Guy Sells Engagement Ring On Craigslist—For $1!
What do you do when an engagement goes sour? If you're one anonymous guy in Iowa, you put the ring up for sale on Craigslist, for a dollar. According to the post, which has since been removed by the author (most likely due to the high volume of interest):
"A jeweler and I designed the ring in 2009 for an amazing woman. She wore it during our engagement, an engagement that we ended a bit ago with great regret. A grad student, I know I should be selling it so as to buy groceries and fill the laundromat washing machine with quarters. Like most students I'm living pretty hand-to-mouth. Yet there's something about treating this token of deep love like a used car that feels wrong, feels like a violation of everything beautiful about the world that drew this woman and I together in the first place. I joyfully put my pennies away for months so she could wear this. Knowing that a lot of us are struggling to pay the bills right now, I'm hoping that the gift of this ring might make it easier for another couple to begin a life together."
Here's hoping this guy finds true love with someone new. [Racked]

Drake Thinks JoJo 'Killed It' On 'Marvin's Room' Remix
'It meant a lot coming from him,' JoJo tells MTV News on VMA black carpet about Drizzy's response.

LOS ANGELES — JoJo has certainly grown up somewhere between releasing "Leave (Get Out)" back in 2004 as a 14-year-old and her very NSFW remix of Drake's "Marvin's Room."
As soon as JoJo dropped the sultry, sassy track, redubbed "Marvin's Room (Can't Do Better)," earlier this summer, blogs and music lovers went crazy over her mature voice and even more mature lyrical content. In the song, she coos lines like "F--- that new girl that you like so bad/ She's not crazy like me, I bet you like that."
Much like the Drizzy version, JoJo's version is a swirling ode to drunk dialing that special someone, and the longing of the track seemed to resonate with folks — which is the most surprising part to JoJo, considering she drops a few F-bombs.
"I was shocked!" she told MTV News on Sunday night on the VMA black carpet about the overwhelmingly positive reaction to the remix.
So how did she end up recording her answer to Drake's track? "Well, one of my friends was like, 'Jo, you gotta hear this new Drake song!' I loved it, and I thought Drake was really emotional and honest," she explained. "I was like, 'This a great record,' so I had a little time in the car ride [on my way to the airport]. So I wrote my version in the car ride, and I landed in L.A., I went to the studio, I recorded it, and the next day I put it on the Internet, and people really, really loved it. And I was totally shocked, 'cause I was scared to use the F-word, and I didn't know how people would respond to it."
The track, produced by Jordan Gatsby and featuring vocals from Travis Garland, is not only fan-approved, but also approved by the Canadian rapper himself.
"He said I killed it and that he was really happy with everyone's response," she said of Drake's reaction. "It meant a lot coming from him. It was all out of respect."

Ed O'Neill Receives Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame
One of television's most famous curmudgeonly husbands, Ed O'Neill, received the 2,446th star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame Tuesday -- and he was feted by both of his famous sitcom wives.
The Emmy-nominated actor, 65, stood arm-in-arm with his current primetime wife, Sofia Vergara, and his small-screen spouse of more than 10 years, Katey Sagal. And both actresses took to the podium to celebrate (and roast!) their friend and fictional husband.
"I want to tell Eddie he's one lucky mo-fo. Here he has these two beautiful women that he's had in his life. Hopefully he'll be able to have this one as long as he had me," said Sagal, 57, who played the bouffant-topped Peggy to O'Neill's Al Bundy on Married With Children. "It's rare that you get to spend 11 years with someone -- longer than you go to school, really -- and Ed and I have remained friends throughout the years."
Vergara, 39, who plays his much-younger Colombian wife Gloria on ABC's award-winning comedy Modern Family, recounted her girlhood memories of watching her costar on TV.
"When I was in Colombia and a young very beautiful girl, I would watch Married With Children and see Ed sitting with his hand in his pants and talking in this very sexy Antonio Banderas accent, because in Colombia it was dubbed into Spanish," Vergara said. "I would never in a million years have though that I would grow up to marry Al Bundy... But to marry Al Bundy has been one of the most joyful things in my life."

