Photo: Neozoon Hear Me Roar! Art has always been used to make people think about a variety of issues, from un-subtle propaganda posters to great literary novels that make us see the world through the eyes of people very different from us. Somewhere in between those extremes lies Neozoon, a European collective of street artists that has decided to use discarded fur coats to make a point about how we related to and treat animals. See below for many more photos of their very cool “fur graffitis”…. Read the full story on TreeHugger

On Thursday’s Lopez Tonight on TBS, during a segment featuring photographs of public figures wearing similar clothing called “Who Wore it Better?” comedian George Lopez cracked that Sarah Palin was “an evil egomaniac that might destroy the world” as an image of her was shown next to a picture of North Korean dictator Kim Jong Il. Guest and fashion guru Tim Gunn took part in the segment as the two poked fun at Palin’s outfit supposedly resembling that of the communist despot. Lopez joked, “For people who don’t know, one is an evil egomaniac that might destroy the world, and the other one is Kim Jong Il,” inspiring Gunn to respond, “I love you for that.” Below is a transcript of the relevant portion of the Thursday, September 16, Lopez Tonight on TBS: GEORGE LOPEZ: Let’s take a look at the next one. Who do you think wore this jacket- TIM GUNN, FASHION GURU: Well. LOPEZ: -Sarah Palin or Kim Jong Il? GUNN: I vote for Kim Jong Il. And I fully suspect that Sarah Palin got that jacket when she was in North Korea going to the North Korean H&M. So, Kim Jong Il. LOPEZ: For people who don’t know, one is an evil egomaniac that might destroy the world, and the other one is Kim Jong Il. GUNN: I love you for that.

‘I can’t believe she hasn’t even put out a record yet and she’s still Nicki Minaj!’ Perry tells MTV News. By Jocelyn Vena, with reporting by Audrey Kim Katy Perry and Nicki Minaj at the 2010 VMAs Photo: Kevin Winter/Getty Images Katy Perry and Nicki Minaj presented the Best Male Video award together at the VMAs , and it was evident that the two fun-loving pop stars shared a kinship. Their love of colorful costumes and fun music make it easy for fans to understand why they might get along, and Perry explained just what she loves about the Young Money princess. “I think Nicki Minaj is the truth,” she told MTV News at her alma mater, Santa Barbara, California’s Dos Pueblos high school, where she performed Tuesday night. “I think she is amazing, and I love her sense of style. I love her beautiful figure. It’s hot.” But it’s about more than just the aesthetic. She thinks Nicki has that certain “it” factor. “I like her whole attitude. She’s so funny and a chameleon, and you really don’t know exactly what you’re going to get from her, but you know it’s going to be entertaining at every corner,” she said. “She’s really fun. She belongs in this world. I’m very excited for her record. I can’t believe she hasn’t even put out a record yet and she’s still Nicki Minaj! It’s amazing.” When talking about fellow pop stars like Lady Gaga , Perry pointed out that the “over-the-top” aesthetic only works if the performer also has a “spine.” “Some people that are just like, ‘Look at me, I have something on my face or head’ — I don’t want to be specific because I don’t even know what I’m trying to say — they’re just not following through,” she said. “I like all that theatrical stuff, but at the end of the day, I like to strip it all off and sit down with my guitar and write a song.” Like Perry, Nicki hopes that her music can tell a story and resonate with people. “This album is my heart and soul,” the rapper said about Pink Friday, which arrives in November. “This is me explaining every single relationship that I’ve ever been in and explaining it in a way that every woman in this world can understand it.” Share your thoughts on Nicki Minaj in the comments! The Moonmen have all been handed out and the stars have gone home, but there’s plenty of MTV Video Music Awards news, interviews, behind-the-scenes scoop, party reports and more still to come, so keep it locked on MTVNews.com.

Image from Aquatina Let’s face it; sometimes a person needs a bottle of water. In your handbag, briefcase, while hiking, or for a thirsty child. Here’s one answer. Called Aquatina , its inventor claims that it is the world’s first collapsible pocket water bottle. Challenged by his mother to find an alternative to carrying big bottles of water on hikes, after a long road, it was first seen on the Dragon’s Den t.v. show. Now, two years later,

From Rihanna’s coy reaction to Drake’s ‘Fancy’ set to Katy Perry’s toast, we revisit our favorite split-second moments. By Jim Cantiello Katy Perry sitting next to Rihanna, asking for a refill at the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards Photo: MTV News From Kanye West’s bright red suit to Lady Gaga’s plumed Mohawk, the 2010 Video Music Awards gave viewers plenty to look at. But there were also plenty of blink-and-you-missed-it moments worth revisiting. Here are some of our faves. Jane Lynch’s Surprise! The VMA stage was especially massive this year, with platforms extending and wrapping around the orchestra section of the Nokia Theatre at L.A. Live. So you can’t really blame “Glee” ‘s Jane Lynch for not noticing Rihanna’s surprise entrance happening directly behind her. By the time Lynch realized where Ri’s voice was coming from, she delivered a reaction shot that screamed over-the-top shock and unbridled joy. Who knew Sue Sylvester was such a diehard Rihanna fan?! Rihanna Flips Her Hair at Drake! Speaking of Rihanna, the Bajan beauty had a playful response to Drake’s VMA debut: a sassy “well, isn’t he fancy?” hair flip. Chelsea

Photo via Fulton County Republicans Who would have thought that two years after the definitive election of a president who counted addressing climate change and instituting a forward-looking energy policy among his top priorities, the state of climate politics would be more miserable than ever. The failure to pass clean energy and climate legislation, with the prospects of doing so anytime in the near future looking bleak, would be bad enough. But it only gets worse — emboldened by the death of the Senate bill and riding on a wave of anti-regulatory, anti-government sentiment,… Read the full story on TreeHugger

Bikes are for Everyone While in some parts of the world (Copenhagen, Amsterdam), cycling is the most normal thing in the world for both sexes, other places have had more problems making women feel like cycling might be for them. Thankfully, this is gradually starting to change in many places, and I’m hoping that a virtuous cycle will take place; if women start seeing lots of women on bikes instead of just a bunch of guys, it’ll increase the chances that they’ll think “hey, maybe I should try it”. Our friends at StreetFilms went out in NYC and talked to many wom… Read the full story on TreeHugger
