The week is done, but that doesn't mean the work is. This Oscar weekend, be sure to stay tuned to MTV News, MTV Movies Blog and Hollywood Crush, all of which will be bringing you wall-to-wall coverage of the red carpet, the show, the after parties and everything in between. Meanwhile, keep thinking about who else needs to go home on "American Idol" and be sure to get your submissions in for our big 311 contest.
In between doing all that, check out everything you might have missed on the MTV Newsroom Blog this week, including stories about Justin Bieber, Katy Perry, "The Tonight Show," "Dancing With the Stars" and Ke$ha.
» The top headline of this week belonged to Crystal Bowersox, who was nearly disqualified from "American Idol" after having to go to the hospital. But then she staged one of the greatest musical comebacks of all time.
» The week opened with the end of the 2010 Winter Olympics, and we got an exclusive report from one of the dancers who performed during the closing ceremony. We miss you already, Olympics. See you in London in 2012.
» The new cast of "Dancing With the Stars" was announced this week, and though the producers didn't take any of our advice, they still managed to draft an interesting group of people. Of course, we're rooting for Buzz Aldrin.
» It was a big birthday week, as Ke$ha blew out some candles on a cake.
» Justin Bieber turned 16 years old on Monday, so we laid out the 16 reasons why we love him.
» And because Ke$ha and Bieber share a birthday, we decided to mash the two up.
» "The Tonight Show" came back this week, and as it turns out, Jay Leno is doing the exact same show he's always done.
» While Leno was hosting a show, rival Conan O'Brien was busy on Twitter, a project Pierce Brosnan totally endorses.
» This week saw the debut of "Popology," in which we'll be taking a look at a modern pop classic. We opened with Britney Spears' ...Baby One More Time.
» After hearing that Gavin DeGraw song again on "American Idol," we decided that it needs to lead the list of the show's "retired" tunes.
» Sarah Palin is supposedly shopping around a television show, and because we're extremely helpful, we pitched her five totally workable ideas.
» If anybody at MTV News got elected to the highest office in the country, we would totally invite Jay-Z and Beyoncé over too.
» Guru from Gang Starr is trying to build his health back up, so we took a look back at a classic interview with him and DJ Premier.
» Finally, you owe it to yourself to watch the "Frame by Frame" of OK Go's "This Too Shall Pass" video. The band's clip is great and the stories surrounding it are even greater.
