On the rapper's new album, 'Student of the Game,' he brings back the lost art form of the hip-hop skit, giving Disick the opportunity to come along for the ride. Face it, emcees don't make 'em like they used to -- remember the Chinese restaurant skit from the Fugees' 'The Score'?

Box confirmed that I was almost a scam victim. Thanks, internet!

Last year, Beyonce wore such a tight dress that she had to be carried up the Met Ball steps. This year, she stumbled -- figuratively, anyway -- in an unflattering Givenchy gown with gold embroidery, a leather-like top, a major slit, a casual belt and long, over-the-elbow gloves.
In light of the massive drama this season between 'American Idol' judges Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj, the multi-octave diva is pretty much guaranteed to walk out -- and the producers of the now-struggling Fox juggernaut are eyeing some unbelievably huge names to fill in the panel.
