Lindsay Lohan doesn't always approve of people using her name as a pop culture reference, but it seems that the starlet doesn't mind a certain New York MC making reference to her in song. Lohan took to Twitter over the weekend to show some love to Nicki Minaj for her track "I Am the Best."
"See, you told me I would lose but I won/ I might cop a million Jimmy Choo's just for fun," Minaj raps on the track. " 'Cause bitches couldn't take what was in me/ Australia, Sydney, might run up in Disney/ Out in L.A. with Lindsay/ Got the eye of the tiger, the lion of Judah/ Now it's me in my time, it's just me in my prime."
"Love Nikki Minaj for the shout on her track 'im the best' xox so cool!" Lohan wrote. "I heart @nickiminaj - thanks for the shout! 'I'm the best' by Nicki Minaj. Check it."
Lohan has become quite the music critic via her Twitter account, giving fans some insight into what she's been listening to since leaving rehab earlier this month. "I love Adele's 'Rumor Has It' off her new record ... Such a good vibe to it ... makes me happy xoxo," she wrote. "I love this track. The XX remix is great too!" she added about the singer's "Rolling in Deep." The starlet also gave props to another song, tweeting, "MUST HAVE DOWNLOAD! Jessie J 'Do It Like a Dude.' Love her!"

Nicki Minaj, Mark Zuckerberg Shake Up 'Saturday Night Live'
Facebook founder meets onscreen alter egos Jesse Eisenberg and Andy Samberg, while Minaj rocks the stage and hilarious sketches.
By Mawuse Ziegbe
Jesse Eisenberg just scored an Oscar nomination for his portrayal of Facebook wunderkind Mark Zuckerberg, and on "Saturday Night Live" he got the chance to share the screen with his real-life inspiration.
After Eisenberg prattled on about how confident he is in comparison to the characters he often plays, Andy Samberg crashed "The Social Network" star's opening monologue as a bratty version of Zuckerberg. The two compared their Zuckerberg styles — Eisenberg speaks in short sentences, while Samberg just wears a sweatshirt and says "I'm Mark Zuckerberg" — while the real social media whiz chopped it up backstage with "SNL" executive producer Lorne Michaels. Eventually, the 26-year-old billionaire took the stage, and when it was revealed that Eisenberg and Zuckerberg have never met, Samberg quipped "Awkward!" and ran off. Zuckerberg then called the Oscar-nominated tale of the origins of Facebook "interesting," and Eisenberg graciously let the Internet entrepreneur introduce the show.
Eisenberg assumed a number of alter egos on Saturday's broadcast, like the horny adolescent who rubbed balloons on his partner's private parts during a demonstration of static electricity on "Mr. Wizard's World." The "Network" actor also turned up as a hapless contestant on VH1's "Don't Forget the Lyrics" who blurts out whatever's on his mind, like belting "one extra testicle" instead singing Robert Palmer's "A Bad Case of Lovin' You."
The star also turned up in a sketch reminiscent of his "Network" performance, as a college student who gets roped into a television interview with a surly, geriatric reporter who easily loses his train of thought and continuously slams his mic into Eisenberg's face.
Eisenberg also appeared as a castmember of MTV's "Skins" who is reduced to hawking fried chicken and used cars by reciting clumsy product-placement lines, and paired with Samberg once again for an ad for "El Shrinko," a product that reduces man bits to a size the ladies like — or so they say.
Eisenberg also joined forces with musical guest Nicki Minaj for the "Bride of Blackenstein" sketch. Minaj played a bootylicious but mouthy creation of a groovy evil genius while Eisenberg hobbled along as the hunchbacked flunky.
Minaj also rocked a digital short as a geeky voyeur with an affinity for eyeing folks during inappropriate times like, say, a funeral, and even showed viewers how to do the Peeping Tom-approved dance "The Creep."
In addition to showing off her funny side, the Trinidadian-born MC also treated viewers to two theatrical stage performances. Minaj first played "Right Thru Me," taking the stage in a voluminous mauve ball gown made of frilly tiers as pink-tinted fog enveloped the set. The star topped off the dress with a two-toned version of the Gumby-shaped wig that captivated fans when she recently hit London. Perhaps it was the gigantic gown, but Minaj stayed put for most of the song. However, she did keep the energy up by dipping in and out of her animated voices.
Minaj ditched the princess look for a funky colorful bodysuit for "Moment 4 Life." She also swapped out her Gumby wig for the towering, streaky hairpiece from her "Bride of Blackenstein" sketch, and added thigh-high magenta boots. This time, Minaj took advantage of the stage, energetically strutting around. The MC crouched and gyrated throughout the set as she showed off her singing skills, and wrapped up the performance with a dramatic pose and sneer — the type of out-of-nowhere zaniness her fans have come to crave.
"I mean, to be raised in New York, and to always hear about 'SNL,' " Minaj told MTV News last week. "I never had the honor of getting a pinkie toe in the building, now [I'm] here and it feels incredible."
What did you think of "SNL" this week? Let us know in the comments!

