PopAddict: Jelena splits, ‘Elmo’ voice under investigation

Hello World—Anthony here, yet again, brining you all the stories that had us buzzing this week.

Kicking things off this week we must take a moment to bow our heads in remembrance of the relationship that was Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez.

Yep, everyone’s favorite 18-year-old pop star and the former Disney star have called it quits according to multiple sources.

I’m guessing Gomez got tired of babysitting Bieber, who is two years her junior. She had to show him to the door.

Neither party has chosen to comment on the breakup, but Bieber did pull a sly move by playing an acoustic version of Justin Timberlake’s “Cry Me a River.” THE SHADE.

My guess is that ‘Jelena’ (Is that what we were calling them?) will stay apart for a few months while Justin whores around a bit and sows his wild oats.

Selena will continue to make low budget movies that no one sees, and the couple will eventually reunite.

Speaking of children, my childhood has officially been ruined.

Kevin Clash, the voice of Sesame Street character Elmo, was revealed to have been under investigation for having sex with an underage boy. Jesus take the wheel.

It was later revealed that the boy in question was actually of age when he began to have relations with Elmo. But the whole situation is going to make me take a second look at Sesame Street.

I always thought there was something a little strange about a place where six-foot tall pigeons walk around and a monster who is cracked out on cookies is your friend.

Moving on from thirsty puppets to thirsty celebrities, the world stood still last week when the queen herself, Beyoncé, joined Instagram.

In true Beyoncé fashion, the singer let everyone know who she voted for by posting a photo on the social network with herself wearing a “Texans for Obama” t-shirt.

Shortly after networks announced the president had won re-election, the outspoken Obama supporter followed her first photo with one of a piece of notebook paper bearing a simple, all-caps message written in blue Sharpie.

“TAKE THAT MITCHES.”

Looks like somebody’s lobbying to sing at another inauguration.

As always tune into Pop Addict next week to see if some of your favorite celebrities were acting up.
