Just days after it was leaked on Friday, Britney Spears and her femme fatales, Nicki Minaj and Ke$ha, dropped their official remix of "Till the World Ends."

The new version of the song was produced by Dr. Luke and Dream Machine. Brit half-whispers " 'Till the World Ends' remix" before the beat kicks in and Nicki hits her verse hard. She spits fierce lines like, "Sniff, sniff, cries/ I done slayed your whole entire f---ing life."

Then Britney's sex-kitten vocals kick in for the song's first verse. "That's Britney, bitch! I'm Nicki Minaj and that's Ke$ha," the Queens MC declares before K sings the chorus. The beat is harder, the loops are sassier and the song is grimier than the original version, which was the second single from Femme Fatale. The newly added dubstep portion takes the one from "Hold It Against Me" to a new level by adding in bass-heavy synths.

Ke$ha, of course, wrote the track for Britney, and the ladies certainly don't seem to mind sharing the spotlight with each other. The official track isn't much different than the version that leaked over the weekend, though Spears did have something brand-new to share with her fans just as the song dropped on iTunes and streamed on her website.

Spears tweeted the artwork for the single, which features the original press photo of Spears along with separate photos of Nicki on the left and Ke$ha on the right. Spears wrote, "@NickiMinaj @Keshasuxx Too much fierceness for one cover! Thanks for lending your voices girls... #TTWEREMIX — Brit"

Spears and Minaj have been hanging out a lot in the lead-up to their summer tour. They hung out at the Factory nightclub on Friday night after Minaj's show in Los Angeles. Spears later wrote, "Early rehearsal after a late night with my girl @NickiMinaj. Can't WAIT to get out on the road with you."

Scarlett Johansson -- How Do Ya Like Them Apples?

A fully clothed Scarlett Johansson took to the streets of NYC today ... taking a bite of the forbidden  fruit one day after her hacked nude photos spread through the Internet like a bad strain of the bird flu ... glorious, naked bird flu. 

Scarlett's attorney -- legal pit bull Marty Singer -- is already on the offensive to scrub the web of all traces of the pics ... and the FBI is hot on the trail of the guy suspected of jacking the pic.

VMAs Drive Record-Breaking 10 Million Tweets

Beyoncé's pregnancy and Lady Gaga's over-the-top fashion just a few of the Twitter Trends.

Lady Gaga tweeted about her Little Monsters. Kim Kardashian tweeted about Beyoncé's baby-bump secret. Those Twitter updates and millions more made the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards the most tweeted-about awards show ever.

In total, the VMA Pre-Show and main show drove 10 million tweets, according to newly released numbers for the social-networking site.

That awards-show record was just one that the VMAs shattered. Beyoncé set the record for the most mentions on Twitter per second with 8,868, helping make the show the most-watched broadcast in MTV history, pulling in 12.4 million viewers. Pre-show viewership also set a record, and MTV Digital saw its highest VMA day ever on Sunday with show content attracting 2 million unique visitors, an increase of 33 percent year over year.

Twitter helped make it all happen. As the black-carpet pre-show kicked off inside the JW Marriott in downtown Los Angeles, the trend #whatwillgagawear lit up the social-networking site and became one of the longest running of the night. During the show itself, over half of the worldwide Twitter Trends were connected to the VMAs — and at times they took over eight or nine of the top 10 trends. The trends also included shout-outs to Justin Bieber and Joe Jonas, and the two simple statements, #DemiYouAreBeautiful and BEYONCE IS PREGNANT.

All that attention had an added benefit for the pregnant pop star: Her song "Love on Top" leapt into the iTunes top five after she performed it onstage at the Nokia and revealed her baby bump to the world.

The 28th annual MTV Video Music Awards have wrapped, but the real action is just getting started! Stick with MTV News for winners, fashion pics, video and behind-the-scenes stories about everything that went down. Visit VMA.MTV.com for the latest.

Casey Anthony Fined Nearly $100K For Lies Resulting in Caylee Search


A judge just ordered Casey Anthony to pay more than $97,000 in costs associated with investigating her daughter's disappearance back in 2008 - costs that could have been avoided or mitigated were it not for her lies.

Judge Belvin Perry issued the ruling today, and while significant, it represents less than one-fifth of the amount that prosecutors sought.

Casey Anthony has been ordered to pay the following:

C. Anthony

  • $61,505.12 to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement
  • $10,0283.90 to the Metropolitan Bureau of Investigation
  • $25,837.96 to the Orange County Sheriff's Office
  • $50 to the State Attorney's Office.

The costs - $97,676.98 to be precise - were incurred while officials searched for Caylee Marie Anthony, between July 15 and September 29, 2008.

Prosecutors sought more than $500,000 in costs from Anthony, who was acquitted of murder but nailed for four counts of lying to law enforcement.

Perry's order requires Anthony to pay costs associated only with counts of which she was convicted, so she's off the hook in the high-five figures.

Not that $97K is chump change, or that this particular chump won't have issues coming up with it. A judge already declared her indigent in 2010.

Maybe Dr. Phil can help with another donation. You know he'd be game if she agreed to sit down for an all-time ratings grab. Wheels are turning ...
