Miley Cyrus raunchy performance Sunday night at the MTV VMAs in Brooklyn, N.Y., is still ahot topic. So hot, in fact, that according to the Queen of Twerk herself, her half-naked escapades "had 306,000 tweets per minute," which, as she tweeted, is "more than the blackout or Superbowl! #fact"
Y'all gotta hand it to her there—that girl's booty poppin' sure got people talkin'.

The former Disney star's risqué moves even inspired some memes! One particular image shows the pop star, leaning over with her rear-end pressed up against Robin Thicke, as a (clearly Photoshopped) Billy Ray Cyrus looks down from above at his little girl.
Another doctored shot, excerpted byMashable, swaps Beetlejuice in for Robin, showing Miley pressing herself against the spooky, stripes-wearing character.
There's also an image of Miley poking at Robin's private area with a foam finger and the words "At least it's not about Batman anymore" printed on top.

And one particular meme shows the 20-year-old singer—foam finger on her crotch—with a lyric from her hit single "We Can't Stop" stating, "Remember only God can judge ya" On the opposite side of the image, however, is a sketched drawing of a bearded man who appears to be Jesus, shielding his eyes and raising a distressed hand to his forehead.

Hey, now—judge not lest ye be judged! Besides, y'all, there's no need to get your latex panties in a wad over Miley's twerktastic talents!

After media speculation that he had gone missing for days, Lamar Odom was spotted driving near his home in the San Fernando Valley on Monday. The professional basketball player was driving to a local car wash in his white Mercedes SUV and was out and about for roughly 45 minutes. The rumor mill has been buzzing that he and wife of four years Khloé Kardashian Odomare heading for a split, but Kris Jenner told E! News exclusively last week that any divorce rumors are absolutely false.  "Khloé and Lamar are absolutely not getting divorced," she said. "There's been no talk of divorce."

And despite persistent chatter, friends of the couple aren't buying the cheating stories.
"It just doesn't add up," one friend exclusively told E! News. "Whenever I see them together, they're very happy and in love. "The outgoing 29-year-old has sent out a slew of signals to fans and the media since the reports first surfaced. Just last week she posted a sharp message on her Instagram account that definitely didn't mince any words."Never judge someone without knowing the whole story. You may think you understand, but you don't," the message read.

Then on Sunday, she vented on her Twitter account in a characteristically candid fashion. "Really hard to sit here and listen to people talk s--t about my family!," she wrote. "F--k you and shame on you! I'm too protective for this s--t!"

On Monday, Khloé was spotted leaving a gym wearing her massive wedding ring. She held up her left hand (with the blindingly large sparkler) in an attempt to shield her face from the cameras.

Khloé and Lamar tied the knot on Sept. 27, 2009, at a family friend's beautiful home in Los Angeles.

The two have faced public scrutiny throughout their marriage, but both husband and wife have defended their relationship.

In January, Khloé slammed the speculation, telling E! News that "things are really good with Lamar" but added that her husband was "so sensitive" to all the negative attention surrounding their marriage.

Lady Gaga show will be biggest concert production in Thailand ever

The upcoming Lady Gaga performance in Bangkok will be the biggest concert Thailand has ever seen—bigger than the King of Pop Michael Jackson's 1993 foray, organizers said.

In the days leading up to the mega-star’s Born This Way Ball World Tour May 25 date at Rajamangala Stadium, hundreds of organizers and event staff will be busy setting the stage for the unprecedented event.

“This is the biggest concert we’ve ever put together, even bigger than Michael Jackson’s concert in 1993,” said Neil Thompson, deputy managing director of BEC-TERO Entertainment, which is organizing the event.

“It’s taking three [Boeing] 747s and 20 sea containers to bring in all the production, staging, lighting, sound and video equipment,” he said, adding that on the tour the 150 or so touring party will consume 3,500lbs of chicken, 1,200 lbs of fish, 700lbs of pasta and 2,100 heads of romaine lettuce.

“The band will use over 5,000 guitar strings, more than 2,500 towels on stage. Dancers will use 50 pairs of shoes and go through 200 pairs of fishnet stockings; 12,000 minutes will be spent on sound checks and the phrase ‘copy’ will be uttered over 2,312 times over our show’s walkie-talkie system every show day,” Thompson added.

The sultry scion of pop alone has 15 costume changes among the 40 wardrobe cases in tow. Those worried by the prospect of overheating need not worry: “We will use over 300 feet of air hose under the stage. We have enough power for the whole show and the consumption of electricity will reach 1125kVA, 3000 amps, 864614.4 watts,” Thompson said.

Dozens of buses will be on hand to shuttle the over 50,000 fans around stadium grounds and there will be an estimated 630 police officers overseeing the event, The Bangkok Post reported. Only a few tickets remain for the event, priced between 4,500 and 7,000 baht.
