August 29, 2011 Animated GIFs are awesome. If you don't know what they are, go here. If you want the short description of what an animated GIF is, allow me to use one word. AWESOME. With that said, I have compiled the best animated GIFs from the MTV Tumblr page.
Beyonce Knowles announced that she’s expecting her first child with husband Jay-Z on the black carpet of the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards Sunday night. Arriving in a flowy, Grecian-inspired orange frock, Knowles pulled back the material and showed off her sizable bump to the delight of the crowd.
The stars turned out on the red carpet — or should we say black carpet? — for the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards at the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles. Celebs included Justin Bieber, who rocked a pair of scholarly specs, and Jessie J, who rocked a pair of bedazzled crutches and a cast (the singer sprained her foot at a recent live show).
Let's talk BIG Money!! Celebirty Money!! Gisele Bundchen and hubby Tom Brady are the world’s best-paid celebrity couple, according to Forbes. Gisele raked in $45 million last year, while Tom earned $31 million, making their combined annual earnings $76 million.
Congratulations to rapper Eminem for being crowned "King Of Hip Hop" by Rolling Stone Magazine. Eminem beat out other rappers like Jay-Z and Snoop Dog for this prestigious title.

Kanye West & Jay-Z's, Watched The Throne smashed the iTunes record after almost 290,000 downloads were purchased last week. The release went on sale exclusively through iTunes from August 8-11.
Jay-Z has staked a claim to hip-hop royalty for over a decade — and while his recent recording and touring partner, Kanye West, hasn’t been at the game for quite as long, he’s got his own piece of the crown.
But according to Jay-Z, he and West weren’t thinking of their status as rap’s reigning MC and producer when they titled their album ‘Watch the Throne.’
The powerhouse combination of Jay-Z and Kanye West is preparing for 'Watch The Throne' tour, and with their release of their new tracks, are planning on taking over the throne again. With a creative sample of Otis Redding's 'Try A Little Tenderness' and the creative direction of Spike Jonez, you can now check out the full video.
What’s the recipe for Jay-Z andKanye West‘s new music video for ‘Otis?’ Two parts successful MCs, one part Hollywood’s most inventive director (Spike Jonze), a dash of comedy’s hottest act (Aziz Ansari) and, of course, the leadoff single from the most highly anticipated hip-hop album of the year.
When it comes to making money in the hip-hop game, everybody is staring up at Jay-Z’s throne.
The 41-year-old rapper and mogul took in $37 million over the past year, making him the highest-earning hip-hop star. The $37 million includes record sales, a 10-year, $150 million deal with Live Nation and part ownership of the New Jersey Nets, among other investments.