Britney Spears' 'Hold It Against Me' Tops Billboard Digital Songs Chart
Single debuts at #1 and breaks Taylor Swift's previous sales record.

Britney Spears' "Hold It Against Me"

Don't hold it against her, but Britney Spears has a hit on her hands. Her new track, "Hold It Against Me," which was released last week, topped the Billboard Digital Songs chart.
The Dr.Luke/ Max Martin-produced song, the lead single from the singer's yet-untitled March album, sold 411,000 downloads in its first week available for purchase. The debut also means that Spears broke a record. According to Billboard, that is Spears' best sales week for a digital song as well as the largest debut for a woman as a lead artist. She beat out the record previously held by Taylor Swift. In February, Swift's "Today Was a Fairytale" sold 325,000 downloads; incidentally, Swift broke the record previously held by Spears when that track debuted at the top of the charts.
Spears bumps Bruno Mars' "Grenade" to #2; Wiz Khalifa moved up the chart to #3 with "Black and Yellow," followed by Katy Perry's "Firework," which dropped two spots to #4. Other newcomers to the chart include Avril Lavigne's "What the Hell" at #6 and Jay-Z and Kanye West's collaboration, "H.A.M.," at #10. Enrique Iglesias' "Tonight (I'm Lovin' You)" (#5), the Black Eyed Peas' "The Time (Dirty Bit)" (#7), Lil Wayne's "6 Foot 7 Foot" (#8) and Ke$ha's "We R Who We R" (#9) round out the top 10.
Spears is also the top seller on iTunes. Last week, when the song was released, Spears immediately jumped to the top of the iTunes charts in 16 countries. "This is absolutely incredible!" her manager Adam Leber tweeted last week about the song's success. "Brit's fans never cease to amaze me."

Taraji P. Henson Gets FAB On "Chelsea Lately"
Taraji P. Henson was red-hot on last night's "Chelsea Lately." She hit up Ms. Handler's couch for some chit-chat about her fab new nude PETA ad, her new Lifetime movie, and how bad she needs a real man.
Read on for the video clip....
As for the reason she decided to do a tv movie, Taraji says this was a "full circle" moment for her as Lifetime gave her her first shot at acting. She played a cop on the show "Division" years ago.
The fabulous Ms. Henson rocked a red mini dress to show of her gams and sparkly Louboutins. After showing her naked PETA ad, she and Chelsea discussed why Taraji can't find a man and she listed off her requirements: tall, can protect her, and isn't a boy hidden in a man's body. WORD.
Peep the vid. Her Lifetime movie, "Taken From Me: The Tiffany Rubin Story," premieres Monday, January 31st.

Britney Spears Is A 'Tigress' In 'Hold It Against Me' Video, Choreographer Says
'I love nudity,' Brian Friedman teases about Jonas Åkerlund-directed clip.

Sure, details are limited on what the Jonas Åkerlund-directed video for Britney Spears' "Hold It Against Me" is going to look like, but when Brit's choreographer, Brian Friedman, sat down with MTV News, he teased some scintillating details about the video.
"I didn't necessarily have pressure with this — it was more excitement," he said of working with the pop diva again. "I haven't been with Britney in five years on a project, so it was excitement to be back with her. It was excitement to get her dancing really hard again 'cause she's had a couple of years where she's been dancing different styles of dance and it hasn't been me.
"It's not necessarily that she hasn't been dancing, it hasn't been what I get from her, and what I seem to get from her is this tigress quality," he continued. "And she prowls. She really dominates when she does my choreography, and that's what I wanted to get back. Excited yes, scared no."
Shot over two days last weekend, the video shows Spears in a look she tweeted from the set. The preview pic, a lo-res photo, shows Spears from the shoulders up, standing with her back to the camera and her face turned toward it. The singer is in a red outfit, surrounded by a wreath of microphones.
While Friedman danced around any specific details about the clip, he did share that the video will have 10 male dancers. He also told us his favorite part: "I love nudity," he teased.
"I can tell you that Britney is wearing a couple of hats in this video — not literal hats, but she's playing roles in this video. That is what I can give you," he explained. "In every role, she is dancing. She is going to be dancing throughout the whole video. Like I said: Dance is the focal point of this video."
He also teased a bit about the costumes: "She's taking fashion risks. Things we've never seen her wear before she's wearing in this video, and I think it's just very sexy and it's a little bit playful," he added. "She's going to be doing something in this video that we've never seen her do. I'm not gonna tell you what that is but she's going to be sweating and she's going to be getting bruised and battered."

