Get it while it’s hot! The extended music video for Beyonce’s latest single, “Video Phone,” debuted this morning at 12:01AM. Enjoy lots of slithering and shaking by B in a variety of belly-baring ensembles, as well as a cameo chair dance by a svelte Lady Gaga in a white leotard. We can’t think of a better way to kick off your Tuesday.

We’ve got it - your first look at Beyonce’s new video for “Video Phone,” featuring Lady Gaga. Watch the 30 seconds of goodness above, and then check VH1.com tonight at midnight for the world premiere of the entire video.

Calling all wannabe DJs! Do you want to work with Will.i.am on the official remix of LMFAO’s electro hit “La La La”? A few weeks ago, we told you to enter the Pepsi Refresh Studio to create a mix and one of our favorites to come from that is embedded above.  Below, watch the music video for “La La La” after the jump, then enter the Refresh Studio here.

You mean a sex tape doesn’t bond you for life?!?! During a recent interview, Ray J was asked about his past romances with Kim Kardashian and Whitney Houston. Ray J had all kind things to say about the singer, gushing about how they are still friends, but of Kim he simply referred to her as that “other girl.” Burn!

If you’re a bedroom DJ who wants to take it to the next level, try working your magic on LMFAO’s club banger “La La La” in Pepsi’s Refresh Studio. Will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas will review submissions and pick his favorite to create one official remix. One of our favorite remixes so far is by ENZ, a duo combining funky keys and fearless vocals. Think you can top it? Enter the Refresh Studio here.

Stevie Wonder sure can class up a joint. As the only man allowed on the VH1 Divas stage last night, Wonder complemented the gorgeous Jennifer Hudson during their duet of “All In Love Is Fair.” This is one of our favorite duets of the night and cemented Hudson’s status as a diva and a legend in the making — not everyone can hold their own with Stevie and she proved herself more than capable. The soulful song played out in stark contrast to some of the other duets, like the Sheryl Crow-Miley Cyrus performance. We think it was the benchmark for elegance last night.

As the youngest Diva of the night (she’s only 16!), Miley Cyrus was in some pretty incredible company. She even did a duet of “If It Makes You Happy” with Sheryl Crow, and later tweeted “it was the best moment of my entire life.” While many a Miley fan loved her VH1 Divas performances, we noticed some pretty rough comments in our Live Divas Blog Party and some media outlets are questioning not only her diva status but whether her outfits were too racy for her age. (Our two cents: She looked phenomenal and held her own during the show.)

So what’s the problem, people? Is it that she’s too young to have paid her dues? We suppose rough reviews are all part of being an Official Diva. But watch her performance and look at her red carpet photos, then tell us: Does Miley warrant the criticism?

Besides regular performance challenges, Miley Cyrus has her fatigue to overcome when she sings tonight. Miley dished backstage that she is on two hours sleep and is at the point where “everything is really funny.” If anyone can pull it off, we are sure Miss Miley has what it takes!

Check out Diva Jordin Sparks hanging out backstage before her big performance. Jordin considers being labeled a “Diva” phenomenal and let us in on a little Diva camaraderie where the Divas share information and she is “always learning tricks from girls I admire.”

Jennifer Hudson has proven her Diva status a hundred times over, with her Oscar winning performance in Dreamgirls and  her powerhouse voice, but still, humble Jennifer can’t believe, “I’m here and one of the Divas.”

With a five-week-old baby, Jennifer says her world has changed and she now “…sees everything through brand new eyes.” WE certainly can’t wait to SEE her performance tonight!

Confession: We just recently hopped on the Jordin Sparks bandwagon after we heard “Battlefield” earlier this summer and then danced around Brooklyn for a month with it blasting on our iPod. Her latest single “S.O.S” is catchy and addictive (it samples that early ’80s classic “Let the Music Play” by Shannon), in that ‘I wanna get down to this all night on repeat’ sorta way. We’re hooked. Anyone wanna have a dance-off?

We just caught  the Idol winner’s rehearsal here at BAM and she rocked it. The girl’s got pipes, and she knows how to use ‘em. Not to mention, she’s completely adorable. We told you we were on the J-Sparks bandwagon! Check out a sneak peak of Jordin rehearsing this morning, workin’ it way before noon. No Diva hours for her! She’s a total professional.
