England LOOOOVES Nicki!!!!!

Nicki Minaj's latest single Starships is ALREADY #5 on the charts in the UK, which is a big deal because the last female rapper to reach the top five was Missy Elliott and her song 4 My People!

If things keep heading in the right direction, Nicki's new single will most likely set a record as the "highest charting single by a female rapper on the UK charts!" WOW!

This is all VERY impressive…especially since her new album Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded doesn't even come out until April 3rd!

We're excited for U, Nicki! Sounds like 2012 should be a super bass year for ya!!!!!

They've been in battle for this title since their respective premieres, but it looks like The Avengers has gone in for the win - at least, for now!

The action movie's trailer (above) has surpassed The Dark Knight Rises' as the most downloaded of all-time on the Apple website, with 13.7 within the first full day!

The upcoming Batman flick had previously been in the lead, with 12.5 million, and before that, it had been The Avengers' original clip that started it all, with 10 million!

All right, Christopher Nolan - it's your move!

Let's get a new trailer out and see if you can leap-frog over Joss Whedon!

Which flick are U more excited to see?! The Avengers or The Dark Knight Rises?!

Now, you understand — this song has been available since 2010. As in, two years ago! And people are STILL downloading it. And what's more, they are PAYING to download it.

It's good to be Katy Perry. (well, career wise anyway.)

As of this week, Katy's smash E.T. (featuring Kanye West) tops the 5 million mark in digital sales, making it her fourth 5-million-seller behind Firework, California Gurls, and Hot N Cold. She stands as the only artist EVER to accomplish this feat, with Lady GaGa hot on her heels with three singles and the Black Eyed Peas and Flo Rida, both with two each.

There aren't any words! This is just … OUTSTANDING! We're extraordinarily proud of you, gurl! You worked hard and you created incredible music and you deserve all the accolades that come along with it!
