Forget all the awards she won at the Billboard Music Awards last night -- the trophy for Best Reaction to Justin Bieber Trying to Kiss Selena Gomez goes to Taylor Swift! That's the award that matters, as far as we're concerned.
A group of teens had a legendary prom night, for a rather unusual reason. They didn't set a new high school keg stand record -- they stopped on the way to the dance to rescue some people who were in a car accident.
This kid's got big brass ones. Or maybe he was just fed up. Actually, we figure it probably requires a combination of both to pull off a stunt like this.
If you're not one of Russell Crowe's 825,000 followers on Twitter, maybe you should be. That way you can see a real-time play-by-play of how this whole UFO spotted outside of his office thing plays out.
Peter Bailey, 27, was taking his dog for her evening walk along the beach in Tenby, Wales, when he came across this unusual sight. He snapped some pictures of it, because he had no idea what it is, and now it has earned the name The Beast of Tenby.
Suddenly we feel very lucky to have been born in the '80s. Back then, our biggest naming danger was being called Brandi or Lacey. One mom-to-be is letting the internet name her child, so who knows what it will be called.
Left on her own without legal representation, this girl (who was awaiting arraignment for a first arrest) was in over her head. It probably also didn't help that she didn't get the sobering reality of being physically present in court to knock some sense into her, since this is a video arraignment taking place from jail, where she is nervous and surrounded by other inmates. Oh, and it doesn't help that this judge is clearly some kind of jerk.
Here you go. Watch this Dodge Ram Super Bowl 2013 commercial narrated by Paul Harvey and cry. Good ol' Paul Harvey -- he wasn't afraid to really go for the heart strings.
If you can get past the initial nose picking in this video, you're in for a pretty good time. We don't think that repeatedly karate chopping the back of someone's hand is necessarily the best way to disarm a person with a knife, but it's funny because it's a baby who is dressed up like a mugger.
If you were wondering what it takes to beat 'Gangnam Style' for the best viral video of 2012, it's pretty obvious the answer is lots of booze.
'Bohemian Rhapsody -- Under Arrest' managed to come out on top in this year's contest, ahead of such internet faves as 'Call Me Maybe' and 'Overly Attached Girlfriend,' for the title of best viral video of 2012. (He beat 'Gangnam Style' by 27%.) Maybe that's because Robert Wilkinson, the man behind the video, has an awesome singing voice.
It's Tuesday, so you probably need a good cry. Here, watch this video. It's children from Sandy Hook Elementary performing 'Somewhere Over the Rainbow' on 'Good Morning America.' The kids recorded the song, with folk musician Ingrid Michaelson, at the home of former Talking Heads members Tina Weymouth and Christ Frantz.
Holy cow, it's a dog that can drive! Sort of. Granted, we've seen dogs driving actual cars before, but this one is an enormous dog in a tiny Power Wheels. Plus he has no idea how to steer. The technical skill may not be as impressive as those w
