Meme Alert: Tumblr Mocks Justin Bieber’s VMAs Thank-You Speech
Justin Bieber certainly stood out at Sunday’s VMAs, but probably not in the ways he meant to: He made immature jokes about his pet snake Johnson, had an awkward kiss with girlfriend Selena Gomez, and then was blank-faced for the entire show. Oh, except for when he won, and gave a strange thank-you speech: I just wanna say thank you so much not only to God but to Jesus. More »

How To Spot A Fake Apology, Courtesy of Kanye West
We’ve all had our terrible TMI moments in relationships before: that time we blew up at our boyfriend in public for ordering us the wrong latte, or when your BFF borrowed your favorite dress to wear to a party and you tried to rip it off her. (Um, we all did that once, okay?) Most of us have the good sense after these humiliating blow-outs to apologize – hopefully in front of a large group of people – and get on with our lives.
But then there are those people in your life whose anger-management issues always get in the way of a supposedly sincere apology. Abusive relationships, back-stabbing siblings, even a bestie who promises better behavior but never comes through: These people are the Kanye Wests to your Taylor Swift, and they’ll never forgive a perceived slight, no matter how many crocodile tears they shed. Here’s how to sniff out the insincerity from a Kanye wannabe, using our awesome apology-translator and ample use of Vulture’s Evolution of an Apology feature. If you find yourself listening to anything resembling the statements below, do yourself a solid and cut these haters out of your life. More »

Meet Kanye’s New Style Muse: 19-Year-Old Cassius Clay
It may not seem like Kanye West‘s new all red look has many patrician hipster overtones, but that might be changing over the next few weeks and months. Kanye is now taking style advice from a 19-year-old Yale student with a penchant for crested wingtips and Harry Potter glasses.
IvyGate broke the news on Cassius Clay‘s (yes, that’s his real name) involvement with Kanye earlier in September, but considering how inspired Kanye’s choices have been lately, it seems time we paid some attention. More »
Video Gallery: The Best Of Awesome Ballerinas
Kanye West has been killing it on the dancer front lately. In his VMAs performance of “Runaway,” the singer offered both a toast for the douchebags and a trio of ballerinas. Then, on SNL, Mr. West brought the petite pretties back. Kanye’s performances couldn’t keep us from thinking about Black Swan, the Darren Aronofsky directed thriller about a pair of ballet dancers. What’s with all the ballerina action lately? We’re not sure, but we aren’t complaining. Check out our video gallery of some of the most awesome ballerinas ever. More »
Lady Gaga’s meat dress to become beef jerky – Well, this certainly gives new meaning to the phrase “Snap into a a Slim Jim.” According to designer Franc Fernandez, Gaga’s steaky VMAs dress is about to undergo a drying-up process that will turn the garment into a slab of jerky. (via People)

VMA Drama: Sammi Won’t Talk to Us!
