Everyone, including Michelle Obama, Lady Gaga, and Stevie Wonder is paying tribute to Beyonce‘s 15 year career at the Billboard awards. Following the awards show, the 29 year old singer will be humanely euthanized, as putting female pop stars down before they reach 30 is generally thought of as the least cruel way the entertainment industry deals with women advancing more than 10 years beyond teenagerhood.

And Kevin Spacey is Keyser Soze. And Harry is forced to leave The Hendersons and return to the forest, from whence he came.) [HuffPo]
