Get ready for Bangerz and Sheezus to collide this August because Lily Allen will be joining Miley Cyrus on tour for seven shows in the US. Then in September, Allen will kick off her own tour in Miami. The combination of these two quirkly ladies should definitely make for a good show. [Billboard]
Katy Perry is being sued by a group of singers who claim she stole the beat of “Dark Horse” from an award winning gospel song called “Joyful Noise.” The group claims that Perry has ruined the song and tarnished the religious reputation of the music. They are suing for damages and want her to pay up. There has been no statement from Perry regarding the lawsuit. [TMZ]
After Nicki Minaj's acceptance speech at the BET Awards, Nicki went on Twitter to state all of the facts and address the rumored shade she threw at Iggy Azalea.

Then she tweeted, "I've congratulated Iggy on the success of Fancy, publicly. She should be very proud of that. All the women nominated should b proud." So the verdict is in. Nicki did not throw shade at Iggy so everyone can move on now. [Twitter][mtvn_player content_uri="mgid:uma:video:mtv.com:944942" width="512" height="288"]