Sebastian Bach's Home Destroyed by Hurricane Irene
Rocker Sebastian Bach is publicly grieving the loss of his New Jersey home due to flooding and damage caused by Hurricane Irene. The former Skid Row frontman Twittered, "I am numb, in shock, & devastated to report that my home of 21 years, my house featured on MTV Cribs, has been destroyed, condemned, & deemed uninhabitable due to the extreme flooding courtesy of Hurricane Irene"
Bach, 43, was on the road in Colorado performing with fellow hard-rockers Twisted Sister, Godsmack, and Fuel when Hurricane Irene swept across the East Coast. When Bach returned home on Sunday to Red Bank, N.J., he discovered a bridge adjacent to his property had broken and slammed into his home, "knocking the house off of its foundation" and completely flooding the basement and first level.
In an emotional post to fans on his Facebook page, Bach explains that he lost valuable KISS memorabilia and one-of-a-kind Skid Row master tapes, videos, concerts, press clippings, and artwork that he can never replace. His New Jersey mansion, where he raised three children with his ex-wife, also housed his entire vinyl collection, including LPs that belong to his late father, the Canadian artist David Bierk.
"I will always love New Jersey but now there is literally nothing left for me here except memories of a past life," he wrote of his hometown of 20-plus years. He announced that he is relocating to Los Angeles: "Hello, New Life. Here I Am. It's time for a new start. Like I have a choice."

'Arrested Development' Alum Judy Greer Joins 'Two and a Half Men'
Ashton Kutcher isn't the only new face coming to Two and a Half Men! New reports say actress Judy Greer will play Kutcher's ex-wife on on the upcoming season of the CBS hit.
The Arrested Development alum (she played the hilarious character Kitty Sanchez, who was George Bluth Sr.'s assistant/mistress) has been cast as the former wife of Kutcher's depressed character Walden Schmidt, EW.com reports. You could say the entire new plot line has her to blame.
In the new season (CBS, Mondays, 9 p.m. ET, starting Sept. 19), we meet Schmidt, an Internet billionaire who buys the recently deceased Charlie Harper's (Charlie Sheen) beach house. He's emotionally distraught over the breakup of his marriage to Greer, so he begs Alan (Jon Cryer) and Jake (Angus T. Jones) to keep living in the house... with him.
Although there are no specifics about Greer's new recurring character, she will likely pop up at least as often as Alan's on-screen ex (Marin Hinkle), in about every other episode. The show will be somewhat familiar territory for Greer, 36, who played a minor character named Myra (who naturally slept with the womanizing Charlie) in two Men episodes back in 2007. Of course, it's possible her new character will have no connection to that two-episode arc.
Greer is a primetime comedy veteran. In addition to playing the boobs-flashing Kitty, she voices the hypersexual secretary Cheryl on FX's adult animated comedy Archer, starred in CBS' short-lived comedy Mad Love last season, and has appeared on more than two dozen shows in the past 14 years. Movie fans will also recognize her from her memorable supporting roles in 27 Dresses, 13 Going on 30, Love and Other Drugs and The Village.

You're Wasting Water By Shaving Your Legs, Ladies
Who is to blame for Mother Earth's metastasizing environmental crisis? Women, of course. Are we tossing out too many sanitary napkins? Drinking too many lattes in cardboard cups? Well, yes, but this is more serious. Us ladies are "wasting" billions of liters of water every year leaving the water running while we shave our legs. According to a survey by the UK water company Thames Water, a third of women leave the water running while we shave our legs in the shower, which amounts to enough "wasted" water every year to supply London with acqua for 25 days.

Wiz Khalifa, Amber Rose Discuss Marriage 'All The Time'
'When the time comes, it's gonna come,' Rose tells MTV News on VMA Pre-Show black carpet.

Is wedding planning on the busy itineraries of Wiz Khalifa and Amber Rose? The hip-hop power couple has never been shy when it comes to public displays of affection, and apparently they aren't timid about discussing marriage, either.
"We discuss it all the time; like he said, we're very much in love," Rose told MTV News while standing next to her "Black and Yellow" rapper beau on the VMA Pre-Show black carpet. "But, ya know, we're just going to take our time and just enjoy each other right now. We're both really busy and we work really hard and when the time comes, it's gonna come."
Besides working on some music and a film with her man, Rose said having a baby with Wiz is also on her agenda. The former Ford model and ex-girlfriend of Kanye West recently admitted to Global Grind that she's eager to procreate with the Pittsburgh rapper. "I want to be a mom really bad. I really want babies," she told the website. "I'll be 28 in October, and my maternal instinct is ready."
In March, Wiz appeared on MTV News' "RapFix Live," and Amber Rose joined him on the couch for a portion of the interview. Rose revealed what attracted her to the Best New Artist nominee.
"He's really funny, he's really charming," she said. "I didn't know much about his music at first and, obviously, he became a good friend. I started listening to his music. He's awesome, he's talented. He's amazing."