'The Rite' Captures Friday Box Office
Thriller makes $5.3 million.

It appears that audiences are still down to get freaked out by a creepy performance from Anthony Hopkins.
The Oscar-winning actor's latest skin-crawling, onscreen turn, "The Rite," topped the Friday box office. The film, which is based on real-life events and stars Hopkins as an unconventional exorcist, debuted with $5.3 million. When MTV News sat down with Sir Hopkins recently, the veteran star admitted he has a gift for freaking out fans.
"I know how to do those parts," he said. "Not because I'm scary, but because I know how to scare people. ... It's a question of being quiet and not overplaying it," he explained. "You let the script and the audiences do the work for you. You don't have to play evil."
Behind "The Rite" is last week's box-office winner, "No Strings Attached. Ashton Kutcher and Natalie Portman's portrayal of "sex friends" who shrug off the possibility of a relationship in favor of casual lovin,' scored $4.3 million. Friday's earnings kick the film's total haul to just over $30 million.
Jason Statham's latest firepower-heavy flick ,"The Mechanic," came in third place. The tale of an assassin looking to avenge the killing of his mentor with the help of his son (Ben Foster), debuted with $3.6 million.
"The Green Hornet" took the fourth-place spot at the Friday box office. Moviegoers coughed up $2.9 million to catch Seth Rogen as the classic masked superhero duke it out with Los Angeles-area baddies. The figure kicks the film's total estimated tally to $70 million.
"The King's Speech," the dramatization of the UK's King George VI's struggle to overcome his stammer with the help of an eccentric speech therapist, rounded out the top five. The film, which recently picked up 12 Academy Award nominations, scored $2.8 million. The movie's total estimated haul now stands at around $63 million.
Check out everything we've got on "The Rite," "No Strings Attached" and "The Mechanic."

Nicki Minaj will appear on SNL tonight and she recently shot this promo with The Social Network star Jesse Eisenberg and SNL star Kenan Thompson:
Asked about her appearance, Nicki said:
“Being a part of ‘Saturday Night Live’ feels absolutely incredible. I still don’t even believe it’s true. I’m not even going to believe it’s really happening until—well, I’m going to DVR it, because I can’t watch it, because I’ll be on it. But until I see it back on DVR, I’m not even going to believe I was really on the show. This is epic, this is monumental, this is historic stuff.”
Nicki's episode will surely be a "Moment 4 Life" and airs tonight on NBC.
Diddy's son Quincy made the mistake of falling asleep in the same room with his Dad and a can of shaving cream. So what happened? Watch the clip below:
Dang...Quincy must have really been tired to sleep through all of that. And who knew Diddy was such a prankster?

