal Delan, the mother of an 8-year-old boy with autism shared her story of attending a Justin Timberlake concert with her son Julian.

Marika and her husband took Julian to the concert for his birthday despite his young age because it was his one request, but like any mother, she was worried that the adults at the concert would be disturbed or annoyed by her son.

The Manifest Station


Julian getting as close to “suit and tie” as possible

Boy, was she wrong. She describes a group of “model-esque girls” who sat near them, and she was afraid that her son’s excited repeating of “It’s my birthday!! This is my present! This is my present! I love you JT!” would ruin their night. But in the end, it was these same girls who helped get Justin’s attention during a lull in the show, and let him know that his biggest 8-year-old fan was having a birthday.

And in typical Timberlake fashion, he not only acknowledged and addressed Julian, but dedicated a rendition of “Happy Birthday” to him, while the whole crowd helped sing. Watch Justin serenade Julian in the video below, and read more of Marika’s ...

Katy Perry Got Her Nose Pierced, And You Can Watch It Happen

by 8 hours ago

Katy Perry decided to take a break from the Prismatic World Tour to punch a little hole in her face. Well, nose, specifically. The “How We Do” singer took to Instagram to share an up close and personal account of deed, complete with a wincing “Ow!” that apparently made the piercer nervous.

“Last time I did this I was on my own with a safety pin & cube of ice @ 13,” Perry wrote. “This time I thought it was best I left it to the pro’s. Sorry mom (again)”

Oh girl… I know where you’ve been. If anyone’s going to put a hole in your body, it’s definitely best left up to the pros.

Katy hasn’t revealed the jewelry just yet, but I’ve got 20 bucks that says it’s going to be a teeny, tiny slice of pizza. After all, she needs to keep those accessories proper.

Katy Perry was recently nominated for a 2014 MTV Video Music Award in the Best Lyric Video category for “Birthday.” She’llface off against 5SOS, Demi Lovato, Austin Mahone and Ariana Grande for the coveted Moonman.

It's up to you to decide the winners of the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards! Vote now and tune in Sunday, August 24, at 9/8c ET to see who wins at the Forum in Inglewood, California. Plus, get the latest updates from all your favorite VMA artists on the MTV Artists App.

How 50 Cent Supported Remy Ma When She Was In Prison

by 2 mins ago

Hip-hop hasn’t been shy about its excitement over Remy Ma’s release from prison earlier this month. But there were a number of people who supported the Bronx native while she was locked up, too, and chief among them was 50 Cent.

“When I needed letters for my appeal, saying that if in fact I was released I would have a job and this is how I would stay out of trouble and reintegrate into society,” Remy began, during a recent interview with BET, “50 Cent had no problem not once, but twice signing letters saying that, ‘She would definitely have somewhere to work.’ And it wasn’t a delay. I didn’t feel like I had to chase anybody around.”

Rem also shouted out Keyshia Cole for supporting her early on, and said that once she was allowed to call cell phones, and not just land lines, she began to have increased contact with some fellow MCs.

That’s when she started connecting with guys like French Montana and Jadakiss, each of whom she collaborated earlier this week on “MegaDeath,” as well as Rick Ross.

“I gave him strict instructions to start writing his rhymes the day I spoke to him so it’d be perfect, without [a] flaw in it, by the time I got home,” she said of her convo with Kiss.

“I think they genuinely felt for my situation,” she added. “They didn’t look at me as Remy Ma the rapper. I was Remy and ‘Whatever you need I ...

Jennifer Lawrence And Alison Brie Fight Werewolves In This Failed TV Pilot

by 53 mins ago

Today in things the Internet spits out that you wish it hadn’t, a TV show pilot called “Not Another High School Show” from way back in 2007 has been making the rounds. It features “Mad Men” star Alison Brie and Oscar winner Jennifer Lawrence in a kitschy spoof of “Buffy The Vampire Slayer.”

How To Throw The Perfect JLaw Birthday Party

Brie plays the role of Muffy, a teenager tasked with hunting down the legendary beast “Wolfis Teenaguis” in her high school halls. Jennifer Lawrence makes a cameo appearance as a bewildered student lovingly dubbed “Sweet Tits” by a half-dead Wolfman. Check it out for yourself, and don’t say I didn’t warn you:

Michael Brown’s Parents Call Shooting A ‘Brutal Execution,’ Eyewitnesses Speak Out

by 46 mins ago

Mike Brown’s family, along with their attorneys, released a statement on Friday (August 15), hours after the police both identified the officer responsible for Saturday’s shooting and named Brown as a suspect in a robbery from earlier in the day.

Read the statement in full below, via one of the family’s lawyers, Benjamin Crump:

Michael Brown’s family is beyond outraged at the devious way the police chief has chosen to disseminate piece mil information in a manner intended to assassinate the character of their son, following such a brutal assassination of his person in broad daylight.

There is nothing based on the facts that have been placed before us that can justify the execution style murder of their child by this police officer as he held his hands up, which is the universal sign of surrender.

The prolonged release of the officer’s name and then the subsequent alleged information regarding a robbery is the reason why the family and the local community have such distrust for the local law enforcement agencies.

It is no way transparent to release the still photographs alleged to be Michael Brown and refuse to release the photographs of the officer that executed him.

The police strategy of attempting to blame the victim will not divert our attention, from being focused on the autopsy, ballistics report and the trajectory of the bullets that caused Michael’s death and will demonstrate to the world this brutal execution of an unarmed teenager.

Despite the police naming Brown as a suspect in ...

Dear Jay Z, It’s Time For A Roc-A-Fella Reunion Tour

by 14 hours ago

Dear Jay Z,

I hope this letter finds you well, and why wouldn’t it? You’re Hov, the greatest rapper of all-time.

I’m not sure if you heard the news, but your former Roc-A-Fella protégé Beanie Sigel was released from prison yesterday after serving two years stemming from tax charges.

Now, I know things haven’t been all the way good between you and Beans — we all heard your line on Drake’s “Pound Cake” — but I also know seeing him free brought a smile to your face. No matter what you or any of your former Roc-A-Fella running mates have been through, you guys created a legacy that can’t be diminished. And that brings me to my next point.

Hov, I think it’s time to put the band back together. Listen, I’m not expecting Roc-A-Fella 2.0; that time has passed and it’ll be damn-near impossible to recapture that magic. Still, I do believe the time is right for a Roc-A-Fella reunion tour.

Yes, I know you’re currently On the Run with wifey, but hear me out. You and Dame Dash are both hustlers at heart and the crowds you would draw to see the Roc back together would surely bring in enough paper for everybody. Enough paper to put aside whatever differences for one last summer run.

The line-up would be epic: Jay Z, Kanye West, Beanie Sigel, State Property, Memphis Bleek, Cam’ron and the Diplomats; Clue can DJ, Pain in da Ass can be the host and Just Blaze and ...
