NEW YORK — There's never a dull moment when Mr. West is in the building. Pusha T previewed his long-delayed and much-anticipated solo debut, My Name Is My Name during a listening session in New York City on Wednesday night, and Kanye came out to show his support, complete with a good ol' fashioned rant for the "culture vultures."

Surrounded by a crowd of music insiders in an open loft space, Pusha began to play cuts from the album, while rapping along, and it wasn't long before West joined him for a very vocal cameo.

"This Yeezy right now speaking to y'all," Kanye screamed to the crowd that quickly circled around him and Pusha. "This the heart of the muthaf---ing city. Act like y'all ain't have that muthaf---ing Clipse album and sh--. Act like y'all ain't base y'all whole sh--, whole lifestyle off this n---a Pusha T.

"Everything is Pusha T," 'Ye continued. "Pyrex Vision, that's Pusha T. Fear of God, that's Pusha T. This n---a the heart of the muthaf----ing culture for you culture vultures. This the only n---a spitting that wild muthaf---ing hip-hop sh-- right now — that's why I stand next to this n---a. I don't give a f--- about none of these corporations, none of these f----ing sellouts — this muthaf----ing Pusha T!"

During the night Pusha played a brand-new Kendrick Lamar verse, and songs like "40 Acres," which he teased for MTV News back in summer 2012.

And there was plenty more of Yeezus' expletive-filled speech, during which he admitted to being a bit intoxicated. "This ...

Fans are already hype for the November 11 release of Lady Gaga's ARTPOP, but a new tease from Mother Monster may get them even more excited.

Appearing on Bravo's "Watch What Happens Live" Wednesday night, the singer revealed that she'll soon be wrapping up her . The final clip in the series is on its way and will make it a trilogy!

Beyoncé, however, may not be around for the last chapter.

"Oh my goodness! Well, when she's available. Beyoncé's very busy," Gaga told host Andy Cohen. "Anytime [she wants to work together], I love Beyoncé. We had such a great time making 'Telephone.'"

Gaga kicked off the Jonas Akerlund-directed series — about a man-killing badass — back in 2009, with "Paparazzi," and then continued the story the next year with Bey in tow for the . While Gaga confirmed the upcoming clip, she wouldn't give a title, cheekily saying, "blank will be coming out soon."

The star also said she was working on ideas for an ARTPOP tour. Gaga recently started performing again after canceling her Born This Way Tour in February to undergo hip surgery. She performed and then teased several new ARTPOP tracks at the iTunes Festival earlier this month.

During her often-silly appearance on the late-night show, Gaga opened up about crushing on female strippers in Russia and all the members of One Direction. She warned her fans not to do Molly and then defended Miley Cyrus' VMAs performance.

"I just think everybody needs to lighten up and leave her alone because it's ...

The Boy Who Lived is retired, but the Wizarding World of Harry Potter will live on without him — all thanks to "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them," a brand-new movie series penned by "Potter" author J.K. Rowling.

News of further cinematic adventures set in the "Potter" universe took fandom by surprise on Thursday (September 12), even if Rowling's eventual return to witchcraft and wizardry was always expected.

"I thought Rowling would return at some point through an encyclopedia, not with a full-blown movie series," Andrew Sims of Hypable.com, a respected voice among the "Potter" fandom, tells MTV News. "At first I was in denial, then in shock, then ecstatic."

That's a sentiment shared by many other "Potter" lovers, due to one key factor: Rowling is writing the films herself.

"This is her baby," says Sims. "This isn't someone else's idea with Rowling uninvolved. She knows what we want in a new 'Harry Potter' spinoff series and she's going to make it happen for us."

Rowling released the book "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" in 2001 as a charity benefit. Told from the perspective of fictional author and Magizoologist Newt Scamander, "Fantastic Beasts" appears in the "Harry Potter" films and novels as required-reading for Hogwarts students. Indeed, according to Rowling's own writing, Newt eventually served as a Hogwarts headmaster.

Despite these connections to the "Potter" universe, fans should not expect too much crossover between Newt and Harry's stories. In announcing the movie, Rowling revealed that "Fantastic Beasts" takes places 70 years before the events of "Harry Potter," but isn't a "Potter" prequel. ...

With Loki's helmet and scepter tucked safely into an Asgard closet (for now), star Tom Hiddleston is donning a new menacing persona — that of vampire rock-god Adam in the film

Actress Tilda Swinton plays the other titular lover, Eve, who reunites with her bloodsucking beau only to have their relationship tested by little sister Ava, played by Mia Wasikowska.

One doesn't just become a rock 'n' roller overnight, though, so who did Hiddleston take inspiration from?