Chris Brown's High-Flying VMA Set: Behind The Scenes
'Yeah 3X' singer's choreographers Rich and Tone talk to MTV News about pulling out 'tricks' like levitation on Sunday.

On Sunday night, Chris Brown nearly stole the show during his high-flying VMA performance, and considering everything that went down during the 2011 Video Music Awards, that's saying a lot.
Find out how Beyoncé and Jay-Z Celebrated Their VMA Baby News!
Brown, decked out in all white, danced to a medley of old favorites from acts like Wu-Tang Clan and Nirvana, as well as his own tracks "Yeah 3X" and "Beautiful People." The performance was packed with tight dance moves — including some ninja-style moves — and finished with Brown flying over the A-list crowd on nearly invisible wires. While hanging high above the room, the singer displayed moves that looked as acrobatic as a Cirque Du Soleil performer.
We spotted Kanye West, Lady Gaga, Britney Spears and more hanging out backstage!
Days before Brown took the stage, MTV News caught up with two members of his creative team, choreographers Tone and Rich. The pair had promised that Brown would take the game to the next level at this year's VMAs, and he certainly delivered on that.
"We've been working with Chris for many years; I've never seen him this way on this performance ever," Tone teased last week. "He's pulling out all his tricks on this one. He's definitely gonna show you something fresh and new; something he has never done before."
Go Behind the Scenes with Wiz Khalifa, Kreayshawn, more at VMA Pre-Show
He went on to add that while Brown always steps up his performance game, Sunday night would be unlike previous shows. "All the past performances he always came with it 100 percent, but this one, for some reason he has something special about this one," Tone said.
"He's going to create so much centrifugal force, there might be some levitation going on," Rich teased.
And although it was unclear what exactly Rich meant by that prediction a few days ago, now Brown's fans know he wasn't exaggerating.

Matthew Fox Accused of Assaulting Female Bus Driver
Matthew Fox is not doing so hot in Cleveland. The Lost and Party of Five actor found himself in handcuffs this weekend after allegedly assaulting a 29-year-old female bus driver in the Ohio city.
According to the police report, the victim says that Fox approached her around 1 a.m. on Sunday, seeking a ride back to his hotel. When he tried to board the private party bus that she was driving, the woman informed him that the bus was rented and she couldn't give him a ride. The actor tried to come on board anyway, so she got up from the driver's seat to block his way.
That's when Fox, 45, "punched her in the chest and stomach area," according to the victim's statement. She retaliated by punching him in the mouth, "causing a cut on his lip." She told police that she was worried her hand had been broken during the punch. Another man who witnessed the fight says that he intervened to help the bus driver.
Fox was detained but not arrested, and no charges have been pressed. TMZ reports that the fight took place outside of a bar, and the police report classifies the incident as "alcohol-related" -- though it doesn't say specifically if Fox had been drinking.
The actor is in Cleveland filming the movie adaptation of James Patterson's I, Alex Cross, in which he plays a serial killer.

The Formula For An Amazing News Item: Whitney Houston, A Monkey And Toe Sucking
Every so often a news item comes along that defies all reason and exceeds all expectations of news greatness. Today, I found one such story. The headline reads: "Whitney Houston Once Got Intimate With Michael Jackson's Pet Monkey Bubbles." What does that mean exactly? It means that David Gest (that weird looking fellow who was married to Liza Minnelli) made some interesting claims during his interview for the upcoming Michael Jackson documentary. "Whitney was having dinner with Michael at his Neverland home when she accidentally dropped her knife under the table. While Michael was retrieving it for her, Whitney felt her toes being sucked. She moaned, 'Michael, is that you? Don't stop. That's so sensual.' Yet Michael's head popped up and her toes were still being sucked. It turned out it was Bubbles," he recalled. And there you have it. Questions, comments, concerns? Above, the breakdown of what makes this news item truly amazing. [ONTD]
Kim Kardashian's 'Jam' Video Leaks Online
Leaked portion finds newly married reality star flaunting her famous assets.

