Lady Gaga debuts 'Edge of Glory,' partners to bring tunes to FarmVille

Lady Gaga on Tuesday premiered "The Edge of Glory," the latest single off her upcoming "Born This Way" album.

Her newest anthem, a tad slower and less electro than "Judas" and "Born This Way," keeps in theme with her '80s- and '90s-sounding tracks thanks to a sax solo from Clarence Clemons of the E Street Band. Listen to it above.

Fans responded to the track immediately, which brought the singer to tears -- in a good way.

"Been crying reading all your beautiful messages for my new song. It means so much to ME," Gaga tweeted.

The song, less shock-provoking than her other recent singles, allows Mother Monster to bare it all about someone she's ready to fall in love with, singing:

There ain't a reason you and me should be alone tonight,
I got a reason that you're who should take me home tonight
I need a man that thinks it's right when it's so wrong tonight
Right on the limits where we know we both belong tonight
It's time to feel the rush
To brush the dangerous
I'm gonna run back to, to the edge with you
Where we can both fall over in love

I'm on the edge of glory
And hanging on a moment of truth
I'm on the edge of glory
And I'm hanging on a moment with you
I'm on the edge

The album "Born This Way" -- which almost feels like it's out already? -- goes on sale May 23. But fans who simply-can't-wait-till-then can travel to "GagaVille," a neighboring farm in the online game FarmVille, to hear three singles from the new album May 17-19. Players who fulfill GagaVille tasks can unlock one song each day. Gaga is the first musician to partner with maker Zynga, which has added music to the game for the first time.

Don't ever say Gaga doesn't think about how to expand her monster-ific fan base: About 46 million people worldwide play FarmVille each month, AP reported. Which means there could be a whole lot of farm monsters out there.

Charlie Sheen going live tonight with 'Sheen's Korner' [Poll]

What's potentially more terrifying than witnessing Charlie Sheen "high on Charlie Sheen"? Consider what could happen when the actor's "Sheen's Korner" streams online live and interactive Tuesday night.

Sheen plans to respond to his "Two and a Half Men" firing and take questions from the digital audience, according to Ustream, where the train wreck pulls out of the station at 7 p.m. PST on the Charlie Sheen channel.

This is one Energizer Bunny who can't seem to come to a full and complete stop -- though those who've had enough now have an option, the Tinted Sheen browser plug-in, that will block all "Winning" Sheen-related online content for those using the Firefox and Chrome Web browsers.

For those with a high tolerance for inappropriate behavior, there is the live episode of "Sheen's Korner."

In the previous "SK," taped on Monday, a gaunt, unwell-looking Charlie made little or no sense -- but pantomimed and smoked quite winningly, including one instance when he inhaled the cigarette smoke through his right nostril and blew the smoke out his mouth.

Hey, what could go wrong?

Don't answer that.

Charlie Sheen: Are we witnessing the crash in 'Sheen's Korner'?

Charlie Sheen has his "Sheen's Korner" webcast in heavy production on UStream, and the results ain't pretty. Actually, things got downright disturbing with the Monday night installment.

Looking gaunt and generally creepy, the actor who was fired from "Two and a Half Men" earlier in the day made only shreds of sense during the brief webcast.

For example: "If you own the home in which you own the trash can, you should never have to empty it ever, ever, ever again."

Recycling recent catch phrases ("Winning!" "Duh!") and acting out the title of his imagined autobiography ("Apocalypse Me: The Jaws of Life -- Everybody Wins!"), Sheen suggested he get paid product-placement sponsorship money, tore at his hair and moved in and out of frame.

If anyone was going to find a way to sink further after wielding a machete and drinking "Tiger Blood" on the Live Nation rooftop in Beverly Hills on Monday, after proclaiming to paparrazzi that he was "free at last," we suppose it was going to be Sheen (see the video below). Nice move from a guy accused of threatening his wife with a knife -- but who are we to judge, right?

There's really no good way to accurately describe what went down on UStream; if you can handle the profanity and apparent insanity, see the video here.

Meanwhile, Fox's "House M.D." got in on the Sheen action Monday night with a scene riffing off "Two and a Half Men," featuring Hugh Laurie in one of those "ugly shirts" and taking on Charlie's bad-boy persona while encouraging lawbreaking and decadence from his girlfriend's young daughter.

Rachel Bilson found her wedding song (yes, it will surprise you)

Rachel Bilson may be dunzo with longtime flame Hayden Christensen, but that doesn't mean a girl can't plan her dream wedding -- like nailing down the perfect song.