"There was a sort of romantic template, this idea of the gothic, romantic poet that is kind of the spirit of rock 'n' roll even before the advent of rock 'n' roll," Hiddleston explained to MTV News' Josh Horowitz at the Toronto International Film Festival. "We talked about Syd Barrett and David Bowie and Mick Jagger, and for me, it was just a pleasure to sit and listen to [writer/director] Jim [Jarmusch] talk about Tom Waits and Iggy, who are on speed dial for him, which is amazing. And we also talked about [Mary] Shelley and [Lord] Byron and Hamlet. Brian Eno, White Hills, Bach — people who essentially have been infused with the spirit of rock 'n' roll. Jimi Hendrix."

But don't queue up for a ticket thinking you'll hear Hiddleston hum a tune or two.

"I think in Jim's mind, [Adam is] someone who once sang, but he's been making music for so long, he's actually become fascinated by some very, very refined form in that all the florid stuff he used to be interested in — the Shubert, the Paganini, ...

Once the Beatles episodes wrap up, fans and the cast will finally get the chance to say goodbye to Cory Monteith, who died in July at the age of 31. Jane Lynch revealed what it was like to shoot the October 10 tribute episode.

"It was hard, and it was beautifully written. We grieved together, and it was so important for the crew to grieve as well, so we kind of all grieved as a big family," she shared with People. "It was really hard to do, but it was a really beautiful episode."

In August, show creator Ryan Murphy revealed more details about the tribute episode and how the writers would deal with Monteith's death.

"There were a lot of things that ...

One Direction are heading home in the extended fan cut of their Morgan Spurlock-directed flick, . And we don't just mean they are heading back to the towns they grew up in. In the new clip, 1D hang out in the empty "X Factor" U.K. studio, where they first met in 2010.

In the sneak peek of the new version of the movie, out Friday, the group heads to the "X Factor" stage in London. While there, they sit at the judging panel table and reflect on the experience on the show right before exploding into global superstars. Zayn Malik shares, " 'X Factor' feels like so long away and so much has happened in the last few years."

While the guys goof around in the studio, poking fun at their mentor Simon Cowell, who once judged them, Louis Tomlinson adds, "It's really weird being back. It just brings back so many memories."

Later on, Niall Horan opens up about the massive fanbase the fivesome has amassed in the last three years. He says, "The good thing about us is the fans have grown up with us. People always say in interviews, 'Do you think the fans will grow up with you?' The truth is they've already grown up with us."

The extended version of the movie will include 20 extra, never-before-seen minutes, as well as four additional songs that were not featured in the original cut of the movie, which hit theaters last month. Spurlock spoke to MTV News back in August, explaining that he had more than enough footage ...

French Montana was one of the many targets of Gucci Mane's recent Twitter rampage, and though Gucci's camp now claims that his account was hacked, not everyone is buying it.

The "Pop That" rapper notes that some of the tweets were accurate, with information that only Gucci or someone in his camp could've known.

"Whoever writing that, they gotta be real close to him," French told MTV News. "Cause the situation that he was talking about with me, he wasn't lying."

Gucci claimed that Deb Antney, Waka Flocka's mother and former manager to a host of rappers including French and Nicki Minaj, had stolen money from her clients. "60 k. French montana. Was. Laying in deb bed. Ask. Warner. 60 k advance I took as insult gave to your aunt t. Im rich bitch" Gucci tweeted. The tweet has since been deleted along with Gucci's profile.

French confirmed that the business with Antney did take place and that they were the only people who would know the details of said meeting. French wouldn't provide exact information of what occurred, but he confirmed that he was there. "With me, he just said I was there. He don't really got nothing to say about me." French said.

Gucci also criticized former protégé Waka Flocka Flame, saying that he had sexual relations with a slew of celebrities including Nicki Minaj. Nicki quickly denounced the accusation, stating "May God strike me dead if I ever had sex wit that man #ugliness," in a tweet she later deleted, according to the Daily News. "He's sick ...

Miley Cyrus left the crowd in awe after her raunchy performance at 2013 VMAs, but she didn't spend too much time thinking about it since she went directly to the studio to work with Kanye West afterwards.

During a visit to on Wednesday, Mike Will Made It, who executive produced Miley's new Bangerz album, revealed that they both skipped out early to hit the studio with 'Ye.

"We went to the studio with Kanye, so we went right back to work. We watched the VMAs a little bit then went straight to the studio," he told MTV News' Sway Calloway, adding that they were already completing a remix of "Black Skinhead."

"We're all working on that and it's about done, we're touching the beat up a little bit," he added. "It sound crazy."

Miley's performance dominated headlines in the days following the August 25 show, and both Mike Will and Kanye West thought she came out on top. "It was entertainment. She does pop music, so she did exactly what she supposed to do," Mike Will said. "She made the world talk about her for over a week and they're still talking about her--We're talking about her right now, so she won."

Kanye agreed. "He told her that she did right too," the Atlanta producer explained. "'Ye is somebody who understands it. People that understand it aren't gonna have anything too negative to say about the performance."

"It's really the people who don't understand it and it's really the media. Because if you ask a regular person they're gonna [say] ...