There are a few things Kim Kardashian is known for: her near-ubiquitous reality TV presence, her recent lavish wedding to basketball player Kris Humphries ... and for the rest, you just need to watch the first 54 seconds of the upcoming video for her debut single, "Jam (Turn It Up)."
The opening of the Hype Williams-directed clip showed up on Perez Hilton's site on Monday, and it's pretty much what you might expect. The first image you see is Kardashian lying on the floor covered in sweat, or oil, as her name scrolls by in giant pink neon letters that fill the frame.
Once the thumping disco beat produced by The-Dream kicks in, we are treated to an up-close-and-personal shot of the other thing Kardashian is best known for: her rear. As she crawls across the wet floor, the camera zooms in on Kardashian's assets, sheathed in barely-there pink leather booty shorts. The beat keeps pumping as Kardashian slithers toward a giant spinning exhaust fan.
Her face and hair dripping with greasy moisture, Kardashian mouths, "Turn me up, turn me up, turn me, turn me, turn me up," while nearly subliminal still images of her tongue rolling over heavily made-up red lips pulse on the screen. And those are pretty much the only lyrics we hear, accompanied by more images of a dewy Kim K. rolling around on the floor and touching her hair.
Near the end of the clip she explains, "I'm goin' out tonight/ It's going down/ Headed straight to the front of the line," while conveniently rolling onto her back to give us a peek down her barely hanging-on dirty wifebeater to show off her other most famous lady parts. Kardashian debuted the song back in March on Ryan Seacrest's radio show, while also tweeting out some stills from the shoot, but she has not yet announced when her debut album will be released.

'Hunger Games' VMA Teaser 'Epic,' Experts Say
Fan sites say Jennifer Lawrence 'captured Katniss onscreen.'
By Kara Warner, with reporting by Eric Ditzian

Ever since production began on "The Hunger Games," fans around the world have been waiting patiently for a first look at footage of heroine Katniss Everdeen in action. MTV News was very happy to provide that first-ever teaser, which star Jennifer Lawrence introduced to the world during the MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday night.
Given the excitement surrounding our exclusive look at footage of the big-screen adaptation of Suzanne Collins' beloved dystopian bestseller, MTV News sought out three "Hunger Games" experts to get their reactions to seeing Katniss' survival skills first-hand.
"That was epic," gushed Samus Belle of fan site Sparks Will Fly. "I'm so excited. Especially seeing Jennifer Lawrence running through the whole arena, she looked like a hunter," Belle said. "She just captured Katniss onscreen."
Kimmy West, of Mockingjay.net agreed with Belle on Lawrence's spot-on portrayal: "Jennifer Lawrence is just embodying Katniss," West said. "The big trait about Katniss is that she's animalistic when she hunts. You can totally tell that she's been training so much for that shot," West explained of seeing Lawrence wield a bow and fire an arrow in the clip. "She really looks like a pro."
Our experts were so delighted to see Lawrence assume pole position in the teaser, they didn't mind not getting to see male leads Peeta (Josh Hutcherson) and Gale (Liam Hemsworth) in action. Hemsworth's voice can be heard throughout the footage, however, offering Katniss words of encouragement that echo in her mind as she's running for her life.
"I think they maybe want to wait a little bit longer on [showing] Peeta to build up the excitement even more," said Arianna Ruiz of Down With the Capitol. "And Gale is still a very important part of Katniss' life."
"Basically, [Gale] is saying, 'You know how to hunt,' 'All they want is a good show,' 'Show them how good you are,' " West said, summarizing the voiceover. "I feel like it's a really good message to send across for the trailer because it's showing she's not a career tribute," she explained of the story's highly trained expert contestants. "She's not someone who wants to kill anyone; she's just wants to live after this."
Belle speculated about when fan favorite Peeta might appear in the film's marketing campaign: "I'm a Peeta fan, but I think they will put him somewhere during the trailers because half the 'Hunger Games' fandom probably wants him in there at some point.
"In all fairness, throughout the first part of the games, she is thinking mostly about Gale and the advice he gave her."
West added that although she is just as excited as anyone to see Peeta, she's happy for certain elements to remain a surprise for as long as possible.
"I like to be in anticipation still; I don't want to see everything," she explained. "I'm excited to see Effie and Haymitch and Primm and Peeta," West said of her favorite characters. "But I think it's good I'm still waiting for it."
Speaking of waiting for things, West thinks director Gary Ross and Lionsgate added a special bonus for fans to pick up on at the very end of the footage.
"Right as you see the 'Add us on Facebook' stuff, and the screen turns black, and you can hear four really high-pitched whistles, kind of like if you're not listening hard, you might miss it," she explained of a character's memorable communicative methods with Katniss in the book. "That's really awesome. I was wondering what tune they were going to use, and it sounds really perfect for what I was thinking."

