GAGA DOMINATED THE VMA's...
DONOVAN MCNABB and the Washington Redskins squeaking past TONY ROMO and the Dallas Cowboys was a Sunday night surprise. LADY GAGA dominating the "MTV Video Music Awards", not so much.
Gaga won EIGHT awards, including Video of the Year for "Bad Romance".
That was the second-biggest haul in VMA history. (Peter Gabriel won 10 awards for "Sledgehammer" in 1987.)
Eminem had the second-best haul of the night, with TWO awards. (He wasn't there to accept. After opening the show with RIHANNA, he bolted for a flight to New York, where he's performed with Jay-Z Monday night.)
Either Lady Gaga is a good actress or she's totally oblivious as to how far up her butt the media is...because she looked like she was either going to cry or hyperventilate every time she won.
That did yield one funny moment, though, when she accepted the Video of the Year trophy from CHER...who was wearing a revealing outfit similar to the one from that old video of hers, "Turn Back Time".
Gaga was wearing approximately her 45th outfit of the night. This one included RAW MEAT. Gaga handed Cher her purse so she could hold the award. And she said, "I never thought I'd be asking Cher to hold my meat purse."
She also revealed that the title of her next album is "Born This Way"...and she sang a few lines from the title track.
Host CHELSEA HANDLER set the tone for the evening by hitting the stage in a mock-Lady Gaga outfit that included a small HOUSE over her head.
The show opened with an obviously pre-recorded video of Chelsea backstage, being confronted by LINDSAY LOHAN, who told her,"Do you think anyone wants to work with a drunk? Take it from me, they don't!"
The other big story of the night, obviously, was TAYLOR SWIFT and KANYE WEST both making their big VMA return.
Taylor sang a new song called "Innocent", which included such lyrics as, "I guess you really did it this time...Lost your balance on a tightrope / Lost your mind trying to get it back...
"...Every one of us has messed up too...32 and still growing up now."
Kanye closed the show with a new track called "Runaway"...and his lyrics included a lot of cursing. Then this line..."You've been putting up with my (crap) for way too long."
And the chorus included, "Let's have a toast for the (D-bags) / Let's have a toast for the (A-holes) / Let's have a toast for the scumbags."
The crowd even CHANTED "Kanye" when he was done.

AND THE VMA FALLOUT....
A KANYE WEST / TAYLOR SWIFT duet at Sunday night's "MTV Video Music Awards" would've been the perfect way to bury the hatchet from last year's show, where Kanye infamously stormed the stage and interrupted Taylor's moment.
Obviously, that didn't happen. Instead, they both performed new songs, separately...that were clearly inspired by last year's fiasco. But according to new reports, MTV was trying to set up a duet...and Taylor was the reason it didn't happen.
E! Online says that Kanye was onboard...and the plan was for them to close out the show together. There's no word on what they would've performed.
Supposedly, producers were still trying to convince Taylor to join Kanye throughout the actual ceremony...but to no avail.
Meanwhile, "Us" magazine is reporting that Kanye and Taylor DID make peace backstage...in a private meeting in Taylor's dressing room.
A so-called "source" says, "Kanye got word she was going to do the song about him and wanted to talk it out. Taylor felt bad. They talked and everything is good between them now. But they promised to keep what they spoke about between them."
VMA GETS HUGE RATINGS...
An estimated 11.4 million people watched the "MTV Video Music Awards" on Sunday night. That made it the most-watched MTV show...overall...since the 2002 "VMAs".
WORST SONGS....EVER!
AOL Radio has put out a list of the 100 Worst Songs Ever...and in a shocking development, the #1 worst song was NOT "Who Let the Dogs Out?" by BAHA MEN.

NORTH CAROLIIIIINA, COME ON AND RAISE UP, TAKE YA GUN OUT...
Posted this on facebook FIRST over the weekend...a reason you need to follow me on FB!

