Katy Perry, Rihanna, Ke$ha And Nicki Minaj Hooker It Up At The MTV VMAs

What do these four broads all have in common? They were all shut out at last night's MTV Video Music Awards. Oh, well—at least they all hooked up to compare who looked more like a drag queen.

MTV VMAs 2010: The Highlights—Including Lady Gaga Announcing New Album 'Born This Way'

I literally just finished live-blogging the MTV Video Music Awards over on Idolator, and really three things stuck out tonight (aside from the fact that Robyn's performance with Deadmau5 was cut off after 30 seconds):

1. Florence + The Machine's performance of "Dog Days Are Over" (which won for Best Art Direction In A Video) was unmatched. Yes, last year at some point I said here on Chart Rigger something along the lines of "Hey, Florence—Tori Amos wants her pussy back." But that was then! I was young an naive!



2. Upon winning Video Of The Year for "Bad Romance"—just one of her eight wins in the 13 categories she was nominated for—Lady Gaga announced the name of her third album. It's called Born This Way. By the way, fucking Cher presented Gaga her award, while wearing her "If I Could Turn Back Time" thong!



3. Chelsea Handler = Best VMA host ever. After her opening monologue, she straddled Rick Ross atop a motorcart and rode off into the audience. Just one of her classy lines from the evening: “Get your tongues ready because I want one shoved where it’s not supposed to be.”

30 New Episodes of Beavis and Butt-Head Coming to MTV

Beavis and Butt-Head are coming back.  According to REVIEWniverse, Mike Judge, the creator of Beavis and Butt-Head is looking to have his dynamic duo make a comeback and is currentlyoutlining 30 brand new episodes of the series.

The show, as if you don't remember, follows two stupid, obnoxious and rude high school kids living together in the fictional town of Highland. The two get themselves into plenty of trouble and strange social situations at school, out-of-school, working their dead-end job at Burger World and just messing around in their neighborhood. In addition to their antics outside of their house, Beavis and Butt-Head would also partake in some Mystery Science Theater 3000-style criticism of various rock/heavy metal music videos from the likes of Black Sabbath, Metallica, and many more.


Mike Judge is currently developing the new episodes with the intention that they return to MTV where it all started. However, it’s important to note that there is currently no official deal in place with MTV, so the episodes may end up finding a new home. And the good news is, fans of the original series won’t have to worry about any unfamiliar updates to the animation style or show formula as Judge is not only sticking to the show’s traditional “ghetto-tech aesthetic,” but it will also feature Beavis and Butt-Head mocking contemporary music video clips between the various sketches.