Kelly Rowland Talks Beyonce's Pregnancy
Stepping out in style as she arrived for an evening of top-notch musical entertainment, Kelly Rowland was spotted at the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards and House of Hype's after party in Los Angeles, California last night (August 28).
Hitting the all-new black carpet, the "Motivation" songstress strutted her stuff in a super-sexy low-cut black and gold number - as the dress was a showstopper while offering both sheer and feathered accents set off by platform peep-toe pumps.
Celebrating the latest rendition of the annual affair, Kelly continued her night at SLS Hotel while joining a slew of other celebs in a strapless blue-frock.
Meanwhile, Miss Rowland has opened up about her good gal pal Beyonce's just announced pregnancy - offering nothing but kind words for her former fellow Destiny's Child group member.
"She takes so many traits from her mother, and I just think it's going to be so natural for her. It's natural for her now!," she told Us weekly, adding, "I think she'll be an incredible mother, because she's always been motherly."

Lady Gaga MTV VMA 2011 Performance Video
Lady Gaga’s MTV VMA 2011 performance (video below) was a bit like a rejected scene from West Side Story–but it worked. She didn’t come out in a shiny, epic costume. Instead, she took on the persona of a character from You And I. Then came the weirdness… Let’s be honest. The opening of the VMAs fell a little flat. The melodramatic opening was kicked off by Gaga and her slicked back, greaser look. She ranted for what felt like twenty minutes from the perspective of a bitter boyfriend, who was jealous that his girl was getting all the attention. I was wondering how she could pull off a different performance, something unexpected and memorable. Well, she did. Finally, the music started, the smoke cleared, and Gaga’s voice rang through the PA system. She pulled off an inspiring, emotional performance, and it is clear that she puts everything she has into her music and performances. I will say that the performance did nothing to quell the jokers out there, who say she has man parts – if you know what I mean. The girl has cojones and is definitely a force to be reckoned with. Definitely the right choice to kick [...]

'Hunger Games' Director Unpacks VMA Footage
Gary Ross says Jennifer Lawrence will help him give viewers the same 'visceral experience' as the books.
By Eric Ditzian

While the "Hunger Games" sneak peek lit up the MTV Video Music Awards, on Sunday, director Gary Ross was back in North Carolina, his head space not so much occupied with Lady Gaga in drag and Lil Wayne's long dreads as it was with Katniss Everdeen and the dystopian nation called Panem.
Ross is still in the midst of shooting his adaptation of "The Hunger Games," but last week, with the teaser set to debut at the VMAs, he took the time to touch base with MTV News via Skype to give us his exclusive commentary about the footage.
Katniss Vision
Suzanne Collins' novel is a first-person tale, and it's clear from the teaser Ross is striving to capture that same sort of immediate access into Katniss' head. "I think one of the most important things when you adapt a book like this is to give people the experience they really had when they read it — the same kind of visceral experience they had," he explained. "I think [the reason] everybody felt so strongly in what Suzanne did was that they were with this character, they understood her, they were in her shoes, they were in her head. It was such an intense first-person experience. My job in making a film is first and foremost to reflect that.
"How do we get inside Katniss' head? How do we feel what she's feeling? How do we become her?" Ross continued. "The first thing that allows you to do that is Jennifer Lawrence, because she's such an unbelievable actor. She has so much depth and power and talent and sophistication and sensitivity and subtlety that she's become Katniss Everdeen synonymously. I hope people feel about Jen and Katniss at the end of this three-book cycle the way they feel about Daniel Radcliffe and Harry Potter — that they've become very synonymous with one another."
Get "Hunger Games" experts' analysis of the teaser.
Gale's Voiceover
That voiceover you hear during the trailer? That's Katniss' District 12 pal Gale Hawthorne (Liam Hemsworth). And Ross has a very specific idea in mind about the importance of making Gale a part of this initial footage (and not Katniss' Hunger Games companion, Peeta Mellark).
"As everyone knows, Gale is an enormous part of Katniss' life, but he's not as big a part of the first book as he is the subsequent books," the director told us. "I think he's very, very present and he's tremendously important, but of course we shift into the Capitol and then the arena, where Peeta ends up playing a more prominent role. But he's in her head, he's in her life, he's something that echoes with her throughout the games, as any reader of the book knows, so he plays an obviously prominent role."
The Difficulty of the Shoot
Though Ross and his team didn't have to contend with giant fireballs in the woods, as Katniss does in the first book, the filmmaker revealed that the set in the North Carolina forest posed quite a challenge to the production. "This was like shooting in Vietnam," he said. "I felt like I was making 'Apocalypse Now.' The thing was so rigorous. We spent something like six weeks outside in the jungle every day, hiking up and down mountains with cameras and in the mud and in driving rain storms. We all felt it, but nobody felt it as much as Jen did. It's been an intense physical experience for her."
Just Getting Started
While Ross was proud to show off this initial footage, he told us this is only the beginning and that there are a few scenes and characters in particular that he can't wait for people to see in the future. "We're still shooting, so unfortunately, it's just a teaser," he said. "We could only give you a little bit, because we're still down here making the movie. I've got to leave in half an hour and shoot. But there's a lot of things to come that I think are going to be hugely epic and very emotional and incredibly powerful. I think that we've done wonderful things with the mutts. I think that we've done a tremendous job bringing the Capitol to life, and I think that's going to be really, really exciting for people to see. And all the performances! Wait till you see Stanley Tucci do Caesar Flickerman."

Lil Wayne Pulls Out Rock-Star Flair For VMA Show-Closer

Lil Wayne closes out a hectic week that included a skateboarding mishap and a Jay-Z dis by proving he's just as much rock star as he is rap star. Weezy F. closed out the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards with a scorching performance of his hits "How to Love" and "John."
"You know, he always comes different: One day he's a rock star, one day he's a skater; he's singing R&B. I think we can expect a little bit of everything in this performance," Weezy's musical director Gil Smith told MTV News last week.
He wasn't kidding.
YMCMB wunderkind Drake introduced Weezy, who kicked off his performance singing his hit rap ballad "How to Love," with Auto-tune effects added to his microphone. Backed by a live band, Lil Tunechi eased down the stage sporting a black top hat, snug-fitting animal prints pants, a white V-neck T-shirt and red Vans.
After showing off his vocal chops and finishing the first verse of "How to Love," Weezy then took off the hat and shirt, put back on his sunglasses, and after uttering, "Ladies and gentleman, my name is Lil Wayne," screamed and launched into "John." The band replaced the original instrumental with the familiar groove of Black Sabbath's "Iron Man," giving the performance a decidedly hard-rock turn as the rapper hyperactively jumped around the stage.
After kicking his verse for "John," which features Rick Ross, Weezy ran into the crowd and greeted Rozay. Back onstage, he picked up a white and black guitar and told the crowd to put their hands in the air (along with plenty of expletives) and played a few notes, before removing the instrument and slamming it to the stage.
With Jay-Z and Beyoncé clearly beaming about expecting their first child, and the Throne setting the stage on fire earlier in the night, many couldn't help but wonder if Weezy would lob any shots at Jay.
But that was not to happen, as Weezy ended his set by returning to the mic one final time to say, "Young moolah, baby," before tossing the mic stand to the floor. Although Weezy was up for awards in a pair of categories — Best Hip-Hop Video for "6 Foot, 7 Foot" and Best Collaboration for his part on Chris Brown's "Look at Me Now" — he didn't earn a Moonman this year.
As a consolation, Weezy should sleep well knowing his new Tha Carter IV album dropped at midnight via digital retailers and the physical CD is hitting shelves later Monday morning (August 29).

Beyonce's Sexy "1+1" Music Video!
Superstar Beyonce released the music video for her new ballad "1+1" on Aug. 25 -- just days before she's scheduled to perform at Sunday's MTV VMAs.
Directed by Beyonce herself, with a little help from Laurent Briet and Ed Burke, the sensual video shows the glittering pop star, 29, staring into the camera and pleading with her man to make love to her. At one point, the emotion becomes so intense that tears begin rolling down her cheeks.
"If I ain't got nothin', I got you," she belts.
Beyonce is known for busting out her impressive dance moves in her more uptempo videos -- such as the now-iconic "Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It)" video. And after the defiant battle cry of "Run the World (Girls)," the earlier single from her new album 4, a vulnerable and pleading Beyonce was not what the public expected. But with "1+1," the Grammy winner slows things down and shows her range as a performer.
Watch Beyonce perform live at the 28th annual MTV Video Music Awards, airing live Sunday, Aug. 28, at 9 p.m. ET.