YBF EXCLUSIVE: Terrence J & Rocsi Dish On Love, Haters & Get FAB For A Promo Shoot
TheYBF.com exclusively caught up with TV personalities Terrence J and Rocsi of BET's "106 & Park" during a promotional photoshoot the pair shot in New York City.
Come inside to see what the duo have to say about their personal love lives, all the haters (not everyone loves Tasha Mack's new man), and giving back to the community.
Although Terrence J and Rocsi of "106 & Park" enter the living rooms of millions of people every day, we still don't know much about them. TheYBF.com's Kourtney "K-Rich" Richard ran up on the duo recently at a promo photoshoot for their show. And we got some exclusive behind the scenes pics and video of the besties.
As they changed in and out of fab looks from Giuseppe, Intermix, Top Shop, and H&M, we got Terrence to dish on the haters who aren't feeling his role as "Tasha Mack"'s new man on "The Game", Dante, how they both tolerate negativity, and their philanthropic sides.
Despite being two of the most attractive correspondents on BET, both Terrence and Rocsi are single. Terrence says, "I'm not dating anybody right now. I'm so focused on my career." And as for those rumors about him dating Brandy...they are "just friends." *eyebrow raised*
And about those few people who aren't feeling his role replacing Rick Fox on "The Game", he says he doesn't hear or see them. People have been calling him "corny" for years and also said "106 & Park" wouldn't last. And he proved them wrong then.
Meanwhile, Rocsi does find the time to date, but says she's in the midst of a "drought" and hasn't been able to find "the right one."
Outside of "106 & Park," Rocsi and Terrence are heavily involved in giving back to the community through charity.
Rocsi tells us:
"I have been dealing with my philanthropic side. Everybody knows RocStarRebuilds.org is my main passion. I'm always about giving back. I'm in talks of doing a charter school (in New Orleans) hopefully with an art and business program."
And Terrence has been raising money for the people of Haiti with Wyclef Jean. He spoke on his Haiti rebuild efforst saying:
"I feel that when you are in a position with a voice or a position of power I think it's imperative that you give back. And the Haitian community really touched a nerve in me."
Watch our exclusive behind-the-scenes footage above of the twosome's "106 & Park" photoshoot. And check out our photo gallery below for the first pics from their upcoming "106 & Park" promo shoot.

Call Her "Ms. Hill": Lauryn Pulls A Diva Move At Sundance + Naomi Campbell's Perjury In Perfume Trial
Apparently Lauryn Hill isn't the easiest artist to deal with as folks from Sundance are talking about her diva behavior, which includes making EVERYONE address her as "Ms. Hill." Get the deets inside plus a status update on Naomi Campbell's perfume trial which isn't going in her favor...
In addition to starting shows late, seeming disconnected from the audience, and eccentric outfits, Lauryn Hill pulled a "Diana Ross" move in Sundance demanding that everyone address her as "Ms. Hill."
L-Boogie's management warned staffers at Harry O's in Park City, Utah, that she was only to be addressed as "Ms. Hill" during her Wednesday night performance.
"Everyone sort of rolled their eyes and chuckled but promised to oblige," said a source.
Once she hit the stage, she played for two hours with an 11-piece band. And fans got their monies worth good because Harry O's Konstantine Deslis said, "She put on the best show I've seen in six years."
We're actually not mad at the Ms. Hill demand. But if she starts the whole "Don't look directly into my eyes" thing....
In supermodel news...
Naomi Campbell is in danger of being charged with perjury in her perfume trial. Naomi's former agent, Carole White, claims Na, her manager, and her lawyer lied under oath to avoid losing a $10 million suit over Naomi's perfume royalties.
Carole is suing Ms. Campbell for allegedly reneging on a perfume deal. Although Naomi said Carole overstated her involvement with the fragrance, Carole has offered a recording of a 2006 meeting about the deal, which she says proves Naomi and her lawyer lied.
Yesterday, Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Judith Gische called the allegations "serious," but said she will give the Campbell legal team an opportunity to defend themselves before she decides whether to refer them to the district attorney and charge them with perjury.
As for a statement from the supermodel, her lawyer "categorically" denied the allegations on behalf of everyone involved. This chick stays caught up in some mess doesn't she?

Eva Longoria: "Desperate Housewives" Damsel
Continuing work on her hit show, Eva Longoria was all smiles on the set of "Desparate Housewives" in Los Angeles on Friday (January 28).
Clad in a cute pink dress with a little white sweater, the brunette beauty meandered about the ABC show's trailer area in between takes as she closed out another long week.
The sighting comes as there's much speculation as to whether or not Miss Longoria is indeed moving on after splitting from Tony Parker.
The 35-year-old has been seen spending time with Penelope Cruz's brother, Eduardo Cruz, which has kickstarted plenty of relationship rumors - though nothing has yet to be confirmed.

Britney Spears' 'Hold It Against Me' Video To Be Directed By Jonas Akerlund
Director has worked with Madonna and Lady Gaga in the past.

