Nicki Minaj and Cee Lo Green

The Billboard Music Awards are going to be a few shades of pink and green. Nicki Minaj and Cee Lo Green have been tapped to perform at the revived ceremony, airing live from Las Vegas on May 22 on ABC.

The "Super Bass" rapper is nominated for four awards this year including Top New Artist, Top Rap Artist, Top Rap Album, and Top R&B Song for Trey Songz' "Bottoms Up." Although not a nominee, the "F**k You" singer will take the stage at the MGM Grand to perform one of his Lady Killer cuts.

Additional performers include Rihanna, Jennifer Lopez, Black Eyed Peas, and Pitbull. Comedian Ken Jeong will host the event, which marks its return for the first time in five years.

Nicki Minaj

Nicki Minaj packed her bags and headed up north for the final dates on the "I Am Still Music" tour. The rap diva looked mighty serious, dressed down in a black wig, cropped leather jacket, and tight gray pants, as she arrived in Canada with her entourage in tow, pushing carts of Louis Vuitton luggage. Lil Wayne and Nicki's outing wraps tomorrow at Calgary's Scotiabank Saddledome before she heads out on the road with Britney Spears in June.

Chris Brown
is denying reports that he's engaged to his model girlfriend despite an internet rumor that surfaced today.

As previously reported Brown's been dating Karrueche "Kae" Tran and even expressed his love for her through artwork posted to his Twitter account.

Ironically he used that same Twitter account Thursday to deny rumors that he and the young beauty were set to wed.

Although they're not getting married any time soon, check out Chris and Kae below.

Do you think they should eventually tie the knot?



 
 
 
 

POSTED: New Boyz Lose Toothpaste, Gain Strength

Last time we checked in with MTV Posted duo New Boyz, they were rolling around on scooters and discussing the intricacies of their hit song "Backseat." This time, we got the guys proving their masculinity and running out of hotels with less-than-optimal hygiene.

In the first video, Legacy and Ben J engage in a fierce battle of strength. Legacy goes the easy route, cranking out numerous chin-ups before ceding to his partner. We're giving the win to Ben J, though, for one-upping his partner and doing the more difficult pull-ups. Either way, there is much mocking of strength all around.

The next video proves that having monstrous hit songs and a worldwide tour won't prevent the travails of travel. Check the video below for a snapshot of what is presumably the Boyz' daily routine: wake up, pack, check out of hotel, hop in a van and head off to the next city. Here, we catch the guys in Chicago, though it really could be Anycity, U.S.A.

We also catch Legacy in mid-crisis mode. What do you do if you're late for checkout and run out of toothpaste before brushing your teeth? If you're Legacy, you apparently just gurgle with tap water. Luckily, one of the group's entourage has the next best alternative: gum. We'll give Legacy's song a little credit, though. With enough chewing gum, a girl will never tell the difference between that and an actual teeth-brushing.

Caught in the middle, Amber acts oblivious to any conflict between Wiz and Kanye.

 

Breaking her silence on the rumored beef between her current flame Wiz Khalifa and ex-boyfriend Kanye West, Amber Rose says "Was there a confrontation at Coachella?" Striking down any possible rumor, Amber says "Rumors are crazy and people want things to happen and make it their real life and I guess that's all I can really say about that." Not one to hold his feeling in, do you think Kanye will reveal his side of the story?

Justin Bieber And Chris Brown Together On Stage Cause Serious Eardrum Damage

We already knew Justin Bieber could sing. We knew he could dance. Hell, the dude has his own swagger coach! But when he introduced us to his rap alter ego "Shawty Mane," we kinda thought he was kidding. But Turns out he wasn't.

The heartthrob spit some rhymes while on stage with Chris Brown in Sydney, Australia, and it kind of blew our minds. Busta Rhymes did it first on Brown's track, "Look At Me Now," and then Karmin made it an online sensation because duhhhh. But Biebs seriously goes a-mile-a-minute, giving both Busta and the Micro Machines guy (remember him?) a run for their money.

Naturally, the crowd of mostly girls went absolutely berserk, and not just because Justin brought his usual unrelenting energy to the stage, but because Chris Brown was right next to him. Seriously ladies, turn it down a notch. We weren't even there and our ears are still ringing.

The O Music Awards aren't just about pimping out cool videos in HTML 5 or whatever and breathlessly watching Chiddy Bang rap until he potentially passes out (though those things are mega important too). It's about honoring some of the biggest, most knowledgeable, and most devoted music fans online. The ones who live in fan forums, sharing photos and facts, turning online friends into IRL ones, and worshiping at the altar of the artists recognized by the O Music Award Fan Forum nominees: Animal Collective, Britney Spears, Justin Bieber, Kanye West, Michael Jackson and Phish.

Beliebers, Brit Stans, Phish Heads, and Animaniacs (okay, so Animal Collective Fans probably don't call themselves that) all rallied around their favorite artist and fan forum, but only one artist and fan forum rallied the hardest. That artist is Michael Jackson, and the fan forum that won the O Music Award is the MJJacksonCommunity.com.

Congratulations to the biggest, most devoted music fan forum on the Internet. Michael may be gone, but you're keeping his spirit -- and his music -- alive.

+ Watch the MJJacksonCommunity accept the O Music Award for Best Fan Forum below, watch the O Music Awards live on Thursday, April 28, at 11 p.m. ET/8 p.m. PT, and stay tuned for live updates and behind-the-scenes access on Buzzworthy, on Twitter at @MTVBuzzworthy, and at Omusicawards.tumblr.com.

warren g Affirm X

In disturbing news we didn't want to know, Warren G, who's been promoting the erectile dysfunction drug called Affirm X in some pretty bizarre commercials, wants the WORLD to know that he is only a spokesman for the pills but doesn't actually suffer from erectile dysfunction, as he told TMZ, "A lot of people have that problem … but I don't have it!…The commercials are funny and I meant for it to be funny. This is not something that dictates who I am."

So don't you fear, ladies, Warren G's stuff works well and he's just waiting for alllllll of you millions of eager groupies to test out if he's telling the truth. Nope, we're not creeped out or mildly disgusted in the least.

G also goes on to explain how he did actually try out the pills and they worked for him. Get a mental image yet?
