After canceling her show in Paris over the weekend due to stormy weather, Lady Gaga showed her little monsters some love on the streets of the City of Light. Gaga, dressed in a beige, low-cut Victorian-style gown and sporting a beehive and John Lennon-esque sunglasses, emerged on the streets of Paris on Monday to greet screaming fans.

The singer posed for pictures, and one fan even got close enough to touch the singer. In a series of photos, the fan, dressed in a white parka and beige knit hat, scarf and gloves, stopped the singer for a hug before accidentally touching Gaga's breast. The grope took place as the singer was walking away from the encounter.

Gaga has been abroad for a slew of dates on her never-ending Monster Ball Tour. She joined Semi Precious Weapons onstage for one of their club gigs in London. She even gave a sneak preview of her forthcoming Born This Way album, which is set for release in early 2011.

"Want to hear 'You and I'? This one is going to be on Born This Way. It's one of my favorites. The album doesn't have a bunch of rock ballads or anything, but this is one of them," she told the crowd at a show in London.

"Now, I don't know if you know this, but for those of you who don't know, I write all my own music. Every single lyric, melody and note was created by me. I am not manufactured. I'm a bad cat and coming for you 'cause I believe in you and I. It's not that I don't like to be humble, it's just that pop music has a pretty bad rap," Gaga explained.

Doutzen Kroes posed for a sexy shoot

Doutzen Kroes

Looking ever-so-sexy, Doutzen Kroes posed for a sexy shoot for Canada's Flare magazine prior to the emergence of her burgeoning baby bump. While she's currently in the midst of her first pregnancy, the Victoria's Secret beauty donned numerous stylish ensembles including a drool-invoking leopard print bodysuit as photographers captured each and every moment. In the interview accompanying the spread, Miss Kroes talked about how she goes against the mold for models with her curvier, fuller body. She said: "I was told to lose weight in the beginning. I could be considered really skinny by some women in the country, but I think I am one of the [models] who is very close to representing a body more people can relate to. It's important that we are aware of what kind of message we are putting out. There are girls who are eight or 10 years old who are watching what they are eating! I wasn't even thinking about those things at that age. I was eating all the candy I could get my hands on!"

What If A '16 and Pregnant' Teen Chose Abortion?

What If A '16 and Pregnant' Teen Chose Abortion?

Throughout three seasons of MTV's 16 and Pregnant, teens grapple with unplanned pregnancy in one of two ways. They either decide to raise the baby, or they give the baby up for adoption. None of them go with that unnamed third option: aborting the baby.

That just changed. In a special episode called "No Easy Decision" (December 28, 11:30 p.m. ET), MTV's cameras follow 19-year-old Markai Durham (of 16 and Pregnant, Season 3) as she decides to abort her second baby.

Just last month, viewers tagged along during Durham's first experience with unplanned pregnancy. An African-American girl on a show usually devoted to lighter-skinned teens, Durham was sassy and headstrong, but admittedly unconcerned about practicing safe sex. She smiled limply and shook her head when her mother asked about it. "Condoms be all in the way, pretty much," said James, her white, dreadlocked, cheating boyfriend (whose speech was so mumbled that MTV had to use subtitles).

Like Teen Mom's Amber Portwood, Durham stirred up controversy when MTV aired footage of her slapping James during an argument. (Unlike Portwood's situation, the police didn't investigate the incident.) With this special episode, Durham's bringing the network more publicity. Just months after she delivered their daughter, Za'Karia, she (and James) conceived again. "I thought I was on birth-control," she wrote on her Facebook page. "I don't blame anyone but myself for it though. I should have educated MYSELF on the medicine that would be transferred into my OWN BODY."

Durham felt that abortion was the right way to handle this second pregnancy. "I still did what was BEST," she wrote. "I'm a 19 year old with a one year old with only a high school diploma with a 20 year old wonderful man with only a high school diploma."

Naturally, pro-life groups and bloggers disagree, and several have weighed in with their disapproval. (Here's one entry by blogger Jill Stanek, who calls Durham "depressingly ignorant about fetal development.")

Sadly, there is no bright side to the abortion quandary, and there never will be. As Durham herself wrote, "One thing we can all agree on is no one is pro-abortion! (no one with a heart at least)." But sadder still is MTV's choice of Durham to tell this story. Talk about not learning from your mistakes! Somehow, the very real hardships of an unplanned pregnancy (and teen motherhood) failed to deter this girl from getting pregnant again mere months after the delivery. Now we're expected to nod along sympathetically as she struggles with the politically charged, ethical dilemma of abortion? It's frustrating to watch such a hapless soul struggle with such a momentous choice.

But then, there are no obvious answers in this debate. Even for a smarter girl, this would be "no easy decision."

Do you agree with Markai's choice to let cameras capture her decision to abort? Chime in below.

Mary J. Blige Dishes On Her 'Crazy' Led Zeppelin Covers

'I've listened to their music since I was a child,' says the R&B diva, who recorded 'Stairway to Heaven' and 'Whole Lotta Love.'

You wouldn't peg Mary J Blige as the black-light-and-tapestry sort, but, as has become readily apparent in recent weeks, she absolutely loves Led Zeppelin.

In early February, reports began circulating that Blige had re-recorded Zeppelin's classic "Stairway to Heaven," working with Travis Barker, "American Idol" judge Randy Jackson and guitarist Steve Vai on the track, which is slated to appear on the international reissue of her Stronger With Each Tear album, due Monday.

But after she had recorded "Stairway," Blige continued to get the Led out, covering another Zeppelin classic — the thunderous "Whole Lotta Love" — for the album too. And when MTV News caught up with her on the Essence Black Women in Hollywood red carpet, she told us all about channeling her inner Robert Plant for the tracks, a process that came much easier than you'd probably imagine.

"I did Led Zeppelin's 'Stairway to Heaven' and 'Whole Lotta Love' — it's crazy," she said. "I am a Led Zeppelin fan. I'm not going to say I've been to their concerts, but I've listened to their music since I was a child, and it's always moved me, especially 'Stairway to Heaven,' and 'Whole Lotta Love' is just fun."

Blige also said she recorded another new song — a "club record" called "I Can't Wait" — for the re-release. And while it's only slated to hit shelves outside the U.S., she hopes her fans will get a chance to hear all the new songs pretty soon.

"I want y'all to hear it," she laughed.
