Remember Rihanna’s riveting “We Found Love” video with the Chris Brown-lookalike, car fight scene, drug binges and MTV VMAs Video of the Year award? It’s sooooo boring compared to MIley Cyrus’ “We Can’t Stop” video that premiered Wednesday.

Miley and friends literally let loose in the 3-minute house party clip that would be any parent’s worst nightmare.

See our breakdown of the moments:

1) House Arrest - When the video opens, a faceless Miley is shown using an over-sized pair of fuchsia scissors to cut off a-house arrest ankle bracelet. The wild party that ensues helps us deduce while her character was put under restriction in the first place. Too bad the cops don’t show up to shut this down.

2) Gangsta Grillz – Who would dare show up to a crunk fest without their gold fronts? Surely not Miley. As she gets dressed, she does make a comforting revelation. Her teeth accessories are removable, unlike Kanye West’s diamond-encrusted lower teeth.

3) Smoking Hot – I know there’s a symbolic

In a court petition filed by King Kevi, he accuses Bieber and his videographer friend Alfredo Flores of harassing him. "Justin Bieber and his camp released my number out to over 40,000,000 people and [told] people to call it," he wrote in the filing.

Back in February, Jamie Foxx professed his love for Channing Tatum’s name on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” by performing “(I Wanna) Channing All Over Your Tatum” on piano. Ever since, we’ve been waiting for someone to capitalize on the track.

On June 18, Jimmy Kimmel delivered by debuting the tune’s official music video featuring himself, Tatum, Foxx, Miley Cyrus, Matt Damon, Olivia Munn and “Precious” star Gabourey Sidibe.

In case you’re wondering what “Channing all over your Tatum” means, the actor explains it in a verse, rapping:

In the album's opening song, "On Sight," 'Ye raps, "A monster about to come alive again / Soon as I pull up and park the Benz / We get this b--ch shaking like Parkinson's."

That lyric would make any person with common decency cringe a bit, but the folks at the American Parkinson Disease Association are particularly disturbed by it. "We find these lyrics distasteful and the product of obvious ignorance," Kathryn Whitford, VP of the organization, told TMZ.

The 20-year-old singer, who starred alongside the Jonas Brothers in the 2008 Disney Channel movie Rock Camp, has amassed a loyal fan following, perhaps in part because she's so outspoken and real.

At the B96 Pepsi Summer Bash in Chicago on Saturday, Lovato boldly told her fans that she went into a treatment center in their neighborhood to deal with her issues, and that doing so saved her life.

Whatever Rihanna’s paying for private security at her home in Pacific Palisades area of Los Angeles, it appears that she’s getting her money's worth.

On June 18 at around 10 p.m., her security detained a 26-year-old man who broke into the singer's property and was crawling around her roof.

Rihanna's security team called the LAPD, who arrested the man, Robert Melanson, for trespassing. While Melanson insisted he had no idea he had no idea he had landed on Rihanna's roof, police found a Google map of the area on his phone. His bail was set at $2,882, according to TMZ; and the Los Angeles Times reported that Melanson was still in custody Tuesday afternoon.

Cher will drop her new record “Closer to the Truth” later this year on Sept. 24, but unfortunately it won’t include her duet with Lady Gaga.

“I did a song with Gaga and I think it's brilliant and I thought her performance was great but she doesn't like it,” the 67-year-old artist told Mark Steines during “Cher's Livestream Backstage At ‘The Voice’” interview. “So, I’ll play it for friends."

Other artists who worked on “Closer to the Truth” include the Scissor Sisters’ Jake Shears (he appears on the track “Take It Like A Man”) and Pink, who wrote the tune “Lie To Me,” which was described as “a really sad song.”

Even though we won’t hear Mother Monster on Cher’s new record, there is still plenty to get excited about, as it sounds like the icon experimented and was a risk-taker this time around on her latest offering.

I found it odd and awkward when, at the beginning of "So You Think You Can Dance's" top 20 reveal episode this Tuesday, Nigel Lythgoe stated that he and his fellow judges had "invested in dancers we're not sure about." Um, what's not to be sure about? For the most part, this season's semifinalists are an amazing bunch, as their first live onstage performances readily proved.