The Lady Gaga vs. Britney Spears battle continues now that Gaga's "Telephone" video director, Jonas Åkerlund, has been tapped to direct Brit's "Hold It Against Me" clip.
"Dance, dance, and more dance," she tweeted Monday about working with the veteran music-video director. "Getting ready to shoot the video for HIAM this week with Jonas Akerlund. Super excited!"
Åkerlund has directed a number of controversial videos over the course of his two-decade career. The Swedish auteur achieved mainstream success when he joined forces with Madonna to direct her video for "Ray of Light" in 1998. The duo reunited in 2000 for "Music," starring then up-and-coming comedian Sacha Baron Cohen, and they courted controversy in 2003 with Madonna's dark "American Life" clip.
He later worked with Madge on "Jump" in 2006 and "Celebration" in 2009. He also directed Madonna in the 2006 documentary "I'm Going to Tell You a Secret," which chronicled Madonna's experiences during her Re-Invention World Tour.
Åkerlund hooked up with Gaga in 2009 for her cinematic "Paparazzi" clip, which starred "True Blood" star Alexander Skarsgård, but the duo stepped up their game in 2010 with Gaga's over-the-top "Telephone" video, which featured a prison break, a mass murder and "Thelma & Louise" undertones.
Prior to working with pop queens like Spears, Gaga and Madonna, Åkerlund made headlines and gained quite a reputation as a provocateur making videos for Moby's "James Bond Theme" and the Prodigy's "Smack My Bitch Up." Åkerlund's other big videos include Metallica's "Turn the Page," U2's "Walk On," Christina Aguilera's "Beautiful" and Pink's "Sober."
While details are scant as to what the "Hold It Against Me" video will look like, it's being reported that the costuming will be done by Falguni & Shane Peacock, who have worked with Katy Perry, Fergie and Cheryl Cole. They will be working on Indian-inspired costumes, according to Brit fan site BreatheHeavy.com.
"Britney's manager contacted us and we exchanged some e-mails with her about style and fashion. We sent sketches of our models to Britney and she chose the ones she liked the most," Falguni told the site. "Britney wanted to experiment with our style. She will be seen wearing a long black dress with pink and red detailing."
In other Spears news, not only should fans be excited for the video, but "Hold It Against Me" producer Dr. Luke also teased fans about the singer's second single. "Britney's 2nd single gonna be fire!!!!!!" he tweeted. "Watch out!!!!!!"

Charlie Sheen's Hospitalization Resulted From 'Hernia'
'I'm not dying,' troubled actor reportedly said in phone call from the hospital.

Prior to troubled "Two and a Half Men" star Charlie Sheen's trip to the hospital on Thursday with what were described as stomach pains, someone called his neighbors Dr. Paul Nassif and his wife, "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Adrienne Maloof-Nassif, according to People.com.
"We did receive a call from Charlie's house this morning, asking for medical assistance and advice ... and immediately insisted the caller dial 911," the couple said. "Dr. Nassif also immediately called 911." A short time later, Sheen was rushed by ambulance to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.
"As longtime friends, we are obviously very concerned about his well-being," the couple added. "Our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family right now and we wish him a speedy recovery."
The actor has not responded to the variety of salacious rumors about his activities in the days before his latest health crisis, but "Extra" quoted an unnamed source who spoke to Sheen in the hospital, who said the sitcom star told him, "I'm not dying."
TMZ described Sheen's ailment as a hiatal hernia in Sheen's stomach, a condition he's reportedly suffered from for several years and which causes "horrible, horrendous pain."
As for what caused the hernia, one of Charlie's pals, Steve Brodersen, told "Extra" that it was a preexisting condition that was exacerbated by Sheen laughing too hard at something he was watching on TV. It's possible Sheen could undergo surgery on Friday (January 28) to repair the hernia.
While doctors at Cedars are not discussing the case, Radar Online quoted an unnamed source close to the star as saying that "Charlie's red blood cell count was low and his white blood cell count was high" and that he was "not alert" and appeared dehydrated. A high white cell count could indicate an infection; Sheen recently suffered an ear infection.
Multiple outlets reported that sources close to Sheen denied that this latest incident was related to a drug overdose, but the actor was said to have been partying hard with a number of adult film stars at his Hollywood home for several days before the 911 call. One of the porn stars, Kacey Jordan, reportedly tweeted a provocative photo of herself from inside Sheen's home a short time before the star's collapse.
Neighbors say that Sheen had thrown a party the night before, where women were heard singing along to Red Hot Chili Peppers songs. The party went late into the night and into the early morning hours. Production of his hit CBS comedy is not expected to be affected by the hospital stay because the show is on hiatus this week.
Sheen was also hospitalized last October in New York. He reportedly stopped communicating with his sober coach, a therapist that aids with addiction recovery, shortly after the incident. "He has not heard from Charlie since he told him not to start New Year's Day!" a source told UsMagazine.com.

