The Best, Worst and Weirdest of the Week

Best Beyoncé Remix of the Week: DJ Mustard's. At this point, no one can stop the DJ Mustard-fication of music. He's taking over and we're just enjoying the ride. His surprising switch-up of Beyoncé's "7/11" manages to turn the already club-ready song into an even hotter banger. -- Gabby Bess


Best Repurposing of a Gaming Innovation That Was Originally Total Bullshit of the Week: Robot Chicken animator Dillon Markey's Bluetooth-assisted Nintendo Power Glove. It's also this week's best excuse to revisit the Angry Video Game Nerd's Power Glove episode -- surely one of the funniest things on the Internet. -- James Rickman


Best Award Acceptance Speech of the Week: Jenny Slate's for her Best Comedic Actress win in Obvious Child at the Critic's Choice Awards. Her heartfelt speech championed reproductive rights and women's stories, asserting that "activism and creative expression can go together." You go girl. -- GB

Best Excuse to Do a Shot Every Time Someone Uses Illness as a Metaphor of the Week: It's Susan Sontag's birthday. She would have been 82 today. We miss you. -- JR


Most Compelling Reason 2 Chainz Should be President of the Week: This debate. In case you missed how 2 Chainz calmly destroyed Nancy Grace in a debate about pot legalization (or you just want to see it again for the 100th time), HERE YOU GO. You're welcome. -- GB

Best Peer Pressure of the Week: Taylor Swift's on Lorde. Reportedly, Taylor Swift convinced her 18-year-old bestie to sip on some rum and coke by simply saying, "Rum is so good!" File to: more proof that Taylor Swift is a very powerful cult leader. -- GB

Best Dressed of the Week: Amal Clooney's hands. Two words: THOSE GLOVES. -- GB

Best Future BFFs of the Week: Solange Knowles and Miranda July.
 

Real talk. I used to live next door to @Miranda_July & left creepy "let's be friends" note on her door once. Cant wait to read her new book!
