What's Not!

Mr President - Kanye West announced plans to run for the American presidency in 2020 during his appearance at the MTV Video Music Awards. Let's hope the rapper has forgotten this random idea by the time that year comes round.

Comeback - Justin Bieber's big solo comeback single was leaked on the internet just hours before its radio premiere. The singer had been teasing fans about his first solo release since 2013.
