Mother Monster took some time after her ARTPOP Ball tour stop in St. Paul, Minnesota, to touch a few young lives at the Gillette Children’s Hospital on Wednesday (May 21).

With Haus monster Emma in tow, Gaga spent one-on-one time and snapped a few selfies with smiling patients.

According to Kare11, Gillette staff were notified just hours before that the singer would be making an appearance at the facility.

The hospital said Gaga “was a true inspiration tonight when she stopped by to visit.”

When a Redneck Heaven waitress named Antoinette told Max and Nev about her Internet crush, Albert (a.k.a. T-Lights), on tonight’s “Catfish” episode, she positively beamed. The Florida-based rapper, whom she’d met on Instagram, made her smile with every sweet comment he posted and each text he sent. So, when Antoinette discovered that she was one of a select few who hadn’t been duped by a mysterious online date — and that T-Lights hadn’t lied at all — she was truly smitten. Plus, when the artist performed a song he’d written for his Insta-gal at his studio, she looked ready to melt.

Still, a month later, the duo told Nev and Max in two separate video chats that their relationship hadn’t progressed beyond the first perfect date, with distance proving to be a sizable roadblock. Considering Antoinette had said early in the episode that she was prepared to start a new chapter in her life by potentially moving to the Sunshine State, it was odd that she suddenly insisted she wasn’t ready to leave her family behind in Texas. And when she revealed that she was dating someone else locally, it seemed like she had all but forgotten about the musician who once gave her butterflies.

Taking into account the way the couple met, and how quickly they connected, what could have ruined this almost-success story? Did the physical distance really take its toll, or was that just a polite excuse? Is T not willing to give up ...

Future and Ciara just welcomed baby Future into the world Monday, and now they’re finally taking their bundle of joy home.

The singer took to Twitter this evening to express her excitement about leaving the hospital as a new mother.

“As I Leave The Hospital, I Cry Uncontrollable Happy Tears:)..I’m Now Responsible 4 Being The Best Mom I Can Be…,” she tweeted. “So Many New Challenges, Experiences, & Moments 2 Create Ahead…#ImReady. #Thankful #ThankYouGod #ThankYou.”

Not surprisingly, the Honest MC was right there by her side, and tweeted out his appreciation for his fiancée, while also managing to plug his latest Kanye West-assisted single.

“S/O my wife giving birth to my handsome baby boy..#iWon again Thank God,” he wrote.

Enjoy your first day at home, Future Zahir Wilburn.

Let’s be honest: “American Idol” needed this one. Real bad. The once-unconquerable reality singing franchise is entering its twilight years (and not the hot, sexy vampire kind) and Wednesday night’s (May 21) bloated two-hour finale was the perfect chance for America to pick a winner that might re-energize the show whose average viewer was born three years after the Beatles formed.

It was the usual hurry up and wait for the results, filled with nearly a dozen duets, medleys and, once again, eyebrow-singeing thunder from Rock and Roll Hall of Famers Kiss.

But instead, America went the other direction and chose 23-year-old classic rock lover Caleb Johnson. The thickly maned southern man muscled his way through the season with a series of performances that brought back the heyday of 1980s hair metal and 1970s hesher rock and clearly America was ready to get down and boogie with him.

That left 17-year-old Jena Irene — whose mix of crowd-pleasing EDM beats and Paramore-style pop rock seemed primed for top 40 radio — in second place and “Idol” with a tough hill to climb finding a spot for meat-and-potatoes lung-buster Johnson in a market where straight-up rock is a dying breed.

The finalists, who are supposed to go to Jena’s prom together, hugged it out and Caleb could only say, “This is crazy. This is crazy.” He celebrated his win by singing a bit of his head-banging coronation anthem “As Long As You Love Me” in between a group hug with his top 10 compatriots.

Here’s what else ...

Ok, Destiny’s Child is not officially reunited.

But Michelle Williams, Kelly Rowland and Beyoncé Knowles did just prove, again, that they still know how to come together for some of that old DC magic Wednesday (May 21) with the release of the very uplifting, “Say Yes!”

The song, which is the lead single for Williams’ upcoming fourth solo album, Journey to Freedom, is a remake of a time-honored Nigerian gospel hymn, “When Jesus Says Yes.”

This ain’t your typical church song, though. The ladies manage to lift up Jesus while singing in perfect harmony over a very catchy, uptempo, and dare I say it, pop beat, with a classic choir chorus: “When Jesus says yes, nobody can say no/ When Jesus says yes, nobody can say no.”

Michelle takes the lead, then passes the baton to Bey, who then lets Kelly sing anchor leg, each singing the phrase, “I’m not worried about a thing, cause I know you are guiding me/where you lead me Lord I will go, I have no fear cause I know who’s in control.”

According to Hot 97’s Miss Info, the triumvirate also shot a video for the record to support Michelle’s new LP, which is slated to arrive later this year.

In today’s “WTF” world news, Miley Cyrus has posted selfies that I will never, ever unsee. Someone is having a little too much fun in the tub.

Yes, Miley, you’re a “freakkkk.” You win.

I’m pretty sure that pineapple is in the original photo. Why are you bathing with a pineapple, Miley? That cannot be good for your exposed delicate areas.

You know what, nevermind the pineapple. Sleep is overrated.

Jason Derulo told MTV News last month he’d have “all kinds of people wiggling” in his music video for “Wiggle” — “from grandmas to girls all shapes and sizes, colors, from all over the world” — and he didn’t disappoint. In fact, it seems like we were the only ones not invited.

The clip for his Talk Dirty track, which features Snoop Dogg, is a party somewhere near paradise, kept alive by copious amounts of twerking.

Snoop and Derulo serve as hosts, and they let everyone in on the wiggle action. When we spoke with the Talk Dirty singer last month, he said linking up with Snoop for the clip was “amazing.”

“When you meet people that you’ve been watching your whole life, sometimes you are impressed and sometimes it kind of takes away from what you appreciated about them so much, but in this instance he matched it and superseded what my expectations were,” Derulo said of Snoop. “He was just such an amazing dude and so chill. We had an amazing time.”

Nicki Minaj’s new single, “Pills N Potions,” is many things. It’s rap and it’s pop. It’s personal to her and it’s something to which others can relate. It’s catchy and it’s, well, catchy.

The song’s lyrics are at once pointed and ambiguous. The Queen of hip-hop addresses situations with a specificity to suggest that the people and circumstances are real — but never actually names names.

Like many of her fans, we were wondering: Who is she addressing on her lead The Pink Print single? Let’s a take a look at some of her lyrics.

Nicki opens the track by singing, with a hook that’s repeated throughout:

“Pills n potions/ We’re overdosing/ I’m angry but I still love you/ Pills n potions/ We’re overdosing/ Can’t stand it but I still love you”

She may be addressing any number of people or relationships here, from her longtime boyfriend, Safaree “SB” Samuels, to possibly even her fans, who adore her but expect the world. Or maybe it’s about hip-hop, which has both embraced and criticized her throughout her career — with much of the criticism coming following her last album, Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded.

“Ayo, they could never make me hate you/ Even though what you was doin’ wasn’t tasteful/ Even though you out here lookin’ so ungrateful/ I’ma keep it movin’ be classy and graceful”

Could this be addressing her former hairstylist, who is now suing her for $30 million, and making public statements (“out here”) attacking her (“lookin’ so ungrateful”)?

“I told ‘em it’s no friends ...
