Comedian Chelsea Handler and host of Chelsea Lately is set to host this year’s Video Music Awards!

MTV announced on Wednesday raunchy funny lady Chelsea Handler 35, will emcee the VMAs live from Los Angeles on September 12.

“Everyone knows that when you think of rap music and hip-hop you think of Chelsea Lately,” Handler joked on Wednesday’s Chelsea Lately. “And that’s why I will be hosting them.”

Kanye West is also scheduled to perform at the show. Last year he infamously interrupted and humiliated Taylor Swift by saying Beyonce should have won the award.

Other big performers of the night will be Justin Bieber, Ne-Yo, Trey Songz, Nicki Minaj and Selena Gomez.

Lady Gaga has the lead in nominations this year. She is up for 13 awards. Eminem is in 2nd with 8 nominations.

Do you think Chelsea Handler will make a good host? Should Kanye West be allowed to perform after the way he treated Taylor Swift last year? What’s your opinion?

Kim and Kourtney Kardashian are reportedly engaged in a bit of a competition with each other’s weight. Before Kourtney lost all of her baby weight, Kim was the top dog for having a curvy figure with a gigantic butt.

Now that Kourtney is looking good, Kim’s said to be insecure about her body. And now, they’ve gotten pretty competitive about the weight war.

A source said, “They are always looking at each other’s body and picking it apart. She always makes fun of Kim’s ‘lumps,’ meaning her cellulite.”

In Touch Weekly reports:

According to a Kardashian confidante, it’s a battle that’s been raging between the two women since childhood. With Khloé, 26, considerably younger and always a bit bigger than her two sisters, Kourtney and Kim engaged in fierce competition as teenagers over who had the hottest, slimmest body — and who got the most attention from boys. Of course, now it isn’t just dates the girls are fighting over — it’s money, fame and airtime. Although Kim used to be far and away the most famous Kardashian sister, she’s seen Kourtney get more attention over her new baby and her tumultuous relationship with her boyfriend, Scott Disick. And now that’s she’s lost the baby weight, Kourtney seems to be taking Kim’s place as the hottest star of Keeping Up With the Kardashians. “Kim isn’t about to give up her throne without a fight,” says another family friend. Dressing up, hitting clubs — and working hard to slim down — Kim is determined to take back the lead role in her famous family.

Sharon Murphy is pretty ticked off by some internet reports suggesting that she had sex with her daughter’s husband after she passed away.

TMZ reported yesterday that the coroner’s office claimed that Sharon pointed to Simon Monjack’s bed and referred to one side as hers. Now, she’s disturbed that people put two and two together and come up with four.

TMZ has more:

In a statement, Sharon says, “I am very disturbed that the L.A. Coroners [sic] office continues to release things to the media that are misleading.”

She continues, “The TMZ story with it’s [sic] salacious headline suggesting that my prescious [sic] son-in-law Simon and I slept in bed together, infering [sic] sexual contact is journalism at its lowest.” Sharon also denies there were medications in the house prescribed to a “Sharon Monjack,” as the Coroner’s report states.

It could’ve been completely innocent, right? Or perhaps she was just lonely and sad? Maybe she wanted to take solace with the only person she felt could understand the pain she was suffering. What do you think?
