David Bowie is causing quite the ruckus now that he’s back in the music scene.

His new video for The Next Day, starring Gary Oldman and Marion Cotillard, violently tackles both religion and devil worship, and it’s bound to catch people’s — and the Vatican’s — attention!

Including over-sexed clergymen, self-flagellation, Marion’s sudden development of stigmata, and a bit of nudity, The Next Day is definitely graphic and not for the faint of heart. You’ve been warned. We can hear the criticism pouring in already!

Ch-ch-check out the video and see for yourselves if you so dare …AFTER THE JUMP!!!

Bill Maher might have told the most expensive joke of all time!

The controversial comedian poked fun at Donald Trump and said he would donate $5 million to the charity of his choice if he could prove he wasn't birthed by orangutans.

Hmmm. Why does this sound kind of familiar???

Well the millionaire mogul whipped out his birth certificate to prove that he is indeed human, but when Bill didn't cough up the dough, he did what he always does in these situations: he sued him!

Seriously. We can't make this stuff up!!

It looks like the comedian is safe, as Trump has dropped the $5 million lawsuit, but according to his special counsel Michael Cohen, it could eventually pop back up!

Bill has made a career out of making controversial jokes, but this time it looks like his monkey business could put a dent in his wallet!

For the past couple of weeks it feels like it's been Matt Lauer vs. The World. But apparently there's at least one person out there willing to stick up for him!

The Today show's executive producer Don Nash rushed to the aid of the highly scrutinized anchor and said the show would suffer without him.

Matt has been under heavy fire recently for multiple incidents, including a controversial interview that featured sound bytes from Jerry Sandusky, and some are even putting the blame on him for the Today show's drop in ratings.

But Don is hoping to clear the air and says he has no plan on getting rid of Matt. In fact, he says everybody LOVES him:

Ah, the woes of a draft dodger!

Israeli Defense Forces is up in arms over the Israeli Foreign Ministry's new PR campaign featuring Bar Refaeli .

Women in the country are supposed to serve the military for two years when they turn 18, and men serve three, but Bar found a loophole and skipped it by marrying a family a friend in 2003 and divorcing him shortly after.

Upon hearing the beautiful supermodel would be making an appearance in the two minute clip, the IDF fired off a letter to the Foreign Ministry, writing:

WOW!

We were purely speculating when we said that with Joy Behar, Elisabeth Hasselbeck and possibly even Barbara Walters leaving The View after this summer, the long-running talk show might be heading toward a reboot when their replacements are inevitably announced!

But in light of recent alleged casting news, we'd say that it definitely seems like that's the direction ABC executives will be taking!

According to network sources, Brooke Shields is in serious discussions to take a spot on the panel alongside leftover Whoopi Goldberg and Sherri Shepherd after the current line-up calls it a day!

Apparently, Barbara herself wants

What? He doesn't want to share any pictures of his cool new cast he got just after his fight with Frank Ocean (above)?

Guess not because we’re being totally cut off from the wonderful world of Chris Brown as he decided to set his Instagram account to private.

We bet we're missing out on some awesome hand x-ray pics right now!

Luckily, right before Breezy decided to reject us all, he clued us into why as he posted the message:
