In news that will be celebrated by those who dislike LMFAO, and disappoint those who believe nothing could be more outrageous and hilarious than wearing zebra-print pants, the duo has decided to take an indefinite hiatus, during which they’ll work separately.

Have you heard about the devout Christian lady from Zaragoza, Spain who tried to restore and retouch a church fresco of Jesus, and accidentally made it look like “a crayon sketch of a very hairy monkey in an ill-fitting tunic”? Since botched restorations are the hottest thing going in the art community, let’s breathe some new life into these emotionless, sterile album covers.

LMFAO have made a career out of referencing their own junk. When they’re not actually rapping about their dicks, they’re wiggling them around, or holding phallic objects at their groins, displaying maturity at a sub-human level. We thought that SkyBlu’s 26th birthday was occasion enough to recall some of LMFAO’s genital-referencing lines. Happy Birthday, SkyBlu!

We could have watched it on TV, but we thought it would be better to give you some coverage from the front-lines, and let you know what the MMVAs are like behind all the smoke and mirrors. Thanks to a sweet hookup from a friend who works in the area, Pop Hunter staked out a spot on a nearby rooftop, and enjoyed a bird’s eye view of the MMVAs madness. Excuse the occasional blurry photo — camera phones are extremely difficult to operate when your heart is beating exorbitantly fast in the presence of the Bieber.

Welcome back to The Parody OD, a monthly roundup of YouTube’s burgeoning pop parodists! This time around, we see what the “Weird” Als of the digital generation have on LMFAO’s ubiquitous hit, “Sexy and I Know It.” How do you parody a group that pretty much parodies itself?

Last night, Much Music announced the nominees for the 2012 Much Music Video Awards, shining a light on Vancouver angst-pop band Marianas Trench, who logged 7 nominations. Both Hedley and Drake trailed the Trench with 5 nominations, while the Bieber-affiliated Carly Rae Jepsen and douche-rockers Down With Webster nabbed 4 nominations each. Justin Bieber scored a pair of nominations for his “Boyfriend” video, and Toronto Polaris-core rockers Fucked Up even earned a nomination for MuchLOUD Rock Video Of The Year.

It’s Mother’s Day on Sunday (don’t forget to buy flowers!), so we thought we’d post some of the most adorable photos of pop stars with their mothers we could find, including Jay-Z, Katy Perry, Ke$ha, Rihanna, Justin Bieber, and more. Enjoy, and happy early Mother’s Day to all the lovely moms out there.