She tweeted out the song credits as well. The sing was written and co-produced by Gaga. Fernando Garibay and DJ White Shadow also got co-production credits on the track, off her May album of the same name.
Intro
It doesn't matter if you love him, or capital H-I-M
Just put your paws up
'cause you were Born This Way, Baby
Verse
My Mama told me when I was young
We are all born stars
She rolled my hair and put my lipstick on
In the glass of her boudoir
"There's nothing wrong with lovin' who you are"
She said, "Cause he made you perfect, babe."
"So hold your head up girl and you'll go far,
Listen to me when I say"
Chorus
I'm beautiful in my way
Cause God makes no mistakes
I'm on the right track baby
I was born this way
Don't hide yourself in regret
Just love yourself and you're set
I'm on the right track baby
I was born this way
Post-Chorus
Ooo there ain't no other way
Baby I was born this way
Baby I was born this way
Ooo there ain't no other way
Baby I was born this way
Baby I was born this way
Ooo there ain't no other way

I'm on the right track baby
I was born this way
Don't be a drag, just be a queen
Don't be a drag, just be a queen
Don't be!
Verse
Give yourself prudence
And love your friends
Subway kid, rejoice your truth
In the religion of the insecure
I must be myself, respect my youth
A different lover is not a sin
Believe capital H-I-M (hey hey hey)
I love my life I love this record and
Mi amore vole fe yah (love needs faith)
Repeat Chorus and Post-chorus
Bridge
Don't be a drag, be a queen
Whether you're broke or evergreen
You're black, white, beige chola descent
You're Lebanese, You're Orient
Whether life's disabilities
Left you outcast, bullied or teased
Rejoice and love yourself today
Cause baby you we're born this way
No matter gay, straight, or bi
Lesbian, transgendered life
I'm on the right track baby
I was born to survive
No matter black, white or beige
Chola or Orient made
I'm on the right track baby
I was born to be brave
Repeat Chorus
Outro/Refrain
I was born this way hey!
I was born this way hey!
I'm on the right track baby
I was born this way hey!

Katy Perry Reveals Tour Will Have 'Smell-O-Vision'
'I'm definitely bringing the pizzazz with a lot of bells and whistles,' the singer says about her upcoming California Dreams trek.

She just released the artwork for new single "E.T." and now Katy Perry is dishing on her upcoming California Dreams Tour. In a chat with Rolling Stone, the pop starlet admits that she really has to bring it in order to compete with the high touring standards of fellow stars such as Lady Gaga and Pink.
"I just really want to raise the bar," she says, adding that she's working with Pink's touring director. "Touring is no longer an ordinary thing where you play an instrument in jeans and a T-shirt. It has some pizzazz these days, and I'm definitely bringing the pizzazz with a lot of bells and whistles. The show has a Broadway feel to it. It's got a story line that's going to be very interesting — kind of loosely based on my life, but a cartoon version."
For her tour, Perry's got some tricks up her sleeve in the form of Smell-O-Vision. "It's the first concert that's going to smell good," she reveals. "It's going to smell like you're in cotton candy heaven. It's a fun little nuance. I am a woman of detail, and you will be seeing that — even down to the 15 outfit changes I'm doing in concert."
The singer also is seeking inspiration from artist pals like Will Cotton, who worked with Perry on her "California Gurls" video and Teenage Dream art, and Mark Ryden.
"I have this whole thing in my show that is about candy and cupcakes and meat," Perry explains. "It's both really sweet and shocking, but not in a sexual way."
Perry adds that, unlike her previous tour, she plans to take in the sights around the world while on the road.
Perry has been busy tweeting up a storm about her California Dreams Tour, which kicks off next month. "Cotton Candy angel is working up a treat you'll NEVER forget for GRAMMYS & TOUR!" she wrote earlier this week about what is sure to be one fine-smelling spectacle.
The California Dreams Tour kicks off February 20 in Lisbon, Portugal, and will touch down in the United States in June.

MTV Movies' pop culture radar rarely crosses into the realm of American politics.

Kate Hudson has squashed rumors that she is engaged to beau Matt Bellamy. The Daily Mail reports that the actress, who is about four months pregnant with their child, was on the Graham Norton Show yesterday when she talked about her relationship with the Muse front man.
"No, no, not that I know of! I don't like putting that sort of pressure on it and I don't feel it necessary to get married. I am 31, I already have one child, and have had one divorce, so it is not necessarily the golden ticket. I just want to be happy."