Fine, the Ministry may have given you a banana peel to slip on, but we're technically correct. Bilson recently participated in a video tribute to Super Mario Bros., the feisty little Italian heroes celebrating their 25th anniversary. 

"It may be the song I walk down the aisle to one day," Bilson said of the video game's theme song, of which she sings a few bars.

Other celeb well-wishers in the video include an adorable Penn Badgley, and Jane Lynch and Chris Colfer of "Glee." 

"It's been 25 years, and the princess still keeps managing to get herself caught," Colfer says. "It might be time for you and her to start seeing other people."

PREACH IT! Prince declares Internet 'completely over,' Web somehow continues to function

Speaking unto the people the other day, Prince announced that the Internet is "completely over," indicating that the time has come for his loyal subjects to return to the era of the hard copy.

Prince has a new album coming out, see, but don’t look for it on iTunes or such. If the people want to hear Prince’s word delivered unto them, they must venture forth from their huts and villages and pick up a CD. (Fans might be able to find the album online and have it shipped -- U.S. distribution is still being worked out -- but then again, that would involve the Internet. So if you go that route, fine, but expect to be banned from Paisley Park forever.)

"The Internet's like MTV," the 52-year-old legend told the UK's Daily Mirror. "At one time MTV was hip and suddenly it became outdated. Anyway, all these computers and digital gadgets are no good. They just fill your head with numbers and that can't be good for you."

Meet the Trololololo guy -- you'll *never* forget him

Still reeling from YouTube's momentary fail on the original Rickrolling link? It's fixed, we swear, but we're also pleased to report the presence of an understudy waiting in the wings: the Trololololo Guy.

Imagine if Lawrence Welk and the Geico Caveman had a baby. And then the baby lip-synched. '70s style. And then it showed up on Stephen Colbert's show.

Dare you not to watch -- it's the high-speed freeway chase of music videos.

But in case you can't, here's a play-by-play on the performance by singer  Edward Anatolevich Hill, from Nick Douglas over at Urlesque:

The real Kate Walsh likes sea turtles -- and isn't your Facebook friend

Kate Walsh, the former "Grey's Anatomy" star who spun off into "Private Practice," has cautioned fans that she's being impersonated on Facebook, ContactMusic.com reports.

Seems a neighbor got upset when Walsh didn't show up for a dinner date she'd accepted -- via Facebook.

No offense to Kate Walsh the singer on Facebook, or the Kate Walsh on Facebook who's a fan of Freeze Pops, bubble wrap and Red Bull (we think we'd like her, actually).

Hints that this Facebook page might not be a direct connect to the actress? It's not private in any way. It has no posts about Kate. And its only information is a link to a cheesy "Kate Walsh" Web page that's loaded up with Google ads.

Hint that people are suckers? Fake Facebook Kate has more than 8,500 friends!

Just shoot us now, OK?

Back to the real actress, who appeared on David Letterman's show Wednesday night rocking a "futuristic flight attendant" vibe. Hey, we liked the blue dress. But we did expect her to say "buh-bye" to Dave when the interview ended.

Anyway, the real Ms. Walsh does work with the group Oceana on behalf of sea turtles, and after hanging out underwater within inches of one in Hawaii, we think that's cool. (No touching the turtle! Just admiring!)

In today's forecast: Angelina, Hugh, Barack and Bender the Futurama robot

"What's the weather? What to wear? Obama helps you everywhere."

President Obama, Hugh Laurie, Angelina Jolie and Bender the robot from "Futurama" all have side jobs as forecasters and models on www.obama-weather.com.

Not sure what to wear? Check with the president! When it comes to weather, he's a man of few words, but he looks cute in shorts, if the forecast includes L.A.-style weather. He also knows how to rock a hoodie if the weather takes a turn.

Want to keep your weather apolitical? Get your forecast (Hint: It's not lupus) from Hugh Laurie as Dr. Greg House.

Tired of seeing Angelina Jolie take advantage of the world's good weather with all those sexy, safari-appropriate ensembles? This has to be the frumpiest version of her ever.

And it's obviously scientific, because there's a robot! Who doesn't love robots?

The humor site (keep that "humor" thing in mind if you click) runs off Weather.com and defaults to Bay St. Louis, Miss.  And you can expect it to be a little glitchy. Really, who among us can control the weather?

Who runs it? We have no idea, because we can't read Russian -- it's just a little ha-ha for the ayem, kids. To be safe, don't give Hugh Laurie any of your personal info if he asks, OK? You're on your own when it comes to Angelina.
