John Mayer had a little break down last night on stage. He said a little choked up: "I quit the media game. I'm out. I'm done. I just want to play my guitar."

Hasn't he been saying this a lot lately? But this time it's over an interview he did with Playboy where he used the n-word. Obviously, no one was happy about that.

For the first time in nearly thirty years, MTV has updated the look of its logo.  Notice anything different about it?

We see the faces from Jersey Shore, The Buried Life, and My Life as Liz, but something is missing? Oh, right? There's no music anymore!

Ke$ha has been on the top of the singles chart with her song "TiK ToK," but now she dreamed a little dream and knocked out the reigning album champ, a one Susan Boyle.

We didn't think we would see the day! Ke$ha sold 152,000 albums and for the first time in six weeks, Boyle in in the number two spot on the Billboard chart.

What's Tom Hanks' favorite song of the year? He was asked just that at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 25th Anniversary show yesterday.

Yup, it's Beyonce's "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)," which seems like a sort of unlikely choice, but maybe Forrest, Forrest Gump is hipper than we thought. We do forget that he taught Elvis how to dance.

This morning Leighton Meester debuted her new song on Ryan Seacrest's radio show.

We loved her on the Cobra Starship song, and so we were psyched to hear her go off on her own, even though we hate, hate celebrity albums. (But we love Gossip Girl more than we hate actressingers!)

If Susan Boyle isn't the woman of the year we don't know who is.

Leona Lewis is set to release the first single off her new album, Echo.

The single is called Happy and will be released on September 15th on iTunes, and the album will hit stores on November 17th.

Hopefully Happy will be the opposite of her last single, Bleeding Love, which sounded pretty but made us want to literally bleed to death.

Jason Mraz has made history this week--his song, "I'm Yours," is now the longest running song on the Billboard Top #100 singles chart in history. It's been going strong at 71 weeks (and counting).

F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