PETEY PABLO was arrested on Saturday, trying to sneak a gun through security at an airport in North Carolina.
Petey was charged with carrying a concealed weapon, possession of a firearm by a felon and possession of a stolen firearm. He posted $50,000 bail, and was released.
POOF!
INSTANT JUSTICE has been served!
Last week, in Tacoma, Washington, a man and woman were trying to siphon gas out of a Salvation Army van. They haven't been named...all we know is that the woman is 20 years old.
Anyway, they should've known that the universe doesn't take kindly to people stealing from the Salvation Army...and karma decided to give the two some swift, decisive retribution.
According to an eyewitness, as they sucked gasoline out of the van's tank, somehow, a FIRE erupted. Police still don't know what caused the fire.
The man caught on fire. The woman caught on fire. The van also caught on fire.
The woman ran toward the witness, who told her to STOP, DROP and ROLL. For some reason she refused. So the witness found a garden hose and doused her until the fire went out.
Meanwhile, the male thief managed to put out his own flames and run away. The woman was taken to the hospital, and she's looking at charges for the gas theft and setting the van on fire. The police are still looking for the man.
MILEY IS NO LONGER SINGLE???
If you haven't figured it out yet...I love incriminating photos of Miley Cyrus. Basically cause I can't stand her punk ass. Just in case you were confused as to the relationship status of Miss Cyrus and LIAM HEMSWORTH..."Us Weekly" got a picture of them making out in her Mercedes in Los Angeles yesterday morning. That of course doesn't mean they're back together, but certainly something is going on!
Miley was also pulled over in North Hollywood Monday afternoon for talking on her cell phone while driving.
Oh yeah...
Soooo BUSTED
Oh btw...need braces? :)
TWEET THIS...
JOHN MAYER is the latest celebrity to set the world on its ear by abandoning Twitter.
He actually shut it down Sunday, after Tweeting, "What does this button do?"
His rep issued the following statement..."With the Battle Studies Tour now at a close and a return to the studio planned, John has discontinued his Twitter account. However, he continues to communicate with his fans via his blog as he always has."
John had well over 3 MILLION Twitter followers.
DID SOMEBODY SAY...McDONALD'S?
I guess it's weirdly comforting to know that you'd never have to drive more than two hours to get yourself a Double Quarter Pounder With Cheese, a large fries and, if the season's right, a Shamrock Shake or a McRib.
According to the latest numbers by the website DataPointed.net, in the continental U.S., you are never more than 115 miles away from a McDonald's.
That's actually FURTHER than it used to be. A McDonald's in northeastern California recently closed down, making it just a little harder for someone in northwest Nevada, near the Sheldon National Antelope Refuge, to get to one.
Before that restaurant closed, no American was ever more than 108 miles from a McDonald's. Now, when you're in northwestern Nevada, you'll have to drive an extra seven miles to get to one.
GETCHA COOL WHIP OUT...
Let's hear it for the RANDY COUGARS of the world who aren't afraid to show their bodies off ANYWHERE. I love you ladies! Never, ever change!
Specifically, I'm talking about 37-year-old Katherine Margaret Watson of Moorhead, Minnesota. (Yes, that's actually where she's from.) Around 5:45 P.M. on Sunday, she walked into a local Walgreens wearing the following things:
A thong.
Pasties.
A small green towel.
And WHIPPED CREAM.
Someone called the police(bastige!), and when they got there, Katherine told them she was trying to buy shaving cream. (Perhaps to finish her outfit for a formal occasion?)
She told them she was flaunting herself to try to catch people's attention, to get them to open their minds and not to conform to society. But she also admitted that her choices were, "a little over the top."
Katherine was cited for indecent exposure.
TRAGICALLY, somehow in this age of ever-present camera phones, no one got a picture of Katherine in the act.
DOWN TO GET DOWN???
I had no idea the people of Texas were so down to get down!
"Men's Health" just released a list of 100 American cities ranked by how RANDY the people are...and Texas has SEVEN of the top 15.
The cities are ranked on factors like condom sales, birth rates, love toy sales, and STD rates. Basically, all the signs that people in a city are getting-it-on nonstop.
Austin, Texas, was ranked by "Men's Health" as America's number one, "hotbed of sex." Dallas is number two.
Other Texas cities in the top 15 are Arlington at 7th, Houston at 10th, Lubbock at 11th, Fort Worth at 12th, and San Antonio at 15th.
Portland, Maine, came in dead last...of the 100 largest cities in the U.S., it's got the least randy people you can find. Burlington, Vermont, came in second-to-last.
#1.) Austin, TX . . . #2.) Dallas, TX . . . #3.) Columbus, OH . . . #4.) Durham, NC . . . #5.) Denver, CO . . .
#6.) Indianapolis, IN . . . #7.) Arlington, TX . . . #8.) Oklahoma City, OK . . . #9.) Bakersfield, CA . . . #10.) Houston, TX . . .
Columbus at #3? I KNEW there were reasons I've always wanted to be in the 'bus!
Then again, on the flipside, Cleveland is at #80.
Alright....be good. Or don't.
