During Kanye West’s “speech” on Sunday’s MTV Video Music Awards, he concluded by announcing a presidential run in 2020. The White House, currently eyed by silly presidential hopefuls like Donald Trump and Ben Carson—who are leading in some political polls—figured they’d weigh in on West’s plans because, fuck it, why…
Nick Jonas and Justin Bieber, two hopeful heirs to Justin Timberlake’s tear-stained pop throne, each released videos last night for “Levels” and “What Do You Mean?” respectively. Let’s compare, shall we?
On Wednesday, Miley Cyrus stopped by Jimmy Kimmel Live to talk up the MTV Video Music Awards, which she’s hosting on Sunday, by going undercover as an Australian news reporter and asking people their thoughts of her.
