Before Lady CaCa was a serious fartiste who wears hamster balls as fashion, she was just a regular girl who went by the name of Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta. Above is that regular girl on MTV’s Boiling Point back in the day. Boiling Point was this bunk ass hidden-camera show that challenged bitches to keep their cool when faced with fuckery. I couldn’t ever get through an episode of that crap without shouting “SHANK THE BITCH” at least once. I mean, why would you not want to unleash your inner cunt when you have the chance? Makes no sense.

Anyway, it’s nice to see Lady CaCa as a norman human being who used to wear Forever 21 and isn’t constantly blabbing about how she shits out masterpieces on the regular.

And if you don’t flip the bitch switch while watching this mess from the side, then you win! This clip is side-eyeing itself.

Hey, I didn’t call Kanye West a jackass, the President did. But he’s still a jackass either way. I’m sure he’s been called much worse since he yanked the mic away from Taylor Swift at MTV’s Video Music Awards in September.

When I heard that West and Lady Gaga would be touring together, I thought, what a horrible blow for Gaga. Not that she’s any stranger to controversy, what with her blood-spattered performances and all. Actually, these two might be perfect to tour together.

But alas, the show will NOT go on, at least not with West. Apparently, he’s being dropped from the tour, whether, as he told Jay Leno, he needed to take some time off, or whether he was asked to take some time off (I vote for the latter).

Gaga told Billboard, “Kanye’s going to take some time off. But the good news is that I’m going on tour in a few weeks.”

Ironically, the ill-fated tour was named “Fame Kills.”

The Office star John Krasinski and actress Emily Blunt announced their engagement about a month ago but details about it have been scarce — until now!

Emily tells MTV, “All I can say is that there were flutes playing in the background, butterflies, there were angels showering us with rainbow drops.”

Rainbow drops!

As for when the wedding will be, Emily shared, “”We don’t know. We actually aren’t sure yet. We’re being uselessly unplanned about this. But I promise you will be the first to know. You will know before my mother.”

Thought it might be awhile ’till Krasinski’s real-life wedding, his on-screen one is next week! Pam and Jim will tie the knot on The Office this Thursday (October @ 9PM ET/PT on NBC.

During an interview with MTV News, Mariah addressed the case of the album’s missing songs. Mariah had worked with heavyweight producers Timbaland and Jermaine Dupri on a number of tracks, none of which made it onto Memoirs. The songstress assured fans, however, that they’ll soon get a chance to give everything a listen.

"They’re not on the album, but we have a special something planned that [record exec] L.A. Reid would be very angry with me if I discussed right now on MTV," she teased. "But for the fans, there will be more than one Timbaland track and at least one J.D. track."

I can admit that I’m no longer the hip young kid that I quite honestly never was. So it didn’t surprise me that MTV was able to launch a new show and I was completely unaware of it. But, I’ve talked to younger friends who do watch MTV, and they don’t remember any promotion for Popzilla either.

I found it purely by accident, and when it popped onto my screen, I was looking at something that looked like a mix of old Walt Disney animation and something the folks at Jib-Jab would have come up with. Utilizing photographs for the heads of celebrities, exaggerated slightly for comic effect, and little white Disney gloves, the show skewers celebrities and pop culture in short skits like Robot Chicken, and it’s far funnier than it has any right to be.

Mariah Carey showcases her new fragrance “Forever” at Macy’s Herald Square on Tuesday (September 29) in New York City.

The 40-year-old singer’s album Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel and new film Precious are both due to be released in November.

But her latest album does not reflect her relationship with her husband Nick Cannon. “If they think that, they haven’t seen either one of us on an interview,” Mariah told MTV News. “And I doubt that!”

Without the “The Hills” and that infamous Speidi couple, reality television would have never been the same. Fans and viewers have gotten the opportunity to witness a false pregnancy, multiple marriage attempts, and a variety of friendship and family wars — and it’s all thanks to Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt.

This wild duo, who believe they are “Barack and Michelle famous" (er, at least according to the NY Post), have provided hours of entertaining — and sometimes excruciating — drama and comedic arguments for the MTV series. Unfortunately, the woman responsible for the creation of Speidi is regretting ever introducing them. "I want to apologize to everybody,” Kristin Cavallari recently told “The Hills After-show” host Dan Levy, “I had no idea what it would turn into." No need to worry, Kristin! We all love the crazy, bickering couple.

“The Hills” season premiere airs tonight, and we know there is much more in store from the “Speidi” couple. Whether it be tantrums stifled by jealousy or disagreements about starting a family, we can’t we to see what Heidi and Spencer will mix up next!

Janet Jackson attends the Giorgio Armani Fashion Show as part of the Milan Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2010 at the Milano Fashion Center on Thursday (September 24) in Milan, Italy.

“During my 30 years in fashion, I explored many different roads, from minimalism to ethnic, but most of the time, people expect the same style from me and don’t understand change,” designer Giorgio Armani said. “That’s my challenge.”
