  • Kim Kardashian: Kanye West Once Ordered Chinese Food From Jail [WATCH]

    In a recent episode of the reality series Keeping Up The Kardashians, Kim Kardashian shares a pretty ridiculous story about her husband Kanye West and his trip to jail a few years ago. Back in 2008, the "Bound 2" rapper spent a day in jail after destroying a paparazzo's camera, but when he was given his customary phone call, he apparently used it not to call his lawyer, but to order take-out from a Beverly Hills Chinese restaurant called Mr. Chows. The story ends before we find out if Mr. Chows actually ended up delivering to West's jail cell, but I'm just going to go ahead and assume that yes, they did, because that's a hilarious image to me.

  • Jessie J Sets High Digital Downloads Mark with 'Bang Bang' Thanks to Help from Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj

    The Digital Downloads Top 10 happens to be both opened and closed by a debut track this week. Leading at no. 1 with the second largest single debut of 2014 is Jessie J and "Bang Bang," which features help from Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj. It sold 230,000 downloads, a total only surpassed by Grande's "Problem" for most debut downloads this year. That song, however, fell out of the Top 10 this week. Closing out this week at no. 10 was Maroon 5's "It Was Always You," which sold 95,000 downloads, not at all a bad start.
