Shawn Mendes And James Corden's Epic Music Battle Will Leave You In Stitches







Thanks to his wonderful “Carpool Karaoke” segments, we know James Corden not only loves to sing, but also has a surprisingly good voice. So who better to compete in a riff-off with Corden than Canadian teen crooner Shawn Mendes?



The late-night host had Mendes on his show Wednesday night for an epic musical battle which Corden liked to call “Better Then/Better Now.” The whole point was for each of the guys to prove which era had better music ― Mendes was in favor of the present, while Corden, naturally, was all about the '90s (the same decade Mendes was born).  



With a little help from a cappella group The Filharmonic, Mendes and Corden broke into songs like Kriss Kross' “Jump,” The Spice Girls' “Wannabe” and Sia's “Cheap Thrills,” but not before they got a little hyped up. 



“I should warn you,” Corden said, “I've got hits from before you were born.”



“You're older than me, we get it,” replied Mendes. 



The best part, though, came when the duo decided to put their differences aside and pay tribute to both eras with a mashup of TLC's “No Scrubs” and Mendes' own hit “Stitches.”

Katy Perry Inspires Madonna To Take A Nude Selfie In Support Of Hillary



Apparently, paddleboarding enthusiast Katy Perry's attempts to encourage voter registration in a Funny or Die parody video have been successful. 



Following Perry's declaration that it's better to vote naked than not vote at all, Madonna shared a selfie of her own early Wednesday morning wearing nothing but several gold necklaces and her (unfortunately) signature grills. 



You can take the girl out of ... wait, never mind. 



“Voting naked with Katy Perry!! Vote for Hillary. She's the Best we got!” Madonna captioned the Instagram photo, naming it “Voting series #1.”



If a nude Madonna selfie isn't reason enough to get out and vote, then it's probably time we take a cold, hard look at our democratic process.





We await the next photo in her series with bated breath.



Lately, the queen of pop has been spreading her love for Clinton, literally bashing the former secretary of state's opponent, Donald Trump, on social media.



“Living For Hillary Yes I vote for intelligence,” Madonna wrote beneath a photoshopped image of herself straddling Clinton at the 2015 Brit Awards. She continued: “I vote for equal rights for women and all minorities. ... Women Run the World now they have to get out and start supporting one another.”







Meanwhile, her 11-year-old son has decapitated a Trump piƱata on Instagram.

Kim Kardashian Harassed In Paris By Same Idiot Who Attacked Gigi Hadid







The same idiot who attacked supermodel Gigi Hadid last week by literally grabbing her from behind and lifting her up off the street has struck again.



On Wednesday, Vitalii Sediuk, who apparently thinks he's being funny or clever or something, snuck up on Kim Kardashian in Paris and planted a kiss on her famous behind.



He managed to make it past security to pull his stupid little prank, but it wasn't long before the reality star's team tackled him to the ground. Kardashian kept calm and continued walking. The moment was caught on video and shared Wednesday by TMZ.







Now, we know what you might be thinking: Kim, whose butt has become as famous as the woman herself, would appreciate someone loving her signature asset enough to kiss it. But let's be real here and think about just how creepy Sediuk's actions really were. Imagine if you were walking down the street, minding your business and some stranger came up behind you and planted one on your left butt cheek. Gross. 



What's worse, this isn't even the first time Sediuk has targeted the 35-year-old. In 2014, the “internet prankster” tackled Kardashian in Paris and tried to pull her to the ground. (Ugh, go home.) The same year, he also attacked Brad Pitt on a red carpet by burying is face in the actor's crotch. The incident led to Sediuk being sentenced to three years of probation and banned from being within 500 feet of all award shows, entertainment events and red carpets. Clearly that hasn't stopped him. 



Considering Sediuk responded to the Hadid incident by calling it a “protest” against the fashion industry for putting “well-connected cute girls from Instagram” on the runway instead of “true talents,” our guess is he'll provide a similarly bogus excuse about Kardashian and her rise to fame. And that's if he even responds this time.



He's just lucky he didn't get another elbow to the face. We stand by our comment that Hadid should have hit him harder



Boy, bye.

Naked Mike Rowe Pulls Shotgun On Drone Hovering Over His House



Don't go peeping on Mike Rowe with a drone.



The TV personality says he almost blasted an intrusive quadcopter out of the sky, after he spotted it hovering over his San Francisco home while he was in his birthday suit last Tuesday.



The former “Dirty Jobs” host was sleeping nude in his bedroom when the sound of what he thought was a gigantic bumble bee woke him up, he wrote on Facebook.



Only it wasn't an insect that roused him from his slumberHe opened the drapes and was shocked to see a drone buzzing in the air just feet away from his window - with its camera pointed straight at him.









Rowe, 54, grabbed his 12-gauge shotgun from under his bed and ran down to his deck, still in the buff.



“I pumped a shell into the chamber, enjoying the 'crunch-crunch' sound that makes shotguns worth owning,” he said. “I had a clear shot - nothing but blue sky above - and more than enough umbrage to justify the destruction I was about to unleash.”



But then, when the former opera singer was just milliseconds away from pulling the trigger, he says he froze. It wasn't a fear of being arrested that stopped him. Instead, it was the realization that the footage could end up on the local news.



The drone flew off, and Rowe had to satisfy himself with just snapping a photograph of the machine on his cell phone.



He has no idea who was flying the drone, and now fears it will be leaked online.



“I sincerely hope not, but I know it's out there, and there isn't much I can do about it but make sure ― if the unthinkable occurs ― that you can all say you heard it here first,” he added.
