Did you miss last night's MTV Video Music Awards? You're not alone. I generally purposely try to miss the broadcast, but for whatever reason, I actually tuned in this year - via torrent, of course, which means I got to skip over the seemingly endless ad breaks. Here are the 10 moments that people are talking about/will make you seem totally "on it" around the water cooler at work.
Beyoncé. Everything Beyoncé.

Suri Cruise just got her first pet, a chihuahua called Honey, a few weeks ago, but there's already trouble in paradise because the dog is missing. She took the pup to a friend's house over the weekend, where he promptly left through the front gate, collar-free. Now Katie Holmes is offering $1,000 for the pup's return, though I wouldn't hold my breath for that.
From TMZ:
Sources close to the situation tell us ... Suri and her mom, Katie Holmes, took Honey to a friend's house in Beverly Hills S...
The ALS Ice Bucket Challenge is getting old at this point - too many people throwing water over their heads for attention without actually giving back. The celebrities involved, however, seem to be making actual donations, and Leonardo DiCaprio has gone and outdone the lot, because he's not only done the challenge, but he donated $100,000 to the cause.
As Leo wrote on his Facebook page accompanying the video:
“Hello from Lake Athabasca, we're here learning about the Canadian tar sands. We...
Now that Sofia Vergara and Joe Manganiello are the new "It Couple" on the Hollywood scene, you'd have thought they'd be keen to strut their stuff down the red carpet at last night's Emmys, right? Wrong. Joe didn't turn up, but there's a perfectly good explanation for that.
From People:
"He's really hot. That's why I didn't bring him," the Modern Family star joked to E!'s Giuliana Rancic. "He looks too hot, too tall, he takes a lot of space, and I was like, 'So listen, Joe, don't come.' "
Ha. I wonder why he really wasn't there? I have to say, I d...
Last night's Emmy Awards were pretty awful from start the finish, as per usual, but there were some highlights. One of the biggest of those was the In Memoriam to Robin Williams, which was presented by his longtime friend and colleague, Billy Crystal. It was moving, funny and not overwrought, which is always a danger in awards show tributes.
You can watch the full thing below - it's clear that so many loved, admired and will greatly miss Robin Williams.

Zooey Deschanel has a new boyfriend, guys. His name is Jacob Pechenik, and he's the director of one of her upcoming films, Rock the Kasbah. Aw, ain't that sweet? I don't really check on Zooey like that so I have no real opinion on this, but they look happy enough, so uh, rock on (no pun intended).

Chris Brown was hosting a pre-VMAs party at 1Oak club in Los Angeles on Saturday night when what should happen but Suge Knight, founder of Def Row Records, was shot repeatedly. He'll live, but Chris was majorly bummed and his mellow vibes were harshed by the incident. I mean, after all, he's our nation's peacekeeper.
It's disappointing that we as a society can't have fun or enjoy ourselves without any altercations sometimes. Miss me with the bullshit!!!— Chris Brown (@chrisbr...
You probably remember Richard Attenborough, brother of wildlife documentary narrator David Attenborough, from his role in Jurassic Park. Of course, that's far from all he's ever done, but it is his most popular role, without a doubt. Unfortunately, Richard passed away over the weekend at the age of 90.
From TMZ:
Lord Richard Attenborough -- the English actor who made dinosaurs come to life in "Jurassic Park" -- has died after years of poor health.
Attenborough was one of England's leading...
Miley Cyrus was planning on taking her Bangerz tour over to the Dominican Republic, but it turns out the city of Santo Domingo doesn't want her there and have banned the show from happening.
From The Buenos Aires Herald:
Through a letter delivered to the companies in charge of the event, the local government argued Cyrus performances “go against the country’s moral and customs.”
According to the commission, the singer also “performs with unsuitable costumes,” and uses “language and images which encourage sex and violence.”
In addition, they accused C...
Oh snap! Here's something you probably weren't expecting: apparently Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson hit a rough patch in their relationship and split up for a full month earlier this year. Don't worry, things are back the way they should be now - they're together and very much in love, it was just rocky for a while.
From In Touch Weekly:
In Touch has exclusively learned that the couple, married for 26 years, temporarily split for a month.
“They hit a rough patch. They were leading separa...
Poor Pat O'Brien. The former Access Hollywood host has so little to talk about in his new memoir, I'll Be Right Back After This, that he's used a "story" about Angelina Jolie being horny in an elevator to try and sell copies. Wasn't that just Angelina Jolie's thing in the '90s? Sorry, not gonna make me buy it.
From The Daily Mail:
Pat opens up about the incident, which he claims took place in the lift of posh Beverly Hills hotel L’Ermitage, in his new memoir I’ll Be Right Back After This.
He appare...
Obviously I'm all for free-will, but this is a case where I wish forced sterilization was a thing. You see, Chris Brown has jokingly suggested that he wants to have a baby with his Rihanna knock-off girlfriend Karrueche Tran since she's been "putting up with [his] shit for 5 years" and is his "#WCW" - that's "woman crush Wednesday", for those of you who don't use Instagram. Chris posted a photo of Karrueche for #WCW this week and in his caption, mentioned that the couple "need to have this baby and stop playin". Yes, please stop playi...
